Chapter 1071: Disparity in Acting Class

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The boy said, “How could the Chief abuse people like that?”

He didn’t know Xia Ling’s background and didn’t like that kind of arrogant and despotic girl. Instead, Li Bingman’s quiet disposition was pleasant to him. He thought about it and said, “How about this, you can give me the lunchbox. I’ll cut the queue and help you get food, then you can deliver it to your Chief. After that, how about we eat lunch together?”

Li Bingman’s eyes flashed with a glimmer of joy. “Really? How could I ask that of you?”

“It’s nothing to worry about,” said the boy. “Come, give it to me.” He was a fourth-grade student with good talent. He could probably debut in half a year. In the entertainment industry, he did not have anyone to rely on. If he could claim connections with the Li family’s sisters at this critical juncture, his road to debut would be much smoother.

He was bent on taking care of Li Bingman and took the lunchbox diligently.

Li Bingman instructed him. “The porcelain bowl with a light green pattern is to be filled with rice. The compartment of the same color with the white bottom is to be filled with soup. Xia Ling likes her soup to be thicker and doesn’t like minced meat. You have to remember to say that to the serving lady. The two larger bowls have to be filled with vegetables and meat. You have to arrange them properly or she won’t eat it.”

The boy was stunned for a while. “... she is so particular about her food?”

Li Bingman revealed another bitter smile. “She’s the Chief.”

“The other Chiefs aren’t like her.” The boy fought for Li Bingman’s justice. “Where’s your lunchbox? I’ll help you fill it.”

Li Bingman shook her head. “I didn’t bring it.” Xia Ling’s lunchbox was a whole set and was carried in a beautiful wooden box. Although not scattered, it was very heavy, and she was unable to bring anything else along with this set of tableware.

The boy frowned. “She’s so domineering. Forget it, I’ll bring you out to eat.”

He finished talking and turned to help Li Bingman cut the queue.

Li Bingman stared at his back and her lips curled into a slight smile. That’s right, even if she was under Xia Ling, that was only temporary. In the future, it was still uncertain who would be more powerful. She wanted to quietly pass on Xia Ling’s despotic reputation. On one hand, she could take revenge on the stupid Xia Ling, and on the other, she could set off her own cultivation and temperament. She was killing two birds with one stone, so why shouldn’t she be happy?

The boy carried Xia Ling’s lunchbox and cut the queue to the front.

“Hey, don’t cut the queue!” Behind him, several students waiting in line shouted. “Get out, get out.”

The boy shook the utensils in his hands. “Are you blind, I’m getting food for the first-year Chief.”

Suddenly, the students dare not stop him anymore. The Chief had such a privilege. So what if they bullied people? There was nothing they could do about it. But this first-grade Chief was really arrogant...

Even when the other Chiefs had the privilege to cut queues, they had never used it before. After all, since there were so many people who were willing to get food for them, why should they cut the queue and accumulate public anger? It was only Xia Ling who was thrown into the pit by Li Bingman and the boy. They were the ones who cut the queue, but the hatred fell on Xia Ling instead.

“No wonder other people said the new Chief Xia Ling is overly arrogant,” whispered someone behind the queue.

“You’re right,” someone whispered. “What’s so great about her, who knows if she can still be the Chief next semester.”

“She’ll be miserable if she can’t become the Chief again next year. She’s offended so many people, they’ll definitely want revenge on her.”

“Yes.”

Xia Ling was unaware of all these discussions about her. She was satisfied with having her daily meals sent on time and being waited on and flattered by the people around her. She did not bother to think about complicated things at all. The days passed and the people around her all welcomed her with smiling faces. When she encountered a few untactful people occasionally, she didn’t even need to do anything. Naturally, there were those who wanted to curry favor with her who would help her send them away... she was having a great time.

The only thing that made her uncomfortable was the Acting Class.

Her singing and dancing were very good and she could obtain an A even with her eyes closed. She was the object of the teachers’ praise for a long period of time and was the model example. The singing and dancing teachers would smile at her every time they saw her. But as for acting class? It was directly the opposite. As amazing as her singing and dancing performances were, that was how bad her acting was.

According to the teacher of acting class: “Xia Ling, your acting can’t even compare to an amateur in the film industry! You still have wishful thinking of debuting like this? Don’t tell people I was your teacher in the future!”

Xia Ling hung her head dispiritedly and was depressed.

She didn’t know why her acting skills just couldn’t improve. No matter how much time she practiced she was still unconvincing and couldn’t immerse herself in the role. Xiao Hua comforted her and said that the reason why she couldn’t act well was that her mind was too pure and she was unable to fathom the complicated human nature. However, she did not feel comforted.

That day, she was reprimanded by the teacher again.

“Xia Ling, go stand in the corner and take a good look at how others act. If this goes on, I can only assign you a minor character in the final performance.” The teacher had a face of dislike. “Look at Li Bingman, she entered school the same time as you and had zero basics in acting. But now? The heroine of the final performance is counting on her. Come, Li Bingman—” She turned her head and said in a much warmer tone, “Stand up and act this part for everyone. Act slowly to help Xia Ling understand.”

Li Bingman looked at Xia Ling apprehensively.

The acting teacher frowned. “What are you looking at?! Sure, she’s your Chief, but in this lesson, she’s just a scum! Li Bingman, don’t be afraid, act as you should. With her acting results, she won’t be able to guarantee her Chief position in the next semester.” Imperial Entertainment’s teachers had always been strict and unrelenting.

Xia Ling’s face turned a shade of white. She endured her anger with much difficulty.

Li Bingman still looked at her and said in hesitation, “Miss Xia Ling, I...”

“Go act,” Xia Ling said stiffly.

Li Bingman went over and, in an angle invisible to Xia Ling, her lips curled up into a smug smile. Humph, Xia Ling, so what if you have Pei Ziheng supporting you? Mud on the wall is still worthless. When the owner of the Chief position changes next semester, let’s see how arrogant you can be! She was in a good mood and displayed her acting skills fully and perfectly interpreted the teacher’s instructions. Gasps of exclamation sounded from below the stage.

Xia Ling’s heart was in a complete mess and she was a little angry. She could not absorb Li Bingman’s performance on stage no matter what. But she couldn’t blame Li Bingman, who told her to have acting skills that couldn’t compare? She had won over her upright and had not played any tricks this time. The scolding by the teacher was also well-deserved...

She became even more depressed as she thought of this.

After the class, she could not focus on anything the teacher was saying. The teacher’s words echoed repeatedly in her ear—act slowly to help Xia Ling’s understanding.

Had the gap between her and her classmates been widened to this extent?
