Song Zhu couldn't interject alone, so he had to eat silently with his head down.

She didn't know why the painting style had changed so quickly, and the two were still facing off in the last second.

Dad Song looked at the boy in front of him more and more satisfied, and looked at Song Zhu with a big smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Little bamboo! Your mom and I work outside all year round, and we can't take care of you, because we're sorry for you! Now that you are almost an adult, it is your freedom to do whatever you want, but you have to know that falling in love now is early love, and it doesn't affect your studies. This kid is good! You help each other and make progress for each other. ”

After thinking about it for a long time, Dad Song engaged in a deep and serious ideological struggle. Then he wiped his face and patted Xie Jue's shoulder, who was slightly stunned.

Song Zhu, "? Dad, what's going on. ”

Xie Jue, "......"

He glanced sideways at the girl's somewhat dazed and didn't know what to say, a smile curled up at the corner of his mouth, and he cleared his throat to relieve her, "It's not such an uncle, we are just at the same table, Song Zhu studies better than me, she works hard." ”

Dad Song seemed to automatically ignore the first half of the sentence, and the whole dinner was finished in an extremely embarrassing and weird atmosphere, Dad Song would raise his head from time to time while eating and look at Xie with a smile, which made Song Zhu's heart furious.

After eating, Song Zhu went downstairs to see Xie Jue.

"Xie Jue, don't take what happened just now to heart, don't be angry! My dad didn't know the truth, so he ......"

Song Zhu looked at Xie Jue a little embarrassed, and explained helplessly.

Xie Jue hooked the corners of his mouth and glanced away, "Why should I be angry?" Unexpectedly, your dad is quite open-minded. ”

After speaking, Xie Jue put his hands in his pants pockets and turned to leave.

Song Zhu was slightly stunned, "......"

The next few days passed very ordinary, Song Zhu studied, and Xie Jue practiced the piano. They found a music hall down the street.

Although it is a small shop, it is quiet and soundproof, and Xie Jue is practicing there. Soon, a week passed.

It's already April and May, and the temperature is slowly getting higher. The clothes worn by the people on the street are slowly becoming thinner.

The Convention and Exhibition Center in the Binhe District of Beijing is holding an international cello exchange competition today. Cello lovers from all over the world flock here.

Xie Jue was wearing a black suit, and Song Zhu was wearing a simple and atmospheric off-white light chiffon skirt. The two got out of the car and walked towards the preparation area.

The two of them are not eye-catching today, they can only be said to be ordinary and ordinary. But it makes people look fresh and peculiar at a glance.

The two sat in the rest area, waiting for the person in charge to arrange the rest of the matter. To this day, Xie Jue didn't tell Song Zhu which piece he was going to play.

said that he wanted to give her a perfect display on stage.

Xie Jue sat on the chair and looked at the piano score, and when he caught a glimpse of the girl sitting beside him obediently, the corners of Xie Jue's mouth hooked, and an inexplicable warm current surged in his heart.

Anyway, she came to play with her. It's something he's always dreamed of, and it's finally coming true today.

"Wow, isn't this the champion of our Youth City Trials?" A yin and yang strange aura, some shrill and sleek voices came.

Song Zhu raised his eyes and saw a thin boy with long bangs that almost covered half of his face.

The boy's face is unusually white, as if he has a lot of foundation, and he actually wears thick eye shadow, and he is wearing a red European-style dress, and his facial features are a little feminine, which makes him look even more nondescript.

Song Zhu saw that he remembered the replay of the tryout he watched that day. This person seems to be called Alan, a great genius from a musical family who transferred back from the UK. On that day, he only opened the gap with Xie Jue by 0.7 points, and he was somewhat unconvinced.

When Xie Jue saw him, a touch of disdain flashed in his eyes, and he lowered his head and continued to look at his piano score.

The neglected boys are really not happy.

"Xie Jue, right, what are you proud of? Don't you want to know what interesting things I've heard these days back home? The corners of Alan's mouth hooked, revealing a malicious smile.

Song Zhu next to him was a little unhappy, seeing Alan come prepared like this, no matter what he said, it would affect Xie Jue's mood, and thus his game.

"Mr. Allen, the game is about to begin, please give each other a little time to adjust to the stage and compete. Good luck with your playing. ”

Song Zhu took a step forward, stood in front of Xie Jue, looked at Allen, and said with a serious and polite smile.

Alan narrowed his eyes and glanced at Song Zhu, the corners of his mouth hooked up with a touch of disdain, and said sarcastically, "Who are you?" Xie Jue's sister? Is she also the illegitimate daughter of the Mu family? Hahaha! ”

Alan took two steps, stepped forward and stood in front of Song Zhu, put his face to Song Zhu's ear, looked at Song Zhu in an extremely strange posture, and glanced at Xie Jue again.

Then it flashed away at a very fast speed at the moment when Xie Jue's sharp eyes sent it.

"You said how good it would be for you to hide in the crowd! I have to stand on the stage to let everyone know that the cello champion is an illegitimate child, and his mother is still a shameless mistress. ”

"Destroying other people's families and stealing their lives is ...... I'm sure many people are extremely disdainful of this. Are you sure you're going to be on that stage again? Carry forward the scandal in your family?"

Alan's tone was a little pompous, he covered his stomach with one hand, and his face was full of ridicule and ridicule, as if he was saying to Xie Jue, you are going to laugh at me to death.

Hearing this, Song Zhu's face also darkened.

In fact, it was also mentioned in the original book that the mother who refused was Xie Guanghe's first love. It's just that Xie Jue's mother found out that Xie Guanghe actually had an engagement partner arranged by the family after she became pregnant, so she sneaked away.

Later, Xie Guanghe married Mu Jiangzhu's mother, so Xie Jue is not an illegitimate child in the real sense, and the mother who refused is not a mistress who destroys other people's marriages as rumored by outsiders.

Because Xie Jue and Mu Jiangzhu are of the same age, and the principle that it is not a big deal to watch the excitement with the wealthy circle, many people confuse the issue of first come, first come.

The expression of refusal could not be swallowed, and he looked up at Alan viciously, his fists clenched, and his eyes filled with bloodshots.

At this moment, Alan spat at him and walked away.

Seeing that Xie Jue's mood seemed to be affected, Song Zhu hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Xie Jue's hand, looking at Xie Jue with worried eyes.

"Xie Jue, listen to me, that person just wants to stimulate you, he doesn't want you to win the championship to say something like that, he did it on purpose. In fact, the Mu family's affairs have nothing to do with you. ”

"What the Mu family does, that's their own business, you are you, it's Xie Jue! It's a unique existence in the world, and you want to make your life shine......"

Feeling the warmth of his hand, Xie Jue's eyes darkened, and he looked up at the girl in front of him.

A wisp of softness surged into his eyes, and the corners of Xie Jue's mouth hooked, "I'm fine." ”

"Well, I believe you." Song Zhu also smiled.

At this moment, the person in charge came over and asked the players to go backstage to prepare.

Song Zhu hurriedly waved his hand and let Xie Jue go.
