Li Xing’er could not help but burst into laughter and said with a chuckle, “Mr. Zhao has been talking for a long time but Qiao Xi doesn’t know him at all. He’s famous in the music industry, so naturally, many people have heard of him, but few ordinary people have.”

Qiao Xi’s casual words instantly crushed Zhao Qinghui’s dignity to the floor.

Mr. Zhao had always been arrogant and disdained to be associated with others. However, this young lady had never heard of him.

Zhao Qinghui’s expression was gloomy. Yao Mengqing took the opportunity to speak.

She looked surprised. “Xi Xi, why don’t you… know Mr. Zhao? He was also a judge back then!”

Judge?

Zhao Qinghui was the judge for the violin competition three years ago. It was no wonder he admired Yao Mengqing so much. She was the champion!

Seeing everyone’s adoring gazes, Zhao Qinghui’s expression softened a little. He suddenly thought of something and snorted.

“It’s normal that you haven’t seen me before, Miss Qiao. After all, only those who entered the finals could see me. If I remember correctly… you didn’t enter the finals back then.”

Everyone gasped.

It turned out… Back then, Qiao Xi and Yao Mengqing had participated in the violin competition together. One won the championship while the other did not even enter the finals.

This was simply the difference between heaven and earth!

Yao Mengqing smiled smugly, then looked at Gu Zheng. However, Gu Zheng did not even bother looking at her.

Yao Mengqing clenched her fists and gritted her teeth.

Ah Zheng would find out sooner or later how outstanding she was, while Qiao Xi was just a piece of trash. She was not even worthy of carrying her shoes.

Violin was a musical instrument that required talent. Many daughters of rich families spent a lot of money to learn it, but they were still useless. It was even rarer for them to obtain results in competitions. Since she became the champion of such a prestigious competition, it would be equivalent to her winning a ticket to the upper class society.

Zhao Qinghui looked at her disdainfully. “Miss Qiao, you’re also a violinist. Why don’t you comment on Miss Yao’s performance?”

Qiao Xi’s gaze was indifferent. “Mr. Zhao, I didn’t even enter the finals and didn’t manage to see you. What right do I have to comment on the performance of a champion?”

Back then, she did not enter the finals and did not care whether or not she could win the championship. However, it was absolutely impossible for Yao Mengqing to use this matter to trample on her.

Moreover, what was the reason she did not enter the finals back then? This might not be a matter of skills at all. Perhaps there were still some secrets that had not been unearthed.

She had learned how to play the violin from Fourth Brother. Many of her picky brothers gave her a thumbs up and thought that if she entered the music industry, her future would definitely be bright.

If Yao Mengqing was only at this standard, then there was certainly something amiss with her being the champion.

Hearing her words, Zhao Qinghui instantly raised his head arrogantly. “Miss Qiao, you don’t have to belittle yourself. I’m sorry that I didn’t get to hear you perform. No matter what, you were competing against Mengqing, after all. Now that three years have passed, why don’t we compete again and see who has improved more?”

Old Master Li frowned unhappily.

Today was his birthday. He only took out his treasured musical instrument for everyone to enjoy themselves, but this Zhao Qinghui kept mocking Miss Qiao. Wasn’t he taking this too seriously?

Anyone with discerning eyes could tell that he was making things difficult for Miss Qiao. Old Master Li was about to help Qiao Xi out of this predicament when he saw his granddaughter shake her head at him.

Looking at Qiao Xi’s calm appearance, Li Xing’er had a feeling that Qiao Xi’s violin skills would definitely be better than Yao Mengqing’s.

Qiao Xi was silent for a moment before she suddenly sneered. “Mr. Zhao, you’ve already said that Miss Yao is the champion and I didn’t even enter the finals. Now that you’re asking me to compete with Miss Yao, isn’t it… a little too much?”

Everyone remained silent.

Everyone present knew that Qiao Xi was Gu Zheng’s woman. Whether the Gu family acknowledged her or not, she had Gu Zheng as her backer.

Zhao Qinghui was humiliating Qiao Xi. Was he not afraid of offending Gu Zheng?
