Chapter 51: Chapter 051 Similar Encounters
Yes, all four girls in the same dormitory clearly felt the change in Sheng Ning.
She talked less, became quieter, and became more diligent.
The other two roommates were Zhao Feifei and Wu Youli. They were part of the drama group in the Song and Dance Troupe, so they didnât rehearse in the same place as Sheng Ning and Zhang Hongmei. The Mid-Autumn Festival Gala didnât affect them much, so they only knew about the rumors and saw Sheng Ning for the first time after the incident today.
Zhao Feifei was straightforward and couldnât stand Sheng Ning. When she returned to the dormitory in the evening and saw Sheng Ning occupying the only desk to write, she let out a cold sneer.
Wu Youli, who came back with her, noticed her expression and quickly tugged at her.
âDonât worry, I wonât stoop to her level.â Zhao Feifei glared at Sheng Ning and carried her basin to the communal bathroom to wash up.
When Zhao Feifei glared at Sheng Ning, Sheng Ning actually felt it. She looked up and watched Zhao Feifei leave with a thoughtful expression.
During her recovery, she had interacted with them. The relationship wasnât good, and they usually didnât speak.
Sheng Ning thought that since she wanted to change her fate in this life, she couldnât offend everyone like before, especially those around her.
But how to do it⊠That was the problem. After all, she had already offended them. It was truly a failure to think about it. In the entire Song and Dance Troupe, aside from Zhang Hongmei, she didnât have a single friend.
âSheng Ning.â Wu Youli hesitantly called out to her with a friendly smile.
Sheng Ning suddenly turned her gaze to Wu Youli, the sharp look in her eyes startled Wu Youli, who looked at her trembling.
âWh-whatâs wrong?â
âNothing.â Sheng Ning responded with a kind smile. She remembered that Wu Youli had a similar experience to hers in her previous life.
Wu Youli went out to play with friends, got drunk, and was raped. She was too cowardly to talk about it when she returned home. It wasnât until she got pregnant and accidentally fell during a performance, leading to a miscarriage, that it was discovered.
Sheng Ning carefully recalled the specific time but couldnât remember. The only thing she was sure of was that it happened before her own incident.
Wu Youli, frightened by Sheng Ningâs gaze, quickly grabbed her toiletries and left in a hurry.
âWith such a timid nature, how did she end up going out with delinquent youths?â Sheng Ning muttered to herself, just as Zhang Hongmei walked in and heard her.
âWhat are you doing?â Zhang Hongmeiâs loud voice startled her.
âIâm writing a self-criticism.â Sheng Ning bit the pen in her hand and tugged at her hair in frustration.
Zhang Hongmeiâs face turned green when she heard that Sheng Ning was writing a self-criticism. âI canât help you with that.â She had only completed primary school, which was impressive in their village, but she realized that everyoneâs education level in the Song and Dance Troupe was higher than hers.
This had made Zhang Hongmei feel inferior for a long time.
âDonât worry! I can write it well.â In her previous life, Sheng Ning wouldnât have been able to write it, but later on, with the influence of the internet and the education she received in prison,
she could easily write even a hundred thousand words.
Sheng Ning spent three whole hours writing the self-criticism, and after checking for any mistakes, she carefully placed it in her bag.
She woke up early the next day before the morning call even sounded. Getting up, she found that Zhang Hongmei had already started cleaning.
The competition in the union was intense. Everywhere depended on oneâs ability, background, and performance. Zhang Hongmei was the most hard-working person in the Song and Dance Troupe, always doing the dirty and tiring work just to stay.
Sheng Ning greeted her. Her fair, rosy face looked delicate and enchanting like a little demon in the thin morning mist.
