My Substitute Wife is a Bigwig (Loud and Lily) novel Chapter 160

As many others were performing before them, Class 18 and Class 1 waited for their turns in the dressing room. The two classes had always been at loggerheads. None of them spoke to each other despite sharing the room. So, it was very quiet.

Finally, it was Class 1's turn to perform. They were doing a uniform dance. The choreography was quite innovative, and everyone matched the rhythm of the music very well. It was pretty impressive for high school students to be able to give this level of performance.

Coupled with the fact that it was Shannon leading the dance, the applause for their performance seemed to go on forever.

When they were done, the judges revealed their score—they got 9.5. This was the highest score so far.

After Class 1 got down from the stage, it was now Class 18's turn to perform.

Lily went to sit in the audience.

Anya followed Ian as they made their way on stage. It was dark backstage, so she couldn't quite see where she was going.

When she was about to get on stage, she tripped on something and lost her balance. Then, she fell on the stairs.

Ian was shocked. He quickly helped Anya up and asked with a frown, "What's wrong?"

Anya bit her bottom lip due to the pain shooting up from her leg. Tears shimmered in her eyes as she replied, "I can't walk."

"What do we do? We can't dance without you," Ian said worriedly.

The people from Class 1 walked away uncaringly without batting an eye. No one came to check on Anya's feet at all.

With her head lowered, Anya suddenly thought of something. She called out loudly, "Shannon!"

Shannon, who was walking ahead, halted her steps. She turned to give Anya a puzzled look. "What?"

"Why did you trip me up?" Anya confronted her angrily.

Shannon was stunned for a moment and showed an aggrieved expression. "What are you saying? I was going my way and didn't even come into contact with you. Why are you saying that I tripped you up?"

"Don't think that you can slander others as you wish just because Lily is backing you up in school!" Shelby retorted.
