Chapter 2914: A Glance

"Na."

"Xue Jiamin."

Xie Chuchu spoke softly.

"I advise you to be careful with your words."

"otherwise……"

“It’s hard to tell what the consequences will be.”

……

Xue Jiamin: …

"You were the one who made me choke on the water just now."

……

"Oh."

"sorry."

Xie Chuchu apologized very straightforwardly.

……

"..."

Xue Jiamin picked at the thermos cup in his hand.

"……How did you come?"

"What on earth are you here for?"

……

"Teacher Gao invited us here."

Xie Chuchu was confident.

Anyway, she didn't ask to come here.

"Since Teacher Gao has invited me so warmly, I'll come and see how you perform."

"good."

Xie Chuchu patted Xue Jiamin's shoulder vigorously.

……

Xue Jiamin almost stumbled.

He turned his head and glared.

……

Xie Chuchu was unaware of anything and was smiling widely.

“The performance just now was very good.”

"It's worth it that I talked to you for so long yesterday."

“But there are still games to come.”

"It's not time to relax yet..."

……

Xue Jiamin rubbed his ears.

He opened his mouth.

Then he thought of the pain just now and subconsciously touched his forehead.

The name of the export has become -
"elder sister."

……

"Ok?"

Xie Chuchu nodded with satisfaction in her heart.

Not bad.

It seems that he has remembered the lesson just now.

"what's up?"

……

"I just……"

Xue Jiamin frowned.

He looked very confused and uncertain.

"It seems like I saw a leopard with a human face..."

……

"what?"

Xie Chuchu and Chi Xiu Ke's reactions were surprisingly consistent.

All opened their eyes wide.

A look of surprise.

……

"A leopard with a human face?"

Xie Chuchu's voice sounded awkward.

"here?"

Xie Chuchu felt that her voice seemed to have become strange.

Xue Jiamin said he just saw...

Wasn’t Xue Jiamin on the stage just now?

Or on the way down from the stage to the green room?
No matter which one...

"You're wrong."

Xie Chuchu made the final decision.

"Why is there a leopard here?"

This is an indoor music hall.

If there really was a leopard, wouldn't it cause a huge uproar?
How can it be so peaceful?

……

Xue Jiamin pursed his lips.

but……

……

"Did you really see it?"

Chi Xiu Ke couldn't help but bend down and ask.

……

"how is this possible?"

Xie Chuchu blurted out.

……

"neat."

Chi Xiu Ke frowned slightly, and a hint of disapproval appeared in her gentle words.

"Listen first..."

……

"Ok."

Xie Chuchu shrugged.

"Xue Jiamin, where did you see it?"

……

"..."

Xue Jiamin looked at Chi Xiu Ke, then at Xie Chu Chu.

Then he dropped his gaze.

I tried hard to recall the previous scene in my mind.

"...I finished the piece..."

“When thanking the audience…”

At that time, he was in a contradictory state of being both calm and excited.

The piece of music is over.

There aren't any errors.

He played the whole piece perfectly.

After the last note fell, he paused for a while, until the sudden applause woke him up, and he stood up from the piano bench. ...

The playing is over.

Moreover, he felt that this performance was his best ever.

Better than any other time he had practiced.

He was no longer as nervous as he was when he first came on stage.

He was very excited.

He looked toward the audience.

There was warm applause in my ears.

This time, he saw everyone's faces clearly.

He saw Xie Chuchu.

He suddenly thought of the cheering gesture he saw before the performance just now... It must be... my sister...

That cheering gesture was the only thing he could see clearly in his blurry vision...

He was... inspired.

I also feel a little relieved.

……

It turns out to be my sister.

Why is she here?

He doesn't even know.

He unconsciously looked away, feeling a little uncomfortable.

The next second, he was stunned.

His eyes suddenly widened.

Just now……

He seemed to see a tail? !

A long, very familiar tail? !
……

Before he could think about it, he heard the judges' voices.

Wait until he looks up again.

He could no longer see the tail.

He was a little dazed.

Did he see it wrong?

Because of this episode, he did not hear clearly the judges' comments on his performance.

……

He looked in that direction from time to time.

But until he was reminded that he could step down, he still didn't see the tail again.

He couldn't help but clench his hands hanging at his sides.

……

He simply thanked the judges for their comments.

Nothing else was said.

He turned around.

But he walked very slowly.

He wants to turn back.

Yet hesitant.

The next performer trotted past him.

Xue Jiamin couldn't help but follow the contestant's gaze and look back.

Just before going on stage, the contestant stopped.

I tidied my clothes.

Take another deep breath.

Then, he strode towards the shining stage.

Xue Jiamin narrowed his eyes.

really.

Watching from the sidelines...

The stage is really dazzling.

and so……

Was he dazzled just now?

……

Soon, Xue Jiamin no longer had time to worry about this issue.

Because the teacher walked towards him with a happy face.

The teacher praised him for his excellent performance.

He is very happy.

It's somewhat natural.

He certainly played it very well.

The teacher asked him to go to the lounge to rest and watch the performance of other contestants.

……

Xue Jiamin was hesitant.

He wanted to stay here...

He wanted to look at the audience again...

Maybe... that tail wasn't just his illusion.

He felt like he just...

He doesn't know anymore.

Xue Jiamin rubbed his head.

……

But the teacher quickly went to the remaining students who had not yet performed.

I looked at the players around me who were all looking nervous...

Xue Jiamin returned to the lounge as the teacher instructed.

……

Watching the performances of other contestants, Xue Jiamin almost thought he had forgotten about the tail.

But when he saw Xie Chuchu coming to the lounge, he thought about it again.

Maybe... it's because Xie Chuchu knows that memory of his.

Therefore, he could tell the other party about his discovery just now.

……

"You saw the tail for a moment and never saw it again?"

Xie Chuchu summarized it very concisely and clearly.

She emphasized the word tail.

Or just the tail?
This child is obsessed with the leopard with a human face.

How could he recognize the other person just by looking at his tail?
……

Xue Jiamin subconsciously wanted to say something in rebuttal.

But soon he found that he had nothing to refute.

because……

The other person is right.

He did catch a glimpse of the tail at that moment.

A very quick glance.

Later... no matter how hard he searched... he never found the tail again.

……

It was all because the judges spoke at that time...

Xue Jiamin thought with some resentment.

Distracted his attention...
