Everyone displayed their best performance, and right now, they were all comfortable and relaxed, only waiting for the release of the final results .
Since they had already put in their biggest effort, they had no regrets .
Besides, everyone felt that their performance was not bad and thought that it was very likely that they could win first place . They completely didn’t feel that they performed worse than anyone else .
Perhaps it was because they had performed extremely well while the others’ performances weren’t really outstanding either .
Their self-confidence was high up in the clouds . They even felt that Lu Man could not perform any better than they did .
“Student Lu Man, it’s your turn . Please get ready,” said to Lu Man by a staff member who appeared backstage .
Lu Man removed her earphones and tidied up her costume . She held her head high, puffed up her chest, and walked calmly out of the backstage .
Surprisingly, at this time, she was already in character .

She was just like the queen who was proud yet fragile, troubled, and conflicted .
The lights on stage still weren’t lit up, but a melodious dance tune had started playing, dragging people into that age of unrest, which was also extravagant and hectic .
Right after that, the stage lights lit up and everyone in the audience gasped in shock .
There were so many actors on stage!
Wearing suits and evening gowns, they were dancing to the tune, chatting and whispering to each other . It was a grand and extravagant scene .
In such a setting, Lu Man appeared elegantly, wearing her evening gown . Under the dazzling golden lights, amid the clattering of wine glasses and the chattering, she stood up and caught the attention of everyone in the audience by surprise .
With lazy steps, Lu Man staggered and tumbled her way through the crowds .
As she walked past each person, the other person’s lines became clearer and louder .

Each teacher’s performance seemed ordinary, but they knew how to hold back and be very nuanced, making Lu Man stand out .
Lu Man walked to a table by the side . The guests were dancing not far away from her, but once Lu Man sat down at the table, she singled a place out for herself .
She didn’t say a single word, but through the large screen, the audience looked at Lu Man’s face and felt like they were already looking at a queen who was about to go crazy .
Lu Man picked up the flower in front of her and plucked the petals . Her eyes losing focus, she stuffed the petals into her mouth while only looking at the flower in front of her .
At that moment, Pu Yi introduced his wife to everyone . Just after the audience’s attention was caught by it, someone said all of a sudden, “Quick, look!”
And everyone looked towards Lu Man again .
As she was eating the flowers, a trail of tears started flowing out of her left eye .
Her eyes were still staring wide, but she didn’t utter a single sound, only stuffing more flowers into her mouth even more anxiously .

Tears streamed down her face . She appeared numb, but it also felt like she was desperately close to the edge of insanity .
Even Pu Yi’s sudden lines didn’t snatch away the limelight from Lu Man .
It was like both sides were two separate camera shots . The audience had to look here and there .
In just a few minutes, the scene was silent yet loaded .
As Lu Man cried, she smiled and started eating the stem of the flower . Pu Yi, acted by Teacher Fang, stormed angrily and darkly towards Lu Man .
“Why aren’t you properly enjoying? Why?”
Lu Man twisted the stems around her hands and said strangely, “Mr . Amakasu is the most powerful person in the whole of Manchuria . ”
Teacher Fang asked, unable to understand, “What are you saying? You are unable to believe that I could become the emperor again, but I am . ”
Lu Man twisted the flower stem and scoffed . “You’re foolish . ”
Teacher Fang sat down and didn’t look at Lu Man . “Do you know what it means to be the queen? You are the queen . ”
There was a trail of tears still clinging onto Lu Man’s face, glittering under the lights . She gritted her teeth and laughed coldly . “I’ll never return to Japan . ”
