The Movie Queen's Demon Sect Leader [Transmigration] GL - Chapter 10
Luo Xuange finally found her room number after several turns, and upon entering, she was pleasantly surprised to find Meng Xiaomeng already there.
As she entered, she saw Meng Xiaomeng making her bed.
There were a total of four beds here, indicating it was a four-person room. She just wondered who the other two would be.
The moment Meng Xiaomeng saw Luo Xuange, she stopped what she was doing and happily scurried over to Luo Xuange: “Xuange, you’re back!”
“Mm.” Luo Xuange was also quite happy. She had a good impression of Meng Xiaomeng. The girl was simple-minded and kind-hearted, easy to get along with.
When Luo Xuange entered the room, she realized that the bed Meng Xiaomeng had just made was hers. Luo Xuange’s fondness for Meng Xiaomeng increased significantly. She immediately decided that she would protect this little sister!
Meng Xiaomeng saw Luo Xuange staring at her bed. Meng Xiaomeng walked over and patted her chest: “Xuange, don’t worry about it. In my heart, you’re like my little sister. Don’t worry, I’ll always take care of you!”
“…” Sect Leader Luo was internally conflicted. She had just been about to treat Meng Xiaomeng as a little sister to protect, but she hadn’t expected Meng Xiaomeng to treat her as her little sister.
“Xiaomeng, how old are you?” Luo Xuange decided to settle this with age.
Meng Xiaomeng answered while helping Luo Xuange make the bed: “I’m twenty-one.”
“Oh, then you’re one year older than me.” Whether in her past life or as the original owner, Luo Xuange was twenty years old. So, based on age, Sect Leader Luo unequivocally became the younger sister.
Meng Xiaomeng became even more excited upon hearing this: “Yes, yes! So you have to call me ‘Sister from now on!”
“Sister Xiaomeng?” Luo Xuange tried calling out hesitantly.
Meng Xiaomeng suddenly exclaimed excitedly: “Ahhh! Xuange, say it again!”
“…” Sect Leader Luo decided not to bother with this crazy person. Seeing that Meng Xiaomeng had made the bed, Luo Xuange took her clothes and went to the bathroom: “I’m going to wash up first.”
She left Meng Xiaomeng immersed in the joy of having gained a little sister.
While Luo Xuange was showering, she could faintly hear arguing from the room outside, besides the sound of the water.
Luo Xuange frowned slightly. Had the new roommates had a dispute with Meng Xiaomeng?
Inside the room, Meng Xiaomeng was sitting there tidying her clothes when a roommate suddenly entered. Meng Xiaomeng recognized her as Jiang Yihan, who had played the flute today.
Being a small fan of Jiang Yihan, Meng Xiaomeng enthusiastically went up to greet her.
However, Jiang Yihan gave her a cold glance, then looked at the beds numbered twenty and twenty-one.
Luo Xuange’s bed, number twenty-one, was already made, and its position was further inside, offering relatively more privacy.
So, Jiang Yihan went forward and swapped the number tags of the two beds.
Meng Xiaomeng saw this and became angry. She stepped forward to block Jiang Yihan but was accidentally pushed to the ground by Jiang Yihan.
Meng Xiaomeng was a bit weak, but not so much that she’d cry from being pushed. She immediately prepared to fight back, but in the process of arguing with Jiang Yihan, she successfully got reduced to tears by Jiang Yihan’s retorts.
Luo Xuange emerged from the bathroom, wiping her wet hair.
Seeing tears on Meng Xiaomeng’s face and her own neatly made bed now a mess, her face immediately darkened.
The bed was messed up by Meng Xiaomeng, who thought to herself: Since I can’t win against you, I’ll mess up the quilt on the bed. Even if you want to sleep, you’ll have to make the bed again. Hmph, you can’t get away with taking advantage like this.
Jiang Yihan was startled to see Luo Xuange come out. She suddenly remembered that Luo Xuange was contestant number twenty-one, and the bed she had tried to claim was Luo Xuange’s.
During the competition today, she had already noticed that Luo Xuange was a formidable opponent. She hadn’t expected Luo Xuange to change her performance from the flute to the hand ocarina, which put her at a disadvantage in comparison.
