A country girl is still a country girl, treating the violin like a large saw she's trying to work.

Did she think the violin competition was about sawing trees in their village?

It's utterly embarrassing.

The judges couldn't help but shake their heads in silence.

Moira even wanted to turn around and leave.

How on earth did Viola Thompson gather the courage to come on stage?

Although Viola didn't perform well, the host still professionally asked, “Contestant Number 108, are you ready?” The necessary procedures must be followed.

“I'm ready.”

The host half-heartedly said, “Looking forward to your performance.”

Performance.

Hearing this, the audience burst into another round of laughter.

What kind of performance can you expect from someone sawing away at a violin?

Viola didn't care about their laughter; she simply tilted her head slightly, rested her cheek against the violin and drew the bow across the strings.

“Oh, look at her trying to act all professional!” “Let's see how she'll leave the stage in shame.” Mocking laughter continued relentlessly.

But then, at that moment…

A lively note rang out in the air.

Viola pressed the tailpiece with one hand while drawing the bow with the other.

The bow danced up and down, and beautiful notes spilled forth effortlessly.

The lingering melody was soothing and melodious.

Her tall figure and jade-like skin, paired with her violin, created a breathtaking image that left people breathless.

In that instant…

The entire audience fell silent.

No one could have expected that Viola would actually play the violin.

And, more importantly, that she would play so well.

“The Butterfly Lovers” is an ancient piece of music.

And today, out of the 108 contestants, she's the only one performing a

traditional Sinian piece.

The violin is a Western instrument, and playing Western music with it would feel more natural and harmonious, and would likely result in higher scores.

Sinian traditional music is gentle and graceful, with more restrained emotions, unlike the passionate and unrestrained feelings of Westerners, making the violin more suitable for Western music.

As such, all the other contestants chose to play music from foreign countries today.

Even Elizabeth Thompson chose a Western classic.

But Viola not only conveyed the restraint and subtlety of traditional music through her performance on the violin…

She also infused her own emotions into the piece.

Making listeners resonate with her.

Even those who didn't understand the violin could hear the beautiful love story of Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai in the prelude of “The Butterfly

Lovers.”

Zhu Yingtai was a young lady naive to the ways of the world.

Liang Shanbo was a simple and honest scholar.

Their encounter was exceptionally beautiful.

Viola was also immersed in the world of music, unable to escape.

Meanwhile, in the corner…

A tall and straight figure stood there, watching the young girl on stage with an indescribable expression on his face.

The girl in his sight overlapped with the figure playing the violin in his memory.

so…

It was her, wasn't it?

Terrence Lentz squinted his eyes, his deep black irises unfathomable.

“Sir,”

At that moment, a blond-haired, blue-eyed foreigner walked in from outside.

Hearing this, Terrence pressed down on the brim of his hat, covering his eyebrows and eyes. “Speak.”

Venice leaned slightly forward, and whispered something into his ear.

After listening to Venice's words, Terrence pressed down on his hat again, and finally walked outside.

Watching Viola's performance on stage, Moira was momentarily dumbfounded.

This sound of the violin…

How could it be so familiar?

It was almost identical to what she had heard at the Thompson Clan last time!

Moreover, it was even more pleasant to listen to than before.

Most importantly…

Viola was only using an entry-level violin.

She couldn't imagine how beautiful the melody would be if Viola used a world-class violin like Elizabeth's.

Could it be…

The person who played the violin the last time wasn't Elizabeth at all?

But instead, the young girl on stage?

Thinking of this, Moira turned to look at Elizabeth next to her.

At this moment, Elizabeth's face was as white as a sheet.

Her eyes were wide open in disbelief.

What was going on?

How could this country girl Viola play the violin?

Furthermore, how could she play it so well?

It was also at this time…

That Elizabeth finally realized…

The violin sound Moira heard last time didn't come from the television but was played by Viola.

With this thought…

Elizabeth's face turned various shades of green and white, like a color palette, incredibly unsightly.

What was she supposed to do now?

Why was it that every time, this illegitimate child would steal what rightfully belonged to her?

Shameless!

The music continued, reaching the climax of the piece.

The two lovers, deeply in love, were separated by the constraints of the world.

Liang Shanbo was dead.

Who would love Zhu Yingtai anymore?

So, she cast aside her bright red wedding gown, rushed to Liang Shanbo's tomb, transformed into a butterfly, and entwined with Liang Shanbo for all eternity..
