Her gaze shifted back and forth between Lou Xinrou and Qiao Jing, helplessly seated and anxious.
People in the audience continued to talk, even those who had competed earlier joined in, feeling that their scores shouldn’t have been so low.
“Leave the judges’ panel! You’re not worthy!”
“Change the judge! I object to the score she gave me!”
“A layman better get out of here fast, don’t defile the piano, just leave!”
“Going backstage was disgusting enough, and now deliberately giving low scores, I think she can’t stand to see others do well! Truly disgusting!”
...
Su Manhan chuckled sarcastically and noticed that Qiao Jing suddenly stood up.
Everyone instantly fell silent, as Su Manhan thought Qiao Jing was about to leave.
“Can’t stand it anymore, right? Hurry up and leave!”
The crowd thought the same as Su Manhan; surely, she felt embarrassed and was preparing to leave.
When everyone was ready to see Qiao Jing leave the scene in defeat, they found that she actually walked onto the stage!
Su Manhan was stunned. What was Qiao Jing going to do? Could she be planning to get physical with Lou Xinrou?!
Lou Xinrou instinctively took two steps back, distancing herself from Qiao Jing, and asked softly, “What do you want to do?”
Qiao Jing didn’t even give her a glance and continued walking.
Zhan Nanqing had an unrealistic thought in her heart—could it be that she was going to play the piano? But wasn’t she unable to play?
Seconds later, Qiao Jing sat down in front of the piano, her slender hands on the keys, emitting a cool demeanor, her face still expressionless.
She pressed down the piano keys and started playing. It was the “Piano Concerto No. 3” that Lou Xinrou had just performed.
But what was completely different from Lou Xinrou was that Qiao Jing played more smoothly! She was very absorbed in playing, and although her face remained indifferent, the audience seemed to see confidence on her face.
Her fingers lightly struck the keys, heavenly notes flowing from her fingertips like babbling brooks and mountain streams, entrancing people into rapture, immersed in the sound…
As the piece concluded, the echoes lingered, and the audience found it hard to tear themselves away.
The audience realized what it meant to say, “The music exists only in heaven and is seldom heard by mortals,” as they were immersed in the melody without coming back to their senses.
Even laypeople could tell that Qiao Jing’s piano skills were leagues better than Lou Xinrou’s—not just smooth, but unimaginably delightful.
Master Wang and Master Li stood up and applauded for Qiao Jing, admiration in their eyes.
“You truly deserve to be Master Qiao. Having the chance to hear you play such a piece today is a true fortune.”
“Yes, indeed, since I last heard you play, I’ve learned so much. There really are higher skies beyond our own, and extraordinary talents beyond our understanding!”
“You flatter me too much. The two masters also play exceptionally well,” Qiao Jing responded.
“No, no, we’re the ones who are humbled by your modesty,” Master Li said with a look of honored surprise.
The audience was completely stunned; this scene was absolutely unheard of!
The contestants and professionals also recognized that it would take them ten years to even reach fifty percent of Qiao Jing’s level.
Qiao Jing nodded to the two masters on the judging panel, “Thank you, but it’s not all that impressive.”
She then took her seat back on the judging panel, and now everyone quieted down, looking down, not daring to make eye contact with Qiao Jing.
They had just criticized her, even saying she couldn’t play the piano, and yet she could not only play but played magnificently, to the point where even Masters Wang and Li felt inferior.
Perhaps her level was even higher than Master Chen’s!
Su Manhan was also shocked and immediately returned to her seat, whispering to Zhan Nanqing, “Nanqing, have you ever heard that Qiao Jing can play the piano?”
“No, I didn’t know she could play either. She’s amazing! Even I could tell she’s better than Xinrou…” Zhan Nanqing’s voice trailed off as Lou Xinrou came back.
Lou Xinrou was stunned as she listened to Qiao Jing’s performance, becoming completely absorbed until the music ended and she slowly came back to reality.
Then she faced the odd looks from the audience, as if they were blaming her for misleading everyone. She didn’t dare stay any longer; Qiao Jing’s rendition had left her face burning with shame.
After listening to it, Lou Xinrou realized Qiao Jing indeed had the qualifications to be a judge.
At this moment, Master Li and Master Wang were chatting with Qiao Jing, but their voices didn’t reach this far.
