Jiang Ying knew she couldn't hide it anymore, so she honestly said, "Someone put a thumbtack in my dancing shoe. I didn't realize it until I got on stage, but it was too late."
She stroked her mother's hand and forced a smile, "Mom, it's okay, don't worry!"
"Jiang Ying, how did you do on the exam? Do you have any hope?"
Jiang Ying smiled and shook her head, but the smile did not reach her eyes.
Nearly half of the ginseng players have competed, and there is already someone whose level is far higher than hers. Meng Yao has found a substitute whose level is also higher than hers. If she is lucky, it will be a draw. There may not be someone better than her in the second half, so the outcome of the game is very hanging in the balance.
"What's going on? Tell me quickly. Is there any way to save it?"
Lin Xianxian looked anxious. After all, she was an outsider, and no matter how capable she was, she couldn't tell that Meng Yao used a substitute.
Not to mention her, even the teacher didn't notice it. After all, the stage was high and far away, and it was just a blurry mass at first glance.
Although the judges in the front row could see clearly, they didn't know who was who and had no idea that a stand-in was used.
"Well, come with me, and we'll ask Aunt Gu and see what she says."
Lin Xianxian and Dong Su'e held Jiang Ying's arm with one hand and found Gu Wanyun's office.
"Now that you're here, I was looking for you!"
Gu Wanyun was in a hurry and her words were like a machine gun. She didn't even have time to eat.
"Jiang Ying, I just made some inquiries for you. Apart from Chen Yanen who is sure to be admitted to the art troupe, your and Meng Yao's rankings have not yet been decided, but there is a high possibility that they will be above you."
She looked puzzled. "This dancer named Meng Yao is very professional. She performed so skillfully."
Jiang Ying angrily said, "The Meng Yao on the stage is fake. She hired a stand-in. She doesn't even like practicing. Her performance is usually ranked last. She almost fell down during the group dance just now!"
Jiang Ying's eyes were bloodshot. For the first time, she felt unfair. She had worked hard to perfect every move, but in the end, she was compared with the worst student, Meng Yao. This was really hard for her to swallow.
"Is that so? Do you have any evidence?"
If he was a stand-in, then that's right. No wonder he performed so poorly during the group dance.
"I have no evidence. The students who competed with her saw it clearly, and they said the four people dancing were not Meng Yao at all!"
Jiang Ying shook her head. There was no definite evidence unless the substitute dancer was found.
"Can you...can you get together with a few classmates to report her? We have to fight for her no matter what!"
Gu Wanyun said seriously, "If you can't report her, you won't even be able to join the dance troupe, let alone the art troupe. If someone else shows up this afternoon, you'll have no hope at all!"
Lin Xianxian fell into deep thought. Meng Yao was usually a fierce person. Why would those female classmates offend her when they saw that they had no hope?
Jiang Ying also felt hopeless, but she still had to give it a try until the very last moment. "Okay, Master, I'll give it a try!"
Jiang Ying said this and ran away limping.
Dong Su'e was almost in tears. She hadn't expected Jiang Ying to encounter such a terrible thing. "Xianxian, what do you think we should do? Is Jiang Ying definitely going to be eliminated?"
Lin Xianxian didn't care what Dong Su'e said at all. She was thinking about how to disqualify Meng Yao from the selection. Suddenly, the pale and thin Yuan Jinhua appeared in her mind.
She ran away, "Mom, wait here for me, I'll bring someone over!"
