Seeing Shang Ziyan smile at Qian Sui and say such things, Luo Xinyue really wanted to rush up and pin Shang Ziyan to the ground!

Shang Ziyan didn't ask Qian Sui if she wanted to play. She just pulled Qian Sui up and made her face so many people before pretending to be very understanding and asking Qian Sui what she wanted to play.

This person really has a lot of nerve!

Luo Xinyue really wanted to rush up and pull Qian Sui back, but firstly, she was stopped by the people around her, and secondly, she saw that Qian Sui didn't react at all.

Luo Xinyue had no choice but to stop.

Luo Xinyue knew Qian Sui well; if Qian Sui couldn't handle it herself, she would definitely ask her for help. But this time, Qian Sui didn't send a distress signal to Luo Xinyue.

Therefore, Luo Xinyue guessed that Qian Sui could handle this situation on his own.

Luo Xinyue knew that Qian Sui could play the guzheng, but she had never heard Qian Sui play the guzheng.

But in the previous situation, when Chitose said she only knew a little bit, then it really was a tiny bit.

If Chisui could say she could play the guzheng, then her guzheng skills must be quite good, because for Chisui, she would only say she could play if she had reached an extremely high level of professionalism.

Seeing that Qian Sui didn't react, Luo Xinyue's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, slowly calmed down.

Luo Xinyue thought that Qian Sui was someone she could face.

Qian Sui stood next to Shang Ziyan, but she kept looking at Shang Ziyan as if she hadn't heard what Shang Ziyan had just said.

Chisui's eyes are very beautiful. Even when she is daydreaming, they are like a lake, looking very moving and clear.

She was now looking at Shang Ziyan indifferently, her eyes devoid of any emotion, making it impossible to tell whether she was happy or angry.

When Shang Ziyan saw Qian Sui's look, her heart skipped a beat.

Shang Ziyan was deliberately teasing Qian Sui. Now she's bringing Qian Sui out and telling everyone that Qian Sui has been learning the guzheng for a long time, so everyone must be really looking forward to seeing how good Qian Sui is at the guzheng.

If Chisei doesn't play well later, her reputation will be ruined.

This is killing two birds with one stone.

This not only dealt a blow to the emperor but also elevated his own status.

Qian Sui looked dazed. She couldn't see through Shang Ziyan's mischief before, which is why Shang Ziyan dared to bring Qian Sui out this time.

Shang Ziyan thought that Qian Sui probably still wouldn't be able to see through her mischief this time, and might even think that she was giving her a chance to perform.

Thinking of this, Shang Ziyan's panicked heart gradually calmed down.

Shang Ziyan smiled beautifully, looked at Qian Sui, and repeated her question once again.

Shang Ziyan asked, "Your Majesty, what piece would you like to play?"

Chisui seemed to have just come to her senses.

Qian Sui turned her gaze away from Shang Ziyan and looked at the guzheng placed beside her.

This guzheng looks expensive and is very well made. It's clear that the family that adopted Shang Ziyan has put a lot of effort into teaching her to play the guzheng.

Qian Sui also noticed Shang Ziyan's hands, which indeed bore the marks left from years of practicing the zither.

Qian Sui looked at her hands again. There were no calluses on her fingertips, but there were some on the base of her thumb and forefinger. These were from when she was with her master on the mountain, loosening the soil for the sunflowers with a hoe.

Compared to before, Chisui's hands look like those of someone who does rough work.

Qian Sui wasn't intimidated, but turned to Shang Ziyan and said, "I haven't played in a long time, so I might not play well."

If someone truly cares about Chitose, they wouldn't make things difficult for her after hearing her say that.

But Shang Ziyan only dragged Qian Sui out to make things difficult for her, and the people around were watching.

Shang Ziyan then said to Qian Sui, "Qian Sui, you've practiced for so long. Even if you don't play for a while, you'll definitely play very well again. And look..."

Shang Ziyan gestured for Qian Sui to look at the people surrounding them.

Shang Ziyan said, "There are so many people watching, just play one piece."

Chisui looked around at the people, who were all looking forward to it, and some had already taken out their phones to take pictures.

These people didn't mean any harm; they just wanted to see the emperor perform.

If Chitose were an outsider and unaware of the difficulties faced by those on the field, she would probably join in the commotion, and she wouldn't blame them.

There was a boy nearby who didn't seem very friendly. He held up his phone, waiting to record, but after holding it up for a long time, Qian Sui still didn't play. He said impatiently, "Do you even know how to play? If you can, then play one. If you can't, then put it down and don't stop us from watching others play."

If others are just stirring up trouble without any malicious intent, then this person is launching a targeted attack.

Upon hearing this, Luo Xinyue immediately turned hostile.

Chisui can handle things on the field, but she'll handle things off the field.

Luo Xinyue stepped forward and said to the boy, "Just watch the show, why are you talking so much nonsense? If you're so good, why don't you do it yourself!"

The boy wasn't going to back down either, and retorted directly, "So what? Do I have to know how to cool an air conditioner to say it's not cooling?"

Upon hearing this, Luo Xinyue immediately snorted coldly: "People complain that the air conditioner isn't cooling, but at least they paid for it. What about you? You're just recording a program for free with your phone, and you still have the nerve to complain?"

Luo Xinyue is not only good at academics, but also at public speaking. She previously represented the school in the debate team and even won first place.

So as soon as she opened her mouth, the boy opposite her was rendered speechless.
