piano.

She remembered the day she returned to the Huo family, the evening party was being broadcast on the TV in the living room, and Yu Wan was playing the piano.

She was so elegant and calm, the whole world's light fell on her.

Such a huge square instrument could produce various musical sounds that represented emotions, which made her yearn for it and desire it.

Yu Wan was her first idol.

Noticing her movements, Ruan Xingchen paused slightly, held her hand and was about to say something.

At this moment, someone chuckled, which was particularly abrupt in the quiet environment.

"I heard Miss Huo Wu loves playing the piano." A girl from another group of socialites she hadn't met before glanced towards them with a wicked smile and said loudly, "This is a rare opportunity. Miss Huo Wu, why don't you go up and give it a try? You'll have the chance to be personally instructed by Master Yu Wan!"

"boom……"

The girls surrounding her laughed softly, their laughter full of sarcasm.

"Fan Wanqing!" Huo Qianqian's face flushed with anger as she glared at him, "Are you deliberately looking for trouble?"

The Fan family is a company that has been transferred back from abroad in recent years, and has always been eager to get a piece of the pie in H City.

The group of people led by Fan Wanqing have always been at odds with the girls from the Huo and Gu families, and they are always at odds with each other.

"What does Fourth Miss Huo mean by this?" Fan Wanqing chuckled, her lips curled up. "I just wanted to give Fifth Miss Huo a chance to show off. How can that be considered picking a fight? Or is it..."

She laughed: "Miss Huo also thinks her sister is not good enough?"

Huo Xiaoning lowered his head, his whole body was almost bent like a shrimp, and his eyes were red.

She tried hard to hold back her tears, not wanting to cry in front of these people.

She is such a waste, not worthy of being a member of the Huo family. She can't do anything right, is timid and useless, and only brings shame to the family.

She is so embarrassing, her sister-in-law must hate her, right?

She wanted to cover her ears and yell at the man to shut up, but her whole body was stiff and she couldn't move. She could only sit there stiffly, motionless, and allow herself to be humiliated, like a monkey in a zoo being watched.

They don't even have the qualifications to crawl into the cracks in the ground and escape in a panic.

"Wanqing, you know that..." The socialite next to Fan Wanqing covered her mouth, her eyes filled with pity and mockery as she chuckled softly, "Miss Huo Wu has no talent for playing the piano at all. A three-year-old can play better than her... Wouldn't it pollute Master Yu Wan's ears if she were to play?"

"Exactly. Is someone like her qualified to play the piano? Hehehe... Look, Huo Qianqian was too embarrassed to let her out and embarrass herself!"

"What's her name? Huo Xiaoning, right? She doesn't even dare to talk to us..."

"If she plays the piano, she won't cry and tremble with fear, right?"

"Hahahaha, I don't want to hear such an unpleasant sound... It will ruin the good mood I just had listening to Miss Ruan playing the piano."

……

Sentence after sentence, word after word, like cold needles, pierced Huo Xiaoning's body.

Stop it, stop it!

She wanted to escape, but she couldn't.

Her eyes were filled with blood, and tears welled up and fell to the ground, making her bite her lips tightly in hatred, and her tongue was full of blood and bitterness.

How can you be so useless! Trash! Disgraceful! Idiot! A crying coward!

She cursed herself over and over in her heart, wishing she could disappear from this world.

At this moment, a warm and soft hand held her hand and lifted her chin.

Huo Xiaoning was stunned and let herself be manipulated. When she saw her sister-in-law, she looked at her with a cold face and there seemed to be a hint of murderous intent in her eyes.

She shuddered. Is Sister-in-law… angry?

Ruan Xingchen had a cold face. He wiped her tears with a tissue, then took her hand and stood up.

Fan Wanqing's smug expression paused.

After seeing the majesty of Mrs. Huo tonight, she felt inexplicably a little timid.

This woman from the slums wouldn't want to come over and slap her, right? She wasn't Cheng Yi, she wouldn't let her bully her.

Haha, what an uneducated thing he is. He makes Huo Qianqian want to slap people at every turn... It's so embarrassing.

"Miss Fan, and all of you... young ladies." Ruan Xingchen looked at them coldly, his eyes raised. "It's fun to laugh at other people's psychological shadows, isn't it?"

Fan Wanqing froze and argued, "How did I mock her? I was recommending her to Master Yu Wan. Giving Huo Xiaoning a chance to show herself, how can that be called mocking?"

"Whether it's a mockery or not, you know it in your heart." Ruan Xingchen's eyes were like swords, piercing her: "You are full of malice, wantonly bullying those who are kinder and weaker than you. You know better than me whether your heart is evil or not."

Fan Wanqing wanted to refute, but under the intimidating gaze of hers, she felt a little timid. She opened her mouth, but no sound came out.

"Do you really need to say anything about whether our young lady from the Huo family wants to perform on stage?" Huo Qianqian also gained a little more confidence. She raised her chin and scolded, "You are meddling in other people's business."

"you!"

"What do you mean?" Huo Yuanzhou appeared out of nowhere and squinted at her. "At least my fifth sister really likes the piano. What about Miss Fan? Oh, you don't like playing the piano, but you like talking nonsense, right?"

"Brother, don't be so blunt when it comes to ladies." For the first time, Huo Jingxuan stood on the same side as his annoying brother and twisted his wrist defiantly: "Bullying girls is not the way men in our Huo family are raised. But we can have a good talk with Miss Fan's father and brother, right?"

Talk? How? Who doesn't know Huo San is a scoundrel who loves to fight when he disagrees with someone?

How can the gentlemen in the business world, who sit in the office for a long time, compare with this hot-tempered fighter?

Fan Wanqing felt a throbbing pain in her forehead.

Everyone……

Huo Xiaoning never thought that there would be a day like this, when she faced insults and humiliation, instead of being alone licking her wounds like a dog, there would be so many people standing in front of her, shielding her from all the wind and rain.

Her heart was filled with warmth and bitterness that was about to overflow. Looking at the figures of her brother and sister, her eyes, which had just been wiped dry, became wet again.

The one who brought about all these changes was her eldest sister-in-law, who came to her side like a savior. She took her hand trustingly and said with a smile, "Besides, who says our Xiaoning's piano playing is not good? In my opinion, she is more talented than anyone else. She is my little genius."

Huo Xiaoning's eyes lighted up again. It was not known whether it was the tears reflecting the light or something else, but they were surprisingly bright: "Sister-in-law..."

"Puff." Fan Wanqing, whose face was pale, angry and embarrassed, laughed out loud and said disdainfully, "Madam Huo, I know you're protecting your shortcomings, but there's no need to lie so openly. Who wouldn't know Huo Xiaoning's level?"
