With determination in her eyes, Ziyu affirmed, "I can definitely win the championship."
Gu Qingcheng replied, "I believe you can win, but what if you don't? What will you do if you fail to win the championship?"
Ziyu was momentarily stunned, seemingly unprepared for this question.
Gu Qingcheng observed the change in Ziyu's expression closely.
"Answer me," she pressed Ziyu with a forceful presence. "What will you do if you don't win? What will be the consequences?"
Feeling the intense pressure from Principal Gu, Ziyu experienced a moment of fear but then looked directly into Gu Qingcheng's sharp eyes. "I never considered not winning," she confessed. "My only focus is on winning the championship."
Gu Qingcheng, outwardly expressionless, inwardly appreciated Ziyu's display of firm confidence.
She didn't praise Ziyu, wanting to avoid relaxing her constantly taut nerves.
