Transmigrated as the male lead's roommate's vicious girlfriend

Ning Xi cooked lunch at home and sent a message to He Kezhou saying the food was ready.

She didn't wait for He Kezhou, but left the food for him and ate it herself first.

Otherwise I'll be late for work.

The car dealership is close to home, so He Kezhou can have lunch and then take a nap.

After returning home and having lunch, He Kezhou didn't take a nap. Seeing that Ning Xi was already ready to leave, he quickly finished his meal.

Ning Xi glanced at him sideways. "Is the car dealership so busy that they don't even give us time for a nap?"

He Kezhou took the umbrella from her hand. "I'll ride my electric scooter and take you to the subway entrance."

Ning Xi then realized that he had been wolfing down his food not because he was starving, but because he wanted to finish quickly so he could take her to the subway station.

"He Kezhou, are you full?"

He Kezhou nodded.

Ning Xi took precautions against the sun and glanced at the plates on the table.

He Kezhou followed her gaze to the dining table: "I'll wash up when I get back. I'll take you to work first."

Ning Xi was quite happy that she didn't have to walk.

Although the subway station is not far away.

She got off the back of the electric scooter and told He Kezhou to hurry home and get some rest.

He Kezhou didn't say anything, but adjusted the sun hat on her head for her.

Ning Xi waved to him.

As soon as I entered the subway, it instantly cooled down.

Ning Xi arrived at the theater at just 1:20.

She sent a message to Teacher Tang on WeChat.

Tang Dan came out quickly and took her to the preparation room, where she was introduced to two other teachers from the same troupe who taught classical and folk dance.

Both teachers were very good-looking and had outstanding demeanor, but their gazes toward Ning Xi were not warm.

These two teachers are tenured staff members, while Ning Xi is an untenured staff member.

Ning Xi greeted the two politely.

One of the teachers, Ms. Zheng, who was a few years older than Ning Xi and taught folk dance, frowned and looked Ning Xi over for a while. "Can she handle it?"

Tang Dan ignored her words, "Teacher Dai, you'll take care of Teacher Ning's follow-up work."

Dai Yilan said, "Okay."

Zheng Shiyin rolled her eyes, feeling embarrassed by Tang Dan's actions.

Ning Xi was taken out of the preparation room by Tang Dan to familiarize herself with the theater environment.

Zheng Shiyin complained to Dai Yilan, "I don't know what Teacher Tang Dan was thinking, hiring a non-dance major teacher trainee. She's so young, she probably doesn't even have any work experience."

"Teacher Tan is determined to leave, that's her own problem, why should she take her anger out on me?"

Dai Yilan looked up from her phone. "You know why Teacher Tan left."

Zheng Shiyin was stunned for a moment. "What do you mean only I know? She broke up with her boyfriend a month ago, and her ex-boyfriend confessed to me, and I said yes. Is that my problem now?"

Dai Yilan looked at her coldly: "You don't need to tell me this, I don't want to hear it."

Zheng Shiyin was so angry that she slammed her phone on the table.

Dai Yilan didn't even lift her eyelids.

……

Ning Xi followed Teacher Tang through the dressing room, prop room, and rehearsal hall.

She was introduced to the theater by her teacher, Tang Dan, and learned that Tang Dan was a senior teacher and the person in charge of teaching, who coordinated the entire children's dance curriculum, teacher assignments, and rehearsals.

The rehearsal area of ​​the theater was quiet and orderly, with a full-length mirror covering an entire wall, and the floor felt solid and springy underfoot.

Tang Dan: "The theater is a legitimate arts institution. Even the non-permanent positions are completely different from commercial training institutions. There is no need to recruit students or promote continuing courses here. All the work focuses on professional teaching, rehearsal of plays, and children's arts education. It is a relatively respectable and pure job."

Ning Xi listened quietly without interrupting.

Tang Dan liked her quietness and composure.

Ning Xi has been learning dance in the children's dance troupe of the theater since she was a child, and the environment here makes her feel warm and familiar.

Tang Dan explained the list of students for the evening class and the training plan in detail. She also briefly explained the process of daily office work, rehearsals, and performance preparations, and told Ning Xi that she could contact her again at any time if she had any questions.

With no classes scheduled during the day, Ning Xi returned to the preparation room.

The preparation room was very quiet.

Ning Xi didn't speak first, but sat down at the empty workstation and looked through the student files on the table.

She is gradually adapting to the pace and environment here, and she also knows that in the workplace, it is normal for senior employees to be indifferent to newcomers.

Although Teacher Dai was assigned to mentor Ning Xi, she never spoke a single word to her from beginning to end.

In the afternoon, Ning Xi didn't use her phone; instead, she carefully reviewed the students assigned to her.

After understanding the students' situation and the course progress, she began to prepare her lessons.

Zheng Shiyin looked up at Ning Xi and said, "You're quite lucky. On Monday, Teacher Tang interviewed eight dance teachers, each of whom had a higher degree than you, but she still chose you."

Ning Xi's hands didn't stop flipping through the files. "My abilities match this position. I don't think it's luck."

Zheng Shiyin frowned, clearly disliking Ning Xi's attitude as a newcomer speaking to an old person.

She sneered, "Whether you can stay or not is still uncertain, don't be too happy yet."

Ning Xi did not speak again.

Zheng Shiyin rolled her eyes at Ning Xi's retreating figure and left the preparation room.

……

At six o'clock in the evening, parents arrived at the theater one after another with their children, and the originally quiet space was gradually filled with the sounds of cheerful laughter.

