Xu Mingyu and Li Jianhua arrived at the art troupe early, but they did not go to their respective teams immediately. Instead, they stood not far outside the troupe leader's office.
"How long has she been in there?" Li Jianhua's voice was indescribably tight.
Xu Mingyu glanced at his watch and said, "It's been fifteen minutes."
"I don't know if the leader can keep her."
As Li Jianhua finished speaking, there was silence between the two for more than ten seconds.
Luo Yi from the Southwest Art Troupe has contacted Lin Qing and clearly expressed his desire for Ye Ning and Zheng Shuyun to go over.
Zheng Shuyun has already expressed his attitude to the group leader that he will not leave the Northeastern Art Troupe, but now he still has Ye Ning's attitude.
Now Ye Ning is of great significance to the Northeastern Art Troupe, and they certainly don't want Ye Ning to leave.
However, considering Ye Ning's personal future, going to the Southwest Art Troupe is indeed the best choice. They cannot be an obstacle to Ye Ning, so even though they knew Ye Ning was back these days, they did not ask her for any ideological work in advance.
"No matter what Ye Ning chooses in the end, I will support her. If she really leaves, our musical instrument team will definitely hold a farewell ceremony for her."
Although Xu Mingyu said this, he still didn't want to accept such an ending in his heart.
Li Jianhua didn't say anything. He also had his own plans. As long as Ye Ning was willing to stay here, he would actually have the opportunity to sing in the chorus.
Just as the two of them were getting more and more nervous, the door to the head's office opened.
Lin Qing personally sent Ye Ning out.
Xu Mingyu and Li Jianhua couldn't deduce anything from their expressions. When Ye Ning came out, they couldn't wait to greet her.
"Captain Xu, Captain Li, happy New Year."
Ye Ning took the initiative to greet the two of them.
"Happy New Year."
The two responded in unison.
"Ye Ning, what does the captain want from you?" Xu Mingyu couldn't hold back his anger and asked knowingly.
"The team leader said that the team decided to make an exception for me to be promoted." Ye Ning said truthfully.
In fact, Xu Mingyu and Li Jianhua had known about this for a long time. After all, Ye Ning performed so well in the joint performance, so it was natural for him to advance. Moreover, if the group wants to retain talents like Ye Ning, they must show enough sincerity.
"Then what?"
What they were more concerned about was Ye Ning's fate.
Ye Ning looked at the nervous and uneasy expressions of the two people and knew what they really wanted to ask.
"No more."
"there is none left?"
Xu Mingyu had a shocked expression.
Li Jianhua then said: "It's impossible. Didn't the leader ask you anything?"
The next second, Ye Ning burst into laughter, "I won't tease you anymore. The leader asked me if I wanted to join the Southwest Art Troupe."
"How did you answer?" Looking at her smiling face, Li Jianhua continued to ask.
Ye Ning stopped trying to make excuses and replied directly: "I said it's very nice here, so I won't leave."
Xu Mingyu and Li Jianhua breathed rapidly at the same time, and their four eyes gleamed.
"Really? Are you really not leaving?"
Ye Ning nodded seriously. She had just become familiar with everything here, and she really didn't plan to leave so soon.
"Hahaha! That's great! I told you that you must not let go of everyone, so you won't be blinded by the glory and wealth outside!" Xu Mingyu was so excited that he smiled from ear to ear.
Li Jianhua also breathed a sigh of relief. Although Ye Ning is not a member of the chorus yet, as long as people are here, there will always be hope for the chorus.
In less than a morning, the news of Zheng Shuyun and Ye Ning's rejection of the Southwest Art Troupe's invitation spread throughout the entire art troupe.
Everyone really envied and admired the two of them, and of course some felt sorry for them. After all, what they gave up was a broad road that led to a shortcut.
Zheng Shuyun and Ye Ning once again became celebrities in the entire military region, unparalleled in the limelight.
Compared with the scenery of the two of them, Wang Xinxue was sitting in a small and dark office at this moment, accepting questioning from a specially established investigation team in the regiment.
Her face was haggard and pale, and she still bit the medicine bag containing Ansui Powder.
This interrogation lasted for three full days, ending with Wang Xinxue going on a hunger strike to protest and falling into a coma.
No matter it was the singing team or the instrumental team, no one had any mercy for Wang Xinxue.
The wall fell down and everyone pushed it, it has always been like this.
When Wang Xinxue woke up from the hospital bed in a daze, she heard Li Jianhua talking to the doctor.
"Pregnant? Doctor, are you making a mistake?"
Li Jianhua found it unbelievable. Wang Xinxue didn't even have a boyfriend now, so how could she be pregnant?
"It can't be wrong. Judging from the size of the fetus, it should be about three months old. The patient's body is very weak now and needs to rest well."
The doctor's affirmation left Li Jianhua speechless.
Wang Xinxue wanted to stop it, but it was too late.
The doctor quickly left the ward, and Li Jianhua looked at Wang Xinxue on the bed again, his expression extremely complicated.
He had already contacted Wang Xinxue's family. Her eldest brother was training in the army, but her sister-in-law actually said that they had severed their relationship and refused to come over at all.
Even Wang Xinxue's hospitalization expenses were paid by him in advance.
"Wang Xinxue, are you awake? The doctor said you are three months pregnant. Why didn't you say anything about such a big thing?"
Just now, Li Jianhua saw Wang Xinxue open her eyes, so he concluded that she had woken up.
If she had told her comrades in the investigation team earlier, they would certainly not have used such extreme means to interrogate her.
Wang Xinxue slowly opened her eyes, and tears fell down before she could speak.
"Captain, am I done?"
She got pregnant out of wedlock, was investigated, and even her family had distanced themselves from her. What was the point of living like this?
Li Jianhua swallowed the blame when it reached his lips. Seeing Wang Xinxue like this, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
"Don't think so much now, take good care of yourself first."
"Captain, how will the group punish me? Will I never be the lead singer of the chorus again?" Wang Xinxue said this with difficulty.
Losing her qualification as the lead singer was really more uncomfortable than killing her.
Li Jianhua hesitated to speak. In fact, the regiment had already punished her, and he came here to tell her the news.
"It's all Sun Mengmeng who framed me just because she had a boyfriend who was a leader..." Wang Xinxue muttered through clenched teeth, with a fierce look in her eyes.
Li Jianhua's brows knitted together. Unexpectedly, Wang Xinxue still didn't feel that he had done something wrong.
The reason why she ended up in her current situation was no different from anyone else, and it was all because of her own dark thoughts.
Li Jianhua suddenly felt that his previous indulgence and cover for Wang Xinxue might have been all wrong.
If she still doesn't realize her mistake, I'm afraid she will be even more miserable in the future.
"Xinxue, actually that packet of medicinal powder is not sleeping powder at all, right?"
