Chapter 595: Pre-competition Preparation
There was still some time before the school held the selection competition. All the music department students who had registered for the competition were practicing hard on the piano.
Jiang Yu was no exception. Even though she was not a music department student, she was a candidate personally recommended by Professor Bai. She absolutely could not disappoint Professor Bai.
However, even though Professor Bai was behind Jiang Yu, there were still many people who did not think highly of her.
This matter once again spread on the school’s forum, causing a huge commotion.
Someone commented below, “This backer of Jiang Yu is really something. First, she bought a troll army to buy tickets for the best actress award, and now, Professor Bai is recommending her to participate in an international piano competition.”
“But Jiang Yu isn’t even a music student, right? Isn’t Professor Bai’s favoritism a little too obvious?”
“She’s not even a music student, why would she recommend her? Is she trying to embarrass the school by recommending her?”
“It’s fine if it’s a piano competition organized by the school itself, but if Jiang Yu goes up and plays the piano, it’ll be treated as entertainment time for us. But this competition is jointly organized by the Cecilia University. If Jiang Yu goes up, it’ll be a disgrace!”
The people in Ivy League University were basically against Jiang Yu’s participation in the competition. Only a few people believed in Jiang Yu’s strength and believed that as long as she participated, she would definitely win the championship.
Lu Qi, Dai Zhu, and Tian Guo were among the few people who supported Jiang Yu the most.
They were all supporting Jiang Yu. No matter how harsh the words of others were, they had always supported Jiang Yu behind her back.
However, Jiang Yu had been practicing the piano recently, so she had no time to pay attention to what was happening on the forums.
It was not easy for her to have some time to rest, but Lu Qi and Dai Zhu stopped her from reading the posts on the school forum.
Jiang Yu was a little puzzled and asked, “What’s going on with you guys recently?”
Lu Qi said, “Nothing much. I just saw that you’ve been too tired from practicing the piano pieces recently, so I wanted to bring you to have some fun.”
Jiang Yu said, “There’s still a week before the school’s preliminaries, and an international competition is in a month’s time. How can I still have time to play?”
Dai Zhu quickly followed up, she said, “We know that you’re very focused on this competition, but you also have to know how to combine work and rest. If you sit in a chair for too long, it’s inevitable that your back will ache. So, go out for a walk and breathe in some fresh air.”
“That’s right,” said Tian Guo. “Jiang Yu, don’t you feel unwell these few days?”
Hearing her words, Jiang Yu also felt that her back and shoulders were a little sore, so she said, “It’s true that my back and back are a little sore. Let’s go out for a walk and get some fresh air like you said.”
Dai Zhu and Tian Guo each held Jiang Yu’s arm and were about to go to the new restaurant in high spirits. However, on the way there, they passed by a group of people who were discussing the matter.
The leader was a girl with dyed red hair. Tian Guo knew her. She was Guo Yuan, who was in the same class as her.
Guo Yuan was considered a beautiful girl with good looks and a hot figure in the class. She often acted arrogantly in the class, looking down on this person and that person because there were many people who liked her.
Tian Guo was one of them.
Guo Yuan was still discussing this matter with her little sister and her suitors when she saw Tian Guo out of the corner of her eye. She hurriedly stopped her and said in a sarcastic tone, “Isn’t this Tian Guo?”
Tian Guo didn’t like Guo Yuan, so she didn’t want to talk to her much. She only said, “Hello.”
Then, she wanted to leave quickly.
Guo Yuan blocked her way and did not let her leave. She looked at Jiang Yu and said, “Isn’t that Jiang Yu? Why is she playing with Tian Guo?”
Jiang Yu looked at her and asked, “What’s wrong?”
