“How shameless!”
Tian Xiaoyu flew into a rage, her index finger jabbing at the program list. She looked at Fang Xiuzhen. “Our song’s title is ‘Mountain Stream’, but he’s so good! He doesn’t even bother to use his brain to plagiarize creatively and directly named it ‘Mountain Stream’. Moreover, he is performing before you. What should we do!?”
Fang Xiuzhen had been staring at the door, her eyes full of curiosity. She asked curiously, “Why isn’t my brother here yet? Does it take him so long to help move things?”
Tian Xiaoyu sighed and gently tapped Fang Xiuzhen’s head. “Xiuzhen, are you listening? Isn’t this song very important to you?”
“It is indeed very important, but I’m not afraid of that Hong Tiefeng at all. You have to know that this is a song that I wrote myself!”
Fang Xiuzhen’s eyes narrowed slightly, and there was determination in her eyes. “In the past, I always felt that this song was flawed. Now that I’ve reunited with my brother, I’ve gained the sudden inspiration to improve this song!”
Before long, it was the seventeenth performer, Hong Tiefeng’s turn to go on stage.
In order to prepare for a good show, Xu Tian did not rush back to Fang Xiuzhen’s side. Instead, he had already sat in the audience seats, patiently waiting for this performance.
When he saw Hong Tiefeng finally go on stage, he sneered in his heart. “Just now, I spent a lot of effort on the piano. I’d like to see how good my handiwork is!”
He stared at the man who was about to take a bow. The silver needle in his hand flew, and a cold light shot out.
“You dare to play this trick on my third sister?” Xu Tian revealed a mocking expression and muttered to himself, “Then I’ll let you experience this feeling!”
On the stage, Hong Tiefeng, who originally wanted to bow, felt his knees go soft. He directly threw himself forward and fell flat to the ground, looking as if he was greeting the new year with a comical look.
The silent audience burst into laughter, but they tried their best to suppress the urge to ridicule in their hearts, because on the stage was the rising star of the piano world, Hong Tiefeng.
Hong Tiefeng’s expression was unsightly. He stood up awkwardly, walked to the piano, and sat down without saying a word. After readjusting his emotions, he pressed the first key.
However, the black and white piano keys felt a little stiff. Hong Tiefeng did not think too much at first. He played according to the “Mountain Stream” in his memory.
Little did he know that Xu Tian’s silver needle just now had weakened his hearing!
The playing was chaotic. The music emitted by the piano was like rusty iron creaking against each other. It was ear-piercing and shrill. There was no sense of melody at all, let alone ornamental.
“What’s going on?” Hong Tiefeng was puzzled because he inadvertently caught a glimpse of the reactions of the audience below the stage. However, he found that everyone had strange expressions and looked at him with strange gazes.
“They must be too immersed!”
He thought narcissistically and raised his head proudly. After all, when he first heard Fang Xiuzhen’s “Mountain Stream”, it was as if he had heard music from heaven.
However, under the stimulation of the silver needles, Hong Tiefeng had gone cross-eyed, and he didn’t know it at all. He thought that he was handsome and was playing seriously, which made people laugh!
“What kind of rubbish is this cockfight thing playing? How can this guy even go on stage? Isn’t it terrible if he doesn’t even play the piano?!”
“What kind of new piano star is this? They all had training since childhood, right? Is it necessary to spend so much money to bring up such a pile of mud? It’s really disgusting!”
“I feel that my two-year-old son can play better than this Hong Tiefeng, as long as he has hands!”
There was a commotion below the stage. Hong Tiefeng couldn’t sit still anymore. His heart was full of doubt, and he wanted to pay attention to the commotion below the stage.
However, he realized that his ears were not working properly. Right now, he could only see the mouths of those people opening and closing. He couldn’t hear anything at all!
“Everyone, please calm down and enjoy the show in a civilized manner. Can you listen to this ‘Mountain Stream’ patiently?”
Hong Tiefeng suppressed the uneasiness in his heart and forced out a smile. His eyes were still cross-eyed as he said this to the audience.
“Civilized, your mum!” Some of the audience members with bad tempers were having a bad time, so they threw their shoes fiercely.
The act of throwing the shoes reminded the rest of the audience, so they followed suit and threw the objects next to them at Hong Tiefeng.
“Rubbish performance, refund! Refund!”
“Yeah, it’s so rubbish, I’m going to wash my eyes and ears out. Refund!”
When more and more people shouted for the refund, even the accompanist backstage had a temper and immediately stopped the performance!
