Chapter 161: Chapter 83 You and Me_2

It’s still the Bach solo piece she knows by heart, played smoothly and full of emotion.

The first piece ended, and the judges were deep in thought.

The second piece was Beethoven’s "Cello Sonata No. 2 in G minor," which required piano accompaniment, so Jiang Yun slowly came up from backstage.

The audience and the judges were taken aback to see Jiang Yun, surprised at the identity of this contestant.

The cello’s melody was introduced by a heavy piano chord, and the opening adagio was rather somber and gloomy, clearly reflecting the nuances of each note’s strength. Essentially, the first movement was accompanied by the bright piano while the cello laid a soft foundation at the base, rising from low to high with an arpeggio, a characteristic feature of Beethoven’s sonatas. The ending gradually turned gentle.

The second movement was an allegro, beginning with a staccato passage, and the melody that followed accompanied by the piano had an undertone of lightness amidst the depth.

The second piece ended, and this time, the performance was somewhat beyond what the judges expected. The previously silent judges started whispering to one another.

Then came the third piece, Shostakovich’s "Cello Concerto No. 1." After much practice and with Fu Weiheng’s guidance, she developed a deeper understanding of this piece. The performance effect, needless to say, was stunning to everyone in the audience. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

All the performances ended, and not only the audience but even the judges were so shocked that they couldn’t help but applaud.

Finally, after all participants finished performing, the judges would announce the list of finalists on the spot.

The bright hall was filled with contestants and their families. When one of the judges took the stage with a microphone, the entire room fell silent, holding their breath in anticipation.

"The finalists were... (Those who entered the finals are...)"

The judge’s voice was somewhat delicate, and the official tone made Su Wan’s heart flutter with nerves. In her tension, she squeezed Fu Weiheng’s hand tighter and subconsciously closed her eyes.

"Contestant number two, Natasha."

Soon after, Su Wan saw a petite girl leap excitedly, hugging her family while cheering together.

Amidst the murmurs, the judge continued, "Contestant number five, Hugo..."

"And from China..."

When Su Wan heard "China," her heart leapt to her throat. Fu Weiheng saw her blushing little face and couldn’t help but chuckle, smoothing her hair and offering comfort.

"Contestant number seven, SuWan. These three players."

The first to cheer was Jiang Yun. Although she could anticipate this result, she couldn’t help but feel jubilant and grabbed Mu Qing’s hand, her eyes reddening with emotion.

The whole family was happy for her. Ye Fan, standing next to Su Wan, smiled sweetly and tugged at her skirt, saying, "Teacher Su, Auntie, you’re amazing!"

Fu Weijin: "Congratulations, Wanwan!"

Su Wan was stunned. Hearing her name come from the speakers, for that moment, she was so excited she couldn’t breathe. She looked at Ye Fan and Fu Weijin beside her, feeling warmth in her heart. This sudden joy made her nose sour, and tears welled up instantly.

She had thin skin and was surrounded by so many people, yet she couldn’t control the tears of joy. She simply grabbed the front of Fu Weiheng’s shirt and buried her face in his chest, sobbing quietly.

Fu Weiheng found her state amusing, laughing and crying as he pursed his lips and wrapped her shoulders, letting her cry as she wished.

When Fu Quan turned to see Su Wan like this, his previously cheerful expression sobered, and he frowned: "Oh, what’s wrong here?"

Fu Weiheng gently patted her head, deeply buried, and laughed in response: "She’s happy."

With those words, the whole family couldn’t help but laugh.

...

The next day was the final, and the piece required a concerto with piano accompaniment, based on the pieces played in the semifinals.

According to the order of the selected list, Su Wan was the third to perform. Today’s final was the ultimate competition of the Klein competition, quite significant. Even the audience was three times larger than yesterday, and the entire concert hall was packed.

Because it was the last competition, Su Wan wasn’t as composed as she was in the semifinals. Although she knew the pieces by heart, she couldn’t help but feel a bit nervous.

The first contestant had already taken the stage, and Su Wan glanced at the fifth contestant sitting next to her, who was also quite nervous, and suddenly started to miss Fu Weiheng.

All the way from being selected for the semifinals until now, Fu Weiheng always accompanied her patiently, practicing with her day and night, offering guidance, and even silently preparing for her concert.
