Rebirth Of The Villainess: Young Master Lu's Wicked Wife

Chapter 452 Stark Contrasts (2)

The crowd remained silent once the two women stopped dancing. It was only when they heard someone clapping amongst the crowd did they notice that the little competition between two sisters was now over. They were wearing inexplicable expressions on their faces as they looked at the two beautiful women on stage.

One was known for her gentle beauty, while the other woman was still a mystery. Aside from shock and surprise, some of them felt starstruck and developed a new level of respect towards Su Xiaofei, Ye Mingyu being forgotten along the way.

"Wow. What a performance, President Su, Miss Ye." Song Yiran stepped forward. "Since this is a little game of yours, allow me to preside over the tally of the votes from everyone, okay?" He then lifted a hand to get the waiters' attention. "Everyone's drinks are on me tonight. Just make sure everyone here casts a vote to see who won between these beautiful ladies."

It was followed with a loud cheering from the crowd. Not only did they witness such a rare performance by the rising star, Ye Mingyu, but they were also able to see the elusive president of Bluemedia tonight.

The wait staff in the club moved at once, preparing the stage and a special box where the guests could drop their votes and receive a special golden pass that would allow them to waive their bills on their drinks just as Song Yiran said.

Su Xiaofei shot her husband's friend a curious look, noticing that his amused smiles were back. Was he trying to help her again? She wondered.

Zhang Ling came to her with a bottle of water and some clean towels to wipe her sweat. Su Xiaofei thanked her before twisting the cap of the water bottle and drinking half of its content.

"Miss, you were amazing! I didn't know you could dance like that!" Her assistant looked at her with admiration.

Su Xiaofei only hummed and didn't answer Zhang Ling. How was she supposed to explain that she knew the steps and the moves by heart because she had practiced the same piece nonstop for a whole two months because she didn't have the same artistic talents as Ye Mingyu?

How many times did she fall, get bruised and get a sprain because of her eagerness to practice so she wouldn't fall behind Ye Mingyu on stage?

The only reason why she was able to win against Ye Mingyu today was because of her efforts in her previous life. Even if her body was lacking the practice it needed, her mind was eager to perform the task and execute it the way she remembered it.

She was also lucky that Ye Mingyu had neglected her skills and failed to meet everyone's expectations. Looking at Ye Mingyu's expression now, Su Xiaofei thought that she was used to being in Ye Mingyu's shoes, criticized by everyone.

Ye Mingyu looked awful with her face flushed from embarrassment as if someone had just slapped her right in the face. She didn't dare to say a word and allowed everyone to cast their votes on the stage, one by one.

People weren't blind to see the difference between her and Su Xiaofei, and if Su Xiaofei who wasn't even an actor like her could beat her so easily, this meant that she would also be pale in comparison to other actors like Xiao Rufeng. The more she thought about it, the more Ye Mingyu regretted falling into Su Xiaofei's scheme.

"I would have never thought I would be lucky enough to witness such a performance tonight. Look, she probably doesn't even realize that she and Ye Mingyu made news again." Someone commented near Ye Mingyu.

"To think that the head of an entertainment company would be as beautiful and talented as her, their talents must feel awkward being in her presence. She obviously showed Ye Mingyu what it means to be a pro." Her companion replied.

"Yep. At first, I thought that Ye Mingyu was really good, but when she started dancing along with Miss Su, the differences between them are outstanding. Goodness! I think I wouldn't have the face to show in public if I were her!"

As she continued to listen to the praises others had for Su Xiaofei, Ye Mingyu felt like someone had poured a bucket of ice cold water on her entirety as bitterness filled her heart. Their words were like sharp needles being pierced through her heart.

Not being able to tolerate it anymore, she ran and pushed through the crowd, making a beeline towards the washroom, ignoring how people were throwing looks of ridicule towards her. Thankfully, no one was using the washroom at the moment. She closed the door behind her and faced the wide mirror at the counter, allowing her mask to slip from her face.

If anyone could see her at the moment, they would be taken aback at how different this Ye Mingyu was from the one usually seen in public. How could she be the same gentle mannered beautiful woman everyone knew her to be? Her eyes were red from rage, fists clenched so hard that her nails left small marks on her palm as she kept cursing Su Xiaofei in her heart.

Damn Su Xiaofei for ruining her night! Damn everyone for looking at her with ridicule. The same ones she used to receive from people from her previous life, who mocked her and her mother for being as poor as a rat.

Suddenly the door opened, much to her shock. She turned to see who it was, only to see Su Xiaofei leaning against the doorframe, a wicked smile on her lips. She shivered, knowing that Su Xiaofei had come here to collect her prize.

"H-how did you get inside?!" She asked with wide eyes. Ye Mingyu was sure to lock the door to stop anyone from seeing her in the poor state she was currently in.

Su Xiaofei chuckled.

"That's easy. Nothing a simple hair pin can't do."
