Chapter 42: Palace's Scheming

On a winter day, the morning is very late.

When six o'clock sounded in my head, it was still pitch black.

Lin Moran turned off the alarm, stared at the ceiling and paused for more than ten seconds, then got up and got out of bed.

When she got out of bed, her foot stepped on the slippers, something was on the palm of her foot, she didn't stand firm in pain, and took two steps back.

Her screams woke up the two remaining people in the dormitory.

"What's wrong?"

Su Tingting rubbed her eyes in a daze and asked.

Now Lin Moran is standing under the bed alone, a certain distance from the light switch, the soles of her feet are sweating with pain, and she doesn't dare to move around at will, so she took out her mobile phone and turned on the flashlight to shine on the ground.

On the floor was a shattered glass.

On the ground, in Lin Moran's slippers, there were sparkling glass shards.

There was also blood on the debris.

At this moment, Su Tingting and Meng Zimeng were completely awakened.

Su Tingting hurriedly got up, and before putting on her shoes, she took a special look at her slippers, and there was no glass slag in them, so she put them on and ran to the door to turn on the light.

When Meng Zimeng got off the bed, he also checked her shoes first.

"I have it in my shoes. ”

Su Tingting helped Lin Moran sit on the chair, "Xiaoxiao, you sit down first and don't move." ”

Meng Zimeng was bowing down to check the ground, "This is Tingting's glass, why did it break here?"

Meng Zimeng and Lin Moran's beds are facing each other, Su Tingting and Xiang Xuan's beds are facing each other, and when they go to bed and off the table, there will be some things for their own use on the table.

As soon as Su Tingting heard Meng Zimeng say this, she looked over here.

"Looks like it's mine. ”

In this bedroom, only Su Tingting used a transparent glass.

"I can't find my water glass, but...... How could it be broken last night," Su Tingting was a little puzzled, "I don't remember hearing any noise." ”

There was an eerie silence in the dormitory.

Meng Zimeng said: "Tingting, are you sleepwalking, I remember that Xiang Xuan said one night before that he saw you get out of bed, but when I asked about you the next day, you didn't remember anything." ”

Su Tingting cried with a sad face, "If it were me, I would be too guilty, Xiaoxiao, what should you do with this foot, can you still walk?"

Lin Moran was silent, listening to the conversation between Meng Zimeng and Su Tingting, and used cotton swabs and iodine wine to remove the broken glass slag on the soles of his feet.

"I guess so. ”

There are iodine swabs in the dormitory, but there are no bandages and gauze.

"I have a band-aid. Su Tingting hurriedly said.

"Then lend me a little bit of it. ”

Lin Moran's left foot hit the ground first, and there were more holes pierced by glass slag, and there was still blood, and there was a deep hole in his right foot.

Su Tingting looked at Lin Moran's injured foot, she didn't dare to look at it, she turned her head to dodge, for fear that her eyes would touch it, and she felt pain when she looked at it, but Lin Moran dealt with it by herself without a sound.

When the glass shards were removed, Su Tingting closed her eyes.

"Xiaoxiao, don't you hurt?"

"Hurt also treats wounds. Lin Moran threw the blood-stained cotton swab into a paper basket, "What time is it?" ”

"It's almost half past six, hurry up, we're going to be late for the meeting. Meng Zimeng, who was putting on makeup, said.

Just when Lin Moran was dealing with the wound on his foot, Meng Zimeng had already gone to change his clothes and put on makeup.

While Lin Moran was on the ground with both feet, her eyebrows frowned in pain, and she stood in place and stopped for a few seconds.

Su Tingting hurriedly went to help her: "Xiaoxiao, are you okay?"

Lin Moran waved his hand and strode to the bathroom to wash.

Meng Zimeng looked at Lin Moran who walked to the bathroom from the mirror, and snorted coldly in his heart, he didn't expect this Lin Moran to be quite able to endure the pain.

Time was already very tight, Lin Moran simply washed up, and Meng Zimeng was already dressed.

"Xiaoxiao, you can put on makeup again in the car, it's too late. ”

Lin Moran didn't talk to her, walked to the vanity mirror, and applied skin care products.

Mencius stomped his feet, "Then I'll go first!"

Su Tingting sighed, she felt that her glass was broken and hurt Lin Moran's foot, "Xiaoxiao, do you still want to participate in the competition?"

"Yes. Lin Moran asked rhetorically, "Why don't you go?"

"But your feet ......"

"No problem. ”

Lin Moran changed into the first set of clothes first, but when wearing high heels, he still made a difficulty.

She chose two pairs of high heels yesterday and matched them with different outfits.

