I chuckled to myself and said to a dog, "What good does this do?" 0
Dragging my suitcase, I left without looking back. 0
Behind me, I heard Wenwen barking, seemingly reporting me to Cui Xiangdong. 0
I stopped in my tracks and turned to look at it. "If you bark again, I'll throw you out." 0
Wenwen shrank back, too scared to make a sound. 0
I smiled in satisfaction. "That's more like it." 0
As I reached the door, I saw Cui Xiangdong standing there, looking coldly at me. 0
"A good dog doesn't block the way, move aside." 0
His expression darkened. "Yang Fangfang!" 0
"What is it? Do you have any advice, Mr. Cui?" 0
"You..." he gritted his teeth, "don't you really regret it?" 0
"Of course not," I shrugged. "What do I have to regret?" 0
His face darkened even more. 0
But unfortunately, I no longer cared. 0
I dragged my small suitcase and left without looking back. 0
Cui Xiangdong, goodbye. 0
Never to see you again. 0
I left with all my belongings. 0
There were my dreams. 0
Once I arrived in the city, I rented a room and started sending out resumes in search of a job. 0
Unfortunately, after graduating for several years without any work experience, almost no dance troupe wanted me. 0
I didn't give up and continued sending out resumes. 0
One day, I went for an interview at a dance troupe and ran into someone familiar. 0
Dong Hua. 0
 
 
She is my colleague, and we joined the Dance Troupe together. I had a good relationship with her, but I haven't seen her since I got married. She is now the lead dancer of a prominent Dance Troupe. Seeing her makes me feel a bit awkward. 0
 
When she sees me, she looks shocked. "Fangfang, what are you doing here? Didn't you marry President Cui?" 0
 
I smile lightly and say, "I got divorced." 0
 
She doesn't seem surprised. "I figured as much; otherwise, you wouldn't be out working." 0
 
"Yeah." 0
 
She looks at me, hesitating to speak. 0
 
"What's wrong?" 0
 
She sighs. "Fangfang, you shouldn't be in such a predicament." 0
 
"Huh?" 0
 
"Don't you remember? You were once the hope of our Dance Troupe; you were meant to represent the country on the world stage." 0
 
I pause for a moment and then smile. "I haven't forgotten." 0
 
"But you..." 0
 
"I'm just temporarily down on my luck." 0
 
"Can you still dance?" She looks at me with concern. "You haven't danced in almost three years." 0
 
"Of course," I nod. "I can do it." 0
 
"That's good." She breathes a sigh of relief. "I was worried about you..." 0
 
"Don't worry," I pat her shoulder. "I'll get back on my feet." 0
 
She smiles at me. "I believe in you." 0
 
I believe in myself too. I was once a dove soaring in the sky; I shouldn't be trapped in a cage. Goodbye, Cui Xiangdong. 0
 
 
My life has just begun. Dong Hua gave me a chance. I joined her Dance Troupe. I told her, "Don't worry, I won't make things difficult for you; I'll let my skills speak for themselves." She raised an eyebrow and said, "That's good." 0
 
I'm older now, and I haven't danced in a long time, so many of my techniques have become rusty. To keep up with everyone, I practiced day and night. I trained until my whole body ached and my toes bled, but I didn't care at all. Sometimes, Dong Hua couldn't bear to watch. 0
 
"Fangfang, you weren't like this before, practicing day and night. Take it easy." I smiled and replied, "I'm not the same as I used to be." 0
 
"What's different?" 0
 
"Now there's you." 0
 
She paused for a moment and then laughed, "You used to see me as a competitor." 0
 
"Aren't we still competitors?" 0
 
"Yes," she nodded, "but also dance partners." 0
 
I smiled slightly, "Right, we will always be dance partners." Dong Hua gave me a chance, and I didn't let her down. Soon enough, I got the opportunity to perform on stage. On the day of the performance, I saw Cui Xiangdong and his little lover, Ma Tingting. Dong Hua patted my shoulder and said, "Dance well; don't let them affect you." 0
 
"Don't worry." I took a deep breath and walked onto the stage. 0
