“Alright, go to bed early. These things are not for a child like you to participate in.” Qin Youting looked at his sister with a doting gaze. Although he didn’t think that his sister was right, he still took the notes his sister wrote. No matter what, he could not waste his sister’s kindness.
“Okay, okay. Good night, Brother.” Qin Zhen nodded. She couldn’t rush this matter. After all, it was already very difficult to throw someone who didn’t know anything about the entertainment industry straight into it. It would take a while for her to convince him.
Qin Youting took the empty cup and went out, but when the door closed, his face darkened. He took out her phone and dialed He Guinian’s number. “What happened to Zhenzhen? Where did the injuries come from?” He asked coldly.
He noticed Qin Zhen’s subdued expression, obviously trying to hide it from him, so Qin Youting did not ask. But he saw them, and he couldn’t pretend that he didn’t know. Who dared hurt his sister?
Moreover, He Guinian had been with Qin Zhen for the past few days, so he should know what happened.
“She’s injured?” Hearing that, He Guinian’s heart tightened. He instantly thought of Qin Zhen’s strange behavior today.
Qin Youting was dissatisfied, “She’s with you almost every day now. She even has dinner with you. How could you not know that she’s injured?”
He Guinian’s throat tightened as he asked worriedly, “Is it serious?”
“It’s just a superficial wound.” That was why Qin Youting was able to hold back. However, his sister could not be at fault for anything! If he could not protect her, what was the point of him being her older brother?
“Leave this matter to me. I’ll give you a satisfactory answer.” After hanging up the phone, He Guinian’s expression was ugly as he asked He Yi to investigate.
In about half an hour, He Yi had found everything. He didn’t expect that the matter from last time was not over yet. Those people still dared to hurt Qin Zhen.
“In that case, don’t let them escape! Prison should be their eternal home!” He Guinian said, his voice filled with ruthlessness and killing intent.
“Understood,” He Yi nodded.
Fierce Bull had committed all kinds of crimes over the years. Sending him to the police station was as easy as stealing candy from a child.
…
In the blink of an eye, the school anniversary celebration arrived.
The entire school was very excited. Under the teacher’s guidance, they carried stuff to the hall and sat down. The school also gave each student a light stick to set off the atmosphere.
Du Juan and the girls from Class 28 were very nervous because they were unlucky enough to draw the third spot toward the end. What was worse, they would have to perform right after Qin Si.
Qin Si had been dancing since she was young, and her skills in classical dance were even better than Du Juan. She was as light as a fairy, and no one could compete with her. She even won first place in the school’s anniversary celebrations two years ago. With them going back to back, the audience wouldn’t be able to help themselves by comparing their performances. And going after Qin Si… They wouldn’t be able to shine.
“Du Juan,” Qin Si said as she slowly walked towards the class monitor of Class 28. She was wearing a white traditional costume, and the tasseled skirt swayed gently as she walked like water ripples gently brushing past her heart. Her every movement, even the frown and smile on her face was perfect. Although it was a little deliberate, it was undeniable that she was very beautiful. Especially when everyone was a young student, this kind of delicate woman’s beauty was fatal.
“How are the preparations going on your end?” Qin Si asked, looking concerned.
“We’re almost done, but it’s not as good as your dance…” Du Juan replied dejectedly.
“Don’t say that. You’re great too. I saw the program’s introduction. All the girls from Class 28 will be performing together. Why isn’t Qin Zhen here?” Qin Si asked.
“Qin Si, why did you bring her up for no reason?” Du Juan was furious at the mention of Qin Zhen’s name, “She doesn’t know how to dance, so she didn’t go on stage. Almost all the people in Class 28 worshiped her like a god these days. Sure, her academic score is slightly better, and she is capable now. But when you did well in your exams in the past, you were not as pretentious as her.”
Qin Si was still smiling, but when she heard Du Juan’s words, she could not help but clench her fists, “If she doesn’t know how to dance, then it’s best if she doesn’t go on stage. Today’s event is different from previous years. There will be many board members attending and many outstanding schoolmates performing. Their skills are on the same level as gods. If you let Qin Zhen perform, the school leaders would definitely be angry and might record a major demerit to her. No matter how capable the Qin family is, they could not stop people from talking.”
“Alright, I’ll go make some preparations first. You guys should do your best.” With that, Qin Si left, leaving Du Juan alone in her spot, deep in thought.
…
“Next performance is prepared by Qin Si…”
Thunderous applause rang out from the audience! Many boys even whistled.
