Volume 4 Chapter 28: I Still Kept the Tights
Gao Liang looked left and right. Seeing that Lin Lin still didn’t look very happy, he finally started to think about his own actions.
Oh…
Was it because he thought learning otaku dance was just her personal hobby and didn’t plan to help her? Did that make her feel upset?
Gao Liang slapped his thigh and said to the girl who looked lost,
“Lin Lin, if you want to learn otaku dance, how about we find a dance practice room?”
“Huh?”
Lin Lin, who had just felt like her life was over, blinked her eyes.
Suddenly, she felt a little hope again.
Her rival was helping her!
She didn’t know why, but she suddenly felt a little relieved. Maybe it was because the last few times he helped her, things turned out fine in the end.
But…
After calming down, Lin Lin still couldn’t help but doubt.
Would this really work?
The task required zero mistakes. Even if Gao Liang helped, that didn’t mean she could reach that level.
And…
She didn’t know much about dance practice rooms.
She was learning otaku dance, not traditional dance or K-pop dance. Did she really need such a place?
“Um… can’t I just practice at home?” she asked uncertainly.
For a girl like her, who preferred staying at home, it was always better to practice at home.
But Gao Liang explained calmly.
“In a dance studio, first, the space is bigger. The room is designed especially for practicing dance. Second, there are large mirrors on the walls. You can see your whole body while dancing, which helps you correct your movements. Even if you have a full-length mirror at home, it’s probably not as good as the setup in a studio.”
“Oh, I see…”
After hearing that, Lin Lin imagined what a dance studio looked like.
Thinking about it, he was right. At home, she was just breaking down the moves and practicing alone. She couldn’t clearly see if her movements were correct. Recording a video and watching it again would be too troublesome.
It might really be better to go to a dance studio.
Although…
The thought of watching herself dance in a mirror felt a little embarrassing.
Still, it was better than practicing blindly. Girl groups trained like that too, right?
If she looked at herself more often, she would get used to it.
Seriously… after all this time, she still felt shy looking at her own body. That was kind of ridiculous.
“Alright then. Thank you, Gao Liang. Please help me find a dance studio that’s not too far away.”
“Okay!” Gao Liang nodded excitedly. “I’ll arrange it. Let’s go tomorrow. After I find a place, I’ll message you online. Then I’ll drive to pick you up and take you there. Oh… and you should wear suitable clothes. For dancing, the clothes should be comfortable and maybe a bit stretchy.”
His kind reminder sounded a little strange in Lin Lin’s ears.
She blushed, turned her head away, and said proudly,
“I know, I know! Tsk. You just want to see it, right? The tights you bought for me last time—I haven’t thrown them away. But I’m wearing them for dancing today, okay? Hmph. Bet you didn’t expect I already planned this, right?”
“Uh…” Gao Liang nodded awkwardly. “I didn’t expect you had already planned this too…”
Ah…
After hearing what her rival said, Lin Lin suddenly felt…
Was this actually part of his plan?
……………………
On the other side, Yi Xiao woke up from her restless sleep.
She hadn’t slept well at all. A whole night of broken, uncomfortable sleep didn’t make her feel better. Instead, it made her even more tired and irritated.
She sighed. Her face didn’t look good. It felt like she had finally survived a long night, but there was no sense of relief.
It seemed that even after choosing to come home and rest for a while, her condition still hadn’t improved.
Yi Xiao sighed again. She roughly knew why she felt like this.
Before taking a break from work, she had already been under great pressure because her career was slowing down. Some unreasonable fans had also caused trouble and damaged her reputation. These pressures had made her suffer from long-term insomnia.
After taking time off, things had improved a little.
But then, on A-Liang’s side, that girl who suddenly appeared… Lin Lin… made her extremely angry.
It had been a long time since anyone dared to treat her so badly. She was, after all, a well-known person in the entertainment world.
Yet during this time at home, A-Liang, Lin Lin, and even that woman with glasses beside her—
All three of them went against her.
Even Xiao Ye was not on her side.
If it was only A-Liang, she could still understand and even hope to fix things. After all, he was only a bit cold to her. They hadn’t completely broken their relationship. She still believed things could be repaired.
But Lin Lin, this troublemaker…
Yi Xiao truly hated her and would definitely get back at her.
She thought her home in Huadu City was her last safe place.
She didn’t expect that even here, she would feel like she didn’t belong anymore.
How could she accept that?!
She became angrier and angrier. Finally, two days ago, she started contacting her connections in the entertainment industry, fan group leaders, and even some family members who could help her. She asked them to investigate Lin Lin’s background.
Before, she didn’t know much about Lin Lin. She only knew that Lin Lin had a close and unclear relationship with A-Liang, and that A-Liang was even picking her up and taking her to school every day.
But as the investigation went deeper, what made Yi Xiao even more unhappy was—
Lin Lin was A-Liang’s desk mate in class.
No wonder A-Liang liked her.
Feelings grow over time, right? If two people spend enough time together, they might think they like each other.
Yi Xiao quickly came to that conclusion.
However, it was very hard to find more information about Lin Lin. She had almost no social connections. Her relationship network was very simple. She hardly had any friends or social life.
Someone like that was almost isolated from society.
Without connections, how could they investigate her?
If they wanted to continue digging, they would probably need to hack into her computer or phone to see what she usually did at home.
But what was the point of that?
Yi Xiao couldn’t find any weakness in Lin Lin, especially not something that would make A-Liang completely disappointed in her.
That was what troubled her the most.
She had even started thinking that if she couldn’t find a weakness, she would create one herself.
Then—
Just after she got up, she received a message from her assistant.
On the phone, a man’s slightly sly voice sounded. He laughed and said loudly,
“Xiao Xiao, about that woman with glasses who argued with you the other day, we found some important information about her. What do you think?”
“Luo Shangrong!” Yi Xiao immediately became alert and shouted his name. “What is it? Tell me quickly!”
