Chapter 718: Have More Self-confidence
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
When Li Wanru heard Su Jin’s words, the corners of her mouth couldn’t help but twitch. Why did Sister Hou seem unreliable? Hou Wan’er didn’t care about any of that. She was full of smiles as she replied proudly, “My memory is extremely good.”
“I was young and ignorant back then. I know that you’re a woman of many talents.”
“Not only are you talented, but you are also extremely beautiful.”
Su Jin felt a little helpless as she looked at Hou Wan’er’s shameless expression. She was clearly bearing a grudge, yet she responded with that. It was just that Su Jin hadn’t been composing for a long time; she didn’t know if she could still do it.
Su Jin said with a bitter smile, “You really have a lot of confidence in me.”
!!
“I’ll try my best.”
Li Wanru looked at both and suddenly felt that this wasn’t a reliable strategy. However, it didn’t really matter. She was already contented that she had come this far. If it weren’t for Su Jin, she might not have even made it to the semi-finals.
Li Wanru said, “Sister Hou, Sister Su, don’t worry.”
“It’s fine even if you can’t compose something.”
“I’m already very happy that I made it this far given my skill level.”
“My mom even made an extra egg for me this morning as a reward.”
Su Jin and Hou Wan’er looked at each other when they heard this. They knew that Li Wanru’s family wasn’t well off and this might be the last time she could partic.i.p.ate in any piano compet.i.tion.
Su Jin patted Li Wanru’s back and said consolingly, “Don’t worry, there shouldn’t be any problem.”
Ten minutes or so later, Su Jiaojiao’s results were out. She had undoubtedly advanced to the next round because the judges gave her all kinds of compliments. A while later, Su Qiaoqiao’s also made it to the next round as the judges continued to flatter the president’s daughters.
When Su Jiaojiao heard that the judges seemed to think more highly of Su Qiaoqiao, she clenched her fists angrily and a hint of hatred flashed across her eyes before she put on a sisterly look again.
Li Wanru said helplessly after seeing that, “There are only so few spots in the finals and the princesses have taken up two.”
“It really looks like I won’t make it.”
Su Jin looked at Su Qiaoqiao and Su Jiaojiao with a complicated expression. They had many privileges as princesses. Even partic.i.p.ating in this compet.i.tion was so easy. But Su Qiaoqiao’s delicate appearance looked so familiar…
Su Jin consoled Li Wanru, “You still have hope, trust me.”
Hou Wan’er held Li Wanru’s hand and consoled her too. The scariest thing in a compet.i.tion was to become too nervous and end up not performing well.
After consoling Li Wanru, Hou Wan’er nudged Su Jin with her shoulder and said, “Su Jin, did you see that? That princess looks exactly like you. How do you feel about that?”
“Yes, and the princess’ voice. I feel like I’ve heard it somewhere before.”
At this moment, Li Wanru also noticed that the princess looked exactly like Su Jin. If Su Jin wasn’t standing beside her, she would have mistaken the princess for Su Jin too.
Li Wanru asked curiously, “Sister Su, do you think it’s possible that you and the princess are twins?”
Su Jin’s face darkened when she heard this. She had never heard about this. Even her uncle hadn’t mentioned anything like that. How could this be possible? Furthermore, this princess’ delicate appearance looked extremely familiar.
Su Jin mumbled to herself in confusion, “Is it possible?”
Hou Wan’er’s face lit up when she heard this. That’s right. How could they look identical unless they were twins? This might very well be the truth. She said excitedly, “G.o.d, you’re so smart.”
“I didn’t expect that you’d be able to solve the mystery with just one sentence.”
“Other than twins, no one else would look so alike.”
Hou Wan’er then turned and hugged Su Jin, her face filled with excitement. If this was true, wouldn’t Hou Wan’er be a princess’ bestie in future? She’d have all the confidence to brag then.
Hou Wan’er then said to Su Jin, “Su Jin, I think you should go and get a strand of Su Qiaoqiao’s hair later.”
“Quickly get a DNA test done. Maybe you two are really twins.”
Su Jin frowned as she fell into deep thought. Something felt amiss, but she couldn’t put her finger on it. This person felt very familiar, but she had never seen or heard of her before.
Su Jin thought for a moment before she replied, “Wouldn’t it be better to get a strand of the president’s hair than Su Qiaoqiao’s?”
