CHAPTER 1261: CHAPTER 246: COURTING DEATH, HIDDEN DEPTHS_7

Dongfang Yi spoke eloquently, her smile broad and graceful, already attracting the attention of many men.

"The words sound prettier than the song," Yun Ya sneered inwardly.

Yan Song placed a hand on her shoulder, asking softly: "What’s wrong?"

Yun Ya shook her head with a smile, leaning against his shoulder: "Nothing."

Huo Chanyi was the closest to them, watching their intimate interaction, not allowing anyone else to intervene at all. She envied such a relationship. People said Ji Yunya wasn’t worthy of Yan Song, but she thought, if Ji Yunya wasn’t worthy, then who in this world could be?

Dongfang Yi?

Huo Chanyi laughed. This woman was the best at pretending to be magnanimous and gentle, but in truth, she was the most hypocritical. If you peeled off those layers of masks, what did she really have besides her family background?

Then she thought of Ah Ci and glanced in her direction, feeling a bit uneasy.

Is Ah Ci really as she thought?

Song Jinwen stood up and said: "Sister Yi, I’ve bet with Yan Xing that I’ll compete in ten talents with her today, how about I warm up the crowd first?"

As soon as Song Jinwen finished speaking, everyone was astonished. Who didn’t know that Yan Xing had no talents? Was she crazy to bet with Song Jinwen?

Yan Xing noticed everyone looked at her with ridicule, her cheeks flushed red. Song Jinwen turned to her, smiling: "Yan Xing, do you remember our bet?"

Yan Xing raised her eyebrows: "Of course I remember." She instinctively glanced in Yun Ya’s direction.

Song Jinwen glanced at Ji Yunya, a cold smile flashing in her eyes: "You have Miss Ji compete on your behalf, and Miss Ji agreed, didn’t she, Miss Ji?"

Suddenly, the chatter grew louder. No matter how arrogant Song Jinwen might seem, she possessed real talent. Her piano playing was truly exceptional, earning the title of Piano Prodigy. If she wanted to compete with someone, it would surely be with the piano. Was Ji Yunya insane? Competing with Song Jinwen in piano was obviously courting death.

The disdainful gaze directed at Ji Yunya was blatant. Did she think she was beyond her depth just because she caught the attention of the Yan Family? Jumping out to steal the spotlight so eagerly without considering her own abilities was laughable. How could Yan Song be interested in such a woman?

Yan Song’s gaze turned icy, glaring coldly at Song Jinwen, who was somewhat intimidated by his aura. Then she thought of Ling Danxiao yelling at her for that bitch, her fury had nowhere to go. Today, she had to vent it on Ji Yunya.

Yun Ya gently patted Yan Song’s hand, smiling lightly: "Brother Yan, watch closely."

Yan Song looked at her with concern, his fingers caressing her face: "Don’t push yourself."

He knew her reasons clearly, wishing he could take her away immediately, but he couldn’t do that. He had to respect her wishes.

Their chemistry treated everyone else as if invisible, openly flaunting their love. The most intolerable was Song Baobao. Why did she end up with such a fate while the instigator still enjoyed male adoration? It was unfair.

Her gaze shimmered over Yan Nangui, whose eyes were fixed on Ji Yunya with interest. Looks like her guess was right.

With a cold laugh, she sent a discreet signal to the Wine Attendant in the shadows, who nodded in response.

"What’s wrong? Are you scared? If you admit defeat now, I’ll consider you sensible," Song Jinwen sneered.

Yun Ya stood up gracefully, "Who said I’m admitting defeat? Naturally, it should be a fair competition. Miss Song, feel free to choose."

"Heh... such arrogance. It’s good to have confidence, but being overconfident is foolish," Song Jinwen thought herself unrivaled in piano. According to her research, Ji Yunya had never played the piano on any occasion. She assumed Ji Yunya couldn’t play at all. She believed Ji Yunya was pretending, waiting to see how she would suffer humiliation.

"I’ll return the same words to Miss Song," Yun Ya replied sweetly, her pure and charming demeanor captivating many men present.

"Alright then, I’m waiting for Miss Ji to amaze us," Song Jinwen sneered. "Ten talents, piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, wine, flowers, tea, horseback riding, judo. We’ll start with piano. So the piano here means the grand piano, what do you think, Miss Song?"

Yun Ya smiled and nodded: "No problem."

Then she frowned slightly: "If we compete simultaneously, the piano sounds will be chaotic. How will we determine who wins or loses?"

Song Jinwen presented two sets of sheet music: "One is the entry-level D major Canon, and the other is the world’s most difficult piano piece, the Third Piano Concerto. Which do you choose?"
