Chapter 363: Going Out to See Another Woman, Too Much!

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio I Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

At the dance studio…

Tang Beibei hung up the phone. Ruan Qi, who was next to her, immediately asked her about Madam Wu’s medical checkup.

Tang Beibei said that her condition had improved. If she kept her positive attitude and continued with her treatment, the success rate of her operation would improve. So would her future recovery.

Ruan Qi asked Tang Beibei again how they were so different even when they attended the same classes…

The difference was like buyer display versus seller display on Taobao.

Fu Jin discussed role assignments for their dance drama with the two girls. The main characters were Cui Yingying and Zhang Sheng, and the supporting roles were the matchmaker and the old prime minister’s wife who opposed their union.

Fu Jin was going to play the male lead, Zhang Sheng. Fu Jin let the girls decide between themselves who would play the female lead.

Ruan Qi said that she would play the matchmaker because she was not very good at classical dance or ballet so she wouldn’t make a good female lead.

Therefore, Tang Beibei would be the female lead. They still needed another dancer to play the prime minister’s wife.

Tang Beibei asked Fu Jin who he had in mind. Fu Jin looked through the list of trainees at his dance studio. “In terms of skills, Ye Lan is pretty good. What do you think?”

“It would be great if Ye Lan could join us.”

Fu Jin nodded in agreement but Ruan Qi asked doubtfully, “Captain, considering how Ye Lan feels about you, will it be awkward for you if she joins us?”

“No. That’s a personal matter but we are talking about work now. If she doesn’t cherish the opportunity, she won’t be able to stand out in my dance troupe.”

Ruan Qi and Tang Beibei looked at each other and did not dare to speak.

Fu Jin told Ye Lan about the plot and asked her if she was willing to play the role of the prime minister’s wife. Ye Lan agreed on the spot.

After confirming their roles, the four of them began choreography.

In troubled times, the daughter of the late prime minister, Cui Yingying, and Zhang Sheng, the scholar, fell in love at first sight at the Pujusi Temple. He expressed his love for her using poems, soldiers, and music.

But Yingying’s mother, Old Madam Cui, despised the poor and loved the rich.

She repeatedly tried to break up the couple. With the help of the maid matchmaker, the two secretly dated and privately promised each other marriage.

However, Old Madam Cui forced Zhang Sheng to take the imperial examination in capital city. If he did not pass the examination, she would not let her daughter marry him. Zhang Sheng bid farewell to Yingying and went to capital city to take the exam. He came out on top. With the help of the white horse general, he finally married Yingying.

To share the workload, the four of them analyzed their roles and began to choreograph their own parts before they put everything together.

Fu Jin choreographed his part using classical dance and practiced very hard.

As the daughter of a rich family, Tang Beibei needed to be elegant in her actions. She also had to portray the nobility and elegance of a young lady. It was a real challenge for her choreography skills.

The matchmaker was playful, tactful with a cheerful personality. Her dance needed be livelier and her movements more dramatic.

The prime minister’s wife was dignified and serious. Her expression when trying to break up the couple needed to be mean and fierce.

They were busy until eight o’clock in the evening. The four of them worked out a framework and tried their first rehearsal together but it didn’t quite work.

Jiang Jingchen sat at the side and waited for more than two hours. Fu Jin felt that if Young Master Jiang waited any longer, he would lose his temper and they would all suffer.

So, he ended the rehearsal.

Tang Beibei packed her bag and turned to Jiang Jingchen. She was about to apologize for making him wait when the man took her bag and walked out without a word.

Tang Beibei was stunned for a few seconds. Seeing her friend’s slow reaction, Ruan Qi held her forehead helplessly as she said, “Your husband is angry, and this is your expression?”

“Is it because of the long wait?”

Tang Beibei frowned. “I told him not to wait and to go back to rest.”

Ruan Qi shrugged. “If I could read Young Master Jiang’s mind, I would be a god.”

Tang Beibei quickly chased after him. When she got into the car, she saw the man with his arms crossed and his face cold. He was obviously in a foul mood.

Tang Beibei scratched her head. “Hubby, did something happen? You’re not in a good mood.”

Jiang Jingchen glanced at her. “I’m in a bad mood, huh? You’re mistaken.”

Tang Beibei was speechless.

