Reincarnation: From Opressed Missy to Campus Belle

187 Who is the mastermind? [one]



An Xiulan’s family went back after the event and she was again alone in her room. Twinkle was doing her ten-step skincare routine while she was lying on the bed, staring at the ceiling and sighing.

She was doing some reflection.

Actually, she was doing a lot of reflection.

Whenever she was alone and everything around would be silent, her deep thinking takes her far away. This was the reason why she always kept on talking. She was afraid of silence.

Currently, she was thinking about how tough and hard the contest was.

Although she was in the top five, she still felt surreal. It was almost unreal for her. What if it was a beautiful dream and one morning she would wake up and reach her broken and deserted courtyard in the Duke’s house?

This question came to her mind every day and each time she tackled this question with utmost positivity..

If the life that she was living was a dream, then she would love to live this life in her dream to the fullest.

Since her thoughts were running wild, she decided to take a walk in the garden. She had eaten a lot and it would be better to take a walk before going to bed.

When she reached the garden of the hotel, she realised that she was not the only stressed contestant, someone else was taking a stroll in the garden too. However, she tried her best to avoid Ji Mao’er.

Thus, two people were walking in the garden without talking to each other.

After a few minutes, An Xiulan heard a loud shreik. She turned her head to find Ji Mao’er sitting on the ground crying. She didn’t think much and ran to see what had happened.

“What happened? Why did you scream?”An Xiulan asked in concern. She didn’t think that this girl was pretending to be crying. However, she couldn’t keep her guard down. Twinkle had told her how evil Ji Mao’er could be and she had seen with her own eyes what this girl was capable of doing.

Ji Mao’er pointed her finger at the ground where someone had dug the iron nails with her pointed side up.

An Xiulan’s eyes widened as she looked at the thing hidden by the green grass. She couldn’t believe that someone could be this evil to destroy someone else. She looked at Ji Mao’er toe which was bleeding. What if the iron nail had dug into Ji Mao’er instead of peeling the toe?

“Do not tell me that you think I did this to myself, ” Ji Mao’er said, pointing her finger at An Xiulan.

“I know you did not do this, ” An Xiulan replied. “You are full of yourself. I don’t think you can hurt yourself just to prove a point.”

“You think I’m selfish?” Ji Mao’er asked angrily.

“You aren’t selfless either, ” An Xiulan rebuked.

Ji Mao’er stopped pointing fingers at her and began crying pitifully. Actually, she wasn’t pretending to be crying. She was the only daughter of her parents and she was spoiled and pampered to Heaven. For the first time, she had been hurt and her toe was even bleeding. This was a kind of big deal to her.

“Stop crying, ” An Xiulan said. “It doesn’t even hurt that much.”

Ji Mao’er looked at her angrily while crying, “Have you seen how much blood I have lost?” Initially, she was avoiding looking at the blood on her feet but when she looked at the bloody feet to show An Xiulan how much it hurt, her eye fell on the blood and she fainted at the sight of the blood.

In the end, An Xiulan had no option but to act as a valiant Heroine and pick Ji Mao’er to bring her to the latter’s room. When she reached the hotel room, she saw Jiang Yao holding her iPad who raise their brow when she saw An Xiulan bringing an unconscious Ji Mao’er.

“Yaoyao, can you call the Madam Li?” An Xiulan asked. “She fainted seeing the blood on her toe.”

Jiang Yao looked at the girl’s toe that was bleeding badly and gasped. “Oh my God, what happened to her? How did she hurt her feet? Is she fine?”

“I don’t know, ” An Xiulan replied. “I was strolling in the garden when I heard her scream. I found some nails placed in the garden with the clear purpose of hurting someone’s feet. I’m badly shaken. What if she had placed her feet on the nail? How would she wear the heel? Worse, she would have been disqualified from the final round before it even began.”

“Although she is evil, I really feel bad for her, ” Jiang Yao’s beautiful face showed concern. “Take her to the room. I will call Madam Li and the event doctor to the room.”

Later, Jiang Yao appeared with Madam Li and the doctor while An Xiukan was wiping blood from the girl’s feet.

“How did this happen?” Madam Li asked An Xiulan. These days, schemes against girls have been increasing at a scary speed. They had been trying to find which girl had been daring enough to do this to other girls.

An Xiulan narrated the event about how she was taking a stroll in the garden and she heard Ji Mao’er’s scream and then she quickly ran to find the girl.

“You said the nail only peeled her skin. How did she fainted?” Madam Li asked, “Was the nail laced with poison or something?”

“Her vitals are okay, “The doctor said. “She might have fainted out of shock.”

“You girls can go back to your rooms, ” Madam Li said. “Jiang Yao, why don’t you share the room with the other girl today? The nurse will stay with Ji Mao’er tonight. What if she gets a fever out of shock? It’s better to be prepared.”

Jiang Yao nodded and packed her important things to leave the room. When the girls left, Madam Li looked at her assistant who appeared after the girls.

“Madam Li, I checked the footage, ” The assistant said. “I find nothing suspicious.”

Madam Li nodded. “Who is this mastermind? First, they hyped An Xiulan’s matter on the internet. Then, sent the video of Ji Moa’er ruining An Xiulan’s dress to the committee especially when any kind of recording device is banned in changing rooms. No, this girl is hurt.”
