EBE Chapter 33: Unexpected, slap in the face
Chapter 33: Unexpected, slap in the face
"I'm here to watch you compete." Qingya leaned back, his eyes still looking like he hadn't woken up yet. "Come on, I'll take you to dinner after your competition."
Hearing Qingya's words, Si Xue looked at him with disdain, "Are you okay? Who wants to have dinner with you?"
"You said it yourself." The master called him last night and asked him to bring his little sister to have dinner with the master.
Junior sister and master haven't seen each other for a long time, so they must have a lot to talk about.
But looking at Junior Sister, she doesn’t seem to be particularly looking forward to meeting the Master.
Si Xue's look of disdain was engraved in Qingya's mind.
Hearing his words, Si Xue was even more disgusted, "I've never seen you so self-indulgent, did I ever say I wanted to have dinner with you?"
He was afraid he was dreaming that she agreed to have dinner with him.
Qingya spent his time sleeping and eating, and for the first time he wanted to beat someone up.
Why did the master accept such a annoying little sister?
"Regarding the last competition, Mr. Chen Yu gave the lowest score. We would like to ask Mr. Chen Yu to explain the reason."
The official gave the microphone to Chen Yu.
Chen Yu took the microphone and maintained the same attitude as at the beginning, "My attitude remains unchanged. Although this song is good, she does not have enough ability to handle it. She made five or six mistakes in the notes. Maybe it is her original song. Others cannot hear the difference, but I can."
After a pause, he looked at Si Xue: "Since it's her original work, let her explain to everyone how many notes she got wrong."
Chen Yu printed out a bunch of original manuscripts and sent them to the judges.
After seeing the piece, the judges still insisted on their opinion, "Although there are mistakes, he is a genius to be able to write such an excellent piece at such a young age. Why should we find fault with him?"
They have no plans to change the score.
Chen Yu also insisted on his opinion: "There are a thousand Hamlets for a thousand readers. The judges insist on their opinions, and I also insist on my opinion. In my eyes, the person who played the most perfect in this competition is Qin Yue."
Chen Yu put all the evidence in front of the audience, but they still felt that Cheng Sixue was the best.
Seeing that Chen Yu insisted on his own opinion, the competition organizers stopped trying to persuade him. Since he didn't care about his reputation, they couldn't help him.
Si Xue originally respected Chen Yu very much, but when she saw that he was so prejudiced against her, she felt that he was inferior.
Respect for him was gone.
Even if he doesn't think she'll win, she's still the champion.
The remaining two contestants also performed their own pieces, but they became mediocre compared to Cheng Sixue.
"The results of the competition are out. Even if we remove the highest and lowest scores, Cheng Sixue still scored the highest."
The official announcement of the competition: "Cheng Sixue won the gold medal and Qin Yue won the silver medal."
There is also an Excellence Award, but nothing else.
Just as Si Xue predicted, Qin Yue lost to Si Xue by 0.01 points.
"Please invite the three winners to the stage to receive their awards."
The host called Cheng Sixue, Qin Yue, and another person to the stage to receive the award according to their ranking.
Standing on the stage, Cheng Sixue whispered in Qin Yue's ear: "Qin Yue, everything is as I expected. You lost to me by 0.01 points."
The result was already determined, but Qin Yue was not as panicked as before. "Victory and defeat are common in the military, it's just a coincidence."
Si Xue calculated the time and whispered in her ear: "Calculate the time, your elder brother should have had an accident today. I wonder if you will still think it is a coincidence when your elder brother has an accident."
When mentioning his elder brother, Qin Yue's face looked obviously a little ugly, not as calm as before.
Today's defeat was already inevitable, but Si Xue made a slight mistake in her prediction, so Teacher Chen Yu gave Si Xue the lowest score.
“This competition also offers a rare opportunity, which is also designed for outstanding young pianists in this competition.”
When the host said this, he looked at
The competition organizers continued, "The Liangcheng Piano Association will select an outstanding contestant to join the association to continue learning with the masters. There will be many opportunities to tour with the masters in the future."
As usual, gold medal winners are usually chosen to join the piano association.
Moreover, Si Xue is so outstanding and is recognized as a genius by everyone, so she is the only one who can join the association.
Si Xue also thought so, and the spot to join the association belonged to her.
She is full of confidence.
"In the past, those who entered the association were all champions of major competitions. I wonder if the president of the association will continue to choose champions to join the association this time?"
The host handed the microphone to Chen Yu, "Let's invite the chairman of the piano association, Mr. Chen Yu, to announce this good news."
Si Xue was stunned for a moment. How could Chen Yu be the chairman of the association?
In the previous life, it was Chen Yu’s mortal enemy who competed for the position of chairman of the piano association.
"It must be Cheng Sixue. If it wasn't Cheng Sixue, I would eat shit while standing upside down."
"Needless to say, it must be Cheng Sixue. If it's not Cheng Sixue, I can only say that the chairman of the piano association is really watered down."
Si Xue calmed herself down. Although Teacher Chen Yu gave her a low score, he always liked her.
The music for this competition was too difficult and there were some mistakes. He should understand that.
He still values her.
Chen Yu announced the result: "I give this year's quota of Liangcheng Piano Association to Qin Yue. I sincerely invite Qin Yue to join the association. Although she lost the competition, her ability is obvious to all. No matter what competition it is, all that will be remembered is the champion."
"But Qin Yue's level is beyond the reach of ordinary people. Cheng Sixue has already won the championship and will have a bigger platform. I don't want Qin Yue to be forgotten. She needs this opportunity more."
After Chen Yu finished speaking, everyone present fell silent.
“The Piano Association does not select the most outstanding people to join, but rather selects those who need this platform more.”
Chen Yu added another sentence.
He neither denied Cheng Sixue's championship nor did he explain his intention of recruiting students, leaving no room for loopholes.
Qin Yue was a little surprised. Could this be the turning point that Zhou Zhizhi mentioned?
Because there has never been an example of a runner-up joining the association.
She is the first.
Si Xue was also confused, because she was the champion Zhou Zhizhi in her previous life.
She replaced Zhou Zhizhi and became the champion, so she should be the one to join the association.
Why did it become Qin Yue?
Many things that she couldn't understand became a source of worry for Si Xue, and she refused to accept them.
She relied on her own efforts to get to where she is today, but at her most glorious moment, someone poured a bucket of cold water on her.
Qin Yue thanked Chen Yu, and when she was leaving the stage, she called Si Xue.
"Did you predict what happened just now?" She chuckled, not disappointed that she only won the silver medal.
As long as Si Xue didn't predict it, she won.
Si Xue's back stiffened for a moment, but soon returned to normal, "Of course I predicted it. Qin Yue, it's your eldest brother's turn next."
