Jiang Jingchen said that she was missing something. Tang Beibei was puzzled and then she heard the man say, “It’s Lantern Festival today. Of course, you got to have a lit lantern.”

As Jiang Jingchen spoke, he anxiously stuffed the lantern he had hidden behind the coffee table into her hand, like he was afraid that she would reject his gift. “Wow, what an exquisite lantern!”

Tang Beibei looked at the lantern in surprise. It was an octagonal paper lantern with Chinese brush painting and inscription on each of its eight sides.

She felt like she had struck gold.

Jiang Jingchen was happy that she liked it, but he didn’t show any expression on his face and just grunted politely.

He then asked her if she liked it and Tang Beibei raised her head and kissed him on the cheek.

“I like it very much. Thank you, Hubby!”

“You are welcome.” Jiang Jingchen was acting cool, keeping his face calm.

Song Zhou’s lips twitched when he saw Jiang Jingchen give the lantern away so naturally.

His young master had stolen his lines!

When he sensed Ruan Qi’s sparkling eyes on him, he said with slight embarrassment, “Lantern Festival lanterns can exorcise demons, bring blessings, and represent our wish for a bright future. Miss Ruan, 1 hope that you will be safe and sound in the future like a lucky koi fish. May all your wishes come true.”

Song Zhou then handed her a lantern, which had koi fish on it.

Ruan Qi did not expect him to give her the lantern that she had wanted for a long time. She was surprised and delighted.

“Mr. Song, if your blessings come true, I’ll be yours. Then we’ll be safe and sound together. May all our wishes come true.”

When Song Zhou heard her say “I’m yours”, he was overjoyed and held her hand.

The four of them went out together.

The city streets were decorated festively with many lanterns over Lantern Festival. The streetlights were bright, and people were coming and going. The city was buzzing on the night of Lantern Festival.

Tang Beibei and Ruan Qi went out in their Han clothes carrying their lit lanterns. Their good looks and trim figures attracted many onlookers.

Many people stopped and took out their phones to take photos and videos of them. Someone commented that they had transmigrated from ancient times to celebrate the festival with them.

Tang Beibei laughed in amusement but since everyone praised her, she bowed politely to them.

Her every move was like a well-mannered young miss from an ancient family. Her every frown and smile carried an ancient charm.

Traditional Han clothing was a national symbol that was quite trendy. Illuminated by the streetlights above her head, Tang Beibei’s cheeks looked pink and she looked more beautiful than peach blossoms and more delicate than the flowers in early spring.

Ruan Qi asked Tang Beibei if she was afraid of being surrounded by so many people.

Tang Beibei waved her hand. There was nothing to be afraid of, but it was quite embarrassing to be stared at.

Ruan Qi then suggested that they record a dance video on the streets.

After all, there weren’t many opportunities to wear Han costumes in public. Moreover, the mood felt right.

Tang Beibei hesitated. Dance on the streets?

Ruan Qi gave her a serious nod. Fu Jin said that they had to find every opportunity to perform. They had to overcome stage fright so they wouldn’t be afraid when they go onstage in the future.

“This video will be my homework to be submitted today. Just take it as helping me finish my homework.” Ruan Qi felt a little depressed talking about her homework.

Tang Beibei could do a simple dance with no problem. Since she was helping Ruan Qi finish her homework, she felt she shouldn’t refuse.

But she turned to look at Jiang Jingchen. “Hubby, do you mind if I dance here?”

Jiang Jingchen raised his eyebrows. This was what she wanted to do, but to his surprise, she cared about his opinion.

“I do!”

“What?”

“My wife is too beautiful. I’m afraid she’ll be snatched away.”

Tang Beibei was quite worried just now. Not only was he her husband, but he was also very easily jealous.

However, after hearing what he said, she cracked a bright smile and tilted her head to look cuter and a little more playful.

“I won’t be snatched away. I’m not an object. If someone dares to snatch me away, it will be kidnapping and a crime!”

Jiang Jingchen chuckled. Flirting with her usually led to unintended outcomes.

Then, he heard the woman say, “Can I dedicate my dance to you?”

“Sure.”

How could he refuse if she wanted to dance for him?

Ruan Qi turned to look at Song Zhou. “What do you have to say?”

