Reborn As Super Heiress

Cao Yuwen wasn’t a fool. Although he wasn’t part of the magic circle and didn’t understand the tricks involved, he was still a viewer. With just the performance Huo Sining showcased, her display was truly remarkable. Even someone like him, accustomed to watching various star performances, couldn’t help but be drawn to the girl’s act on screen.

This made Cao Yuwen realize that if his blog post were really published online, he would definitely become famous, albeit overwhelmed by countless criticisms and attention.

Cao Yuwen stared intently at the TV screen, still holding onto a sliver of hope that Huo Sining’s program was merely intended to grab everyone’s attention at the outset. Perhaps there wouldn’t be much to see after the initial burst of surprise.

While Cao Yuwen was tangled up in his thoughts, the online discussions erupted again. Some netizens weren’t focused on Huo Sining’s magic performance but on other details.

”I already knew Huo Sining’s magic was amazing, but I’m more curious about how she got those fish to circle around her. Did she hide some treats on her body?”

”Right, I noticed when she just ran out of that castle, those fish started swimming around her. It’s so strange, it’s as if she’s really the Mermaid Princess.”

”This shouldn’t be anything special. With proper training, it’s possible. Frequently feeding the fish to make them familiar with people, so when someone appears, the fish would automatically circle around.”

”The fish aren’t the focus here, the real question is how is it that in the water, Huo Sining’s hair doesn’t float upwards but falls straight down her back? What’s the principle behind this? It’s too strange! Water naturally has buoyancy; normally, in water, people’s hair floats upwards. How did she achieve this?”

”I’ll say this quietly, but didn’t any of you notice? Huo Sining stayed in the water for about one or two minutes, but she seemed perfectly fine, as if she were on land. If it weren’t for the fish swimming around, I would’ve thought that the pool was empty of actual water.”

Once these suspicions were raised, tech enthusiasts immediately started analyzing them.

”So what? If a magician can’t even do this, then they’re not a real magician. She definitely used some method to make us believe she’s in the water. That’s the marvel of a magician, tricking our eyes to deceive us!”

As discussions heated up online, people in front of the television were equally curious. Even the live audience, including Chief Lu and other elderly gentlemen, had their eyes widened, waiting eagerly for Miss Magic to reveal her grand trick!

In the water, the girl moved as if on solid ground. She made her way upward, exiting the castle, climbing step by step until she reached the surface.

The moment she emerged from the water, the girl seemed like the most beautiful little mermaid in the ocean. Her dewy white face appeared to be dripping with water droplets, while her clear, bright eyes gazed outward curiously with a hint of daze and expectation.

After observing for a while, the girl seemed puzzled and asked, ”Prime Minister Turtle, there are people living on the coast. Tell me, what are they doing over there? Why do I see them setting off fireworks and firecrackers?”

Prime Minister Turtle? Everyone was confused, unsure who the girl was talking to. Just as they were wondering, the girl looked back with mock annoyance: ”Prime Minister Turtle, I’m talking to you. Why are you invisible?”

Just as she said this, the girl pointed with her hand, and suddenly, a large sea turtle emerged behind her. The turtle was about one and a half meters long, with a blackish-brown body and a carapace interspersed with pale yellow patterns.

As soon as the turtle surfaced, it stretched out its neck and poked its head out. Its four legs clumsily paddled in the water. People were initially surprised by the appearance of such a large sea turtle, and upon seeing its awkward form, they couldn’t help but chuckle.

When the turtle seemed like it was going to flee, the mermaid girl grabbed its head with an annoyed pout, ”Why are you running? It’s so lively over there. Why don’t we go play on the shore?”

Without waiting for the old turtle to react, the mermaid girl stood straight up out of the water. It turned out that at some point, the pool began to slowly drop towards the stage, while the steps gradually rose, slowly lifting the mermaid girl and the large sea turtle out of the water.

It was also at this moment that everyone noticed that at some point, the girl’s fish tail, which had been visible when she emerged from the water, was gone. Where the tail once was, there appeared two long, slender, and white legs. Her aqua blue skirt hugged down to her ankles, covering her legs and subtly shimmering with silver light, with only her delicate, glistening feet exposed.

As the girl led the turtle toward the stage off the pool, the turtle seemed uncooperative, struggling as if it wanted to return to the sea. The turtle appeared clumsy, but the mermaid girl was slender and struggled to move such a large turtle?

Apparently frustrated as well, the girl saw that the turtle wouldn’t cooperate. Her eyes turned as if she thought of something, and she flashed a sly, fox-like grin.

”Prime Minister Turtle, you’re really not coming with me?” The girl bent down, circling around the old sea turtle and whispered.

Old Sea Turtle: ...

Seeing no response from the old sea turtle, the girl straightened up, clapped her hands, and said, ”Non-violence and non-cooperation. If that’s the case, don’t blame me for being impolite.”

As her charming voice echoed, the girl suddenly produced a red silk ribbon from somewhere. She draped the red ribbon over the old sea turtle and tapped its shell with her fingers, uttering a subtle command, ”Transform!”

Before everyone could react, they only saw the red silk ribbon flash, and where the old turtle was on stage, the clumsy turtle was gone. In its place stood a large Tibetan Mastiff with its tongue sticking out and tail wagging enthusiastically.

At this, everyone was dumbfounded.

Those who were eagerly supporting Huo Sining in front of the TV burst into laughter upon seeing the Tibetan Mastiff on stage, knowingly examining the large dog and exchanging comments.

”This is the Tibetan Mastiff from the S University welcome gala, right? It hasn’t been a year, and it’s grown so much!”

”Huo Sining said on Weibo that this dog’s name is Heitan. Haha, it really looks like a piece of coal, what an apt name!”

”Heitan made an appearance, and it’s really shining now. I bet by tomorrow, it’ll become a celebrity dog!”

”Is this dog really a Tibetan Mastiff? It seems so obedient and cute. I really want a dog like this too!”

”Turning Prime Minister Turtle into a dog, is that really okay? Why does it feel like the whole style changed too quickly...”
