She went on to complete two master's degrees at the University of Music and Theatre "Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy" in Leipzig. one in Piano Performance under Professor Dietmar Nawroth, and the other in Collaborative Piano (Liedgestaltung) under Professor Alexander Schmalcz. Following her master's studies, she was accepted into the Meisterklasse (doctorate program) at the Leipzig University of Music and Theatre, where she also served as an assistant teacher, and later became a faculty member.

From an early age, CHEN performed regularly at prominent venues such as the National Centre for the Performing Arts, the Beijing Concert Hall, and the Zhongshan Music Hall under Professor Huang's guidance. At thirteen years old, her performance of Haydn's Piano Concerto in D major at Kunming Hall garnered high praise. She also participated in the recording of the CD Selected Piano Pieces of Jiang Dingxian, produced by China Record Group Co., Ltd., in honor of the composer's centenary.

In 2019, CHEN won first prize at the Chopin Avenue International Piano Competition and was awarded the Best Chopin Performance Award by the Polish Chopin Society.

Chen's performances have been widely praised by leading critics. Swiss music critic Jan Kammann wrote in the Liechtensteiner Vaterland newspaper that "the emotional intensity of her performance made one forget reality," following her concert at the TAK National Theatre. The late legendary pianist Paul Badura-Skoda hailed her as a "promising young pianist." Gerald Fauth, President of the Leipzig University of Music and Theatre, praised her interpretation of Beethoven's Piano Concerto No. 5 at her entrance recital as "exquisitely nuanced and full of color." The Herdecke Daily newspaper described her playing as "rich in color and technically outstanding; her touch was uniquely clean and bright."

In 2022, CHEN signed with the German Stähling Agency, participated in a concert series organized by the Dr. Carl Dörken Foundation, and was awarded a scholarship by the Yehudi Menuhin Foundation (LMN). The same year, she was invited to perform Saint-Saëns' Carnival of the Animals with the Leipzig Philharmonic Orchestra under the baton of Michael Köhler.
