Chapter 129 Let’s Compete
Chu Mingzhou ignored Mu Youwei's attempts to smooth things over and started packing Lin Anan's things.
Qiao Xu had just returned from a mission for the army, so it would be inappropriate to chase him away, so they had to change his ward.
Lin Zihuai also reacted and hurried over to help.
Aunt Chu stood up, patted her clothes, and said to Tang Jingqiao with a cold face: "Xiao Tang, we have been friends for so many years, I won't say much. What you said today was really unpleasant, let's not see each other more in the future."
Tang Jingqiao couldn't believe it. She knew Aunt Chu's personality very well. She was an old lady who couldn't be more kind. She always did what she said.
She even changed the way she addressed herself.
Xiaotang?
Tang Jingqiao stood up suddenly and took two steps towards Aunt Chu, "Aunt, what do you mean by this? Just because I said something about Lin Zihuai, you want to cut off your relationship with me? My attitude is not very good, but that's because..."
Tang Jingqiao glanced at Chu Mingzhou resentfully, her eyes full of grievance and sadness.
Aunt Chu frowned tightly, and her voice became even colder when she spoke, "Our An An is still sick, so please say less."
Tang Jingqiao couldn't stand Aunt Chu's attitude anymore. She raised her hand and pointed at Lin Zihuai, "Besides, I'm telling the truth! Do you know who Youwei is?
He is the youngest and most talented member of the 300 art units in the entire Chinese army, and the living signboard of the military flag art troupe. What is Lin Zihuai? How dare he compare with me with such a shameless face? "
"Jingqiao!"
"Comrade Tang!"
"Tang Jingqiao!"
Qiao Xu, Mu Youwei and Chu Mingzhou spoke out to stop them almost at the same time, each with their own emotions.
Qiao Xu was filled with annoyance. He felt that her throwing a tantrum was too undignified. He also understood a lot of things clearly. Chu Mingzhou had no interest in Tang Jingqiao, and even his family members hated her extremely.
But what about Tang Jingqiao? She racked her brains to get close to others and used all kinds of means to attract their attention. Even a fool could tell the truth from all these things.
Mu Youwei was shocked and anxious, fearing that Tang Jingqiao would say something nonsense again. He didn't want to be an enemy of Captain Chu, especially since he was right in front of him...
Chu Mingzhou's eyes were cold and sharp, like a cold knife, stabbing straight at Tang Jingqiao, "You are considered a highly educated person, but this is all your upbringing?"
Aunt Chu was so angry that her body was shaking slightly. She raised her voice and said, "Xiao Tang, I usually think you are honest and I tolerate you a lot, but I didn't expect you to be so tactless!
Zihuai has just joined the art troupe, and you have already defined him, and your words are so harsh! Don't come to our house again in the future, we don't welcome you. "
Lin Zihuai's face flushed red, with both anger at being humiliated and frustration at not being favored. "Comrade Tang, I am a newcomer, but no one can predict the future. The art troupe relies on real skills, not on talking!"
Tang Jingqiao's eyes were reddened by the crowd's criticism, she felt very aggrieved, but she still stiffened her neck and refused to give in, "Real ability? You are a country bumpkin, can you call it real ability if you can play a musical instrument?
Don't forget, I'm from the Northwest Propaganda Department. I've met countless artists, all of whom you dare not imagine! So, if I say you can't do it, you just can't do it."
"Bang!"
Lin Anan was furious. She tried to sit up on the bed, but accidentally knocked over the cup.
The cup flew straight to Tang Jingqiao's feet, fell down with a thud, and splashed all over her.
“Ah~”
Tang Jingqiao screamed and quickly took two steps back.
Mu Youwei opened his mouth, obviously frightened, and quickly bent down to pick up the cup, "Comrade Lin, you are still sick, please don't be angry. I don't know what happened to Comrade Tang these days, she is not in a good mood, please bear with her, she doesn't mean what she said."
Lin Anan glanced coldly at Tang Jing and coughed lightly several times.
"My brother has been exposed to musical instruments since he was a child. He is proficient in wind organ, flute, harmonica and guqin. His skills are not extraordinary, but he is also top-notch.
Who do you think you are? Do you know much about musical instruments? What qualifications do you have to judge without any evidence? If you really don’t accept it, then come and fight! "
Tang Jingqiao was slightly stunned.
Then he reacted and sneered, "I come from a military family, I'm busy every day! Unlike you, you have nothing to do all day and just play with musical instruments.
Moreover, you have only achieved so much, taking advantage of your own strengths and comparing yourself with others' weaknesses, how ridiculous!"
Her words not only hit the Lin siblings in the face.
Mu Youwei's expression was also very strange at this time.
Lin Anan said, "You talked so much, but it turns out you can't do it at all?"
How could Tang Jingqiao withstand her provocation?
With a turn of his eyes, a plan came to his mind.
Since Lin Anan is so protective of her brother...
That would completely destroy Lin Zihuai, and this could all be considered a warning to Lin Anan!
"I can't do it. It's not a skill to compete with me. If you have the ability, compete with Mu Youwei!"
The atmosphere in the ward suddenly became extremely tense and everyone was shocked.
Chu Mingzhou walked quickly to Lin Anan's side, gently supported her shaky body, and felt very distressed. "Anan, don't be angry. We don't need to bother with her."
Lin Zihuai's eyes also heated up, he was touched and worried, he knew he couldn't compare to Mu Youwei, it would be embarrassing to compare...
Tang Jingqiao's gaze fell on the clasped hands of Lin Anan and Chu Mingzhou, and her eyes became even redder.
So angry!
Chu Mingzhou's gentleness and kindness were like a knife, stabbing her heart.
Clench your fists tightly!
Look away, don't want to look anymore.
But... I saw Lin Zihuai's uneasy look again.
Tang Jingqiao felt relieved and urged, "Do you really think that no one can stop you? Since your brother wants to use Youwei to become famous, then let him compete with Youwei! Why, you don't dare?"
"Comrade Tang!"
Mu Youwei felt a chill down his spine.
Tang Jingqiao turned her head and glared at him fiercely, signaling him to stop talking nonsense.
Mu Youwei waved his hands quickly, indicating that he did not want to compete.
Tang Jingqiao became even angrier, pulled him over, leaned close to him and whispered, "Don't forget about the Kyoto Propaganda Department..."
Mu Youwei stopped and looked hesitant.
"This kind of rubbish is nothing to you. It's just a piece of music, which will be solved in a few minutes. If you refuse even this, then I can refuse you too!"
The exchange between the two was very brief, just two sentences.
Mu Youwei sat down beside Qiao Xu's bed and said nothing.
Qiao Xu frowned and looked at him, his eyes as sharp as knives.
Mu Youwei shook his head at him and made a spoken gesture.
Lin Anan got up from the bed and let Chu Mingzhou put on her cotton-padded jacket. "Okay, let's compete."
Lin Zihuai clenched his teeth unconsciously and stared at his sister.
Lin Anan gave him a soothing look.
"You keep calling me a bumpkin. Then I'll show you what it means to be better than others!"
Tang Jingqiao laughed when she heard this, "Okay, then let's do it on the morning of the Lantern Festival! Doesn't your art troupe have a show on the night of the Lantern Festival? Let's take advantage of the crowds then and let everyone appreciate your extraordinary skills."
"OK."
