Tang Beibei waited outside nervously for more than ten minutes. When Ruan Qi came out, she stood and walked up to Ruan Qi.

“How was it? What did the teachers say?”

Ruan Qi couldn’t tell either. She looked at Fu Jin behind her.

Fu Jin explained, “The studio still must go through proper procedures. The teachers said that they’ll give you the results tomorrow, but I’m very confident in both of you!”

“Alright, but I’ll definitely be too nervous to sleep tonight.” Tang Beibei said. The more she cared about something, the more painful the wait would be. Ruan Qi nodded as well. Her heart was already beating very fast right now, let alone tonight. She wished it was tomorrow now but they couldn’t rush time. Tang Beibei heard her phone ring. Her husband was here to pick her up.

She bade farewell to Fu Jin and left with Ruan Qi.

Fu Jin walked them to the door. When he saw them get into the car, he retracted his gaze reluctantly.

Fu Jin was a little lost as he watched their car drive away.

He did not know if keeping her close would be like drinking poison to quench his thirst, and he would suffer the consequences eventually.

When Tang Beibei got in the car and saw her husband, Jiang Jingchen handed her a cup. She smelled the liquid and smiled.

“Is this your homemade soy milk?”

“Yes, you must be thirsty. Go on, drink some.”

“Alright.” Tang Beibei took a sip and handed the cup to Ruan Qi. “It tastes good. Do you want some?”

Ruan Qi quickly waved her hand no and grabbed a bottle of water. “I’ll drink water.”

Ruan Qi wouldn’t dare to drink something that Jiang Jingchen had prepared for his wife, not in a million years.

Tang Beibei was puzzled. Ruan Qi used to like soy milk, but since she didn’t want it, Tang Beibei drank it all.

“Delicious! Hubby, your cooking is getting better and better.” She said to Jiang Jingchen.

Jiang Jingchen smiled and was in a good mood. Fie rubbed her head and said softly, “I’m glad you like it. How was your interview today?”

“We still have to wait to get our results tomorrow. I’m looking forward to it though.”

“Beibei is so amazing. She’ll definitely pass the interview.” Jiang Jingchen comforted her. If she didn’t pass the interview, he could just let her join his entertainment company.

Tang Beibei was embarrassed and covered her mouth with her hand. “I’m also confident in my dance.”

Ruan Qi sighed softly as she listened to their private conversation. She shouldn’t have gotten in the car with Tang Beibei to witness their lovey-dovey.

After sending Ruan Qi home, they went back to the villa. Since the servants were preparing dinner, Tang Beibei went to her dance studio to practice. Jiang Jingchen followed her and said that he wanted to be her first audience.

Tang Beibei danced quite well initially but when she realized that he was staring at her, she suddenly felt a little nervous. She walked up to him and asked carefully, “Hubby, did I dance well?”

“Yes, very well. Beibei dances like a little fairy.”

Jiang Jingchen held her hand. He was afraid that his shiny and charming little fairy would travel with the wind and be taken away by other men.

When she stood on stage in future, more people would pay attention to her. However, his current situation… He patted his leg. It was time to find an opportunity to recover.

“Beibei, when my legs recover, you can teach me a couple dance. How about that?”

Tang Beibei sat down by his feet and put her hands on his legs. She smiled and said, “We can do a couple dance even before your legs recover. You just have to give me your hand.”

Jiang Jingchen watched as she effortlessly did a side split and held his hand. He was very worried that she would pull a muscle.

“Beibei, get up. Does it hurt when you do that?”

Tang Beibei chuckled and told him quietly, as if she was telling him a secret.

“No, I’m used to it. I practice this in secret. 1 was too embarrassed to tell you before that 1 stretch every morning when I close the bathroom door in the morning.”

Jiang Jingchen was surprised. She always took her time when washing up and he thought that it was because girls needed more time in the bathroom.

However, seeing how she was so truthful to him now while he had been lying to her, he felt a little guilty.

“Beibei, if someone were to lie to you due to circumstances, would you be upset?”

“Lie to me? Why would they lie to me?”

Tang Beibei was confused and asked him nervously, “Hubby, are you hiding something from me?”

She didn’t get a response, so she continued in a serious tone, “Hubby, we can talk about anything. Please don’t lie to me. 1’11 be very sad if you lie to me.”

Jiang Jingchen was the person she trusted the most and the person she loved. She didn’t want them to lie to each other.

Jiang Jingchen’s heart was even more muddled when he heard her slightly flustered tone. He didn’t know where to begin.

However, it wasn’t time yet to tell her. He pulled her onto his lap and hugged her tightly.

“I was just joking with you, and you took it so seriously. Why would I lie to you?”

Tang Beibei hugged him back and said, “Hubby, the most important thing between husband and wife is trust. I’m not an unreasonable person. If there’s anything you need to discuss with me, I’m willing to listen.”

“Yes.”

When Jiang Jingchen heard her say that the most important thing between husband and wife was trust, he felt as if he had been stabbed in the heart.

“Beibei, you said before that you will never leave me no matter what. You’re mine forever.”

“Yes.”

Tang Beibei smiled and nodded. She was in his arms and did not notice the complex resolve in his eyes.

The next day, Tang Beibei went to school and met Fu Jin. Fu Jin told her that she and Ruan Qi had been hired.

Tang Beibei was so excited that she wanted to jump up and down. She couldn’t hold it in anymore and quickly went to find Ruan Qi to share the good news with her.

When Ruan Qi heard the good news, she did not hold back at all. She hugged Tang Beibei and cried out in surprise.

“I finally joined a professional dance troupe. 1’11 be part of a professional dance company and can earn more money!”

Tang Beibei smiled and nodded repeatedly. She waited for Ruan Qi to calm down before they thanked Fu Jin together.

“No need to thank me. You earned it with your good performance and ability. But the training will be very tough, and you’ll have to endure it.”

Tang Beibei and Ruan Qi immediately stood up straight and nodded with smiles. “Please take good care of us in future, Captain!”

“I’m honored to be your captain. 1 hope we can all become great dancers one day!”

Fu Jin saw the corners of Tang Beibei’s mouth curl up like a crescent moon at night. He was infected by her smile and smiled too.

He also told them that he would arrange a welcome ceremony for them this weekend. They should clear their weekend schedule as they might be spending both days in the dance studio.

Tang Beibei and Ruan Qi both loved dancing and were happy to dance on weekends. They nodded in agreement.

The three of them went to class together. Just as class was about to end, Tang Beibei received a message from Song Kai. He said that he had something important to tell her and wanted to meet her.

Tang Beibei replied that she was in the teaching building and her class would end in a few minutes.

Song Kai said that he would come and find her, and Tang Beibei agreed. She put down her phone and turned her attention back to class.

After class, she packed her things and walked out of the classroom. The teaching building was buzzing with activities as students move about.

Tang Beibei saw Song Kai in a suit at the entrance of the teaching building. He was strong and muscular but he didn’t look bulky in a suit. Instead, he looked tall, sturdy, and peppy.

“Beibei, 1 have something very, very important to tell you.”

Song Kai walked through the crowd up to Tang Beibei. Before she could ask him what it was about, he ignored everyone’s gazes and pulled her along as he

ran..