But now that the soles of my feet are injured, wearing high heels only makes the pain worse.

"Wrap it up for me. ”

Su Tingting helped Lin Moran pick up her high heels, as well as two other sets of clothes, and packed a small suitcase for her.

"The cosmetics are all in for you. ”

"Okay, thanks. ”

Lin Moran first picked out a pair of comfortable soft-soled flats and put them on, "Then let's go." ”

Su Tingting saw the change in the expression on her face, "I'll send it over for you." ”

On the way to the meeting place, Lin Moran received another call from the leading teacher.

"Mu Xiaoxiao, are you still here?"

"Come, I'll be there soon. ”

Lin Moran endured the pain, ran to the bus, and got on the bus.

Su Tingting's face was full of guilt.

I don't know if Lin Moran can succeed in this competition.

In the car, Lin Moran arrived late, only the back row was left, so he sat directly in the back row.

The teacher prepared milk, bread and eggs for each student to supplement their nutrition.

Meng Zimeng walked to the back row with the bread and sat next to Lin Moran, "Xiaoxiao, how is your foot? If not, don't wronged yourself." ”

Lin Moran peeled off the eggshell, "How do you know I can't do it?"

"Don't I care about you? ”

"Then thank you," Lin Moran smiled, "I'm not afraid of heaven and earth, I'm afraid of pain, even if it's a competition, I'm afraid that I won't be able to win glory for our school, and then it will all fall on you." ”

"Then how do you say it, there are powerful people outside, there are people outside the world, and there are heavens outside the sky. ”

Lin Moran looked at Meng Zimeng and sneered in his heart.

She said this, but she didn't want Meng Zimeng to think about anything else during this journey.

Mu Rongrong and Meng Zimeng sat in a row, talking and laughing.

"What's wrong with my sister?"

She dropped the glass and got glass shards on her foot, so she probably couldn't wear high heels. Mencius said.

Mu Rongrong was happy in her heart.

"Now Li Qian is going to be discouraged, you don't know how partial Li Qian is, obviously the two of us made it up together, and he also opened a small stove for her alone. ”

Now her image and temperament will be greatly reduced, Lin Moran can't win the award, not to mention how happy she is in her heart.

When I arrived at my destination, I went to the inside of the TV station, where there was a special dressing room and waiting room.

This is a recording, not a live broadcast, so the editing in the later stage plays an important role, and those who bring money will get extra attention.

When I was in the waiting room, a person in charge came over and said: "This competition is very concerned by the society, and it can be regarded as a selection of reserve troops, everyone who can enter the finals is very good, no matter what the outcome is, I wish everyone the good results they are looking forward to!"

There was a round of applause.

A total of 10 people entered the finals.

A big ones accounted for four, Lin Moran, Mu Rongrong, Meng Zimeng and Jing Li.

Lin Moran was a little familiar with the name Jingli, but she forgot where she had heard it.

While waiting, Jing Li sat next to him, "I heard that you are in the same bedroom as Mencius?"

Lin Moran paused for a moment and nodded.

"Yes. ”

"Then stay away from Xiang Xuan," Jing Li advised, "I guess it won't be long before you move out like me." ”

Lin Moran suddenly recalled that Su Tingting said half of what she said at that time, and the roommate who had moved away was Jing Li.

"You're ......"

"Yes, I just lived for more than a week and then moved out," Jing Li glanced at her secretly, "You and I are doing this for your good." ”

Lin Moran: "......"

"Can I ask you how you moved out?"

Jing Li glanced around, then approached Lin Moran and said in Lin Moran's ear, "Xiang Xuan is a lesbian." ”

“......”

Lin Moran was stunned for a while and didn't speak.

She thought it was a private conflict between Jing Li and Xiang Xuan, anyway, where there are women, there is war, and they both have their own careful thoughts, and it is not impossible to smear blacks behind their backs.

But I didn't expect this to be involved?

Jing Li asked, "Is she moving out now and not living in the dormitory?"

"yes. ”

"She's sharing a house with someone outside," said Jingli, "I've seen it, maybe I'll go back to live when it's time to break up, and you'll have a snack then." ”

Jing Li looked at the surprise on Xia Ranran's face, "You don't know about this, aren't you very good with Liu Yiyi, she didn't ...... with you?"

When she said this, she suddenly paused, and then she thought of the incident between Liu Yiyi and Lin Moran.

"I'm sorry. ”

Jing Li's words made Lin Moran ignore the pain in his feet, and when he came back to his senses, the palms of his feet began to hurt again.

The lottery determines the order of appearance, and after a round of drawing, the number plate is issued.

Lin Moran's appearance number plate is 6.

The number plate in the middle, she is relatively polished.