Dai Yilan got up and led Ning Xi to her classroom.

Ning Xi had already changed into her training clothes and looked calm.

She has two small group classes tonight.

One basic class and one advanced class.

Dai Yilan's voice was clear and deep: "Can you stay? Teacher Tang will observe the effectiveness of your lesson."

Ning Xi nodded. "Thank you for the reminder, Teacher Dai."

Dai Yilan didn't show any extra expression and found a spot in the corner of the classroom to sit cross-legged.

The children in this class are practicing basic Chinese dance combinations.

Upon seeing the new teacher, the twelve six-, seven-, and eight-year-old children all showed curiosity and confusion in their eyes.

After Ning Xi briefly introduced herself to the children, she prepared to start the class.

This decisive and efficient manner made Dai Yilan put down her phone.

New teachers usually try to build rapport with their students during their first lesson, hoping to make the children like them.

Ning Xi stood before the children, her expression gentle and composed, her tone relaxed yet measured, her tenderness instilling a sense of propriety that commanded their respect.

Ning Xi said, "Let's begin class."

Suddenly, a child shouted, "Teacher Ning, where is our Teacher Tan? Why isn't Teacher Tan leading our class?"

"We want Teacher Tan to give us lessons."

Ning Xi looked at the two children who were talking.

She said softly, "You all miss Teacher Tan, don't you?"

The children all said in unison that they wanted to.

Ning Xi: "In this lesson, the children listened attentively to Teacher Ning. I will send the video of your class to Teacher Tan so that she will know that the children were paying attention in class."

The noisy classroom gradually quieted down.

Ning Xi gently corrected the posture of the girl with a bun in the first row, and accurately called out her name: "Jiajin, lower your shoulder blades and curl your tailbone inward, as if an invisible thread is tied to the top of your head, pulling your posture up."

The girl named Jiajin stared intently at Ning Xi with her bright, grape-like eyes. "Teacher Ning, how do you know my name?"

Ning Xi smiled and told her, "Teacher Tan told me."

The student files on her desk today have photos of each student and their learning progress.

This lesson, which focuses on lifting, sinking, and leaning, while also emphasizing flexibility and formation positioning, is in preparation for the summer rehearsal.

After watching Ning Xi's basic class, Tang Dan nodded to Dai Yilan.

Dai Yilan discovered that although Ning Xi was young and not a dance major, her teaching methods and style were very mature and professional, which gave them an unexpected surprise.

After teaching two small group classes, Ning Xi returned to the preparation room and felt that physical strength was the biggest weakness of her current body.

The continuous demonstrations and repeated corrections left her with aches in her lower back and a slight swelling in her ankles.

When it was time to leave work, Ning Xi was the only one in the office.

Ning Xi changed her clothes, picked up her bag from her workstation, and left the theater.

Once on the subway, she opened her phone and checked He Kezhou's unread messages.

Z: [Are you off work yet?]

Z: [The broadband at home has been installed, and the door locks have been replaced.]

Z: [Lock the door from the inside at night.]

Ning Xi typed a message with her fingertips, replying to He Kezhou.

She stared at the message from He Kezhou telling her to lock the door and typed to ask him if he wasn't coming back tonight.

He Kezhou replied to the message very quickly.

Z: [There's work at the racing club tonight.]

XiXi NaiFu: [Do I have to work all night?]

Z: [No, I'll be back late and it'll disturb your sleep.]

Ning Xi typed that it was okay, she was sleeping soundly.

She assumed the racing club was the car dealership's next job, and He Kezhou had said it wasn't an all-nighter, so she didn't ask for too much detail.

Z: How was your workday?

Ning Xi and He Kezhou chatted for almost half an hour about what happened at work today.

XiXi NaiFu: [What to do when you encounter an eye-rolling woman at work?!]

Z: [Is someone giving you trouble?]

Xixi Naifu: [She gave me a hard time, but didn't make things difficult for me.]

Z: [If I'm unhappy, I won't work.]

Ning Xi's tension from this afternoon and evening completely dissipated after receiving He Kezhou's message.

When she started working in a new environment, she wasn't as composed as she appeared; she felt uneasy inside.

Ning Xi followed the flow of people and scanned the QR code to exit the subway station.

She sent He Kezhou a voice message: "No, I have to work. Today was fulfilling, and I wasn't unhappy at all."

He Kezhou played a video for her.

Ning Xi smiled as she looked at He Kezhou on her phone, "I'll show you how 'Eye-Rolling Sister' rolls her eyes."

Her eyes were slightly upturned, and her cheeks were gently puffed out as she tried to put on a mean expression, but her appearance was not intimidating at all; instead, it revealed a bit of naivety and cuteness.

He Kezhou took the screenshot before he even thought about it.

Ning Xi noticed He Kezhou was smiling, so she studied even harder.

"Isn't it hilarious!"

"Teacher Zheng's eyes are actually very beautiful, but the way she rolls her eyes is really not pretty."

He Kezhou hummed in agreement. "You roll your eyes beautifully."

"It's also very cute."

Ning Xi blinked, thinking she had misheard.

He Kezhou was praising her for being pretty and cute!

The way He Kezhou praised her so earnestly was just too much!

Ning Xi: "Don't try to fool me. Rolling your eyes is so ugly. I'm already out of the subway station, I'm not talking to you anymore. I'm going to the convenience store to buy some rice balls."

She was so hungry.
