Chapter 301 - 301: Hubby, Are You Confessing to Me?
Tang Beibei and Ruan Qi were unaware of the fervent discussion online.
After they finished their dance, the male host invited them to do another one.
Jiang Jingchen was the first to object. His wife was still recovering from her injuries and shouldn’t strain herself.
Since Jiang Jingchen objected, the other three also didn’t dare to speak up. They bade farewell to the host.
The host was disappointed and asked to add them on WeChat, hoping that they could work together again in future.
But all four of them ignored him, mainly because Jiang Jingchen face was so dark that the other three wished they could run away quickly. How would they dare to add him on WeChat?
It was date night after Ruan Qi submitted her homework. Song Zhou and Ruan Qi went in a separate direction to avoid watching Jiang Jingchen’s lovey-dovey with Tang Beibei.
Jiang Jingchen brought Tang Beibei to a bustling food street.
There were many stalls and hawkers along the street, and all kinds of food.
The food smells made Tang Beibei a little hungry.
Jiang Jingchen held her hand and went to find food.
He knew that she couldn’t bear to spend money, but he still bought her a small portion of whatever she was interested in. If he bought it, she would have to eat it because she disliked wastefulness.
After Tang Beibei ate her fill and rubbed her stomach with a satisfied smile, the two of them found a bench to sit on.
Jiang Jingchen asked, “Are you tired?”
“No. I’ve been cooped up at home for so long. I’m very happy to be finally out and about.”
Seeing the woman’s innocent and cute smile, Jiang Jingchen put her on his lap and was about to pinch her face when Tang Beibei stopped him.
“Stop. Don’t pinch my face. I have foundation on and it will get on your hands if you pinch me.”
Jiang Jingchen didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. He looked down at her and said, “Then tell me, what flavor is your lipstick?”
“Hmm?”
“Let me taste it for you.” The man pressed his lips on hers.
After the kiss, her lips turned even redder.
There was also some lipstick on his lips.
Tang Beibei found it funny and smiled as she took out a tissue to wipe his lips. His natural lip color was very light. When he pursed his lips with a straight face, he looked quite intimidating.
The two of them chatted softly and watched the crowd when they weren’t speaking.
Jiang Jingchen suddenly exclaimed, “Among thousands of people in the boundless wilderness of time, I caught up just at the right time, not a minute earlier or a minute later.”
“Caught up to what?” Tang Beibei was puzzled.
“You.”
Tang Beibei was stunned. She thought for a while before she asked in surprise, “Hubby, are you confessing to me?”
Wasn’t it obvious?
“Hehe, I’m also very lucky to have met you.”
Tang Beibei felt that her sentence was a little dry, but she was not good with words and did not know what to say to express her feelings for him.
“Hubby, let’s go home now.”
“What’s the matter?” She sounded quite anxious.
“I’m not good with words, but I agree with you. Actions speak louder than words.” Her cheeks flushed red as she stole a glance at him before she lowered her eyes quickly.
“Let’s go home. I’ll do, do that thing with you.”
“Do what thing?”
Tang Beibei knew that he was teasing her and buried her head shyly in his chest.
Jiang Jingchen was very happy with her initiative. He stroked her back and kissed the tip of her ear.
“There’s no hurry. Let’s join in the festivities here and play some more when we get home.”
H 11
When Tang Beibei heard him say “play some more”, she felt her heart pound so hard that she thought it might burst out of her chest.
School started the day after Lantern Festival.
Ruan Qi let out a scream early in the morning. Tang Beibei, who was about to walk down the stairs, was so startled that she staggered. Fortunately, Jiang Jingchen was behind her to prevent her from falling.
Jiang Jingchen frowned unhappily. “Ruan Qi, are you doing vocal exercises?”
Ruan Qi realized that she had been too loud, but she couldn’t care less. She ran up to Tang Beibei excitedly and said, “Beibei, our fanbase has grown to 1.7 million. It had increased by 900,000 in one night!”
Last night, their account only had 700,000 to 800,000 fans. It was no wonder Ruan Qi was so happy.
“That’s good news.”
Tang Beibei also smiled. The four of them were too busy with their dates last night and hadn’t bother with their phones.
Tang Beibei frantically searched for her phone but couldn’t find it. It was Jiang Jingchen who eventually found her phone on the sofa in the living room.
