Early the next morning, looking at her well-rested, spirited face in the mirror, and the less obvious wound on her mouth, she fell silent again. It seemed she was in for a scolding today.
She casually washed her face, put on a mask, and hurried to the playground. When she arrived, the performance rehearsal had already begun. Old Chang gave her a number plate, laughing, “Saved the second-to-last spot for you. Our prison guards’ program must be saved for the finale.”
“…” It seemed this person had high expectations for her. Tao Yu’s mouth twitched, and just as she was about to find an excuse to escape today’s rehearsal, Old Chang was called away. She stood there staring at her number plate, feeling completely overwhelmed.
Fatty was checking his band’s instruments nearby, and after seeing Yue Linze constantly looking in a certain direction, he followed his gaze and saw Tao Yu standing there looking bewildered.
Fatty’s mouth moved, not knowing what to say. The boss and Officer Tao had clearly been off these past few days, and their coldness was palpable. Thinking about the officer’s interaction with Doctor Zhou yesterday, he had a bad feeling.
Could the boss have been dumped by the officer?!
As soon as this thought emerged, Fatty immediately dismissed it, thinking their boss was handsome and strong, definitely better than that little Zhou. How could the officer possibly choose Zhou over their boss?
Thinking this, Fatty returned to the rehearsal.
Tao Yu looked at the number plate with a grievance, regretting that she hadn’t thought of a program to fool everyone earlier.
Just as she was struggling to think, a prisoner from the first area came to remind her that there were only four programs left before her turn, and she should prepare. Tao Yu’s head felt even heavier, and she couldn’t think of anything at all.
The surroundings were noisy, and she had been bumped twice. Just as she was about to find a quieter place to continue thinking, a third person came rushing towards her, but was grabbed by the collar and thrown aside by Yue Linze.
The person almost fell, and was about to curse but immediately fled after seeing it was Yue Linze.
