She had to speak well of him in front of everyone.
Shen Lin did not know that saying that gained her three haters: the three contestants from the competition, Li Chen, Luo Jingshu and Xie Xiaomei.
Xie Xiaomei said, “Li Chen, others are praising her for being the deserved champion. Seems like your champion title isn’t very stable huh?”
Li Chen had a strong build, and he was very stable. He smiled politely and did not comment further. Yun An said, “Even if it’s not always going to be yours, it definitely won’t be hers.”
Xie Xiaomei raised her eyebrows and said, “True.”
Being around them, Shen Qianshu naturally heard how the reporters complimented them for raising a beautiful child. She felt a prick in her heart, but it was no longer as painful as it was from years ago. She would be better off dead. Her life was in total darkness. After having Tong Hua, she felt like she had a reason to live for.
Lin Xiaojuan held Shen Qianshu’s hand tightly.
Since they were in seventh grade, Shen Qianshu had been bullying Lin Xiaojuan. She made her write her assignments and pass her answers during tests. Lin Xiaojuan had always been her little servant, a follower who did not dare to offend her. The two of them were deskmates for almost half a year before they became friends.
Back then, Shen Qianshu was innocent, nice, and carefree. She was really kind. There was a period of time when Lin Xiaojuan’s family business went bankrupt, and times were difficult. Shen Qianshu brought Lin Xiaojuan home for meals and let her move into her house. Whenever she went over, Fang Xia would give her a red packet. No one knew whether Shen Qianshu made her do that or Fang Xia gave it on her own accord. This helped Lin Xiaojuan with her daily expenses for quite some time. She had always been on the good side of the Shen Family.
She also knew that back then that Fang Xia really adored Shen Qianshu. She was like a precious pearl in her hand. They showered her with love.
When Shen Lin first returned, Fang Xia was afraid that Shen Qianshu would not feel comfortable, so she fetched them home from school every single day. Whenever she was free, she would bring Qianshu out to play. Then, Qianshu was already very obedient and no longer rebellious. She was very quiet.
Fang Xia was also upset for a period of time.
Sometimes Lin Xiaojuan wondered, If nothing had changed, how would the current Qianshu be like?
No matter what, she was sure that she would not have grown up to be like Shen Lin.
Although her Qianshu was a domineering queen, she was a kind and magnanimous lady.
The Shen Family had also seen Shen Qianshu. She was representing Gubelin. Initially, she was supposed to get a seat further to the back, but since Tong Hua was on the show, Ye Yifan gave her VIP passes, and she was able to sit at the front row of the fashion stage. The Shen Family could only sit a few rows behind her.
Ye Yifan walked over and smiled as he sat beside Shen Qianshu. That drew reporters to snap photos of them hastily. Anyway, these things had been circulating all over the internet. They were all saying that he was wasting money to woo Shen Qianshu and that no matter how bad his brother’s temper was, it was not unreasonable for him to feel that way. So, he decided to just stay put.
“Sister, Shen Xiong looks at you in a really rude way. Should I teach him a lesson?” Ye Yifan spoke arrogantly like a peacock who was strutting its feathers. He looked like he was ready to hit anywhere his ‘sister-in-law’ wanted him to. If I can’t defeat you, my brother will.
“That’s not necessary. And stop calling me sister.”
Just as they were speaking, a group of people strode in. They were the three brothers of the Lu Family with Lu Mengyun and Lu Mengxi. Lu Mengyun had her arms around Yan Jianming, and the two were in couple outfits. They looked like a perfect match.
Shen Qianshu scoffed. Yan Jianming had already lost all his opportunities, and yet, he could pretend as if everything was fine. She wanted to see how long he could put up that act for.
Just then, Lin Xiaojuan came out and bumped into them face on. Her eyebrows did not even furrow, and she just went straight for Shen Qianshu.
“Qianshu, let’s go to the backstage for a while.”
“What for?”
Lin Xiaojuan laughed mysteriously, “For a show!”
The moment Yan Jianming saw Lin Xiaojuan, he was startled. Is that Lin Xiaojuan? He almost could not recognize her. **
How pretty.
