Chapter 226 (1/2)

Desk Mate Has Been Swapped Out

Ultimately, Zhao Youyue won the Gold Prize of the provincial level Music Competition and made Wang Yan, her mother, shed tears of happiness.

Wang Yan had been anticipating for her daughter to become successful. Today, she was so excited to see her daughter finally becoming the center of attention!

On the other hand, Zhao Jiayi was happy as well, but not as excited as his wife. His only expectation of her daughter was to grow up healthily and happily. She has the right to choose her own life. Be it average or outstanding, it was all up to her. He would not force her to do anything.

He was very open-minded in educating his daughter, yet, it had cultivated a self-assertive personality in Zhao Youyue. On the surface, she seemed to be unperturbed by it, but she already had a mind of her own.

The only problem was that Zhao Youyue has never expressed it before, and she never thought of expressing her own mind either. Perhaps, being hidden in the crowd as a side character and following the trend by observing the world, was relaxing and interesting for her.

Just like a saint, who is never involved in any form of karma and remaining totally disconnected with the world.

However, by having the perfectly neutral soul after the merging of her souls, she became more pro-active. She once was content at being common and mediocre.

Nevertheless, she would express the supremacy of a heroine in crucial moments. Then, she would hide her credit and fame and become a side character again, silently observing the reactions of the people to the troubles she leaves behind

The gorgeous and dazzling appearance of Zhao Youyue when she won the prize had astonished a person too, and that was Han Leng, who had deliberately taken leave of his job and came to see her compete. But, do not misunderstand him. He was there to seek inspiration, and much of it did he gain.

Apart from seeing Zhao Youyue’s precisely perfect and professional level violin performance, he had also witnessed the comic relief who played “aLiez” and even tried to give the designated song a personal touch. However, they were harshly criticized by the judges!

This gave him some introspective insight of his “Beautiful April.” Fortunately, Chu Luoxun was never directly scolded by the Chief Judge, or else, it would be so awkward. She would look like another poorly mannered participant who came only to mess the competition up

To be frank, Han Leng was completely amazed by Zhao Youyue’s performance today, just not the music. After all, he did not completely understand classical music. It was her overall performance that amazed him.

The moment she held the violin and went up to the stage in the elegant long dress and light make-up, her nature as a “side character” seemed to vanish and she had transformed into the “heroine”!

Han Leng was used to her low-profile behavior in school. This was why he was profoundly amazed by her elegance, today!

Meanwhile, he never expected that Zhao Youyue would have such a great attainment when it comes to playing the violin. He thought she was at the same level with the Lin Meiyue, the heroine in his book, the kind that was just there to round up the numbers. As a result, Zhao Youyue’s true nature had given him a slap on his face

The real Zhao Youyue and the one he had envisioned were completely different!

Han Leng felt that his heroine, Lin Meiyue, was merely his fantasy, who was not even qualified to be a watered-down version of Zhao Youyue. She seemed only to have the side of Zhao Youyue which was a low-profile side character, while her side which was akin to a heroine with a strong sense of presence was absent.

A side character heroine would not only possess the nature of a side character but the nature of a heroine too. Therefore, what kind of person is the heroine?

A girl who had a strong sense of presence, unique charm and the ability to shine at any time, while also having many fans and worshipers, of course!

The world would revolve around her!

Zhao Youyue was amassing her competence gradually as she forms the foundation of her heroineship.
