Tomorrow...

Lu Xiaoxiao pressed her lips together.

Would tomorrow be her lucky day?

Hmm...

Forget it.

She wasn't greedy.

All she wanted was for nothing unlucky to happen to her tomorrow.

Lu Xiaoxiao silently prayed a few times.

Before she knew it, she had drifted into a deep, sweet sleep.

After everything that had happened today...

She really was exhausted.

Both mentally and physically.

The next day, from getting up and washing up to having breakfast in the cafeteria, and finally reaching the dance studio, Lu Xiaoxiao couldn't stop a huge smile from spreading across her face.

Bathed in the morning sunlight, she looked all the more radiant.

"Great!"

Lu Xiaoxiao spread her arms wide.

"Safe and sound."

"What's safe and sound?"

Someone approached them.

"Little Deer, are you still half asleep?"

Why else would she be acting so silly?

"Qiqi."

Seeing the familiar face, Lu Xiaoxiao's lips curved into a smile.

She didn't mind the girl teasing her.

After all, she really was happy.

She waved.

"Aw, you wouldn't understand."

Qiqi's eyebrows twitched.

"What wouldn't I understand?"

"Do you guys understand?"

She looked at Ye Zimeng and the others.

She'd only meant it as a joke.

She hadn't expected them to actually agree.

Ye Zimeng and the others nodded in unison, as if they shared an unspoken understanding.

They understood.

How could they not?

Ever since they'd opened their eyes that morning, they'd been worrying right alongside Lu Xiaoxiao.

Even though none of them had shown it.

Their quiet protectiveness toward Lu Xiaoxiao said everything.

Every one of them had been on edge.

Now, at this very moment, they felt...

They could probably let themselves relax a little, couldn't they?

Huh?

Qiqi blinked.

"What are you all being so cryptic about?"
