Tang Beibei’s mind went blank when she fell.

Suddenly, someone grabbed her arm and held her waist to help her up. Only then did she stand firm and not fall to the floor miserably.

“Are you okay, Tang Beibei?”

Tang Beibei was stunned for a few seconds before she came back to her senses and looked at the worried man.

It was Jia Ran who saved her.

“Tang Beibei, did you hurt your feet?”

The man spoke softly, his voice gentle.

Only then did Tang Beibei realize that she was still in his arms. She quickly stood up, but she felt a sharp pain in her ankle.

She cried out softly and looked down. “I’m sorry, I, I think I sprained my ankle.”

Jia Ran frowned. Any dancers whose feet were injured would be out of action for a while.

He quickly bend down to check her ankle. Fortunately, Tang Beibei was not wearing high heels.

“Your ankle looks a little swollen. Go back, ice it and apply some medicine. It’s not a big problem. Don’t worry.”

He was afraid that she would feel down if she hurt her ankle, so he comforted her softly.

“I’ve pulled my ligament before dancing, but I recovered from it. I’ll support you. Walk slowly.”

“Thank you.”

Jia Ran smiled indifferently. “We’re friends. You are most welcome.”

“Beibei, what happened?” Ruan Qi hurried over to support her.

“I accidentally fell.”

Tang Beibei turned and looked behind her. It was time to get offstage, and there were many people behind her.

But she wouldn’t fall for no reason.

She looked at Jin Zhao, who was looking down at her phone as if she had no idea what just happened.

Tang Beibei could only endure it and walk down the steps with Ruan Qi.

Jin Zhao looked up from her phone at the limping Tang Beibei and smiled coldly.

She deliberately embarrassed Tang Beibei but Jia Ran saved her like a hero in front of so many people. It was really annoying!

How dare an ignorant newbie compete with her? It was absurd!

Tang Beibei didn’t know that it was Jin Zhao and staggered back to her seat. Fu Jin learned that her ankle was injured and squatted down to check. Her ankle was a little swollen, but it wasn’t serious.

He bent down and offered to piggyback her. “Come. Let me take you to the hospital to get medicine.”

“That’s not necessary. I can walk on one leg.”

“If you walk on one leg, you will inevitably overwork your good leg. If you want to dance again, come up!” Fu Jin’s tone was stern.

Ruan Qi was worried too and persuaded, “Beibei, let our captain carry you. Your legs are the most important now.”

Tang Beibei had no choice but to let Fu Jin piggyback her.

When the others saw what they were doing, Xi Tong cursed under her breath, “Tang Beibei is so shameless. She already has a husband, yet she seduced Fu Jin. Whatab*tch!”

Chen Xixi heard her and didn’t say anything, but she looked at Tang Beibei with contempt.

Tang Beibei had a tall, rich, and handsome husband but was having an affair with their dance captain. Some women were just cheap!

The two of them cursed Tang Beibei for being disgusting in their hearts, but they still had a smile on their faces. Xi Tong walked up to her and asked, “Beibei, we need to form teams now. How about we form a team? I also have foundation in classical dance.”

Ruan Qi rolled her eyes in disdain. “Xi Tong, use your eyes. I’m still here. What makes you think that Tang Beibei wants to form a team with you?”

Xi Tong said indignantly, “Tang Beibei didn’t even say anything. I’m just saying. Beibei may choose me. After all, my current ranking is higher than yours.”

Xi Tong did well this time. She was in 12th place, even better than Tang Beibei. She was confident that Tang Beibei would choose to team up with the better dancers.

Tang Beibei said, “I’m sorry, I’ll be working with Qiqi. We live together so it’ll be easier for us to rehearse.”

Xi Tong’s mouth twitched. Was Tang Beibei out of her mind?

Her results were better than theirs, but Tang Beibei didn’t choose her.

Chen Xixi, who played spectator all this while, chuckled softly when she saw Xi Tong make a fool of herself. She also wanted to ask Tang Beibei but she would keep her mouth shut now.

