Ji Ning was stunned. She subconsciously looked up at her brothers and sisters.


“Xiao Ning, if you don’t want to go on stage, don’t force yourself,” Ji Qian felt a little awkward. However, she continued, “It’s your freedom to learn whatever you want to learn. It doesn’t matter how well you play the violin. Who cares about what they would say?”


Although Ji Zhou and Ji Yang did not speak, the way they looked at her was absolutely not filled with disdain or disgust. Instead, they looked at her gently. She had heard mostly insults and dismissals throughout her life. She had also habitually dismissed herself and was used to constantly retreating.


However, this time, she suddenly did not want to retreat.


Her brothers and sister’s figures had morphed into her strength. Shen Hanxing was by her side, holding her hand. It was as if an endless amount of energy had surged into her body, allowing her to stand up straight in front of everyone.

!!

The night was dark, and the sky outside the banquet hall was pitch black. However, at this moment, dawn had come for Ji Ning, Her bent back straightened gradually. Although her body was trembling from nervousness, her eyes were very, very bright. She nodded lightly at Shen Hanxing.


Shen Hanxing smiled and she raised her hand to pat the top of Ji Ning’s head. Her gaze turned to Sun Qinglian. She said, “If Xiao Ning plays a full piece of music, you and your friends will apologize to her in public. How about it, Miss Sun?”


Sun Qinglian and the socialites beside her looked at each other.


“Apologizing isn’t a big deal to me. I don’t believe that this trash can really make a name for herself,” Sun Qinglian gritted her teeth. “No matter how much trouble Shen Hanxing makes, she can’t make Ji Ning play the violin perfectly out of thin air!”


“That’s right.”


The girl beside Sun Qinglian also nodded. “She started acting crazy after getting a little attention tonight. She doesn’t know where she stands. Let’s teach her a lesson today!”


Shen Hanxing had left too deep an impression on them tonight. The other socialites hesitated. However, since Sun Qinglian nodded, they could only follow suit.


“Alright, I agree.”


Sun Qinglian raised her voice and said, “But I also have a condition. If Ji Ning can’t perform a full piece of music, I want you to bow down and apologize to me in front of everyone, Mrs. Ji!”


“No problem,” Shen Hanxing replied without hesitation.


After she replied to Sun Qinglian, she tuned around and smiled at Ji Ning, She said, “Xiao Ning, whether or not I can save my pride today will be all up to you now.”


Her tone was relaxed, without any hints of negative emotions. It was as if she firmly believed that Ji Ning could do it. Ji Ning clenched her fists, and she became more resolute.


“Don’t be afraid. No matter what happens, we are here for you,” Ji Qian walked up uncomfortably and gave Ji Ning a hug. “We, the Ji family, are never afraid of trouble.”


If Ji Ning really didn’t perform well, at worst, they wouldn’t admit their loss. Or she could apologize to them on behalf of her sister-in-law. There was always a solution.


Ji Zhou, who hardly interacted with Ji Ning, lazily rubbed Ji Ning’s head. He said, “Your second brother is here for you too.”


Ji Yang also said, “It’s fine. If it really doesn’t work out, I’ll go beat up the Sun family members. Doesn’t Sun Qinglian have an older brother? I’ll beat him to death!”


Since Sun Qinglian was bullying his younger sister, he would go and bully Sun Qinglian’s older brother. It was the perfect plan!


However, when he was saying those harsh words, Ji Yang secretly glanced at Shen Hanxing. He did not forget the consequences of the previous fight… However, even if his sister-in-law wanted to beat him up this time, he would not back down from this. If he said he would beat up Sun Qinglian’s older


brother, he would definitely do so!


Shen Hanxing smiled as she watched this scene. She did not stop them from supporting Ji Ning even with Ji Yang uttering those harsh words. This act of supporting their sister was a good thing. Why would she punish them for it?


Shen Hanxing held Ji Ning’s hand as they walked up the stage step by step. Wherever they passed by, the socialites who had previously approached them to chat would look at them encouragingly and cheer them on softly.


The countless encouragements she had received in this short walk to the stage formed a certain kind of warm and resolute strength. This strength morphed into a pillar that supported her weak shell.


Many years later, Ji Ning would step onto a bigger stage. She would walk on an even longer red carpet, and she would walk through a crowd. No one held her hand, but her steps were still firm and calm, and her eyes would not flicker in the slightest. Because she knew that from that night onwards, she


would never dismiss herself, and she would never doubt whether she should have been born.


She was not wrong.


However, at this moment, she had only just begun to embrace her new life. She stood on the stage, trembling a little as countless gazes focused on her.


The fingers holding the bow were curled up and trembling. The very light bow seemed to weigh thousands of kilograms at this moment. It was as if she did not even have the strength to put the bow on the string..
