Chapter 269: The Judgement Value Is Too High
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Don’t worry, Little Aunt. I will take good care of Wen Xin. Let’s have a meal together another day.”
Mu Chengxi spoke politely, but his innate arrogance did not diminish in the slightest. He would only restrain his radiance when he spoke to Wen Xin.
Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi left Lapor’s room. In the elevator, Wen Xin pressed Chengxi against the elevator’s wall. Her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly.” Did you invite Monchitov?”
He lowered his head to look at Wen Xin’s unhappy expression. He raised his eyebrows slightly and lowered his head to kiss her red lips. “I seem to have done something bad again?”
“It’s not a bad thing, but it’s a little troublesome. The judges of this piano competition are too powerful, and the value is too high.”
Wen Xin had no choice but to call Lapor to Ice City. Now that Monchitov had joined them, the National Pianist Association also paid special attention to this matter. If anyone won this award, they would definitely be recruited by the National Pianist Association. This was not what Wen Xin wanted.
She just wanted to live a low-key life and avenge her parents. She was too high-profile now, and she didn’t like it.
“The next time you do something like this, please discuss it with me.” Wen Xin gently bumped her head against Mu Chengxi’s shoulder, speaking softly.
Mu Chengxi smiled happily as he pulled her into his arms.” Alright, I’ll definitely discuss it with you first next time.”
Wen Xin got into his car. Mu Chengxi turned his head to look at Wen Xin. “You didn’t eat anything tonight. Do you want to eat anything else?”
“I want to eat corn. Let’s go buy roasted corn.” Wen Xin suddenly missed the taste of roasted corn in the countryside, but wondered if it was available in the city.
“Roasted corn?” Such a thing had never appeared in Mu Chengxi’s life. He had no concept of such things.
“Are you talking about cheese corn? Or what? Do we have to go to a Western restaurant to buy this?”
Mu Chengxi’s mind was filled with confusion. He could not understand what she wanted to eat.
” No, it’s the whole corn. It’s roasted, not the corn. It has nothing to do with cheese!”
Wen Xin looked at his confused expression and smiled faintly. She could understand. It was normal for a noble young master not to have eaten such things.
“Where can I buy that thing you mentioned?”
“I don’t know. There should be some on the roadside near the square. I’ll drive over and take a look…’
Wen Xin wasn’t sure if there were any roasted corn on sale at this time. The last time she had roasted corn was in February.
Geng Qiu had already woken up in the hospital. She didn’t jump into the water on purpose, but someone accidentally knocked her down.
“Qiu Qiu, are you alright? How do you feel?”
“I’m fine, Mom. Didn’t Brother Yuzheng come to see me after I fell into the river?”
Geng Qiu propped herself up and sat up. She looked around at the people looking at her with concern but did not see Zhao Yuzheng and the Zhao family.
“Qiuqiu, why are you still concerned about whether Zhao Yuzheng is here? When he left with his mother, he was obviously a mother’s boy. It’s better not to have such a man!”
Feng Ling had always been an outspoken girl. She considered herself to be Geng Qiu’s best friend. In the past, she had always stood up for Geng Qiu. This time, she did not hold back and spoke her mind.
“What nonsense are you talking about? How can you say that about my brother Yuzheng? Get out, get out, I don’t want to see you!” Geng Qiu suddenly jumped down from the bed excitedly and pushed Feng Ling out of the ward. She could not accept the fact that Zhao Yuzheng did not want her.
Feng Ling looked at Geng Qiu, who was suddenly agitated. She was at a loss. She stood where she was.” Qiu Qiu, I…” We’re friends, that’s why I’m saying this. He’s not worth it at all!”
“Get out of here. I don’t want to hear you say whether he’s worth it or not. I like him, so he’s worth it. Get out. I don’t want to see you!”
Geng Jie was already on the verge of a breakdown when she saw Zhao Yuzheng and Yan Yan leaving together.
She had expected Zhao Yuzheng to protect her as he did before, but she never thought that this time, instead of protecting her, Zhao Yuzheng, like the others, would cast a scornful look at her.
“Student Feng, Qiuqiu is a little agitated now. You can go out first. I’ll get the driver to send you back!”
Geng Shicheng spoke at this time. He seemed frightened by Geng Qiu’s agitated emotions. In her impression, Geng Qiu had always been gentle and cute. As an uncle, he rarely saw this Geng Qiu!
Geng Shicheng gently pushed the frightened Feng Ling out of the ward and gently patted her shoulder. “Student Feng, you are Geng Qiu’s best friend.
When I was the school’s dean, I knew that you two were the best friends. So, I have to trouble you to keep Qiuqiu’s secret today. She was also framed, so she was so emotional. Don’t take it to heart.”
“Uncle Geng, isn’t it too fake to say that she was framed at this time? In the past, I was willing to believe that Wen Xin was the one who had set Geng Qiu up, but today’s matter has nothing to do with Wen Xin. It’s just that she isn’t Master Lapore’s disciple.”
“I finally saw her true colors today. She’s too vain. I was wrong about her in the past. Uncle Geng, don’t worry. I won’t say anything about what happened today, but I’m no longer friends with her. Goodbye, Uncle Geng.”
Feng Ling turned to leave after she finished speaking. Geng Shicheng’s eyes narrowed. He was considering whether he should use extreme methods to make Feng Ling shut up obediently so as not to cause trouble for Geng Qiu.
Geng Qiu laid on the bed and sobbed non-stop. Su Li sat at the side with a dark face and said nothing.
She couldn’t tolerate Geng Qiu being bullied like this, and she couldn’t let Tan Xingyue stay in Ice City any longer.
“Shikui, stay here and accompany Qiuqiu. I’ll go out for a while…” Suddenly, Su Li stood up, picked up her handbag, and prepared to leave.
“Stop, you’re not allowed to go anywhere! You can’t blame anyone for this!”
Geng Shikui had been silent ever since he was pushed into the ward by the nurse. He was thinking about the things that had happened over the past few days. He felt that all the bad things that had happened to them had started after Wen Xin was kicked out of the house.
“Don’t go and find trouble with Wen Xin. We can’t afford to offend her!”
Geng Shikui didn’t want to acknowledge this, but he had to admit it. Although he couldn’t link everything to Wen Xin, everything seemed related to her. Even the Liang family knew Wen Xin.. Could it be that everything was so coincidental?
