âDonât thank me yet. Letâs see how Iâll deal with you when we get home.â Qi Shenbai came back to his senses and berated her.
âHuh?â Suddenly, Xu Jiaojiao felt that this flower was not that important anymore.
âHa! You guys lost, right?â Su Luo was extremely excited, jumping to her feet below the stage. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âDonât get carried away. We havenât lost yet!â Lu Huan rolled her eyes at Su Luo and said fiercely.
âAer you sure about that? You just donât want to crawl like a dog, do you?â Su Luo jeered back.
âThe voting isnât done yet! We havenât decided on a winner.â Lu Huan puffed out her chest.
âWho else is there?â Su Luo looked around and saw Lu Huan staring at a dark corner.
âMy brother,â Lu Huan said proudly.
Lu Zhuo did not know that Xu Jiaojiao and Bai Mengyao would come today, nor did he know that they would compete in a dance competition. In Lu Zhuoâs eyes, Xu Jiaojiao was just a child who did not know anything.
However, after watching her dance, he seemed to be infected by her energy. Xu Jiaojiaoâs dance was like the sun shining into his heart.
He even blamed himself for not realizing all of Xu Jiaojiaoâs merits in the past.
Lu Zhuo stood up and walked to the bottom of the stage. Lu Huan immediately stuffed a gardenia flower into her brotherâs hands. âBrother, quickly! Give the flower to Sis Mengyao!â
When Xu Jiaojiao saw Lu Zhuo, her heart sank. She thought that she would not be able to defeat Bai Mengyao today, let alone see Lu Huan bark like a dog.
However, it did not matter. A draw was already a good result.
When Bai Mengyao saw Lu Zhuo walk onto the stage, the corners of her lips curled into a smile. Then, Lu Zhuo walked up to her. Just as she was about to reach out to take the flower, Lu Zhuo just smiled at her and walked up to Xu Jiaojiao instead.
âWhy didnât I notice before that you could dance so beautifully?â Lu Zhuo said as he handed the flower to Xu Jiaojiao. âHere, this is for you. 1 hope to see you bloom on stage again in the future.â
Xu Jiaojiao rolled her eyes at him inwardly. There were plenty of things he did not know about her! Still, she took the gardenia from Lu Zhuoâs hand as if she was afraid that he would go back on his word.
âSince youâve given it to me, you canât take it back,â Xu Jiaojiao quickly said.
âI wonât. Itâs for you and you alone,â Lu Zhuo said hastily.
Bai Mengyao, who was watching from the side, could not help but tear up at that. She had never expected Lu Zhuo to make such a choice.
Bai Mengyao finally could not take it anymore when she saw how affectionate Lu Zhuo was toward Xu Jiaojiao. She jumped off the stage with tears in her eyes and ran outside.
âSis Mengyao!â Seeing Bai Mengyao leave, Lu Huan wanted to chase after her, but Su Luo stopped her.
âDonât go yet. You lost, so itâs time for your punishment!â Su Luo stretched out her arm to block Su Luoâs path.
âGet out of my way.â
âNo way!â
âBrother, look at what youâve done! Youâve angered Sis Mengyao so much that she ran away, and you even got me in trouble!â Lu Huan would never have thought that her brother would vote for Xu Jiaojiao.
Right now, she was in a dilemma. She could only pin the blame on him.
âYoung lady, you have to admit defeat. We all saw you just now. The other girl didnât want to compete, but you insisted. Now that youâve lost, shouldnât you follow through?â
âThatâs right! Donât bully her just because sheâs young. If you lose, you have to do the punishment.â
âWhatâs the punishment again?â
âShe has to bark and crawl like a dog! I heard her clearly just now.â
When the onlookers saw that Lu Huan was about to go back on his word, they began to lose their composure.
âLu Huan, donât even think about escaping now.â Su Luo was smug.
âMiss Lu, we came to the bar to have some fun. The audience wants you to fulfill your word. Of course, if you refuse, I have ways to make you obey.â
Lin Feng drawled from where he stood not far away.
The customers came to the bar for a good time, and they definitely would not accept her shameless refusal. Even if it was just for the customersâ sake, Lin Feng could not let Lu Huan leave just like that.
After Lin Feng finished speaking, a few security guards appeared behind him.
Lu Huan could hear the hidden meaning in his words. Looking at the security guards behind him, she understood that if she did not go on stage and bark like a dog, those security guards would drag her away. It would be even more embarrassing if they pressed her head down and forced her to bark.
âBrotherâ¦â All she could do was beg her brother to help her.
Unexpectedly, Lu Zhuo turned his head to the side and stopped looking at her.
Previously, when Lu Huan had slandered Xu Jiaojiao and Mr. Sun, Lu Zhuo had already felt that she had gone overboard. This time, he truly did not want to help her anymore.
Seeing that her brother was ignoring her, Lu Huan had no choice but to go on stage.
She got on all fours and barked like a dog. âWoof, woof, woofâ¦â
Xu Jiaojiao quickly stepped out of the spotlight so that Lu Huan could perform to her heartâs content..
