Pill Maker Bullies The Boss

English Compitition

Time went by swiftly. Before long, it was time for Lisa’s English oral competition.

The education channel employees had come to shoot the entire competition. They wanted to air a special about it.

An exhibition hall on the second floor of the Sports Center was rented for the competition. For the sake of creating the right atmosphere, the television station even invited an audience to sit in the spectator seats beneath the stage.

Lisa had participated in it purely for the $100,000 scholarship. She had her earphones plugged in during the entire journey.

A fellow participant quietly went up to her and asked her when she noticed the earphones. “Are you listening to an English recording?”

Lisa looked at the female student. Just as Lisa was about to reply, the girl said, “Mind if I have a listen?”

Lisa paused. Then she removed her earphones and graciously handed them to the girl.

However, the girl could only hear some pop music when she placed them in her ears. She was dumbstruck. She stared at Lisa and remained in a daze for sometime.

Since the competition was about to commence, everyone was busy memorizing their script. On the other hand, Lisa was listening to pop music… Was this the right time to listen to songs, even if Lisa was listening to the girl’s idol?

“What do you think? Was it good? I think their leader’s voice sounds great.” Lisa pulled the album’s cover art out on her phone, and pointed at the man on it. “He also looks handsome.”

The female student was from another class. She was at a loss whether to laugh or cry as she looked at Lisa.

Word had it that Lisa from the Experimental class was aloof. However, after Lisa recommended the song and spoke about her idol, she seemed to be no different from an average fangirl.

Lisa was so down to earth!

The girl also stopped looking at her English script and started talking about music with Lisa.

The English teacher came back after drawing lots for her students and almost passed out when she heard what they were discussing. She quickly split them apart and counselled them for a few minutes before handing out everyone’s number tags.

Almost 50 people had signed up for the contest, and the teachers drew lots to determine their order of appearance.

Lisa was the 21st contestant, right in the middle.

It was Lisa’s turn an hour later.

The moment she came on stage, the spotlights beamed at her, making her flawless complexion look even more exquisite. Her calm and collected aura seemed to be completely innate.

Lisa suddenly noticed two suspicious looking characters in the last row when she looked at the audience from the stage. Her lips twitched uncontrollably.

She veered her eyes before greeting the teachers unhurriedly. Before long, she started speaking in fluent English.

Lisa narrated a passage from a rather famous poetry collection. In comparison to the other students, she had not brought any notes along.

She was unperturbed and confident when she faced the audience and the judges. Also, her pronunciation was impeccable. Needless to say, of all the contestants, she performed the best.

In all probability, she was bound to be the champion.

After her three-minute speech, the audience applauded warmly. Lisa took out her phone the moment she went backstage.

Lisa quickly turned on WeChat and tapped on the nickname, ‘Madam Song’, and sent her mother a text message: [Mom, why are both of you here?]

The two sneaky characters whom Lisa spotted earlier were none other than her hilarious parents, Song Chaerin and Huo Jiyong.
