Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Xia Jinmeng lost to Lin Shanchu in the afternoon.
When she returned to the training room at night, she was afraid that Lin Shanchu would ask her for another one-to-one lesson again, so she dragged her groupmates to practice dance together.
She felt that Lin Shanchu would definitely provoke her on purpose and make her lose her composure in front of the camera.
Xia Jinmeng decided not to provoke Lin Shanchu for the time being before she could think of a plan to deal with her.
In the end, Lin Shanchu didn’t even talk to her after she returned to the training room.
She stood at the side and practiced seriously.
If she came across a difficult part, she would humbly ask her groupmates for advice.
At the end of the training, Xia Jinmeng finally got the chance to speak to Lin Shanchu alone.
“Did you do it on purpose?”
Lin Shanchu brushed her sweaty hair away. “What do you mean?”
“When you were training just now, you deliberately asked the other groupmates what you didn’t know instead of asking me. You wanted others to think that I didn’t teach well, right?”
Xia Jinmeng was already certain that Lin Shanchu was targeting her.
“Huh?”
Was this how a normal person would think?
Oh, the setting of the sadistic world was very abnormal.
Lin Shanchu understood everything at once.
She was deeply inspired too.
“I won’t ask you to teach me how to dance until the end of the public showdown.”
If Xia Jinmeng insisted on thinking this way, Lin Shanchu could only grant her wish.
“You…” Xia Jinmeng was furious. She sneered before turning to leave.
Before going to bed, Lin Shanchu took out her spare phone in the bathroom. Lu Shiyuan’s name was at the top of the entertainment rankings:
#Lu Shiyuan’s first appearance after the scandal
Lu Shiyuan brought Tang Qidai to the party.
The reporter took a close-up of the two of them. In the picture, the two of them were dressed up and appeared intimate.
Lin Shanchu bit her lip hard and stared at the two people in the photo.
A scumbag like him was actually protected by the male lead’s plot armor.
He had clearly done all kinds of evil things, yet he was still unscathed.
She wanted to see how long the male lead ‘s plot armor could protect this piece of trash!
No human life should be like this.
Lu Shiyuan shouldn’t have.
She shouldn’t have either.
“Shanshan, are you done?”
Yun Wu’s voice came from outside the door. Her tone was very urgent. Lin Shanchu snapped back to reality and replied, “Yes.”
She turned off her phone and put it away before getting up to open the door.
“You’re finally out.” Yun Wu clutched her stomach and wanted to run inside.
After running two steps, she turned her head and looked at Lin Shanchu. “Why is the corner of your mouth wounded?”
Lin Shanchu reached out to touch the corner of her mouth.
“There’s blood.” Yun Wu pointed at the spot.
Lin Shanchu touched the wound and hissed softly. “I accidentally knocked against something just now.”
Actually, when she was looking at her phone, she injured the corner of her mouth unconsciously.
“Be careful,” said Yun Wu.
“Hurry up and go to the toilet.” Lin Shanchu closed the door behind him.
She lay on the bed and closed her eyes, preparing to sleep.
However, she couldn’t help but think about what had happened in the past few days.
Soon, her roommates went to bed.
The lights went out.
The dormitory fell silent.
Lin Shanchu opened her eyes in the darkness.
She couldn’t sleep.
When she closed her eyes, she would remember that the evidence had been erased and that Lu Shiyuan was still alive and well.
The next day.
Yun Wu woke up and found that Lin Shanchu’s bed was empty. The rest of the roommates also woke up at this time.
“Did Lin Shanchu wake up so early?”
“No way. It’s only past six o’clock. Why did she wake up earlier after coming back from her trip?”
“I can’t catch up to Lin Shanchu’s lifestyle in this lifetime.”
Yun Wu did not speak, but her expression was a little puzzled.
She had told Lin Shanchu to wake her up last night.
Why did she leave without waking Yun Wu up?
At this moment, the dormitory door was pushed open from the outside.
Everyone turned around and saw Lin Shanchu standing at the door. Lin Shanchu was wearing a training uniform. She walked in while looking very sweaty.
“What are you doing so early?” asked his roommate.”
“I woke up early and couldn’t sleep, so I went to the training room.” Lin Shanchu explained concisely and walked toward Yun Wu.
“I thought you weren’t up yet and was going to come back to wake you up.”
Yun Wu threw the towel on her shoulder. “I just woke up too. Did you practice your dance?”
“Yes.” Lin Shanchu also took her towel.
Yun Wu sized up Lin Shanchu for a moment before changing the topic. “I wonder what the cafeteria is having this morning.”
“Whole wheat steamed buns.”
“How do you know?”
“Yesterday at dinner, I saw the serving lady rolling the dough.”
There were indeed whole wheat steamed buns for breakfast.
Yun Wu ate two steamed buns, three eggs, and a carton of milk in one go.
When they returned to the training room, Yun Wu looked at Lin Shanchu with resentment. “Why didn’t you choose my group?”
The dance was so simple that she learned it in no time.
She was just teaching her groupmates every day at training.
It was a little boring.
If she was paired with Lin Shanchu, it wouldn’t be so boring.
“Maybe next time.”
“Don’t you think you’re being a little absent-minded here?”
Lin Shanchu thought for a moment, then leaned closer to Yun Wu’s ear and whispered, “I went to Xia Jinmeng’s group because I have something important to do.”
“What business?”
Yun Wu seemed to have thought of something. Excitement and a hint of madness filled her eyes.
She imitated Lin Shanchu by asking in a low voice, “You want to teach Xia Jinmeng a lesson? How are you planning to do that?”
Lin Shanchu fell into a short silence.
Yun Wu was a pampered heiress from a wealthy family who was cold and arrogant on the surface, but she was also the type who had a wild imagination.
Even though Yun Wu’s guess was wrong, she still got part of the reason right.
Lin Shanchu didn’t know how to explain this to Yun Wu. She planned to use Xia
Jinmeng’s jealousy of Tang Qidai to convince her into hooking up with Lu Shiyuan. Then, she could take the opportunity to obtain evidence of Lu Shiyuan’s extramarital affair and cancel the engagement.
The identity of Lu Shiyuan’s fiancée was too disgusting to her.
However, she didn’t want to tell Yun Wu about such underhanded methods.
Lin Shanchu had no friends before.
Yun Wu was a special existence to her.
Lin Shanchu didn’t say anything, so Yun Wu thought that Lin Shanchu didn’t want to tell her.
The latter did not mind.
Everyone had their own secrets.
She could understand.
Yun Wu took the initiative to change the topic. “But if you end up in a bad situation, you can always come to me for help. My brothers are the best at cleaning up messes.”
Lin Shanchu felt a little touched as she smiled gently. “Didn’t you say that your brothers are useless other than being rich and handsome?”
Yun Wu choked.
“Do your brothers know that you’ve ruined their reputation?” Lin Shanchu laughed.
Yun Wu seemed to have thought of something. Her expression instantly became serious. “If you don’t say it, no one will know.”
Lin Shanchu felt that Yun Wu sounded a little strange.
She didn’t know Yun Wu’s brothers, so who was she going to tell? At this moment, Xia Jinmeng’s voice came from not far away.
“Lin Shanchu, hurry up! You’re the only one left!”
