Ziyu’s father pointed at Gu Qingcheng angrily. “It was her. She hit me.”

“Put the broom down.”

Ziyu’s mother, whose hair was disheveled, didn’t know what to do when she saw this.

“Is there a misunderstanding?” She said very softly, “Principal Gu did hit someone, but..

Her voice stopped abruptly. Her husband was glaring at her, and she was too scared to speak up for Gu Qingcheng.

Gu Qingcheng was shocked but still observed Ziyu’s mother’s actions.

Ziyu’s mother still had some courage, but not much.

“I called the police,” she threw the broom on the ground. “I hit someone too, but I was saving someone.”

As she spoke, she recorded the video of Ziyu’s father hitting his wife with her phone and gave it to the police officer who came to arrest her.

In her previous life, she was recuperating in the hospital and did not participate in the semi-finals of the Peach Lotus Cup. She learned everything from Li Jing, so she knew everything about the Purple Jade.

She had deliberately recorded the video before entering so that it could be used as evidence and to protect Ziyu.

She knew who the champion of the Peach Lotus Cup was, and she also knew that Ziyu was forced by her stepfather to sleep with a client after participating in the Peach Lotus Cup. She couldn’t take the humiliation and committed suicide.

At that time, she was seriously ill and could not save Ziyu. She blamed herself and suffered for a long time. This time, she had the chance to save Ziyu again. She would definitely protect Ziyu well.

When Ziyu’s father saw himself hitting his wife in the video, he quickly changed his arrogant look and said submissively, “I didn’t hit my wife on purpose. She scolded me and hit me first. I had no choice but to hit her. I was defending myself. Listen to my explanation…’

Gu Qingcheng looked at the hypocritical man in front of her and felt so disgusted that she wanted to throw up.

After revealing her identity, she explained that Ziyu was locked in the attic and scolded Ziyu’s stepfather.

Gu Qingcheng was a public figure. She wouldn’t have come here for no reason. The police officers who came to arrest her immediately went to the locked attic after hearing what she said. They rescued Ziyu, who was locked up naked, and confirmed the truth that Gu Qingcheng had told them.

“I’m very sorry, Ziyu is my student. She has to participate in the Peach Lotus Cup at three o’clock. If she’s late, it will be considered a forfeit. I know you need us to record your statement,” she explained to the police officer. “Can you give us a cnanceg Atter nyu nmsnes tne competition, I’ll Dnng ner to recora ner statement personally. I’m Gu Qingcheng, the principal of the Imperial Arts Academy. If you have any questions, you can come to me. Of course, if you’re in a hurry, you can come with us to the Peach Lotus Cup. We’ll give your statements immediately after the competition.”

The police officers recognized Gu Qingcheng’s sincerity. In the end, Ziyu was a student, and participating in the competition was important, so they decided to let her participate in the competition first before taking her statement. “Thank you,” Gu Qingcheng thanked them. “Thank you so much.”

Before she left, she looked at Ziyu’s stepfather. “My eyes saw you beating your wife. It’s useless for you to quibble! Let me tell you, I’m not done with you today! You hit my student, you’re going to be sued! I’ll get a lawyer to sue you for domestic violence and abusing your daughter! Sue you until you go bankrupt, sue you until your society dies!”

Ziyu’s father knew that Gu Qingcheng could really sue him and ruin his reputation, and he looked desperate.

“And as a mother, why aren’t you getting a divorce quickly? Do you still want to keep the scumbag for the new year? Let me tell you, if there’s a first time, there will be countless times. Think about your poor daughter!” Gu Qingcheng glared at Ziyu’s mother. “Ask your heart. Is your marriage worth it?”

Gu Qingcheng drove to the Peach Lotus Cup venue with Ziyu.

Ziyu had long black hair and was short and slim. She had a delicate appearance and looked like a daughter from a humble family. Her face was pale, and she looked weak.

