Terminally Ill Female Lead Of An Angst Novel Went Rampant After Her Awakening

Chapter 143: Don ‘t Think About Walking Away Unscathed Today

Lin Shanchu waved goodbye to Yun Wu before heading toward the training room.

Xia Jinmeng stood at the doorway with her arms crossed.

When Lin Shanchu walked up to her, Xia Jinmeng raised her chin and looked at her from the corner of her eyes. “There isn’t much time left for training. Don’t waste everyone’s time.”

Lin Shanchu didn’t even look at Xia Jinmeng as she walked straight into the training room.

Xia Jinmeng called her name again. “Lin Shanchu!”

However, Lin Shanchu acted as if she didn’t hear her and even quickened her pace.

Xia Jinmeng couldn’t say anything more in front of her groupmates.

“Perform the dance for me.” Xia Jinmeng stood in front of the team, looking very much like a team leader.

Lin Shanchu obediently started dancing with her groupmates.

Xia Jinmeng didn’t respect Lin Shanchu at all. As soon as the dance ended, she wanted to pick on Lin Shanchu.

However, before she could say anything, her groupmates beat her to it.

Everyone realized that Lin Shanchu was improving rapidly.

“Lin Shanchu, you improved so quickly! ”

“Yeah! You didn’t practice for a long time, yet you’re able to perform the whole dance without making any mistakes!”

“I didn’t expect you to be able to catch up to our progress so quickly…” The groupmates’ tones carried a hint of flattery.

After all, Lin Shanchu was one of the shareholders of the Lu Corporation.

No matter how many connections Xia Jinmeng had, she still couldn’t compare to Lin Shanchu.

Then again, what they said was the truth.

Xia Jinmeng felt extremely displeased when she saw everyone surrounding Lin Shanchu.

“Don’t waste your time. Hurry up and practice.” Everyone immediately dispersed and continued practicing.

Meanwhile, Lin Shanchu turned around and walked away.

Xia Jinmeng shouted at Lin Shanchu rudely, “Where are you going?

“The washroom.” Lin Shanchu turned around and looked at Xia Jinmeng calmly.

“Hurry up and come back.” Xia Jinmeng was a little embarrassed.”

Lin Shanchu had been gone for a long time and hadn’t returned.

Xia Jinmeng looked at the door from time to time. “It’s been almost half an hour. Why isn’t Lin Shanchu back yet?”

Her groupmates were busy training, so no one noticed how long Lin Shanchu had been gone.

A teammate chimed in, “Maybe she has a stomachache.”

“I’ll go take a look.” Xia Jinmeng turned her back to the camera and shot a glare at her groupmate.

Lin Shanchu must have been slacking off.

Xia Jinmeng walked into the washroom quietly upon reaching the entrance.

She walked alongside the cubicles.

When she walked to the innermost cubicle, she realized that the door showed “occupied”.

If she remembered correctly, the innermost cubicle door was broken.

Xia Jinmeng placed her hand on the cubicle door before pushing it open abruptly.

As soon as the door opened, she saw Lin Shanchu sitting on the toilet seat and playing with her phone.

He wasn’t in the toilet at all.

Xia Jinmeng smiled smugly. “I knew that you were slacking off!”

Lin Shanchu rotated the wrist that was holding the phone while glancing at Xia Jinmeng lazily. Then, she attempted to close the door on her.

It was only then that Xia Jinmeng noticed the phone in Lin Shanchu’s hand.

She quickly pushed against the door and snatched Lin Shanchu’s phone away.

“You actually hid your phone?”

“Give me back my phone.” Lin Shanchu’s expression was cold.

“Give it back to you?” Xia Jinmeng sneered. “Dream on! I want to hand it over to the director!”

As she spoke, she turned around and attempted to leave.

All Xia Jinmeng could think about was the fact that she could win against Lin Shanchu.

Therefore, she didn’t notice that Lin Shanchu didn’t look angry nor did she try to chase after her.

The phone’s screen was still lit.

Xia Jinmeng subconsciously glanced at it.

The smile on her face disappeared bit by bit.

She also stopped in her tracks.

The phone stopped at the official Weibo page of a certain luxury brand.

The pinned post on the Weibo page showed the official announcement of the collaboration between Tang Qidai and the luxury brand.

Even many A-listers had a hard time getting such a luxury brand endorsement.

Yet, a minor celebrity like Tang Qidai could easily secure such a deal.

Xia Jinmeng stared at the screen of her phone, her eyes red with jealousy.

She and Tang Qidai had both grown up in an orphanage, but Tang Qidai had a better life than her.

After all, she was adopted by a rich family and had Lu Shiyuan as her backer.

The resources that Xia Jinmeng could not get even after using every trick in her book were within Tang Qidai’s reach.

She had fought with Lin Shanchu for so long in the talent show, but she had fallen to third place.

Tang Qidai, on the other hand, could make a name for herself outside.

Xia Jinmeng had never felt the difference between her and Tang Qidai in such a

straightforward manner.

Tang Qidai didn’t need to work hard at all because Lu Shiyuan would give everything to her. Meanwhile, Xia Jinmeng had worked hard for many years, but she only had a group of fans at a smaller scale.

It was too unfair!

The more Xia Jinmeng thought about it, the angrier she got. She subconsciously raised her hand and wanted to throw the phone away.

“If you smash my phone right now, don’t even think about walking out of here alive today.”

Lin Shanchu’s words made Xia Jinmeng’s hand freeze in mid-air.

The former stepped forward and snatched the phone from Xia Jinmeng’s hand.

Then, she turned off her phone and stuffed it back into her pocket right in front of Xia Jinmeng. After that, Lin Shanchu turned to leave.

She looked calm as if nothing had happened.

Xia Jinmeng suddenly reached out and grabbed Lin Shanchu.

Lin Shanchu turned around to glance at the hand which was grabbing her.

Her gaze was cold and sharp.

Before she could say a word, Xia Jinmeng released her grip as if she had been scalded by hot water.

Xia Jinmeng calmed herself down before mocking, “You can’t even control a man. Just how useless are you?

If it wasn’t for the fact that Lin Shanchu couldn’t keep Lu Shiyuan’s heart, he wouldn’t have pampered Tang Qidai so much.

With that thought in mind, Xia Jinmeng was so angry that she could vomit blood.

Lin Shanchu pursed her lips. “Men who are fickle and heartless aren’t pets. Isn’t it normal for me to not be able to control him?”

She sounded very disappointed and sad.

Xia Jinmeng felt like she had vented her anger. “How did Tang Qidai manage to ensnare your fiancé’s heart? You might as well admit that you’re useless!”

“People change. Lu Shiyuan used to love me, and now he loves Tang Qidai. He might love someone else in the future.”

Lin Shanchu let out a long sigh while looking helpless.

Xia Jinmeng felt extremely good when she witnessed how sad Lin Shanchu was.

“You just don’t want to admit that you’re useless,” she retorted nonchalantly.

Lin Shanchu looked at Xia Jinmeng before saying seriously, “Just wait and see if you don’t believe me.”

For a moment, Xia Jinmeng was shocked by Lin Shanchu’s serious tone.

“Oh, right.”

Lin Shanchu smoothed down her hair slowly as she pointed out casually, “Xia

Jinmeng, you came from an orphanage like Tang Qidai, right?”

Xia Jinmeng’s expression changed slightly. Her expression instantly became abnormally vigilant.

“How did you know?”

Just like Tang Qidai, Xia Jinmeng cared about her family background.

Therefore, all of Xia Jinmeng’s articles talked about how talented and beautiful she was. She never dared to bring her background into the spotlight..
