Ruan Qi dragged Tang Beibei upstairs, helped her look for a dress as she lectured her.
âYour man is going to meet another woman. Of course, you must dress up to go head-on with her. Let that woman know that your man is taken.â
âOh, so thatâs what it means. Then I must dress better.â
Tang Beibei picked out a formal dress made of cotton gauze. It could also be worn casually and looked magical on her.
Tang Beibei applied light makeup and styled her hair. She lifted her skirt and walked downstairs quickly.
âHubby, is this dress okay?â
Jiang Jingchen looked at her for a long time, his eyes shining. It was obvious that the dress suited her very well.
âItâs okay. Letâs go.â
Tang Beibei smiled and gave him her hand. Jiang Jingchen held it out of habit.
Ruan Qi watched as they drove away and looked at Song Zhou in confusion. âWho is your young master meeting? He even asked Tang Beibei to dress up. Does she have a love rival?â
âLove rivalsâ¦â Song Zhou thought for a few seconds. âYes, she does. Quite a few.â
âBut Young Master isnât meeting her love rival today. He probably just wants to go on a date with Tang Beibei.â
âHuh? A date?â
Ruan Qi was shocked. Why was going on a date so complicated?
Song Zhou sighed helplessly. âTang Beibei is either studying or dancing. How often does she carve out time to go on dates with Young Master?â
âYoung Master said he was meeting a woman, but he didnât say which woman. Tang Beibei didnât want Young Master to meet other women, so she would naturally tag along.â
Ruan Qiâs mouth twitched. Song Zhouâs young master was really weird. He had to put on such a big act just for a date.
It was such a waste of his talent that wasnât a Best Actor!
Tang Beibei followed the man to a square and asked him who he was meeting.
âYouâll know when you see her,â Jiang Jingchen said.
Tang Beibei followed him. Instead of going into the mall, they walked around the square in the evening breeze.
âWill the other party wait too long if we do this?â n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âDo you so desperately want me to meet another woman?â
âOf course not.â
âThen weâll let her wait. Letâs take a walk. I saw a pedestrian street ahead. There are snacks on the pedestrian street. Do you want to get some food?â
âYes!â
Tang Beibei wished that he wouldnât meet this other woman.
She went to the pedestrian street with him and bought a lot of food. As she was well-dressed and pretty, and she was walking with a handsome man, many heads turned as they walked the pedestrian street.
âPretty girl, are you a celebrity?â A female stall owner asked curiously.
Tang Beibei was puzzled. âIâm not.â
âYouâre so pretty. Is the person beside you your boyfriend?â
Tang Beibei shook her head. âNo.â
âAh, then you guys areâ¦â The stall owner looked at them strangely as she guessed their potentially improper relationship.
Then, she heard the womanâs clear voice. âHeâs my husband.â
The female stall owner was stunned. She said with envy all over her face, âYour husband is tall and handsome. Youâre so lucky!â
Tang Beibei smiled happily and turned to look at the man beside her. âYeah, I think so too.â
Jiang Jingchen listened to the womanâs answer and smiled. He bought another serving of takoyaki.
Jiang Jingchen was a little tired from walking, so he found a seat and sat down. After Tang Beibei sat down, she stuffed a takoyaki into her mouth and ate it with relish.
âGood?â
âVery good!â Tang Beibei grinned. âHubby, have some too.â
Jiang Jingchen took a bite and looked up at the moon in the sky. âThe moonlight is rather enchanting tonight.â
Tang Beibei looked up at the sky and shook her head. âI canât even see the moon clearly. There arenât any stars either. Whatâs so enchanting about it?â
Jiang Jingchen was speechless.
Tang Beibei turned to look at him and said, âThe moonlight is not enchanting but my husband is. Hehe.â
Jiang Jingchen couldnât help but lower his head to kiss her.
Tang Beibei raised her hand to cover his mouth and mumbled, âDonât kiss me yet. Wait for me to swallow my food, or youâll snatch it away again.â
The woman swallowed the food in her mouth and pouted with a smile for him to kiss her.
