Chapter 665: Cabinet Elders

Translator: Tuiwen Editor: Tuiwen

President Tan raised his eyebrows as if daring him to say anything.

When Yao Ran and Master Zhang heard of the old man’s identity, their faces turned sheet white.

Master Zhang was speechless. Only when he recovered did he manage to shake out a,

“You’re the Cabinet Leader?”

“Do you have something you’ve wanted to ask me?” He nodded. “I heard that President Tan has done something outrageous. Do you mind elaborating further?”

After saying that, the old man glanced over at Yao Ran as if he had already seen through her act.

His sharp gaze made her own heart skip a beat.

A part of her wanted to pull Master Zhang over and walk away, but it was already too late. The middle-aged man was quick to reply to the details that had transpired during the assessment.

However, the only problem was that this was the version she had told him.

“Elder Xu, my disciple has participated in today’s assessment. The orchestra has received a grade of B, yet my disciple was still declared unqualified by President Tan,” he spoke hastily. “He was too selfish, ruining the hard work performed by my student. What do you think we should do about this?”

He clenched his fists.

This matter was President Tan’s fault. That’s why he had a clear conscience when it came to explaining the matter to Elder Xu.

What he didn’t know was that Elder Xu was the one who had disqualified her in the process.

Everyone fell silent.

Even President Tan couldn’t help but furrow his eyebrows. When did he become a judge?

He wasn’t even able to watch his student’s performance?

However, at the sight of Master Zhang’s indignant appearance, he couldn’t help but think if he had actually been there in the moment.

Elder Xu’s sharp gaze immediately fall onto Yao Ran. Realization flashed across his eyes. However, the young woman quickly bowed down.

“Teacher, it’s really not their fault,” she hurriedly insisted. “It’s my fault. I just have to be better next time.”

At this point, it was already too late for her to pull him away.

The corners of Yao Tang’s lips curled up into a smile. “She told you that?”

Master Zhang frowned. Was Yao Tang trying to direct the blame toward his student? “Do I need her to tell me? It’s obvious that what I’ve said was the truth!” he snapped.

Then, he quickly turned to the old man. “Elder Xu, please grant my student justice.”

Only then did President Tan scoff. “What justice? I didn’t even participate in the final assessment. I wasn’t even there! How could you say that my judgment isn’t fair?”

Hearing this, Master Zhang froze.

What did he mean?

He wasn’t there?

However, upon glancing at President Tan’s expression, he could tell that the man wasn’t lying about this either.

There was no need for him to lie about this, especially if he had really been caught in the act.

But did that mean that Yao Ran wasn’t telling the truth? What exactly was the truth? His head pounded as he tried to piece things together.

“I was the one who had declared her unqualified,” Elder Xu finally spoke. His voice was cold, and his brows were furrowed. “Do you have any objections to what I’ve just said?”

“I…”

He declared her unqualified?

At this moment, Master Zhang didn’t know what else to say.

Even Yao Ran’s face had turned deathly pale.

Nothing good ever happened when she met Yao Tang!

Every time she spoke, it was as if her words were being ripped out of proportion. Her fingers dug deeper into her palms.

“Your student’s fundamentals are weak. Do you think there’s a problem that I didn’t allow her to pass through the assessment?”

Master Zhang glanced over at his own student in disbelief.

Yao Ran didn’t dare look him in the eye. Her eyes were blurred with unshed tears, looking aggrieved.

Although Master Zhang was disappointed, he still continued to fight for her rights. “The Music Association has said that the individual’s talents would be judged by the band’s assessment level. How could the Association change the rules?”
