    Mei Shu immediately understood and didn’t mention the previous incident in front of Lu Yan. She nodded repeatedly and said, “Yes, today at thepetition venue, Master Si helped me a lot, so I invited him to dinner to express my gratitude.”


    “Competition?” Lu Yan suddenly remembered that today was the day Mei Shu participated in the pianopetition. He lowered his head in regret, “I’m sorry, I promised toe and watch your performance, but Ipletely forgot.”


    “It’s okay. 1 know you have other things to do.” Mei Shu nced meaningfully in Zhou Li’s direction.


    Zhou Li’s head raised triumphantly.


    Lu Yan was hers, and he should naturally apany her on her days off!


    Moreover, Lu Yan’s mother also liked her very much!


    However, Lu Yan was still immersed in self-me and said with a downcast expression, “What happened today? Why did you need my uncle’s help?”


    Mei Shu briefly exined the incident of encountering cheating judges at thepetition and how Lu Si had helped her out.


    Lu Yan felt shocked after listening to it.


    “Elder Wen and Elder Wu also went?” Zhou Li showed the same reaction.


    Mei Shu nodded and said, “Why? Do you know them?”


    “Of course 1 do. I’ve been ying the piano for over a decade and always wanted to receive guidance from the two masters!” Zhou Li said with a proud tone.


    But soon her pride waned.


    Because she suddenly realized that she had been studying the piano for so many years and yet lost to Mei Shu, who came from the countryside. It was indeed embarrassing.


    She fell silent, and the atmosphere among the four became awkward.


    Lu Yan awkwardly cleared his throat and said, “I didn’t expect Elder Wen and Elder Wu to be so interested that they personally came to be judges. If 1 had known earlier, I wouldn’t have missed it.”


    He said this just to confirm one thing.


    As expected, Lu Si’s next sentence solved the puzzle for him. “I personally invited them. I told them that there was a talented student in thepetition whom they would like. At first, the two masters didn’t believe it, but after seeing Mei Shu, they believed me.”


    Mei Shu’s eyes widened in surprise.


    Apparently, she also thought that the appearance of the two masters today was an ident, but upon further thought, she understood.


    How could there be such a coincidence in the world?


    The two masters were getting old; how could they bother to watch a mere high school student’spetition?


    But why did Lu Si go to such lengths to introduce her to them?


    Mei Shu looked at him with confusion, even forgetting to eat the duck meat in front of her.


    Lu Si met her gaze openly and said, “Don’t think too much about it. 1 just happened to hear someone mention that the two masters were lonely in their old age and wanted to take in a talented student,peting in teaching skills. 1 thought of you and decided to bring them there.”


    Was that so?


    It seemed she had be a tool for the two masters topete with each other!


    However, she was willing to be such a tool.


    After all, she could learn real skills from the two masters.


    What intrigued her more was Lu Si’s view of her.


    “How did you know they would definitely like me? What if I didn’t impress them, and they med you?” Mei Shu asked curiously.


    “They won’t.” Lu Si sipped his strong tea and answered calmly.


    Mei Shu was taken aback, not sure which part he was answering.


    Wouldn’t they me him? Or would they not be disappointed in her?


    Lu Si put down his teacup and exined leisurely, “They will definitely like you. I told them earlier in the car that you are really talented and a person worth investing effort to cultivate. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have rashly asked the two masters toe.”


    Unexpectedly, when Lu Si started praising someone, he was incredibly generous, which greatly contrasted with his cold exterior.


    Mei Shu’s heart rippled slightly. She lowered her head and smiled sweetly, saying, “Thank you. I’m also very happy to get to know the two masters.”


    Lu Yan sensed the somewhat sweet atmosphere between them, feeling a little sour in his mouth, and unable to resist breaking the mood between them, “Uncle, you have a good eye. Since 1 was young, 1 knew that Mei Shu is a genius. Now that her talent is discovered, I’m also very happy for her.”


    The smile on Lu Si’s face disappeared instantly, and he turned to Lu Yan without expression, scolding him mercilessly, “Silent at meals, silent at bedtime.”


    Lu Yan looked incredulous.


    Weren’t they just eating and talking a moment ago?


    The four of them sitting together felt a bit awkward. Mei Shu quickly finished the duck and wiped her mouth, saying, “I’m done. Master Si, let’s go.”


    Lu Si had finished eating long ago. After hearing Mei Shu’s words, he immediately stood up and walked out.


    Mei Shu wanted to settle the bill, so she moved aside to squeeze past him, but unexpectedly, the floor beneath her suddenly became slippery, causing her to lose her bnce and fall forward.


    Just as she was about to fall face down to the ground, Mei Shu quickly reached out to grab onto the nearby table. However, a guest had ced a steaming hot soup bowl in that spot. If she were to ce her hand down, it might get scalded!


    Everything happened too quickly, and Mei Shu had no way to ask for help. She could only close her eyes and grip onto Lu Si’s clothing with all her might..