Therefore, the performance of “Mountain Stream” was forcefully interrupted by the crowd.
As all kinds of objects pelted him like artillery shells, Hong Tiefeng ran off the stage with a gloomy face.
Lin Youfu, who was waiting backstage, had witnessed all of this and went forward to welcome him with some trepidation. He wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and reported the effect of the performance with fear.
Only then did Hong Tiefeng learn what had happened. His face was as dark as water. No wonder the expressions of the audience were so complicated. It turned out that he was simply a clown on stage just now!
As he thought of his embarrassing performance on the stage just now, he was so angry that his eyes were burning with anger!
“Fang Xiuzhen!” When Lin Youfu recalled the clues concerning the piano.., he gritted his teeth. “This is definitely Fang Xiuzhen’s doing! After all, we did exactly the same thing to her piano. I didn’t expect that she would dare to use such a method to fight back!”
Hong Tiefeng’s face was ferocious. He glared at the No. 18 performer, Fang Xiuzhen, who had just entered the stage, and cursed at the stage, “This b*tch!”
Fang Xiuzhen was focused on the stage, so she naturally couldn’t hear Hong Tiefeng’s fury.
When she stepped onto the stage steps, the first thing she did was look at the family members in the audience seats. When she met Xu Tian’s gentle and caring gaze, her heart calmed down.
She gently lifted her skirt and walked onto the stage. When the spotlight focused on her, she looked especially radiant and elegant. Moreover, her confidence blossomed on her face, adding to her charm.
This made the audience who were planning to leave the arena feel even more moved. They all stopped in their tracks and followed Fang Xiuzhen’s actions closely.
And when Hong Tiefeng, who was backstage, saw this opening that was completely different from him, he felt even more humiliated and shouted, “Motherf *cker, this bitch! She actually dared to sabotage me! This stinky bitch!”
Lin Youfu’s face was also cold. With a thought, he slowly said a plan in Hong Tiefeng’s ear.
This made Hong Tiefeng’s eyes gradually narrow, and he said with a sinister smile, “Okay! Let’s do it!”
Fang Xiuzhen did not know that a conspiracy was unfolding around her. Right now, she was graceful and polite, and she sat down lightly.
Her ten fingers danced happily on the black and white piano keys.
A melodious piano sound slowly seeped out, and it was worthy of its name. It made everyone listen experience a refreshing feeling that flowed like a mountain stream, cleansing people’s hearts!
Fang Xiuzhen looked at Xu Tian in the audience seats tenderly. Her fingertips suddenly changed, as if a mountain stream was surging in front of her eyes. That jumping melody drew a beautiful scene of children playing with a spring.
Xu Tian had long closed his eyes and was immersed in it. He could not help but think of the interesting childhood events between him and his seven older sisters.
The song was clear, and the entire venue was silent. The lingering sound lingered in his heart for a long time!
Then, thunderous applause sounded!
“This is what music is like! What the hell was that just now? After hearing this music, my whole body was healed.”
“This is what a rising star of the piano is like. What is that Hong Tiefeng? They actually put him on the same stage as her?”
“Please don’t mention that puddle of mud just now. The two are not comparable at all!”
However, after Wei Boxuan finished listening, he frowned and stood up straight with a serious expression.
“Did you compose this ‘Mountain Stream’?”
“She didn’t compose it!” When Hong Tiefeng heard this, he ran out from backstage. He pointed at Fang Xiuzhen and shouted, “How can this deaf person compose a song? She just sabotaged my performance and now she’s plagiarizing my creativity. This is clearly my song!”
This sentence caused a commotion. Plagiarism was the most unacceptable thing in the music industry!
“Fang Xiuzhen is actually deaf. I didn’t expect such a beautiful girl to be deaf?”
“That’s right. How could a deaf person write a song? Look at her blank expression. She really can’t hear us, let alone write on her own!”
“No wonder Hong Tiefeng’s music was so strange just now. It turns out that someone had tampered with it!”
Fang Xiuzhen could read lips, but when everyone looked at her with questioning eyes, she shrunk her body slightly and couldn’t help but take a step back, looking exceptionally delicate!
“You said that my sister plagiarized your song. Then what is your creative philosophy for writing this song?”
Seeing this scene, Xu Tian felt his heart ache. He jumped onto the stage, held Fang Xiuzhen’s small hand tightly, looked straight at Hong Tiefeng, and shouted.
Hong Tiefeng chuckled. “This is naturally an inspiration that came by chance. It’s purely natural. I believe that all the audience present can hear this aura that is close to nature, right?”
