197: Chapter 197 It’s Xiao Ran’s Turn

Xiao Ran's trigeminal nerve was throbbing.

'Alright! Another one's gone crazy!'

Helpless, he could only continue, "Murong Qing, late affection is cheaper than grass, you should understand."

"But...Fei Yu Ge Ge..."

"Shh...don't speak! What's more, I genuinely don't fancy you; you act like you're all that. Don't flatter yourself! What kind of girlfriend can't I find?" Xiao Ran ruthlessly belittled her.

"Also, I'll reiterate! On the day of the concert, I was just a coward, afraid of death, and didn't dare to save you, which is why I left you there. You don't need to defend me; I am just that kind of person!"

"No! I don't believe it!" Murong Qing shook her head repeatedly.

She didn't believe it!

He wasn't that kind of person!

"Sorry! Student Murong Qing, please stop making trouble. Please switch seats with my girlfriend! Thank you!" Xiao Ran said mercilessly.

[+10]

Gaining lifespan truly felt great!

"Fei Yu Ge Ge...don't..."

"Don't cling to me; I'm afraid Wenxue will misunderstand, thank you!"

Xiao Ran said no more, directly got up and went to Zhang Wenxue's side, preparing to use her as a shield.

Zhang Wenxue didn't know the specifics, only seeing Murong Qing and Li Feiyu pulling and tugging just now.

"Fei Yu, what's wrong with Miss Murong?"

"Nothing, she insists that I get back together with her!"

"Huh?" Zhang Wenxue's eyes widened.

Is this Murong Qing that bold?

Her 'girlfriend' was right there watching, and she dared to pull a cuckolding stunt!

"How about it, do you want to go up and argue with her? You're my official girlfriend now, you know!" Xiao Ran looked at her with a smile.

Zhang Wenxue simply rolled her eyes at him.

What official girlfriend, it was clearly a pretense.

"But...we're not..."

"Hmm?" Xiao Ran glared at her.

Want to just take the money and not do the job?

There's no such good deal!

"I'm not asking you to fight her. Just help me reason with her, and put some pressure on her so she'll back off!" Xiao Ran said grumpily.

Zhang Wenxue breathed a sigh of relief, patting her chest: "That's good!"

"Li Feiyu! What's wrong with A Qing?" Murong Lan asked curiously.

She was now once bitten, twice shy, not daring to jump to conclusions anymore.

Even seeing her younger sister crying with her head down, she didn't immediately accuse Li Feiyu.

Xiao Ran glanced at her: "You ask her yourself, lest you two start scolding me again later."

"Uh..."

Murong Lan was choked for a moment and stopped asking, getting up and going to Murong Qing's side.

"A Qing, what's wrong?"

"Wuwuwu! Sis! Fei Yu Ge Ge doesn't want me anymore!"

Murong Lan: "..."

Why did that sentence feel so familiar?

Heaven spares no one, the Dao of Heaven is a good cycle!

Her sister actually experienced the same as her?

Is this what Twins are?

The Sisters leaned on each other, comforting one another.

In a seat not far away.

Zhuang Wensheng, seeing Xiao Ran make Murong Qing cry, almost crushed his fists.

Although he wasn't a simp, he didn't want to see the woman he fancied being made to cry by another man!

He really wanted to go up and teach Li Feiyu a lesson, but his arrogant nature wouldn't allow him to make such a move.

"Hmph! Li Feiyu! After today, I hope you can still smile." Zhuang Wensheng's lips curled... "Next, let's welcome the contestant from Donghai City, Li Feiyu!"

It was finally Xiao Ran's turn.

"Fei Yu! Go for it!" Zhang Wenxue punched the air to cheer him on.

"Watch my performance!" Xiao Ran winked at her.

Since going on stage required passing by Murong Qing, she also made a cheering gesture towards Xiao Ran, and at the same time said in a gentle tone:

"Fei Yu Ge Ge! Go for it! You must defeat Zhuang Wensheng! The championship definitely belongs to us!"

Xiao Ran was not moved by this, he nodded expressionlessly: "Thank you!"

Murong Qing's face immediately fell, her pretty face filled with disappointment.

Could she really not win back Fei Yu Ge Ge?

"If..."

She looked towards Zhang Wenxue, her eyes flickering slightly, not knowing what she was thinking.

Xiao Ran strode confidently, with an extraordinary demeanor, slowly walking onto the stage.

"Clap clap clap~~" A round of applause erupted.

"Hmph! Clown!" Zhuang Wensheng below the stage scoffed.

He was determined to win this championship; no one could stop him!

Xiao Ran didn't bother with any fancy moves and directly sat down at the piano.

The last time he played the piano was the last time.

His expression was serious, his gaze slightly focused, and he lightly stretched his finger joints.

He chose "Für Elise"!

A very simple and refreshing piece, but it was more than enough.

Then, his fingertips moved slightly, and the first note sounded.

"Dong..."

The melody was light and quick, gentle and delicate.

"Hiss~"

"This piece is extraordinary!"

"There's actually a master!"

"..."

The scene erupted in an uproar, but no one dared to make a loud noise.

They quickly settled down, silently appreciating this century-level piece!

Zhuang Wensheng's face was grim.

He knew he had met his match this time!

A piano piece isn't necessarily better the more difficult it is!

With Li Feiyu's performance, he couldn't even guarantee if he could win the championship anymore!

"Hmph! I underestimated him!"

"Young Master Zhuang, should we disqualify him?" A follower asked quietly.

Zhuang Wensheng heard this and shook his head slightly, "No need! I want to see just how strong he is!"

Preventing someone from competing was too undignified; people who didn't know would think he was scared!

An unknown nobody wasn't enough to make him so passive.

However, after the competition, that might not be the case!

On the stage.

Xiao Ran's fingers danced slowly, extremely elegant.

The piece concluded.

"Clap clap clap clap!"

Thunderous applause, continuous and unending.

Xiao Ran stood up, smiling as he waved to the audience!

"Fei Yu Ge Ge! That was amazing!"

The sudden shout almost made him stumble.

Murong Qing, at some unknown point, had started gesticulating wildly, drawing attention, and everyone's gaze lingered between the two of them.

"A perfect match!"

"What a pity! My Granddaughter was dumped by her boyfriend and hasn't gotten over it yet. Otherwise, this young man would be great!"

"Elder Shen! What a coincidence! My daughter is the same! I don't know which bastard did it!"

"..."

Soon, the judges scored.

Three 10s, two 9.5s.

One point higher than Zhuang Wensheng!

First place in the first round was definitely secured!

Xiao Ran waved his hand, and under the admiring gazes of the crowd, returned to his seat.

"Fei Yu Ge Ge!" Murong Qing brought over a bottle of water to show her attentiveness.

"Move!" Xiao Ran was impolite; not telling her to get lost was already giving her face.

He ignored her expression, and after returning to his seat, he directly drank half a bottle of the water Zhang Wenxue handed him.

The stark contrast before and after.

Not much harm, but extremely insulting.

[+10]

"That felt good!"

"What felt good?"

"Nothing."

The subsequent contestants were not very interesting.

After being bombarded by several high-quality pieces earlier, the scores of the later few were tragically low.

Half an hour later, the first half concluded.

The audience exited one by one... —
