Forced to Date a Big Shot

51 - 55

Xue Yao’s face was tensed up. As an experienced pianist, she finally understood Xia Yiyi’s talents. She stared at the girl, then suddenly smiled. “Yes, it’s strange.”

Xia Yiyi stared at and read her lips. Once she understood, she wrote again: “Where is it wrong?”

Xue Yao immediately walked over to her. She bent down at the waist slightly, placed her fingers on the piano, and reproduced the particular line the girl had played previously.

Xue Xi immediately frowned when she heard it.

It sounded worse after Xue Yao edited it!

Xia Yiyi felt the same too. She frowned in confusion, then typed on her phone: “Is this really alright?”

Xue Yao’s face darkened as she stared back. “Ms Xia, why bother asking me if you don’t trust me?”

The girl panicked when Xue Yao got angry, and she anxiously flailed her arms. She then typed on her phone again: “I’m sorry, Elder Sister Xue Yao. Don’t be angry. I trust you.”

She bit down on her lips and played it again on the piano using Xue Yao’s method. It did sound pretty good when played, but anyone who had even a little more experience in the piano could hear the disharmony in it!

Xia Yiyi still found it weird, but she dared not ask anything else. She had a helpless and lost expression.

As she stood beside the girl, Xue Yao’s eyes glinted with smugness.

In the entire Bin City, Xia Yiyi is the only one who is more talented than I am at the piano. Now that this piece has been laid to waste, what else does she have to rival me?

Right as she was gloating, an apathetic voice sounded. “Wrong.”

She froze and her head shot up.

Xue Xi had already stopped in front of Xia Yiyi. When the latter looked up, she used sign language and said, “What she said is wrong.”

The mute and deaf children in the orphanage communicated using sign language. She had learned it before and she had an extraordinarily retentive memory.

Xia Yiyi’s eyes lit up the moment she saw the sign language, and she instantly responded with her own.

Standing beside them, Xue Yao was stunned as she shuddered in fear. What are the two of them saying?

Can Xue Xi play the piano? Or did she see through my scheme?

At this moment, she caught the sound of a trail of people coming upstairs. An idea popped into her mind as she put on a pitiful expression. “Xue Xi, don’t teach Yiyi the wrong things. That is not how this verse is supposed to be played. How can you speak nonsense?”

The few people had reached this level right after she said this. Liu Yiqiu paused a little, then asked, “What’s happening?”

Xue Yao did not speak and, as expected, Sun Ruoruo stuck her head into the matter and accused Xue Xi. “Ms Xia asked Yaoyao to instruct her, but Xue Xi insisted on speaking nonsense to Ms.Xia. The teacher is coming soon, so isn’t she just wasting time that could be spent on instructing?”

Liu Yiqiu immediately gave a side-eye to Madam Xia, then pretended to be anxious. “Xixi, you don’t know how to play the piano, so don’t create more trouble here! Hurry and let Yaoyao instruct Ms Xia a little.”

Don’t know how to play the piano?

Madam Xia frowned. She had an extremely displeased expression.

Xue Yanmei even berated loudly, “What is wrong with you, Xue Xi? Don’t come and give the wrong instructions when you don’t know anything! Or are you jealous that other people can play the piano and so you purposely came to make trouble? How can you be so black-hearted?”
