Chapter 57 - 57: Do I Look That Scary?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Lin Shanchu’s footsteps were light, so the girl did not notice her approach.

“Who are you looking for?”

“Ah!”

When she heard a voice speaking to her all of a sudden, the girl who was looking into the dormitory was shocked and turned her head in a panic.

Lin Shanchu saw her face clearly.

“Xia Jinmeng?”

Noticing that Lin Shanchu was the one talking to her, Xia Jinmeng retorted angrily, “Why didn’t you make any sounds when you walked? Are you trying to give me a heart attack?”

Xia Jinmeng never had a direct conflict with Lin Shanchu.

However, Lin Shanchu knew that Xia Jinmeng had always disliked her.

Hence, it was normal for Xia Jinmeng to talk to her in this manner.

Lin Shanchu looked into the dormitory and saw no one there.

Therefore, Xia Jinmeng couldn’t be here to look for someone.

Lin Shanchu raised an eyebrow as she looked at Xia Jinmeng coldly. “What are you doing here?”

“Can’t I just pass by and take a look?” Xia Jinmeng snorted coldly.

The cameras in the dormitory were usually turned on in the morning, so Xia Jinmeng didn’t have to worry about having her bad attitude recorded by the cameras at that hour.

Lin Shanchu noticed that Xia Jinmeng did not look at her when she spoke.

It was clearly a sign of guilt.

Xia Jinmeng and Tang Qidai were childhood friends.

Tang Qidai had relied on Lu Shiyuan’s support all these years to do whatever she wanted in the industry. At the same time, she also made many friends.

There were so many staff members in the production crew, so it was possible that one of them was affiliated with Tang Qidai.

It was easy to get someone to pass some information to Xia Jinmeng and do some small tricks.

Lin Shanchu scanned Xia Jinmeng’s entire body without a word. Then, she reached out and pushed Xia Jinmeng into the dormitory.

“What’s there to see at the entrance? You can just go in and take a look.”

“What are you pushing me for?”

Xia Jinmeng’s voice became slightly sharp because of her nervousness.

Lin Shanchu didn’t even look at her as she turned to close the door.

Xia Jinmeng inexplicably felt that Lin Shanchu was behaving a little weirdly at this time.

Lin Shanchu’s face didn’t have any sinister expression. In fact, she wasn’t even showing any emotions. However, Xia Jinmeng felt an inexplicable sense of uneasiness in her heart.

“What… What are you doing?”

Xia Jinmeng heard the sound of the door closing.

Bam!

Xia Jinmeng couldn’t help but shiver the moment she heard the door close.

“I want to talk to you.” Lin Shanchu turned around slowly and smiled at Xia Jinmeng.

She was like a gentle and harmless cat.

However, Xia Jinmeng always had a feeling that Lin Shanchu would extend her sharp claws and bite her anytime.

Lin Shanchu slowly walked toward her.

Xia Jinmeng felt an invisible pressure attacking her.

She couldn’t help but take a few steps back.

Thud!

She had already retreated to the wall, so she ended up bumping into it.

At this moment.

There was a knock on the door.

Bam! Bam! Bam! “Is there anyone inside? Open the door!” It was Yun Wu’s voice.

Lin Shanchu lowered her eyes and sighed softly.

When she looked up at Xia Jinmeng again, her eyes were full of regret. “Let’s talk next time.”

Lin Shanchu turned around and opened the door. She smiled at Yun Wu. “You’re back.”

“Before I came back, I specifically went to Class A to look for you. Ning Yunxi said you’ve already returned to the dorm.” There were too many people in Class A, so Yun Wu decided to head to Class F just so she could teach everyone the dance.

“I thought you’d return late, so I didn’t tell you.” Lin Shanchu turned sideways to let Yun Wu into the dorm.

“I’m getting tired, so I wanted to rest early… Why is she here?”

Yun Wu turned around and saw Xia Jinmeng, who was standing stiffly against the wall.

