BXBX NOVEL Chapter 311 - 311: She’s His Pride!
Tang Beibei came out with a golden ticket and Ruan Qi went into the audition room. After five or six minutes, Ruan Qi also came out excitedly with a golden ticket.
Jiang Jingchen drove Ruan Qi back to the villa before taking Tang Beibei out on a date.
They went for dinner first before they headed to an arcade.
Tang Beibei had never been to an arcade so everything was new to her. Jiang Jingchen patiently taught her different games, from riding a motorcycle to playing basketball. They hung around and played for more than two hours, but Tang Beibei still hadn’t had enough.
It was getting late but the number of tokens they had didn’t decrease but increased instead.
The tokens were not refundable, so Tang Beibei had no choice but to keep them for next time.
Tang Beibei’s face was filled with disappointment and reluctance. Clearly, she had a lot of fun playing games at the arcade. Since she was rarely interested in other things, Jiang Jingchen told her he would buy her an ice cream as compensation.
Tang Beibei licked her lips when she heard that he was going to get ice cream.
“Will it be very cold to eat ice cream at this time? Sigh, it’s also quite expensive, right?”
Jiang Jingchen looked at her conflicted expression. She had eaten ice cream before, so she probably knew that ice cream wasn’t expensive but her expression clearly showed that she had never bought herself any before.
“It’s not expensive. It’s only five or six yuan. Couples can enjoy their buy-one-get-one-free offer.”
“We’re a couple. Let’s go buy ice cream!”
Tang Beibei quickly held his arm after she was convinced by the buy-one-get-one-free offer.
Tang Beibei happily took a bite of her ice cream. Although it was very cold, it was very sweet.
It was delicious!
Seeing that she was eating with relish, Jiang Jingchen suspected that her ice cream flavor was nicer so he lowered his head and took a bite of her ice cream.
Tang Beibei frowned. “Don’t steal mine. You have your own ice cream.”
His little woman was so protective of her food…
“Mmm. Yours indeed tastes better than mine.” Jiang Jingchen commented.
Tang Beibei laughed in frustration. She moved her ice cream away to prevent him from eating it while Jiang Jingchen wanted to snatch it away. They were fooling around when they suddenly heard a woman shout, “Is there a doctor here? Help!”
Tang Beibei’s face darkened when she saw a middle-aged woman convulsing on the floor. She gave her ice cream to Jiang Jingchen, ran over, and squatted down to check on the woman.
The woman was twitching all over and her body was shivering.
She calmly told the crying woman who shouted, “Don’t cry. Call 120. Does she have any chronic illnesses?”
“Heart, heart problem. She suddenly had a heart attack.”
The woman slowly stopped crying after she heard Tang Beibei. She regained some rationality and quickly called the emergency services.
Tang Beibei lay the patient flat on the floor and removed a hair clip from her head. She used the hair clip to stimulate the patient’s Neiguan acupoint on her wrist for a few minutes.
She used two more fingers to perform first aid. She used a lot of force that her face turned red.
Jiang Jingchen saw his little wife struggling and couldn’t care less about the ice cream. He threw both ice cream cones into the trash can and went up to take her bag from her and offered to help.
Tang Beibei asked him to press hard on the patient’s Neiguan acupoint while she stimulated her other acupoints.
After more than ten minutes, the patient on the floor opened her eyes and wailed in pain.
“She’s awake, she’s awake. My sister is awake!” The other woman cried emotionally.
“Thanks so much, little young miss. You saved my sister. I really don’t know how to thank you.”
Tang Beibei asked Jiang Jingchen to stop first aid too. She checked the patient’s pulse and asked the patient’s family not to touch or move her and wait for the doctors to arrive.
She hadn’t started her career as a doctor yet, so she could only try her best to help using the knowledge she had learned.
She also heaved a sigh of relief when the patient woke up.
When she pressed on the patient’s acupoints, she asked the patient if she felt better.
The woman on the floor stopped wailing and stared at Tang Beibei.
“I feel much better, thank you.”
“No need to thank me. It’s also fate that I could help you.”
The woman was very touched and held her hand.
