"Can anyone play it in one minute?"
"No!" Mr. Liu shook his head, "It’s said that Chopin himself could."
Suddenly, the stopped music started again, this ti lively and relaxing, bringing even more lightness and pleasure to the mood.
Mr. Liu laughed heartily, his smile filled with pride. His daughter had finally beco a Phoenix, one day she would be famous around the world.
Sheng Ning listened carefully, his eyes lighting up with excitent, "I know this piece, it’s ’To Alice.’"
"Exactly, she knows you’ve arrived, she’s welcoming you! Go on up, child!" Mr. Liu looked at Sheng Ning with gratitude, still watching as he disappeared at the top of the stairs.
Yilan had locked herself in her room for so long, unwilling to see anyone. He hadn’t expected her to anticipate a friend so much, ’To Alice.’ A friend she knew for just one short year held such an important place. Mr. Liu couldn’t help but feel a little jealous, this girl...
After turning away from the piano, Liu Yilan waited quietly for Sheng Ning to enter. The three scars on her face remained unsightly, but when she smiled, they sohow imparted a strange and peaceful strength.
"I knew you and I were the sa," Sheng Ning said, smiling as she entered the room, "Indeed, we are the sa!" From the first mont she saw Liu Yilan after her rebirth, she felt they were the sa, or rather, they had the sa soul. She was certain Liu Yilan wasn’t reborn, but her ideas, her consciousness felt so fitting.
"I think so too, I knew there was sothing special about you!" Liu Yilan said, her spirit unyielding, "Am I right? Rebirth?"
Sheng Ning paused, and then it dawned on her, "Yes!" She should have known she couldn’t hide it from Liu Yilan, her intelligence must have let her guess everything when Phoenix erged.
Sheng Ning approached Liu Yilan, extending her delicate hand, "I’m glad that you’ve been reborn from the ashes."
Liu Yilan stood up, her facial scars blurring in this mont. Her eyes shone like stars, confident and beautiful. She clasped Sheng Ning’s hand tightly, her voice trembling, "I am reborn from the ashes, you are Rebirth, may we both achieve our hearts’ desires."
"Definitely!" Who now could stop Liu Yilan in her tracks?
"Definitely!" Sheng Ning, so clever and vibrant, content with simplicity yet destined for greatness— who could stop her?
In the future, no matter what difficulties they faced, they would fearlessly persevere, and ultimately, they would leave their mark on this era.
"How is Qin Cuifen?" Liu Yilan might have escaped the darkness, but she couldn’t forget her enemy. Her face was so easily ruined, and she couldn’t swallow her pride if Qin Cuifen still lived a carefree life. She already knew through her aunt that Qin Cuifen had been driven out of the General Union, but she wanted to know what happened after that.
As people say, a deep understanding brings tacit understanding; Liu Yilan didn’t need to ask, Sheng Ning was prepared to tell her, "After returning ho, she pinned all her wrongdoings on , but my mother-in-law saw through it. After the miscarriage, she couldn’t stay in the village and went to the city. At the ti of my wedding, I heard she was kept by a small Boss from the South."
Liu Yilan listened without showing any dissatisfaction or pain and asked, "Was Qin Cuifen’s rape by Zhao Zhiqiang a sche you and Chen Huaying cooked up?"
Sheng Ning shook her head, "We planned it, yes, but it also required Hai Lan to take the action."
