Commander Bai's expression was stern, her voice harsh. Bai Xue didn't dare to meet her gaze, mumbling, "It's nothing, really nothing, they're just making a fuss."
"Making a fuss? What fuss?" Commander Bai asked.
Bai Xue looked down at the ground and muttered, "It's about tomorrow's performance. I have two songs and a dance, right? They are the ones who are getting nervous, worrying about how they'll look in front of the soldiers in the audience. They asked me yesterday if I was nervous and I said I wasn't, they didn't believe me. That's how today's incident happened."
Commander Bai chided coldly, "Bai Xue, you'd better remember your identity and the expectations and efforts your family has invested in you. Don't disappoint me!"
At her words, a mist clouded Bai Xue's eyes. She plucked up the courage to look at Commander Bai and said, "But I want a life of my own too!"
