Chapter 38
Lin Shanchu thought for a moment. “Singing.”
She had actually learned to dance for a period of time when she was young.
However, she definitely couldn’t dance in her current condition.
Singing was relatively simple in comparison.
“Do you want to form a group and perform with me?” Yun Wu spoke very quickly. If it was not for the silence in the room, Lin Shanchu might not have heard what she said.
Lin Shanchu asked, “What performance are you doing, then?”
“Dancing,” said Yun Wu in a serious tone as she sat up.
Lin Shanchu also sat on her own bed while facing Yun Wu. “I can’t dance at all. What if I play dead instead?”
“You might as well take on the role of a vengeful ghost,” Yun Wu choked out.
Lin Shanchu was speechless.
Wow. She would be acting as a vengeful ghost instead of a corpse.
The two of them looked at each other in silence.
Lin Shanchu’s eyes were as calm as water. Yun Wu could feel chills down her spine.
Yun Wu could not help but straighten her back as if she was an elementary school student meeting face-to-face with the disciplinary teacher. “Have you heard of ‘Vengeful Ghost’? I composed a dance using this song. Do you want to try it out?”
‘Vengeful Ghost’ was the song that the genius composer, Bai Yu, made his debut with.
This song was about a person who had gone through so much suffering in his life. Having lost all hope, he finally fell into the deep abyss and became a vengeful ghost.
When this song was first released, it swept through the charts of various major music platforms.
Countless people made covers out of it.
Even now, it was still on the trending music list.
Lin Shanchu asked, “The assessment stage is very important. Aren’t you afraid that I’ll mess it up?”
“I believe you won’t mess it up.” Yun Wu raised her chin.
No one had ever trusted Lin Shanchu like this before.
Her heart, which was like still water, rippled slightly.
Lin Shanchu clenched her fingers and said firmly, “”Alright. I’ll give it a go.”
…
The production crew acted very quickly.
That night, they found out the truth behind the heart list.
They even posted an announcement on Weibo.
My Stage: [Regarding the incident where the heart list of the ‘My Stage’ members who gathered for the first time got hijacked by outsiders, we have concluded our investigations and found out the truth. Also, we’ve informed the police…]
Everyone thought that this matter was over.
Some time past midnight, a topic named #Lin Shanchu is a big bully was pushed to the trending list.
Under the topic, a large number of marketing accounts were dispatched.
[According to an insider, the cause of the heart list’s ranking incident was because Lin Shanchu forced a member who had already signed the contract with the production crew to quit in order to participate in the show. This member’s diehard fan couldn’t take it lying down, so they decided to make Yun Wu the winner of the heart list…]
When Lin Shanchu got up, this topic had already reached the third place on the entertainment list.
The discussion rate was very high.
The marketing accounts made it sound like it was real, so a large number of netizens had already found Lin Shanchu’s Weibo page just to scold her.
[Did you come to this show to prove that you have power and influence?]
[Ha! It’s amazing to have a powerful and influencial fiancé! She can easily destroy other people’s dreams!]
[Return @Qiao Jiaxi’s dream to her!]
[Get the hell out of the production crew, Ugly Lin!]
[I almost became your fan when I saw you and Lu Shiyuan on the trending list yesterday. I didn’t expect you to be this kind of person!]
Although the marketing accounts didn’t explicitly say who the victim was, the netizens guessed that the so-called member who was forced to withdraw was Qiao Jiaxi.
Lin Shanchu clicked into Qiao Jiaxi’s Weibo page.
She was an idol with millions of fans.
Lin Shanchu clicked on her picture, squinted her eyes slightly, and stared at it for a moment. Then, the corners of her lips curled up.
What a coincidence.
That was another acquaintance of hers.
She was Tang Qidai’s cousin.
In the original novel, Qiao Jiaxi tried her best to curry favor with Tang Qidai in order to sign into the Lu Corporation. She secretly seized the opportunity to help Tang Qidai deal with Lin Shanchu.
However, Tang Qidai didn’t like Qiao Jiaxi at all. She had no intention of letting her sign into the Lu Corporation.
Since Qiao Jiaxi had evil intentions, naturally she had a bad ending.
“You’re on the trending list again!”
Yun Wu came out of the bathroom with her phone.
“Lin Shanchu, how many enemies do you have?”
Lin Shanchu thought about it seriously for a moment. “Perhaps a few.”
Compared to Lu Shiyuan and Tang Qidai, Qiao Jiaxi’s level was nothing.
“You really don’t care at all?” Yun Wu asked after seeing her calm expression.
“I’ll go make a call.” Lin Shanchu did not answer the question.
She entered the bathroom, closed the door, and called Nan Mu.
As soon as the call was connected, Nan Mu spoke up before she could say anything. “I’ve seen the trending list. Don’t worry, I’ve already gotten someone to deal with it.”
Nan Mu used to be a manager, so he was very good at dealing with this kind of matter.
“Thank you.” Lin Shanchu was naturally at ease.
“Don’t be so polite.” Nan Mu laughed.
…
When Lin Shanchu and Yun Wu went to have breakfast, people looked at her strangely along the way.
The breakfast was a buffet.
Yun Wu loaded her plate full with dishes.
She ate while looking at her phone.
“Qiao Jiaxi made a post on Weibo as well.” She handed her phone to Lin Shanchu.
Lin Shanchu glanced at the contents of the Weibo.
Qiao Jiaxi: [I’ll keep marching forward bravely. All of my efforts won’t be in vain.]
This Weibo post made the passers-by and fans feel even more distressed.
[Oh my god, you’re so strong.]
[My heart aches for you. Sadly, us common folk can never fight back against the capitalists.]
[I really hate Lin Shanchu.]
[@Lin Shanchu, can you even sleep at night? Are you not afraid of being struck by lightning when you’re walking outside?]
Lin Shanchu remembered it very clearly.
When she said that she wanted to participate in ‘My Stage’, Nan Mu had said that someone had voluntarily left the production crew and that they were short of people.
Did they really think that the production crew was useless?
The one who dared to pull off stunts like this just to ride on the popularity would only get swallowed up by the repercussions.
Lin Shanchu retracted her gaze, indicating that she had finished reading.
Seeing that she didn’t even blink, Yun Wu asked in confusio. “Are you even human?”
“What?” Why did she suddenly claim that Lin Shanchu wasn’t a human?
“This Qiao Jiaxi girl didn’t even explain and even posted this kind of misleading Weibo post. It’s obvious that she’s trying to ride on the popularity and get people to scold you at the same time! Are you not angry?”
Lin Shanchu shook her head.
Yun Wu was so angry that she stopped eating with a frown.
She moved closer to Lin Shanchu and said in a low voice, “Do you want me to help you find someone to expose Qiao Jiaxi’s dark history?”
Lin Shanchu’s expression finally had a slight change, “You know Qiao Jiaxi?”
“Yeah.” Yun Wu nodded. “We met when we were abroad. At that time, she was a trainee there. She came back because she couldn’t survive abroad.”
“Where are you from?” Lin Shanchu was also a little curious about Yun Wu’s background.
“I came from Capital City,” Yun Wu replied.
“Then why did you come to Xu City?” Lin Shanchu asked again.
Capital City was as good as Xu City.
Yun Wu thought about it seriously and gave an answer that Lin Shanchu was very puzzled about. “Well, it’s very lively here. There are a lot of people here too.”
Lin Shanchu was confused.
After breakfast, the two of them went to the practice room.
In the practice room, many members had gathered together to look at their phones. It was unknown what they were looking at.
As they walked closer, Lin Shanchu vaguely heard her name being mentioned alongside Qiao Jiaxi.
