She was tricked into marriage for three years, then remarried a childless, tough guy and became preg

"What's going on?!" Ge Aihua shouted sternly.

She looked at the group of people in front of her; they had just finished announcing the rules when they started fighting.

Zhao Wenjing stepped forward, patted her chest, and said:

"I take responsibility for my actions; I was the one who hit him."

Shen Tang frowned and said gently, "Let's clarify things first."

"Shen Tang, are you trying to side with her?" Sun Qian asked in a shrill voice.

"Keep your voice down!" Ge Aihua glared at her.

Sun Qian pursed her lips and didn't say anything more.

"My clothes are too small, and they laughed at me. She called me a pig, and she was the first to laugh," Zhao Wenjing pointed to Yang Xinyue, who was sitting to the side silently wiping away her tears.

Yang Xinyue looked up at Ge Aihua, then pouted and cried again, looking aggrieved.

Zhao Wenjing then pointed at Sun Qian, "She said she's as fat as a pig and doesn't know how she was chosen. Commander, she's questioning your fairness."

"I didn't!" Sun Qian hurriedly said.

"Did you say that or not?" Zhao Wenjing questioned.

"I...I didn't mean that."

Ge Aihua said in a deep voice, "You called her a pig first, and then she hit you, didn't you?"

"I...I didn't insult her," Sun Qian tried to argue.

Ge Aihua looked at her coldly, her face exuding an air of intimidation.

Sun Qian then whispered, "Yes."

Ge Aihua looked up at everyone and said, "Don't think that only physical violence constitutes bullying. Verbal bullying is an even more invisible weapon."

"Zhao Wenjing is tall, and her dance costume didn't fit. None of you offered her any advice; instead, you laughed at her. Is this the kind of awareness expected of a member of a performing arts troupe?"

She turned to Zhao Wenjing and said, "And you, you hit someone, didn't you?"

"No, I'm willing to accept the punishment," Zhao Wenjing said decisively.

"You're willing to accept punishment? What if I let you go home?!" Ge Aihua said sternly. "You're completely disregarding what we say."

"You two," Ge Aihua pointed at Zhao Wenjing and Sun Qian, "go out for a run, five laps around the compound. No food until you finish!"

"Yes!" Zhao Wenjing said and ran out.

Ge Aihua frowned. They did run fast, though; she hadn't even finished speaking!

Sun Qian hesitated before saying, "Commander, she laid a hand on me, so she should be punished severely. I only used my mouth."

"You didn't listen to a word I said. Add two more laps, seven laps," Ge Aihua said angrily.

Sun Qian bit her lip tightly, not daring to say anything more, and ran outside.

Ge Aihua's stern gaze swept over everyone. "Watch your mouth from now on."

Yang Xinyue was still sobbing softly when Ge Aihua glanced at her.

"What other grievances do you have?"

Yang Xinyue forced back her tears and shook her head.

Ge Aihua turned and walked out, and the other two breathed a sigh of relief.

"That scared me to death. Commander Ge is really terrifying when he gets angry."

Shen Tang took Zhao Wenjing's dance costume and looked at it. All the dance costumes were the same size; Zhao Wenjing's needed alterations.

Shen Tang took the clothes, turned around, and went out the door.

In the courtyard, Zhao Wenjing ran with ease. Her grandfather had trained her physical fitness since she was a child, and she had long since developed it.

Five laps were nothing to her.

Sun Qian was out of breath after running only two laps.

Zhao Wenjing ran past her, looking at her with disdain.

Sun Qian was so angry she wanted to bite her teeth, but there was nothing she could do.

She gritted her teeth. Zhao Wenjing, you just wait!

Zhao Wenjing ran five laps with ease and sat on the steps to the side, watching Sun Qian.

"Keep it up!"

Sun Qian's face was covered in sweat, and she didn't even have the strength to be angry. She looked as pathetic as an exhausted dog.

"I'm going to eat now. Take it slow and don't tire yourself out."

Zhao Wenjing gave Sun Qian a sweet smile.

Shen Tang waited at the intersection with the altered dance costume in her hand. When she saw Zhao Wenjing walking over, she went to greet her.

"Wenjing, try this dance outfit on, does it fit? I've altered it for you."

Zhao Wenjing exclaimed in surprise, "You can even alter clothes?"

Shen Tang asked Ge Aihua for an extra dance costume and used the material from two costumes to alter a set for Zhao Wenjing.

Zhao Wenjing followed Shen Tang into the room where she used to live, where the sewing machine had always been kept.

Ge Aihua said that they would come here to use the facilities if needed in the future.

Zhao Wenjing quickly changed into her dance costume and happily twirled around a few times.

"Shen Tang, you're amazing! It fits perfectly!"

Shen Tang was also very happy. Zhao Wenjing was a very straightforward person, without any ulterior motives; such a person would be a good friend.

Shen Tang looked at Zhao Wenjing and said, "Actually, you're not fat at all. You have a very well-proportioned figure and are very beautiful."

Zhao Wenjing has broad shoulders, a narrow waist, and long legs; she has the figure of a true beauty.

His posture is a bit rough, but that can be corrected later.

Zhao Wenjing tilted her head back and said, "I think so too."

Shen Tang laughed. Quite confident.

The two happily went to the cafeteria together.

Yang Xinyue sat at the dining table, her eyes red from crying, while Liu Ping comforted her beside her.

"New Moon, have something to eat."

"Who bullied her?" someone passing by asked.

Yang Xinyue glanced at Zhao Wenjing, then quickly lowered her head again.

Everyone looked at Zhao Wenjing and whispered among themselves:

"This girl doesn't look like someone to mess with. She's bullying people on the very first day. We should stay away from her in the future."

"I heard that he also slapped Sun Qian twice, and her face was swollen."

Zhao Wenjing heard this and didn't tolerate it; she strode over.

Looking at Yang Xinyue coldly, he said, "Those I hit and scolded were all masochists. I wouldn't bear to say a bad word about those who are good to me."

After she finished speaking, she hooked her arm around Shen Tang's and said, "Look everyone, how skillful Shen Tang is! The dance costume she altered for me fits me perfectly."

Everyone gathered around—

"This was modified? I didn't even notice. Your craftsmanship is truly excellent."

"Shen Tang, this outfit doesn't fit me very well either. Could you alter it for me?"

Shen Tang readily agreed, "If anyone has clothes that don't fit, come and find me, but you'll have to take turns."

"Shen Tang, you're so kind!"

Everyone gathered around Shen Tang and began to praise her.

Yang Xinyue was squeezed so tightly that there was nowhere to sit, so she had to stand up and angrily carried her lunchbox back to the dormitory.

Passing by the compound, I saw Sun Qian still running laps, panting heavily.

She felt embarrassed. Sun Qian called her several times, but she pretended not to hear and quickly walked away.

Sun Qian bent over, panting heavily, watching Yang Xinyue walk away.

Is Yang Xinyue deaf? I wonder if she'll even get the food for her.

If she keeps running like this, it'll never be finished.

What will she do when the cafeteria closes down?

Yang Xinyue returned to the dormitory alone, and glared angrily at Shen Tang's bed.

What gives Shen Tang the right?

She should be the center of attention, the one being fawned over.

She wanted to expose Shen Tang's vulgarity and ignorance, to prevent her from joining the performing arts troupe, and to make Lu Jingshen hate and despise her!

Yang Xinyue vengefully pulled out Sun Qian's sewing box, a cold smile appearing on her lips.
