Bab 423: Always ten steps ahead.

Time came and Alix's name was called. Auntie Mo shook her awake and took Majesty from her. Grandpa Tai folded the blanket which Alix had been using to cover herself and then Alix stood up. 

She stretched and looked around the room. Only two competitors were left, her and young genius Rui. As expected, the best two were being saved for last. 

"Drink this." auntie Mo held a transparent bottle of milk up to Alix's mouth.

Alix chuckled and she took one big sip. 

"Eat." Auntie Mo practically shoved a lemon candy into Alix's mouth. 

Alix then bent and picked up her violin. Auntie Mo used the opportunity to tap her on the buttocks, giving her two light slaps for encouragement.

"Good luck my pretty baby." 

"You got this." grandpa Tai added more words of encouragement. 

Alix smiled and she slowly walked out of the room and out onto the stage. Her eyes immediately started moving, searching for the rest of her family and her husband.
