Chapter 539 - Do I look that terrible? (2/2)

...

”Meili!” Katy Blanc was excited to see Lu Meili. It was just a coincidence that she needed to ask her something.

”Hello Sis Katy. Is Aunty home?”

”She must be freshening up. Meili, I think I messed up.”

Lu Meili felt all the happiness leave her body. ”What?”

”I acted too much. Aunty must have noticed it.”

Lu Meili thought hard about it. It wouldn't be good if anything went wrong. Urgh... she must have been sick when she told Katy to do all this in one go.

”Wait a second. There's nothing wrong.”

”There's not?” Katy looked relieved.

Lu Meili put on a scheming face. ”Be a 'loving daughter' for as long as possible. It doesn't matter if she finds out that you are deliberately acting it out. Trust me, no matter what, it's a sure win.”

Katy Blanc looked at this little girl. ”Are you sure? You may not know but you look terribly evil right now.”

Lu Meili laughed. ”Of course I look evil. That's not the main point. You should have already prepared food for your mother.”

Katy sighed. ”She didn't eat it.”

”Don't worry. It might take some time.”

At this time, Lin Lihua came downstairs. The girls sat straight.

”Aunty, I was looking for y... Jeez! Aunty, did you not sleep well enough? Sis Katy, how could you not take care of aunty?”

Lin Lihua looked self-conscious. ”Do I look that terrible?”

Lu Meili looked aside shyly. ”Not... at all. Aunty is the most beautiful woman after all.”

”You little brat. Close your eyes to my momentary beauty-fail. What do you need me for?”

Lu Meili didn't mind discussing business in such a casual manner. ”About the auditions for 'Dancer of the year'. Aunty, I don't think I'm good enough.”

”But I think you are.” Lin Lihua's tone was firm, not allowing any room for negotiation.

However, Lu Meili wasn't one to give up easily. ”B-but... I can't dance. The main highlight here is the dance, right?”

Lin Lihua took a seat and looked at her, wondering what kind of tone this was. ”There's no such thing as 'I can't do it' in HL Entertainment. I don't think you can find it in the Lu family either. Don't you know that you are my niece?

My standard for you is much higher, or it would be unfair to other artists. Obviously, I cannot give you a role you absolutely can't do.”
