The next day was a day of rest, and Luo Luo originally arranged to go shopping with Xia Ling. However, after they fell overnight, Luo Luo did not come looking for Xia Ling. Looking at her schedule, Xia Ling thought that she should go buy some necessities to bring for the MV outdoor filming the next day, and there were also some daily items to buy; there's no way he could stay there.
He went to look for Tan Ying, the general manager of the training camp, to take a leave of absence that day. According to camp rules, trainees must give advance notice if they wish to leave the camp.
Tan Ying looked at him and smiled sincerely. "I heard that Luo Luo and you had a fight yesterday?"
Xia Ling frowned slightly before replying. "That's my personal problem."
Tan Ying laughed but shrugged and changed the topic when he saw Xia Ling's face turn cold. "I also heard that you had a windmill dance dance with Lu Tao and defeated him."
Xia Ling thought to herself. He is well updated.
He did not respond, quietly waiting for Tan Ying to continue.
Tan Ying was also silent as their eyes locked for a moment. Suddenly, he laughed. "Ye Xingling, why did I never realize that you were this attractive? If there were others who had defeated someone as good as Lu Tao, they would boast to everyone in sight. But you, you look upset even when someone asks about me t . "
Xia Ling tried to keep her emotions under control and looked not too upset. After all, this was the general manager of the training camp he spoke to. He has a big interest in determining whether he will make his debut in the future.
“And also a good actress.” Tan Ying shook his head and muttered to himself.
"Master Tan, is there anything else? I still need to prepare a lot for outdoor photo shoots over the next few days. If I don't leave, I might not have enough time," Xia Ling said simply. Since Tan Ying had said that she was acting, she had no need to hide her feelings.
Tan Ying said, "Yes, there is something I need to ask. Ye Xingling, did you learn to breakdance before joining the training camp?"
Xia Ling finally realized what she meant. He thought for a moment and then replied, "I've never officially learned breakdancing. More precisely, I only learned how to do a few rounds and windmills, leaning more towards gymnastics to practice regularly."
“No wonder your flexibility is so good,” Tan Ying gave him once, and then thought hard. "Why didn't you mention this when you filled your skill proficiency when you entered the camp last year?
Xia Ling rolled her eyes at his head. Of course not, he had not reincarnated back then.
Outwardly, he replied by saying, "If I were to report this skill at first I would be sent to a group practicing street dancing. I don't like street dancing." Xia Ling had never liked the noisy and animated dance genre, it was not her teacup.
"It's a pity" said Tan Ying. "Since Hei Yao Shi's group disbanded, Skyart Entertainment has never had another group of street dancers. Lu Tao has great potential, so I am looking for a partner who can match him. Unfortunately, it proved to be very difficult."
"I'm not interested," Xia Ling said.
Tan Ying frowned. "Ye Xingling, you've been entering the camp for over a year now. Right now, you are still hesitating at the middle and low levels. Your chances of debut are very small. If you cooperate with Lu Tao. . "
“I will not cooperate with anyone,” Xia Ling interrupted Tan Ying. "I'll debut based on my own abilities."
“I will not cooperate with anyone,” Xia Ling interrupted Tan Ying. "I'll debut based on my own abilities."
Tan Ying looked at him for a long time. Suddenly he laughed lightly and said, "As far as you are. I wish I could see that happen."
Xia Ling walked out of the training camp, raised her head and inhaled a breath of fresh air.
On the streets, the sun shines brightly, along with a cool breeze in early autumn. He strolls through the shops on the main shopping street, buying the items he needs for an outdoor photo shoot as he remembers them from his past life. Sunscreen, moisturizer, mosquito repellent, facial wipes. . .
He was not sure if he was missing something.
In the past, he had assistants who would do these things for him and make sure he was well cared for. Now, he was alone and had to do everything by himself, so he felt confused for a moment. How long has it been since he felt this? It was as if everything went back to the beginning in his past life, before his destiny as a diva began. There was a little girl in the orphanage named Xia Ling.
