She Lives without Regret in This Life

Chapter 9: Chapter 009 Questioned

Xu Qigang looked slightly astonished. Luckily, his skin was of the honey-colored kind; otherwise, one could surely see the scene of Huo Yan blushing.

"Comrade Sheng Ning, let me take you," Shen Jianguo offered proactively.

"No need!" Xu Qigang said coldly, then directly picked her up in a bridal carry. As they left, he instructed Zhou Hong, "I'll take her to the infirmary. In a moment, help me inform Old Li."

"Alright, alright... you go ahead!"

At the hospital, an examination revealed a fracture. A cast had to be applied.

"This injury must be properly treated, or it will seriously affect your dancing in the future," the doctor advised sternly after realizing they were from the Song and Dance Troupe.

Xu Qigang remained silent throughout, his serious face showing no expression, which frightened Sheng Ning into not daring to utter a word of pain.

By this time, Yang Wenying had already finished dealing with Qin Cuifen's matters and rushed over, since they were all in the same hospital.

"Captain Xu, thank you. I can take it from here," Yang Wenying said as she saw Xu Qigang off, then turned to look at Sheng Ning.

She held a high position in the Song and Dance Troupe. She had merely observed Sheng Ning in the past and had heard many negative rumors about her. Today was their first real interaction. Upon closer inspection, her appreciation grew.

"I'm sorry!" Sheng Ning, clutching her knees, apologized cautiously. "I embarrassed us, it's my fault. I will change and train doubly hard in the future." This was her sincere thought. In her reincarnated life, she only wanted to turn over a new leaf and live honestly.

Yang Wenying saw her sincerity, and her sharp gaze softened slightly. However, the matter of her tearing Qin Cuifen's dress couldn't end just like that.

"Let me ask you, was Qin Cuifen's dress incident truly an accident?" Yang Wenying's heart leaped at the mention. If it wasn't an accident, the girl before her had an incredibly malicious mind.

Qin Cuifen's future in the Song and Dance Troupe was thoroughly ruined.

Sheng Ning's formerly meek expression turned unusually serious, "Regiment Commander, in that situation, it wasn't something I could control. I was dancing fine when someone pushed me. In desperation, I tried to grab something to avoid falling, and I didn't expect it to turn out this way!"

Yang Wenying caught the part about someone pushing her, and her eyes became exceptionally stern. "You're saying someone pushed you?"

"Exactly! I don't know who it was, but with so many people in the audience, surely someone must have seen it." She couldn't believe that with so many workers below, no one would notice the minor actions above.

As long as Qin Cuifen dared to persist against her, she would expose her as the instigator.

Yang Wenying squinted her eyes, and after a moment said, "We will investigate this matter thoroughly. Take good care of your injury."

"Thank you, regiment commander, but what about the upcoming consolation performance?"

Yang Wenying sighed, "We've lost so much face this time that all subsequent performances have been ordered to stop."

"What?" Sheng Ning widened her eyes in shock. It had never been this severe in her previous life! "Regiment Commander, it's my fault. I'll take full responsibility. Please don't involve others." She couldn't drag everyone else down with her.

Yang Wenying's slight dissatisfaction also gradually faded. Acknowledging responsibility showed she had a sense of duty, and someone with such a sense of duty was worth cultivating.

"I will handle this matter," said Yang Wenying before turning to leave. Sheng Ning sat on the bed, watching her exit.
