a new beginning

When Lu Biya heard Su Meirong's words, her expression changed as she turned to look at the drunken Tan Jing and viciously glared at her but this was neither the time nor place where she could throw a tantrum at Tan Jing which was why she took a deep breath and then she turned to look at Su Meirong.

Though Su Meirong was a girl whose family was only slightly richer than others, she was prettier than Tan Jing given that the latter had sunken under eyes because she always stayed drunk. And more importantly, Su Meirong despite being the daughter of a nouveau-rich family was a bit more refined and tactful, she knew what to say and when which made her much more likeable than Tan Jing who acted arrogantly.

Though Lu Biya was not inclined on breaking up with Tan Jing yet given that her mother was a well-known socialite and an actress who won the best actress award with the best pr team in the country, as long as Tan Jing was with her, Lu Biya could make use of these little benefits which the latter brought with her, but after knowing what she said behind her back, Lu Biya still started to dislike Tan Jing a little more than she did in the past.

" You…" she turned to look at Su Meirong who was standing beside Tan Jing and then gave her a quick look as she examined the dress which Su Meirong was wearing, though it was not as expensive as Tan Jing, it was neat and without a single blemish.

Unlike Su Meirong, Tan Jing was a mess. Her dress had something white and sticky clinging to the front which showed that she threw up on herself and she was not even stable at the moment, there was no way she could bring her along.

Thus, she turned to Su Meirong who looked pretty decent when compared to Tan Jing who was drunk beyond her rationality.

" Yes?" Though Su Meirong knew that Lu Biya was asking her to come along with her to the front stage she still pretended as if she did not understand, like she did not anticipate this result at all.

' Did Xua Ying Yue's solution really work? How is this even possible? Did she really know Lu Biya so well?' Su Meirong initially thought that there was no way, Lu Biya will ever fall into such a low-ranking trap but to her surprise, she really reacted as Xua Ying Yue told her in the small letter.

Though Su Meirong did not know why Xua Ying Yue was helping her out, she was not smart enough to think of a plausible reason, in the end, she threw the entire thing at the back of her head not taking the matter seriously at all.

Xua Ying Yue was gone and she was not going to come back, so was there any need to worry about it? She did not think so!

As long as she sucks up to Lu Biya, her father will receive more and more benefits and when that happens she will no longer have to lower her head as she was doing right now, though she will not be able to surpass Tan Jing and Lu Biya but the rest of the girls in her class, who made fun of her…she will definitely make them suffer!

" Come with me," Lu Biya told Su Meirong not knowing that the girl whom she considered a fool and a coward was daring enough to scheme against her at the moment.

Since she needed someone from the school standing up for her in the front hall and singing her praises in her support along with Headmistress Huang, she was going to put Su Meirong up for the task, this girl usually blew rainbow farts anyway, the task was not going to be hard on her.

When Su Meirong heard Lu Biya's words, her eyes lit up. She thought of the thick printed letter which was hiding in her closet and decided that she was going to go back home and read it thoroughly again, that way she will be able to get a good idea of how to deal with Lu Biya until she was dancing to her tune without even knowing!

" Yes, right away!" Su Meirong dumped Tan Jing who was stumbling on the couch and then followed after Lu Biya who was heading towards the front stage, as she left she turned her head and looked at Tan Jing who was sitting on the couch and sneered before scoffing at her head,

' Just you wait, in a few years, I will be standing next to Lu Biya just like you, let's see if you will dare to touch me then.'

With that thought in her head, Su Meirong's mood up as she started praising Lu Biya, " Sister Biya, you are looking so wonderful in the blue dress, is it CH? I think it is, oh my, to think that you can buy such an expensive dress, you are really one in a million."

Su Meirong did not know that Lu Biya was insecure about everything other than her background, all she knew was this was one of the tactics which was taught to her by Xua Ying Yue who left a letter for her when she was leaving telling her that as long as she praised Lu Biya for being 'special and unique' she will be able to earn some brownie points for herself.

Sure enough, when Lu Biya heard Su Meirong's praise her lips curled into a smile and then she replied while tucking a strand of her hair behind her ear, " You are right, I am indeed better than the rest. This dress is not only the most expensive one in the current batch which was released by CH but it is the only one which was personally designed by Chen Hao, you know the owner of CH? I thought that it suited this joyful occasion the best! "

When Su Meirong heard Lu Biya's words, she rolled her eyes at her inwardly. What was the point of wearing this dress when you are receiving an award for plagiarising someone else's work?

Though that was what Su Meirong thought in her head, on the outside she only had praise for Lu Biya.
