Qiao Nian frowned and looked at her phone. She didn’t reply immediately.
She didn’t understand why Wen Ruxia asked her to do the question. Wasn’t Nie Mi more suitable?
The next second, Wen Ruxia sent another message.
[This test is mainly aimed at newcomers. You’re the leader of this batch of youngsters. It’s very suitable for you to come up with the question. If Master Nie does it, it’ll inevitably be unfair to masters in other music fields. We thought about it again and again before deciding to choose a question setter from the best of the new generation. I’ve asked Master Nie before, and he also thinks that you’re the most suitable person to be the question setter in China.]
Qiao Nian wasn’t interested in this at all, but Wen Ruxia then sent her a few more messages, probably hoping that she could help.
Wen Ruxia messaged her too frequently.
It was difficult for Qiao Nian to reject her kindness. It was more of a headache from her pestering. She narrowed her eyes and thought for a moment before replying.
[Then, let it be ‘reggae’.]
…
In the Qiao Family’s house.
Half an hour later, Qiao Chen received an internal message from Wei Ling.
“Reggae? Why would it be reggae? Hasn’t reggae music always not been in the mainstream? The final question for a formal event like the concert is actually reggae…”
Qiao Chen bit her lips in an indescribable strangeness. She hadn’t expected the final test of the concert to be an unconventional question like reggae.
Shen Qiongzhi brought her a cup of milk. When she saw that she was talking to Wei Ling on the phone, she gently placed the cup on the table and listened attentively.
“Is this a question from Zhui Guang?” Qiao Chen’s eyes flickered with jealousy. However, compared to Qiao Nian surpassing her, Zhui Guang surpassing her did not make her feel too uncomfortable. She said to Wei Ling on the other end of the line, “I understand, Aunt. I’ll be well prepared.”
With that, she chatted with Wei Ling for a while before hanging up.
Shen Qiongzhi stayed by her side until she finished the call before asking her carefully, “Chen Chen, what did your aunt say? Could there be a change in the music exchange?”
Qiao Chen had been admitted to Qing University, but she had been suppressed by that wild brat. She had long been angry. If something went wrong at the event too, she would be furious.
Fortunately, Qiao Chen didn’t give her the bad news. She put away her phone and replied, “No. There will be an assessment at the end of the concert. After the assessment, it will be to take in a disciple. Aunt called and told me the questions for this assessment.”
“Oh, then I’m relieved.” Shen Qiongzhi heaved a sigh of relief. She recalled the name she had just heard and said with a puzzled expression, “I just heard you talking about Zhui Guang on the phone…”
Qiao Chen didn’t hide anything from her.
“The questions for this test were chased out. She’s quite popular online with many fans. She’s very mysterious and has made a name for herself. Originally, she was invited, but she can’t come because of something. The organizer invited her to set the question.”
Hearing that, Shen Qiongzhi said casually, “Then, this Zhui Guang is quite powerful.”
Qiao Chen didn’t deny her words.
Shen Qiongzhi’s attention was placed on something else. She bent down and picked up the mug to hand it to her. She said with concern, “Don’t take these results too seriously. I don’t think Master Nie thinks much of her as a student. At least, she’s not qualified to participate in the event.”
“Mr. Steven is no worse than Master Nie. Prepare yourself. Perform well at this event. You’ll only be better than her in the future.”
Qiao Chen took the cup from her hand and took a sip of milk calmly. Her face was blurry under the hot milk, but her tone was calm and confident.. “Yes.”
