Chapter 31 School Anniversary Celebration

The school anniversary of Haili University expected by its students came as scheduled.

That day, Haili University was especially lively. There were a sea of people, and many grads came back to visit.

After nine o'clock, everyone moved to the auditorium to watch the performance.

Mu Tianen and Qiu Ziyi sat in the designated seats of their class in the auditorium. Mu Tianen looked around for her parents after receiving a message that they had entered here.

"Tianen, there are too many people. It's hard to find them."

Hearing Qiu Ziyi's words and feeling indeed tired, Mu Tianen retracted her gaze and said, "Alright."

Suddenly the lights went dull in front of her, and she heard the aggressive words above her head, "Mu Tianen, why are you still sitting here? You should be the first to appear on the stage after the opening speech."

Mu Tianen looked up at Ji Liping who had said, "I didn't sign up for it."

It was Ji Liping who was standing in front of Mu Tianen. She crossed her arms around her chest, with obvious gloat in her eyes.

"But your name is already on the performance list. If you don't go on stage, not only you but your parents, brothers, and sisters will lose face."

Qiu Ziyi had already taken out her phone and logged into the school campus network, only to find that Mu Tianen's name was ranked first on the current performance list.

She handed her phone to Mu Tianen. The latter raised her eyebrows and looked at Ji Liping again. "You did that?"

Although it was a question, her tone was very certain.

Ji Liping's heart skipped a beat and she turned a little nervous, "Mu Tianen, don't talk nonsense. I'm just here to remind you. No good deed goes unpunished!"

Mu Tianen did not ask further. Instead, she stood up and Ji Liping retreated backward. "Mu Tianen, what are you gonna do ?" Ji Liping asked cautiously.

"Of course, prepare for the program. Beating you can't solve the problem." After finishing her sentence, Mu Tianen waved her hand at Qiu Ziyi.

Qiu Ziyi was very worried, so she immediately followed Mu Tianen and left. But she glared at Ji Liping before leaving.

"Tianen," Qiu Ziyi caught up with Mu Tianen, "Although the faculty advisor was not in charge of signing up, can we ask the faculty advisor to find someone else to substitute for you?"

"It's no use," Mu Tianen shook her head, "My name was already on the list. I'd better think about what to perform."

"What do you want to perform?"

Mu Tianen frowned in frustration. She did not know what to do.

"What do they usually perform?"

"Singing, dancing, reciting poems, and playing musical instruments, sort of things like these probably." Qiu Ziyi was also not sure.

Mu Tianen had a flash of inspiration and punched her left palm with her right hand. A smile appeared on her delicate and sweet face. "I know what to perform. Zi Yi, go back and wait."

Watching Mu Tianen running away, Qiu Ziyi could not help but laugh.

On the other side, the four of the Mu family had already sat on the VIP seats.

Wen Jia took out her mobile phone and wanted to call her younger daughter, but the line was busy, "Who is Sweetie talking to?"

"Maybe Leng Yan," Mu Tianheng said casually.

Wen Jia wanted to say something, but someone came to greet them, so she had to stop.

Mu Tianen didn't call Leng Yan but Cai Di. She asked Cai Di to go home to bring something here so that she could perform.

Mu family's butler also received a call from Mu Tianen and was asked to go to her room to find the thing and stood at the door waiting for someone to get it.

Mu Tianen stood at the north gate of Haili and waited. There were probably still many people waiting at the main entrance.

Although many people were in the auditorium, they had the invitations. Those without invitations could stroll around the school at will.

"I've already helped you change your performance," Jin Yi came and said.

On the performance list, someone signed Mu Tianen up to sing. She knew she was tone deaf, so she could only ask her Eldest Senior Brother Jin Yi to help her.

"Okay, thank you, my Eldest Senior Brother." Mu Tianen was not nervous because Cai Di promised her that she would arrive five minutes before she went on stage. Cai Di never ate her words. Mu Tianen took a chocolate from the Eight Treasure Bag, tore it open, and stuffed it into her mouth.

"I investigated. It was Ji Liping who signed you up. I will handle it." Jin Yi said as his eyes darkened under his gold-rimmed glasses.

Mu Tianen had expected it. Ji Liping probably wanted her to lose face at the school anniversary. Her Eldest Senior Brother would help her deal with it, so she needn't care anymore. She nodded happily.

Suddenly, the two of them raised their heads and looked outside. The familiar sound of tires rubbing against the ground had already told them that Cai Di had arrived.

As they looked up, a silver car appeared on the other side of the straight road and drove extremely fast. In the blink of an eye, it reached them and stopped perfectly with a drift.

"Fifth Senior Sister, I'll learn how to drive from you this weekend," Mu Tianen got what she wanted and said with sparkling eyes.

The opening speech had already started in the auditorium. When the four of the Mu family heard that Mu Tianen was about to perform on stage, they were stunned.

"Did Sweetie say she had signed up for the performance?" Wen Jia asked.

"No, I've asked." Mu Tianheng instantly noticed the problem and took out his phone, planning to call Mu Tianen.

"There's no need. She's on stage."

Mu Tianyu's words made them all look at the stage.

Mu Tianen was still wearing what she wore as she left home in the morning. She wore a cartoon shirt, a pair of jeans, carrying the Eight Treasure Bag, and holding a jade flute that should have been on the shelf in her room.

