Reborn as an Ugly Wife in the Countryside

Chapter 588: Chapter 590: Young Master, Who Do You Think Played Well? Although everyone lost and had no chance to enter the final round, everyone still wanted to know who would end up with the Blood Jade, so no one left the scene, which remained impassable.

Wang Xiangxiang stood on the stage, looking confident and beautiful at this moment. The Blood Jade was right before her eyes, and if she won this final round, she would be able to secure it for Xiaoxiao. This round only allowed for success, not failure.

She looked towards Wen Nuan, who was likewise looking at her, displaying an easy grace that gave her a tranquil face. Yet, it was precisely this face where she could see a determined heart to win. Both smiled at each other, their eyes sparking with fire.

”The fourth round will be a test of piano skills, and for fairness, we will still draw lots to decide who will perform first.”

After hearing this, Wang Xiangxiang and Wen Nuan stepped forward together, extending their hands to draw the labels determining the order of performance.

”Sorry, I’ll go first,” Wen Nuan spoke up.

Wang Xiangxiang smiled and said nothing, leaving the stage to Wen Nuan.

”The fourth round is simple: both individuals will play a piece well-known to everyone—Music Journey.”

Indeed, Music Journey was a piece familiar to everyone, a graduation piece for anyone who learned the piano. It might seem simple, yet it held deep significance and was extremely capable of revealing a person’s foundational piano skills.

The atmosphere at the venue was incredibly tense. Everyone was almost holding their breath while listening to Wen Nuan play Music Journey, but soon Wen Nuan entered a wonderful state, easing the tense atmosphere with this piece, transporting everyone to a joyful musical realm.

Once the piece had ended, the venue was still silent, with everyone not yet relaxed from that mood. Wang Xiangxiang couldn’t help but admire this woman after hearing her play. She really was a true talent, and winning this competition was by no means assured for her.

At this moment, Xiaoxiao, beneath the stage, seemed even more nervous than Wang Xiangxiang. Her grip on Yang Ming’s arm grew tighter and tighter, causing him great pain.

The situation was quite disadvantageous for Wang Xiangxiang at this point, as Wen Nuan had already captivated everyone present. Even Xiaoxiao, who knew nothing about music, felt her performance was wonderful. Whoever performed next would likely seem reactive, and even if it was well-played, the audience might not feel the same as they had earlier.

It was Wang Xiangxiang’s turn now. She played with her eyes still closed, immersing herself in the wonderful sensations the music brought her, her delicate hands producing one beautiful note after another.

”Young Master, who do you think played better?” Ada asked at his side.

Han Yongsheng smiled slightly, ”Miss Wang played better.”

”Young Master, why can’t I tell the difference?” Ada was a bit puzzled as he felt both performances were quite similar.

Han Yongsheng did not explain, knowing that to match the mood of the previous performer, one must delve deeper into the heart and display superior skills. What seemed like a similar performance was significantly more challenging for the following performer.

After the piece had ended, Wang Xiangxiang opened her eyes, stood up, and bowed deeply to everyone. Regardless of the result, the competition had ended, and she had done her best.

Wang Xiangxiang and Wen Nuan stood on the stage, waiting for the result of the competition.

Backstage deliberated for a long time without coming to a decision. Finally, the host of the event came onto the stage and addressed the audience, ”Both individuals played exceptionally well, making it impossible to determine a clear winner, therefore this round can only end in a draw.”
