It was a pity that his face had undergone cosmetic surgery, and there were still differences from before.
He no longer resembled Tang Xu.
"It's nothing."
She looked down and ordered five dishes, just enough for two people.
While waiting for the food, a faint voice sounded.
"Tang Ye, I heard from Jenny that you refused her offer to be your backup dancer, but insisted on choosing your sister."
It was Sheng Mo again, he seemed to be lingering like a ghost, appearing everywhere she went.
Tang Ye was not to be outdone.
"Jenny said that she was the one who approached the company and volunteered to be my backup dancer. I actually refused Jenny because I considered your feelings."
With that single sentence, Tang Ye fiercely retaliated against Sheng Mo, and Sheng Mo's face immediately fell.
Jenny was a professional dancer, and she was also voluptuous and extremely beautiful. With her accompanying dance, the stage effect would be explosive.
Jenny's presumptuous actions had already made Sheng Mo feel betrayed.
But Tang Ye didn't appreciate it, it was as if something he cherished was completely disregarded by Tang Ye.
"Heh heh..."
Sheng Mo suddenly laughed, a feminine smile that sent shivers down one's spine.
"Tang Ye, you don't need to be so confrontational with me, it's meaningless."
"However, I must say, I admire you. For such an important concert to you, you actually asked your sister for help. It seems you're prepared to leave the entertainment industry."
Tang Ye retorted mercilessly.
"That's not something you should be worried about. You should worry more about yourself. After all, you haven't had a single representative work that you can be proud of since your debut."
"Fans probably only remember your name and appearance when they think of you, and nothing else."
His sore spot had been hit, and Sheng Mo's expression became extremely unpleasant.
"I'm only twenty-one years old. With so many resources from the company, am I afraid of not having my own representative work?"
"On the other hand, you need to perform well, and don't get shelved by the company."
Sheng Mo left.
Tang Ye merely sneered, not bothering to argue with him.
Tang Ye's composure today truly surprised Tang Xiaomin.
"He said that to you, and you could tolerate it?"
Tang Ye shrugged indifferently.
"A sudden nouveau riche, it's inevitable that they become arrogant. The higher they stand, the harder they fall. I've seen many young and impetuous newcomers like him, and none of them had a good ending."
The entertainment industry, the more glamorous it appears on the surface, the more brutal it is within.
"It seems you haven't been wasting your time all these years," Tang Xiaomin said.
When Tang Ye was in front of her, he was always playful, like an idiot.
Only after experiencing his work state today did Tang Xiaomin suddenly realize that Tang Ye's past success in the entertainment industry wasn't solely due to the Tang family.
"A true hero doesn't boast of past glories. Xiaomin, I'm counting on you this time."
Tang Xiaomin gave Tang Ye a helpless look.
"Are you sure you want to promote it like this? If it backfires, you'll really be finished."
A look of determination appeared on Tang Ye's face.
"As long as I can get on the trending searches, anything is fine."
At this point, Tang Xiaomin no longer tried to persuade him.
Back then, it was she who had forced Tang Ye out of the entertainment industry.
Now, in order to help Tang Ye re-enter the entertainment industry, she had to personally get involved, write songs for him, and accompany him to perform at the concert.
She couldn't help but sigh that life was unpredictable.
...
In the restaurant parking lot, Tang Xiaomin walked to her parking spot and was surprised to find Jenny there.
It seemed she had been waiting for a long time.
Tang Xiaomin said, "Tang Ye is still upstairs paying the bill. If you're looking for him, you can go up."
"No, I'm here for you," Jenny said.
"Oh?"
Tang Xiaomin looked at her in surprise.
"Looking for me? What for?"
Jenny said in a persuasive tone.
"Tang Xiaomin, I know you can write songs, but I still have to tell you that dancing and songwriting are completely different. Dancing relies on skill and the stage effect presented."
"A good dance can ignite the atmosphere of a concert to its climax."
Tang Xiaomin understood immediately. So, Tang Ye had refused Jenny's help, and Jenny wasn't giving up.
"If you have something to say, just say it directly."
This time, Jenny was very serious, speaking word by word.
"Tang Xiaomin, for Tang Ye's future, you should refuse to help him. And you should also know yourself that you not only can't help him, but you will also harm him."
...
Being denied so outright, Tang Xiaomin felt very uncomfortable.
She scanned her surroundings. Good, there was no one else.
"I understand. You think I can't dance and will only drag Tang Ye down on stage, right?"
Jenny retorted.
"Isn't it?"
...
Tang Xiaomin only felt one emotion.
This was truly wonderful. Jenny dared to compare her dancing skills with her.
Tang Xiaomin took out her phone and played a very rhythmic dance track.
"I heard from Tang Ye that you are a professional dancer, specializing in jazz dance. How about this, let's have a battle."
"What?"
Jenny thought she was hallucinating, and stared blankly at Tang Xiaomin for seven or eight seconds.
A faint smile curved Tang Xiaomin's lips.
"You heard correctly, a battle. I'll start."
"You..."
Jenny was speechless at Tang Xiaomin's audacity. She was the runner-up in the previous jazz dance competition.
The first place winner had only narrowly defeated her because she was injured at the time.
She was known in the industry as a genius dancer. When hosts introduced her, they liked to use one sentence to describe her: She has never lost a battle. Sudan Novel Network
This Tang Xiaomin, not knowing the immensity of heaven and earth, actually dared to battle her.
Indeed, ignorance breeds fearlessness.
"Tang Xiaomin, I'm starting to admire your courage. If you lose, don't tell Tang Ye that I bullied you."
"Heh... winning or losing isn't important, mainly I want to experience the skill of a genius."
After saying that, Tang Xiaomin began to dance to the rhythm of the music.
She was dancing a girl's dance that Tang Ye had just taught her.
It was a sweet and cute style, like a spoiled, sweet, and adorable girl, completely harmless.
This kind of beginner-level dance was similar to the hip-swaying of online streamers, with no threshold.
Tang Xiaomin finished dancing. At the end, she made a heart-throwing gesture towards Jenny, indicating it was her turn.
...
This dance truly opened Jenny's eyes.
Tang Xiaomin danced surprisingly well, her movements and expressions were all in place. She danced even better than most of the girl group members she had taught.
To be fair, she had to praise Tang Xiaomin.
"I didn't expect you to be quite good. With your conditions, you could join a girl group and debut."
"However, with this much skill, you're still far from comparing to me."
"Tang Xiaomin, if you lose, you should refuse Tang Ye yourself. Don't drag him down anymore, okay?"
Tang Xiaomin readily agreed.
"As long as you win, anything can be discussed."
