Poisoning the World: The Secret Service Mysterious Doctor is a Young Beastly Wife

Chapter 463 - Extraordinary Talent

“This Lady is a Zither Teacher who comes from the Capital? Zi… Miss Yan’s current Teacher?” Gu Ziyan suddenly turned his face towards Ning Xuemo and questioned her.

“I am her friend and teacher, so I just gave her some pointers. That’s all” Ning Xuemo smirked, seemingly indolent.

“Miss Yan’s skills aren’t bad. They should be even more outstanding after this Lady’s teachings. May my humble self ask if it is possible to give me some advice?”

Ning Xuemo couldn’t help but peek at him. It appeared that this man was profoundly hostile towards her, to the extent of challenging her!

Everybody looked at each other. Even though Gu Ziyan was a cold person, but he was modest and amiable and didn’t have a competitive heart.

Many people wished to battle with him, but he would always turn them down. However, they didn’t expect that today he would challenge Ning Xuemo… Was he provoked?

Yan Ziyuan, instead, felt dejected. He certainly must be unsatisfied towards Rong Yan’s matter, therefore he picked on her friend…

Rong Yan was indeed his sweetheart. He even changed his attitude for her.

Everyone harbored different thoughts. But Ning Xuemo just smiled, 4 taels for 1 thousand jin {n}: “This woman also came to join the match. When it will be this woman’s turn, Your Esteemed Gu, please be so kind as to give me your opinion”

{use little effort to solve big issues}

Talking to this point, Gu Ziyan couldn’t say more. He only added: “I am waiting to listen to this Lady’s performance”

All the spectators looked at each other again, and then began to observe Ning Xuemo. Regardless of her appearance or clothes, they weren’t attractive in the slightest. Especially her small hands, which were a little tanned and coarse. They weren’t the delicate hands of high-skilled zither players.

As a result, those bystanders weren’t convinced of Ning Xuemo’s identity of a Zither Master. On the contrary, they believed that Yan Ziyuan randomly found a street artist in the Main Street to annoy Gu Ziyan. In fact, their eyes were filled with suspicion and disdain.

{tl: why are they underestimating Yan Ziyuan and Ning Xuemo?}

Some people in the back were even whispering to each other, sharing their distrustfulness and sneering at their own words.

Ning Xuemo had sharp ears, so she heard everything they said, but didn’t take them to heart. She didn’t care about slanders and gossips from the start. Instead, she relied on herself, absolutely not caring about what others thought of her. She ate whatever she wanted, drank whatever she wanted and minded her business while sitting down to eat watermelon seeds.

This ship was quite spacious. It was floating on a misty lake. The twanging sound of the zither travelled outside, making the water in the lake undulate.

The Zither Competition commenced already. The competitors went to play accordingly to the schedule arranged by the organizer. Because the time wasn’t enough, they were allowed to play one short piece only. If they were sufficiently good, then they could play two more short pieces…

For the reason that Ning Xuemo has been added by Yan Ziyuan later on, she obviously had to play last, like the last item presented on a programme.

Actually, those participants already went through a selection, and those ones who could reach the final round of the match naturally had some ability.

Ning Xuemo cracked the melon seeds (between her teeth), drank tea while listening to the zither tunes. She would either criticize the player silently or listen to the comments made by the four examiners.

The judgers were indeed people worth of being virtuous and prestigious. Each remark was precise and truthful.

The words that Gu Ziyan would say were very few, but each sentence was sharp, accurate and fitting to the competitor.

Ning Xuemo also felt admiration. It looked like Gu Ziyan deserved his reputation of being a genius zither player…

After hearing about ten pieces, she found their zither skills to be pretty good.
