After settling the clothes, Su Nan brought Qin Ran to the dressing table. After all, it was a large-scale event, and the school had also hired a few makeup artists for the students.

  Qin Ran rarely puts on makeup. She would at most touch up her eyebrows and put on lipstick. Therefore, when she suddenly saw her full makeup self in the mirror, she felt a little unfamiliar.

  “Student Qin Ran, I’m so envious of you. Your appearance after putting on makeup is too tempting although you’re already very good-looking without makeup!” Su Nan grabbed Qin Ran’s shoulders with both hands and said seriously.

  “That’s right, that’s right. After you change your clothes later, you can sit in front of the piano and play a song. You will definitely be able to charm all the boys in our school. When the time comes, what has the school belle election got to do with Qin Xue?”


  Qin Ran listened to Su Nan and the class monitor chatting casually. She looked at the time on her phone. The party should start in an hour.

  Before Xia He could come back with the clothes, Qin Xue came first.

  Hearing the screams of the boys in the crowd, Qin Ran looked over and not only saw Qin Xue, but also Xing Li, who was beside her, and Qin Fei, who was wearing sunglasses and a mask.

  Qin Fei was a public figure in the entertainment industry after all. It could be seen how much he favored Qin Xue for him to appear at such an occasion with such disguise.

  “Sister, the party is about to begin. Haven’t you changed your clothes yet?” Qin Xue looked concerned on the surface, but she was secretly happy in her heart. She guessed that Qin Ran didn’t have any decent clothes. So what if she was the top scholar of the college entrance examination? She was a wild girl from the countryside and her taste would always be so old-fashioned.

  “It’s none of your business!” When she saw Qin Xue walking over, Su Nan stood in front of Qin Ran to protect her.

  “Where did you come from? How dare you speak to my sister like this!” Qin Fei couldn’t bear to see Qin Xue suffer any grievances, so he couldn’t help but retort to Su Nan.

  “You’re one of the three brothers of the Qin family. You’re the kind of person who would side with outsiders.” He didn’t dote on his biological sister and was only busy serving his adopted daughter. Wasn’t he siding with outsiders?

  “You…”


  Qin Fei, who still wanted to flare up, was pulled back by Qin Xue. At this moment, she was not in the mood to talk to them. She only wanted to stun everyone at the party. When she thought about how all her classmates would look at her with envy and admiration when she was mentioned in the future, she felt as if she had drunk something sweet.

  Qin Ran didn’t want to waste her breath. She couldn’t care less about how good Qin Xue’s performance was. She couldn’t care about it, and she didn’t want to. She only hoped that she could play the piano perfectly and not embarrass the class.

  The party began. Qin Xue’s performance was the fifth.

  When she stood on the stage exquisitely from head to toe, there was thunderous applause below the stage. They had probably long heard that there was a beauty in the pharmaceutical department called Qin Xue, and she was really quite good-looking after they took a look at her.

  Qin Xue enjoyed all those gazes filled with admiration. After playing the piano, it was also very perfect.

  The cheers and applause below the stage became even more enthusiastic.

  The host also followed up and asked, “Student Qin Xue, you play the piano so well. Do you have any skills?”


  Qin Xue had long thought about it. No matter what the host asked, she had to find an opportunity to bring out Qin Ran’s name. She also had to specially pull up the expectations of everyone towards her. This way, when she really played that lousy piano technique, everyone would compare her in their hearts. Only then would there be a difference between heaven and earth.

  “Actually, my piano playing isn’t considered good. My sister, Qin Ran, is the best in the world.” Qin Xue had a generous and appropriate smile on her face. In the eyes of everyone, she was completely a pure little white flower.

  When Qin Ran, who was in the contestant seat, heard this, she rolled her eyes helplessly. This Qin Xue was too much like a plaster. No matter what, she couldn’t get rid of her. She could implicate her in everything.

  “Then we’re really looking forward to Student Qin Ran’s performance.” The host smiled brightly and continued, “The next segment is a dance. After that, it’s Student Qin Ran’s piano solo.”


  About ten minutes later, Qin Ran appeared on the stage in her student uniform and boots. At first glance, her clothes were naturally not as eye-catching as Qin Xue’s.

  Qin Ran didn’t care. Her fingers danced quickly on the piano keys. The prelude was elegant and smooth. Unknowingly, everyone’s thoughts were guided by the notes of the piano and gradually entered a good state.
