A place at the table

  "Indeed, talent knows no origin. Miss Mu's piano skills are unmatched in the world. I, Qi Xiao Ran, can only sigh at my own inadequacy. I wonder if there will be a chance in the future to invite Miss Mu to play together." Qi Xiao Ran stepped down from the stage.

  From the sound of the piano, one can see through a person. A person who can play such magnificent tunes is by no means an ordinary person as people would say.

  This woman is intelligent and elegant, exuding a noble aura. The sound of the piano reveals her pride, she is not someone that ordinary people can compare to.

  "It's natural." Lan Ya smiled, and the elegant melody also made her admire.

  This smile made the people around suddenly brighten up, beautiful, too beautiful.

  Bai Mengni clenched her fists tightly, and even Qi Xiao Ran had to intervene. If she continued to make a scene, it was likely that things would get out of hand.

  "We'll see about that." Bai Mengni stormed off with a flick of her sleeve.

  Lan Ya shook her head and smiled wryly. Had she just made an enemy of her? Today's trial had exposed her identity, and when she went back, she would still have to deal with that group of people. Just thinking about it gave her a headache.

  The golden light of the wild and dark sky stared at the departing woman, and she was so familiar with Baili Xun.

  "Night wind." His magnetic voice sounded as if he was speaking to the air itself.

  A dark shadow flashed by in the darkness of night, the wind quietly and soundlessly swept across, this night seemed to be not very peaceful.

  Bai Li pushed Lian Cheng, with Lan Ya in her arms. The wind blew gently, and after the noise subsided, it was quiet again. The chirping of insects could be heard by her ear, adding a touch of mystery to this night.

  "Let Xiang come and push." Lan Ya said as they were approaching the Mu residence.

  "Why don't I go in with you?" Ba Li Lian Cheng asked, somewhat doubtful, compared to the commotion on the trial grounds, Mu Fu already knew.

  Lan Ya was taken aback for a moment, then shook her head.

  "Although my legs can't move, my brain is still working." Mu Zhihang was furious, but he still had some scruples, and today she won the trial champion, so he didn't dare to do anything to her.

  She took advantage of this opportunity to win a place in the imperial court!

  Baili Liancheng seemed to have guessed her actions, turned around, walked in front of Lan Ya, grasped her hands with both hands, and a clear temperature was transmitted from the palm of his hand. Lan Ya's heart moved, not knowing how to respond.

  "Remember, I am always with you." Ba Li Lian Cheng's voice was as gentle as ever, but these words could stir up the turmoil in one's heart.

  A very sincere and weighty sentence.

  Lan Ya's expression was stunned for the first time, and she heard such words for the first time, as if she wanted to protect her.

  "Why... would you want to protect me?" Lan Ya retorted, her reputation having spread far and wide throughout the Imperial City, not to mention that she was a woman with severed legs.

  "Because I am Baili Liancheng, the third king of Northern Zhou." Baili Liancheng's gaze was firm and radiant.

  Bei Zhou San Wang Ye? Lan Ya muttered to herself, and it wasn't until half a moment later that she suddenly realized, Bei Zhou San Wang Ye was actually Mei Qingyan's fiancé!

  Behind her, Zhang's mouth was agape with shock. This man was the third prince of Northern Zhou? The fiancé of Second Miss?

  It was the first time she had seen Third Master since her engagement with him, and upon hearing this, she couldn't help but be shocked.
