Chapter 284 If I Were You



Deputy Commander Peng left with satisfaction.

This time she was not in a hurry because she knew that this program would definitely be selected for the Spring Festival Gala.

What she had to do now was to package the program perfectly and then personally deliver the sample tape to Beijing - this time there must be no situation where it was returned halfway!

The provincial art troupe will also send a few more stage teachers and photographers to assist the Ning City Art Troupe in improving this program. Director Liang also arranged for Wu Shuang and others to start background production. Shao Jingque also put forward some suggestions of his own, striving to get the actors of the art troupe involved.

This made everyone very happy——

Even if they just show up on the Spring Festival Gala watched by the whole nation, it is a great honor, enough for them to talk about it for the rest of their lives!

Everyone dispersed happily, and Shao Jingque was about to go backstage with his guitar and harmonica, but was stopped halfway.

Shao Jingque looked calmly at Tang Yueru, whose face was flushing in front of him, with a slight curl of his lips. He knew what she was thinking without having to guess.

Without waiting for her to speak, Shao Jingque spoke first:

"You don't have to stare at me like that. I have nothing to do with your show being cancelled. Director Liang received a call informing him that Jing City Television had approved a folk song and dance program submitted by the Qi City Art Troupe. It was a new song composed by Master Wang Yi and was being performed for the first time in China, so their program was a must-see. You were unlucky to have chosen a program of the same type, so Jing City Television eliminated your show without a second thought."

"I'm not trying to explain myself to you. I saw your performance the other day and I think you're a talented singer and actress. You were just unlucky this time, and I feel sorry for you, so I'm saying a few more words. If you don't believe me, just ignore me."

Tang Yueru had prepared a lot of curse words, but she didn't expect Shao Jingque to speak to her so frankly. There was substance to his words and they didn't sound like they were made up on the spot.

Of course she knew Master Wang Yi, who was a very famous composer not only in Qi City, but also in the whole country. He had produced few new works in the past two years. If it was true as Shao Jingque said that the Qi City Art Troupe selected Master Wang Yi's new songs, then no one could compete with him.

The reason Shao Jingque gave did not seem false, because when the Spring Festival Gala was broadcast, people all over the country would be able to watch the show, and there was no need for her to tell a lie that would definitely be exposed.

Tang Yueru also didn't expect Shao Jingque to praise her ability to her face...

Aren't they competitors? What does she mean by that?

Although Tang Yueru is arrogant, she is not stupid. When she thinks about what Qu Jingyun said when he scolded her, she has already believed Shao Jingque's words about 70%. In addition, Shao Jingque inexplicably showed kindness to her and praised her ability, which made Tang Yueru not know how to react for a while.

Shao Jingque saw that she didn't say anything after listening, and her expression kept changing, but he didn't care. He turned sideways and was about to pass by her.

Tang Yueru held it in for a long time, but she still felt resentful in her heart.

If Shao Jingque had not been there on the day of the assessment, even if her program was eliminated, the provincial leaders, recognizing her ability, might have let her produce a new program, and she would not have been scolded so mercilessly by Deputy Director Qu.

Seeing Shao Jingque was about to leave, she couldn't help but retort:

"I don't need your regrets! The leaders are not here, so put away your hypocritical attitude!"

"No one is as good at pleasing the leaders as you are. To gain recognition, you're even willing to give up the opportunity to join the provincial art troupe. You want to make a big profit with a small investment, and you're not afraid of ending up with nothing!"

Tang Yueru thought for a long time, and finally came up with a more reasonable reason for Shao Jingque -

She just wanted to retreat in order to advance and win the favor of two leaders at the same time. If the program was really selected, no one could stop her from being transferred to the Provincial Art Troupe. If the program was not selected, she would have already earned a good performance in the eyes of Director Liang.

It seems that Shao Jingque is really a scheming woman!

After hearing Tang Yueru's words, Shao Jingque was not angry, and even found it a little funny. A philosophical question suddenly came to his mind -

Is it that human hearts are too complicated, which affects the environment, or is it that the environment is too complicated, which affects human hearts?

But no matter what, she will soon be free from this big dye vat.

Shao Jingque smiled. In fact, Tang Yueru was not that bad. If she had anything to say, she would say it openly. She was more like the female classmates in her school who regarded her as a competitor. She was conceited and competitive, but at least she was not like those bad-hearted girls who would harm others.

Shao Jingque thought about it, and in order to have a peaceful life before leaving, she whispered to Tang Yueru as she passed by:

"If I were you, I would treat this period as a dormant period. After the Spring Festival Gala, your good days will come."

She had seen Tang Yueru's professional ability and knew she was definitely a key figure in the Ning City Art Troupe. As long as she didn't act like those brainless people and did things foolishly during this period, no one in the troupe would be able to compete with her after she resigned. Wouldn't that be a good life for her?

"What do you mean by that?!"

Tang Yueru was stunned for several seconds before she came to her senses. At this moment, she could only see Shao Jingque's back staggering forward.

Shao Jingque didn't look back. She held the harmonica case in one hand and raised the other hand holding the harmonica above her head and shook it. She didn't answer. Time would naturally give her the answer.

......

The next day, Shao Jingque had a good time in the art troupe.

She thought Qu Jingyun would come to trouble her again, but for the first time in her life, he didn't appear in front of her for a whole day.

Tang Yueru also stayed away from her, only occasionally looking at her with a complicated look in her eyes.

Shao Jingque couldn't explain it either. She felt that the look in his eyes seemed to be three parts sympathy, three parts fear, and four parts suspicion. In short, it was good that he didn't cause trouble for her.

However, Fang Ya, seeing that Shao Jingque was so nice to her last time, thought that Wu Shuang didn't dare to ask Shao Jingque to help her get leave, so she came to talk to her with a shameless face.

As a result, she was pleasantly surprised to find that Shao Jingque was even more enthusiastic towards her than before. When she tried to offer to help Shao Jingque put on makeup, Shao Jingque agreed without saying a word, which made Liu Cuirong so angry that she stomped her feet.

Tang Yueru called Fang Ya several times, but Fang Ya pretended not to hear.

As soon as Shao Jingque came back, he replaced Tang Yueru's program. Isn't it obvious who will win and who will lose in this competition for the mainstay of the Ning City Art Troupe?

She's not stupid. If she were to continue to be Tang Yueru's assistant at this time, wouldn't that be asking for trouble?!

Shao Jingque took in all the twists and turns hidden in the dressing room, but kept his usual smile on his face.

When it was almost time to get off work, she walked out of the art troupe's gate and prepared to go to the Municipal People's Hospital, but she was stopped by two strange men.
