Chapter 736: Brainwashing

Lu Si’s reaction to Mei Shu tonight was somewhat vigilant.

Seeing her sigh, he nervously grabbed her hand and asked, “What are you thinking?”

Mei Shu said, “If Feng Wei hadn’t chosen to marry a man like Meicheng back then, but had listened to Teacher Feng and continued to study dance, she would probably be able to participate in this national competition today.”

Lu Si whispered anxiously, “Are you feeling guilty about her sacrificing herself to save you?”

Mei Shu gently shook her head, “I can’t say if it’s guilt or something else. I just suddenly don’t hate her as much anymore. It’s like I can forgive her even for kidnapping me and hitting me.”

“You’re too soft-hearted.” Lu Si helplessly patted her hand. The competition venue was playing deafening music at this moment, and he needed to get closer for Mei Shu to hear clearly. “After we’re done with our matters, I’ll take you out to relax. It’s almost time for you to start school again, so you should have some fun before school starts.”

Mei Shu also looked up and smiled at him, showing a rare cute and obedient side of a young girl. She nodded innocently, “Okay, I’ll do as you say.”

Backstage.

A hand lightly lifted the curtain and then retracted in frustration.

A woman wearing a bright red dress with a large skirt and a striking rose embellishment around her waist walked back to the dressing room in annoyance.

This competition involved some confidential information about dancers creating choreography, so Mei Shu, at Feng Mo’s request, prepared a separate dressing room and makeup room for each contestant to ensure that their costume styles would not be exposed before they went on stage.

However, this dressing room accommodated two contestants.

Meng Yan returned with her big skirt, seeing Ruan Ning touching up her makeup with her own cosmetics, she became even more annoyed, “I called you here to help me with ideas, but you’re just busy dressing yourself up!”

Ruan Ning didn’t care at all about her attitude, admiring her satisfactory makeup in the mirror before slowly putting down her makeup, saying, “What ideas? Your crush is Master Si. With just you, can you snatch him away from Mei Shu?”

“That’s why I came to you!” Meng Yan sat down on the sofa dejectedly and poured herself a glass of water to drink. “Who in school doesn’t know that you, Ruan Ning, are the best at playing with men? Those self-proclaimed male gods all ended up jealous because of you?”

Ruan Ning smiled faintly, so beautiful that the glaring lights in front of the makeup mirror paled in comparison. “That’s their stupidity, but Master Si is not foolish.”

“I don’t care! Anyway, you have to help me! Aren’t we best friends?” Meng Yan couldn’t find convincing reasons to persuade her, so she resorted to acting like a spoiled child.

Ruan Ning was obviously accustomed to her little tricks. She gracefully stood up, and her exquisite appearance in the mirror instantly transformed into a voluptuous figure.

She could be pursued as a goddess by Lin City University not just because of her methods but also because her methods and appearance were impeccable. Any man would subconsciously focus on her when they saw her.

Compared to her, any meticulously groomed girl would seem vulgar and ridiculous.

Meng Yan was so jealous that she was almost going crazy. If she could have such a good figure and appearance, she would definitely not be sitting here in distress.

She could easily snatch Lu Si without worrying about Mei Shu at all!

“Alright.” Ruan Ning sat softly beside her, her voice gentle and pleasant. “You should perform well later. Maybe your crush will notice you?”

“Then you mustn’t dance too well!” Meng Yan selfishly demanded.

Ruan Ning still smiled gently, “Okay, I promise not to steal your spotlight.”

Meng Yan was satisfied only then, not knowing if she was comforted by the gentle fragrance emanating from Ruan Ning’s body or if she was also impressed by her beauty unintentionally. Meng Yan always became obedient and well-behaved in front of her.

This was something even Meng Yan herself hadn’t noticed.

Just then, someone knocked on the door of the dressing room from the outside.

Meng Yan got up to open the door, only to see a staff member coming to inform her to go on stage.

Ruan Ning gently patted her shoulder for comfort, “Don’t be nervous. Your dance skills have always been excellent. Perform well, and maybe the person you like will notice you?”

Meng Yan felt a little flustered inexplicably, but when she thought that after the competition she might be recognized by Lu Si, she felt a little excited in her heart. “Okay! I’ll do my best! Alt Ning, you must remember our agreement! I must win the championship tonight!”

“Okay.” Ruan Ning said gently, as if she would comply with everything she ordered.

Meng Yan was finally relieved and followed the staff member to the stage.

However, after she left, a man in a suit walked out from the dark corner.

“Alt Ning, how’s everything going?”

Ruan Ning smiled and said, “It’s all been arranged. Meng Yan has already been brainwashed by me. She has really fallen for Master Si and even treats this competition as a bridge to get to know him.”

The man satisfactorily curled his lips, “That’s good. I’ve also taken care of things on my end.. Tonight, we ll definitely give those two people a special surprise!”
