  This was the best evaluation Lin Ran had given tonight. However, Shen Sisi was not satisfied. She smiled and thanked him humbly, but in her heart, she was sneering. Become an outstanding violinist? She was a wealthy young lady. How could she become a violinist with no prospects? That was not what

  she wanted. She wanted a higher evaluation to raise her status, she wanted to become the object of everyone’s pursuit.

  There were countless violinists in the world. Lin Ran’s evaluation was of no use to her.

  Lin Ran had met countless people. He could see the disdain in Shen Sisi’s eyes at a glance. He wanted to say something more, but when he met Shen Sisi’s gaze, he suddenly lost interest. Instead, he turned his head to the back and asked with a smile, “Is there anyone else who wants to come up and give it a

  try?”


  Although that was what he said, he no longer held any hope.

  He was naive. These pampered young ladies were thinking of ways they could use to raise their status and marry into a wealthier family of a higher status. They were not trying hard to improve their violin skills.

  Hearing Lin Ran’s question, Ji Ning subconsciously moved forward by half a step, but she quickly retreated. She lowered her head and bit her lips.

  ‘When Ji Ning was young, she was kidnapped and sold to a small mountain village. The villagers there were unruly and unreasonable. The family that bought Ji Ning originally wanted to buy a son, but the human trafficker didn’t have a boy available. In order to facilitate this transaction, the human

  trafficker lied to the family and said that they could give birth to a boy if they bought her and named her Zhao Di. Unfortunately, they could not give birth to a boy even after buying Ji Ning and keeping her for several years.

  They vented their anger on Ji Ning by making her live in a pigsty, giving her animal feed to eat, and she got beaten and scolded every day. Living in this kind of living environment had caused Ji Ning to become introverted and cowardly. Every time there was a slight movement, she would be afraid. And

  every time she did something wrong, her whole body would tense up in fear, afraid that she would be beaten up.

  Later on, when she returned to the Ji family, the materialistic lifestyle had taken care of her bony body. However, the dark shadows of her childhood still lingered and followed her. Furthermore, her family was not very friendly to her. If anyone unintentionally said a word or looked at her with a mocking

  gaze, she would become afraid and uneasy, unable to control her tears.

  Ji Ning did not open her mouth to ask for anything, She did not dare to express her desires either, except for the violin.

  She remembered that on the day she returned to the Ji family home, the television in the living room was broadcasting a party. Lin Ran was standing on the stage and playing the violin. He was so immersed and the performance was so moving. It was as though only when he held the violin, would all the

  noise in the world have nothing to do with him.

  Such a small musical instrument could carry a range of emotions of a person, and it could make sounds that represented all kinds of emotions. Ji Ning could not help but yearn for it.

  Therefore, Lin Ran was her first idol.

  Sensing Ji Ning’s actions, Shen Hanxing paused slightly. Just as she was about to lean over and say something, she suddenly heard laughter. Such a burst of laughter was especially abrupt in a quiet environment.

  “Theard that the fifth miss of the Ji family likes to play the violin very much.”


  The voice belonged to a person who was part of a socialite circle that Shen Hanxing had never come into contact with before. She laughed evilly, “This is such a rare opportunity. Won’t the fifth miss of the Ji family go up and give it a try? Let Maestro Lin Ran listen to your high-level performance.”


  “Hahaha, high-level? From a lunatic with a mental illness?”


  The few girls surrounding her burst into laughter. Their waves of laughter were filled with ridicule.

  “Sun Qinglian,” Ji Qian was so angry that her face turned red. Her eyes widened, “Are you deliberately looking for a fight?”


  The Sun family was a company that had returned from abroad in recent years. They had some designs on § City’s commercial market. Sun Qinglian and her lackeys were constantly competing with the Ji family’s girls. They were trying to push the Ji family down from their position as they wanted a share

  of S City’s profits.

  “Fourth Miss Ji, what are you talking about?” Sun Qinglian chuckled. She curled her red lips and said, “I just wanted to give Fifth Miss Jia chance to showcase herself. Perhaps if she performs well, Maestro Lin Ran might even take a fancy to her. I’m doing this for her sake. How can you say that I’m looking

  for a fight? Looking at your attitude… do you think that she’ll embarrass the Ji family if she goes on stage and performs?”


  Ji Ning lowered her head and her body hunched, wishing she could curl up into a ball and hide. She tried her best to hold back her tears as she did not want to embarrass the Ji family by crying in public.

  She knew that she was worthless and a disgrace to the Ji family. She was not worthy of being a member of the Ji family. She was cowardly and useless, and she would only tamish the Ji family’s reputation.

  Ji Ning’s eyes were red, and tears were welling up in her eyes. If she was so embarrassing, sister-in-law would definitely hate her, right?
