Cao Jing was about to give Ru Mei a piece of her mind, but when she walked out of the dance troupe's gate, she saw that it was already quite dark. The small park across the street had many trees, giving off a dark and gloomy atmosphere.
She swallowed back her harsh words and instead said, "Rumei, would you come with me to the small park across the street?"
Ru Mei asked warily, "What are you doing?"
Cao Jing said, "A relative is waiting for me there with his child. He asked me to help him see if his daughter is suitable for gymnastics... You practiced gymnastics when you were a child, so you're more professional than me. Could you help him take a look?"

On the way, Cao Jing suddenly remembered that she hadn't written a receipt yet, so she made an excuse that she had left something behind and ran back to her workplace.
