My Scheming Little Devil-Chapter 115 Mysterious Benefactor_1
She pushed his hand away ruthlessly, covered her crying face, and left hastily.
Midway, she was suddenly lifted by Shang Jingchen at the waist, who said harshly: "Who said I’m going to marry someone else? Apart from you, I will not marry anyone else, just wait for me, I will make sure you marry into the Shang family, openly and honorably."

When Ye Lu returned to the beauty pageant training center, she noticed the contestants looking at her with strange eyes, whispering and sniggering with disdain.
"So it’s her! She usually doesn’t stand out, but who would have thought she is so crafty? Even before the contest has started, she is already desperately promoting herself, shameless."
"She has a gold master, right? Otherwise, who would dare to withdraw the swimsuit photo during voting and replace it with a sports photo. The funny thing is that after she changed the photo, her votes just kept skyrocketing. It’s clearly vote-brigading."
Ye Lu was baffled, were they talking about her?
It didn’t sound like it, she didn’t do such a thing, hmph, utterly absurd.
"Xiao Ye, you’re here, sit down, let me do your makeup. We’re taking outdoor shots today, I’ll give you a fresh and beautiful makeup look." The makeup artist Ayah rushed over enthusiastically and took Ye Lu to the makeup table.
The stylist Richie was discontented: "Hey, Ayah, why are you snatching people? I should select clothes for Xiao Ye first."
They began arguing in public, pulling Ye Lu between them like a tug of war, almost dislocating her.
What the hell was going on? Usually, these staff members wouldn’t pay much attention to her because she didn’t bribe them like the other contestants. So, her makeup was always done last, and their attitude was not particularly good. What on earth happened this time? Something was definitely off.
"What are you arguing about?" Even the head coach of the pageant appeared, pulling Ye Lu aside, her smile was hugely ingratiating, "The beauty pageant is so close, I have specially arranged training for you in the coming days. If you have any problems, you must come to me directly."
The contestants around all looked disgusted and glared angrily at Ye Lu.
Ye Lu was completely dumbfounded, what the hell had happened? Could someone please tell her?
In the end, it was a phone call from Feng Aoxue that cleared her doubts.
"Xiao Lu, be honest with me, have you recently met some sort of big shot?" Feng Aoxue’s voice was excited.
"What are you talking about? You’re my biggest big shot. Speaking of, something really strange happened today." Ye Lu told her what had happened.
"You’re seriously slow, haven’t you been paying attention to the progress of the competition? Yesterday, the contestants’ photos were posted on the official website for voting. A few hours later, your swimsuit photo was taken down and replaced with a pure sports photo, it was quite unique."
"Did that happen? Why wasn’t I notified?"
"Ah, what a pity, that swimsuit photo attracted quite a few fans. Even my brother, who’s a total homebody, voted for you. However, your votes have soared even higher, you’re already securely in the first place, haha, the award for best figure is within your grasp."
"First of all, what’s going on?" Ye Lu was completely clueless.
"I also want to know, that’s why I’m asking you. Did you land a big fish? The host wouldn’t do this on their own, whoever could force the host to violate the rules like this must be someone very powerful and influential. They are making the host bend over backwards to please you, didn’t you say your treatment was different today?
Since you don’t know who it is, it might be some rich guy who accidentally took a fancy to you and automatically became your backstage support! I don’t know if this is good or bad, but it’s definitely beneficial to your pageant. Be careful, if this person pops up and asks you to repay them, give them the bottom of your shoe, beat them to death."
