A SUBSTITUTE BRIDE

Her eyes were clear, and she looked like she really wanted to learn music.

However, to become a musician, passion and sincerity are not the only things that count.

Professor Leon pursed his lips and said:

– All right, I’ll give you a test.

When everyone heard Professor Leon’s words, they breathed a sigh of relief.

If the newcomer wasn’t good enough, she would be chased away by Professor Leon. That way, they wouldn’t have to worry about the newcomer lowering their grades.

If the newcomer was talented, she would bring glory to the class if she joined!

However, no one thought this newcomer would be good.

Professor Leon glanced at all the students in the room and said:

– For the sake of fairness, all students will come with me in the instrument room. We will observe the test of the new student together.

Everyone therefore headed towards the instrument room with enthusiasm.

Professor Leon looked at Lyana and said, “Since you were admitted, you must know the rules of our school. Even if you have an acceptance letter, you must get the teacher’s approval before you can enter the school to study.

Lyana had already inquired before her arrival. She nodded slightly.

She felt a little uncomfortable. Looking at the instruments, she was a little afraid that she could not successfully enter the school. It had been a long time since she had practiced.

Professor Leon glanced at the instruments around him and said:

– You can choose an instrument that you master and play a piece of your choice. As long as you can succeed, I accept you.

The students looked at Lyana as if they were watching a good show. They were waiting for her to retire.

Lyana’s nervous heart gradually calmed down. She steps forward and looks at the guqin. She sat down opposite him.

The students who had come to watch the show all looked at Lyana in disbelief. Panting, they said in confusion:

– She’s so bold. She really dared to choose the guqin.

– It’s true. The guqin is so difficult. Doesn’t she know?

– Without a teacher, it is impossible to learn guqin.

– She must really be the dumb daughter of a rich family. She is not capable at all.

…

Lyana stroked the guqin with both hands, her fingers gently strumming the strings.

The timbre was not bad.

It was also tuned to the correct pitch.

She sat up straight, blocking out all noise from the outside world. She raises her hands and places them elegantly on the guqin, then begins to strum the first string.

Music begins to flow languidly from the guqin’s strings.

– Is she crazy? She plays ‘Spring and Snow’.

– She overestimates herself. How dare she challenge the prettiest and most capable girl in our faculty!

– Don’t be like that. She just arrived. How could she know anything about our school?

– Let’s hear it!

…

Professor Leon and Headmaster Malo, who stood to the side, were slightly stunned.

The track “Spring and Snow” was famous all over the world. This piece was very difficult, and it was known to test everyone’s technical basics. None of them had expected Lyana to choose such a difficult piece.

Lyana’s slender hands danced on the strings, reminiscent of a pair of butterflies fluttering on a bed of flowers. Every move was elegant. Crisp, clear musical notes rose from his fingertips, causing listeners to involuntarily immerse themselves in the music.

Everyone was amazed. They didn’t expect her to be able to play such beautiful music.

– How can she be self-taught? She must lie.

– She plays much better than Malia Rodriguez.

– It’s true ? Did she study privately with a teacher?

– If someone like her joins our class, she’ll raise our grades, right?

– Okay, stop talking. It may be the only song she knows.

After all, these students were still too young and immature. Jealousy could be read on their faces.

After the song ended, Lyana slowly retracted her hands. It had been a long time since she had played that song, and her fingers were a little stiff. Fortunately, she could still play it perfectly.

She stood up and looked at Professor Leon.Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.

A trace of admiration shone in Professor Leon’s eyes. He had completely immersed himself in Lyana’s performance just now. Few people could play at this level.

Professor Leon nodded in satisfaction and said:

– You played well. I accept you as a student.

Lyana was radiant. She hastened to say:

– Thank you, Professor Leon.

On the side, director Malo felt the weight lift from his shoulders. Earlier, he had been worried that Lyana wouldn’t be able to successfully enter college, but now he didn’t have to worry. He turned to look at Professor Leon.

– Very well, Professor Leon, then you can start your lessons. I will help him with the registrations.

– Thank you, Director Malo.

Lyana smiled at him.

Director Malo looked at Lyana and smiled. – Works well.

She smiled and nodded.

After that, she followed Professor Leon and his new classmates to the classroom. After she showed up on stage, Professor Leon arranged for her to sit by the window on the right side of the third row.

Half an hour later, class ended.

As soon as Professor Leon left the classroom, many girls rushed to Lyana and looked at her curiously.

– Lyana, did you really learn music on your own?

– Lyana, how could you become so talented?

– Yes yes. Do you have any tips or shortcuts?

– Lyana, you are so exceptional. You don’t even have to come here to study.

– Ahhh, Goddess Lyana, do you have any special study methods? Can you teach it to us pitiful mortals?

Lyana was stunned by their enthusiasm.

She had just played a song. Why was everyone around him?

She opened her mouth to speak, but before she could say anything, a dismissive voice sounded from the side.

– What’s so great about her? It’s just ‘Spring and Snow’. Who doesn’t know how to play it? Do you all have to praise him like that?

– She must have been lucky to be able to play it well. It may be the only song she knows!

– It’s true, it’s true. Maybe she doesn’t even know all the musical instruments.

When Lyana’s office mate heard those words, she frowned. Slamming the table, she got up and retorted in an authoritative tone:

– Aren’t you going too far? Lyana plays well. Everyone must learn from each other. Why are you like that ? Is it so difficult for you to admit that other people are remarkable? Fools.

– Shut up !

– You should shut up! She is clearly capable. It is reality. Didn’t you say that you also knew how to play it? Come on, play it. Let all of us be the judges. Let’s see who can play it better.

The two groups of people started arguing from side to side. They were close to a physical fight.

Lyana’s gaze fell on her office mate. She was short and had half of her hair in a bun. A bright red bow was tied around her head and she wore a blue and white dress. She looked adorable.

She didn’t expect this girl to be so overbearing, like she was a mob boss.

When the two parties were arguing, there was a knock on the door.

Everyone looked in unison.

– Who are you looking for ?

A girl in a wine-red dress stood in the doorway. Her figure was extremely voluptuous, and her bust size appeared to be around 34F.

– Which of you is Lyana Dubois?

Lyana said calmly:

– It’s me.

On her high heels, the girl advanced towards Lyana step by step, her skirt swaying in the wind. She stopped in front of Lyana and glanced at her face saying:

– Senior Malia asked me to give you a present. I hope you will like it.

With that, the girl placed a box of gifts on Lyana’s table.

Moa looked at the girl in the red dress, confusion on her face.

Her office mate immediately answered for Lyana.

– Lyana, Senior Rodriguez is our department’s campus beau. She is beautiful, kind and has good grades. She is very friendly with all the juniors. Look, she came to give you a present as soon as you entered the school.

Lyana looked at her desk mate in confusion. Why did she feel like her classmate’s praise was laced with sarcasm?

– Senior, thank Senior Rodriguez for me,

Lyana said calmly.
