Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Wen Nian reached out to take it. Huang Yue took two steps forward and pretended to lose her balance. She wanted to splash hot water on Wen Nian’s face and scald her face until it was covered in blisters. It would be best if there was a scar!
Huang Yue’s smile grew uncontrollably as she thought about it. She tilted her body and flipped her hand out.
Wen Nian suddenly stood up and stood to the side. “Huang Yue, be careful!”
In the next scene, it appeared to outsiders that Wen Nian was attempting to stabilize Huang Yue. In reality, however, Wen Nian grabbed Huang Yue’s hand and pushed it towards her own body, causing the hot water to splash onto Huang Yue’s face due to the force.
“Ah! My face!”
The backstage area was filled with Huang Yue’s screams.
Wen Nian grabbed Huang Yue’s arm tightly and shouted anxiously, “Huang Yue, are you alright?”
…..
Huang Yue couldn’t care less about Wen Nian at the moment. All she could think about was the scalding pain on her face, and the possibility of disfigurement. The water was freshly boiled and had caused severe burns.
In an attempt to harm Wen Nian’s face, Huang Yue purposely didn’t mix cold water into the hot water. She was aware of just how scorching it was.
The teacher in charge of the backstage hurriedly rushed over. When he saw Huang Yue’s red face, he was also shocked. “Quick! I’ll bring you to flush with cold water first!”
Upon finding the most dependable person, Huang Yue rushed out of the backstage with the teacher. However, in her haste, her high heels caused her to stumble and fall to the ground with a loud thud. She let out a cry of pain as she sprained her ankle and her shoe’s heel broke off.
Huang Yue let out an even louder pig cry. Wen Nian almost couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
Wen Nian quickly went forward to help Huang Yue up, but as Huang Yue tried to get up while pulling Wen Nian’s arm, Wen Nian took the chance and pushed Huang Yue down instead.
Wen Nian panicked and hurriedly stood to the side. “I’m sorry, I’m sorry!
Huang Yue, I can’t pull you with my weak strength. I’d better let someone pull you.”
The teacher became even more anxious upon seeing the troublesome scene. He quickly removed Huang Yue’s high heels and set them aside before helping Huang Yue up and guiding her to the nearby bathroom.
Wen Nian was not in a hurry to go back. She followed them to watch the commotion. Some students who were already prepared for their performance followed curiously.
It was late autumn in Hai City at the end of November, and the temperature was only 8 to 9 degrees Celsius. In order to ensure the effect of the cold water, the teacher asked Huang Yue to press her face into the sink filled with cold water.
Wen Nian quickly turned on the tap. The cold water flowed onto Huang Yue’s face, causing her to feel a sharp contrast between the hot and cold temperatures.
It took Huang Yue 15 minutes to get up. Her head was wet and her face was no longer hot but stiff from the cold water.
Seeing this, the teacher planned to bring Huang Yue to the hospital outside to apply medicine. Only then did she notice the students surrounding the door.
He waved his hand and urged them to leave. “Are you all ready? What are you watching for? Hurry up and go back to prepare. If anything goes wrong in the middle of your performances, you will be the ones to feel the embarrassment!”
Huang Yue’s eyes widened like copper bells as she pointed at Wen Nian, who was standing on the side as if nothing had happened. “Teacher,” she cried out, “it was Wen Nian who ruined my face! She intentionally splashed hot water on me!”
Wen Nian stood rooted to the ground, her face filled with helplessness. “I didn’t splash you,” she protested. “You stumbled just now, and I instinctively tried to help you up. I was afraid you would sprain your ankle and couldn’t stand up. I didn’t mean to cause any harm.”
A classmate who witnessed the scene hurriedly interjected, “I saw it too. Huang Yue lost her balance while walking, and Wen Nian helped her up to prevent her from falling. I don’t know why she accused Wen Nian of splashing her with hot water.”
“I saw it too,” another classmate chimed in. “Wen Nian was only trying to be helpful. Nobody could have predicted that an accident would occur.”
“Besides,” the first classmate added, “you poured the water on yourself. How could Wen Nian have known that it was hot water?”
After listening to several student testimonies, the teacher agreed with their version of events. Huang Yue wanted to refute their claims, but she couldn’t. After all, she couldn’t admit that she had pretended to fall, could she?
Having heard the various testimonies, the teacher drew a conclusion. “Huang Yue, this seems to be an unfortunate accident. Nobody intended for this to happen, so please don’t dwell on it.”
Huang Yue was seething with anger and panted heavily, but she knew there was nothing she could do. As the water on her face dried up, she began to feel a burning sensation once again. It was only then that she realized what the most pressing matter was – she needed medical attention urgently. She hastily implored the teacher to take her to the hospital.
The situation ended as suddenly as it had started. Wen Nian turned around and offered a relieved smile.
Bai Zheng came backstage to confirm the program, and upon learning about the earlier incident, he promptly arranged for the candidates to go on stage. However, as Wen Nian entered the backstage to retrieve her bag, he quickly called out to the other members.
Bai Zheng jogged forward and greeted Wen Nian. “Wen Nian!”
Wen Nian carried her bag and heard someone calling her. She turned around and saw that it was Bai Zheng. She smiled and waved in response..
