Chapter 402 Li Xingyue is expelled from the cultural troupe
That day, Li Xingyue overheard Jiang Ting and Xu Duoduo talking and had a conflict with them. She clearly felt that she had been targeted recently.
While practicing in the dance studio, the laces on her dance shoes suddenly broke.
During training, someone deliberately notified her of the time half an hour late, causing her to be severely criticized when she arrived.
This situation violates work discipline and regulations.
If this happens a few more times, she will be expelled from the performing arts troupe.
The third time she was late for training, this time she wasn't given a demerit, but was directly summoned to the deputy commander's office.
The office not only housed the deputy head of the regiment, but also Jiang Ting.
Li Xingyue knew she had made a mistake by being late for training, and at that moment she hung her head.
Upon seeing Li Xingyue, the deputy regimental commander immediately rebuked her, "Li Xingyue, just because you have a regimental commander as your father, you think you can disregard training? Your father is an officer, but he is first and foremost a soldier. He must follow the military orders. How dare you disregard them?"
"I didn't! I was the deputy commander..." Li Xingyue opened her mouth, wanting to refute, but the deputy commander interrupted her.
"It's only been five days, and you've already made three mistakes. I think the performing arts troupe is no longer a good fit for you!"
Li Xingyue wasn't a pillar of the performing arts troupe, and now she's made several mistakes. With the power of the deputy troupe leader, dismissing her wouldn't be a problem.
Li Xingyue quickly explained, "Deputy Commander, I didn't mean to be late for training, someone..."
Jiang Ting interrupted her, "Li Xingyue, making a mistake is making a mistake. As long as you know it and can correct it, that's fine. We only care about the result. Don't talk nonsense."
"If you want to bring your father, the regimental commander, to argue with us, we're on the side of reason."
Li Xingyue never intended to use her father's position for any personal gain.
She earned her place in the performing arts troupe through her daily hard work and practice.
However, she underestimated the competition within the performing arts troupe.
But she was unwilling to leave the performing arts troupe like this. Li Xingyue said, "Deputy troupe leader, someone deliberately told me the wrong training time, which is why I was late for training. You can call Wang Xiaohui and Li Fen to confront me. They are the ones who told me the training time every day!"
As she spoke, she took out her notebook for recording time, which was a habit of hers. She pushed the notebook in front of the deputy commander, saying, "This is where I record my daily training time, proving that I am not lying."
Jiang Ting glanced at it, raised an eyebrow, and said, "Who knows if the time on this was written before we called you here?"
The deputy commander also frowned and said, "The dates on this notebook really don't prove anything."
"Besides..." Jiang Ting continued, "Wang Xiaohui and Li Fen are both training right now. How can they have time to confront you? If the time they give doesn't match the time in your notebook, you're not only wasting their time, but also my and the deputy commander's time!"
At this moment, the deputy commander also said, "Li Xingyue, it is a fact that you were late for training."
Only then did Li Xingyue realize what it meant to be a mute eating bitter melon, unable to express her suffering.
She had already offered explanations, but the deputy commander wouldn't let Wang Xiaohui and Li Fen, who had given her the wrong time, confront her. Instead, he immediately accused her of being at fault.
Her gaze swept over Jiang Ting.
The responsibility then fell to the deputy regimental commander.
At that moment, she finally realized that she was being targeted.
She had only argued with Jiang Ting about 'fairness', yet she was targeted like this.
The deputy troupe leader said, "Li Xingyue, given your repeated lateness to training, disregard for the troupe's rules and regulations, and attempts to seek special treatment, I am now formally informing you of your expulsion from the cultural troupe."
Li Xingyue's face paled.
She never imagined that just a few casual words would render all her efforts in the performing arts troupe futile.
After being expelled from the performing arts troupe, Li Xingyue quietly packed her things and returned to the family compound.
On her way home to the family compound, Jiang Ting followed her without her noticing.
With an arrogant smile on her face, Jiang Ting mocked Li Xingyue, "Li Xingyue, when you offended me, did you ever think this day would come?"
Li Xingyue never expected that even after she was fired, Jiang Ting would still come after her to mock her.
This was the most petty woman she had ever met.
She said, "We compete fairly in the troupe. Just because you're less skilled than others doesn't mean you can't allow others to be better than you?"
Hearing Li Xingyue say that she was better than her, Jiang Ting's face turned ugly. "How are you better than me? Aren't you just relying on having a regimental commander as your father?"
Li Xingyue remained silent for a moment.
She realized that Jiang Ting and she were simply incomparable.
If she really wanted to take advantage of her father's influence, she could have been the head of the arts and literature department.
Jiang Ting couldn't beat her in dancing, nor could she have a better background.
Jiang Ting harbors hatred towards anyone who is better off than her.
She hated anyone who was doing better than her, Jiang Ting.
Now, thanks to her researcher father's connections, Jiang Ting has become a cadre, and the more people fawn over her, the more satisfied she becomes.
On the other hand, those who don't fawn over her are a thorn in her side.
With someone like Jiang Ting in the performing arts troupe, it's better not to stay there.
Now that Zuo You has been expelled from the performing arts troupe, Li Xingyue quickened her pace to go home, completely ignoring Jiang Ting who was jumping around in front of her.
Seeing her attitude, Jiang Ting felt like she had punched a cotton ball.
The other party is neither hurt nor affected.
She felt very uncomfortable not seeing Li Xingyue's furious expression.
*
Jiang Ting was walking towards the camp with a bad expression.
Just as I stepped out of the residential compound, I ran into Huo Zhiqi, who was returning from school.
Zhiqi saw her and suddenly walked towards her.
He watched as Jiang Ting rolled up her sleeve, revealing her bruised and battered arm. "Auntie, Mom hit me."
