Chapter 121: Charismatic Skill Card
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Damn it, she lost to Zhao Min again!
Hu Xin glared at Zhou Li in annoyance. This girl was simply useless! She couldn’t even compare to a girl from the countryside. How did Zhou Li, the so-called noble lady from the Zhou family, have the cheek to boast about her piano skill to her!
Hu Xin felt deceived and turned dark without saying a word.
Zhou Li felt even more ashamed.
In the past, she basked in her immense popularity, but now she just felt the sting of humiliation.
But she had to admit that Mei Shu’s performance just now also brought a sense of immersion to her.
But how could she accept that Mei Shu was actually better than her?
She turned her head away, and Lu Yan’s smile seemed particularly glaring. Her heart tightened suddenly, and she felt a sourness in her nose, wanting to cry.
Mei Shu had already come down from the stage and walked up to her. Suddenly, Mei Shu reached out and placed her hand on Zhou Li’s shoulder. “It’s just a piano competition. No need to cry, right?”
Zhou Li turned her head abruptly, facing away from her, and her voice sounded dull, “Who, who’s crying! Which eye of yours saw me crying!”
“Alright, whatever you say.” Mei Shu removed her hand, her lips curved slightly. “Your piano skills are not bad either. If you want to compete again in the future, I’ll be happy to accompany you.”
After speaking, without waiting for Zhou Li’s response, Mei Shu directly headed towards Lu Yan’s direction.
In her mind, the system was broadcasting the message.
[Congratulations to the host for perfectly completing the task, you have gained a chance to draw a card.]
“Shouldn’t a perfect completion give me an extra card draw?”
The system seemed accustomed to her shamelessness and responded firmly word byword, [The task rewards are fixed, and the system has no authority to change them. Please draw a card.]
As soon as the voice fell, a row of blue cards appeared before her.
Mei Shu paused her steps and casually picked one with her eyes.
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the skill card “Charismatic”, with the cooldown time of one month. After activating the skill, all the people present will have an increased fondness for the host.]
“All people?” Mei Shu’s lips curled up, and her heart stirred. “This skill is interesting. Can I activate it now?”
[The host can use the skill at any time, but please be reminded that the cooldown time is relatively long, and you cannot use it again during the cooldown period.]
“In that case, I’ll activate it now.” She just wanted to see what effect the increased fondness would have.
She had a feeling that something interesting might happen.
[The “Charismatic” skill has been activated. The fondness of all the people present towards you will increase significantly. You can continue to increase their fondness through verbal and non-verbal actions. The effect lasts for one minute.]
“One minute? System, you’re becoming more and more stingy!” Mei Shu couldn’t help but comment.
The system pretended not to hear her.
Mei Shu thought for a moment, and her mischievous side took over again. She suddenly stood in the aisle of the audience seats, raised her leg, and kicked the empty chair next to her.
Immediately, there was a loud noise, and the iron chair was directly kicked to pieces.
Everyone stared at this scene in astonishment, including the principal and the teachers.
Surprisingly, none of the teachers were angry; instead, their eyes brightened.
The principal praised, “Mei Shu must exercise regularly. She has both superb strength and piano skills. She’s truly talented!”
“Yes, yes! She’s like a heroine!”
“Mei Shu is really our class’ student. This is not something an ordinary person can do!”
Other students, who were still in shock, began to praise Mei Shu endlessly.
“This is too cool! What should I do? I feel like my heart has been captured by her. From now on, she will be my goddess!”
“Mei Shu is so cool! Only she deserves to be the school belle of our school!”
“Mei Shu, look at me!”
The continuous screams filled the air.
Mei Shu raised an eyebrow with a subtle expression.
It seemed she won the bet just now.
This skill was really useful. Even if she made a mistake, within the time limit, not only would she not be punished, but she would also receive unanimous praise!
She was feeling delighted, but suddenly she sensed two intense gazes behind her, staring at her back.
Mei Shu froze. She finally remembered what she had forgotten just now!
Embarrassedly, she turned her head back and saw Lu Yan and Li Zhen staring at her intently.
Oh no, could it be that these two already had some fondness for her, and the skill just magnified that fondness infinitely?
Could it be that these two now liked her?
She was still contemplating when Lu Yan had already come over.
Li Zhen’s expression turned cold, but he also walked towards her without backing down.
The aisle was narrow, allowing only one person to pass through. When they reached Mei Shu, both of them seemed ready to confront each other.
Mei Shu:”…” Oh no, it seemed like she had inadvertently gotten herself into trouble.
“You guys calm down, we, we are all good friends!” Mei Shu smiled awkwardly, trying to stop the brewing conflict between the two.
Lu Yan gave Li Zhen a glare, then turned to Mei Shu with a smile in his eyes, “Shu’er, you played really well today. How about having a celebration party at my place? I’ll have the family chef prepare your favorite dishes!”
Li Zhen also came forward and suggested, “What’s there to celebrate at his place? Let me treat you to a meal at a restaurant!”
