Dad, Please Let Me Solo Push!

The girl shook her head awkwardly. She was like a hedgehog, craving the warmth of human hands but unable to completely lower its defenses, and whispered:

"You don't need to worry about me."

Damn succubus, stay away from me!

Chu Yuanqing remained unmoved. Xiao Shu's rebellious phase was just like this child's.

She had Tang Liuli sit at the desk, ignoring the subtle reluctance and resistance from the other girl, and wrapped her up like a snowball in a bathrobe from the cabinet.

Then, she skillfully took out a hairdryer and began to dry her hair.

Tang Liuli grumbled a few times at first, but as her fingers were gently stroked and the warm air hummed, she gradually became obedient and quiet, like a tamed little animal.

Chu Yuanqing was very patient. Only when she noticed the other girl's expression soften did she ask softly:

"Are you in a bad mood?"

Tang Liuli hesitated for a long time, then nodded and said:

"...Yeah, I don't like being live-streamed."

As she said this, her body, wrapped in the bathrobe, trembled involuntarily. Her long eyelashes drooped, casting a shadow.

Chu Yuanqing was very familiar with this feeling.

--Fear.

In that old era where disaster beasts ran rampant, such negative emotions were the root of all evil.

Chu Yuanqing fell silent for a moment. She seemed to understand why this once immensely popular child star had given up her bright future and announced her retirement.

Someone who feared gazes and attention naturally couldn't survive in the entertainment industry, which was constantly in the spotlight. This wasn't a wise withdrawal, but a helpless retreat due to an illness.

No wonder her performance on stage was so poor.

If not for her excellent vocal and singing skills, it wouldn't be surprising if she had fallen to F-rank because of this fear.

But after so many years, why would Tang Liuli, who still hadn't overcome her condition, participate in Dancing Flash, which had nothing to do with acting?

Chu Yuanqing put down the hairdryer and used a comb to smooth her hair. After a long pause, she finally said:

"Sometimes, you don't have to force yourself to do things you don't like."

"The people who like you surely want you to live life in a way that makes you happy."

Tang Liuli's expression was dazed. She was somewhat attached to the warmth of the other person's fingertips and subconsciously asked:

"What about the people who don't like me?"

Chu Yuanqing replied as a matter of course:

"Why should you care about people who don't like you?"

This was a statement of the obvious, not even really a piece of motivational advice.

Because some truths in the world are like this: they are so simple that even a child can explain them, yet so difficult that very few people can actually practice them.

So when it's said, everyone scoffs, thinking it's utterly boring.

But it was strange, in the heart that nurtured humility and fear, a warm sprout was growing wildly. Images of her mother's hugs from childhood flashed in her mind, and a strange emotion pried open the walls of her heart, quietly spreading.

If I were with this person, would I still be so scared of being filmed? If we slept together, would I not have insomnia anymore?

No! That's not right! Something's wrong!

What am I even thinking? This is like treating Chu Yuanqing like my mom!

Tang Liuli suddenly snapped back to reality. With lightning speed, she flipped the makeup mirror in front of her face onto the table, bit her lip tightly, and buried her head in silence, preventing the other person from seeing her loss of composure.

A dizzy flush, like that of mild intoxication, spread across the girl's beautiful face, her fair skin tinged with pink. The other hand pressed hard against her chest, as if trying to prevent her heart from leaping out, listening to its thumping rhythm.

Am I broken? Chu Yuanqing is even younger than me! I should be the older sister taking care of her!

Chu Yuanqing didn't overthink it. She just habitually tied Tang Liuli's hair into a bun. She wasn't surprised by Tang Liuli's silence.

Because what she had just said was a bit too personal, and it was normal to be considered offensive.

After a brief mental storm, Tang Liuli regained her composure. Her acting skills were excellent, and her expression showed no signs of what had just happened. She asked:

"Why are you back at the dorm?"

"Shouldn't you be practicing choreography with Liang Xiaoxiao in the practice room?"

This was a very legitimate question.

Tang Liuli had returned to the dorm because she was emotionally distraught after the live stream, even contemplating withdrawing from the competition by taking cold baths and exposing herself to cold air to induce a high fever, thus completely escaping public scrutiny.

But in her eyes, Chu Yuanqing was a somewhat naive dreamer with poor dance foundations, who should logically be following the crowd and competing with the other trainees in the dance room.

Chu Yuanqing was stumped and felt a pang of guilt.

Damn it, when I came back to the dorm, I never expected anyone else to be slacking off like me!

Now that she'd been caught, to avoid ruining her persona and being labeled a liar, she had to make up an excuse.

Chu Yuanqing's small face looked serious as she replied:

"Because I only learned one dance, which I prepared for about two weeks before the competition. So I can't even practice the theme song dance on my own. It's better to come back and memorize the lyrics first, and then learn from the instructor tomorrow."

Tang Liuli mused, completely without suspicion. She glanced at the empty dormitory and the camera covered by a towel in the distance. After a moment's hesitation, she said:

"You want to learn candy? There are quite a few things to pay attention to when singing this song. For some parts of the lyrics, you can't let your chest voice be too involved, or it'll sound clunky."

"How about I teach you for a bit first?"
