Chapter 231: Chapter 231 Try a Little Harder!
Sheng Tang agreed.
The dress was dark red, with numerous lace trimmings that could make a slender girl look twice her size.
Sheng Tang was already chubby; wearing it would make her look even more chubby.
She glanced at it, realizing that renting the dress also took some thought, after all, there were so many.
She didn’t complain, but silently prayed in her heart: "Either too big or too small, so I can change it."
Unfortunately, it was just her size, neither too big nor too small.
Sheng Tang walked out, Qin Lin looked at her, first noticing her face, and was very satisfied; then seeing her figure, he frowned deeply, as if it hurt his eyes.
"Senior, your expression is a bit hurtful." Sheng Tang lifted the hem of her skirt and came over.
Qin Lin, as if having a toothache, said: "What a waste of such a beautiful face, can’t you lose some weight?"
Sheng Tang: "I’m already trying hard."
"Try harder!" Qin Lin lamented.
This senior, his words were blunt and he was quite capable of chatting.
Considering he praised Sheng Tang’s face, she decided not to get petty with him and earnestly said: "Alright, I’ll try harder."
Qin Lin nodded.
This time for the rehearsal, Sheng Tang performed in the dress.
Her manner was still graceful.
Qin Lin had no concept of these things before, but once Sheng Tang got on stage, she could put the host and other performing classmates to shame.
Without professional training, they were indeed not as good as her.
Her every gesture, every smile was exceptionally elegant and charming... if only she were slimmer, it would be even better.
Qin Lin was very picky for a while, but seeing Sheng Tang’s brilliant singing skills, interpreting a song with much emotion, he was slightly satisfied.
After this rehearsal, Sheng Tang left the backstage and returned to the classroom.
The class president was distributing passes to everyone.
On New Year’s Day, the school would invite parents to visit. Normally, parents couldn’t easily enter the school.
This time, the passes were unlimited; each class had hundreds, and the class president asked everyone to take two extra ones so they wouldn’t lose them and be unable to enter.
Sheng Tang took six passes.
When it was Jiang Baocu’s turn, she only took one.
Sheng Tang glanced at her.
Jiang Baocu smiled: "My aunt might come..."
Her smile had a bitter and reserved look, and carried an unwillingness for Sheng Tang to inquire further, so Sheng Tang wisely kept quiet.
The next day, S City had rare clear weather, with no wind.
As long as there was no wind and sunlight in deep winter, it could bring out the warmth of early spring.
Sheng Tang walked in the campus wearing a down jacket, feeling a bit hot.
By the time they arrived, it was already ten in the morning, and the parking spaces near the school were full.
Sheng Tang’s mother had to park the car far away, about a hundred meters away, and then led the family walking over.
Her brother was quite excited: "Sis, your school’s gate is so tall."
Huishi’s school gate was very impressive, comparable to some prestigious universities.
"Yes, it is." Sheng Tang said.
She glanced around and saw Jiang Baocu not far away, accompanied by a fashionable-looking woman.
Sheng Tang called her.
Sheng Family members had met Jiang Baocu before and greeted her warmly.
Standing next to Jiang Baocu was a woman around twenty-four or twenty-five years old, overly youthful, not looking much like her aunt, so Sheng Tang hesitated to greet her.
Jiang Baocu introduced: "This is my aunt’s secretary, Miss Zheng."
Miss Zheng shook hands with Sheng Tang’s parents and exchanged a few pleasant words.
Thinking that Jiang Baocu’s aunt was likely too busy with work to come, Sheng Tang pulled Jiang Baocu over and invited her to join their family.