At this moment, a few doctors came over with a stretcher and Tang Beibei made way for them.
“Madam, the doctors are here. You can rest assured now.”
A doctor examined her and confirmed that the patient’s life was no longer in danger. However, because she suddenly fainted, her prognosis was not optimistic and she must be taken to a hospital for a thorough checkup.
The patient was put on the stretcher. She was rather big and quite heavy. There was a female doctor among the group, and she found it difficult to lift the patient.
Tang Beibei wanted to help, but Jiang Jingchen passed her bag back to her, took over the female doctor and helped to move the patient into the ambulance.
The patient and the patient’s family kept thanking them. “Leave me your contact information so that I can thank you. If it weren’t for you, my sister…”
The sister of the patient started crying as she spoke. She felt desperate and hopeless when she saw her sister collapse and she didn’t know how to help her.
Jiang Jingchen looked at Tang Beibei, but Tang Beibei waved her hand with a smile. “You don’t need any contact information. It’s a good thing that you can both live well. I wish your sister a speedy recovery.”
“Oh, thank you!”
The patient’s sister was still thanking Tang Beibei, but the ambulance was leaving, so she had no choice but to go with the ambulance. She was very regretful that she did not get Tang Beibei’s contact information.
After the ambulance drove away, Jiang Jingchen took Tang Beibei’s bag again and held her in his arms.
“Were you scared?”
Tang Beibei shook her head with a smile and snuggled in his arms.
“I wasn’t scared. I was quite calm when I was helping her.”
Suddenly, the little woman pouted bitterly. “Hey, Mr. Jiang, where’s my ice cream?”
“In the trash can.”
Tang Beibei looked at the trash can regretfully. She hadn’t finished eating yet.
Jiang Jingchen pulled her back, afraid that she would rummage through the trash can.
“I’ll buy you another ice cream and reward you with a donut?”
“Thankyou, hubby!”
Jiang Jingchen looked at the little woman in his arms. She looked so different from the pouting woman just now or the woman who was calmly saving someone’s life earlier.
But this was his cute little wife.
Although she was only a sophomore in medical school, she could save lives with what he had learned.
She was his pride!
When the two of them got back to the villa, Ruan Qi rushed over to tell Tang Beibei, “Those people on the internet are too much. We just auditioned late for the competition. Did they have to scold us already? They must be too free!”
Tang Beibei was stunned. She turned on her phone and realized that there were indeed many taunts in the comments section.
She smiled and said, “That’s easy. We just have to post the golden tickets we got today.”
Ruan Qi’s eyes lit up. “That’s a great idea!”
The two of them took photos with their golden tickets and posted them. Immediately, new comments came in.
“Impressive! Both of them made it to the next round.”
“I agree with the person above!”
“This can’t be photoshopped to keep up appearances, right?”
“You were so quiet for the past few days. I thought you two were already eliminated. I wish you both all the best.”
“Making it through the auditions doesn’t mean anything. Their dancing is just average. They won’t make it till the end and are just there to make up numbers.”
Some netizens were encouraging while others were critical and sarcastic.
Tang Beibei turned off her phone and asked Ruan Qi, “Did we start the account to feel angry?”
“Of course not. It was just for fun.”
Their original intention was simple. If they made and posted their dance videos, they could earn more fans and better yet, money. If things didn’t work out, they would just treat it as a repository for their dance videos.
“We set up this account for fun so we must have fun, right? We can’t control what people say, so let’s not mind their comments. Read and forget.”
Tang Beibei didn’t like to see those negative comments either. Many people lashed out because they had negative emotions. If she was affected by those people, she would lose herself and not know why she danced.
“Qiqi, I suddenly realized a very serious question.”
“What’s that?” Ruan Qi was also nervous from her stern tone.
“We are going to be competitors.”
The corners of Ruan Qi’s lips twitched. She was still upset about the online comments, so how could she think about competing against Tang Beibei now?
She turned and went to the dance studio to practice.
She used to practice half-heartedly while Tang Beibei practiced with all her might. She knew the difference between the two of them very well.
She was not confident that she could win against Tang Beibei..
