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

Shen Tang frowned, then quickly spun around, increasing the range of her movements, and successfully dodged Yang Xinyue's ambush.

Wow—that's amazing!

Everyone couldn't help but applaud as they watched Shen Tang's light and graceful dance moves.

The audience only saw the brilliance on stage, and no one noticed that Shen Tang had dodged Yang Xinyue's "hidden arrow".

Shen Tang turned around and gave Yang Xinyue a cold look.

Is that all you've got?

She turned around and danced to the rhythm of the music, becoming the star of the entire stage, completely overshadowing Yang Xinyue.

Amidst the applause, Shen Tang danced with increasing passion.

Back in the day, she was a star in the ballet competition.

Ballet is her forte.

Yang Xinyue and Sun Qian's actions backfired, giving her an extra opportunity to showcase her talents.

Yang Xinyue looked at the confident and elegant Shen Tang, a hint of resentment flashing in her eyes.

Shen Tang, do you think this is the end?

Yang Xinyue adjusted her breathing and went back onto the court.

The two interacted on stage, looking like two happy, playful swans.

The scene was beautiful, but it concealed a murderous intent.

Yang Xinyue's breathing gradually became rapid. She had studied it before and was very talented, but she hadn't practiced at such a high intensity for a long time, and she didn't exercise regularly or even do housework.

She was starting to feel the strain.

Shen Tang held her chin high, her breathing remaining steady.

Yang Xinyue gritted her teeth and persevered.

She was unwilling to be outdone by Shen Tang!

Yang Xinyue's legs suddenly gave way, and she cried out in alarm.

Immediately, she quickly adjusted her direction and fell towards Shen Tang.

"oops--"

Yang Xinyue exclaimed in surprise.

Shen Tang dodged to the side, but unexpectedly, Yang Xinyue's foot stretched out horizontally.

Shen Tang was on guard against Yang Xinyue, but she didn't expect her to trip her. This could potentially injure both of their ankles.

She's willing to use any means necessary to do evil!

That's really ruthless.

Yang Xinyue stared at Shen Tang with cold eyes, a smile tugging at the corner of her lips.

Whether she joins the performing arts troupe or not is not that important. What she wants is to drag Shen Tang back into the mire!

Shen Tang was originally a rural woman who couldn't compare to her in anything, so why should she be able to outshine her on stage?

The training period is only one month. If Shen Tang twists her ankle or breaks her leg, she will be eliminated immediately.

Yang Xinyue gritted her teeth, waiting for Shen Tang's foot to trip over her.

Shen Tang frowned; she wanted to dodge, but it was too late.

"Ah—" came a gasp from the crowd.

It looked like the two of them were about to fall.

Shen Tang gritted her teeth, now only thinking about how to roll over to reduce the chance of injury.

Suddenly a cool breeze blew by, and she fell into a firm embrace.

Shen Tang looked up in a daze, and Huo Xiuyuan's rugged face came into view.

His expression was cold, serious, and even carried a hint of murderous intent.

Shen Tang's heart was pounding, she could hear Huo Xiuyuan's thunderous heartbeat in her ears, and her hands were on his hard, hot chest muscles, which she unconsciously squeezed.

Huo Xiuyuan suddenly looked down at her, his pupils contracting sharply.

This woman... at this moment, actually...

His ears turned bright red instantly.

He frowned and helped Shen Tang up.

Huo Xiu clenched his knuckles, and the veins on the exposed half of his forearm bulged.

"Are you alright?" he asked in a deep voice.

"It's alright." Shen Tang breathed a sigh of relief.

Shen Tang turned to look at Yang Xinyue, who had just fallen heavily to the ground.

She was frowning and rubbing her ankle.

Yang Xinyue lowered her eyes, her molars almost grinding to powder.

Damn it! Shen Tang managed to dodge it.

"Xinyue, are you alright?" Sun Qian rushed over.

Yang Xinyue raised her wet eyes and looked at Shen Tang with a wronged expression.

Sun Qian immediately understood. She turned and pointed at Shen Tang, saying sternly:

"Shen Tang, you're really wicked! You'd resort to underhanded tactics just to outdo Xinyue!"

Shen Tang sneered and looked at Yang Xinyue: "What underhanded tricks did I use?"

Sun Qian chimed in, "You deliberately cornered Xinyue, and then tripped her when we weren't looking!"

After hearing Sun Qian's words, everyone started discussing it:

"Was it Shen Tang who hit him? I didn't see clearly!"

"I didn't see clearly either. Maybe they spun too fast and collided?"

Ge Aihua frowned; she couldn't see it from this angle either.

Huo Xiuyuan walked up to Yang Xinyue, looked down at her, his eyes cold and sharp:

"Did Shen Tang knock you down? Think it over before you speak."

Yang Xinyue met Huo Xiuyuan's cold gaze and felt a sense of panic.

Huo Xiuyuan's eyes seemed to see right through her, his gaze sharp and penetrating, carrying a hint of disgust.

Yang Xinyue bit her lip and didn't say anything. She glanced at Shen Tang, then quickly lowered her head again.

Upon seeing this, Sun Qian shouted at the top of her lungs:

"You don't need to scare Xinyue. It was Shen Tang who tripped her; I saw it!"

"You saw it?" Huo Xiuyuan asked coldly. "Do you dare to take responsibility for your words? If what you said is false, withdraw from the cultural troupe selection!"

Sun Qian opened her mouth, but she certainly wouldn't risk her future just to frame Shen Tang.

Yang Xinyue quickly tugged at Sun Qian's sleeve, lowered her eyes, and whispered:

"It's not Shen Tang's fault, it was my own carelessness."

"new moon……"

Sun Qian frowned in resentment.

Why not take advantage of such a good opportunity to frame someone?

Anyway, no one saw it. As long as she insists that Shen Tang tripped her, she won't be able to explain herself even if she has a hundred mouths.

Even if it ends without any resolution, Shen Tang will be the one who suffers and becomes the subject of gossip.

Huo Xiuyuan was outside the window just now and saw everything clearly.

"If you can't stand firm yourself, don't drag others down with you," Huo Xiuyuan said coldly.

The team members looked at each other.

It turns out that it wasn't Shen Tang who knocked down Yang Xinyue, but rather Yang Xinyue who almost caused Shen Tang to get injured.

Ge Aihua also sensed something amiss from Huo Xiuyuan's words.

Ge Aihua glared at Sun Qian: "Stop playing those useless tricks. Show your real skills, that's what makes you impressive!"

She then looked at Yang Xinyue: "Yang Xinyue, how are you? Can you hold on? If not, have your parents take you back."

Yang Xinyue frowned deeply.

She twisted her ankle earlier, and it still hurts a bit.

But she didn't want to delay her training any longer.

She gritted her teeth and said, "I'm fine."

"Sun Qian, help her back to rest. The rest of you continue," Ge Aihua called out.

Sun Qian glanced at Shen Tang with resentment, then helped Yang Xinyue walk towards the dormitory.

Yang Xinyue clenched her fists again.

She couldn't understand why Shen Tang could dance ballet.

Zhao Wenjing pursed her lips at Yang Xinyue and the other person's retreating figures. The annoying people are finally gone.

She strode forward: "I'll perform a segment from Peking Opera—'Taking Tiger Mountain by Strategy'!"

"Great!" Everyone applauded enthusiastically.

The crowd gathered around, and the dance studio became lively again.

Shen Tang stepped aside, looked at Huo Xiuyuan beside her, and walked towards him.

She leaned slightly forward, her arm gently brushing against Huo Xiuyuan's hand.

She tilted her head to look at him: "Thank you, Commander Huo, for saving the damsel in distress."
