She is a heartthrob who wants to live a good life

Chapter 466 The Greedy Little Country Girl 46

Pei Jingche rushed home exhausted. Only Grandma Pei was watching TV at home. She was quite surprised to see him come in: "Jingche, you are on vacation? Why didn't you tell us?"

"Today is Cang Cang's birthday. I happened to be here to carry out a mission, so I took advantage of the shift change tonight to write a note and come back."

The weather in November was already a little chilly. Pei Jingche, wearing a military uniform, put the cake in his hand on the table: "Is Cang Cang over there?"

He thought Cang Cang would celebrate his birthday at home today, so he came back directly.

Grandma Pei continued watching TV: "Cang Cang and her classmates have made an appointment to go to the dance hall. This girl has made a lot of good friends at school and said she wants to hold a birthday party."

Birthday party?

Pei Jingche didn't think much about it. Making friends is a good thing: "Which dance hall did they go to?"

"It seems to be called something like Kerry Dance Hall," Grandma Pei thought for a moment, "It was newly opened by a wealthy businessman in Hong Kong."

Although Pei Jingche had not been in the capital for a long time, he still knew a thing or two about what was going on here. He frowned and said, "Hasn't the factory been agreed upon? Why did you open a dance hall?"

He and Cheng Qinji thought of the same thing: "There won't be any messy people in a dance hall run by people from Gangcheng. It's almost evening now. Grandma, why don't you stop Cang Cang?"

Grandma Pei glanced at him and said, "Even if he is a foreigner, he has to follow the rules of Beijing when opening a dance hall in Beijing. Besides, he is not a foreigner. How dare he do anything illegal here?"

"Don't be so alarmed. Qin Ji and Yan Feng took Cang Cang away together just now. With them here, and a group of classmates accompanying them, nothing can go wrong."

Grandma Pei was still nagging: "You are five years older than Cang Cang, why do you act like an old man? Even people my age wouldn't spoil the fun. What's wrong with going to the dance hall to have some fun..."

Before she could finish her words, Pei Jingche turned around with the cake in his hand and ran out the door.

"Cang Cang, can you dance with me?"

Shen Weicang had just finished dancing on the dance floor when Li Gongyu handed a rose to Shen Weicang.

Cheng Qinji snatched the flowers and threw them away: "Cang Cang is tired. Didn't you see that she just finished dancing? Don't you have the eyes to see that she needs a rest?"

There was loud music in the dance hall, and colorful lights were shining back and forth, casting colorful lights on Shen Weicang's face.

It was her first time attending such an occasion. As soon as she entered, she was attracted by the rhythmic music and the young men and women on the dance floor.

Li Gongyu originally planned to clear the place and only receive Shen Weicang and her classmates today, but she felt that the purpose of coming to the dance hall was to have fun, so she stopped him.

Just now, Shen Weicang danced a disco with the girls in her class. She actually didn't know how to dance at all, but she saw others dancing and it seemed very easy, so she confidently pulled them into the dance floor.

Unexpectedly, the disco moves were not something that could be danced randomly. The song just now was a bit complicated. Shen Weicang watched others do it and followed suit, waving her arms and twisting her body from time to time. She was sweating from exhaustion in a short while.

Although she didn't dance very well, she was very happy: "Qin Ji, so this is disco, it's really interesting."

Zhu Yanfeng raised his hand with a handkerchief and carefully wiped her sweat: "You must be tired, come and drink some water."

Li Gongyu also came over and sat down on the sofa: "Cangcang, if you want to dance, come here anytime, I can teach you."

In the restaurant downstairs, Xu Jingxiang was counting the bills when she suddenly heard Cheng Hexi's voice: "Hey, how much did you earn today?"

Xu Jingxiang paused with her hand holding the pen, and looked up to see Xu Jingxiang leaning against the counter looking at her with a somewhat nonchalant expression.

"Ms. Cheng?" She put down her pen. "Why are you here?"

This restaurant and dance hall are both owned by Li Gongyu. The first floor is the restaurant and the second floor is the dance hall. Just now when Li Gongyu led a group of people upstairs, Xu Jingxiang saw Shen Weicang from afar.

She was wearing a loose black sweater and slim jeans today, with her long hair loose and a bright headband on. Although her outfit was simple, she looked very different from before.

A few days ago, Xu Jingxiang had only vaguely guessed why Li Gongyu wanted to get close to Shen Weicang, but now she was certain that Li Gongyu liked Shen Weicang and wanted to pursue her.

After working in that private restaurant for more than a month, Xu Jingxiang had suffered enough. She finally caught the opportunity from Li Gongyu and agreed without giving it much thought.

Having fought with Cheng Hexi for so many years in her previous life, she came to know this woman well. She knew that she worked in a newspaper and went to the library to read every week.

Xu Jingxiang took some effort and naturally started a conversation with Cheng Hexi, and found out from her which school Shen Weicang attended.

Cheng Hexi turned around and found a table to sit down: "I came to patronize your business. Isn't it okay to give you money?"

Hearing the intimacy in her words, Xu Jingxiang felt complicated.

In her memory, Cheng Hexi looked down on country people, so why was he so sincere to her now?

She seemed to understand in a trance that Cheng Hexi didn't hate the country people, nor did she look down on the country people. She just hated the people who married Pei Jingche.

In the previous life, this person was myself, so Cheng Hexi hated myself. Now this person has become Shen Weicang, so Cheng Hexi hates Shen Weicang.

Xu Jingxiang and Cheng Hexi have known each other for a month or two. Cheng Hexi treats her as a friend and likes to complain about everything.

From her, Xu Jingxiang learned a lot about Pei Jingche, and she still couldn't believe it.

Pei Jingche actually quarreled with Cheng Hexi for Shen Weicang and did not give her any face at all. Even when Shen Weicang beat Cheng Hexi at Cheng's house, Pei Jingche still protected her.

Xu Jingxiang followed Cheng Hexi to the table: "Of course you are welcome, what would you like to eat?"

This restaurant serves fast food. Cheng Hexi ordered a few dishes at random: "That's all. I don't have much appetite."

Xu Jingxiang wrote it down and just as she turned around, Pei Jingche pushed the door open and walked in, heading straight towards the stairs.

"Pei Jingche?"

Cheng Hexi noticed him with sharp eyes, "Why are you here?"

Pei Jingche was still holding a cake in his hand. He took off his coat while in the car. Now he was only wearing the lining inside, which was not as eye-catching as the military coat.

Hearing Cheng Hexi's voice, he frowned: "I'm here to take Cang Cang home."

Seeing his expression, Cheng Hexi had a heart attack: "What's that expression on your face? You don't think I'm bullying your girlfriend again, do you?"

Pei Jingche glanced at her coldly: "Didn't you often bully Cang Cang before I left? Shouldn't I be worried?"

Cheng Hexi wanted to vomit blood. Apart from a few provocative words she said that night at Cheng's house, when had she ever bullied Shen Weicang? She was even slapped in the face by Shen Weicang just for those few words that day.

"Why did you ask Shen Weicang to come here?" She thought for a moment and looked upstairs. "Did she go to the dance hall?"

"It has nothing to do with you."

Pei Jingche said this coldly and went straight upstairs.
