Chapter 544 - Going to the Imperial Capital to Compete
Chapter 544: Going to the Imperial Capital to Compete
Xia Xibei was very busy these days, and she had to find time to compete in the English competition.
The teachers were worried about her results before. After all, she was so busy. How could she have time to prepare?
However, after seeing the results, everyone had nothing but admiration.
She got almost a perfect score on the written test. Her oral exam was even more impeccable.
No one knew when she had practiced, yet the moment she opened her mouth, she had a genuine British accent.
Once the elegant British accent came out, she instantly transformed into an elegant, noble lady and defeated the other students.
Finally, she entered the province’s final in first place.
However, it was not easy to get good results in the province’s competition.
Even Xia Qinghan did not dare to have too much hope.
However, Xia Xibei’s performance was outstanding as always. Her confident and generous posture and her calm and smooth delivery, coupled with her outstanding appearance, really made people unable to take their eyes off of her.
It could be said that as soon as she appeared, she immediately drew everyone’s attention to her, leaving no room for others.
Looking at the radiant Xia Xibei on the stage and listening to the excited whispered discussions of the spectators around her, Xia Qinghan’s teeth were about to be ground into powder.
She just didn’t understand why Xia Xibei always had to overshadow her?!
When she thought about the recording of “Full Steam Ahead” and the airing that would come afterward, she hated her even more.
Originally, she thought Li Weiyun would teach Xia Xibei a lesson, but to her surprise, Li Weiyun didn’t act at all!
Because of her preoccupied mind, Xia Qinghan stumbled a bit in her speech and was not quite perfect.
In the end, Xia Xibei took first place, while Xia Qinghan’s result was very unsatisfactory and quite worse than expected.
Looking at the beautiful people receiving awards on the stage, Xia Qinghan’s heart was full of gloom.
She had thought that this competition was the end, but she didn’t expect that the two people who won first prize would have to go to the national competition in the imperial capital!
When listening to the host announce this matter, Xia Qinghan couldn’t help but feel her heart jump and her face turn a little white.
The imperial capital?
Why wasn’t this mentioned before? Wasn’t it over after the provincial competition?
If she had known that she was going to compete in the imperial capital, she would have tried her best!
However, things had now come to this point, and the result couldn’t be changed.
However, Xia Qinghan didn’t expect that after going back to tell Bai Meixue about this matter, the older woman would surprise her with her intense reaction.
“What?!” Bai Meixue’s face was full of shock. “What did you say? Xia Xibei is going to compete in the imperial capital?!”
“Yes…”
Xia Qinghan was stunned; Bai Meixue’s reaction was too exaggerated.
Although she also did not want Xia Xibei to go to the Imperial City competition either, she didn’t need to react so violently.
Bai Meixue paced back and forth, her face miserably pale and ugly.
“No, we absolutely can’t let her go to the imperial capital!”
“Why?” Xia Qinghan was curious. “Why can’t we let her go there?”
Bai Meixue jerked her head up and stared at her closely, her eyes dark and inexplicable. “If she goes to the imperial capital, she might… She just can’t go there!”
Although the imperial capital was large and Xia Xibei would not necessarily run into those people, who could guarantee it?
Therefore, the best way to prevent that problem was to keep Xia Xibei here.
The look in Bai Meixue’s eyes scared Xia Qinghan and chilled her heart.
“When is she going to the competition?”
“It sounds like next week.”
“Next week…” Bai Meixue’s eyes became even more chilly.
Xia Qinghan’s heart also lifted into the air. What was she planning to do?
