Her face was filled with disbelief!
How could that be!
How dare Qin Yajing show her face again!
Rumors about Qin Yajing and Zhou Zhou are spreading everywhere! And the entire Lu family is talking about it!
How dare she come back!
........
Half an hour later.
The stadium in Country A is also the venue for today's Youth Piano Competition.
Qin Yajing appeared, wearing sunglasses and a mask, holding Chengcheng's hand.
After all, she's a big star.
Moreover, she has been embroiled in controversy recently, so although Qin Yajing came with Chengcheng, she was fully disguised.
The main point is to ensure that no one recognizes her except Chengcheng.
After all, if it causes a disturbance, it will affect Chengcheng.
It was probably because Xia Weiwei kept emphasizing how sacred and important the piano competition was to Chengcheng beforehand that Chengcheng became extremely nervous after arriving.
His small face was tense.
The little hand that was holding Qin Yajing's was sweating profusely.
Qin Yajing noticed Chengcheng's nervousness and comforted her, saying, "Chengcheng, don't be afraid. Let's just treat this as a small experience."
Chengcheng raised her head, seemingly wanting to say something but then stopping herself.
After a long pause, he finally asked, "Auntie, if I don't get first place, will you be disappointed? Will Dad not like me anymore?"
Chengcheng has become much more confident lately.
But ultimately, the long-term PUA (Pick-Up Artist) treatment made his sensitivity and fear of not being good enough and being disliked by his father deeply ingrained.
Therefore, in such a tense situation, Chengcheng couldn't help but reveal her negative side.
Seeing this, Qin Yajing picked up Chengcheng and looked at Chengcheng at eye level.
She said, "Chengcheng, to be honest with you, I really hope you get first place, I really hope so."
Upon hearing this, Chengcheng became even more nervous.
It wasn't until Qin Yajing said something next that Chengcheng's tense emotions finally relaxed.
Qin Yajing hadn't finished speaking.
She continued, "Because Auntie knows that you started learning piano when you couldn't even use chopsticks yet, and although Auntie hasn't personally experienced how hard it must have been for you to learn for so many years, I can imagine it."
"Therefore, your aunt hopes you will get first place because she wants your efforts to be rewarded. Although it is a bit ridiculous to use results to affirm a person, there is no other way. That's how society is now. There's a saying that goes, if you can't change society, then you have to adapt to it."
"But Chengcheng, although Auntie has told you all this, I also want to tell you that even if you don't do well in this piano competition, or even if you only get last place, I will not be disappointed in you, and your father will not dislike you because of it."
"Your hard work and excellence are evident to your father and me. Although society values a person based on rankings, your father and I don't. So no matter what your ranking is, you'll always be the best in my heart!"
At this point, Qin Yajing shrugged: "And it's okay, it's not like the world is going to end tomorrow. This piano competition is a once-in-a-lifetime event, so even if we don't get a good ranking today, we'll have another one!"
Upon hearing this, Chengcheng finally felt relieved.
He said, "Auntie, I'm suddenly not so scared anymore."
Once she was less nervous, Chengcheng's confidence returned.
He said, "Although my aunt is not here these days, I have the driver take me to Teacher Zhou's place every day. With Teacher Zhou's guidance, I am sure I can get a good ranking. After all, Teacher Zhou is the best piano master in the world!"
And he's Teacher Zhou's student, so he can't be bad, right?
At this point, Chengcheng added, "Besides, Auntie said that even if it doesn't work this time, there's always next time. It's not like the world is ending tomorrow."
Qin Yajing immediately smiled.
She said, "Chengcheng, that's right!"
Qin Yajing smiled at Cheng Cheng.
Chengcheng smiled at Qin Yajing as well.
The scene of the two smiling at each other, looking incredibly relaxed, is quite unique.
Because besides Chengcheng, many other children participated in the piano competition, either accompanied by their parents or tutors.
At this moment, these parents and tutors are all speaking to their children with serious expressions.
"Today's piano competition is very important, you know? You must be extremely focused! You absolutely cannot make any mistakes! Even if you can't get first place, you must get second place!"
"You're not allowed to joke around with me like this in this piano competition. If you don't get a good ranking today, you're not allowed to come home for dinner tonight, and you'll have to practice piano for five hours every day from now on."
"Xin Xin, you must not let your teacher down. If you don't get a good ranking in the piano competition, your parents will fire your teacher. You don't want your teacher to be fired by your parents, do you?"
"Leilei, you must make your mother proud! If you don't get a good grade, how can your mother be proud in front of your father? You must not let your mother down!"
“.......
Children are innocent.
Their world is even simpler.
But the adult world is complicated.
Now, however, adults are transferring their complexities and pressures onto children.
This made all the children participating in the competition extremely serious and nervous, and some of them were even so nervous and scared that they almost cried.
It was as if this was not a piano competition, but a life-or-death contest.
Chengcheng noticed the tension and unease of the other children.
