Chapter 1373: Chapter 1443: The Letter Has Arrived
Just gone like that!
With a child, in such a tragic way.
When the news reached the General Union Dance Troupe, the entire troupe was filled with crying.
"I want to go to Jingang Pier and take a look." Qiu Bai was very downcast, half due to exhaustion, and the other half because he hadn’t moved on from Sheng Ning’s departure.
"Hmm! I’ll take care of the troupe’s affairs today, and we’ll go together tomorrow." The Su Family and Xu Qigang didn’t set up a monument for Sheng Ning, nothing at all. I really don’t know what they were thinking; now, the only place to commemorate is where the incident happened.
"No need! I’ll go today."
"You’re so tired, you should just sleep early tonight. I’ll have the assistant drive us there tomorrow morning."
"No need!" Qiu Bai refused.
She waved to Yang Wenying and walked towards the front gate. As she passed by the message room, the elderly man saw her and said excitedly, "Teacher Qiu Bai, Teacher Qiu Bai, there’s a letter for you. It’s been a while; you haven’t been around, so it’s been kept here."
"A letter for me?" Qiu Bai was quite surprised. She was introverted and didn’t have many friends, so there were only a handful of people who would write to her.
"Yes, indeed. I can see there are foreign words on it. Hold on, let me find it for you." The old man, due to his age, still used the childhood term for English.
Qiu Bai showed a hint of delighted surprise; the only person who would write to her in English was her mentor far away in the United States.
"Thank you!" She graciously thanked him, went in to receive the letter handed by the old man, and stared at the writing in a daze.
The English handwriting wasn’t the familiar penmanship of her mentor, whose writing wouldn’t look childish. Plus, why did the Chinese characters look so familiar?
She instinctively rubbed her eyes, almost thinking she was mistaken. But no matter how she looked, the Chinese characters remained.
’To the esteemed Teacher Qiu Bai.’
This... this is Sheng Ning’s tone, Sheng Ning’s handwriting.
Tears fell from Qiu Bai’s eyes without her realizing it, slowly staining the envelope. She hurriedly wiped them with her sleeve, extremely careful and cherishing it.
"Teacher Qiu Bai, what’s wrong?" The old man had great respect for Qiu Bai; in truth, everyone at the General Union respected this talented teacher who had studied abroad and had a good temperament.
"I’m fine, I’m fine!" Qiu Bai insisted she was fine, but tears continued to fall, frightening the old man. The message room was a busy place, and a junior who came in was alarmed to see Teacher Qiu Bai crying.
"I’ll inform Yang," he said, darting out.
Qiu Bai covered her mouth, eyes widening slightly, wanting to call the junior back, but they were already gone.
Why is she going to tell Yang Wenying when I’m crying?
"Teacher Qiu Bai, please don’t cry, why are you crying?" The old man was very puzzled.
The impression that Teacher Qiu Bai left on everyone was one of strength, or even mightiness. She seemed quiet and gentle, but her gaze had a power that stabilized people’s hearts.
"I’m not crying!" Qiu Bai replied, eyes red, forcing a not-very-good-looking smile at the old man, hands trembling as she opened the envelope. The familiar handwriting jumped out on the paper.
"Oh my God! It really is Sheng Ning, it really is Sheng Ning." She quickly skimmed through the contents, her eyes filled with shock, astonishment, disbelief, and overwhelming joy.
"There really are such coincidences in the world."
