I can't imagine how hard that must be for Ning and I truly hope she accepts that it wasn't her fault. I'm hoping Shu pulls through because I don't think Ning can lose her too. I'm interested to know how this competition works and all the drama that occurs during it. I hope the mysterious, handsome boy's secret isn't bad and he can be a part of Ning's life going forward. She deserves SO many good things and I will be reading the book to find out if she does!!
