Chapter 460: Her Stunning Performance, His Surprise (6)

In fact, Shen Nian’s performance had even captured the attention of many people backstage.

Meng Sijia, who was off to the side and already prepared to go on, had expected to see Shen Nian humiliate herself at any moment. But she never saw the disgrace she was waiting for. All she heard was wave after wave of cheers.

"Why is this happening? Didn’t you say you’d already taken care of it?"

Meng Sijia ground her teeth and glared at the person beside her.

"I... I really did! I tampered with that strange outfit of hers. It was supposed to fall apart after just a few movements. It was guaranteed to utterly humiliate her on stage."

"Then tell me, why is she perfectly fine? She’s moved around so much, yet that outfit is still completely intact! Not only has she not been humiliated, she’s even earning all this applause!"

How could Meng Sijia not be furious? Such a perfect opportunity to see Shen Nian utterly humiliated, and it had been completely wasted! Moreover, the thunderous applause that had always been reserved for her was now being stolen by Shen Nian!

It was even more thunderous than the applause she usually received.

Even without going out there, she could imagine what a grand spectacle it must be.

"I... I don’t know why this is happening either! I swear I did everything right!"

The person beside Meng Sijia was also completely bewildered. She had checked her work several times, so why was this so completely different from what she had imagined?

"Useless! Absolutely useless trash!"

Meng Sijia was seething, but at this point, there was nothing she could do. Shen Nian’s act was almost over, and it would be her turn to go on stage soon. Beyond muttering a few curses, she was completely powerless.

Onstage, Shen Nian’s performance was reaching its finale. Before beginning her final, show-stopping magic trick, Shen Nian paused for a moment, then began walking toward the audience in front of the stage.

The audience had long been completely captivated by Shen Nian, and they were eagerly anticipating her next move.

So, when they saw Shen Nian actually walking toward the audience, their gazes followed her, wondering what she was planning to do, and what her final, show-stopping magic trick could be.

Shen Nian had already spotted Lu Cheng in the crowd. Now, she walked straight toward him, her eyes fixed on him.

Step by step, her gait was steady, her gaze unwavering.

Lu Cheng had been watching Shen Nian from the very beginning, not missing a single moment. Naturally, he now saw her gaze fix on him.

He knew Shen Nian was looking at him, and that she was walking toward him.

Lu Cheng didn’t know what Shen Nian was about to do, but no matter what it was, it didn’t stop him from keeping his eyes locked on her.

"What is she going to do?"

The audience members had all seen her move. Her performance clearly wasn’t over, so why was she walking into the crowd?

"Hey, she stopped!"

"Isn’t that Lu Cheng, the Group Three leader? Why did she stop in front of him?"

"Well, she is Mr. Lu’s wife, isn’t she? What’s so strange about stopping in front of him?"

"It wouldn’t be strange normally, but she’s in the middle of her performance! Hey, look—she’s doing something!"

Lu Cheng’s seat was in the first few rows, not far from the stage, so it didn’t take Shen Nian long to reach him.

When she came to a stop before Lu Cheng, Shen Nian paused. Feeling every eye in the room on her, she smiled at him, lightly waved a hand to cover her mouth, and when she moved it away, a beautiful, fresh rose was held between her lips.