She turned on her phone and checked their account. Not only did they have more fans, but they also received more than two million Likes and tens of thousands of comments.
Tang Beibei only felt a sense of reality after she saw the data. There were really people who appreciated their dance.
Some netizens praised them sincerely, but there were also some who scolded them.
They said that their Lantern Festival dance was deliberately arranged; it was a team production and the surrounding was noisy and the video was disgusting.
There were also people who commented that their makeup was too heavy and was an insult to ancient beauties, that they were probably ugly after they removed their makeup.
Ruan Qi was a little angry when she read the negative comments. However, she had seen similar insults before. If she got angry at every one of them, she would die of anger.
“We are also very popular on Weibo. Apparently, we made it to the list of trending searches last night, but I didn’t even witness it. What a pity!”
As a nobody, Ruan Qi was extremely excited to be on the list of trending searches, albeit just for a short time.
“Let’s keep up the good work. There will be opportunities in the future.” Tang Beibei encouraged.
Ruan Qi had high hopes too. “Yes, yes. Let’s keep at it and we’ll be able to make money soon.”
Their account had a lot of fans, so they could get advertisers and make a profit.
Tang Beibei was very happy to hear that they could make money. The two of them discussed their upcoming videos over breakfast.
On the first day of school, Song Zhou still couldn’t drive, so Jiang Jingchen drove the girls to school.
After they got out of the car at school, Tang Beibei walked to the driver’s window and hooked her finger at the man.
Puzzled, Jiang Jingchen stuck his head out of the car window and asked, “Obedient Beibei, what’s the matter?”
The little woman did not say anything. She just kissed him on the cheek and said shyly, “Thank you for driving me, Hubby.”
Jiang Jingchen looked up at her with his dark eyes.
It was rare for his little woman to be so proactive.
“Was that the cab fare?”
“Yes.”
Jiang Jingchen smiled. “I’ll accept it. I don’t mind this mode of payment for all your future rides.”
Tang Beibei added, “Also, thank you for buying me the clothes and making me the lantern.”
Jiang Jingchen raised his handsome eyebrows. “Didn’t you already thank me last night?”
“Or you feel that you haven’t thanked me enough… Let’s continue tonight.”
Tang Beibei’s face turned red when she thought about last night. It was clearly still early spring but her body felt hot.
Tang Beibei didn’t want to talk to him anymore. She turned and went to school.
Jiang Jingchen touched his face where Tang Beibei had kissed him with his fingertips as he watched Tang Beibei walk away. He could still feel her breath.
He then started the car to go to work and play his rich young master role at Jiang Corporation.
Meanwhile in school when Tang Beibei arrived at her classroom, some of her classmates surrounded her. They said that their Lantern Festival dance video was really good and asked her how they made it.
“Tang Beibei, you’re famous now!”
“When I browsed Weibo last night, I realized that many people had shared your video. The videos you took are all very textural. Did someone help you produce them?”
“What equipment do you guys use? The picture quality is so good. It’s probably expensive, right?”
Tang Beibei was surprised by everyone’s enthusiasm, but when their questions seem to imply that they had hired a professional team to produce their videos. She and Ruan Qi looked at each other and frowned.
Ruan Qi said, “We don’t have a professional team. The videos were recorded using mobile phones and a friend helped us with editing and post-production. It usually takes about an hour from recording to post-production.”
Their classmates were doubtful. The final products were so good. Who would believe that they didn’t use professionals?
Tang Beibei was married to a rich second-generation heir. Her husband must have spent money to make her an internet celebrity and get her the attention she needed to satisfy her vanity.
A girl sat back down in her seat and posted an anonymous message below Tang Beibei’s dance video, “The vloggers are very weak and pretentious people. They are also very ugly and spoiled. Everyone, don’t be deceived by their pure and innocent appearance.”
P.S. from the author: 1 wanted to celebrate after 1 wrote 300 chapters because when I was writing alone, 1 always felt that my writing wasn’t good enough. It was all quite depressing.
But now that I’ve reached Chapter 300,1 am feeling a little excited.
My dear readers, do celebrate this milestone with Ming Zhi. Please leave me Likes, messages and rewards.. I’ll be waiting!