“She seemed to be curious about our dormitory, so I invited her in for a chat. It was only after we chatted that we found out that we were schoolmates back in high school,” Lin Shanchu glanced at Xia Jinmeng while explaining calmly.

She didn’t lie to Yun Wu.

She was Tang Qidai’s classmate in high school.

Back then, Tang Qidai had two close friends who hung out with her all the time.

However, it had been too long, not to mention there was no need for Lin Shanchu to remember this plot point, so she didn’t remember that she and Xia Jinmeng used to be schoolmates.

“That’s quite a coincidence.” Yunwu’s eyes swept back and forth between Xia Jinmeng and Lin Shanchu while looking slightly surprised.

When Xia Jinmeng heard Lin Shanchu mention the word “schoolmates”, her face turned even uglier.

She didn’t say a word. Instead, she left in a hurry while keeping her head low.

She walked very quickly as if she was afraid that Lin Shanchu would catch up with her.

Yun Wu touched her face while looking very confused. “Why did she run away quickly? Do I look that scary to her?”

Lin Shanchu glanced at the spot where Xia Jinmeng had left.

“Maybe she’s in a hurry to go back and rest.”

“Oh.”

No longer suspecting anything, Yun Wu turned to grab her toiletries. “Yun Wu.” Lin Shanchu stood at the side and looked at her.

“Hmm?”

“I’ve forgotten to ask you before, but how did you know my high school exam results?”

“I looked it up on the internet.”

Yun Wu seemed to be trying to increase the credibility of her words. “Do you remember the first week when our phones weren’t confiscated yet?”

“Yes.” It sounded very reasonable.

But …

The information on Lin Shanchu on the internet didn’t include her high school exam results.

That meant…

Yun Wu had looked up her information through other channels.

As usual, there were people who received promotions and demotions during the theme song assessment for the ones in the two-day class.

Soon, it was the third day.

The last batch of students would be tested for their theme song.

Ning Yunxi’s assessment was also today.

As she was afraid, she was the last to go on stage.

“A good day to the instructors and everyone else. I’m Ning Yunxi, a student from Class F.”

After she finished speaking, she turned her head to look in Lin Shanchu’s direction.

Lin Shanchu tilted her head slightly before mouthing silently, “If you don’t want to go home and raise the pigs, then dance properly.”

Ning Yunxi shuddered and immediately turned back to focus on her performance.

The comments were laughing at the interactions.

[Haha! She turned back to look at Lin Shanchu as she spoke!]

[I saw that! Lin Shanchu said, “If you don’t want to go home and raise the pigs, then dance properly.”]

[Ning Yunxi: “I can feel my fear of Ms. Lin taking over me.”] [Lin Shanchu: “Warning! You might have to raise pigs again!”]

[Oh my god, I’m totally loving both of them!]

[The lilies of my hometown are definitely blooming all over the mountain and the field!]

Ning Yunxi didn’t let Lin Shanchu, who spent all night teaching her, down.

She finished the theme song performance perfectly.

“Ning Yunxi, you must have put in a lot of effort these days so that you don’t have to go home and feed the pigs.” Xu An had a deep impression of Ning Yunxi.

“I was able to dance to the theme song perfectly thanks to Big Sister Lin Shanchu’s efforts,” Ning Yunxi explained.

Qin Shuya commented, “I heard that Lin Shanchu was supposed to go to bed at eight o’clock in the evening. She stayed up all night just to practice with you, didn’t she?”

As she spoke, Qin Shuya looked at the member seating area.

The camera also accurately cut to Lin Shanchu.

She was in the middle of yawning.

She had stayed up a little too long with Ning Yunxi last night.

So, she was a little sleepy at the moment.

She didn’t pay attention to what the instructor said.

When the camera suddenly cut to her, she was a little stunned.

She was yawning halfway when she froze on the spot.

When the other members saw this, they all laughed.

Huo Xunzhou, who was sitting next to the instructors, also put his hand to his lips to hide his smile..
