Bab 160: Getting Closer

Two days later, the highly anticipated annual National Piano Competition award ceremony unfolded at Qingyou Theater as scheduled.

In the morning, a swarm of reporters eagerly gathered at the theater's entrance, aiming to capture close-ups of this year's most talked-about competitor: Cheng Yuqi, the daughter of the country's wealthiest man.

Cheng Yuqi, born into affluence and blessed with striking beauty, had been a virtuoso in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting since her early years. Countless admirers viewed her as the epitome of a life winner.

Recognizing her own family's less privileged background, Fang Jiayi diligently prepared for the event, waking up early to enhance her appearance and outshine her rival.

Over the past two days, Fang Liguo liquidated all the family cars, pooling additional funds to acquire a luxurious Maybach S680 valued at seven million yuan to support his daughter.
