Chapter 184 He Wants to Be with Her
Su Jiuyao smiled. In fact, she practiced the piano just for her own entertainment and had never thought about performing on stage.
However, seeing how much her friend was looking forward to it, she decided to agree to Tang Xin's request and give it a try.
If she is lucky enough to be selected, that would be great. If she is not, at least she has tried her best, and Tang Xin should have no regrets.
When Tang Xin heard Su Jiuyao agreed, she was so happy that she immediately told Su Jiuyao several songs she was considering, and the two began to discuss how to choose one for the performance.
Lin Zihang's attention was always on the conversation between Su Jiuyao and Tang Xin, and he didn't hear what Anya said at all. When the people around him stopped talking, he realized that the atmosphere was a bit awkward.
"Excuse me, what did you say?"
Anya smiled bleakly and said dejectedly, "Nothing, I just wanted to ask you if you have any plans for the school anniversary party. The song we sang together at last year's New Year's Eve party received a good response. If you are interested, we can sing together again and choose a new song."
Lin Zihang shrugged. "That time it was the instructor's request. Let's forget it this time. I'm not really interested in duets and don't want to spend too much time practicing. Sorry."
Anya seemed to have anticipated this outcome and was not very surprised. She smiled faintly and said, "Okay, then just pretend I didn't say anything."
Anya stood up and prepared to return to her seat. Lin Zihang looked down at the several ensemble pieces he had written in his notebook, laughed at himself, tore off the page of paper, crumpled it into a ball, turned around and threw it behind him into the trash can in the corridor outside the door.
Anya witnessed all this and couldn't help but frown. She looked at the trash can outside the door and finally turned around. Instead of returning to her seat, she left the classroom and went to the corridor.
There were almost no classmates passing by in the corridor at this time. Anya looked at Lin Zihang again, and seeing that he didn't turn back, she pretended to throw a ball of tissue and picked up the ball of paper that Lin Zihang had just thrown away.
Anya held the paper ball tightly in her hand and went to the bathroom before she opened the crumpled paper ball.
There is a list of songs written above, all of which are very suitable for duets.
It turned out that Lin Zihang rejected her because he wanted to appear on the show with Su Xiaojiu...
Anya's eyes instantly turned red and she pinched the paper ball tightly.
In the following week, Tang Xin and Su Jiuyao prepared the program together. Although they were late when they registered, they practiced diligently and successfully passed the selection.
On the day they were notified of their selection, Tang Xin was overjoyed, and Jiuyao was also very excited. They immediately started practicing, trying not to make any mistakes on stage.
Unfortunately, three days before the school anniversary party, Tang Xin's palm was cut by a knife. The wound was very deep and it was impossible to recover in three days, so she could not perform on stage normally.
"I'm sorry, Xiaojiu. It's all my fault for being careless. I made you practice with me for such a long time in vain..." Tang Xin's eyes turned red with frustration.
Su Jiuyao shook her head, just curious about why Tang Xin cut her palm.
Tang Xin's eyes were a little evasive as she explained, "When I was peeling an apple, I accidentally dropped it on the ground and the knife cut my palm."
Su Jiuyao nodded and didn't ask any more questions, but she always felt that Tang Xin was hiding something from her.
In short, the plan for the performance was shelved. Although Su Jiuyao was not keen on going on stage, she had prepared for it for a long time, so she felt a little regretful.
After class that day, Su Jiuyao was about to leave the classroom when Lin Zihang stopped her.
"I heard that Tang Xin can't play the piano anymore. Is your show going to be canceled?"
Su Jiuyao nodded regretfully.
Lin Zihang said calmly, "Do you want to come?"
Su Jiuyao was stunned for a moment. Judging from Lin Zihang's expression, it seemed that he wanted to help her get the opportunity to go on stage.
"I do want to, but the piece was arranged for a duet between us. If I change it to a solo, the academy won't agree."
Lin Zihang shrugged, as if it was just a casual remark: "If you want to continue to participate, I can replace Tang Xin. Anyway, I am very skilled in playing that song."
