At Fu Jinâs dance studio, Tang Beibei turned on her phone after dance training and saw the missed call from Jiang Jingchen.
She was a little regretful and sent him a message.
âHubby, Iâm so sorry. I was in training and put my phone on silent.â
âItâs okay. Iâm already here at the dance studio.â n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Tang Beibei walked out quickly and saw a tall man standing at the simple front desk.
He was wearing a mask and had a lunch box and two puppies on leashes with him.
She felt as if her man had brought their children to pick her up.
She smiled, hung up the phone, and ran up to him.
âHubby, Iâm here.â
Jiang Jingchen took out a handkerchief from his pocket when he saw her and helped her wipe sweat off her forehead. âYouâre all sweaty. Is training over?â
âYes, but I would like to practice a little longer.â
Tang Beibei hesitated for a few seconds as she looked at the puppies rubbing against her feet. âForget it, Iâm not practicing anymore. Letâs eat and then walk the dogs.â
Jiang Jingchen nodded, his dark eyes smiling.
The reason he brought the puppies was to whisk her away. She might not leave with him otherwise.
âOkay, Iâll wait for you here.â
Tang Beibei went back to pack her things and say bye to Ruan Qi. Ruan Qi lay on the floor, feeling so envious that she wanted to cry, when she heard that Tang Beibeiâs husband brought her food and puppies to play with.
Tang Beibei chuckled and gave Ruan Qi the snacks from her bag. âYou should still eat something. Iâll make a move first.â
âBye. Send me a message when you are done practicing at home. I donât want you to improve while Iâm secretly sleeping.â
Tang Beibei took her bag and ran. She was in a hurry and knocked into Xi Tong, who was coming in the opposite direction.
Tang Beibei apologized spontaneously, âIâm sorry. Are you okay?â
Xi Tong looked at her coldly. âCanât you see a grown person like me in front of you? You knocked into me on purpose!â
Tang Beibei said innocently. âNo, I didnât. Iâm really sorry.â
Xi Tong snorted. âYouâve got eyes so watch where you are going. Can you afford to compensate me if you hurt me?â
Tang Beibei looked at the floor and waited for her to leave before she continued her way out.
âWhat happened?â
Jiang Jingchen saw that she was in a bad mood and asked.
Tang Beibei rubbed her arm. âI accidentally knocked into someone just now and my arm hurts a little.â
Although she was in a hurry, she wasnât that strong. Xi Tong still looked calm after she knocked into her. Tang Beibei suspected if Xi Tong had purposely stood in her way!
âLet me see.â
âItâs fine. It was an accident anyway. I ran because I didnât want you to wait too long.â
Jiang Jingchen rubbed her head and held her wrist. âLetâs go eat.â
They walked past Ye Lan at the main door as she was walking in. Ye Lan saw the two of them holding hands and paused for a moment before she turned to look at the man.
But the man had long strides and she only saw his back.
Something flashed through her mind, but she quickly dismissed it and turned to walk to the training room.
She had just put down her things when Xi Tong said, âTang Beibei is so arrogant. She even deliberately knocked into me just now.â
âWhy would she do that?â
âHow would I know? Maybe she doesnât like me. Maybe she saw that you werenât around and decided to bully me.â
âTang Beibei always has a big bag of imported snacks in her bag that she never shared with us. Sheâs deliberately showing off her rich second-generation husband like we donât know that her husband is a rich second-generation heir. Itâs disgusting!â
âAnd so annoying. Why did Fu Jin recruit such a piece of trash? To ruin the team atmosphere?â
Ye Lan thought about the man who walked out with Tang Beibei just now and kept quiet.
âYe Lan, when we get a chance, we have to teach those batches, Tang Beibei and Ruan Qi, a lesson. They are so fake.â
Ye Lan glanced at Ruan Qi, who was sitting on the floor and playing with her phone, a pile of snacks lying next to her. She said indifferently, âLetâs just practice. If you want to surpass them, you have to be better than them.â
âYes, yes. I think Ye Lan is still the best dancer here. You dance better than them.â
Stunned, Ye Lan looked up at the office on the second floor.
Was she really better than Tang Beibei?