Ruan Qi looked at Song Zhou, who was driving, in confusion. Song Zhou was also confused. He did not know why the young master was suddenly in a bad mood.

When they returned to the villa, Silent Sister had already prepared supper.

Tang Beibei was hungry, so she sat down with Ruan Qi to eat supper.

Jiang Jingchen sat on the sofa with his long legs and his arms crossed. He was obviously angry and needed someone to coax him.

Ruan Qi kicked Tang Beibei under the table. If her husband was angry, they would all suffer, so she’d better go and pacify him.

Tang Beibei pouted. She also didn’t know why her husband was angry.

Sigh, it was so hard to guess a man’s thoughts.

Tang Beibei brought the walnut and black sesame paste to the man and fed him with a spoon. She said fawningly, “Hubby, Silent Sister’s cooking is really good. Try it.”

“No appetite.”

“Have a taste. You may get an appetite.”

Jiang Jingchen refused and stood up to keep his distance from her.

Tang Beibei had no choice but to eat a few mouthfuls by herself and asked him, “Hubby, why are you in a bad mood?”

Jiang Jingchen turned to look at her. “You still don’t get it?”

“Get what?”

Jiang Jingchen gritted his teeth. “You’re actually acting as a couple with Fu Jin. You two look really good together.”

“That, that’s all fake. We’re acting as a couple in our dance drama, so of course we have to look convincing.”

Jiang Jingchen was so angry that his chest felt tight.

“Hubby, are you angry because of this? We’re just acting in a dance drama. There’s no other feelings.”

Jiang Jingchen snorted coldly and didn’t want to talk anymore. He turned and walked upstairs.

“…?”

Tang Beibei really could not figure out what he was thinking. She asked Ruan Qi, “Is my husband not happy that I’m acting in a dance drama, or does he think that I didn’t act well enough?”

Ruan Qi covered her mouth and tried not to laugh, but she couldn’t. She leaned on Song Zhou’s shoulder and laughed out loud.

“OMG, I feel sorry for Young Master Jiang.”

Tang Beibei was perplexed. “Why do you feel sorry for him? I didn’t really betray him. I was just dancing.”

“I’ll lend you all the courage in the world. Would you dare to betray me?” The man spat coldly as he walked downstairs in a change of clothes.

Tang Beibei quickly shook her head.

Seeing him walk out with his car keys, she asked in confusion, “Hubby, where are you going?”

Jiang Jingchen shook the car key in his hand and said, “Meeting a woman.”

Tang Beibei couldn’t be bothered with supper anymore and got up to follow him.

“What woman? I’ll go with you.”

“It’s not convenient,” Jiang Jingchen said expressionlessly.

“It will be fine. I’m your wife. I’ll accompany you if you are going out. I’ll definitely make my presence unfelt and won’t disturb you.” Tang Beibei said cautiously.

Jiang Jingchen turned to look at her. “If you need to make your presence unfelt, don’t be present at all. I didn’t ask you along, so don’t follow me.”

Tang Beibei held his arm aggrievedly and pretended to cry coquettishly. “I know I was wrong. I was wrong. I apologize. Don’t leave me behind.”

“What did you do wrong?”

“I, I made a few mistakes when I was dancing. I’ll definitely make proper arrangements in the future.”

Jiang Jingchen laughed in anger. He took her hand away and strode out.

Tang Beibei was depressed and quickly walked to the door. “Jiang Jingchen, if, if you are like this, I’m going to be angry with you.”

Jiang Jingchen crossed his arms. “What did I do? I’m just going out for a while. Can’t I have some freedom?”

“You’re going out to see another woman. What kind of woman are you seeing?

I’m a woman too but you won’t look at me more.” Tang Beibei leaned against the door frame, feeling more and more guilty as she spoke.

Just because she was acting in a dance drama, he was going out in the middle of the night to see another woman. That was too much!

Jiang Jingchen turned around, walked back to her and pressed the back of her neck.

“Do you want to go out with me so badly?”

“Yes!”

“Go and change into something more formal.”

“Why are we dressed formally?”

Ruan Qi quickly came over to pull Tang Beibei away. “He asked you to change,

so just go and change. Why are you asking so many questions?”

Tang Beibei followed Ruan Qi upstairs, wondering what kind of woman her husband was going to meet..
