She was gnawing on a roasted pig's trotter in one hand and drinking an iced milkshake in the other.
The interplay of hot and cold creates an indescribable sense of exhilaration.
But it only feels good for a short time; when you have diarrhea in the afternoon or evening, it won't feel good anymore.
The snack street was very large, and Qiao Nansheng walked around it, trying all the snacks she liked.
After eating and drinking her fill, she took out her phone to check the time. Seeing that it was getting late, she went to buy two more roasted pig's trotters to take home and eat. However, while queuing, someone suddenly recognized her.
"Oh, it's that girl who trended on Weibo with Cheng Ge!"
Suddenly, a girl exclaimed from behind, and then Qiao Nansheng's clothes were tugged twice.
She turned around and saw a short girl standing behind her, blinking her big eyes at her: "Hello, miss, are you and Brother Cheng really friends?"
Qiao Nansheng never expected that buying a roasted pig's trotter would lead to encountering Zhou Cheng's fans: "..."
So, after trending on social media alongside Zhou Cheng, she also became "famous"?
"Miss?" the short girl called out again when she didn't speak.
Qiao Nansheng snapped out of her reverie and softly hummed in agreement, "Yes. Is there anything I can help you with?"
"Wow~ It really is!" The short girl turned to her friend and said, then turned back to Qiao Nansheng and smiled, "It's nothing, I was just surprised to see it and came up to say hello."
Qiao Nansheng smiled but didn't say anything.
The short girl exclaimed again, "Wow! You're so pretty, miss!"
"You're cute too," Qiao Nansheng replied with a gentle smile, then winked at her.
The short girl's heart pounded from the electric shock, her cheeks flushed instantly, and she turned and snuggled into her friend's arms, wailing, "Ahhh! Brother Cheng is so gentle, and his friends are so gentle and beautiful too! What should I do? I think I've fallen for this girl."
Her friend gave Qiao Nansheng an awkward smile, then pulled the shorter girl and quickly turned to leave, feeling utterly humiliated.
"Can't you be a little more reserved! This isn't Zhou Cheng, why are you getting so excited?"
"Waaah~ But the girl knows Brother Cheng! When I talk to her, it's like I'm indirectly talking to Brother Cheng!!"
"..."
Not only were the short girl's friends stunned, but Qiao Nansheng was also taken aback by this logical idea.
Is this even possible?
"Your roasted pig's trotters are ready."
Qiao Nansheng turned around, took the two roasted pig trotters from the waiter, and went back to the Huaying training room.
It was only a little past one o'clock, and the afternoon training was not until two o'clock. Xu Yanqing had not returned yet, so Qiao Nansheng sat down in a chair, took out the roasted pig's trotters that had cooled down and started eating them, while taking out his phone to watch "Man vs. Wild" that he had missed last night.
After watching for only a few minutes, there was a knock on the training room door. Qiao Nansheng looked up and saw the door open a crack, and a head peeked in.
The man looked around the training room, but couldn't find the person he was looking for, so he asked Qiao Nansheng, "Hello~ Is Xu Yanqing here?"
"Teacher Xu went to eat and hasn't come back yet," Qiao Nansheng replied.
"Oh, I see. Sorry to bother you." The head popped out again and carefully closed the door.
Qiao Nansheng lowered her head again and continued to gnaw on the pig's trotter.
At 1:30, Zhou Cheng sent her a message.
Z: Amy didn't come today? Who's teaching you to dance?
Qiao Nansheng clicked on the message box that popped up above.
Xiao Qiao hasn't gotten any stronger today either: Xu Yanqing, what's wrong?
Z: ...I knew it. Don't practice this afternoon. Go home and practice when Amy comes back. You can practice at home for the next few days.
Xiao Qiao didn't get any stronger today either: ? ? ? Why?
When Zhou Cheng, who was far away in another province, saw her ask why, he couldn't help but frown. What else could it be? He was more worried that she liked looking at handsome men and that her eyes would be fixed on Xu Yanqing.
Looking across the entertainment industry, only Xu Yanqing can compare to him.
If it were anyone else, Zhou Cheng would be completely calm and composed, but Xu Yanqing…
Zhou Cheng was somewhat unsure of himself. He thought about how Qiao Nansheng liked looking at handsome men so much. What if, while he was away from home, Xu Yanqing was giving her lessons every day, and she "fell for someone else"?
Although she doesn't like him now, Zhou Cheng still remembers the two times she mentioned divorce before.
He was silent for a moment, then replied: "He has some problems. For your safety, you should go home."
Xiao Qiao didn't get any stronger today: an infectious disease? ???
Xiao Qiao didn't get any stronger today: I'm a little skeptical of what you're saying.
Xiao Qiao didn't get any stronger today: Zhou Cheng, are you thinking about how I was alone with him in a room, and how he inevitably touched on my jealousy when he was teaching me to dance?
Xiao Qiao didn't get any stronger today: But that doesn't mean you have to make up stories about someone being sick, does it? You're such a mean person.
Zhou Cheng's brow twitched violently when he saw the message she sent.
Z: When did I say he was sick?
Xiao Qiao didn't get any stronger today: You didn't say that. So you admit you're jealous?
Z: Go home!!
Xiao Qiao didn't get any stronger today: I won't, hehehe~ I'll make you angry!
Z: ...
Zhou Cheng looked at the few "lèlè" emojis she sent, and then at the messages she had sent before, especially the one about jealousy. His brows furrowed more and more, and the image of Xu Yanqing dancing with her in his arms flashed through his mind.
His mood plummeted at a visible speed, and he became very unhappy.
Zhou Cheng had a strong urge to fly back right now and carry Qiao Nansheng home with him.
He took a deep breath and sent her a voice message.
His tone softened – “Yes, I’m jealous, I’m unhappy. Honey, let’s go home.”
Qiao Nansheng, after listening to the voice message, was speechless. His ears turned slightly red because of his wife's natural way of speaking.
She took a bite of the pig's trotter and slowly typed.
Xiao Qiao didn't get any stronger today: Actually, there's no need for that. We were just practicing dancing, we didn't do anything else.
Z: "But I'm not happy. I don't like you being alone in a room with him. Can you listen to me this time? I'll bring you a gift when I come back."
Qiao Nansheng's eyes lit up when she heard about the gift. Too lazy to type, she sent a voice message: "Then I want the most expensive gift! Something beautiful, and no anklets allowed!" The last five words were almost said through gritted teeth.
Z: "Okay."
Qiao Nansheng was satisfied: "Okay, I'll tell him later."
But if Xu Yanqing doesn't allow it, there's nothing she can do.
…
Xu Yanqing returned from outside at 1:50.
He looked like he had run all the way back; after taking off his mask, his face was flushed and had an unnatural redness. His breathing was unsteady and he was panting heavily.
Qiao Nansheng blinked. "Teacher Xu is being pursued?"
