After Rebirth, She Shines

Chapter 37 Secret

The world's most renowned pianist was actually so respectful towards Miah!

By the side, Eastside University's art instructor was the first to recover from his shock. "Master Deon, do you... know this student?"

"Yes."

The other teachers immediately struck while the iron was hot. "This child is very smart. Not only does she excel in academics, but she's also very talented! Why don't you take her in as a disciple so that you can teach her your excellent piano skills?"

Deon frowned and replied, "No."

As soon as he finished speaking, disappointment flashed across the eyes of the leaders.

Martha and her followers couldn't help laughing.

"Hahaha, even if they know each other, so what? A scum is a scum. It's impossible for Deon to take Miah in as a student!"

"That's right. Only Ms. Barnes is the piano goddess of Eastside University!"

The group of people discussed among themselves.

But Deon's next words completely shocked those who had looked down upon Miah!

"Student Miah's skills are unparalleled. She's not inferior to me at all. I don't dare to accept her as a disciple!"

"Wh-what?"

Several school leaders were already shocked.

Was what Deon just sad a joke?

No, it was impossible.

Even if he was joking, he wouldn't joke with them. After all, Deon had always been indifferent to them before!

Martha couldn't believe that Deon, whom she admired the most, actually said that Miah was better than her?

What the hell is this? Could it be that Miah is an epic piano player?

Deon knew that Miah didn't want to expose herself, but he desperately wanted to hear her perform in person. So he stepped forward politely and made a gesture of inviting her.

"Miah, may I play a song with you?"

"It is my honour." 

Miah gladly accepted the invitation and the two of them each took a piano. They played a duet on the spot!

Deon William was given the title of "Piano Devil" ever since he was a teenager. His style of playing the piano was known for its wild and unrestrained nature, as well as its mysterious and ever-changing quality.

At first, the low notes he played were gentle and warm, but as he reached the middle range, they became full-bodied and powerful, like a sudden thunderstorm rolling in on a small island, with raindrops hitting the roofs in a heavy and resounding manner that made one's heart skip a beat.

At this moment, a high note sounded!

Miah's fingers were like fluttering butterfly wings.

With the flexible movement of her fingers, a series of clear high notes followed, causing all the heavy raindrops to turn into a sparkling cascade of pearls, falling down with a beautiful and mesmerizing sound.

When Deon heard her music, he instantly became excited.

The sound of the piano beneath his finger was even more magnificent.

Accompanied by Miah Sampson's extremely beautiful high notes, the people in the auditorium were already dumbfounded!

Martha couldn't believe it.

This... this was impossible!

How could Miah make such great progress overnight?

She tried her best to find a flaw, but she couldn't find it no matter how hard she tried.

On the contrary, the more seriously she listened, the more she could feel the terrifying foundation of Miah's strength.

In the end, she burst into tears!

She was tortured until she cried!

"Ms. Barnes, Ms. Barnes?"

Seeing her like this, the student next to her thought that she was moved by the music. "The teacher is indeed professional. She actually cried from listening to the music, here take a tissue!"

Martha was speechless.

After an unknown period of time, the joint performance between Deon and Miah was finally over!

Under the stage, the thunder-like applause resounded.

"Great, you've played so well!"

"Miah, you're amazing!"

"Miah, my goddess!"

"Deon, Deon, Deon!"

Soon, the incident at the piano hall was spread throughout the entire Eastside University's music festival.

Miah Sampson and Deon William's duet undoubtedly pushed the entire art festival to a climax.

After that, at the backstage, Deon found Miah. Finally he could talk to her in private.

"Long time no see, junior!"

Miah turned out to be Deon's junior!

During the time when Deon's piano teacher was alive, he often mentioned that Deon was the student he was most proud of. However, he actually had a closed disciple whose talent was higher than Deon's!

Deon never knew the name of his junior sister. He only knew that his teacher called her Xiao Wu Little Five. He was full of praise for her comprehension and piano-playing skills!

Today, listening to Miah Sampson playing the piano was like hearing celestial music that enlightened the ears. Deon William was extremely delighted!

"Being able to see you in person and to hear you play the piano, it's amazing!"

"Master didn't lie to me. I really do have a prodigy junior!"

Miah nodded. "I'm flattered, senior. You've made great achievements in the piano field over the past few years. Your achievements are far above mine. I don't dare to compare with you."

Miah was telling the truth.

All these years, she did not focus on music.

In terms of skills, Deon was better.

But Deon didn't think so. In his heart, Miah was a prodigy. He admired her very much.

After saying goodbye to Deon, Miah went to the bathroom alone.

In the ladies' room, Miah was tidying up her appearance in the mirror. Suddenly, Miah saw a figure coming out of the stalls from the reflection in the mirror, she was wearing high heels and her eyes were cold.

Martha looked at her with hostility.

"Miah, what's the relationship between you and Deon? Why did he teach you how to play the piano?"

Martha was puzzled. Why did Deon know Miah? And why could Miah piano so well?

After thinking about it for a while, she felt that there was only one possibility!

That was to say, Deon had taken her as his disciple!

"Tell me, did you use some improper means to make him accept you as his disciple?"

Miah fiddled with his hair in front of the mirror and looked at Martha in the mirror. She smiled mockingly at her.

Seeing her smile, Martha was so angry that her whole body trembled.

"Raul told me that Bobby's girlfriend this time was not an ordinary person. I thought you were very capable. It turns out that you are also a good-for-nothing who only knows how to climb into bed and seduce men!"

"Pa!"

Miah raised her hand and made a clear and loud slap on Martha's face!

Martha was stunned.

The next second, she raised her hand and was about to hit Miah.

But her wrist was caught in the air.

Miah grabbed her wrist and pressed her against the wall of the bathroom!

Martha struggled desperately. "What, what are you doing? Are you trying to hit the teacher?"

"Don't take advantage of your status as a teacher. You, Martha, are not qualified to be my teacher!"

"I'm going to fail you at the end of the semester—ah!"

With just a slight twist of Miah's wrist, Martha was in so much pain that she screamed out in pain!

Miah Sampson's fair and slender hands held onto Martha Barnes' head, and her red lips exhaled by Martha's ears.

"Martha, don't forget."

"You are just a substitute teacher in Eastside University, you're not a real educator."

"What's more, even Deon said it just now."

"Your piano level after more than ten years of studying is not even comparable to that of a professional student. You are just relying on your wealthy family to live off of, so don't think you can act arrogantly in front of me!"

After saying that, Miah shook off Martha.

Martha almost lost her balance.

She looked at Miah awkwardly and said fiercely, "I'm showing off?"

"Miah, since you are so capable, did you know how Bobby Gallagher's legs became crippled?"
