Jiang Hong looked at Jiang Ling’er. She really did not think highly of Jiang Ling’er’s acting skills, but as a teacher, she had to treat everyone equally. Jiang Hong asked, “Jiang Ling’er, do you have any problems with that?”

“No,” Jiang Ling’er said with a smile.

Jiang Hong was surprised by her straightforward answer. This was the first time she had seen Jiang Ling’er like this. Perhaps things would turn out fine.

In Bai Xue’s eyes, Jiang Ling’er’s confidence was just a pretense of calmness.

Bai Xue sneered. With Jiang Ling’er’s acting skills, she would definitely be defeated this time. In terms of acting skills, Bai Xue had never lost.

Jiang Hong looked at the contents of the paper again.

Jiang Hong said, “This scene is about a teacher who cherishes talents very much and is earnestly teaching a bad student. You may start now.”

Jiang Ling’er stood up and prepared to go on stage.

Wen Nuan asked worriedly, “Ling’er, are you sure?”

Jiang Ling’er smiled, putting Wen Nuan at ease.

…

Jiang Hong handed the script to Bai Xue and Jiang Ling’er. She smiled and said, “Jiang Ling’er, you will play the role of the head teacher. Bai Xue, you will play the role of the bad student. Now, you have three minutes to get familiar with the plot.”

Jiang Ling’er raised her eyebrows. She was surprised that the teacher didn’t ask her to play the role of a bad student.

When Bai Xue heard that she was acting as the bad student, she looked a little dissatisfied. Then, she pretended to be aggrieved and said, “Teacher Jiang…”

When Jiang Hong saw Bai Xue’s pretentious appearance, she was abnormally disgusted. Jiang Hong said, “What is it? What’s your problem?”

Bai Xue looked at Jiang Hong aggrievedly and said, “Teacher Jiang, I’m not suitable to be a bad student. It’s better for me to switch roles with Ling’er.”

Jiang Hong was so angry that she laughed. ‘What is she saying? Is she saying that Jiang Ling’er is more suitable to play the part of a bad student?’

Jiang Hong was about to tell them to switch roles when a mocking chuckle came from the door.

Everyone immediately looked at the door.

Jiang Hong saw Li Yan standing outside with a handsome man she had never seen before. She asked, “Yes? Is there something you need?”

“I’m sorry to disturb you,” said Li Yan indifferently.

“Sure,” Jiang Hong said with a smile.

What else could Jiang Hong say?

Li Yu walked up to Bai Xue and asked with a smile, “Are you Bai Xue?”

The handsome man suddenly stood in front of her with a smile. Bai Xue was a little distracted. Then, she nodded awkwardly and shyly.

Li Yan stood at the side and said, “Xue’er, this is my uncle. I told you about him before.”

Bai Xue blushed and said, “Hello, I’m Li Yan’s girlfriend, Bai Xue.”

As she spoke, she politely extended her hand.

Li Yu ignored Bai Xue’s outstretched hand and said expressionlessly, “Now, let us see your performance.”

Bai Xue was a little confused. When she came back to her senses, she asked awkwardly, “Huh? What… what do you mean?”

Li Yu frowned and said, “You’re asking me?”

“I really don’t understand what you mean,” Bai Xue said with a polite smile.

Li Yu looked at Jiang Ling’er and said, “Tell her what I mean.”

Jiang Ling’er looked at Li Yu and said, “You want to watch me perform? Did you buy a ticket?”

This man was Li Yan’s uncle? In her previous life, she had almost completed the novel but there was no mention of this character. Could she have missed it? Or could it be that there was a butterfly effect due to her transmigration?

Li Yu smiled and said domineeringly, “Interesting. I didn’t buy a ticket. If your acting skills are good enough to satisfy me, I can protect you.”

Jiang Ling’er raised her hand and snapped her fingers, removing the headband from her hair.

Her beautiful hair draped over her shoulders, and she immediately portrayed the image of a calm and gentle teacher.

Jiang Ling’er got into character and immediately said in the tone of a teacher, “Bai Xue, your grades have dropped again this time, and you’ve dropped out of the top ten in class. The college entrance exam is only one semester away. Your parents worked so hard to send you to school.”

Jiang Ling’er’s tone was full of cadence. One could not hear any emotion from her, but there was a faint look of disappointment in her eyes.

Bai Xue was stunned. She did not want to admit that Jiang Ling’er’s acting skills had improved a lot, but the truth was right in front of her. No matter how unhappy Bai Xue was, she could not change it.

Jiang Hong waited for a while. Seeing that Bai Xue was still in a daze, Jiang Hong immediately said, “Bai Xue, it’s your turn now!”

Hearing Jiang Hong’s reminder, Bai Xue immediately came back to her senses.

At this moment, Bai Xue panicked…

Bai Xue looked at the contents of the text. After pondering for a while, she could only force herself to act alongside Jiang Ling’er.

After a few minutes, Bai Xue’s head was covered in a thin layer of sweat.

Jiang Hong took the lead and started to applaud!