“Hmm?”

Song Zhou was stunned for two seconds before he immediately said, “You have my full support. I’ll help you find a venue.”

Ruan Qi was dismayed. She was hoping to hear flirtatious words!

Song Zhou walked for a while and found a square in front of them. There were buskers performing on the open square, with sound equipment and streaming their performances live.

Many streamers would sing on the streets nowadays to attract eyeballs.

Song Zhou went up to a singer and asked to borrow his sound equipment. When the streamer heard that they were going to dance, his only request was to allow him to live stream their performance.

Ruan Qi had no problem with that. All she wanted to do was finish her homework as soon as possible so she could go on her date with her boyfriend.

They were going to play an ancient song without lyrics using the sound equipment but the streamer offered to sing for them.

The three of them discussed and finally decided on a recent popular song “Grain in Ear”.

When the music started, they immediately attracted an audience. Everyone took out their phones to take videos and photos.

Tang Beibei and Ruan Qi danced to the rhythm. They had good rapport, and their movements were smooth and neat.

Their footsteps were light as clouds, like fairies or spirits moving elegantly in the clouds.

There was a bridge arranged in the style of electronic music in “Grain in Ear”. When the tempo picked up, Ruan Qi and Tang Beibei also picked up their speed and moved with agility and strength.

The audience was fascinated. When the music stopped, there was a burst of applause. It felt like a concert.

Song Zhou and Jiang Jingchen were busy recording the girls’ dance. They were reluctant to move their phones away even after the girls had stopped.

Jiang Jingchen swept his camera across the audience to capture their applause. When he saw his wife panting, he put his phone away and gave her his handkerchief.

Tang Beibei took it with a smile. She turned around and saw that everyone liked their dance. She was so happy that she wanted to jump for joy.

She hadn’t danced for a while, and she was afraid that she had forgotten the dance sequence. Unexpectedly, when the music started, she forgot all those fears.

She was so excited that her hands were still trembling. She grabbed Jiang Jingchen’s big hand as she said, “Hubby, I’m so happy that the audience likes my dance.”

“Yes, Obedient Beibei, I’m also your audience.”

Tang Beibei blushed and looked at him shyly. She lowered her head and wiped her sweat, but her heart was beating fast.

The male streamer looked at his live broadcast room. There were initially 50,000 to 60,000 viewers but since the girls started dancing, the number of viewers had increased to 100,000. Moreover, many of the live comments were about the girls, asking if they were fairies because they were so beautiful.

The host looked at the two girls. They were indeed beautiful. With their Han costumes and ancient lanterns, they looked even more stylish.

There were also viewers who asked the host if he had deliberately invited the girls to dance to boost his own popularity.

The host smiled and explained, “If 1 have the money to hire two beautiful girls, would 1 need to live stream from the streets? They were just passing by and were dancing for their partners.”

“Wow, so romantic!”

“Oh my god, what kind of men can get the love of these two fairies?”

“Please don’t feed us lovey-dovey on Lantern Festival. That’s cruel!”

“Eh, these two girls look so familiar. 1 think I’ve seen them somewhere before.” H 11

The comments popped non-stop in the live broadcast room and the number of viewers continued to climb.

The host was surprised. They were indeed in an era where looks mattered. Two beautiful girls danced and another 100,000 viewers flocked to his live broadcast room.

What the host didn’t know was that passersby had also taken videos and posted them on Weibo, which attracted more viewers.

“This is shot by the roadside with no photoshopping. Two beautiful dancers with vocals from the host. It’s really fated! Beautiful!”

“I’m suddenly angry when I see these fairies. I suddenly regret not studying hard because at such a stunning scene, I only have one word: beautiful, no, two words: f*cking beautiful!”

“Ahhhh, 1 want all the information on these two in the next three minutes!”

“The woman in the green dress is so cute! Dancing a classical dance on the street during Lantern Festival. How creative! Super Like!”

“They’ve done a great job in promoting traditional culture. I’m going to upload the video to the internet and let other countries experience our Lantern Festival. Not only do we have delicious glutinous rice balls, but we also have beautiful women!”

A few other bloggers reposted the video, and the number of Likes increased. It made the bottom of the list of trending searches and was even reposted on the official Weibo account of capital city..