The questions are also decided by lottery.

When the first contestant went up and won the third question, Lin Moran was stunned when he saw the question.

This question, she has seen.

Maybe it was because of the sea of questions that Li Qian gave her during this time that had an effect, and she was able to find the exact same original question.

If only she had drawn this question.

However, the second, third, and fourth questions ......

She felt more and more that something was wrong.

She had read all the topics on the big screen in the waiting room, and even wrote a speech for Li Qian to help her revise, and repeated it several times.

Even if Lin Moran has a good psychological quality, she suddenly realized a possibility at this time.

That's the question of Li Qian.

There was no Li Qian in the judges' seats.

The hand at her side curled up.

On the premise of knowing the topic in advance, she only needs to speak the memorized manuscript fluently to get a high score.

But......

"Number six, Mu Xiaoxiao. ”

Lin Moran still sat in his seat and did not move.

The radio was broadcast again, and a baby-faced girl next to her pushed Lin Moran, "Call you." ”

Lin Moran came back to his senses and stood up.

Wearing a pair of flat shoes and carrying high heels, she endured the pain and came to the entrance.

The director said to her: "After the person in front of you goes down, you will go down this road." ”

"Okay. ”

"Let's change my shoes first. The director frowned and glanced at Lin Moran a little unapprovingly.

Lin Moran didn't explain, "Okay." ”

She stooped over and sat on a shoe-changing bench and changed into high heels.

As soon as you put on the high heels, you can feel the pain of the heart.

She frowned, suppressing the pain.

"Director, Title ......"

Before going on the field, Lin Moran wanted to speak and stopped.

This is a game, no matter how much the pre-game promotion of "friendship first, competition second", only those who are not good at the level will not want to win.

She wants to win.

If she says that she has been approved, she will be disqualified from the competition, and she will be involved in the investigation, regardless of the outcome, so that the months of hard work will be in vain.

The director asked, "What?"

Lin Moran smiled, "It's nothing. ”

She walked up on her legs.

Judging from the posture of walking, it is impossible to see that the soles of her feet are already a bloody mess at this time.

Meng Zimeng, who was sitting in the waiting room, saw Lin Moran's posture and couldn't help but stare at Lin Moran's feet.

How can it be?

Obviously I shed so much blood in the morning, and now I am walking on the ground in high heels?

This kind of accident is just the beginning.

Lin Mora's scores in the first two rounds were very stable, becoming the top three and directly entering the final round.

And Meng Zimeng is a pity that he stopped in fourth place.

Lin Moran and Meng Zimeng met backstage, and Meng Zimeng deliberately handed over a tissue, "Xiaoxiao, seeing that you are nervous and sweating, take a good rest, I hope you can still stand up." ”

Lin Moran hooked the corners of his lips, "I've borrowed your good words." ”

In the end, it was physical overload, and when it came to the third round, Lin Moran was unstable on his feet, stumbled a little, and although he used a very witty strain to get around, he still only won the second place.

After it was over, Lin Moran did not leave immediately.

Her feet were too much to handle.

In the last minute just now, it was all hard to hold on.

She sat alone in the lounge hall, looking at the people coming and going, all of them were unfamiliar faces, and there was no one to ask for help.

She opened the app and picked up some medicine for treating trauma at a nearby pharmacy and waited for it to be delivered.

"I've been standing for a day, my leg hurts, can you carry me?"

There was a couple in front of him, the boy was tall, and the girl was an intern at the TV station, Lin Moran had just seen it backstage.

"Okay, I'll go back and press it for you. ”

The boy really leaned down and carried the girl on his back.

Lin Moran glanced at his feet, and felt a little aggrieved in his heart.

Sure enough, if there is no comparison, there is no harm.

Women are fragile and have a comparative heart.

Others have someone to accompany them when they are vulnerable, but she doesn't.

Even if she was treating a wound, she had to wait for the delivery man to bring the medicine.

She felt that her life was really a failure.

The delivery man arrived quickly, she took the bag containing the medicine, signed, and took off her shoes directly to treat the wound on the soles of her feet.

The injury to her foot was worse than she had imagined.

The shoes were stained with blood.

A staff member passed by and exclaimed in surprise, "Oh my God, your foot hurts?"

"Then you were still wearing high heels when you competed just now, don't you hurt?"

"Oh my God, you're so good, you can still go on stage and win awards after you're like this!"

"It's not convenient for you to be here, go to the lounge, I'll pour you a glass of water." ”

Lin Moran also felt that it was not good for him to deal with his wounds in the hall, so he agreed, and slowly walked to the nearest lounge.

She took out iodine and cotton swabs to sterilize.

