Chapter 419 - 419: Ninth Master, Who Do You Think Is Better, Ye Beisheng or Su Wanyun?
When they came to the banquet today, they heard that Huo Xiting would bring his wife along. Everyone was still guessing who the 9th master’s wife was, but they didn’t expect to see the rumored ignorant and country bumpkin, Ye Beisheng.
“Miss Su is right. Ye Beisheng doesn’t have a good reputation now. Although the Ye family has let her down, she wasn’t raised according to the standards of a socialite.’
“Yeah, because of Ye Beishengs reputation, Ninth master doesn’t want this marriage to be made public. Otherwise, why hasn’t there been any news from the outside world?”
Huo Xiting narrowed his eyes.
She was clearly the one who did not want to announce this engagement.
However, their words reminded him that if Mrs. Huo was unwilling to make it public, he could just add fuel to the fire.
“Huh?” Ye Beisheng raised her eyebrows. “What rumors did Ms. Su hear that requires you to help me clear it?”
Su Wanyun bit her lower lip. “This…”
“Isn’t it just some rumors about you being ignorant?” The woman beside Su Wanyun sneered.
“You didn’t grow up in the upper class like us, so it’s inevitable that you’re a little tacky. Sister Wanyun is also doing this for your own good. She knows that others say that you don’t know music, so she wants to help you clear your name.”
“l see. Then I should thank Miss Su?” Ye Beisheng nodded.
“Beisheng, you’re Xiings wife and I’m his good brother. It’s only right that I help you.” Su Wanyun said helplessly.
Lin Yafeng sneered. “You’ve said so much. Wan Yun has already given you the opportunity, but Miss Ye doesn’t cherish it. No wonder she couldn’t even enter the finals back then. Wanyun, I think you shouldn’t worry about this kind of person…”
“Mister Lin, don’t say that. Beisheng must be talented…”
If Ye Beisheng did not perform now, not only would she look down on Mr. Lin, but she would also be letting down Miss Su l s good intentions.
Ye Beisheng chuckled. “Alright then.”
Su Wanyun smiled.
Ye Beisheng slowly walked to the piano. “But I didn’t even make it to the finals. Besides, everyone knows that I’ve been very busy these past two years and didn’t have time to play the piano at all. Therefore, my performance level is still at the same level as two years ago. I hope Compositor Lin won’t compare me to the champion and criticize me for being useless.”
Lin Yafengs smile grew wider and wider. “Miss Ye, please go ahead and perform. I’m a professional judge. I’ll naturally look at it with a professional eye.
What he meant was that no matter how well you played, he would criticize her with a ‘professional’ eye!
After all, Ye Beisheng was no match for Su Wanyun!
Su Wanyun couldn’t help but feel smug. If she knew about this banquet, everyone would only know that she, Ye Beisheng, was ‘not as skillful as others’!
Mrs. Huo? How could she be Mrs. Huo if she was inferior to Su Wanyun in everything?!
Ye Beisheng did not hesitate. She sat in front of the piano and pondered for a moment. Then, she placed her fingers on the keyboard and pressed the first note.
The entire place instantly fell silent!
The music was gentle, like the bright moon in a quiet hometown. It was warm and quiet, but there was a faint sadness.
Someone in the audience was surprised.
“Yes, it’s very good. Miss Ye hasn’t played for two years. It’s incredible that she could play this well!”
“Unfortunately, it seems to be a little inferior to Niiss Su l s song just now…”
Su Wanyun was playing a lively piano piece. It was naturally more exciting than what Ye Beishen was playing now.
Lin Yafeng frowned, his tone full of disdain. “Although it’s not bad, it’s only at this level. It’s understandable that Miss Ye didn’t enter the finals.’
“Mr. Lin, Beishengs skills are good enough. Although she’s not worthy of your attention, she’s not as bad as the rumors say, is she?” Su Wanyun’s smile grew wider.
After she finished speaking, she blushed and pretended to be calm. She asked shyly, “Xi….. Ninth master, what do you think? What do you think of
Beishengs performance?”
Huo Xiting tapped his fingertips lightly on the table..
