The Struggles of Being A Mother of Villains

Ch.146 Golden Finger (5)

"Yes, I can." Joe David responded at Xiao Yu's direction, but his eyes were looking at Fei Yutong.

Clearly, Joe David played quite seriously in order to show off his piano skills. It was filled with emotion.

Xiao Yu looked at him with her arms across her chest, but she was asking Fu Hui, "Is he...alright? This is supposed to be a military-themed piece to boost morale!"

Fu Hui was also speechless. "No, he's very talented. This is probably the most emotional piece he'd played."

Xiao Yu nodded. "I believe this can become one of his classics." There's probably nobody else who can play such an epic piece so emotionally.

"Oh, right." Fu Hui took out a flyer from her bag. "This is an entry form for Irmler Piano's audition. He gave me a few copies so take a look and see if you're interested to participate."

Xiao Yu looked at it and asked, "Is this held in Germany?"

Fu Hui smiled. "They say it's Germany, but not really? It's hosted by Irmler Pianos, and it's quite formal. It has some recognition in the circle. I checked, and it seems the competitions you've been in are too little, not to mention your previous results weren't the best. You should participate in more of these competitions, that way you can get used to playing on the stage. But of course, it can also be a channel for you to slowly make a comeback."

Xiao Yu read the introduction and said, "You're too kind. I've never made it, so how can I make a comeback? Wow, I'll be participating in the youth group?"

Fu Hui, "...Well, you're 25." Was she still thinking of joining the youth group at that age?

Xiao Yu nodded. " Ahem," she scratched her cheek, "I didn't think I was that old already."

"Madam isn't old at all." Xu Haotian came out from the back and stood next to Xiao Yu. "Madam is still 25 years young!"

Xiao Yu gave him a subtle look. Xu Haotian was instantly confused. What do those eyes mean?

Xiao Yu looked at Joe David, then at Xu Haotian, clicking her tongue. "Look at him, he's more handsome than you, more talented, taller, richer, and most importantly, they have similar interests! That means they have stuff to talk about!"

Xu Haotian was dumbfounded. Xiao Yu pointed to his forehead and said, "You dummy, can't you see that that white boy likes that?"

Xiao Yu motioned her chin at the enchanted Fei Yutong. "You're done for, you've already lost."

Xu Haotian received a blow, but he still said to Xiao Yu, unwilling to accept it, "What...What do you mean I've lost! We haven't even competed with each other yet! And so what if he's more handsome than me? Foreigners like to play around."

Xiao Yu said, "But they're more family-oriented after marriage!"

"Madam, aren't you going to help me?" Xu Haotian looked sadly at Xiao Yu.

Xu Haotian had basically become Xiao Yu's exclusive driver, and Xiao Yu had been mostly going out in his car recently. For that reason, he was more casual while speaking with Xiao Yu.

Xiao Yu laughed. "How should I help? It depends on who Yutong likes! Right? Sis Fu?"

Fu Hui also laughed. "Joe won't be around for long, so don't worry."

Xu Haotian was instantly filled with confidence. "So does that mean he's really here to play around?"

Xiao Yu jabbed at him, "But he plays the piano well!"

Xu Haotian, "..."

"So what if he plays the piano well? Do pianists seek out partners by piano grade?" Ji Xuan's cold voice suddenly emerged by Xiao Yu's ear.

Xiao Yu was stunned. She turned around to him and asked, "Why did you come back so early today?"

"I came back since there was nothing to do." While speaking, Ji Xuan reached out to take the flyer from Xiao Yu. "Are you going to participate? So the national preselection starts in March next year?"

Xiao Was wasn't happy about being robbed of her flyer. She just nodded. "I'll give it a go! I think by next year I'll have practiced for half a year?"

Ji Xuan frowned. "Didn't you start learning from a young age?"

Xiao Yu, "...Uh, I mean I'll have been practicing for half a year since the car accident. I should just about be fully recovered by then."

Fu Hui turned to her in shock. "!!! When did you get into a car accident?"

Xiao Yu looked up and thought, "Around early September?"

Fu Hui instantly looked at her as if she were a monster. "How much have you recovered? I can't believe you were playing Flight of the Bumblebee at that tempo."

Xiao Yu stroked her chin and said with a smile, "Maybe it's a miracle!" Anyway, anything related to 404's golden finger was collectively called a miracle by Xiao Yu.

Ji Xuan, "..." You really have a lot of miracles.