A rarely serious expression appeared on her face.

"I have never heard Sweetie playing the flute." Wen Jia completely believed her daughter.

The other three of the Mu family also agreed.

Mu Tianen walked onto the stage and saw her parents sitting in the first row. She smiled at them and raised her hand to turn the jade flute, making it near her red lips. She took a deep breath and slowly lowered her eyes.

Leng Yan at first didn't have time to come, but a temporary emergency happened, and he would have to go on a business trip for a while, so he came to see Mu Tianen.

As soon as Leng Yan entered the auditorium, he heard a melodious flute sound.

It was very gentle but uncontrollably flowed into the heart of people, making them feel ecstatic as if it could wash away all the irritability and other impurities.

The sound of the flute was continuous, and everyone thought it would always be like this, bringing them into an illusionary world.

The next moment, the gentle sound of the flute suddenly became exciting and majestic.

It made people feel like they suddenly came to a towering peak from heaven on earth, making them scared to breathe but curious to explore off the cliff, so they could not help hearing.

Leng Yan lowered his head to appreciate Mu Tianen in the middle of the stage. She was extremely confident. The light shining on her seemed to cover her with a layer of light, making her a little fairy accidentally getting lost in the human world.

Mu Tianen was innocent, cute, and full of vitality. When she was doing something carefully, she had another charm to attract people.

Leng Yan had never heard this tune before. It should be self-created. This time, he discovered the Little girl's talents for flute and composition. How many unknown talents did she have?

He was looking forward to discovering these talents.

"Sweetie is amazing," Wen Jia said full of gratification.

"Because she is my daughter, my daughter is always excellent." Mu Zongwen smiled with narrowing eyes.

"Dad, are you praising yourself?" Mu Tianheng smiled.

"Agree." Although Mu Tianyu's expression was cold, there was a faint smile in the corner of his eyes.

The tune was not long and lasted less than five minutes. Mu Tianen closed her eyes with thick and curly eyelashes the entire time. After the last note finished and the jade flute left her moist mouth, she opened her eyes, smiled, and lowered her head slightly, "Thank you."

Mu Tianen was not used to performing in front of enormous people, but she did not have stage fright.

"Queen Mu is brilliant."

A high voice came from the audience. Everyone came back to earth from the beautiful sound of the flute. They turned around and saw Li Yang and his people shouting, standing up, and clapping hard.

Mu Tianen looked at the sound-maker and signed with the jade flute to let him sit down.

It was too high-profile.

When Mu Tianen walked off the stage, the audience remembered to applaud. She deserved it.

Only then did the host quickly go up, " Mu Tianen's song seems to make us in paradise. It's so beautiful and melodious. Let's applaud her again."

After a deafening round of applause, the host continued to introduce the next show.

When Mu Tianen walked out, Jin Yi clapped his hands three times and said gently with a smile, "Little Seven, you slack off."

"Hehe, I'm lazy after going down the mountain. Don't tell Master." Mu Tianen smiled fawningly.

"Okay, you go back and watch the performance."

Mu Tianen nodded obediently.

When Mu Tianen was far away, the killing intent hidden in Jin Yi's eyes instantly showed. The people passing by couldn't help but shrink their shoulders, but when they looked around, they didn't know where this frightening feeling came from.

Mu Tianen took out her phone after walking far away. She wanted to call her parents but saw a message before doing so.

"Tianen, the tune sounds good. Your perfomance is amazing. " The message read.

Mu Tianen jumped up in surprise, and she looked at the phone screen with a silly smile.

After a while, he ran out and dialed Leng Yan's number.

Leng Yan was already heading backstage, so Mu Tianen saw him before getting through.

"Brother Yan, didn't you say you wouldn't come?" Mu Tianen asked happily as she ran over.

"It just happens that I have time. You are good at flute." Leng Yan's deep eyes curved up.

Mu Tianen smiled more happily after hearing the praise, "But I've slacked off after going down the mountain. My Eldest Senior Brother knows that once he hears my flute sound," said Mu Tianen.

"Has your Eldest Senior Brother ever heard of it?" Leng Yan's eyes flashed, but his expression did not change.

"Yes, my jade flute was taught by my Eldest Senior Brother. Although he went down the mountain at eighteen, I will video him to hear me playing the flute. Master will also guide me." Mu Tianen explained, "Alright, let's continue to watch the show."

"No, I came here to see you. I'll be going abroad soon," Leng Yan shook his head.

"Another business trip? Why didn't my brother go on any business trip?" Mu Tianen pouted.

"We do business in different directions," Leng Yan said with a slight smile.

"Alright, when are you coming back?"

It was what Mu Tianen truly wanted to know.

This time, Leng Yan could give Mu Tianen an answer. "At least a week, and at most half a month. This time, I must buy you a gift."

Mu Tianen was still a little unhappy. When she heard this, she immediately turned delighted. "Alright, I'll remember it. You can't forget it. Otherwise, I will be very disappointed and angry with you even if you treat me to many meals."

"Alright." Leng Yan raised his hand and placed it on top of Mu Tianen's head, "Good girl."

Mu Tianen pouted and nodded reluctantly.

Her appearance was pitiful but also very cute. Leng Yan couldn't help but pinch her cheek instead of touching the top of her head.

Her face felt very soft and smooth.

Leng Yan raised his eyebrows and pinched her face twice more.
