She Lives without Regret in This Life

Chapter 497: Chapter 513 Premiere at Hope Field

“Sheng Ning is dancing ‘Butterfly Lovers,’ what are you going to do?” Hope Field is a large-scale song and dance drama, not suitable for this kind of occasion.

“There really isn’t a stage that can compete with ‘Butterfly Lovers.ʼ”

Sheng Ning furrowed her brows, the more important the occasion, the more she could feel the pressure from Yang Wenying. Thus, her competitive spirit was also ignited.

They couldn’t lose, it was the belief of all of them.

Qianjin had Gu Jun for singing and Bai Oulan for dancing; as soon as these two appeared, they completely stole the spotlight.

Sheng Ning suddenly thought of Teacher Qiu Bai’s appearance, whom she had been seeing around for the past month. Could it mean that Hope Field was ready for performance now that he had come to the Research Institute at this time?

But Liu Yilan was not here; without the piano accompaniment, what were they to do?

“Teacher Qiu Bai!” Sheng Ning looked at Qiu Bai with hope, very much wanting to hear a positive response.

“Mmhmm!” Qiu Bai nodded and waved backward, prompting dozens of people to surge into the passage. Each person was carrying an instrument, some of which were even unnameable by them.

In the end, people from the Research Institute actually brought in a piano.

“I can help you this much; you must beat them,” said a man from the Research Institute as he set the piano down, making a special point to greet Qiu Bai before leaving.

Everyone was so excited they were nearly going crazy.

Qiu Bai cleared his throat and said, “We haven’t perfected our performance of Hope Field yet, and many parts don’t meet my expectations. But let’s treat this as a dress rehearsal!”

“Alright, alright, alright…”

“That’s great!”

Sheng Ning led a round of applause, “Teacher Qiu Bai, you’re amazing, you’re truly the savior of the show.”

“Everyone, go change quickly,” urged Qiu Bai.

Whoosh, all at once, everyone left.

*******

At the very front of the stage, Hai Shen and Shen Jianguo had taken the best places. Their team from the Research Institute was one of the finest, and now they had all gathered at the General Union stage, causing quite a stir.

“Captain! Why don’t we go over there to watch?” someone asked boldly.

Shen Jianguo, without taking his eyes off the stage, turned and said, “If you don’t want to watch, then scram.”

“Hehehe… Captain, I want to watch the Union Flower, I won’t scram.”

“Shut your mouth!” Hai Shen couldn’t bear to think how someone would be beaten until unrecognizable later, “Is the Union Flower something you can stare at? Be careful, or Living Yama will pummel you until your own father won’t recognize you.”

The other person shuddered, feeling cold even in the sunlight.

“What about the Union Flower? What’s she got to do with Living Yama?”

“Just remember not to look!” Hai Shen gloated, and after speaking, he gave Shen Jianguo a meaningful glance.

In fact, Shen Jianguo knew that Hai Shen said this for his ears. He lifted his right hand, as if he could still feel the warmth and touch of Sheng Ning’s hand on it, so wonderful that he didn’t even want to wash it.

“I’ll just enjoy the view.”

“Scram, you brat! Do you even know what ‘enjoy’ means?” Hai Shen kicked the person directly.

“Captain, Captain Hai is hitting me.”

Shen Jianguo looked back, “He hits you, and you don’t know to hit back? If you lose later, don’t come crying to me, or you’ll get another beating.”

“Oh, oh!” Shada Dan, hearing his captain say this, rolled up his sleeves and officially challenged Hai Shen.

“Where did this idiot come from?” Hai Shen was so incensed he was left speechless, “Shen Jianguo, did you bring this guy here just to annoy me?”

“Quiet!” Shen Jianguo, who was focused on the stage, suddenly shouted.
