Chapter 1098: Curry Favor with Her

Pei Ziheng reached out and held her delicate white hand in his palm.

She struggled and failed to break free, so she could only let him hold her hand. The scenery outside the window flew past and soon, they arrived at the door of the Training Camp. Xia Ling said softly, “Let go, I have to get off.”

Pei Ziheng did not let go. “I promise you.”

She looked at him inexplicably.

Pei Ziheng smiled a little. “Little vinegar jar, I promise you I won’t touch other women and will wait for you to come home.”

She blushed and glanced at the driver in the front seat. The well-trained driver sat on the side and pretended not to hear anything even though he had heard it all. Xia Ling sighed softly. “Who wants you to wait?”

“You really don’t?” He laughed.

She bit her lip and stretched out her pinky finger. “Pinky promise.”

Her white and delicate little finger interlaced with his warm and dry one. They shook their hands as if taking a vow of a lifetime. She jumped out of the car lightly, waved her hands and walked towards the school while humming.

Along the way, many people secretly looked at her.

Some trainees dragged their companions and whispered, “Did you see, that Rolls-Royce is Chairman Pei’s. He came to send Xia Ling off again.”

“Wow, I wonder if the Chairman is inside.”

“Definitely. She just waved at the window.”

“She’s so lucky. She was originally an orphan, but later hit the jackpot and got adopted by the Chairman. She doesn’t have to worry about anything for the rest of her life and can even be famous.” The trainees exclaimed in admiration. Several people put up a life or death struggle and yet still didn’t know when they could debut, but for Xia Ling, it was a star-studded journey instead. It was rumored that the entire Imperial Entertainment’s best resources were being mobilized for her, waiting for her to learn and build her skills for the debut.

Poor Li Bingman and all those in the same grade as her, they just had to be extruded everywhere.

Xia Ling knew nothing about these discussions. After returning to the dormitory and arranging her things, she went to her own practice room to practice. The practice room was originally a classroom for the elite class, and Xia Ling had found it wonderful when she came here last time. The large mirror stretched over three walls, and the floor-to-ceiling French windows were beautiful. The French window looked out into a quiet grove, during spring there were flowers blossoming, during summer there was shade, during autumn there was long grass growing, and during winter there was snow floating down. She had said to Pei Ziheng, “It would be such a blessing to be able to practice here. My mood gets good just by walking in here.”

Thus, this practice room was closed to the outside world and transformed into her own exclusive space.

Xia Ling happily thanked Pei Ziheng, and the whole elite class was both in envy and hatred. Though they were angry, they did not dare to speak up. They even forced out smiles and congratulated Xia Ling on getting such a good practice place—who told her to have such a good background?

Not only this practice room, but several classrooms and groves in the vicinity were also closed off. Pei Ziheng ordered people to lay a gravel trail that led from there all the way to the artificial lake. They put a table and a bench on the side of the trail and turned it into a small private garden.

She progressed rapidly by practicing her singing and dancing here.

She was in a very good mood. When she saw this beautiful scenery, she remembered how good Brother Pei was to her. She must also work hard and strive to debut earlier and become famous in order to repay Brother Pei’s sincerity.

Determined, she continued to work even harder.

She practiced several pronunciations and several movements before noon arrived.

Li Bingman wore a training suit that she didn’t have time to change out of and rushed into the garden with a lunch box. She laid the tablecloth on the stone table and set the tableware, then stood outside Xia Ling’s practice room for a few minutes. She saw that her dance came to an end and said softly, “Xiao Ling, it’s time for lunch. Today, the canteen made your favorite smoked salmon, and the dessert is mango pudding.”

Ever since the first graders were conquered by Xia Ling, the task of delivering meals had been on her head for the past years. At the start, Li Bingman was reluctant and felt that this errand was bitter, tiring and shameful. But gradually, this errand became popular, and countless students in the Training Camp rushed to help her.

Initially, Li Bingman had thought she was very attractive.

Until one day, her sister Li Bingyu who was aware of this situation scolded her in resentment for failing to meet her expectations. “Are you stupid! Do you know they all rushed to send food to Xia Ling? The news has already spread that the Chairman has long pampered this girl. Last month, because she wanted to experience filming, the Chairman removed the important child protagonist of ‘The Long Song of Troubled Times’ and let her play the role! Who knew that the big lady played for two days and was bored of it, so she quit and was unwilling to continue doing it. Zhang Ziqiang, the big-named director, even had to pull onto her while crying about how he wouldn’t be able to stick to the schedule if he couldn’t find a new actor, and in the end, Xia Ling recommended Xiao Hua randomly! What kind of trash is Xiao Hua, she’s just a little trainee who hasn’t even debuted! But because of Xia Ling’s casual recommendation, she directly became such an important protagonist! She even partnered with a famous male actor! You just wait, in a few years when this movie is released, Xiao Hua is guaranteed to be famous!”

Li Bingman was not convinced. “It’s just a coincidence, what can it prove?”

Li Bingyu was so angry she wanted to hit her. “A coincidence? The Training Camp has so many powerful actresses, why didn’t they ask them to play the role? I’m telling you, how many people were eyeing the role covetously, how many first-class actresses wanted to snatch the spotlight away! Do you think the director really couldn’t find anyone? He just didn’t want to offend Pei Ziheng! So he had to retain Xia Ling! Later, when Xia Ling recommended Xiao Hua, even though she’s not famous, how could he dare to not use her?”

Li Bingman muttered, “That’s also because of Xiao Hua’s acting skills. She’s the top ten in the elite class.”

“What about you? You’re the first place in the elite class, why isn’t it your turn?!” Li Bingyu simply wanted to murder her. “Bingman, oh, Bingman, I already told you to put away your self-esteem. In this circle, the most worthless thing is self-esteem! The most valuable thing in the world is connections and relationships! It doesn’t matter what method you use as long as you curry favor with Xia Ling. With just a few resources slipping through the cracks of her fingers casually, you will be able to soar!”

Li Bingman was pelted down by her sister’s scolding. Only then was she awakened to the seriousness of the problem. She took great pains to take back the right to “deliver rice to Xia Ling”. Every day from then on, she was cautious and diligent in completing the work she had been reluctant to do.

But her heart was still indignant. Why did Xia Ling have such a good life?

Her acting skill was obviously so bad, yet she was able to make the difference between life and death so casually!

At the moment, as she stood in front of Xia Ling’s exclusive practice room and looked at the girl who gracefully stretched her limbs in the empty room, Li Bingman’s heart was full of hatred.

Xia Ling heard her voice and turned around. “It’s lunchtime so soon?”

Li Bingman displayed her acting skills and her face turned full of enthusiasm and intimacy. “You practiced too hard, Xiao Ling, and you didn’t even know it was time for lunch. Your health is more important. Come and eat quickly, I’ve laid out the table for you already.”
