Rebirth: Don’t be a coward and be a mother’s baby

10 minutes before departure, Qiu Yiren began to call the roll call one by one. After confirming that everyone was present, he asked the driver to drive off on time.

The bus from Yunlu City to Changyang City takes three hours. It departs at [-] a.m. and will arrive at the destination around [-] a.m. if nothing else goes wrong.

Su Yaoyao slept on Xie Jianjia's shoulder all the way without feeling any discomfort at all. Lin An'an's family of three sitting in the front row all looked pale when they got off the car, obviously suffering from motion sickness.

"Everyone should take a rest after returning to the hotel, especially those students who suffer from severe motion sickness. We will gather at the hotel door on time at [-] p.m., and don't be late!" Qiu Yiren said with a serious expression.

The crowd nodded in understanding.

Su Yaoyao and Xie Jianjia took Grandma Dong to the surrounding areas for lunch.

"Hahaha, look at her, she must be motion sick. Who made her so arrogant? Hahaha, it's better to fall flat on her face when dancing in the afternoon." Su Yaoyao hugged Xie Jianjia's arm and smiled openly.

"She's on the same team as you, right? If she falls, won't your team get the prize?" Grandma Dong was puzzled.

Su Yaoyao smiled slyly: "No, that's not the case. There are group dances and solo dances this time. She wanted to stand out as a solo dancer. There were only two solo dancers in total. The other one took two years of study before she dared to sign up. She only studied for a few months, and she still I don’t know what kind of dance she is doing. I heard that her dad stuffed her with a lot of money, so Teacher Qiu just let her go. We all dance in a group, but -"

Grandma Dong was curious: "But what?"

"But Jia Jia is the lead dancer of our team. Teacher Qiu said she has the best coordination, long legs and long hands, so she is suitable to be the lead dancer!"

Hearing this, Grandma Dong touched Xie Jianjia's head and said, "Oh, our Jiajia is so powerful. She is so capable of being a lead dancer at such a young age. She will definitely be a dancer when she grows up!"

I feel a little embarrassed to praise Xie Jianjia.

After eating and drinking, the three of them returned to the hotel to rest.

As they stepped onto the stairs to the second floor of the hotel, they heard the sound of a man and a woman arguing in the distance. The three of them pretended not to notice and walked to their rooms.

After entering the room, Xie Jianjia helped Grandma Dong to the bed, took off her shoes and put the quilt on her, and then she was pulled to the bathroom by Su Yaoyao.

"Jiajia, did you hear that?" The little girl looked uncontrollably excited.

"heard it."

"What do you mean? They are going to divorce? Is that what you said? Did I hear it correctly?"

Xie Jianjia nodded, "You heard that right."

Su Yaoyao jumped twice excitedly, "Wow, if they get divorced, Lin Anan will die of grief. When I think of Lin Anan being sad, I am so happy!"

The man and woman they saw arguing in the corridor were Lin Anan's parents. Listening to the words, they seemed to be arguing about who Lin Anan would marry after the divorce.

It seemed that neither of them wanted children.

Xie Jianjia stretched out her fingers and made a "shh" sign between her lips, shook her head, and then pointed to their neighbor, who lived next door to Lin An'an.

Su Yaoyao hummed, but her voice still lowered, and she said dissatisfiedly: "She was still there in the morning taunting our parents for not coming. Well, her parents came, but it was also the last time. Why can't I laugh loudly? she?"

Xie Jianjia pinched her face. "She is a coward with a venomous mouth. Did you see that she really fought with us that time? And every time she overestimated her capabilities and ridiculed us, didn't we get scolded back by us? We can compare with other things. B-swear, there is no need to add insult to injury when it comes to family matters."

Su Yaoyao still didn't understand, "Don't you hate her very much?"

Xie Jianjia touched her curly hair and nodded, "I hate it. I hate her arrogant and rude character, her unforgiving mouth, and her bad habit of getting involved in everything, but I just hate him, not to the level of an enemy."

If Lin Anan was now in high school or an adult, and her parents were getting divorced, Xie Jianjia might laugh at her, but Lin Anan was only in adolescence in the first year of junior high school, and it was hard to say what impact this sudden family change would have.

Su Yaoyao bit her lip.

"Forget it, forget it, I wouldn't feel comfortable if this happened to me, especially since my parents don't want me. If it were me, I would want to find a river and jump into a river to die."

Find a river and jump into it?Thinking of Lin Anan's slightly extreme personality, it's really hard to say.

At one o'clock in the afternoon, all the students and their parents gathered at the door of the hotel on time. After Qiu Yiren counted the number of people, he set off to the competition venue.

Xie Jianjia raised her head and glanced at the Lin family of three standing in front of her. Although the two adults were a little far away from each other, one of them brought Lin Anan water and the other gave Lin Anan a backpack. It was impossible to tell that they didn't want this daughter.

She couldn't help but wonder if what she heard on the stairs at noon was an illusion.

Su Yaoyao tugged on her sleeve and whispered in her ear: "It's true or false, they really know how to act."

It turned out to be no hallucination.Xie Jianjia sighed inwardly that the acting skills of these two people could win Oscars.

The car drove for 10 minutes and arrived at the performance venue.

"Wow! What a big venue!" Su Yaoyao looked at the indoor dance hall in front of her and couldn't help but sigh. It was much larger than the venue where they practiced dancing.

Xie Jianjia looked around and saw that there were already many students from other dance schools standing in their respective areas waiting to go on stage.

There is no dressing room here, and students don't need to put on heavy makeup. Several makeup artists led by Qiu Yiren took out makeup and applied it on everyone's face one by one, and they were all solved quickly.

As usual, Xie Jianjia's makeup artist put a touch of "cinnabar" on her forehead to highlight her uniqueness as a lead dancer.

Grandma Dong was sitting in the family area, and her eyes flashed with surprise when she saw Xie Jianjia wearing makeup. Although she couldn't hear her voice, you could guess how excited she was by looking at her waving movements.

When Lin An'an saw Xie Jianjia's special treatment, she immediately became unhappy and shouted that she wanted it too. The makeup artist looked embarrassed. A mark on a person's forehead can show that the person is different. If everyone has it, it will be obvious. Nothing special.

Qiu Yiren frowned when he heard her noise and stepped forward. After knowing the cause and effect, he said in a cold voice: "She is a solo dancer. Just order one for her. It won't affect anything."

The makeup artist got permission and used the same technique as Xie Jianjia to put marks between Lin Anan's eyebrows.

Lin An'an immediately glanced at Xie Jianjia with a sullen look, and the latter glanced at her. There was this red mark under her bangs. It made no difference whether it was dotted or not. Besides, Lin Anan's skin was darker and her earlobes were wider. , on the contrary, it seems a bit nondescript.

Forget it, she won't listen even if I say it. She will just think that I am nosy, so just let her be.
