Chapter 243 Misunderstanding?
Merlin fell silent when he heard Xi Chenxiao’s words. Chairman Xi was not giving her any face, must he do this? Looking at Xi Chenxiao’s cold eyes, Merlin knew that she must address her as Madam Xi tonight. Chairman Xi would not let her off easily. So, she said through gritted teeth,
“Alright, Madam Xi, are you up for another competition?”
Xi Chenxiao held Su Jin’s hand, feeling a little excited. It was just a violin duet, and he could perform with Su Jin. Su Jin saw the anticipation in Xi Chenxiao’s eyes and was instantly filled with confidence. She quickly nodded and agreed to Merlin’s challenge. Su Jin was up for the challenge if Merlin was not afraid of being slapped in the face again. Su Jin already felt Merlin’s obvious hostility towards her and wanted let things go just now. After all, she must go back to school and there are many people at school waiting for her to make a fool of herself. She could not afford to
lose.!!
Merlin was overjoyed when she saw Su Jin’s agreement. She actually took up the challenge! Merlin would not lose so easily this time around. This was her last chance at regaining face. Therefore, she must win and win flawlessly. She immediately shouted at Randall,
“Brother, let’s play the violin together.”
No one knew that Randall was actually a very talented violinist. He has long reached master-level in terms of his skills. He was also publicly acknowledged as the Prince of Violin. If it wasn’t for the family, who knew how many accolades he would have received by now.
As for Merlin, she had long mastered the violin under Randall’s influence. She didn’t give her best at the earlier performance, but she wasn’t bad. She refused to believe that while Su Jin played the piano so well, she would also be outstanding at the violin.
Randall looked at Merlin, frowned and thought for a moment. He eventually walked up on stage even though it might be a little unfair for Merlin to win this way. He figured that this was an opportunity for Su Jin to see his talent and know that he was also someone outstanding. His interest was piqued and he decided to show off his charm.
Xi Chenxiao held Su Jin’s hand and led her down stage, letting Randall and Merlin perform first. When he passed by Randall and saw his fervent gaze, he felt inexplicably unhappy and hugged Su Jin closer as he said arrogantly,
“My dear wife, what reward would you like?”
Su Jin was pleasantly surprised when she heard this. She did not expect that Devil Xi would give her a gift. This old straight man had suddenly become an old sunshine man! But she still could not quite believe it, could Devil Xi be joking with her? She looked at Xi Chenxiao and asked,
“There’s really a reward?”
Xi Chenxiao kissed Su Jin’s cheek and nodded. Of course, there was a reward. After all, Su Jin had performed so well today and slapped Merlin twice in the face. It was simply perfect. Such a treasure was only discovered today. Xi Chenxiao said with a smile,
“Yes, of course. I will agree to anything you want.”
Su Jin did not expect Xi Chenxiao to kiss her in public. Her face instantly turned red, and she lowered her head shyly. What the hell was wrong with this usually cold, ruthless and stingy devil today? He was so affectionate and even kissed her a few times in public. And now he said that he would agree to anything she wants?
Randall clenched his fists when he saw the intimacy between Su Jin and Xi Chenxiao. He must win this competition and he must win it flawlessly. He must show this girl that he is also very outstanding. Definitely not inferior to Chairman Xi, perhaps even better than him.
With this thought in mind, Randall and Merlin began their performance. They chose a song that was relatively difficult in the violin world. Not many people would take up the challenge but the brother and sister performed it perfectly. Everyone was shocked beyond words when the performance ended.
Everyone applauded and cheered for Randall and Merlin. Merlin had performed the violin earlier and everyone thought she was just an amateur. They did not expect that she had real skills. Randall was even more unexpected, no one expected that he had such talent. The crowd commented,
“God, I didn’t expect these two siblings to be so good. It looks that Merlin and her partner will win this time round!”
“The winner’s got to be Merlin unless we have two gods onstage later. Wouldn’t you agree?”
