Lin Man immediately responded, her tone returning to its cheerful tone.

She smiled at Zhao Yanxi, lifted the curtain, and went out.

Zhao Yanxi stood there, stunned, her heart still pounding.

A few seconds later, she followed them out and saw Wenjing and Huayue standing in front of the mirror, each holding a piece of clothing and trying it on.

Lin Man walked over, naturally took the clothes from Wen Jing's hands, helped her straighten the neckline, and muttered, "This color suits you" and "This style makes you look slimmer."

Wenjing was flattered by her praise and called her "Sister Man" affectionately.

Zhao Yanxi's unease resurfaced.

She went back to the fitting room and changed out of the dress.

Then he sat alone on a small stool in the fitting room and let out a long sigh.

She almost believed what Lin Man said just now.

What about "fear of being abandoned," what about "it's just for fun," what about "I can't live without him"...

He spoke so sincerely, his eyes so earnest, that it softened her heart.

Looking back now, it's highly likely that the vixen was just feigning helplessness to gain sympathy!

If Ding Heng really was just playing around with her, how could he possibly feel comfortable letting her come and help him and Wen Jing prepare for Hua Qing's birthday?

Isn't this blatantly labeling her as "one of our own"?

Zhao Yanxi bit her lip and cursed herself in her heart.

"Zhao Yanxi, Zhao Yanxi, how could you be so careless? You almost got tricked by that vixen!"

She clenched her fists angrily, but the next second, she hesitated.

Lin Man's demeanor and the emotions conveyed in her words... didn't seem like she was acting.

Lin Man's description of her experience staying by Ding Heng's side was indeed similar to her own feelings.

Zhao Yan stared blankly at the mirror in front of her, finally letting out a long sigh.

That fox spirit is incredibly skilled!

We can't beat them, we simply can't beat them!

Chapter 170: Hua Qing's Imminent Return Journey

capital.

The rehearsal ended at 11:00 AM.

Qi Yanran stood in front of everyone and clapped her hands gently.

He waited until everyone's attention was focused on him before slowly issuing the announcement.

"We'll have a holiday starting next week on the 8th and continuing on the 12th. Four days off, take a break, relax, and don't push yourself too hard!"

As soon as he finished speaking, several cheers erupted in the dance studio.

Hua Qing stood beside the barre, wiping the thin layer of sweat from her forehead with a towel, silently calculating in her mind.

We'll have a holiday on the 8th, and continue on the 12th.

It lasted a full four days, two days longer than she had expected.

I'm going back to take care of graduation matters and celebrate my birthday while I'm at it...

Ding Heng had said he would give her a big gift, but he kept it a secret and refused to reveal a single word.

Although Hua Qing didn't want to admit it, she had indeed been hoping for it.

"Huaqing!"

Hua Qing turned her head, and Fan Chenxi had already run up to her.

"Shall we go together?"

"Ah."

Hua Qing bent down to pack her things, stuffing her dance costume into her canvas bag and hanging her water bottle on the bag strap buckle.

The two walked out of the dance studio one after the other and headed out along the corridor.

Fan Chenxi muttered to herself, "Teacher Qi really knows how to pick her timing. The holiday starts on the 8th, which is perfect as it avoids the Qingming Festival peak season. My plane ticket back will even be cheaper..."

Stepping out of the building, the sunlight was warm but gentle.

Fan Chenxi walked toward the shared bicycles by the roadside as usual, and took out her phone to scan the QR code.

"Dawn".

Hua Qing called out to her.

Fan Chenxi turned around: "Hmm?"

Don't ride your bike today.

Hua Qing took out her car keys from her bag and pointed to the parking lot: "I'll drive you there."

Fan Chenxi was surprised, but then happily replied, "Great! Great!"

She jogged to catch up with Hua Qing, and the two walked into the parking lot side by side.

Hua Qing stopped in front of a white domestically produced new energy vehicle, unlocked the door, and Fan Chenxi walked around the car.

"Wow, is this the one that costs over 500,000 yuan?"

"Ah."

Hua Qing opened the car door and sat in the driver's seat, while Fan Chenxi followed and sat in the passenger seat, turning her head to look around the interior.

"You bought it?"

Hua Qing started the car: "No, my boyfriend gave it to me to get around. It just arrived yesterday..."

She spoke in a slightly unnatural tone, and her ears turned slightly red.

Wow, your boyfriend is so good to you.

Fan Chenxi sighed with envy.

Hua Qing didn't reply and slowly drove the car out of the parking space.

"You two have always had a good relationship, haven't you?"

"Everything has been fine..."

Hua Qing's voice was not loud.

I don't know whether to answer Fan Chenxi or to convince myself.

As the car turned onto the main road, Fan Chenxi suddenly asked, "By the way, are you going back to Xingcheng during your vacation?"

"Back."

Hua Qing asked in return, "What's wrong? Is something the matter?"

Fan Chenxi said regretfully, "I originally wanted to invite you to Shanghai."

There will be opportunities in the future.

"Too."

Fan Chenxi didn't dwell on it and quickly cheered up: "Since you're going back to Xingcheng, I might as well stay and practice more. Anyway, I'll be alone when I go back, so I might as well stay in the dance studio and avoid getting last place again."

"If you don't come in last place, then it'll be my turn."

Hua Qing made a self-deprecating remark, but there was no hint of resentment in her words.

During this period, her and Fan Chenxi's scores remained stable between last and second to last, taking turns at the top.

In the past, Hua Qing would never have been able to accept her consistently low ranking.

Perhaps influenced by Fan Chenxi, she now seems much more open-minded.

Some things can't be rushed.

Instead of worrying about rankings every day, focus on doing what needs to be done well, and leave the rest to time.

Fan Chenxi was amused, and after laughing, she looked at Hua Qing seriously.

"Hua Qing, do you think we can become a duo?"

"Let's endure the hardship first, and then see how things go?"

"Too……"

The two looked at each other and smiled.

Because we had a car, the return trip was shorter than usual, and we had less time to chat.

Fan Chenxi unbuckled her seatbelt and turned back to wave at Hua Qing.

"Bye-Bye!"

"Bye-Bye……"

Hua Qing watched Fan Chenxi walk into the building entrance, then turned around and went back to her own apartment.

As she pushed open the door and entered the room, Black Bean suddenly appeared from some corner, rubbing against her feet and making a series of soft "meow" sounds.

Hua Qing bent down to scoop the black beans into her arms, changed into slippers, and sank into the sofa.

Black Bean nestled against her chest, making comfortable purring sounds.

Hua Qing subconsciously took out her phone and opened Ding Heng's chat window.

Her thumb hovered above the screen for a long, long time... but finally she put the phone down.

At this time, the man is either in class or having dinner with Wenjing or Zhao Yanxi.

Last time she called rashly, the phone rang with the sounds of cards being played, and Zhao Yanxi, who had lost so much she was crying and begging, "Don't play anymore," which was quite embarrassing.

"Black Bean, should we go back to find Daddy soon?"

Hua Qing gently rubbed Hei Dou's chin with her fingers, seriously discussing something with a cat.
