35 『A Daughter of Nobility』 (2/2)
A smile to heartbreaking and devoid of happiness.
A bleak, sad smile that made everyone's heart ache for this little lady.
”Goodbye.”
She utters the words softly but to the ears of the judges, it was so loud and deafening with raw emotions.
She choked back a sob, her body quivering from the repressed emotion but her back still remained ramord straight.
Dignified.
Proud.
Noble.
He Shurong's eyes sparkled in delight at the surprising talent in front of her. It was so bright and breathtaking that she wonders, just why was this little girl so hesitant to act.
Without waiting for everyone to recover their wit together, she happily calls out.
”Wonderful!”
She claps lightly, a bright smile on her lips. This little girl! She's absolutely fit to have that role ah! Unfortunately, that guy rejected her offer.
Her words and subsequent actions brought the others up from their stunned state.
”Good!” He Zicheng couldn't help but follow up, wanting to praise his little cousin but couldn't for fear of upsetting the girl that wants nobody to know of her background.
”Thank you,”, Very much pleased and proud to receive such a sincere praise from her cousins, Wu Fei smiles brightly.
”Well then,” He Shurong coughs a bit, hiding the doting smile on her lips; she glances at her friends and brother.
”Everyone wouldn't have anything against my desicion, right?”
Seeing them nod their heads in confirmation, some eagerly than most, the beautiful woman smiles brightly.
”You pass!”

Wu Fei exits the room with a grace that would make anyone green from envy. A bright happy smile on her lips.
Following right after her is a shell-shocked Secretary Lin whose mind id still reeling from the emotional show his Young Miss had performed.
”How was it ah?”
Gu Susu, upon noticing the little girl's exit of the room, rushes to her and quickly questions the little girl.
A bright smile is the answer to her question.
”What do you think, hm?”Tilting her head, Wu Fei couldn't help but tease Gu Susu.
Gu Susu's eyes sparkled with delight.
”Congratulations!”

Waiting by the lounge, Wu Fei looks at the clock in boredom. Her pink phone in hand and 086, sent by a certain doting brother through his secretary, in her lap. Beside her, sat Gu Susu who is currently engrossed with a magazine.
”I hope you two didn't wait for so long?” A feminine but valiant voice suddenly spoke up.
Wu Fei turns around, her eyes sparkling with excitement. She smiles brightly upon seeing the entourage heading their way.
”Sis Shurong!”
She squeals in delight, full of excitement and delight at seeing her cousin; the little girl didn't hesitate to throw herself to the woman.
”Feifei~ Darling!”
He Shurong laughs in delight and, ignoring the sharp and envious glares thrown her way by her younger brother and her cousins, hugs the little girl tight.
”The both of you,” He Zicheng interjects as he stood beside his sister, causing the little girl to let out another speal before divin into his arms; the smug man hugs his little cousin smirking victoriously at his sister and cousins.
”Congratulations for passing.” He continues on speaking.
The two girls smiles brightly.
”This certainly calls for a celebration.” Wu Ling Xun finally couldn't take it anymore and interfered, heart full of indignation and jealousy.
What a bunch of two-faced devils! Trying to fight for the favor of his darling little sister, they are really courting death!
He Zicheng smiles, seeing that look of annoyance and hostility from his cousin's eyes. He couldn't help but continue on what he was about to say.
”And I know just the place!”

『Little Black Box』
She's... really talented. I wasn't expecting that at all. It seems like this little girl who always hid behind our backs, behind that brat's back, finally grew up ah.
She's no longer that girl who cried and threw tantrums when things won't go her way.
Feifei is finally growing up ah.
Once she's all grown up... would she still need us just as much as she does before?
-Wu Ling Xun
