Chapter 975: Master Pei Questions Ruan Shushu
Ruan Shushu lost the competition tonight and got a harsh slap in the face; her mood was extremely bad.
When she received Pei Hong’s call, her heart skipped a beat, feeling a little scared.
Seeing Pei Hong’s serious expression, maybe because of her guilty conscience, she felt a chill in her heart.
"Master."
Pei Hong sat at the podium, his gaze probing, "Was your Fuxi Finger Technique taught by Xia Weibao?"
The straightforward question made Ruan Shushu’s face turn pale.
She had expected Pei Hong to ask her why she lost, or why Yan Yuexian knew the Fuxi Finger Technique.
But never imagined it would be about Xia Weibao.
Ruan Shushu’s hands and feet were cold, swallowing in fear.
Her eyes were full of terror.
Pei Hong knew that Xia Weibao taught her the Fuxi Finger Technique, what about the video, does he know it too?
Thinking of the consequences if Pei Hong knew about the video, she felt her vision darken, unable to stand.
The expression already said it all, Pei Hong’s eyes were filled with disappointment.
"Since Xia Weibao taught you, why did you say you learned it from a book back then?"
Ruan Shushu panicked internally, gripping the hem of her clothes tightly; since Pei Hong only asked if Xia Weibao taught her and didn’t mention the video, it means he doesn’t know about the video substitution.
She can’t let herself fall apart; she must deal with whatever comes her way calmly.
"Xia Weibao is a celebrity, I was her personal assistant at the time. As an assistant, you can’t reveal private information about a celebrity, otherwise, it’s a violation of the assistant’s agreement."
She was doing a summer job then, coupled with her mother’s connections, Xia Weibao was easy-going, so she hadn’t received any assistant training, nor signed any contracts.
These things didn’t exist, but they could be used as excuses.
Although Pei Hong was displeased, he knew that people around celebrities indeed have confidentiality agreements.
This matter couldn’t be blamed on Ruan Shushu.
Having been deceived, his heart was very unhappy.
"You can go now."
Ruan Shushu breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, Pei Hong cared for her, otherwise, she wouldn’t have been able to pass this hurdle.
"Wait."
Just when she was leaving, Pei Hong suddenly spoke, causing Ruan Shushu’s heart to jump into her throat again.
"Master, is there anything else?"
"Yan Yuexian has also joined the Folk Music Department, you can look out for each other at school, and also learn more from her."
Ruan Shushu was struck by lightning!
The color of her face instantly drained, a chilling cold climbed up her spine.
When Xia Weibao played "Ambush from Ten Sides", Yan Yuexian was also present.
Yan Yuexian also kept that video; if she joins the Folk Music Department and accidentally exposes the video, then the consequences...
Fear surged from the bottom of her heart.
From the first lie, it was destined to be an anxious wait.
Seeing her pale face, Pei Hong frowned, "Why do you look so bad, are you feeling unwell."
"No... I’m fine, maybe just a bit tired."
"If you’re tired, go back and rest early."
"Okay, Master, you should go back early too, be careful on the road."
"I’m not going back to the association for now, I need to visit Xia Weibao tomorrow to invite her to join the Folk Music Department."
Ruan Shushu’s legs went weak, almost falling.
Her face turned completely white.
Afraid that Pei Hong would notice anything, she quickly left.
But at the corner, she supported herself against the wall to prevent falling.
Xia Weibao is going to join the Folk Music Department, what should she do?
If Pei Hong sees Xia Weibao playing the instrument, it will definitely expose everything.
How will Pei Hong look at her then, how will everyone look at her, will everything she has now disappear?
No, she worked hard to get here; she absolutely can’t lose it!