She hadn’t expected such a coincidence; they were now roommates. For the next three weeks, she and Luo Xuange were likely in for a tough battle.
Luo Xuange also hadn’t expected it to be Jiang Yihan outside. The hostile gaze she had felt at the competition today probably came partly from Jiang Yihan.
“Hello, I’m Jiang Yihan, number twenty.” Jiang Yihan was the first to greet Luo Xuange.
Luo Xuange gave her a fleeting glance, then turned to the quietly sniffling Meng Xiaomeng and asked.
“What’s wrong?”
“Wuwu… Xuange, she insisted on swapping places with you. I wouldn’t let her, and then we argued.” Meng Xiaomeng had unlocked a special skill: downplaying her grievances.
Luo Xuange nodded, then said to Jiang Yihan: “Oh, go ahead and swap.”
Jiang Yihan had expected Luo Xuange to be as unyielding as Meng Xiaomeng, but she hadn’t expected Luo Xuange to agree to swap places after just one question to Meng Xiaomeng.
This little drama began quietly and ended inexplicably. Soon after, another roommate arrived.
Meng Xiaomeng quietly told Luo Xuange: “That’s contestant Bai Liu, number forty-five. She performed singing today.”
“Mm, her voice has a lot of soul,” Luo Xuange whispered back to Meng Xiaomeng. Then, after Bai Liu went to the bathroom, the two crawled into their beds and went to sleep.
From beginning to end, Bai Liu did not exchange any words with Luo Xuange or Meng Xiaomeng. Jiang Yihan proactively greeted her, but she only responded lukewarmly, showing no intention of getting closer.
Luo Xuange lay down on the bed, her mind in a jumble. Memories of her past life and her current self intertwined, making her feel disoriented.
Meng Xiaomeng had intended to discuss tomorrow’s competition with Luo Xuange, but she found that Luo Xuange had fallen asleep as soon as her head hit the pillow.
Jiang Haixi rushed to finish filming Qingqiu today. An Ruoshui turned down the wrap-up party, intending to go home and rest for a while, but then she received a call from her elder brother.
Upon arriving at the company, she found her brother watching a video of Luo Xuange’s competition from today.
An Junfeng saw his sister arrive and shifted the computer screen towards her.
“Look who I found in the audition.”
“Brother, you told me she was an orphan, and you also gave her a huge sum of money. Why does she always look like she’s struggling to make ends meet whenever I see her?” An Ruoshui had already planned to ask her brother about Luo Xuange’s true situation when she had a moment. Since her brother mentioned Luo Xuange today, she simply went ahead and asked.
An Junfeng was silent for a moment, stammering and seemingly reluctant to speak, but he couldn’t stand An Ruoshui staring at him with the look of someone interrogating a criminal.
Swallowing, An Junfeng quietly explained to his sister: “Actually, we took advantage of her situation.”
An Ruoshui’s beautiful phoenix eyes narrowed slightly: “What do you mean?”
“I had someone investigate Luo Xuange. During that time, two little orphans she knew coincidentally had an accident and fell seriously ill.
I found her when she was desperate and promised that if she agreed to marry you, I would find the best professional doctors to treat the two children, and I would give her a huge sum of money.
But she only wanted enough money to cover the medical expenses for the two little orphans. She herself didn’t take any benefit from our An family.” An Junfeng nervously revealed the secret he had kept for several months.
An Junfeng knew his sister’s personality. Previously, every time his sister saw Luo Xuange, she would look down on her, because his sister genuinely despised the girl who seemed to be vain and willing to sell herself for money.
But the truth was, their An family had taken advantage of her plight. To put it harshly, they had coerced Luo Xuange into marriage using medical expenses.
Indeed, after hearing her brother’s explanation, An Ruoshui silently sat there, quietly watching the replay of the competition on the screen.
No wonder she was so cold to me yesterday. Perhaps in her heart, I’m just someone who abuses their family’s wealth and power to coerce others, An Ruoshui thought with a hint of sadness and disappointment.