It didnât seem that way in Fu Jinâs eyes.
Jiang Jingchen asked Song Zhou to bring them to a nearby park. They sat on a bench and Tang Beibei ate her dinner. After a short rest, they took the two puppies for a walk.
Xiaoan was livelier, while Xiaokang was more reserved. When the two of them played, it was almost always Xiaoan who was jumping around. Tang Beibei wondered if she had given Xiaoan the wrong name.
She turned her head to look at the man who was walking steadily and laughed out loud.
Jiang Jingchen was puzzled. âBeibei, what are you laughing about?â
âIt feels like youâre walking me while Iâm walking the dogs.â
Jiang Jingchen was amused by her words. âItâs perfectly fine if thatâs your understanding. You must be tired from classes and then dance practice. Iâll let you relax for half an hour so you donât feel so stressed out.â
Tang Beibei poked at her own head. âIâm not stressed out. Iâm very motivated.â
âOh, then whoâs the one whoâs sleep-talking and reciting from memory at night?â
Tang Beibei was surprised, as if she had discovered a new world. âDo I talk in my sleep at night?â
âYes.â
â⦠What did I say?â
âYou said some medical terms. Also, you called my name. My Beibei thinks about me even in her sleep.â
âWoof, woof, woof! Woof, woof, woof!â
Xiaoan barked suddenly and dashed behind her.
Tang Beibei looked up and saw a huge Samoyed with pure white fur running over. The Samoyed moved its ears and walked up to Tang Beibeiâs feet tentatively.
The two puppies were a little frightened and hid behind her.
She felt the Samoyed sniffing her pants and felt a little nervous.
She tugged at the leashes to pull the two puppies closer so she could pick them up, but the man had already picked Xiaoan up and unleashed him.
He took out some dog food from his pocket and sprinkled it on the ground. The Samoyed lowered its head to eat the dog food, and the man put Xiaoanâs leash on it.
And then he tied the other end of the leash to a nearby tree.
âLetâs go.â
His movements were swift and nimble. He picked Xiaokang up elegantly and took Tang Beibei away.
Tang Beibei looked at the leash. It was not cheap and cost more than 80 yuan a piece.
âHey, who are you? How dare you chain up my dog? Donât walk away, stop!â
Suddenly, a young woman rushed over and tried to shove Tang Beibei to stop her.
Jiang Jingchen pulled Tang Beibei behind him and warned the woman with his dark eyes.
âDonât touch her.â
The woman saw that the man was wearing a mask, but she was not afraid. She pointed at him with an unfriendly expression.
âWho do you think you are to chain up my dog? Are you trying to steal my dog? Iâm telling you two dog thieves, I wonât let you off!â
Tang Beibei laughed in frustration. Was there something wrong with this womanâs brain?
âItâs your dog but itâs off leash. We helped you, but now youâre scolding us. You are being unreasonable here.â
âMy Xiangxiang was off leash, but she didnât bother you. Who needs your help? I think you guys have bad intentions. If I didnât come over, youâve probably taken my Xiangxiang away.â
The womanâs dog was called Xiangxiang.
Tang Beibei gritted her teeth. How could she have her dog off leash in a public place?
âI canât be bothered to talk to you. Hubby, letâs go.â
âYou want to leave? Apologize to my Xiangxiang and Iâll let you go!â
Asking them to apologize to the dog was crossing the line!
Jiang Jingchen looked at the woman coldly. âWho gave you the confidence?â
âWhat confidence? You chained up my dog, so you should apologize. If you donât, Iâll make you regret it!â
âRegret it?â
Jiang Jingchen laughed out loud. His expression couldnât be seen clearly through the mask but the mockery in his tone was unconcealed.
âWho will you call to make us regret it?â
Jiang Jingchen took out his phone casually and took a picture of the womanâs face. He sent it to Song Zhou to check her identity.
Seeing the man snapping a picture of her, the woman quickly covered her face and glared angrily at Jiang Jingchen.. âWho are you? How can be so rude and take my picture? Sneaking around in a mask and taking my picture? Donât tell me youâre a paparazzi in disguise who wants to take pictures of me that you deliberately chained up my dog!â
