The other trainees all looked at Xia Yingluo with different expressions. Some were sympathetic, some took joy over her calamity—wasn’t it too awkward? Everyone knew that Zhao Yixuan had an unclear relations.h.i.+p with Xia Yingluo before, and now they were asking her to perform at his wedding? Wasn’t it humiliating for her?

“I won’t go,” Xia Yingluo said.

The teacher said, “It’s not up to you. All your final grades will be void if you don’t obey the training camp’s arrangement.”

Xia Yingluo sneered. “You can expel me if you have the ability.”

The teacher frowned. “Xia Yingluo, you have no reason to make trouble!”

Who was making trouble out of nowhere? Xia Yingluo still wanted to argue, when suddenly, severe pain broke out in her body. She bent down immediately in pain.

“Yingluo! What’s wrong with you?” Jin Ling’er quickly hugged her and asked with concern.

She was speechless, and cold sweat formed on her forehead.

The teacher said, “It’s useless to pretend to be sick. It’s settled. Prepare well and don’t throw our training camp’s face.”

It was settled like this. Xia Yingluo was in pain and anger and originally did not intend to go no matter what, but she suddenly had an idea and smiled—didn’t they want to humiliate her? Very well, when it was the engagement party’s banquet, they’d see who would be the humiliated one!

So she stopped talking and followed Jiang Bilian and the others to prepare for the dance.

They prepared a group dance. Zhu Zhu, Zhang Qiang and the rest were all Jiang Bilian’s friends, so they naturally recommended Jiang Bilian as the lead dancer. She could only be pushed to the corner dance position and was not conspicuous at all.

Xia Yingluo didn’t argue with them and just practiced peacefully.

Jiang Bilian and the others thought she was afraid and became very proud. They didn’t try to make things more difficult for her.

Because they were very clear that dancing at the Pei family’s engagement banquet was an opportunity to show their faces. There would be a lot of big names there, and maybe someone would fancy them. The help they could provide for their future was inestimable. They all cherished this opportunity and didn’t want to ruin it out of their anger toward Xia Yingluo, so they only warned her sternly. “Dance properly! Don’t throw our faces!”

Xia Yingluo smiled. Rest a.s.sured, she would dance “well”.

Her physical condition was good and bad interchangeably, and sometimes she would suddenly be in terrible pain and almost fall down in the practice room.

After interrupting several dance practices due to her physical condition, Jiang Bilian and the others were very upset and went to complain. “Replace Xia Yingluo, how can she go on stage to perform like this? What if she ruins it and throws our faces?”

The teacher sneered. “If she doesn’t go, you don’t have to go either.”

What a joke, did they actually think they had been selected out of their excellence? From beginning to end, Ms. Pei only wanted Xia Yingluo! The rest of them were only signboard! Ruin it? It was even better if it was ruined, then Ms. Pei would have a justified reason to humiliate Xia Yingluo, wouldn’t she?

Jiang Bilian and the others were unable to change anything and came back with a bad mood.

Xia Yingluo was also worried about her body. She didn’t want to faint while dancing at the wedding banquet. Then, wouldn’t she embarra.s.s herself and fulfill the wishes of Pei Yan and that man? She must find a way to stop this pain. At present, she could only turn to Wei Lingnan.

Then she remembered that she didn’t have his contact information.

Xia Yingluo was furious and decided to go to the back mountain to try her luck—that was where she had run into him that day, so maybe she could run into him there again? She picked a windy and sunny day, put on a light dress, and took a knife to defend herself, then went up the mountain alone.

In the mountains, the trees provided shade, the golden light of the afternoon was overwhelming, and the birds were chirping cheerfully.

Taking a deep breath, she shouted, “Wei Lingnan—Wei Lingnan—”

Her loud shouting startled countless birds.

She shouted for a long time but still didn’t see a figure.

Just when she was desperate, she turned around and saw the tall figure of a man behind her. He still wore a finely crafted plain s.h.i.+rt with his short black hair slightly covering his narrow eyes. He stood erectly under a cl.u.s.ter of violet flowers, looking cool and elegant in the hot summer sun.

She was somewhat frightened.

She glared at him. “Why are you standing behind me without a word? Do you know I’ll have a heart attack?”

He looked at her. “Did I scare you?”

“Humph, no way.” She pursed her lips.

He smiled slightly. “Sorry.”

She glared at him angrily. “I said I wasn’t scared!”

The smile in his eyes deepened and he took a step forward. “Why are you looking for me?”

Hearing this, she didn’t know what to say. The man in front of her was tall, and a strong sense of oppression came from him as he approached step by step. She had to exert great efforts to restrain her urge to step back. He walked in front of her, with a faint, unknown bitter scent on his body. She didn’t know where it came from, but it smelled like medicine and some sort of chemical mixture.

She looked up at him, her thoughts a little messy.

She couldn’t just say it to him directly, Hey, I have another rejection reaction, would you kiss me?

A thousand thoughts turned in her heart, and his face was getting bigger and bigger in front of her eyes. She felt her lips covered with something soft and cool and it took a while to realize that he was kissing her.

A lingering kiss.

It felt like it was taking care of some kind of treasure, so gentle and precious.

Her brain was blank, and she didn’t know whether she was shocked or confused. She had yet to even say anything, how had he realized her wish so fast? So what were her psychological construction and her fear of facing death on the way here?!

She was stunned.

She didn’t even know when his lips left her.

Wei Lingnan looked down at the girl in his arms and was a little amused. “Why, did you enjoy it so much you went speechless?”

Xia Yingluo came back to her senses, her cheeks blus.h.i.+ng red. “You were the one enjoying it!”

“I did enjoy it,” he said with a grin, looking at her intensely. “It’s insatiable.”

She blushed even more and pushed him away as if pus.h.i.+ng something hot. After taking a lot of steps backward, she reluctantly calmed her mind. “You, don’t come over.”

He really stood still. “Why, didn’t you want me to kiss you after spending so much effort to find me?” He could guess why she was looking for him. It must be that she had a reaction again and had no choice but to find him.

Xia Yingluo was embarra.s.sed that he had read her mind. “No!”

“Oh?”

“You, what do you want?” Xia Yingluo managed to sort out her thoughts and said, “Yes, I came to you because of the reaction, but I didn’t want you to kiss me!”
