Chapter 136 Tong Yue Asks for Help
The 7-day countdown was very long for Jiang Li, but even more torturous for Qin Ming.
He was in a state of panic every day, worried that Jiang Li would leave her. Even when accompanying Ms. Song in the ward, he was distracted.
Ms. Song, who had never suffered any setbacks in her life, encouraged him.
"Mingming, you have to be brave. Be honest with Ali. Even if she hits you, hates you, and wants to divorce you, you have to be brave enough to bear the consequences instead of just running away and not continuing to lie."
"Sincerity can move mountains and break rocks. As long as you love her with all your heart and try to influence her with all your sincerity, you will definitely get a good result."
"Believe Mom. Go see Ali. You don't have to wait seven days. The sooner the better!"
Qin Ming finally made up his mind to meet her as her husband.
"My dear wife! Let's have a formal date tomorrow night! I can't wait a moment! Baby!"
Before the meeting, Qin Ming had the most luxurious music restaurant in South City temporarily closed, serving him exclusively. With love as the theme and cats as the elements, the restaurant was decorated to resemble a dream castle, showcasing the promise of love everywhere.
"Jiang Li, I love you!"
"Jiang Li, I swear on my life that I will only love you in this life!"
"Jiang Li, I lied to you, but I'm willing to spend my whole life paying you back. Please forgive me, okay?"
……
Qin Ming was wearing the suit he wore on the day he got his marriage certificate, a silver mask, holding her favorite blue roses and a rare pink diamond worth nearly 100 million yuan, waiting for Jiang Li to come.
Jiang Li also put on a beautiful dress, 5 cm high heels, and put on exquisite makeup, and happily went to the appointment.
Unexpectedly, when the car was halfway through the drive, Tong Yue suddenly called.
"Ali, please do me a favor, okay? I'm participating in a stage talent show right now. My partner betrayed me and chose another girl. I really can't find a partner right now. Please help me out, okay?"
"Please, A-Li! You're the only one who can help me now. You're the only one among my friends who can dance and sing!"
Tong Yue is Jiang Li’s childhood friend and also her best friend who has always treated her well after Jiang Li’s family was in trouble.
After turning 11, Jiang Li had almost no friends, especially female friends, who were even fewer than none. Tong Yue was the only one.
Whenever Jiang Li encountered difficulties, Tong Yue always stepped forward without hesitation. Although they were not in the same city during college, she would always send one-third of her living expenses to Jiang Li every month.
This was the first time Tong Yue asked for help. Even if the sky fell, Jiang Li would rush over to help her get on stage.
"Okay, Yueyue, don't worry. I'm in South City now. Send me the address and I'll rush over right away. Also, send me the repertoire you want to perform so I can familiarize myself with it in advance."
Tong Yue's anxious heart finally settled down.
"My competition this time happens to be in South City. It starts at 7:30, and I'll be on stage around 8:20. You can still make it in time if you rush over now."
"That bastard and that little bitch plotted against me, trying to pull me down the rankings, but I'm not going to give in to her. Let's just pick the pieces we practiced when we were kids. Any one of them, even without rehearsal, we can play together perfectly. Now, I'm waiting for you."
"Okay!" Recalling the long-lost stage, Jiang Li's eyes were filled with infinite yearning.
When she was a child, Jiang Li was also good at singing and dancing. She could always get the best ranking in both school and city competitions.
Her and Tong Yue’s biggest dream is to become a singing and dancing star.
However, things did not go as planned. After her family suffered a tragedy, they left Yangcheng and moved to a remote town. She never had the chance to perform on a big stage again.
Even though she practiced diligently at home with her mother every day and her dance skills didn't fall behind, the high cost of art exams and intensive training ultimately deterred her from attending major art colleges.
Fortunately, she had a good cultural foundation and did not have the icing on the cake of art. However, she was admitted to the top-ranked University A in China with her excellent cultural scores.
Tong Yue was admitted to Kyoto Art College, and after graduation she went to Korea to be a trainee. Now she can finally debut.
This competition is her first public appearance.
Before going to the stage, Jiang Li called Qin Ming apologetically.
"I'm sorry, honey, I might not be able to go out with you tonight. I have a very, very, very good friend who is in trouble and urgently needs my help. I have to go to the rescue."
"She's my only best friend. She's also a close friend who's helped me many times when I was in trouble. If she asks, I have to comply. So, I can only say sorry. Can we make an appointment tomorrow, or the day after tomorrow?"
Qin Ming was full of expectations, but after receiving Jiang Li's call that he had stood up, he felt lost, melancholy, and a little relieved.
"Okay! It's okay! I'll wait for you tomorrow!"
"Hubby, you're so good! Ah~! Kiss you, kiss you, kiss you, kiss you... a hundred times!"
This was the first time Jiang Li said such cheesy words to her husband. Qin Ming's heart beat wildly a hundred times as her kiss traveled through space.
"Hahaha!" Qin Ming laughed out loud.
"Stop, stop, stop, stop... You said it, a hundred times, not one less. I don't want a virtual kiss. When I see you, I want to get it back for real."
"Okay! Not one less! I, Jiang Li, always keep my word! Honey, I'm in a hurry, so I won't talk to you anymore. Bye! What!~"
Qin Ming sat alone among the rose bushes, raised his glass, and imagined the beautiful scene of the little wild cat leaving 100 marks on his lips, and he was overjoyed.
Jiang Li didn't expect that Tong Yue would be participating in the show "Singing and Dancing Miracle" this time, and she would be on the same stage with Guan Yue.
However, this program is a weekly show. The first round of preliminary competition for the mentors has already concluded. Now it's the students' turn.
Jiang Li arrived at 7:20, and Tong Yue's performance was around 8:20. The two of them had no time to rehearse and get used to each other.
"Ali, what should I do? It's about to start! I'm so nervous. If I'm eliminated in the first round, my 20 registration fee and all the training fees will be wasted."
"Don't worry, I'm here! I'll definitely help you advance!"
Jiang Li gave Tong Yue a strategic look, then skillfully put on makeup.
Before coming, she went to a costume museum and chose two very expensive performance costumes, just to dazzle the audience on stage.
When Tong Yue saw the entire set of exquisite clothing and the phoenix crown on her head, she was so surprised that she couldn't believe it.
"Ali, where did you rent this dress? It's so beautiful!"
Jiang Li raised an eyebrow at her proudly. "What's the point of renting? I bought it. I spent over 30 yuan on it. So, you have to work harder, or you'll be sorry for my lavish spending."
Tong Yue rubbed against him like a clingy puppy. "Ali, I love you so much!"
"30 is nothing. I stood up my husband on our first date because of your competition. So, if you don't advance, I'll tear you apart!"
Tong Yue was so surprised that her facial features were all stretched open, and several layers of makeup fell off.
"What? You have a husband? You got married? When did it happen? And you didn't even tell me?"
