Chapter 387: Don't lie

When Lu Chen opens the door to Zhang Jian's dressing room, Gong Changming's expression turns bright. He warns Lu Chen, "Boss Lu, this is a code alpha!"

"Is it really that bad?" Lu Chen tilts his head. Shouldn't Zhang Jian be over his fear of crowds? He couldn't believe it was that bad. Gong Changming explains,

"I tried messing with him as you ordered me to do. But there was no response!" As he annoyed him, Zhang Jian did the unexpected that made Gong Changming scared.

"Yo. Didn't you get over it?" Lu Chen expected Zhang Jian to respond to it. And he did. But what he got was,

"Y-e-a-h." Zhang Jian's voice was separated into different chunks. He sounds more of a broken robot rather than a human.

"See! He's that bad!" "What do we do now?" Before Gong Changming and Chu Jingyi could say another word, they became silent.

Smack! Lu Chen slaps the back of Zhang Jian's head!

"Boss?!" "What are you doing?!"

Chu Jingyi and Gong Changming look at Lu Chen with their mouth gaping. They thought he would give Zhang Jian a pep talk or something. But not slap him in the head.

But it worked.

"Who am I? What happened?! Did the concert already start!" Zhang Jian gets out of his robot mode and swings his head around. He forgot everything that happened a few hours ago.

Lu Chen sighs and asks him, "Are you good now?"

"Yeah, I'm fine." Zhang Jian does the gust pose.

"Seriously, can you not act scared every time you go up? You're going to give everybody a heart attack." Lu Chen scolds him.

"Huh? What do you mean? I'm not scared."

"What are you saying?" "No, you're not. Don't lie." "Junior Zhang Jian, you shouldn't be lying."

The three negates what he said. Not scared? Weren't you talking like a robot a few seconds ago? Or did you forget about it?

"Yeah. I'm not scared at all. I'm more excited than scared." It was quite the opposite. His hands were shivering from excitement. He was so eager to the point that his brain froze.

"....Alright then." Lu Chen decides to ignore that. He turns to Chu Jingyi, "Chu Jingyi, you don't need to worry about Zhang Jian. Go back to your dressing room and get ready. You got a few minutes before we start."

Chu Jingyi nods, "Understand, boss." He walks out of Zhang Jian's dressing room and back to his. Lu Chen turns back to Gong Changming, "You stay here and watch over Zhang Jian. Don't let him get too excited again."

"Yes, sir!"

...

While Lu Chen was dealing with these things, inside the VIP room,

"To think you have the confidence to come near brother Chen again." Ye Meixiu looks at Feng Meifeng with arrogance. The two are sitting away from the others.

"Why can't I be here? Lu Chen was the one who personally invited me." Feng Meifeng didn't back down.

"Do you think I won't do anything to you?" Ye Meixiu sips on her drink and glares at her.

But the threat doesn't mean anything to Feng Meifeng. Feng Meifeng smirks at her, "If you wanted to do something to me, then you would have done it the first time we met in class."

Feng Meifeng has a clear idea of how Ye Meixiu operates. So she isn't scared of threats like this.

"Hahaha." The evil expression Ye Meixiu had before was nowhere to be found.

Instead, a light and happy expression replaced it. Everybody turns over, wondering what's going on.

Feng Meifeng's face turns dark, "What's so funny?"

"Nothing, as expected from my rival."

"Rival? How did I become your rival?" What made it weirder is why Ye Meixiu is looking at her like a rival.

"The moment you confessed your feelings for Lu Chen, that makes you my rival."

Feng Meifeng choked on air. Her face turns red as she shouts, "I never confessed our feelings!"

Ignoring Feng Meifeng''s outburst, Ye Meixiu continues, "As my rival, I won't be using any dirty tactics against you. I will be stealing Lu Chen's heart using my own power."

Getting something through underhanded means or through hard work? Ye Meixiu chooses the latter.

If Ye Meixiu used underhanded means to get Lu Chen, what good was it? Especially when it's Feng Meifeng.

That would be embarrassing. Earning Lu Chen's love through her hard work and beating everybody else will make everything feel so good.
