Madam Liu had also gone to the Qiu family countless times to persuade Qiu Ying's mother to change her mind. However, she was scolded by Qiu Ying's mother, who had lost her mind because of her husband's death. Qiu Ying's heart ached for her mother and her teacher. She could only promise not to learn dance again.
Although it was something that happened in her previous life, Qiu Ying could still remember Madam Liu's disappointed gaze at that time. She could clearly remember the mixed expression on Madam Liu's face when Qi Yue hugged her and a group of young masters in front of the clubhouse on the day of her suicide.
That clubhouse was a gathering place for the children of the rich and powerful. Madam Liu pulled her to the side and questioned her why. At that time, she could only lower her head. She didn't know where to start.
But even so, Madam Liu still chose to believe in her in the end. She whispered gently, "Good child, I know what kind of person you are. Were you forced? Don't be afraid. Tell me. I'll think of a way for you!"
She thought about how those who protected her had all been killed without exception. That demon was simply omnipotent!
Qiu Ying didn't dare to let Madam Liu take the risk. She could only say that she did so willingly. Then, she shook off Madam Liu's hand and didn't turn back. She walked firmly to Qi Yue's side and even deliberately held his arm.
Before getting into the car, Qiu Ying could clearly see the shock and heartache in Madam Liu's eyes from the corner of her eye. Qiu Ying knew that she was shocked and heartbroken that the child she had watched grow up would one day degrade herself and become someone else's mistress.
Qiu Ying relied on muscle memory to complete the exercises.
She came back to her senses and took a sip of water to calm herself down. Her gaze gradually became firm. After her rebirth, she would never repeat what happened in her previous life!
After warming up, Qiu Ying took two small steps and raised her hands lightly. She used the strength of her waist and abdomen to lift her body into the air, almost forming a line with the ground. She did a standard somersault. Then, she jumped on the spot on one leg, then walked on a thread, turned over, did a backward roll, did a kick with her side leg, pulled one leg, and jumped on the spot. She knelt on the ground, raised her waist, spun in the air, slid down, then lay down. Qiu Ying still did a series of dance techniques with ease in this narrow living room!
After Qiu Ying practiced for an hour, she looked at herself in the mirror and smiled happily.
No matter how tiring she was from studying and working, as long as she danced happily every day and felt how hardworking she was, she believed that she would one day become the girl who slaughtered that evil dragon.
She had a dreamless night…
Senior Mathematics Office
Qiu Ying applied for three days of leave as soon as school started. Yesterday, because her form teacher, Mr. Qian, was a provincial special-class teacher of the senior class, she went to the Education Bureau for a meeting to discuss S City's curriculum for the first semester of the senior year. Therefore, she didn't look for her form teacher to cancel her leave after returning to school yesterday.
Today, she arrived at the teacher's office ten minutes before the morning self-study session. Coincidentally, she bumped into Chen Jian coming out with a leave slip.
Qiu Ying came to the table. "Hello, Mr. Qian. I'm here to cancel my leave."
Mr. Qian looked at the proud student in front of him and nodded with a smile. Then, he said earnestly, "Qiu Ying, you're in your third year of high school. You can't apply for leave so often. Even the difference in one point is enough to eliminate an entire field of people."
Qiu Ying lowered her eyes slightly and looked up at Mr. Qian. "Mr. Qian, don't worry. I won't delay my studies! Although I don't live on campus or participate in evening self-study, I won't slack even for a moment."
Mr. Qian knew that Qiu Ying still insisted on only attending daytime classes every day. He said sympathetically, "Sigh, I know your family is struggling, but I really can't bear to see you put aside your studies to earn money. Your body can't take it either."
Qiu Ying had just transferred over last semester. It was said that her parents didn't take care of their child much and were working out of town. She also had a sick sister at home, so she had a heavy financial burden.
Mr. Qian only agreed to let Qiu Ying go home after class because she had a part-time job.
Qiu Ying took out a few exercise books from her bag and placed them on the desk. She said seriously, "Teacher, I know you're anxious for me. During the holidays, other than completing my summer homework, I bought extra exercise books for every subject. I also marked out those that I didn't understand to ask you. I understand the importance of learning. Please believe me, I can balance work and study well!"
Mr. Qian flipped through the exercise books one by one and realized that after Qiu Ying had revised the completed questions according to the reference answers, she had also written her own summary in many places. Regarding those questions she didn't know how to answer, after reading the answers, she left question marks at the side. It could be seen that Qiu Ying had put in a lot of extra effort in her studies.