Yes, in his past life he was an orphan.
When the head of the orphanage found them, there were still tears on Xia Yu's face, but her little mouth had already started to smile. He gurgled in excitement as he stretched out his hand to snatch the flowers Xia Ling had placed in front of him.
The head of the orphanage said that he was a responsible child, loving and caring for his sister, independent and strong.
Xia Yu then became weak with serious congenital heart disease. He can't run or jump. If he gets a little too hot or too cold, it will lead to an acute lung infection or even heart failure. In order to take care of Xia Yu, Xia Ling gave up many opportunities for adoption. He had told the head of the orphanage that he had not gone anywhere unless someone was willing to adopt the two of them together.

Year after year passed. Even if Xia Ling was extremely beautiful and presented herself as a kind and responsible child, every couple would shake their heads and give up adopting them after seeing Xia Yu, she said, who looks ugly and skinny because of his illness.
That was until they met Pei Ziheng.
Xia Ling had once thought that she was his savior.
He emerged from under the fragrant flowers of the iris tree, the scorching summer sun making a golden aura to surround his tall stature. He smiled and extended his hand to her, saying, "Xiao Ling, come home with me. I'll make you the most famous artist in the whole world and give you anything you can dream of. And your sister, she will receive the best care. "
Xiao Ling, come home with me.
It was this sentence that made him give her all his love and hope.
He had been following Pei Ziheng since he was 12 years old. He was his guardian, his father, his brother, his teacher and. He thought that she was his forever, but he forgot that she came from a humble background. Pei Ziheng came from a family with a generation of wealth, and since he was the rightful heir, his family naturally wanted him to marry someone who could match him.
He did not even talk about it with her before he agreed to a marriage arranged by his family.
Xia Ling only found out about her engagement in the news. That day, she barged into his office to question him, almost hysterical. She simply frowned at him and said, "It's just an arranged marriage between families. I'm not leaving you. Xiao Ling, since when have you become so unreasonable?"
Ha, it's because he doesn't make sense.
She loves him too much. She could not tolerate others entering the photos that came between them, even if it was just a distant contract wife. Moreover, he was jealous that his wife would be able to walk openly beside him hand in hand and receive everyone's blessings. He, on the other hand, could only hide in the darkness and become his mistress whom he could never reveal to anyone.

He fought fiercely with her about the matter, testing his limits time and time again. He even went to negotiate with other women like the aggrieved wife. The woman showed her supreme elegance, looking down on her by saying, "Xia Ling, who are you? You're just an actress, a toy. If you're smart, I can still tolerate you after marriage. However, if you don't cross the line, don't forget who the female boss of Imperial Entertainment will be in the future. "
At that moment, Xia Ling realized how insignificant she was.
So what if she was a goddess in the music industry? So what if he had countless fans? In front of these wealthy families, he was but a meaningless piece of dust, an ant that could easily be squeezed to death.
He had returned home in desperation, home with the painstakingly decorated Pei Ziheng. From every wall in the room to the kitchen utensils, she has poured her heart into every detail. He suddenly realized that other than giving money and people to help him, Pei Ziheng did nothing at all. All along, the only person who had regarded this place as home was her, Xia Ling. Pei Ziheng only saw it as a hotel or concubine's place.
Fatigue hit him.
He was tired, he wanted to give up. If he could not spend his life with Pei Ziheng, just the two of them, he would rather go to a faraway place, even if he had to die alone.
She squatted on the bed she shared with him and cried alone. After that, she wiped her tears, got up, opened the closet and started packing her luggage. Before he left, he remembered that the weather was getting cold. He turned around and dug through the closet until he found the thick woolen jacket Pei Ziheng liked, and then hung it on the most eye-catching, intricately carved clothes rack in the living room.
Only then did he pick up his thick suitcase and wobbly walk towards the door.
At this moment, he opened the door and entered.
