nLin Xiyan thought it was a pervert stirring up trouble. When she looked up and saw Qiao Qing’s beautiful but cold face, she froze, “Qingqing, what are you doing here?”

nQiao Qing tightly pressed onto her clothes and half carried and half pulled her backstage, “Don’t ask so much. Follow me.”

nOffstage, Jun Yexuan’s face was dark like coal. Though he was aware of what was happening, to see Qiao Qing hug someone so tightly made him uncomfortable. Even though it was a woman!

nThe students were completely flabbergasted by why Qiao Qing suddenly crashed onto the stage and carried Lin Xiyan away. They exchanged glances and didn’t know what was happening.

nOnly Fu Siying slammed her fist onto her chair. That b!tch always ruins her plans!

nBecause everyone was dancing the same routine, missing one person didn’t affect the class performance.

nAfter Qiao Qing and Lin Xiyan got to one of the stalls in the change room, they finally sighed in relief.

nLin Xiyan asked while bluffing, “Qingqing, can you tell me what is going on?”

nQiao Qing, “… You don’t feel anything?”

nLin Xiyan was confused, “Feel what?”

nQiao Qing gently coughed, “Don’t be scared.”

nAfter warning her, she let go of the hand that was firmly pressing onto Lin Xiyan’s clothes. At the same time, she turned around to face the door.

nThe next second, Lin Xiyan screamed as loud as humanly possible.

nMu Jinghang, who was hiding just outside of the girl’s change room cursed silently. What was happening?

nThe two girls went into the change room hugging each other and one of them screamed as if someone was harassing her.

nIf his third brother was here, he would’ve rushed in for sure.

nLin Xiyan stared at her naked two legs for a long time, “The quality of this set of clothes sure is bad!”

nQiao Qing, “…”

nThis naivety… how will she survive the entertainment industry without her protection?

n“If I’m not wrong, someone did something to your clothes.”

nColdness flashed across Qiao Qing’s eyes.

nThen, she leaned into the door and stuck out her toes so it peeked outside.

nWhile pressed against the door, she asked, “Where’re your clothes.”

nLin Xiyan was still shocked by the information and answered simply, “Change room stall 6.”

nQiao Qing went to get her clothes and tossed them to her.

nThen, she leaned to the side, took out her phone, and plugged in her earplugs.

nAfter some manipulation on her cell, her screen showed her 12 different surveillance videos throughout this building.

nWhen Fu Siying showed up in one of the videos, Qiao Qing did not appear at all surprised.

nAfter witnessing Fu Siying talking to one of Lin Xiyan’s classmates, Qiao Qing’s eyes turned colder.

nShe duplicated the surveillance video and sent it to Lang Yin. At the same time, she added the text, “Time for work.”

nJust as she finished all this, the change room stall’s door opened and Lin Xiyan walked out.

n“Qingqing, what did you mean by what you said? Someone purposely damaged my clothes so I’d embarrass myself on stage?”

n“But when I left, most of the girls were still changing. Plus, we all have a good relationship.”

nQiao Qing looked afar as if reminiscing. Scenes from the past flashed before her eyes.

n“Xiyan, remember, the world isn’t as nice as you imagine it to be. People also do not treat each other fairly all the time.”

n“A moment of greed can inject all the bad thoughts into a person. It’s enough to make them harm others.”

n“If you want to work in the entertainment industry, you cannot be as naive as you are now.”

n“You cannot guard yourself enough from others’ ill intent. I will do my best to protect you, but there will be times when I miss things.”
