136 Confidence
'Why didn't such a perfect woman belong to him?!'
His lashes perfectly concealed the disappointment hidden deep in his eyes.
An indescribable sense of moroseness filled him.
Soon, Shen Jiayi had finished singing.
At the end of her performance, she bowed and made sure to thank her fellow soldiers and leaders while having a flushed face. Her eyes wandered off to the Logistics Department upon looking up.
The audience erupted in applause!
Gu Yan put her hands together even though it was wrapped in gauze, causing Guo Rou and their comrades to watch her in horror.
Gu Yan nodded to Shen Jiayi and beamed a proud smile. She even raised her left hand to give a thumbs-up.
'Shen Jiayi, you are the best!'
Despite the distance between them, Shen Jiayi instantly understood what Gu Yan wanted to convey, even if she actually couldn't make out what the other person was saying.
It felt as though a bubble of happiness had burst from her heart. She couldn't figure out whether it was due to successfully performing for the first time or receiving applause from her friend.
Tears simply flowed down without a warning. Her body was trembling with excitement.
Several scenes flashed in her mind. Shen Jiayi could recall all the unfortunate things she encountered after coming to the city.
From being humiliated to getting bullied…
All of them were memories she tried so hard to forget, refusing to acknowledge them.
However, at this moment, she could face nearly a thousand people below the stage and sing with her loudest voice the most charming song.
Tears blurred her vision as her heart finally opened up.
'Gu Yan, thank you!'
It was you who convinced me of my capabilities to sing proudly on the stage.
'I really could do it!'
After Shen Jiayi went off stage amidst the applause, Shen Nana's face was white with rage
'Why could Shen Jiayi sing so well?!'
'Why did that damned Gu Yan come back?!'
'Was only her hand affected?!'
Different scenarios had been conjured by her mind. She wanted to act right now and prove something.
But, she couldn't do anything.
She could only seethe with anger.
Shen Nana looked up and glanced at the Logistics Department viciously.
She sneered, 'Gu Yan, although you're back, your hand is still injured.'
Even though Shen Jiayi ended up in the limelight this time, you definitely can't participate in the shooting tournament!
Shen Nana comforted herself with such a thought to calm herself down.
Meanwhile, Gu Yan sat next to Guo Rou and chatted with her. She adeptly healed herself with the green light during the conversation.
She couldn't use it while she was in the hospital because the staff would still need to check her condition before leaving.
The results confirmed a serious burn last night. If it already healed this morning, she probably wouldn't be able to leave the hospital.
She would become a test subject in a research laboratory.
Shen Jiayi soon returned, and the soldiers of the Logistics Department clapped their hands to welcome her.
"Shen Jiayi, you're amazing!"
"Yes, your singing voice is so enchanting. It's as good as the singing and dancing band's!"
For the first time, Shen Jiayi received numerous praises. Her face blushed.
She then sat next to Gu Yan and asked her about her hand.
