Chapter 543: Saving the Situation
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Just as everyone thought that it was over, Lu Ning took off her jacket, revealing her school uniform.
Because it was cold backstage, they all wore an extra jacket.
The people behind were still in a daze until Lu Ning ordered again, “Mic!”
“Oh, oh, yes! Coming, coming!’
He inserted a microphone for Lu Ning and adjusted it.
“Done.”
Lin Ci held Lu Nings jacket. “Will that work?”
Lu Ning raised her hand and tidied the creases in her uniform. “Whether it’ll work or not, we can’t just abandon her.”
Lu Ning raised her hand and gestured to the people behind.
They immediately turned on her microphone.
Lu Ning took a deep breath and walked up the stairs…
The commotion below the stage grew louder and louder. The school officials were also looking at each other. This had never happened before.
They were all frowning.
Observing Kan Rou standing silently on the stage, they were all speechless.
They waited for her to speak, but she remained mute for a long time. Eventually, they could not help but sigh as they wrote something on the paper in front of them.
However, in the next moment, everyone heard another voice and stopped their pens.
“”
Her voice was gentle and her p.r.o.nunciation was perfect. Everyone looked over again.
Lu Ning walked up, step by step, and stood beside Kan Rou. Then, she faced the audience and bowed.
“”
She gave a brief explanation, as she did not want to waste everyone’s time; then, she started over.
Kan Rou looked at her, dumbstruck. She knew that she had messed up, and when she saw Lu Ning her eyes turned red in an instant.
Lu Ning gave her a comforting glance, then calmly looked towards the audience as she began.
Her p.r.o.nunciation was a delight for everyone who heard her.
It was pleasant to the ear and gave her listeners a sense of comfort.
Lu Ning looked at Kan Rou when she was about to finish one segment of the speech.
Kan Rou understood what she meant. She looked at her, listened to her. After she finished speaking, Kan Rou continued the speech right on the heels of hers.
Perhaps it was because she felt a sense of security when she saw Lu Ning, or perhaps it was because of her previous experience with Lu Ning helping her memorize the script, but at this moment, she spoke without stuttering at all.
Moreover, her p.r.o.nunciation of the words was also very standard.
Everyone on and off the stage heaved a sigh of relief.
Kan Rou tried her best to look at Lu Ning and not at the audience, so as to keep her anxiety in check
The two of them seamlessly spoke in turn for their speech.
The audience began to take videos and photos with their phones.
Huo Jinyan looked at the girl standing on-stage, who seemed to be positively glowing. He could not help but gaze at her gently.
Lu Ning looked calm and composed. Her occasional gestures made her look all the more lively.
Every move of hers was graceful. It was only then that they remembered Lu Ning had lived in the Lb family for 18 years; the composure of a young lady had long been nurtured within her. “She looks like she’s shining.”
“Indeed, she’s so beautiful.’
“And her voice is so pretty, I really love it!”
“She’s truly elegant. How amazing, I’m really attracted to her beauty.”
“How does she do it? Even when others appear calm we can tell they’re actually nervous inside, but she’s as calm as if she’s in her own house.”
“Have you forgotten? She used to be the eldest daughter of the Lt.* family. How could she have stage fright after being nurtured by Old Master Lt.]?”
“Yes, yes, yes! I’m really in love with her. This is the kind of refinement that only young ladies from big families possess. She must have been born with an irresistible charm.’
“l really wonder how the eldest daughter of the Lu family would feel if she saw her now. I’m afraid she’ll be completely inferior if we put them side by side.”
