Mu Chengxi leaned lazily against the cabinet at the entrance. He looked at Mu Bei and Liang Luoyu with a slightly dark expression. “What are the two of you doing here at this time?” Shouldn’t you be back at the hospital?”
“My wound is almost healed. I won’t be going back to the hospital. I just came back from the Zhaos. You don’t even know…
Liang Luoyu opened the shoe cabinet and was about to change into his shoes when he saw Wen Xin’s shoes. He looked up and saw Mu Chengxi’s cold expression. He suddenly realized what he had done wrong and quickly left.
Mu Bei, who was about to enter, was shocked by Liang Luoyu’s actions. He looked at Liang Luoyu in confusion, then at Mu Chengxi, who was standing lazily inside.
“I’m sorry, Master Xi. I really shouldn’t have come over so late. I’ll take Guagua away immediately.”
Liang Luoyu didn’t even bother changing his shoes. He ran into the living room and put the dog leash on Guagua. He didn’t care about the injury on his shoulder. He half-dragged Guagua out and politely closed the door.
Mu Bei looked at Liang Luoyu’s series of actions. Weren’t they here to tell
Master Xi what happened at the Zhaos? Why did he come out before entering? “Young Master Liang, what happened to Master Xi? Why aren’t we allowed in?”
Liang Luoyu stuffed the dog leash into Mu Bei’s hand and covered his shoulder with his uninjured arm. He looked at Mu Bei and smiled wickedly.
“Wen Xiaoxin is inside. If we go in and disturb Master Xi, we’ll be sent to
Continent F. Did you forget that Gu Yanzhe was thrown to Continent F by
Master Xi? Do you want to accompany him too?”
“Didn’t Miss Wen leave with the piano master? Why did she come back with Master Xi?”
Mu Bei held Guagua in one hand and the cat carrier in the other. He took the elevator downstairs with the two pets.
Mu Chengxi looked at the tightly shut door and stood up lazily. When he turned around, he saw the photo he had casually placed in the locker drawer. He opened the drawer and took out the photo before walking into the study.
If he was not wrong, the woman in the photo should be Wen Xin’s mother. However, he had not thought of how to tell Wen Xin that he had helped Monchitov find her mother.
“What are you doing? Sneaking around?”
At this moment, Wen Xin suddenly appeared outside Mu Chengxi’s study room.
Her slender body leaned against the door frame as she looked coldly at Mu Chengxi sitting behind his desk.
“Come in. I wanted to tell you two days later, but since you bumped into me, I’ll tell you directly.”
Since Wen Xin had discovered it, Mu Chengxi did not want to hide it. He waved at Wen Xin and took out the photo from the drawer and placed it on the desk.
Wen Xin walked forward and picked up the very old photo from Mu Chengxi’s desk. Looking at the woman in the photo, her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly.
“Where did you get this photo?”
Wen Xin took the photo and sat down lazily across from Mu Chengxi. There was no change in her gaze. Mu Chengxi could not understand Wen Xin’s attitude.
“Monchitov gave it to me. He said this was his proudest disciple and wanted me to help him find this person. I heard from your aunt about your mother today. I think this person should be your mother, right?”
Mu Chengxi looked at Wen Xin. He did not want her to be sad at the mention of the past, so he did not mention it to Wen Xin immediately.
“No, she’s not my mother. She’s my mother’s sister. However, she’s a taboo in the Tang family. Grandpa never allows anyone to mention her. I don’t know where she is, nor do I know anything about her.”
Wen Xin placed the photo back on Mu Chengxi’s table and raised an eyebrow at him. “Let me advise you. If you don’t want to be chased out by my grandfather in the future, you’d better not get involved in this matter. Otherwise, even I can’t protect you!”
Wen Xin smiled evilly at Mu Chengxi. She felt that the matters of the Tang family were too complicated, and it was better for him not to get involved.
Mu Chengxi looked at Wen Xin’s gloating expression. He placed the photo in the drawer and walked to Wen Xin’s side. He picked her up from the chair and walked straight to the bedroom.
Geng Qiu looked anxiously at the post on the black net. She had posted a reward of 200,000 yuan to find the original composer of the piano piece that Lapor had posted on the Short videos platform, but no one had replied.
She was very puzzled. This piano piece was clearly very good, but why did no one know who the original composer was?
“Qiuqiu, if you can’t do it, then change to another song. Change it to something you’re good at. No one is better than you in this year’s piano competition. You don’t have to make things difficult for yourself! ”
Su Li watched as she sat in front of the piano and practiced the piano piece that she wasn’t very familiar with. She didn’t know why Geng Qiu was torturing herself like this.
“Mom, you don’t know. I want to amaze everyone, not just the first place! Lapor has publicly announced that I’m no longer her disciple. I want to impress those judges and let some of them admire me. Only then can I have a future! Otherwise, what else can I do now?”
“After the incident at Beijing University last time, I’ve been blacklisted by
major universities in the country. While top art schools haven’t officially made any statements, they won’t consider me if my academic performance isn’t exceptionally outstanding. This is my only chance, Mom—I must succeed!”
After Geng Qiu was slapped in the face by Lapor in public during the public lecture, she instantly woke up. She had to perform well in this piano competition. Otherwise, she could only accept Geng Shikui’s arrangement to study abroad. She did not want to go abroad because it was so dangerous.
Su Li looked at Geng Qiu with heartache. She rubbed the top of Geng Qiu’s head and said, “Qiu Qiu, send me the original video. I’ll get someone to ask for you.
No one knows about this piano piece.”
“Mom, you’re not going to look for Lapor, are you? That piano piece belongs to her friend, but if she finds out that I want to use it, she will definitely reject it. Mom, we can’t go through her. We have to buy the copyright before she finds out about this.”
Geng Qiu had once respected Lapor, but now, she hated her. Lapor had destroyed her, causing her to lose all her prestige. She dared not even go to school, afraid of those mocking gazes.
“I won’t go look for her. I have other ways. Don’t worry!” Su Li gently hugged Geng Qiu’s petite body. She felt that the pressure on Geng Qiu was too great. She was worried that she would be unable to take it and would break down.
“Qiuqiu, go and rest for a while. Mom will find someone to ask for you. Don’t worry, there should be results soon!”
“I don’t want to. I still need to familiarize myself with this piano piece. I can only achieve the desired result by practicing diligently..”
