294 The Fifth Symphony

Yan Bei was the only lively creature in this atmosphere. There was an inexplicable energy in him that could calm people down in an instant and gather everyone’s attention. He was a natural performer who should be bathed in everyone’s gazes.

He raised his well-proportioned and slender hands. Just as he touched the piano keys, a few passionate notes suddenly leaked out from his fingertips, as though they wanted to wake up all the depressed and indifferent people!

The sound of the piano seemed to have struck everyone’s hearts, forcing everyone to be shocked. The people sitting in the audience seemed to have been woken up by a thunderclap. Their eyes widened in surprise as they looked straight at the young man in the middle of the stage!

“Beethoven’s Symphony of Fate. Qingqing, your opponent is quite interesting! Is he challenging you?” Huo Qi leaned against the chair beside Su Qing. His superior arm length made it easy for him to pick up Su Qing’s ponytail. “You look really good in a ponytail. Can you tie it like this often in the future?”

Su Qing looked at Yan Bei on the screen. He was performing this famous piano piece excitedly.

“The fifth symphony in C minor, one of Beethoven’s most famous works. It’s not the most difficult, but it’s not easy to perfectly replicate the emotions and meanings that need to be expressed! Yan Bei is not bad.”

Su Qing didn’t move and let Huo Qi play with the ends of her ponytail, commenting pertinently.

Su Qian glared at Huo Qi fiercely, as though he couldn’t suppress the anger in his heart. He suddenly turned his head and looked angrily at Yan Bei on the projection. He took a deep breath and said, “This isn’t like Yan Bei’s usual personality. He’s not such an aggressive person. What’s wrong with him today?”

The teachers of Grinton and Yan Bei’s mentor, Teacher Wang, were also puzzled.

The masters who had been whispering in the audience at the beginning looked at each other in confusion. Why didn’t Yan Bei perform the designated song? It was really strange!

Teacher Wang stood behind the curtain and clenched his fists tightly. He also didn’t expect Yan Bei to suddenly break his plan and not play the more difficult and classy song that they had chosen previously. The chaos that followed made Teacher Wang uneasy.

The passionate performance ended. Yan Bei elegantly put away the last note. Everyone only regained their senses after about two seconds. The deafening applause echoed throughout the entire square nest. Although Yan Bei was their opponent, there were still people applauding and cheering for him.

This was also because Floyd was more tolerant and magnanimous than Grinton!

“Thank you, Grinton, for bringing us the Symphony of Fate. Next, please enjoy the performance brought by Su Qing from the directing department.”

The host, who had been pulled over at the last minute, introduced them politely.

Yan Bei bowed slightly and stood up straight before leaving the stage calmly. He was very confident that he had already done his best in this performance. Su Qing had no chance of defeating him.

Behind the stage curtain, Zhou Ling stood beside Su Qing and took a deep breath. It was unknown if he wanted to comfort Su Qing or himself.

“It’s fine! Even if our songs clash, it’s not our fault. Yan Bei chose it on his own. It’s not our fault. Qingqing, you’ll definitely be able to act better than Yan Bei! Don’t be afraid. Just do it!”

Hearing Zhou Ling’s words, Su Qing turned to look at him and teased him with a faint smile, “What am I afraid of? Are you afraid that Yan Bei will cry if he loses?”

Yan Bei, who had just walked behind the curtain, happened to hear this sentence. He smiled lightly and looked at Su Qing with a faint teasing gaze. “I haven’t cried much. If you really have the ability, feel free to try.”

Zhou Ling glanced at Yan Bei and said unhappily, “You clearly know that the song we chose is this Symphony of Fate. Why did you change your song at the last minute? Isn’t this inappropriate?”

As Zhou Ling spoke, he looked at Teacher Wang and said coldly, “Don’t you think so, Teacher Wang? Could it be that the students of your school are like this?”

Teacher Wang was speechless. He could only look at Zhou Ling and Su Qing resentfully.
