Chapter 117: Pre-match Play-off
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The next day at school, Zhao Min took the initiative to find her and told her some news.
...Originally, Zhao Min had applied to the school to transfer Mei Mu’s spot in the competition to Mei Shu. The school leaders trusted Zhao Min’s abilities and had already agreed to the request. However, unexpectedly, Zhou Li also expressed her desire to participate in the competition yesterday.
But each school only had one spot for the competition.
Zhao Min was in a dilemma and came to discuss this matter with Mei Shu.
“The school’s suggestion is to have a competition between you two within the school. It will take place during the big break in the afternoon the day after tomorrow. The school will announce the competition publicly, and all students can come to watch.”
She said, pausing for a moment with some concern. “You don’t have a problem with this, right?”
She wasn’t worried that Mei Shu would lose. With Mei Shu’s current piano skills, it would be difficult for anyone to be her match, even in the main competition.
She was worried that Mei Shu might not want to participate and would use the excuse of wasting study time to refuse.
After all, persuading Mei Shu to agree to represent the school in the competition took the combined efforts of her and Lu Yan!
However, she didn’t expect that Mei Shu would agree so readily. “Sure, 1’11 be there.”
Zhao Min was somewhat incredulous and couldn’t help but ask curiously, “Mei Shu, I thought you wouldn’t agree to participate. Is it because Zhou Li provoked your competitive spirit? Isn’t she also from your class?”
For a moment, Zhao Min imagined a campus competition drama, but when she looked at Mei Shu’s expression, she knew it wasn’t the case at all!
Sure enough, Mei Shu’s answer in the next moment made her both laugh and cry.
“I agreed to participate because of my exceptional piano skills.”
That statement was not false.
Even if she competed with Zhou Li, with Mei Shu’s cheat, practicing the piano wouldn’t take much of her time.
Besides, her mother had always hoped she could take piano exams and participate in piano competitions while she was still alive.
This time, she could consider it fulfilling her mother’s wish!
The matter was settled, and to avoid rumors, the school kept the news about the piano competition within the school until the day of the event.
At that time, Wen Miao was consulting Mei Shu about a math problem.
Indeed, in just a month, Mei Shu had already mastered math to a considerable extent and could even explain problems to her classmates sometimes.
Mei Mu was still lying in the hospital. With an injury to her head, if she were to come to school now, she would undoubtedly become the center of attention, but in a negative way. So, she wouldn’t appear for a short period.
Currently, most of the classmates were revolving around Zhou Li.
After the favor she did during the last banquet, Zhou Li made everyone understand her family’s status and made them think she was worth fawning over.
During Mei Mu’s absence, Zhou Li had taken over her position in the class and, coupled with her sweet and lovely appearance, had been nominated as the new school belle of No.1 High School.
Of course, there were quite a few people at the school who opposed this.
Most of them believed that Mei Shu was much prettier than Zhou Li, but due to Mei Shu’s cold and distant personality, she wasn’t very likable, resulting in fewer votes for her than Zhou Li.
The day of the school’s piano competition arrived.
Everyone came early to the auditorium to secure their seats and witness the competition between Zhou Li and Mei Shu.
Someone suggested dividing the audience into two groups to watch the competition, and other students found it interesting and quickly changed seats accordingly.
On the left and middle of the audience, Zhou Li’s supporters sat, filling up all the seats and even the aisles.
On the other side, where Mei Shu’s supporters were, there were considerably fewer people, and many seats were empty. Even so, no one was willing to sit on that side and join Mei Shu.
Once Zhou Li arrived at the scene, she saw the distinct division of the two groups and smiled as she waved and greeted her supporters.
In the audience, someone excitedly stood up and waved to her, “Goddess, you’ll win for sure! We all support you!”
“You must defeat Mei Shu easily!”
“If the goddess wins today, I’ll treat everyone to a celebration dinner!”
“Wow, who’s so generous? Is it for real?”
The crowd here was already buzzing with excitement.
Zhou Li was quite satisfied with her popularity at school. It was in line with her identity as the daughter of the Zhou family!
Back in the capital, she was always the center of attention, and now that she was in Lin City, she naturally had to be the school goddess!
“Goddess, Mei Shu is no match for you. You must show her how capable you are later!” someone cheered.
“That’s right, goddess! We all believe in you!”
“Don’t be nervous!”
“I won’t be nervous,” Zhou Li smiled, full of charm. “Since I was a child, I’ve participated in numerous piano competitions and won many awards. If I have to be nervous about something, it’s whether you all will like me when I’m nervous.”
“We definitely like you!”
It had to be said that Zhou Li was indeed skilled at creating a lively atmosphere.
Mei Shu hasn’t even arrived yet, but the people here seem to have already assumed that Zhou Li will undoubtedly win. They’ve even planned which restaurant to go to for a victory celebration after school!
On the other side, Mei Shu’s supporters were all quiet.
Without Mei Shu’s presence, they couldn’t create any excitement!
