Chapter 166: Chapter 166: Believing that Sister Won’t Flee from Battle

Shi Yiqing didn’t know if Shi Yaoguang had seen the video she posted on the forum, but she tended to think that Shi Yaoguang hadn’t seen it.

If she had seen it, she definitely wouldn’t have stayed away.

With that thought in mind, she deliberately brought it up on the phone.

Upon hearing this, Shi Yaoguang indeed became puzzled, "You clarified things for me?"

Shi Yiqing’s tone was filled with concern, "Yes, the reason I clarified for you, sister, is that I was worried people would misunderstand you."

As she spoke, she even sighed, "You might not know this, sister, but ever since the program lineup was announced, everyone thought it was impossible for you to play the piano, much less ’Eastern Fantasia.’ So everyone was guessing that you were deliberately avoiding school because you were worried about embarrassing yourself on stage, having nothing to show."

"Really?" Shi Yaoguang asked indifferently, her voice betraying neither pleasure nor anger.

But Shi Yiqing felt she was suppressing her own anger.

Just thinking about how Shi Yaoguang was reluctant to perform and yet unable to avoid it, Shi Yiqing couldn’t help but show a smug smile.

The voice speaking into the phone sounded even more sincere.

"Sister, I don’t believe the speculations about you by others. After all, you are so excellent that even I find you unapproachably talented, so I absolutely don’t believe you would flee before a battle," she said.

"For this reason, I specifically recorded a video telling everyone that you were just resting at home with a headache, but I believe that you will definitely come back, right?"

"You’re right," Shi Yaoguang replied lightly.

Shi Yiqing curled the corner of her mouth, "I knew you, sister, would..."

Shi Yaoguang cut her off, "I will indeed go to the school to see for myself who is targeting me on purpose."

"Ah?" Shi Yiqing was taken aback, "What do you mean by that, sister?"

Shi Yaoguang snorted coldly, "I mean exactly what I said."

Shi Yiqing felt a bit panicked upon hearing her cold laugh.

She didn’t know what her sister meant by that.

But Shi Yaoguang started laughing, "You’ve been saying that I signed up for the program myself. You might not know that I never signed up, did you?"

"That’s impossible!" Shi Yiqing retorted immediately.

"How is it impossible?" Shi Yaoguang’s tone grew heavier, "After all these years I’ve been abroad, don’t you know whether I can play the piano?"

Shi Yiqing paused, speaking in a sarcastic tone, "Sister, it really saddens me that you would say that. After you came back, both mom and dad asked you if you had learned any skills over the years, and whether you needed to continue learning, but you said—"

"What did I say then?" Shi Yaoguang emphasized, "I didn’t say anything at the time, and you just expressed concern that I might not adapt to some classes since I just got back, so you offered to tutor me personally. Am I wrong?"

Shi Yiqing was stunned, then she said, "No."

Shi Yaoguang laughed, "Good that you remember what you’ve said. So I’ll ask you now, have you ever seriously taught me anything after you said you would?"

Shi Yiqing was at a loss for words.

How could she possibly have seriously taught Shi Yaoguang anything?

She had just been putting on an act and then taking the credit in front of their parents.

At this moment, Shi Yaoguang couldn’t say anything else, otherwise it would be her fault.

Was it her fault for being too dumb to learn anything?

Shi Yaoguang seemed to guess her thoughts and snorted lightly, "You know very well what you have done; I don’t think I need to remind you. Since in your eyes I’m not good at anything, why would you sign me up for the program?"

Shi Yiqing blurted out without thinking, "How did you know?"

Having spoken, she realized her slip of the tongue, "I don’t know what you’re talking about."

"Heh." Shi Yaoguang sneered, "Since you dare to manipulate things behind my back, don’t be afraid to admit it. Rest assured, even if I knew it was you who did it, I wouldn’t do anything to you."

Shi Yiqing asked with doubt and suspicion, "Really?"

"Of course, it’s false." Shi Yaoguang clicked her tongue lightly, "You’ve already schemed against me like this, and yet you still dream that I would cover for you?"

Having said that, without giving Shi Yiqing a chance to react, she hung up the phone.

After she hung up, she saved the recording and sent it to Shen Huan, along with the evidence that Quan Jinbei had previously obtained for her.

Shen Huan quickly sent a message over, "How do you want to handle it?"

Shi Yaoguang replied, "A tooth for a tooth."

Shen Huan replied, "OK."

Soon enough, a new post appeared on the forum.

Shen Huan personally took the stage and smashed out the evidence.

Now everyone knew.

Shi Yaoguang hadn’t signed up for a piano solo out of overconfidence at all; the whole thing had been orchestrated by Shi Yiqing.

Shi Yiqing also saw this and panicked right away.

She hurriedly called her father and mother.

As soon as the call connected, she started sobbing.

She said to her mother, "Mom, I feel so bad, I seem to have messed things up, Sister must have misunderstood me..."

Upon hearing this, her mother’s expression soured, "What happened? Did that unfortunate girl bully you again?"

Shi Yiqing said in a choked up voice, "It’s not Sister bullying me, it’s me..."

Her tone was full of self-reproach, "I’ve always wanted to improve the relationship between Mom, Dad, and Sister, so knowing that you and Dad were coming to the school today to watch our performance, I specially signed Sister up for a program."

Her voice trembled with fear, "I just wanted Mom and Dad to see how excellent Sister is, thinking maybe that could improve your relationship with her. But Sister seems to have misunderstood me. She’s very upset about being signed up without her consent, and even had someone post a lot of bad things on the forum..."

Talking about it, she sounded even more aggrieved, "Mom, I didn’t know it would turn out like this, I really just wanted Sister to not be so estranged from us, who knew she would misunderstand me, I... I’m really feeling terrible..."

Listening to this, her mother immediately felt a pang of heartache.

"Qingqing, stop crying. Mom is coming to the backstage to find you..." her mother said, standing up from the audience and turning to her father beside her, "Qingqing is being bullied by that bastard Yaoguang again, I’ll go see what’s going on."

Her father waved his hand for her to go quickly.

Shi Yiqing, watching the phone that had been hung up, curled her lips into a sly smile.

She believed, as long as her mother and father were on her side, Shi Yaoguang wouldn’t be able to stir up any trouble.

She deliberately praised Yaoguang’s excellence in front of her mother to let her see for herself just how unsuitable Yaoguang was for the limelight!

Shi Yaoguang had no idea that Shi Yiqing was still planning to use their father and mother to strike at her.

After hanging up the call, her makeup had already been finished.

Quan Jinbei and Shi Fan, who were to sit in the audience as her family, had also received a bit of makeup.

Quan Jinbei did not want to reveal his identity just yet, so the makeup artist had given him a light touch of makeup as well.

Heavy foundation covered his perfect features, and paired with a pair of thick black-framed glasses, he no longer looked as imposing as before.