Her eyebrows furrowed tightly in pain, and the muscles in her body tensed.

The door was pushed open from the outside, Lin Moran didn't look up, and on the coffee table as far as he could see, there was a hand on a glass glass.

Lin Moran: "Thank you. ”

"Tsk, I really underestimated you. ”

The man's voice sounded overhead, "Liang Hao?" Lin Moran raised his head suddenly, and the man stood against the back of the sofa and raised his eyebrows.

"Why are you here?"

Liang Hao said: "Go to your school cafeteria for breakfast and listen to your roommate." ”

"Su Tingting?"

"Hmm. ”

"Did you accompany Teacher Huang to the cafeteria?" Lin Moran asked.

"How do you know I'm accompanying Huang Jiawen?"

"I have an itinerary. Lin Moran said, "Jing Shengman's assistant will send me your itinerary on time and on time every day. ”

She paused, "Then I'm curious, why would Jing Shengman stop you from being with Huang Jiawen? Even if there is a generation gap between the two of you, it won't be her turn to be a stepmother, when did you offend Jing Shengman?"

"It's not that I offended her, it's that she offended me. Liang Hao's voice said coldly.

"Offended by what?"

Lin Moran frowned, her painful hands were shaking a little when she was holding a cotton swab to deal with the wound on her foot.

Liang Hao suddenly stretched out his hand and took the front of Lin Moran's hand over.

"Don't you know curiosity kills cats?" Liang Hao glanced at her.

Lin Moran simply drew another cotton swab, "I know, but I'm not a cat." ”

"Yes, you are not a cat, cats have nine lives, you only have one life," Liang Hao said, "think about it, if you really want to know, I will tell you." ”

Lin Moran: "...... That's it. ”

Liang Hao sneered at Lin Moran's boldness, "Give it to me." ”

"What?" Lin Moran didn't react for a while.

Liang Hao's fingers hooked the plastic bag containing the medicine, and he raised his hand to hold Lin Moran's ankle.

"Eh......"

Lin Moran subconsciously shrank back, and Liang Hao had already held his ankle and put it on his thigh.

"Help you with your wounds. ”

"No, I can ...... it myself"

"Don't shirk, I know you're happy to let me serve you right now. ”

Lin Moran laughed, "That's, it's rare." ”

Liang Hao's treatment of the wound was also clean and neat, Lin Moran simply didn't say anything, just gritted his teeth and endured it, the long pain was better than the short pain, and now it saved her trouble.

Liang Hao held her ankle, "There are glass slags that have not been cleaned, are there tweezers?"

Lin Moran took it out of the bag and handed it to Liang Hao.

Liang Hao poured alcohol on the tweezers to disinfect it, and asked her, "What are you going to do with this?"

Lin Moran's gaze fell on the tweezers in Liang Hao's hand, "What's the matter?"

Liang Hao didn't answer, lowered his eyelids, and seemed to be helping Lin Moran with medicine very seriously.

His eyelashes are very long, and when he lowers his head, he casts a shallow shadow under his eyes, and when he looks at people seriously, he always gives people the illusion of tenderness.

Lin Moran's heart moved, retracted his gaze, and said: "Actually, I don't have any talent for singing and dancing, I learn quickly, I forget quickly, my limbs are uncoordinated, I have been beaten and scolded by Feng Yuzhen since I was a child, and there are people who are more beautiful than me and will make the guests happy, but Feng Yuzhen has to treat me as the top card, so partial, it will naturally make some sisters look at me behind my back, and there will be some open and cheap operations." This kind of thing has not been seen once or twice since I was a child, this is the lowest magnitude. ”

She grew up in the palace scheming, are you still afraid of these?

"There are some things, if you see through them, you can't say them through, you don't report them now, you don't report them in the future, wait for it, I'll ......" As he was saying, Lin Moran suddenly gasped, "Liang Hao,!"

Lin Moran, who was in pain this time, trembled all over, and as soon as her brain was empty, she scolded.

Liang Hao's hand was really not a little serious, and the tweezers pinched the glass slag embedded in the meat and threw it into the garbage bag next to him, "Come on, when, I'll wait." ”

Lin Moran: "......"

She reacted for a few seconds before realizing what Liang Hao was talking about, and scolded: "You are really a hooligan." ”

"You put the cart before the horse," Liang Hao pressed a cotton swab against the bleeding mouth on the soles of Lin Moran's feet, "It's what you said, not me." ”

“......”

Lin Moran stopped talking.

Liang Hao took the gauze and helped Lin Mora put on some anti-inflammatory drugs applied externally, and wrapped them in bandages, "Why don't you speak?

Lin Moran: "......"
