Chapter 24: Living On with the Original Owner’s Share of Life

Unfortunately, Ling Xiaoli waited for a long time but still didn’t receive approval from the other side, so she had no choice but to give up for the time being.

Tsk. When Luo Zhaoyin added him in the original novel, the male lead approved her request instantly. There’s no comparison, no comparison.

After putting down her phone, Ling Xiaoli prepared to do something very important!

During the five days before she joined the cast, she had to find a way to familiarize herself with the original owner’s only truly impressive skill—

Dancing.

Whether it was singing and dancing onstage or performing in films, dancing would be an essential skill.

She had to master it completely!

………

Before Lin Cheng could finish processing a document, his phone began vibrating again.

Annoyed, he picked it up.

It was WeChat again. This time, it was a new friend request with a message:

Hello, I was recommended by Feng Weiyuan. I’m Ling Xiaoli.

A certain pair of peach-blossom eyes suddenly appeared in his mind.

Lin Cheng’s hand trembled.

Thud!

The poor phone had made intimate contact with the desk for the second time that day.

He stared at the phone screen for a while before slowly picking it up and opening the request.

The WeChat username was also Ling Xiaoli. Her profile picture was a cat hiding behind a door, showing only half of its head.

Her Moments feed was completely blank.

The cover photo of her album showed a woman from behind. Her long hair fell over her shoulders, and her hands were clasped behind her back. She was gazing up at the sky as a gentle breeze stirred the grass and the hem of her dress.

It was beautiful.

For some inexplicable reason, Lin Cheng felt that the woman in the picture had to be Ling Xiaoli herself.

He then stared blankly at the cover photo.

Ten minutes later, Lin Cheng put down his phone and continued working as if nothing had happened.

Only the friend request remained quietly in his WeChat account.

He hadn’t deleted it.

………

Honding Apartments, seventeenth floor.

After returning home, Ling Xiaoli immediately took out a yoga mat, opened a video teaching basic dance movements, took a deep breath, and attempted the splits.

Whoosh!

A perfect straight split!

Huh? That easy?

Ling Xiaoli was astonished. She tried several more movements in succession, and every single one was executed perfectly on the first attempt.

Well, this was the original owner’s body, after all. Her dance foundation was excellent, so this made sense.

Then perhaps she should try some advanced dance moves!

She quickly switched to another dance tutorial.

A moment later, Ling Xiaoli was completely stunned!

Whether the movements were difficult or easy, she performed every one of them perfectly. She could even complete an entire dance after watching the breakdown of the movements only once!

It was as if this body’s brain possessed a unique way of remembering dance movements.

Ling Xiaoli knew herself well. Forget dancing—even when doing simple radio calisthenics, her limbs would become stiff and awkward.

This body was unexpectedly powerful!

During livestreams, the original owner had only performed simple otaku dances. Who would have thought she had worked so hard in private?

As she thought about it, Ling Xiaoli’s mood grew somewhat gloomy again.

She shook her head and continued practicing.

Her body was powerful, but her consciousness had yet to fully catch up. Ling Xiaoli made up her mind.

For the next few days, she would do nothing except practice dancing!

She would strive to master it as soon as possible!

………

Over the following days, Ling Xiaoli’s daily routine consisted of dancing, dancing, and more dancing.

She handled every meal through food delivery.

Thank goodness for technological advancement, thank goodness for food culture, and thank goodness for delivery riders—for keeping her alive.

Oh, apart from practicing dance, Ling Xiaoli also continued organizing her survival guide.

Everything she had done up to this point had been solely for the sake of staying alive.

In her original world, there were still so many things she hadn’t done.

Places she wanted to visit but never had.

Delicacies she wanted to taste but never got the chance to.

But Heaven had never given her that opportunity.

Fortunately, she had come to life once again.

She could run, jump, speak, laugh, and cry.

The more regret she had felt while floating above the hospital bed in the emergency room, the more she cherished the life before her now.

Even if this life had once belonged to someone else—

She would still do her best to live on, carrying the original owner’s share of life with her!
