“Alright, we’ll rely on each other in the future.” Bai Lan hugged Shi Sen tightly. Thinking of what had happened last night, Bai Lan was still afraid. If anything really happened to Shi Sen, she wouldn’t want to live anymore.

“I have to find an opportunity to thank that child called Chu Liu in the future.”

Shi Sen nodded when she heard Bai Lan’s words. After this incident, Shi Sen had a much better impression of Chu Liu.

Bai Lan had prepared food for Shi Sen. She was halfway through eating when she heard the door slam.

After Bai Lan opened the door and saw the angry Shi Song in the courtyard, she understood the reason.

“Where’s your mother?” After Shi Song looked around the empty room, he asked Bai Lan in a terrifying tone.

“I helped her back to the house just now, but I don’t know where she is now.” Bai Lan felt that Liu Cui might have gone to the Shi family’s home, but she couldn’t be bothered to explain to Shi Song.

“I can’t live like this anymore!” Shi Song was so angry that he slammed the tools in his hand down, startling Bai Lan. Shi Sen also walked out of the room.

“Grandpa, if you’re looking for Grandma, go to Aunt’s house to take a look.” Shi Song probably didn’t know about Liu Cui and Shi Yan’s plan, but Shi Sen didn’t want Shi Song to vent his anger on her mother.

“Do you know what’s going on outside?!” After Shi Song started coughing violently, Bai Lan handed him a glass of water from the room.

As Shi Song looked at the mother and daughter in front of him, he knew that this had nothing to do with them. He took a sip of water and said to them, “Don’t go out if you can.”

With that, Shi Song walked out of the door. Bai Lan was a little worried, but she didn’t chase after him. After all, Bai Lan knew what the Shi family had done to them.

Shi Sen ignored Shi Song and returned to the room with Bai Lan. It wasn’t until it was completely dark that Shi Song returned with Liu Cui.

Bai Lan and Shi Sen didn’t go out. From Liu Cui’s expression, they knew that Shi Song must be furious.

Shi Sen slept well that night. Shi Tu had also received the punishment he deserved. Now that Shi Sen was focused on returning to the city with Bai Lan, the Shi family’s reputation wasn’t that important to her.

The next morning, Shi Sen went to Mr. Liu’s place to practice.

“Little Sen, you’re here.” Liu De looked a little embarrassed. Clearly, he had also heard about the Shi family’s scandal.

“Good morning, Mr. Liu. I’m here to look for Chu Liu to practice.” Shi Sen didn’t care at all. After she greeted Liu De with a smile, she walked into the courtyard.

As he watched Shi Sen leave, Liu De sighed. This child had a tough life. It was rare for her to be so optimistic after growing up in such a family.

Liu De secretly made up his mind to nurture Shi Sen well so that she could leave this strange family.

Shi Sen saw Chu Liu doing pull-ups and greeted him warmly.

“How were things? Were you implicated?” Chu Liu came down from the horizontal bar and asked Shi Sen with concern.

“How can I be implicated? Come practice with me and see if I’ve improved.”

Looking at the bright smile on Shi Sen’s face, Chu Liu gradually relaxed. Shi Sen was indeed different from ordinary people. She was very strong-willed. Chu Liu felt that she really had the talent to become an outstanding athlete.

After Chu Liu practiced a few rounds with Shi Sen, he and Mr. Liu, who was watching from the side, were surprised to discover that Shi Sen was improving at an astonishing speed. Not only did she have strong psychological endurance, but she also had very outstanding talent in sports.

“Little Sen, after you return to the city, you’ll be able to get a good ranking in the female team.” Liu De originally thought that it would take a lot of effort for Shi Sen to keep up with her teammates’ progress, but from the looks of it, Shi Sen’s current level had already surpassed that of many veteran athletes.

“Mr. Liu, who’s the most capable member of our team?” Shi Sen was a little curious. The outstanding members Mr. Liu was training now would definitely be world champions in the future, so Shi Sen was looking forward to meeting them. After all, she had only seen them on the news in her previous life.

“The most outstanding people in the male team are Chu Liu and Han Yu. The most outstanding one in the female team is probably Yang Jie, but Wu Ping is not bad either. You want to challenge the most powerful team members before you go to the city?” Liu De looked at Shi Sen with admiration.

“It’s not a challenge. It’s to learn from them.” Shi Sen felt that she had an impression of these names. They were indeed very impressive people. When she returned to the city, she had to find an opportunity to learn from them.
