Chapter 563: 536 Like a Beggar
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Tao Yue watched the white sports car go away. Although she didn’t see who was inside, she could tell how much the car was worth. Even Tao Yue’s brother, Tao Sheng, had never driven such an expensive car.
Who was the one who picked Tan Rou up? Where was Tan Rou going? These two questions deeply troubled Tao Yue.
However, when she got to the venue for the piano competition, Tao Yue’s two questions were solved.
“Eldest cousin, why are you here? Are you here for the competition too?” Tao Yue asked worriedly when she saw Tan Rou.” If Tan Rou participated in the competition, she would definitely not have the chance to get first place again.
“I’m not here to participate in the competition.” Tan Rou answered honestly.
Tao Yue let out a sigh of relief. “Is Big Cousin here to watch the competition? If 1 had known that Eldest Cousin would also be here, I would have brought you along.”
Tan Rou’s tone was cold. “We’re not on the same path. There’s no need for us to head to here together.”
Tao Yue was a person who attracted attention. On this day, Tao Yue’s every move would attract the attention of others.
“Who was that person talking to Tao Yue? Is she also a contestant?”
“You don’t look like a contestant! All of us had dressed up carefully before coming here. Only she was different. She was dressed so casually. She was definitely not a contestant.”
“Is there something wrong with your ears? Didn’t she hear Tao Yue calling her ‘Big Cousin?’ There must be only one person Tao Yue called Big Cousin.” “Heavens! Was she the eldest daughter of the Tao family? She’s really too beautiful!”
“But 1 feel that their relationship is not very good.”
Tao Yue couldn’t let others see that she and Tan Rou were not on good terms. Otherwise, others would think that Tan Rou’s arrival had affected her status.
“If you want to go in and watch the competition, come in with me.” Tao Yue said affectionately.
Tan Rou stood to the side in disgust. “No need. I can go in myself.”
“Tan Rou, what are you doing here?” An annoying voice sounded in Tan Rou’s ear, and the voice was getting closer and closer. “You’re not here to participate in the piano competition, are you?”
This person was none other than Meng Xiao, who was also participating in the piano competition.
Tan Rou looked at Meng Xiao. Meng Xiao was wearing a golden gown and had makeup on. She looked very noble and beautiful. As long as she didn’t speak, she was definitely a cultured beauty.
“Does this have anything to do with you?” Tan Rou’s attitude toward Meng Xiao was even worse. She didn’t need to explain to Meng Xiao why she was here. Moreover, from Meng Xiao’s appearance, he should also be a contestant. Since he was a contestant, they would definitely meet later. There was no need to waste time explaining.
“Of course it has something to do with me.” Meng Xiao said proudly. “I’m a contestant here. Someone like you probably won’t have the chance to participate in such a competition in your lifetime.”
Tan Rou nodded slightly. “What you said makes sense.”
Although this competition invited famous young pianists from all over the world, the contestants were too young, after all, and few of them actually composed their own. Tan Rou had no interest in participating in a competition like this. If she were to participate, she would definitely participate in an original piano competition.
Meng Xiao sized up Tan Rou and mocked, “It seems like the eldest daughter of the Tao family isn’t doing well in the Tao family. Look at your clothes today. You look like a beggar who came here to beg for food.”
Tan Rou was wearing a simple jacket, slim pants, and black Martin boots today. She looked very youthful. It was just that her outfit was not suitable for this venue. After all, the contestants were all dressed up very well and were afraid of losing to others in terms of appearance.
“What nonsense are you spouting?” Hang Wei couldn’t stand it anymore. “Who do you think looks like a beggar here?”
“And who are you?” Meng Xiao continued to taunt, “The beggar that came with Tan Rou?”
Some of them knew Hang Wei. After hearing Meng Xiao’s words, they couldn’t help but ask, “Isn’t that CEO Hang from TL Company? How could he be a beggar?”
Meng Xiao didn’t know Hang Wei, nor did she know about the TL company. “What kind of company is that? Is it bigger than our Meng family’s company?” “So you’re from the Meng family?” Hang Wei sneered, “Let’s not waste time on
people like her. Let’s go..”