Then, he sat down by the piano and quickly played a prelude that was almost identical to “Mountain Stream.” It shocked everyone, and the look he gave Fang Xiuzhen was even more contemptuous.
“Fang Xiuzhen, is this true?”
Wei Boxuan shouted at Fang Xiuzhen.
“She’s deaf, how could she hear Elder Wei’s words?!” Hong Tiefeng laughed mockingly.
This caused the public opinion to change, and everyone cursed at Fang Xiuzhen.
Xu Tian shouted angrily, “Beethoven could compose the seventh symphony even after he lost his hearing. What makes you think my sister doesn’t have the ability!”
However, this statement made even more people laugh. How could Fang Xiuzhen be compared to Beethoven?
Fang Xiuzhen saw her brother being questioned and looked at Wei Boxuan, her gaze gradually became firm. “That ‘Mountain Stream’ just now recorded the childhood memories of my brother and myself. When I first composed it, it was still rather monotonous. But just now, my brother gave me infinite inspiration, which made this newly created song come to life, and not just a static painting.”
Hearing this, Wei Boxuan seemed to be deep in thought. After a moment of silence, he clapped his hands and shouted, “Yes, your song is like a moving picture, while Hong Tiefeng’s variation is full of angst.”
When Hong Tiefeng saw it, he anxiously shouted, “This is my idea, how can I create it on the spot? She definitely doesn’t have the ability. She must be lying!”
Xu Tian’s smile was full of mockery. He snatched the host’s microphone and turned on the recording pen.
During this time, the cunning laughter of Hong Tiefeng and Lin Youfu, as well as the sinister means of plotting and framing, were all heard.
After the recording was played, everyone understood.
“So he, Hong Tiefeng, is the one who plagiarized and framed!
“Not only that, he even tried to turn it around! How disgusting! You piece of shit, get off the stage!”
“Trash, get off the stage!”
The audience roared in unison. It was deafening.
Wei Boxuan’s gaze was extremely sharp. “Hong Tiefeng, you played tricks with your manager, harmed others, and plagiarized works. You will forever lose the opportunity to attend all kinds of events in the music industry. Not only that, City H’s Music Association will also launch a lawsuit against you. How could there be such a disgusting person in the world?!”
Hong Tiefeng’s face was pale as he fell to the ground. His eyes were filled with jealousy and hatred as he stared at Lin Youfu. If it wasn’t for this b*stard’s idea, how could he have fallen to such a state!!
This undoubtedly confirmed this person’s actions. The entire venue was filled with cursing and more cursing, causing him to lose his focus and smash the floor angrily.
After receiving the order, the security captain rushed to the stage with his team. He looked at Xu Tian with some fear and thought of the misunderstanding just now. He carefully bypassed this person and with a wave of his hand, took Hong Tiefeng and Lin Youfu down in front of everyone.
The host stepped out to smooth things over at the right time. “It’s already extremely rare to hear ‘Mountain Stream’, but we almost misunderstood the intentions of the original owner. It had not easy for her to compose such a piece. I feel that all of us owe Fang Xiuzhen an apology!”
Wei Boxuan looked at Fang Xiuzhen and said in a solemn tone, but at the same time, he was also a little apologetic. “Yes, when you performed a moving picture of two children in a mountain stream with music, you had actually succeeded!
“Fang Xiuzhen, Welcome to the next grand stage of the Jinsheng Piano Show!”
Under such circumstances, Wei Boxuan directly jumped out of the rules and announced the results of Fang Xiuzhen’s performance in advance, but no one felt uncomfortable.
Under the leadership of the host, Wei Boxuan stood at the front, and the audience followed closely behind. They apologized to the siblings on the stage in unison, their voices piercing through the sky.
This uniform and neat mouth shapes made Fang Xiuzhen’s nose ache. She felt the warmth of Xu Tian’s palm. She felt that in order to have all of this, no matter how hard she worked, it was worth it!
Xu Tian smiled smugly in his heart. He was secretly glad that he had resisted the thought of beating up Hong Tiefeng just now.

Immediately after, his phone vibrated.
Heavenly Court’s Organization Department sent a message about North China Airlines.
“There are many rumors circulating about Li Xiangning in the internal group of the North China Airlines. They suspect that someone is spreading rumors.”
Xu Tian felt a chill in his heart. He had the final say on North China Airlines. Now, his fifth sister had been hurt again and again!
Standing on the stage, Xu Tian accompanied his third sister to receive the cheers. On the surface, he was calm, but the fists behind his back were tightly clenched.. He had made a decision!
