Chapter 536 Ms. Ezequiel Showed Up
Wasn’t Lamont pampering her? She still thought it was not enough and came here to get attention?!
Heh, was she going to compare these students with one of her identities? Shameless!
What was the point of winning like this?
That was unfair!
The students of University of Illinois at Chicago were a little nervous and restrained when they saw that the members of University of Chicago talent team were also resting here.
After all, the University of Chicago was the highest–level university in Chicago. In comparison, the
University of Illinois at Chicago was slightly inferior…
However, the rest areas of the two schools were close together, which made people inexplicably tense and psychologically stressed…
Paige glanced at everyone, “Everyone takes a break in your own field and adjusts your mentality.
The competition will start in 20 minutes.”
A girl in a white skirt couldn’t help but said, “Paige, I’m a little nervous…”
“Me too…” Another girl in a black dress said anxiously, “Although I have studied piano for five years, the contestants this time contain students from some musical universities. I’m afraid I may make a fool of myself…”
Before she could finish expressing her anxiety, she heard someone mocking her.
“You dare to participate in the competition after only five years of study? Surely you will humiliate yourself! I have been learning the piano since I was three years old, and it is now fifteen years. I dare not even sign up for the piano competition…”
The speaker was Lilly Raphael from the Music Department of University of Chicago. Her fingers landed on the piano keys next to her, and she played a piece of world famous music with one hand, and deliberately showed off her speed and piano skills.
When the students of the University of Illinois at Chicago heard this, they were stunned and even more ashamed. They didn’t expect her to play the piano so well and so quickly… Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
What to do? They shouldn’t sign up for the competition…
Not only would they make fools of themselves, but they would also humiliate University of Illinois at Chicago…
After Lilly finished playing a piece of the famous piece, people from University of Chicago applauded and praised her for playing it well.
The people in University of Illinois at Chicago were silent, and no one said anything.
“After learning for fifteen years, you still played a wrong note. How dare you criticize others?” At this time, Paige smiled and said casually, “You haven’t even interpreted half of the artistic conception of the song. Even you’ve learned it for fifteen years, you’re still not as good as those who learn for five years.”
When everyone heard it, they were stunned.
Even the students of University of Illinois at Chicago looked up at Paige with admiration in their eyes.
Lilly made a mistake? Paige could notice it! Amazing!
“Ah?? I didn’t notice it…” Someone from University of Chicago said.

“I’ve also learned piano for ten years. If Lilly played a wrong note, I would have noticed…”
“Lilly is a talented girl from the Music Department of University of Chicago, how could she make such a low–level mistake?”
“Lilly, what do you say?”
Just now, in order to show off her piano skills in front of everyone, Lilly did accidentally play a wrong note.
She had thought that speed would help her cover it up, because the wrong note sounded extremely close to the right note next to it. Even if a music professor had been present, they would not have been able to tell the difference if they had not listened closely.
But Paige was able to notice her mistake in such a short period of time and point it out…
Could it be that Paige’s knowledge in piano was deeper than hers??
“Lilly, you didn’t make a mistake just now, it was she who slandered you, right? If so, I want her to apologize immediately.”
“Lilly, why don’t you speak?”
“Y–Your face is a bit pale…”
Lilly sat back in her seat, no longer paying attention to other people’s words.
The people of University of Chicago seemed to have an arrogance in their bones, they were always so superior and looked down on others…
Even if they did something wrong, they would not admit it themselves.
“So someone played it wrong just now?” The people from University of Illinois at Chicago began to sneer, “After seeing that arrogant, self–righteous look, I thought she should be good. But it turned out just like this?”
“So the talented girl in the Music Department of University of Chicago is nothing more than this…”
The people at University of Chicago couldn’t sit still, and retorted, “Who are you talking about?”
Students from University of Illinois at Chicago replied, “Whoever gets angry at what I said. Now I see that the students educated by the highest–level university are like this. You are all impetuous. Those who don’t know might think that your cafeteria only serves chili peppers, so that you’re fed to be jumpy and headstrong…”
Students from University of Chicago couldn’t stand it, “W–What evidence do you have to prove that Lilly played wrongly? If not, apologize to her immediately, otherwise, we University of Chicago will never let you go.”
Students from University of Illinois at Chicago continued, “What No. 1 Scholar said proves she played it wrong…‘
“Enough! Shut up!” At this moment, Lilly couldn’t help but scolded, “Be quiet.”
‘She really didn’t want to hear people repeating that she played a wrong note.
Patricia at the side was left speechless by what her schoolmates were saying…
Paige was a master of listening. She said Lilly played it wrong, then Lilly definitely played it wrong!
She was a piano master!!
Even if they couldn’t see that Paige was a master, at least Lilly’s reaction had already explained everything…
However, these people were ignorant, stupid, and didn’t know how to read words and expressions. They were humiliating themselves here and asking for trouble…
In spite of her speechlessness and stolidity, Patricia, for the moment, tried not to be noticed, and did not show her face to attract Paige’s attention.
When it came to righteous things, Patricia wouldn’t show any respect. If, in her anger, she had exposed herself as a false lady…
On such a big occasion today, she would be ashamed.
The two sides were quiet for a while, until the crowd of University of Chicago let out exclamations.
“Deborah, your family is so rich, and you spent another four million dollars to collect Ms. Ezequiel’s works…”
“Oh my, this picture is so well drawn…”
“Four million must be just chicken feed to your Jennings family!”
“You’re so loaded.”
Ms. Ezequiel’s high level of painting was known to everyone in the painting world.
She was known as America’s paintbrush, the sage of Western painting and a master of the world of painting.
With superb painting skills, smooth brushwork, and bold creation, she had brought the entire painting art to a higher level by herself.
Each of her works had achieved the effect of painting with full intention, both form and spirit, and vivid charm.
She was a big figure in the painting circle and was admired by others.
“Ms. Ezequiel is my favorite painter, also my only favorite.” Deborah Jennings smiled and said softly, “My parents know that I like her, so as long as it is her work, they will find a way to take it home as a gift to me. This is Ms. Ezequiel’s new work – Mountains and Rivers. This exquisite painting skill is beyond the reach of ordinary painters.”
Everyone admired the new work on her mobile phone again and nodded in praise.
“That’s right. She has portrayed the spirits and shapes that are most difficult to capture in the paintings, which is so admirable.”
“Other painters either don’t interpret the meaning well, or don’t express enough spirit… But Ms. Ezequiel’s works are not only refreshing in style, but also very personal. I am also one of her fans.”
“Your parents love you so much! They even help you collect Ms. Ezequiel’s works. Another pair of model good parents.”
“Boohoo, your parents seem to be different from mine…”
