    “Mei Mu, do you know what your biggest w is?” Zhao Min sighed softly.


    “Your biggest problem is that you arc too arrogant andcent. You are not humble at all and unwilling to acknowledge your shorings. By continuing like this, you will only confine yourself to a limited level and find it difficult to achieve better results.”


    Mei Mu’s eyes were filled with disbelief.


    She couldn’t believe that she had such a high level of aplishment in piano ying, yet she found herself hearing the words “ws” and “shorings” from someone like Zhao Min.


    Zhao Min actually said that she was being arrogant andcent?


    The initial resentment and anger gradually subsided.


    Mei Mu regained herposure.


    Zhao Min thought her words had an effect, and her eyes brightened. “If you can understand that, you can alwayse to practice the piano. You’re indeed a talented child, and as long as you’re willing to humbly listen to your teacher’s advice, you will have a broader future.”


    “No need.” Mei Mu interrupted her words expressionlessly, her voice turning cold. “Teacher, regardless of anything, are you determined to have Mei Shu rece me in thepetition?”


    Zhao Min was taken aback for a moment, quickly realizing that her expression just now didn’t imply agreement. Anger surged back up in her heart. “Yes.”


    Mei Mu suddenly curled her lips into a smile, a coldugh escaping her. With a hint of disdain, she said, “Alright, teacher, don’t forget the position my aunt holds in the piano world. As long as she speaks up, do you think I can’t secure a spot in a small school pianopetition?”


    “So, you still want to participate in thispetition?” Zhao Min’s face also turned cold.


    Mei Mu thought Zhao Min was afraid and burst intoughter. “Don’t worry, Teacher. I just want you to know how ridiculous your choice is.”


    Zhao Min, known as the gentlest teacher in the school, couldn’t help but be stirred by the insolent and arrogant student before her. Herpetitive spirit was ignited.


    She suddenly stood up and walked up to Mei Mu, looking down on the student who looked down on others. “Alright, I’ll wait and see. In the end, between you and Mei Shu, who will win.”


    Mei Mu was confident that she wouldn’t lose to Mei Shu. Her eyebrows raised, and the smile on her lips became more sarcastic. “There’s one thing I need to make clear beforehand. If I win, your name shouldn’t appear as the guiding teacher.”


    Was she trying topletely cut ties with her?


    Zhao Min’s lips curled into a smile. “I also have that intention. However, I believe Mei Shu’s piano skills surpass yours. She won’t lose to you.”


    Mei Mu found itughable, as if she had heard the biggest joke. She shook her head disdainfully and said, “Teacher, you’ve been deceived by Mei Shu. Do you really think she’s a genius? She yed that piece just now quite well, but are you not worried that she only knows how to y that one piece? Can you really believe it?”


    “What do you mean? Mei Shu’s performance was emotionally moving. It’s not something that can be achieved overnight. Even you wouldn’t be able to achieve such an effect. How can she only know how to y that one piece?” Zhao Min frowned tightly, refusing to believe Mei Mu’s provocative words, but she couldn’t help but feel a slight unease in her heart.


    Mei Mu sneered and said, “Let me tell you the truth. Mei Shu practiced the piano only a few times when she was a child. She never even took any graded exams and was sent to the countryside for recuperation. She hasn’t touched the piano in years. Do you really think someone like that can represent the school in apetition? Are you expecting her to secure a good ranking for you? Don’t make meugh!”


    Zhao Min’s heart skipped a beat.


    She didn’t expect that Mei Shu hadn’t touched the piano for years, not even taking any graded exams.


    But the piece she yed just now couldn’t be mastered overnight.


    Even Mei Mu aside, she doubted if she herself could win against her.


    Biting her lip tightly, Zhao Min looked at Mei Mu, who was smugly satisfied. Anger welled up in her heart. “Mei Mu, since you put it that way, then I have to train my student well. I have something to attend to, so I’ll leave work now. You should go home early too.”


    “You!” Mei Mu didn’t expect that Zhao Min, who had always been soft-spoken, would be so stubborn. She stomped her foot in anger and red at the ck and white keys on the piano. “Just wait and see, Mei Shu. I will definitely make you admit defeat!”


    Meanwhile, on the other side, Mei Shu waspletely unaware of what was happening in the piano room.


    After two hours of highly efficient studying with Lu Yan, they finallypleted their study n for the day.


    Mei Shu stretchedfortably and smiled at Lu Yan, “It’s gettingte. How about I treat you to a meal? Otherwise, I’ll feel embarrassed.”


    “Why are you being so polite to me? But speaking of food, I’m really hungry. Let’s go together, but let me treat you!” Lu Yan said, starting to tidy up the study materials on the table.


    The two of them left the library side by side, but unexpectedly, they ran into Li Zhen, who had just finished ying basketball.


    “Finished studying? How about we have a meal together?” Li Zhen’s gaze couldn’t help but be drawn to Mei Shu when he saw her.


    Lu Yan frowned unhappily and instinctively stood in front of Mei Shu. “Maybe next time. We’re leaving now..”
