Chapter 526: Chapter 0526: Above and Below the Stage 2_1

Everyone had eaten their fill, and many were reluctant to leave the canteen, naturally gathering around to laugh and enjoy Xibao’s antics. They didn’t want to let Ye Zhengjun have him all to himself, so they took turns holding him. Thankfully, Xibao was not shy and could make anyone burst into laughter no matter who was holding him.

The performing arts troupe needed to continue rehearsing that night, so they quickly filed out one after another.

They arrived in groups and left in droves.

Bai Xue lagged behind, and Chen Chen and Mi Xiaoli tactfully chose not to accompany her, fearing her anger. After all, they’d been the ones stirring things up when Bai Xue started showing interest in Lu Jiang, even going as far as secretly probing for information on her behalf in their private moments.

However, Yang Fengying was a few steps behind, walking almost alongside her. Her voice was soft, barely above a whisper. "Did you see? She’s younger than you, more beautiful than you, and she has a darling son. It’s a happy family. Smarten up and let go of the ideas you’ve been harboring. If anyone asks, say it was all a misunderstanding and a joke. Say you never had any such intentions."

Although Bai Xue was still single, she was already twenty-four years old, while Feng Qingxue seemed to be two or three years younger than her.

Bai Xue hissed back in a low voice, "Yang Fengying, I don’t need your insincere kindness!"

"Bai Xue, don’t forget your place because of your looks!" Yang Fengying sneered in response. "If it weren’t for our company leader’s protection, you would have been devoured and stripped bare by those with ill intentions long ago. Where would your current glory be then? You’re not a bad person, and you’ve never harmed anyone, which is why I’m telling you this. Don’t be too greedy, it’s better to know your own limits."

After saying this, Yang Fengying walked briskly away, giving the impression that she hadn’t noticed their company’s leader following behind them. She left Bai Xue standing alone, her face pale.

"Yang Fengying is right." The company leader stepped forward with a cold gaze at her distraught niece. They were now in a deserted area, so she lowered her voice without any hesitation, "Think for yourself, don’t take others’ kindness for a donkey’s liver and lungs! You’ve only met Commander Lu once, you don’t understand what kind of person he is, his background or experiences. Who do you think you’re fooling with such a desperate expression? Don’t tell me, you fell head over heels for him at first sight."

Love at first sight does have a follow up, or rather a deeper impression forms the more you glance. Then there comes the opportunity to understand. As for those who can’t take their eyes off the beauty she’d seen, thinking they had deep feelings, she called it a load of bull!

"Aunt..." Bai Xue stamped her foot, she liked him. The moment she saw Lu Jiang, she knew her heart had fallen.

He was so handsome, so tall and authoritative. Every word, every action was captivating, the perfect embodiment of her ideal partner.

The company leader jabbed her forehead fiercely and hissed, "Bai Xue, I warn you one last time. No matter how good others are, if they’re not yours, don’t harbor foolish hopes. Lu Jiang started as a foot soldier, clawing his way up through life-and-death situations to achieve what he has today. What you’ve seen is just his successful side. Simply put, you just want to reap where you have not sown. What you’re attracted to is not his appearance, but his accomplishments. You think he is the youngest, most handsome, and most promising among the successful generals there, so you cover your selfish desires with a beautiful veil, calling it admiration. Now let me ask you, if Commander Lu were not a general, but just a common soldier, would you still feel the same way?"
