Up ahead.
Jiang Changning had already finished the call.
Unfamiliar with first aid, all she could do was take note of the womanâs features.
She examined the womenâs qipao, as well as the elegant embroidery.
The fabric was clearly not from Lincheng and was undoubtedly expensive; the embroidery, clearly hand-stitched.
âSurvival rate: 30%, 40%,â Si Fuqing remained crouched on the ground, a soft glow twinkling in her eyes as she uttered numbers. â55%â¦â
By this time, the assistant was drawing dangerously close.
Just a few more steps, and she could reach out to unmask the mysterious girl.
Behind, Xu Ruotong, who had been watching the whole time, was already gripping her phone, ready to snap a picture.
Si Fuqing kept her head low. Her form remained still, one hand pressing on the womanâs ribcage and the other firmly grasping her acupoints.
Only her toes lightly tapped the ground.
âWhooshââ
A small stone shot out, flying directly at the approaching assistant, followed by two more that accurately struck her knees.
âThump!â
Jiang Changning turned her head at the sound, just in time to see someone kneeling awkwardly in front of them, forehead even touching the ground.
Behind this person, a woman with sunglasses was holding a phone, clearly taken aback by the unexpected turn of events.
Si Fuqing, having completed the emergency first aid, gracefully tucked her windblown hair behind her ears. âSee, Ningning? Now, thatâs what I call a sccun.
Jiang Changning:
She frowned. âI saw this woman at the audition. Is she a problem for you?â
âNot particularly concerned,â Si Fuqing said nonchalantly. âDid you call?â Jiang Changning nodded. âThey said theyâll be here in three minutes.â A large hospital was nearby, so the ambulance arrived quickly.
Medical personnel rushed the unconscious woman onto the ambulance, leaving behind a nurse who took down Si Fuqing and Jiang Changningâs names.
Si Fuqing flexed her wrists and lightly patted Jiang Changningâs face. âLetâs go, letâs go eat hotpot.â
Jiang Changning looked at her, a hint of inquiry in her eyes. âYou know medical treatment?â
âItâs okay,â Si Fuqing replied casually. âLearned it from a game. Do you have any issues with chronic pain in your legs during cold days? I can take a look.â Jiang Changning was unimpressed.
Although Si Fuqingâs vivacity was a welcome change, conversations like this always made it hard for her to keep her knife sheathed.
Si Fuqing shoved her hands into her pockets and ambled forward.
She had raised the womanâs chances of survival to 70%.
If the hospital couldnât save her with that, they might as well all be fired.
After Si Fuqing and Jiang Changning left, Xu Ruotong finally approached, grabbing her assistantâs ear in frustration. âCanât even handle this simple task.
You trip while walking. What are you good for?!â
The assistant, a young girl in her early twenties, looked on the verge of tears. âSister Xu⦠â
âEnough, useless thing,â Xu Ruotong snorted. âIâll do it myself.â
She was determined to unmask Si Fuqing.
Meanwhile, at the âYouth With Youâ training base.
When Si Fuqing returned, Xie Yu and Xu Xiyun, among the six, were still training.
âVery good, keep up this pace,â she observed and nodded. âYour first performance is coming up; youâll need to coordinate better.â
âItâs all thanks to Teacher Siâs excellent guidance,â Xu Xiyun said, his eyes shining. âTeacher Si, we have to pick a song for the next episode. Which one do you think we should go with?â
Si Fuqing nodded. âIâll let you know when the time comes.â
Xie Yu stopped dancing and turned towards Si Fuqing, pausing for a few seconds before asking, âTeacher Si, have you ever heard of the person Yun
Lan?â
âWho?â Si Fuqing wiped her sweat with a tissue, her expression unchanging.
âNever heard of her.â
âReally, Teacher Si?â Xu Xiyun jumped up, visibly excited. âYun Lan! The recipient of the Glenn Lifetime Achievement Award!â
The Glenn Lifetime Achievement Award represented the highest honor in the entertainment industry. Over the hundred-plus years since Glennâs establishment, only five people had ever received the award. Yun Lan was the only one from Great Xia.
But she was an enigma.
Even artists who were regulars at Glenn had no clue about her identity.
Four years ago, Yun Lan had suddenly retired without any announcement and hadnât been seen since.
Only her fans continued to wait.
In industry gossip, Yun Lan was said to be close friends with Qu Lingyun, Great Xiaâs top director.
The female lead in Qu Lingyunâs Glenn award-winning film was Yun Lan herself.
Yet even Qu Lingyun didnât know where she had gone.
An international film queen, Yun Lan had vanished without a trace.
In the entire entertainment world, if Yun Lan was second, no one dared to claim the first place.
âI see,â Si Fuqing leaned back, resting her chin on her hand. âSheâs really amazing. I should learn from her.â
Xie Yuâs gaze remained locked on her. âI thought Teacher Si was quite fond of Senior Yun Lan.â
Si Fuqing sat back in her plush chair, crossing her legs. âWhy would you think
âThe dance you performed last time had a few moves that were identical to Senior Yun Lanâs,â Xie Yu said with a slight smile. âIf the real person were here, anyone would pause for at least three seconds.â
âIâm flattered. I just practiced casually,â Si Fuqing yawned. âYun Lan is in another league; I canât compare.â
âThen Teacher Si is truly amazing,â Xu Xiyun said with a face full of admiration. âIf you ever win the Glenn Lifetime Achievement Award in the future, you must take me along.â
Si Fuqing raised an eyebrow. âThatâs not out of the question.â
âBeep, beep, beep!â
Just then, a series of short, piercing sirens resounded, startling the trainees in the base.
âWhatâs going on?â Xu Xiyun peeked down and paused. âWhy are there so many people gathered below, and police cars?â
âNever mind that,â Si Fuqing said without even lifting her eyes. âContinue practicing.â
But before Xu Xiyun could resume, the door to the dance studio was pushed open.
Leading the way was an elegantly dressed, high-society woman, followed by two police officers.
âItâs her, Officer,â the woman pointed at Si Fuqing, her expression icy. âShe hit my sister on the road and ran away, trying to evade responsibility.. You must take her away immediately!â
