Bai Ruozhu watched as Jiang Yichun left with his entourage and secretly let out a sigh of relief. She feared things getting out of control, that someone might hold Jiang Yichun responsible, and that she herself might become the "beauty" in "A fury for a beauty causes a crown to be thrown," but with Jiang Yichun backing her like this, a sweet feeling filled her heart, and her mood lifted greatly.
The organizing committee also sighed in relief. With a word from Master Wei, all judges began to circulate the students' works to determine the rankings in the Calligraphy Competition.
Good works were brought out first, and Bai Ruozhu's piece was the first to be presented.
Bai Zepei went over, patted Bai Ruozhu's shoulder, and said, "Little sister, go back and sit with the team for a while."
