Chapter 116 Can Students Do It?
Aunt?!
Mr. Cormier's aunt is Madam Chiang Kai-shek?!
Tu Yao glanced over instinctively.
Cormier quickly put away his thuggish demeanor and greeted her with a smile: "Auntie, you've arrived!"
Madam Jiang nodded slightly, glancing around at everyone present.
...They are all young children.
Behind Cormier, a young man with slightly curly hair quickly walked to the girl's side, pulled her close, and nervously examined her. After examining her, he looked at another young man.
"Brother, what's going on? Shouldn't you be in the venue?"
The young man who was called "big brother" was clearly quite angry.
Tapping the girl's head, he said, "I also thought she should be at the venue, but guess what? When I arrived, I saw her upstairs directing a massive army!"
The girl was very clever; seeing that her two brothers' expressions were not right, she immediately hid behind Xu Chi.
And this young leader of the port city truly protected people firmly.
Beside her stood a dark-skinned boy. Although his face was so dark that it was impossible to tell what emotions he was expressing, his eyes were also fixed on the girl.
Nan Ke realized what was happening and immediately said gently, "It's alright, brother, don't scold her."
Tu Chaoxi couldn't keep up the act any longer, so she pulled the person over and said irritably, "Let me see if you're hurt anywhere."
Tu Yao chuckled and quickly shook her head: "No, no!!"
Tu Chaoxi wasn't very convinced, so she grabbed the person and brought them over for inspection.
As Madam Jiang grew old, she probably no longer had the opportunity to enjoy the joys of family life. Seeing such a simple yet heartwarming scene, her eyes suddenly became slightly moist.
She quickly regained her composure, smoothed her hair, and said in a tone that was both calm and authoritative, "So, can someone tell me what's going on?"
Cormier's face darkened immediately; both of them were old men who had been by his side for many years.
Betrayed by an old friend, he felt as if a huge boulder was pressing down on his heart.
The bodyguards had already restrained the two nearly unconscious men together. Cormier glared at them fiercely and quickly asked someone to describe what had just happened.
As he listened, Cormier was stunned, his eyes gradually reddening, and he felt as if the huge stone in his heart had suddenly been lifted!
He suddenly turned his head and looked at the girl in front of him.
Tu Yao was still being examined by Tu Chaoxi. She had just broken free when, in the next second, she was grabbed by a pair of large hands!
"Why!!!!"
Caught off guard, she was pulled into Cormier's arms tightly!
The blond, blue-eyed man's eyes were red-rimmed, probably from being too excited, and he said in a mix of English and French, "Little mascot...you really are a little mascot!"
First, they resolved the issue of Nan Ke's plagiarism by providing him with a guest performer.
Then, a video call was made to warn of the danger, preventing everyone from suffering a serious injury.
Today, Cormier can't even imagine what the consequences would be for his lifelong musical career if the main switch in the equipment room were turned off!
But when the unexpected happened, it was her again. First, she gave him a security suggestion yesterday, telling him to prepare enough manpower. Then, today, she quickly discovered the anomaly and, with the help of these manpower, caught the person!
He was betrayed by his old acquaintances and friends, but he gained the kindness and protection of a little mascot!
Cormier was so excited he could hardly contain himself.
Tu Yao didn't quite understand what Cormier was babbling about, but she felt like she was about to suffocate if she was held any longer!
"Let go! Let go!!! I can't breathe!"
But Cormier, caught up in his excitement, wouldn't listen to anything he was told.
Tu Chaoxi's face darkened, and he quickly urged, "Mr. Cormier, let go immediately!"
Nan Ke frowned slightly: "Mr. Cormier, please release my sister!"
Xu Chi's gaze darkened, and he reached out and tapped the man's elbow.
Cormier was engrossed in the moment when, in an instant, a stimulating tingling sensation coursed through his entire body!
"Hiss—" He quickly let go.
Tu Yao finally breathed a sigh of relief, and couldn't help but look at Tu Chaoxi with a pitiful expression: "Brother..."
Chasing the bad guys went smoothly, but we almost fell victim to our own people!
The group of people immediately glared at Cormier with hostility.
Seeing this, the smile in Madam Jiang's eyes gradually replaced the moisture from before.
For some reason, her gaze toward Cormier also carried a hint of reproach.
Cormier finally came to his senses, smiled sheepishly at the sight, and immediately turned his gun around, ready to beat up his two old friends on the ground!
But just as he was about to use his fist, Tu Yao suddenly spoke up to stop him.
"Wait a minute, don't beat them up yet."
"What's wrong, little mascot!"
Cormier turned his head, and then, as if remembering something, his face darkened: "How can I not beat them up! Those two traitors who betrayed me, making you run around like this, I have to teach them a lesson!"
Tu Yao finally caught her breath and said helplessly, "...I think you shouldn't deal with them first."
Cormier was puzzled.
Tu Yao explained, "They're already here. You can question them whenever you want."
"Your concert is the most important thing right now."
"What I mean is..."
A hint of worry flashed in Tu Yao's eyes: "Do you have any alternative violinists?"
Cormier was taken aback when he finished speaking.
The next second, he frowned deeply.
This time, Madam Jiang's eyes inevitably welled up with deep admiration.
If she had just heard about the girl's actions, she would describe her as courageous, resourceful, and quick-witted.
Now, not only that, she can clearly recognize the unique qualities hidden within this girl.
This child also possesses a level of rationality and clarity that most people cannot maintain at all times.
She couldn't help but sigh. Rationality, how precious it is.
Many adults, like Cormier who is nearly forty, can still be blinded by anger.
...
Under Tu Yao's worried gaze, Cormier did indeed shake his head.
He said in a deep voice, "My team has three violinists. One is recuperating in France due to a broken hand, and the rest are the other two."
"Due to a shortage of manpower, all the violin pieces this time have been arranged to be mixed with piano pieces."
"My team has never had a substitute."
Upon hearing this, Tu Yao seemed to remember something and glanced at the two unconscious men on the ground.
He glanced again at the supporting guests behind Cormier.
She quickly looked away and subconsciously glanced at Nan Ke.
"Second Brother?"
The moment Tu Yao opened her mouth, Nan Ke quickly recalled the program schedule.
The pieces requiring violin performance are the fourth and sixth programs at the beginning, and there is still an hour until the next program.
There are two options: within an hour, either find a temporary replacement, or... cancel the program or change the program.
Cormier, a perfectionist with obsessive-compulsive disorder, was extremely anxious.
He scratched his head and muttered, "No! It absolutely cannot be canceled!"
Nan Ke calmly said, "But in the team, only I and another guest performer can play the violin."
Another guest whispered, "But we also provided the piano accompaniment for both of these programs."
Then the only solution is to find a temporary replacement.
Xu Chi said calmly, "The nearest orchestra is in a neighboring city. Even if we use a helicopter to pick them up, it would take three hours round trip."
The concert ended after three hours.
The scene fell into a deathly silence.
Tu Yao pursed her lips and subconsciously looked at Nan Ke.
Even though her second brother still had a gentle demeanor, she could still see a hint of disappointment in his eyes.
The long-awaited and meticulously prepared concert seems to have been ruined...
……no!
She won't allow it!
violinist...
violinist...
Tu Yao tapped her head.
Where can you find a violinist...?
etc……
Tu Yao suddenly looked up and slowly looked at Nan Ke in front of her again.
The next second, she turned her head and looked at Cormier, who had a somber expression.
She asked softly, "...Would students from the Yenching Conservatory of Music be suitable?"
