The transmigrated wife is crazy and ruthless.

Chapter 47 As expected of a former courtesan

After Zhao Wanqing left due to injury, the competition quickly returned to calm.

Everyone knows that the opening remarks had a certain effect. It was said to be a dance competition, but in reality, it turned into a gambling game. Once the contestants entered the game, they had to abide by the rules and compete no matter what, or they had to withdraw from the competition.

But for the four beautiful contestants, there was no room for retreat.

Zhao Wanqing is driven by ambition and fame; she will not give up.

However, Liu Mengdie could not leave the scene because she wanted to repay the kindness of the Valley Master of the Valley of Resentment.

Qi Yushuang would not leave in order to leave the most beautiful moment in front of her beloved.

However, Qiu Ziyue, having already gone this far to fulfill Tao Ling'er's last wish, did not want to back down.

Next up was Liu Mengdie, who wore a long green dress and looked like a fresh green leaf as she slowly walked onto the stage.

As the lights dimmed and music began, Liu Mengdie started to dance gracefully.

Her dance was light and graceful, every movement full of natural beauty.

Her appearance immediately attracted everyone's attention, and people eagerly anticipated the wonderful performance of this former courtesan.

The four handsome men also turned their gazes to the stage, each waiting with different feelings for her exquisite dance.

Liu Mengdie's every step was full of rhythm, as if each step was telling a touching story.

As the music changed, her dance moves were like a butterfly fluttering among flowers, dazzling the eyes.

Every turn and gesture of hers exuded an indescribable charm, captivating everyone present.

A hint of amazement flashed in Twilight City's eyes; he had never seen such a beautiful woman.

Liu Mengdie's dance reminded him of the gentle beauty and tranquility of the water towns of Jiangnan. He murmured in admiration, "Truly as beautiful as a poem or a painting."

Yin Lihen's gaze followed Liu Mengdie's movements closely, and an appreciative smile appeared on his face.

He admired the balance of strength and gentleness in Liu Mengdie's dance.

He said in a low voice, "As expected of the former courtesan, she is as beautiful as a flower and has extraordinary dancing skills."

Chu Yujue closed his eyes, as if he were trying to feel Liu Mengdie's dance. When he opened his eyes, they were full of appreciation.

He said, "Her dance moves are like a beautiful piece of music, captivating the viewer."

Qi Yuxuan's expression remained cold and stern. He observed quietly, occasionally nodding in approval.

Although he didn't speak, he was clearly moved by the performance.

As the music reached its climax, Liu Mengdie's dance also reached its peak.

She twirled and leaped on the stage, every movement brimming with power and beauty.

As the music reached its climax, the mechanisms on the stage began to activate.

First, several floorboards suddenly moved, and Liu Mengdie quickly adjusted her pace, skillfully avoiding these moving floorboards.

Then, some obstacles rose from the ground, which she skillfully navigated around to continue her dance.

Just as Liu Mengdie was about to finish her dance, a rotating platform suddenly appeared beneath her feet.

She tried to steady herself, but the platform was spinning so fast that she lost her balance.

Despite her efforts to adjust, she still slipped and fell on the platform.

The audience gasped in surprise, but the judges, seasoned by experience, simply watched calmly.

The four handsome men nervously looked towards the stage.

Qiu Ziyue, worried for her sister, called out, "Mengdie."

Liu Mengdie struggled to her feet; her left foot seemed to have suffered a minor injury.

But she didn't give up; instead, she gritted her teeth and continued to finish her dance.

After her final spin, she stood steadily in the center of the stage and bowed deeply to the audience.

The audience erupted in enthusiastic applause.

Du Zhi stepped onto the stage and excitedly announced, "Thank you, Ms. Liu Mengdie, for your wonderful performance!"

Backstage staff quickly stepped forward and helped Liu Mengdie off the stage.

A pre-arranged medical officer went backstage to examine her wound and performed simple bandaging.

Although Liu Mengdie was in some pain, she still maintained a smile.

Qiu Ziyue quickly went to Liu Mengdie's side to comfort and support her.

The wonderful performance on stage captivated the audience, and Liu Mengdie's outstanding performance drew rounds of applause.

The design of the mechanisms further whetted the audience's appetite.

However, behind this bustling scene, a dark conspiracy is still quietly unfolding.

After checking on Liu Mengdie's injuries, Qiu Ziyue offered her some words of comfort and then went to the dressing room to tidy up her dance dress.

Suddenly, she felt a dark shadow flash by.

Her heart tightened, and she immediately realized that someone might be up to no good.

She quickly hid behind the door and quietly observed the situation.

Sure enough, Liu Xu's figure reappeared at the locker room door.

She carefully opened a small bottle and sprinkled the powder inside onto Qiu Ziyue and Qi Yushuang's dance skirts.

Liu Xu was smugly trying to slip away, but Qiu Ziyue suddenly darted out from behind the door and grabbed her wrist.

Liu Xu stared wide-eyed in horror, spilling the poison powder from her hand all over the ground.

"What exactly do you want to do?" Qiu Ziyue questioned.

The willow catkins struggled for a few moments, but finding they couldn't break free, they had no choice but to give up resisting.

She lowered her head and said in a trembling voice, "I...I was acting under Zhao Wanqing's orders."

Qiu Ziyue stared intently at Liu Xu, a complex expression flashing in her eyes.

She knew that Liu Xu was also being used by Zhao Wanqing, and perhaps she had her own reasons for it.

"Please, please let me go."

Liu Xu knelt on the ground, tears streaming down her face. "I know I did something wrong, but I was forced into it. Zhao Wanqing threatened me that if I didn't listen to her, my family would be in danger."

Qiu Ziyue remained silent for a while, her heart filled with a mixture of anger and sympathy.

She recalled her own past experiences and knew all too well the distress that comes with being misunderstood and framed.

Finally, Qiu Ziyue took a deep breath and slowly said, "I can let you off the hook, but you must help me expose all of Zhao Wanqing's conspiracies and promise never to do such a thing again."

Liu Xu looked up, her eyes filled with gratitude. "Thank you, I will definitely do it, but please promise me, please save my family, they are being controlled by Zhao Wanqing's people."

Qiu Ziyue nodded, then led Liu Xu, showed the token given to her by Zhu Yanshou, handed Liu Xu to the officers, and explained the situation to them.

"Please, Lord Zhu, protect Liu Xu's family as soon as possible. After the competition, Liu Xu will truthfully explain everything and provide a large amount of evidence about Zhao Wanqing," Qiu Ziyue said.

The junior official almost nodded in agreement and quickly relayed Qiu Ziyue's words to Zhu Yanshou's guards.

Zhu Yanshou was watching the performance when he heard the guard's message. He frowned and began to make plans in his mind.

He knew that Qiu Ziyue was not only extremely intelligent but also highly skilled in martial arts. If he could recruit her to his side, she would be a powerful asset to him.

Thinking of this, a barely perceptible smile appeared on Zhu Yanshou's lips.

He thought to himself, "Once Qiu Ziyue agrees to ask me for a favor, I will definitely be able to bring her under my control in the future."

Zhu Yanshou secretly instructed his personal guards to dispatch several skilled fighters to rescue Liu Xu's family.
