Chapter 561: 561 Bad Friends
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
A few days before the piano competition, Tao Yue invited many doctors to come back to treat her wounds. She even found a few very good cosmetic hospitals. Even if she couldn’t cure her wounds, she could at least cover them up.
On the day of the competition, Tao Yue got up early in the morning to put on her makeup. Her dress was specially custom-made. It was black with crystals on it. Under the sunlight, the crystals sparkled, making her look like a princess.
Tao Yue looked great. She had fair skin and a well-proportioned figure. In this black dress, she looked noble, elegant and mysterious. Moreover, she had put on the jewelry she had designed today. This necklace suited her outfit quite well.
“Mommy!” Tao Yue greeted Second Aunt Tao when she saw her coming in.
Second Aunt Tao saw Tao Yue and praised her with a smile, “My Yue Yue is so beautiful!”
Tao Yue was smiling so hard that her eyes couldn’t be seen. “Mom, I’m not that pretty.”
“You are!” Second Aunt Tao said, “Yue Yue, don’t be nervous. I believe that you will get good results.”
Tao Yue nodded. “Mom, don’t worry. I’ll do well in the competition.”
For the past few days, she would spend four to five hours practicing the piano every day. During the holidays, she spent almost every day in the piano room. Now that her piano skills had improved a lot, she could play the piano music that she was going to play in the piano competition with her eyes closed.
As long as there were no accidents, Tao Yue would definitely get a good ranking. If she performed well, she could get first place.
“Yue Yue, don’t be nervous, and don’t care too much about your placings. As long as you go on stage and perform your song completely, 1 will be incredibly proud of you.” Second Aunt Tao didn’t want to put too much pressure on Tao Yue. Tao Yue had been practicing the piano very hard recently. She was worried that Tao Yue would be nervous when she went on stage and not get any results.
Although Second Aunt Tao didn’t care about the competition results, she knew that Tao Yue cared about the results. If Tao Yue didn’t care about getting a good results in the competition, Tao Yue wouldn’t have spent so much time practicing the piano.
“Yes, yes.” Tao Yue agreed.
“Yue Yue, you really don’t need me to come with you?” Second Aunt Tao asked again.
“Mom, I’ll be nervous if you go with me,” Tao Yue replied.
“Plus, my teacher will be by my side. You don’t have to worry about no one accompanying me. Besides, you didn’t accompany me in the previous competitions. I won’t be able to adapt if you go now.”
Second Aunt Tao was convinced by Tao Yue. Sometimes, it was just as Tao Yue said. It was easy for children to be nervous when their parents were present. Therefore, every time Tao Yue participated in a competition, Second Aunt Tao would not go to the venue. She would only pick Tao Yue up at the door after the competition.
After Tao Yue was ready, Second Aunt Tao sent her out. At the entrance, they met Tan Rou, who was also waiting for a car.
“Is Xiao Rou going out too? Why didn’t you arrange for a chauffeur to send you out?” Second Aunt Tao asked kindly.
Tan Rou had a good impression of Second Aunt Tao, so she smiled politely and replied, “There’s no need to trouble the driver. Someone is coming to pick me up.”
“Big Cousin, who’s here to pick you up?” Tao Yue asked subconsciously. “Your friend?”
Tan Rou didn’t plan to tell Tao Yue right now. “We can be considered friends.” The person who came to pick her up was Hang Wei. They were both friends and business partners.
Tao Yue said sarcastically, “Eldest Cousin, you’ve just returned to the Capital and you’ve already made friends. That’s not bad! However, there are all sorts of people in a huge city like this and they may not be all good people. You have to take a good look at whether your friends are good or bad. Don’t be friends with those who are bad.”
Tan Rou was notwilling to be outdone. Instead, she asked, “Is Second Cousin talking about Meng Xiao?”
Tao Yue’s smile disappeared immediately. “I’ve stopped talking to her,” Tao Yue emphasized.
Tan Rou nodded slightly. “Second Cousin, you’d better keep your word. Otherwise, you won’t be able to explain yourself if Meng Xiao appears with you again.”
Second Aunt Tao also agreed with Tan Ron’s words. “Yue Yue, you’re going to the competition today which is why 1 don’t want to distract you with anything else. Anyway, you should focus on the competition. Don’t think about other people or things.”
“Mom, 1 know.” Tao Yue replied. Then, she looked at Tan Rou. “Is the friend that Eldest Cousin is waiting for not here yet? Why don’t I give you a ride first? I’m going out too.” Actually, she wanted to see what kind of friends Tan Rou had made in just a few days. She wanted to see if they were from the big families in the Capital..
