Chapter 180

Guys, I have recently started translating a new novel, Getting Outsmarted By The CEO. I can assure that you guys will definitely like it if you give it a try. You can read it HERE. It has already been translated up to chapter 16.

Yin Hua continued, “On one hand, she may have some kind of inferiority complex. She may seem strong, but in fact she is just a sensitive and fragile little girl. If she depended too much on you, her inferiority complex will increase, becoming a psychological burden. On the other hand, she is very strong-minded. Even if you don’t mind helping her, she can’t take it for granted. What do you think others will think about her? Everyone will look at her strangely. It will be her who will need to bear with that kind of criticism and ill attention.”

After Yin Hua said her piece, Tong Yan lowered his head and did not speak for a while. His eyelids were drooping, showing how uncomfortable he was feeling.

Yin Hua continued: “If you want to be nice to her, you should respect her choice and help her silently. You insisting on helping her is good, but it is actually a very sweet burden for her. Seeing your kindness, it’s most likely very hard for her to refuse. Don’t make it too difficult for her.”

Yin Hua had always been a strong character so it was rare for Tong Yan to see her gentle side. Her tone was not harsh, but persuasive. It was as if she was analyzing Xu Xinduo’s affairs as she spoke.

It also felt like she was talking about her own past.

Yin Hua understood Xu Xinduo’s thoughts.

Tong Yan remained silent for a long time before he spoke in a particularly aggrieved tone: “I just want to be nice to her.”

Yin Hua turned her head to look at him and couldn’t help but smile. However, she said nothing.

Not long after, Xu Xinduo came onto the stage and she seemed to notice Tong Yan and Yin Hua while walking. Even if Yin Hua was wearing a fisherman hat, she recognized the mother and son at a single glance.

Xu Xinduo was a little surprised, but she calmed down quickly and sat in a chair waiting for her match to start.

While waiting for Xu Xinduo to start, Yin Hua turned and asked Tong Yan: “I heard that you have been practicing ‘The Bell’ recently, how is it going?”

(T/L: ‘The Bell’ is a piano tune.)

Tong Yan couldn’t help but frown as he nodded: “Well.”

“Are you practicing, or is she practicing?”

“She.” Tong Yan didn’t lie.

She expected that answer and then she continued to ask: “Then how are your skills?”

“I am a certified pianist.”

Yin Hua was feeling a little sad after hearing it, but she was happy that wasn’t the worst answer.

Yin Hua asked again: “How does she practice piano in her own body?”

“She can practice with an electronic keyboard, but the flexibility of her fingers is not as good as my body so the span of her fingers is less. However, her skills are still there.”

“The last time I heard some small flaws when she played. I wonder what she was like when she is not drunk.”

Xu Xinduo’s repertoire for today’s competition was 《Moonlight Sonata 3rd Movement》.

For the competition, she was wearing a goose yellow tulle dress with embroidered patterns. Her hair was tied up and she had a light layer of makeup on, which made her look exquisite and beautiful.

She looked very elegant, while playing the piano and seemed that she was enjoying it.

After listening for a while, Yin Hua couldn’t help, but stare at Tong Yan: “Look at the skills she reached just by practising with an electronic keyboard.”

“……”

Why does it feel like I just got dissed by my mom?

At the same time, in another venue, the certified pianist contestants were also going through qualifiers.

Mu Qingyao was among them.

Her face had gotten a little better since the incident and the scabs had fallen off a lot after washing her face. Her cheeks were still swollen, but there was no major problem.

As long as she had makeup to cover her face, there was no problem if anyone didn’t look at her face too carefully.
