"My teacher said that Mr. Zhang from the Beijing National Chorus would also be here. He had a new song and was looking for soloists nationwide. I had hoped to use this song to win Mr. Zhang's favor.
Now... nothing is possible."
As he spoke, Xia Qiu started to cry again.
"You've been possessed by the river spirit, you can't stop crying. If you don't have this song, why don't you prepare another one?"
"The chance to sing solo was snatched away by Shen Qiurong, so how can I still have a chance?"
Lu Cheng suddenly said, "The team has asked families to prepare programs for the August 1st holiday, but no one has signed up yet."
Meng Si Ning smiled: "Isn't this an opportunity?"
Xia Qiu wiped away her tears: "Really? Si Ning, do you want to sign up with me?"
Meng Si Ning shook his head: "I can't stay here for a few days. I finally came here, and I want to spend more time with my husband. You can join in by yourself. It's a good opportunity to sing a solo and beat Shen Qiurong. I hate her very much."
Jiang Tang said: "Yes, I hate her too."
“But I don’t have a song.”
"You can ask Jiang Tang for help with this."
Meng Si Ning's words made Xia Qiu and Jiang Tang look at her.
"she?"
"I don't believe it."
"Although Tangtang doesn't have a good voice like yours, she is proficient in music."
Jiang Tang pursed her lips and glared at Meng Si Ning.
He Yan said, "Tangtang, you can sing? How come I didn't know?"
"Before I became a cadre, I competed with Xia Qiu for the solo position in the cultural troupe. Of course, it wasn't because I was inferior to him, but because someone broke my instrument."
Xia Qiu proved himself: "It's not me."
Jiang Tang snorted in annoyance.
Xia Qiu didn't want her help, so he pulled Meng Si Ning and said, "Si Ning, can't you help me choose a song?"
"No, I've only been back for a few years, so there are some things I don't fully understand. Jiang Tang is the only one who understands. But if you need anything these days, I can help you."
Xia Qiu pursed his lips and looked up at Jiang Tang.
He lowered his eyes, raised them again, and then lowered them again before he said, "Will you help me?"
"Is this your attitude of begging for help?"
"Jiang Laosan, don't forget, when you went to the countryside to sell tea, I helped you."
Jiang Tang couldn't refute this: "Okay. I can, but only if you can get a spot on stage."
Xia Qiu's tear-red eyes brightened up a little in an instant, and she looked at Lu Cheng expectantly.
Lu Cheng was stunned by her sudden action. After thinking for a moment, he nodded and said, "I'll ask for you."
Xia Qiu's mood instantly improved a lot.
She was angry these days, mainly because Gu Jingshen gave the matter of going on stage to Shen Qiurong.
As for Chen Qiurong's usual poor acting skills, only Gu Jingshen could fall for it.
She felt suffocated when she thought of her man who was busy taking care of other women all day long.
But after a while, there was a knock on the door, and the voice belonged to Gu Jingshen.
Xia Qiu was afraid that his coming in would disturb their meal, so he put down his chopsticks and left.
"Hey, she didn't even say thank you to me."
Meng Si Ning pulled her: "Okay, don't bother with her, she is feeling uncomfortable now."
Jiang Tang curled her lips. After dinner, Meng Si Ning sent them away.
Jiang Tang deliberately put some distance between the two men and whispered, "This male lead is really something. I don't know how he became the male lead with such a brain.
So many people are interested in it.”
"The male protagonist's setting is like this. Maybe... it's hard to change. Why not do the same as us and change souls?"
"He's not that lucky. It'll take two years for them to keep abusing him like that."
"Don't forget to help her get a song."
"How can I get it for her? Why did you move me out?"
"I just don't want Shen Qiurong to get what she wants. She spread rumors about me in the compound before, and I haven't gotten my revenge yet."
"Okay, buy a patriotic songbook at the mall and I'll help her revise it."
"Let me ask a waiter first, will it have any impact if songs from later generations are brought out?"
"Um."
"That's easy, don't worry. Tomorrow, let's go shopping together. Just the two of us."
"What's your family's feast?"
"I don't want to be with him. It's not free." After saying that, someone whispered, "It's not good to go to the scrap yard with him."
"I've been there, but I didn't get anything out of it."
"No way."
"I've raided it once before."
"Okay, then let's raid the state-owned restaurants tomorrow."
"Finish your sticky candy first."
He Yan, who was standing behind him, looked at the two people in front of him being so affectionate and said worriedly, "Cousin, do you have a sense of crisis?"
"What?"
"My wife and your wife, what they said seems to be different from other wives. It feels like they will leave me if I treat her badly."
Lu Cheng looked at him and smiled. How could he not hear it? "My wife grew up abroad, so it's normal for her to have such ideas, but I won't give her this opportunity."
"Tangtang must have been indoctrinated with this idea by her cousin's wife."
"What's the big deal? Can't you just be nice to her on weekdays? Don't be like today, just go across the street."
"The guy next door to you is stupid. How did he become the battalion commander?"
Lu Cheng smiled but said nothing.
After sending Jiang Tang away, Lu Cheng did not take his wife home.
Instead, he took her for a walk nearby. He felt that it was much quieter outside than at home.
