She adhered to the principle of making a good show.
Lin Shanchu immediately showed a look of disbelief. âYun Wu, you and Xia Jinmeng⦠you twoâ¦â
Although it was an act, Lin Shanchuâs tone was so sad and real that Yun Wu began to blame herself.
Yun Wu paused and turned to look at Xia Jinmeng. âWhat do we do next?â
Xia Jinmeng glanced downstairs and sneered. âPush her down the stairs.â
If Lin Shanchu was pushed down from here and survived the fall without breaking her leg, Xia Jinmeng would consider it a total loss.
Once the performance of âDeath of the Universeâ was ruined, Lin Shanchu would have to pack up and leave.
The first place could only belong to Xia Jinmeng!
Noticing that Yun Wu didnât move for a long time, Xia Jinmeng impatiently urged, âDo it!â
Lin Shanchu and Yun Wu looked at each other before the latter retreated to the side automatically.
âXia Jinmeng, you still havenât improved at all.â Lin Shanchuâs lips curved up slightly with disdain written all over her eyes. âYouâre even worse than Wen
Tongtong. â
At least Wen Tongtong kept a clear head and knew her own situation well.
Meanwhile, Xia Jinmeng was still using the same method that she had failed to use on Lin Shanchu before.
Xia Jinmeng gritted her teeth. âYou useless piece of trash! What right do you have to look down on me?â
In terms of strength, Lin Shanchu could not compare to her at all.
However, Lin Shanchu always looked down on her.
Just the sight of her made Xia Jinmeng hate her so much.
Xia Jinmeng walked toward Lin Shanchu aggressively with a cold and dark expression on her face.
Lin Shanchu was already ready for Xia Jinmengâs advances.
She dodged while raising her foot.
Thud!
Xia Jinmeng was kicked to the corner of the wall.
However, Lin Shanchu wasnât the one who kicked her.
She turned her head to look at Yun Wu.
Yun Wu stretched the leg that kicked Xia Jinmeng while explaining, âI practiced martial arts when I was young.â
Lin Shanchu silently retracted her foot. âOh.â
As expected, Yun Wu was supposed to become the female lead, right?
She was better than Lin Shanchu in every way.
Hell.
âYou twoâ¦â Only then did Xia Jinmeng realize that Yun Wu didnât fall out with Lin Shanchu at all.
Lin Shanchu then crouched down in front of Xia Jinmeng.
She had a smile on her face and looked no different from usual, but Xia Jinmeng was creeped out by her smile.
Xia Jinmeng was so frightened that her pupils shrank and her eyelashes trembled. âWhat⦠What are you doing?â
âDo you know what the difference is between you and Tang Qidai?â Lin
Shanchu gripped Xia Jinmengâs chin. Her overly gentle voice sounded a little
strange.
Under Xia Jinmengâs frightened gaze, moved closer to her.
âShe only told a small lie and got everything she wanted, whereas you have to take the risk of being discovered and push me down the stairs just to barely keep your first placeâ¦â
Lin Shanchu suddenly stopped.
That was because she could see another emotion in Xia Jinmengâs eyes other than fear. It was disgust.
Lin Shanchu tentatively stepped back.
The disgust in Xia Jinmengâs eyes faded a little.
She leaned forward.
Xia Jinmengâs eyes were filled with disgust again. She even looked as if she wanted to stay as far away from her as possible.
Last time, Xia Jinmeng seemed to have asked her if she didnât like menâ¦
Lin Shanchu was like a child who had discovered something new. She stared at Xia Jinmeng with interest.
âXia Jinmeng, youâre very pretty. Youâre my type.â
As Lin Shanchu spoke, she stretched out her hand and gently stroked Xia Jinmengâs face.
Yun Wuâs eyes widened. She was confused by the turn of things as well. Was this a scene that a one-year-and-220-month-old baby like her could watch?
Her older sisterâs sexual orientation seemed to be different from hers.
That was not the main point!
The main point was, why did her sister like Xia Jinmeng?
Yun Wu was clearly stronger than Xia Jinmeng, okay?
Lin Shanchuâs hand slid down Xia Jinmengâs cheek.
It streaked down her neck.
Then, it reached her collarbone.
Xia Jinmeng couldnât take it anymore. She screamed while crawling to the side so that she could get up and escape.
In her panic, she didnât see that the stairs were on the other side.
So, she fell straight down the stairs.
The screams echoed in the corridor.
âMy footâ¦â Xia Jinmeng tried to stand up, but her foot was in too much pain.
Just as she got up, she fell back down.
She subconsciously looked up and wanted to ask for help.
What came into view was Lin Shanchu, who was standing high above the stairs.
Lin Shanchu looked down at her.
Her beautiful eyes were rendered by a faint smile, making her as beautiful as a goddess, but she also resembled a devil dressed like an angel.
Once Lin Shanchu locked onto her targetâ¦
She would immediately take their life.
Xia Jinmeng, who was a few meters away from her, felt as if she was being strangled by an invisible chain. No matter how hard she tried, she couldnât make a sound.
âHow can there be such a stupid person?â Yun Wu walked over and looked at Xia Jinmeng in confusion.
She had been standing behind Lin Shanchu, so she did not see Lin Shanchuâs expression from the beginning to the end.
Although she was quite puzzled about Lin Shanchuâs behavior of touching Xia Jinmengâs face, she did not think much about it.
She only thought that Xia Jinmeng had fallen down by accident.
Lin Shanchu agreed with a serious face. âItâs true that sheâs a little dumb.â âLetâs go find the doctor.â Lin Shanchu turned around and walked out first.
When she opened the safety door and walked out, Lin Shanchu saw Ji Yuan walking over from not far away.
âBig Sister Lin!â The moment Ji Yuan saw her, he waved at her. âJi Yuan? Why hasnât he left yet?â Yun Wu caught up with Lin Shanchu.
A top celebrity like Ji Yuan had a lot of gigs.
Even if âMy Stageâ was Tianzhou Mediaâs own show, it was already good enough that he could spare half a day to show his face.
âMaybe heâs free for now,â Lin Shanchu said lightly.
Ji Yuan had already walked in front of the two of them.
âThis place is quite big. Itâs much better than the place we lived in during the talent show I was in. Back thenâ¦â He chatted with them like they were old friends.
âDid you guys hear something?â Ji Yuan suddenly paused.
Of course, Lin Shanchu heard it.
It was Xia Jinmengâs cry for help.
Yun Wu did not speak. Instead, she looked at Lin Shanchu in silence.
âI heard it. It seems to be coming from behind.â Lin Shanchu turned around and pushed open the safety door.
Ji Yuan and the girls sent Xia Jinmeng to the infirmary.
âYou sprained your foot. Fortunately, you didnât hurt your bone. Itâs just a soft tissue injury. Youâll recover after two to three weeks of rest.â
Xia Jinmeng got agitated the moment she heard the doctorâs words. âThereâs still a little over a week before the first public showdown! I canât rest â I still have to practice my dance!â
âStrenuous exercise may cause irreversible damage,â the doctor said with a serious expression.
Xia Jinmengâs face darkened.
âI heard that Jinmeng was injured.â
The director pushed the door open and walked in with the staff members.
Xia Jinmeng didnât perform well the previous two times, so she didnât manage to gain much popularity. However, her fans were very good at hyping her up, so she was still on the production crewâs main focus list.
The thought of being unable to perform onstage agitated Xia Jinmeng even more.
She shouted at the director. âDirector, it was Lin Shanchu who pushed me! She called me to a place without surveillance cameras and pushed me down the stairs on purpose!â
The ward instantly fell silent.
Everyone looked at each other. No one dared to speak..