“Principal, can I forfeit the competition? If I participate in the competition, my dad will beat my mom to death. Although my stepfather didn’t treat me well, he was the one who paid for my tuition fees. Although he beat and scolded me for so many years, if it weren’t for him paying my tuition fees, I would have dropped out of school long ago. I can’t be so ungrateful…’

Gu Qingcheng parked the car by the roadside and stared at Ziyu with a sharp gaze. “Clear your mind of your parents and ask your heart if you want to participate in the Peach Lotus Cup. If you want to participate in the competition, I’ll take you there regardless of anything. If you don’t want to participate in the competition, I’ll respect your choice. I’ll take you to record your statement.”

Ziyu looked at Gu Qingcheng with tears in her eyes.

Gu Qingcheng’s heart ached when she saw Ziyu’s delicate face. She had no choice but to ask, “Ask your heart and tell me, do you want to participate in the Peach Lotus Cup?”

Ziyu was stunned by the principal’s words. She stared at Gu Qingcheng blankly, then lowered her head to look at her heart. Slowly, she raised her hand and placed it on her heart.

Time slipped bv, and Gu Qingchenz looked at the clock in the car. It was almost three o’clock.

“I do.” Ziyu struggled for a long time, and her despairing eyes were gradually filled with the stars of her dreams. She looked at Principal Gu Qingcheng and said, “I want to participate in the Peach Lotus Cup. I really, really want to.”

“If you want to, then go! Nothing can stop you from pursuing your dreams. If there is, it is yourself.” Gu Qingcheng was glad that Ziyu had given her the best answer. With a determined look on her face, she said to Ziyu, “Purple Jade, remember, as long as you have a dream, you must defend it, work hard and proudly realize it. Don’t give up easily because dreams are more dazzling than stars.”

Ziyu was touched by the determination and sincerity in Principal Gu Qingcheng’s eyes. Her eyes were filled with determination. “Yes, I will definitely defend my dream.”

“Do your best to participate in the competition. I have high hopes for you.” Gu Qingcheng rubbed Ziyu’s head in relief. “Don’t worry about your mother. I’ll send someone to pick her up and arrange a new place for you to live.”

She remembered that Ziyu’s mother was a housewife and would not go out to work at all. She comforted Ziyu, “I’ll provide the house to you and your daughter for free. Your tuition fees will be waived, and your living expenses will be transferred to you from Royal Dance Finance.”

Ziyu looked at Gu Qingcheng in shock. “Mas… The principal… This… This was probably inappropriate. My mother and I have hands and feet. We will earn our own money. We will earn our own tuition fees and living expenses…”

“Then return it to Royal Dance.” Gu Qingcheng said to Ziyu as she drove. “Use the things Royal Dance has given you as a reason to work hard and become the person you want to be. When you have the ability to repay it, you can return it to Royal Dance again.”

Ziyu was relieved. “Thank you, Principal. I will work harder. When I have the ability, I will repay you for your kindness.”

“No, not give it back to me.” Gu Qingcheng reminded Ziyu. “I’m returning it to Royal Dance! It was all the teachers at Royal Dance who nurtured and educated you. This credit belongs to them, not me. So if you want to return it, you should return it to Royal Dance.”

Ziyu’s eyes were filled with determination and gratitude. “Alright, thank you for your guidance, Principal. I will definitely work hard to repay Royal Dance.” Gu Qingcheng chuckled, pleased that Ziyu had regained her confidence. “I’m sorry, hubby. I have to go back on my word.”

Seeing that she was running out of time, she mumbled apologetically and stepped on the accelerator. Once again, she sped toward the Peach Lotus Cup.

When she arrived at the Peach Lotus Cup, she glanced at the time and saw that there were still fifteen minutes left. She secretly heaved a sigh of relief and got out of the car to open the passenger door.

“Ziyu, get out of the car. We’re here.”

Ziyu sat in the passenger seat. She was so scared by the speed that her face turned pale, and she was terrified.

Li Jing received Gu Qingcheng’s call and rushed to the door. “I can’t even reach

Ziyu on the phone. Where did you find Ziyu?”

“Let’s not talk about Ziyu first. Take her to change and prepare for the competition. The competition is more important than anything else,” Gu Qingcheng reminded Li Jing. “You can’t just give up.”

Ziyu was so scared that she couldn’t move, but she still looked at Gu Qingcheng and asked in a trembling voice, “Principal, if I didn’t make it to the finals, would you regret coming to pick me up today? Do you think that I’m not worthy of you treating me like this?”
