"I would like to gift you this bouquet. You deserve it!" Shen Mozhen's eyes were full of appreciation. If it wasn't for Liu Man's assistance, she probably would've already turned her performance into a fiasco. And now, she wouldn't be facing flowers and applause; she would be facing defamation from the audience, scoldings from her parents, and disappointment from her teacher.

The audience that didn't know the truth felt even stranger. Liu Man's Guqin performance was low-tiered! What did she even play? Wasn't she only muddling along? Why was Shen Mozhen looking at her with a grateful expression?

Besides, this triangle relationship looked too complicated. Tang Tu gave his flowers to his ex-girlfriend, but his ex-girlfriend gave the flowers to her love rival. Seeing Tang Tu's perplexed look, he didn't seem to have known what was going on either.

Everyone silently lit up a candle for Tang Tu.

TL's Note: R.I.P

They thought Tang Tu's ex-girlfriend and his current crush were completely ignoring and abandoning him. They were sympathetic to each other and became best friends.

But Tang Tu was Tang Tu, and he soon realized what Shen Mozhen had meant. He also listened to Liu Man's supportive part just now.

The smile in his eyes became bigger, and he told Shen Mozhen and Liu Man, "It's my fault. I should've prepared two bouquets."

Liu Man, bewildered, took over the flower and held it in her arms with a confused expression. Still feeling bewildered, she stood with Shen Mozhen and Tang Tu, receiving the loud applause from the audience and all kinds of strange looks.

It was Shen Mozhen's graduation concert, where she was the main character today. Liu Man felt as if she was stealing all the attention. However, she was already staying very low-profile, and she didn't take the initiative to steal all the attention.

The trio stood on the stage, and they had matching temperaments and appearances. No one got suppressed by the others. They were looking so brilliant, and they were the real chosen ones.

There wasn't a single hint of ambiguity or entanglement in the trio's open and dauntless expressions. Now that everyone thought about Zhang Daqiang's exposure post, they felt as if it was ridiculous.

Now was the time for the photographers to shoot the group photo. The other students who took part in the performance were really excited to see Tang Tu, and they crowded around the three of them.

Wen Fangfei, who was initially standing in the same row as Shen Mozhen and Liu Man, was squeezed to the very back and blocked by the others. In the group photo, only the tip of her head got shown.

Wen Fangfei, watching Shen Mozhen and the other two people's silhouettes, suddenly realized that these three people were the ones that belonged in the same world. Wen Fangfei herself seemed to have been secluded.

Wen Fangfei thought that as long as she tried her best to practice the instrument, one day, she would be able to reach or even surpass Senior Mozhen's level, and she would receive Senior Mozhen's recognition and admiration. However, Liu Man's appearance took away all of Senior Mozhen's attention. Liu Man's brilliance instantly covered everyone else. Not only did Senior Mozhen admire Liu Man, but she also seemed to have treated Liu Man like a confidant.

And Wen Fangfei herself became invisible.

She felt as if she was forgotten and abandoned by Shen Mozhen.

Her nose started becoming sour, and her eyes felt sour too.

She lowered her head and went down the stage alone, walking backstage while feeling lonely.