Xi Tong heard Chen Xixi’s chuckle and glared at her gloomily before she quickly walked away.

Jia Ran took his bag and walked over to add Tang Beibei on WeChat. Ruan Qi got Tang Beibei’s phone for her.

After adding Jia Ran, Yao Xuan came over too. After adding Tang Beibei on WeChat, both of them asked if she had found a partner and if they could form a team.

Tang Beibei didn’t expect them to ask her to form a team. She explained helplessly that she already had a partner.

The two of them looked regretful.

Tang Beibei was speaking with them when she suddenly felt a dangerous gaze on her. She looked up and saw the man in front of her. There was anger in his dark eyes as he raised his eyebrows at her with his arms crossed.

She felt a chill down her spine and patted Fu Jin guiltily to put her down.

Fu Jin said, “Beibei, don’t be stubborn. Your ankle…”

“I’m not being stubborn. It’s just that, my, my husband is here. He, he seems angry.”

Her tone was so cautious that she sounded like she was about to cry.

It was very hard to pacify her husband if he got angry.

Fu Jin looked up and saw the tall man in front of him. His eyes were filled with anger, like he was about to incinerate him.

Fu Jin gulped. When this man looked scary, his aura could make people tremble in fear!

He put Tang Beibei down carefully. Tang Beibei hopped up to her husband and smiled obsequiously.

“Hubby, you’re here. Hehe.”

When she moved close to him, the man did not meet her halfway. Instead, he took a step back as if she was dirty.

“Oh, you still remember that you have a husband? That is a surprise.”

His cold voice pricked the inside of her ears like needles.

Tang Beibei felt guilty. She hopped again, hoping to hold on to his arm, but the man dodged again.

“Isn’t it nice to have someone piggyback you? Why are you coming to me?”

Fu Jin, who was not far away, saw the two of them arguing and Tang Beibei still hopping on one foot. He wanted to go over and explain, but Ruan Qi stopped him.

“It’s best if you don’t get involved in other people’s relationships. Beibei will explain.”

“Jiang Jingchen has a bad temper. Will he believe Tang Beibei?”

“I’m not sure about that either. However, the two of them only have sweetness for each other. We will be the ones suffering.”

“…?”

Fu Jin gave Ruan Qi a puzzled look. Ruan Qi told him to calm down and patiently watch the drama unfold.

Tang Beibei’s eyes reddened when she saw the man avoid her and didn’t want to get close to her.

“No. I hurt my ankle and Fu Jin piggybacked me to help me.”

“You are hurt?”

Jiang Jingchen’s tone became serious. He moved close to her and checked her foot. “When you’re hurt, you think of other men instead of me. Good for you.”

“That, that’s because you weren’t here.”

Jiang Jingchen heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that her injury wasn’t serious.

She was a dancer. If her feet were injured, she would be greatly affected.

“Are you blaming me? When you added other men on WeChat, you also never consulted me.”

Tang Beibei rubbed her nose guiltily and didn’t dare to speak.

The anger in Jiang Jingchen’s eyes didn’t subside when he saw that her injury wasn’t serious. He mocked her further, “I let you dance, and this is how you dance?”

Tang Beibei tugged at his sleeve coquettishly. “I don’t know what happened either. I just fell. Maybe it’s because I missed you too much.”

Jiang Jingchen’s cold face remained. He raised his hand and poked her between her eyebrows. “You just wished that I would come later so you can chat with other men and enjoy their service, right?”

“Unfair. That’s unjust accusation. Why would I ever wish that?”

Tang Beibei was innocent and quickly explained, “My husband is super good. He has a nice voice, and he speaks well. I love everything about him and don’t care about other men.”

The man looked at her, unmoved.

Tang Beibei went all out. “My dearest Brother Jing, my ankle hurts.”

When she called him “Brother Jing”, his knees went soft.

So did his heart..