Jiang Jingchen turned away in disgust. âSo fishy.â
The takoyaki she ate just now tasted a little fishy.
Tang Beibei smelled her breath and quickly drank water to rinse her mouth.
âItâs fine now. Kiss me.â
Jiang Jingchen looked away, got up, and left.
âNah. Letâs go.â
Feeling wronged, Tang Beibei pursed her lips and followed him.
They walked back to the square and Jiang Jingchen entered the mall. Although it was night, the mall was still crowded.
Suddenly, the man stopped in his tracks and asked her, âWho do you see in that mirror?â
Tang Beibei walked to the mirror he pointed at and looked at it.
âI donât see anyone.â
Jiang Jingchen walked up next to her and appeared in the mirror. He asked her again, âWho do you see now?â
âYou!â
âAnd?â
âAnd what?â
Jiang Jingchen laughed in frustration. He pinched her cheek and lectured her. âArenât you also a who?â
âOh right, thereâs also me in the mirror, hehe. Iâm dressed up today. We look good together.â
Jiang Jingchen watched her spin around self-indulgently. He smiled and put his long arm around her shoulders.
Tang Beibei was puzzled. âArenât you meeting someone? Why arenât we going yet?â
âWeâve already met. Itâs time to go home.â
âWho did you come out to meet?â Tang Beibeiâs face was full of question marks.
Jiang Jingchen pointed at the woman in the mirror. âHer. Who else do you think I want to meet?â
Tang Beibei looked at the woman in the mirror and covered her mouth to laugh.
She knew that her husband would never betray her.
âGorgeous, do you want to go home with me?â he asked in the mirror.
âYes!â
Jiang Jingchen said proudly, âIâm talking to the woman in the mirror. Why are you stealing her thunder?â
Tang Beibei held his hand and smiled happily. âThe woman in the mirror is me. Iâm your wife. Youâre not allowed to bring any other woman home except me!â
Jiang Jingchen chuckled and pinched her cheek. âYouâre quite self-aware.â
The two of them turned to go home. Jiang Jingchen looked around to make sure that no one was following them. He narrowed his cold eyes and pondered.
Tang Beibei and Fu Jin rehearsed for more than half a month and finally finished the choreography. They were ready to show their dance to Professor Chen.
Tang Beibei told Professor Chen about it when she went to do her shift. Professor Chen was very curious and wanted to see what they were going to perform.
The four of them found an empty space, played their music, and started dancing.
Professor Chen was their only audience. He frowned and raised his eyebrows as he watched their performance. His expression was difficult to read.
When they finished their performance, Professor Chen nodded perfunctorily. âItâs still a little lacking. Although this is a famous play, not many people understand opera, let alone a dance drama.â
It meant that their plot was not attractive enough.
They were performing a dance drama at an international medical conference. If they couldnât hold peopleâs attention for six minutes, their performance would be a failure.
Tang Beibei asked respectfully, âProfessor, do you have any suggestion?â
Professor Chen said, âIâm just an audience member who doesnât know much about dance. What suggestion can I have?â
His words were heart-wrenching.
Tang Beibei could only say that she would think more about his comment.
However, it was not easy to change a well-developed plot. They were a little worried.
After school, the four of them were getting ready to go to the dance studio when Ruan Qi received a call and ran out.
Tang Beibei was puzzled. âQiqi, where are you going?â
âMy mother is waiting for me at the school gate. She said that she has something to tell me.â
Tang Beibei nodded and did not chase after her. She went to the parking lot to join Fu Jin as he drove to the school gate to wait for Ruan Qi.
As soon as they arrived at the school gate, they saw Ruan Qi arguing with a middle-aged woman by the roadside.
Ruan Qiâs hair was messy and there were red marks on her face. She had obviously been slapped.
Tang Beibei was worried and quickly got out of the car to find out what was happening.
