Xu Qigang looked somewhat astonished, but luckily his skin was honey-colored. Otherwise, the devil incarnate would have been seen blushing.

 “Comrade Sheng Ning, I’ll take you there,” Shen Jianguo volunteered.

 “That won’t be necessary,” Xu Qigang said coldly. He then picked up Sheng Ning by her waist. As he left, he said to Zhou Hong, “I’ll take her to the doctor’s office. Tell President Shen for me.”

 “Okay, okay, okay… just go.”

 They arrived at the hospital, and after an examination Sheng Ning was found to have a fractured bone and needed a plaster cast.

 The doctor could tell at a glance that she was from the Song and Dance Ensemble, so after putting on the cast he ordered, “You must let this injury heal completely. Otherwise, it’ll affect your dancing.”

 Xu Qigang stayed silent the entire time, and his stern face remained expressionless. Sheng Ning was so scared she didn’t even dare to cry in pain.

 By this time Yang Wenying had finished dealing with Qin Cuifen’s situation. They were at the same hospital as Sheng Ning, so she rushed over to see her.

 “Chief Xu, thank you. It’ll be fine with me here.” Yang Wenying sent Xu Qigang off, then turned around to look at Sheng Ning.

 Yang Wenying was ranked high in the Song and Dance Ensemble. She had observed Sheng Ning in the past and heard many bad rumors about her. Today was the first time they had really gotten in touch. Now that she inspected Sheng Ning, she appreciated her even more.

 Sheng Ning hugged her knees and cautiously apologized. “I’m sorry! I disgraced us all. It was my fault, but I’ll do better in the future. I’ll practice twice as hard!” Sheng Ning said earnestly. After being reborn, she just wanted to start anew and work diligently from the ground up.

 Yang Wenying saw her sincerity, and the sharpness in her eyes faded. But she couldn’t let Sheng Ning off so easily after she ripped Qin Cuifen’s skirt.

 “Answer me, was Qin Cuifen’s skirt really an accident?” Just asking this question made Yang Wenying’s heart skip a beat. If it wasn’t an accident, then this girl was truly vile, because Qin Cuifen’s future at the General Union Ensemble was completely ruined.

 Sheng Ning’s delicate expression suddenly became unusually solemn. “Director, that sort of situation was not something I could control. I was dancing just fine but got pushed by someone. I just wanted to grab onto something so I wouldn’t fall. I didn’t… I didn’t expect that it would turn out like this!”

 When Yang Wenying heard Sheng Ning say she had been pushed by someone, her gaze became unusually serious. “You said someone pushed you?”

 “Yes! I don’t know who it was, but there were so many people in the audience, someone must have seen it.” Sheng Ning didn’t believe that not a single laborer in the massive audience saw what happened on stage. If Qin Cuifen continued to set her up, she would make it known who had started this situation.

 Yang Wenying narrowed her eyes. After a while, she said, “We’ll investigate this matter thoroughly. You just focus on recovering.”

 “Thank you, Director, but what about the following solicitude performance?”

 Yang Wenying sighed. “We’ve embarrassed ourselves so much this time that all our future performances have been temporarily suspended.”

 “Huh?” Sheng Ning’s eyes widened in surprise. It wasn’t this serious in her past life. “Director, it was all my fault. I’ll take all the blame. Please don’t let everyone else be affected.” She couldn’t get the others into trouble.

 The discontent in Yang Wenying’s heart slowly disappeared. Sheng Ning knew to assume liability, which meant she was a responsible person, and a responsible person was one worth fostering.

 “I’ll take care of this.” Yang Wenying turned to leave, and Sheng Ning saw her off from the bed.
