Chapter 53 I Can't Help Myself



Zhao Wanwan saw Zhao Qingxia's surprised look and moved forward to take a look. When her eyes fell on the three words "ethnic dance", she also showed a look of surprise.

She thought it was some kind of dance, but it turned out to be a folk dance!

You know, it is very difficult to dance folk dance with charm, let alone solo dance. It takes at least several years of experience. Even their troupe's lead dancer, Sun Manting, may not be able to dance with that feeling.

But Zhou Yunwan actually dared to sign up for such a program right at the start. I really don’t know whether she is bold and talented, or ignorant and fearless.

The stage for the evening party is so big that it is generally difficult to attract the audience's attention unless the dance is particularly graceful.

Moreover, when judging the awards at the end, the judges will also prefer group programs with a larger number of people, such as sketches, chorus, etc. After all, group programs have more advantages in terms of effect and eye-catchingness.

The reason she attended this evening party was not because of the prizes, but because of the senior leaders of the art troupe who were present that day. Last year, Sun Manting was promoted to lead dancer because of her outstanding performance.

This year, the street office asked the art troupe to prepare a program, and Sun Manting, as the lead dancer, will definitely steal the show. As a nobody in the art troupe, she can only increase her chances of winning awards and getting exposure by preparing other programs, so that the leaders can see this hidden gem.

But the methods she could think of were naturally also thought of by other girls in the art troupe, so the competition for spots in this year's evening party was extremely fierce.

...

...

With so many professional dancers participating in the art troupe, Zhou Yunwan's program would probably be eliminated in the first round of selection.

But it's better this way, as there is one less strong competitor. After all, if we don't talk about strength, Zhou Yunwan's face and figure are indeed worthy of vigilance, but country people are country people, and it's obvious that she will never be able to make a name for herself.

Thinking of this, Zhao Wanwan couldn't help but feel overjoyed.

Zhou Yunwan did not miss the smile that Zhao Wanwan couldn't suppress, but she was not a worm in her stomach, so she couldn't see the little thoughts hidden in her heart.

After wondering for a few seconds, he confirmed with Zhao Qingxia that he could leave after submitting the registration form, and then left without looking back.

Zhou Yunwan returned to the Shen family in the cold wind and found a familiar figure in the kitchen. It turned out that Aunt Wang received a call from Guo Yulin and came back a day earlier after learning what happened in the hospital.

Zhou Yunwan chatted with Aunt Wang for a while, and then asked about Shen Yanli who was not on the first floor.

Aunt Wang was cooking millet porridge. Hearing this, she pointed upstairs and said, "Professor Shen just came back from his morning run and went upstairs to change the medicine. But I saw that he couldn't operate it with one hand, so I was thinking about whether I should go upstairs and ask if he needed help. It just so happened that you came back, Xiaowan."

Aunt Wang had worked as a nanny in the Shen family for many years. In addition, she was related to Guo Yulin, so the Shen family had always been very nice and caring to her, so nice that they almost treated her as a family member.

It is precisely because of this that she should pay more attention to her sense of boundaries, so except for cleaning, she usually does not go to the second floor, and she will not ask about things that she should not ask about.

When Shen Yanli came back just now, he had already said that it was not a big deal, so she shouldn't have continued to ask, but she was indeed worried about the injury on his arm.

Although Zhou Yunwan had not lived in the Shen family for a long time, her identity was different from hers, and Shen Yanli was injured in order to save her, so it would be much more appropriate for her to ask.

Zhou Yunwan heard her hint, and said, "I'll go take a look."

Seeing that she agreed, Aunt Wang smiled and said, "By the way, Xiao Wan, Director Guo also said that he will come back with the leader at noon. The hospital's dean, secretary, and reporters from the newspaper will also come. Remember to tell Professor Shen as well."

Zhou Yunwan paused when she heard this.

Such a big accident happened. For the hospital, both emotionally and logically, the relevant person in charge of the hospital should express due condolences and concern to the victim of this incident, that is, her.

Also, Shen Yanli and several other soldiers helped stop the riot. Even if the hospital doesn't send a banner, it should at least show some appreciation.

Doing so will not only help maintain the hospital's reputation, but also promote the spirit of bravery and righteousness, so she didn't find it strange that someone came to the hospital.

But she didn't expect that it would even alarm the newspaper. Well, in this era when violence is not so serious, a major incident of stabbing people in public must have a separate column for reporting.

In her previous life, she had faced interviews from reporters almost every day, and she had already become very comfortable with it. But for some reason, when she suddenly heard that reporters were coming, she actually felt a little nervous.

Zhou Yunwan gathered her thoughts and simply sorted out her emotions before going upstairs and knocking on Shen Yanli's door.

Not long after, Shen Yanli quickly came over to open the door. He had a coat draped over his shoulders and his left sleeve was rolled up to his elbow. It looked like he was just about to change the dressing or gauze.

As if he noticed her gaze, he deliberately hid his left arm behind his back and calmly changed the subject: "Have you submitted the registration form?"

When Zhou Yunwan saw his injured arm, she immediately remembered the thrilling scene yesterday. Her heart skipped a beat, and she replied absentmindedly, "Well, I just handed it over to Director Zhao."

Shen Yanli noticed her wandering mind and stepped aside to let her into the house to talk.

Zhou Yun had come in once before in the evening. This time she was not so nervous or curious. She looked around casually and found that there were no major changes.

On the wooden table were some gauze, disinfectants and other medicines, all of which were prescribed by the hospital yesterday.

Zhou Yunwan turned around and said to Shen Yanli, “Aunt Wang and I are very worried about your injury. We were afraid that you couldn’t handle it alone, so I thought of coming up to see if there was anything I could do to help.”

Shen Yanli didn't want to trouble her. His injured part was his left arm, and it wasn't somewhere out of reach. He could handle it alone, so he subconsciously wanted to refuse.

But when he looked at her sparkling eyes, the words on his lips somehow took a detour and he swallowed them back.

After a while, he said politely: "Thank you for your help."

Zhou Yunwan could hear the discomfort in his words and said frankly: "You saved me, this is what I should do."

As she spoke, Zhou Yunwan raised her chin to signal him to sit down beside the bed, and she sat down on the chair next to him. But as soon as she sat down, she thought of something, "Wait a moment, I'll go wash my hands."

Before she finished her words, she rushed out of the room, ran to the bathroom, washed her hands carefully, and dried them carefully with a clean towel before sitting back in the chair.

"Let me help you untie the gauze first."

Shen Yanli watched her busying herself quietly, and suddenly felt that this kind of care and attention from others did not seem as bad as she had imagined.

He curled his lips imperceptibly, then stretched out his left hand in front of her, revealing half of his forearm wrapped tightly in white gauze.

A little dark red blood oozed out from the deepest part of the wound. I didn't know if it was caused by accidental contact or if it was natural bleeding after the bandage.

All in all, it looks a little serious.

Realizing this, Zhou Yunwan frowned, and her gratitude towards him deepened. If he hadn't appeared in time to save her, she would definitely have been the injured person.

Now it was equivalent to him bearing the pain that she shouldn't have to bear.

Her eyes were gentle, and she couldn't help but hold his left hand, looking up at him: "It must hurt, right?"

Shen Yanli stared at her, his eyes slowly moving towards the part where the two were holding hands tightly.

Her hands had just been washed with cold water and were slightly chilly, like an icy little snake penetrating through their touching skin and drilling into his heart, making him itchy and hot.

There was a hint of obscurity in his narrow eyes as he lingered on her. He knew that she was only well-intentioned, but he couldn't help but complain.

How many times has this happened?

Does she know that you can’t just touch a man’s hands?
