She Lives without Regret in This Life

"How are you? Where did you fall?" Yang Xiaoman was the first to rush to Lu Dabao's side, flustered and unsure where to check.

"My leg, my leg hurts..." Lu Dabao clutched her right calf, so much in pain she wanted to roll on the ground. But she was also afraid that a bone was broken and didn't dare to move arbitrarily. "Help me find a doctor, help me find a doctor."

"Okay, you wait for me, I'll go right away..." Yang Xiaoman hurriedly got up to look for someone, just as Yang Wenying entered from outside and immediately became furious when she saw the scene.

"What are you standing there for like an idiot? Take her to the medical office." Following behind her was her assistant, who called over a few comrades to quickly carry Lu Dabao to the medical office.

Hai Lan sat on the ground feeling wronged, pressing her foot that had been stepped on as tears slowly slipped from the corners of her eyes.

"Wuu wuu wuu..." Seeing that no one was paying attention to her, she cried out even louder.

"Hai Lan, how are you? Did you fall?" Zhou Xuelian quickly knelt down to ask with concern, "Are you okay? Did you get hurt too?"

"My foot hurts..." Hai Lan said pitifully.

Only then did everyone turn their attention to Hai Lan, seeing her sitting on the ground as if she were unable to get up, they couldn't help but show a hint of disgust. Anyone with clear eyes could see that it was she who had intentionally tripped Lu Dabao, and now here she was, sitting on the ground playing the victim. They aren't blind, did she really think everyone else was that stupid, and only she was smart?

"Hai Lan, what's this pitiful act you're putting on sitting there?" Yang Xiaoman asked sharply. "It was clearly you who deliberately tripped Dabao, you truly disgust me."

After Yang Xiaoman spoke, she made a gesture of extreme aversion and turned to follow the others out. As she reached the door, she paused, looked at Hai Lan with a gaze as if seeing something filthy, and sneered, "Before you came, I had heard that the Hai Family's precious daughter from the General Union Courtyard was gentle, elegant, clever, kind. But you are indeed vicious, detestable, and scheming... Lucky for the Hai Family that you're not their true daughter, otherwise you would have lost all their face."

Yang Xiaoman was usually quiet and uninvolved in disputes at the General Union Song and Dance Troupe. Her words today struck everyone like a bolt of lightning, and Hai Lan was the one stunned to near unconsciousness.

"What... what did you say? I dare you to say that again?" Hai Lan clenched her hand covering her foot tightly, gritting her teeth as she spoke deliberately, "Yang Xiaoman, have the guts to say it again?"

"Hmph! Good words are not said twice, and those repeated are not good words." Yang Xiaoman shivered under Yang Wenying's sharp gaze and didn't dare say anything more, fleeing the scene.

"My goodness! How could she say such things?"

"It's hard to believe that Yang Xiaoman is the one with the sharpest tongue in our General Union Song and Dance Troupe."

Hai Lan hugged her legs, burying her face in her knees, crying her heart out.

The crowd couldn't bear to see her crying and came one after another to comfort her, "Hai Lan, stop crying. Xiaoman was just worried about Dabao and that's why she said those ugly things; she didn't mean them."

"That's right, don't take it to heart!"

Yang Wenying watched everything with cold eyes, her face clearly showing impatience, "Enough!" she shouted, silencing everyone like falling into a deep chill.

"I thought you'd have learned to be sensible after being quiet for a while, but it seems you're still such a headache. What did I tell you last time?"

One by one, they hung their heads, not daring to speak for a long time.

Yang Wenying called out by name, "Zheng Meilin, what did I say last time?"

"Boss, you said last time that if anyone dares to cause strife and discord within the ranks, they would be punished together."
