Ning Jinchuan looked at Tang Baozhu with scrutiny, the corners of his lips raised playfully.

"I heard that there is a big show at the Paramount today. Someone swore that the finale dance would astound the whole city, so I came here to take a look. I didn't expect to hear Miss Tang's confession."

Tang Baozhu was stunned and stood there. After a long while, she smiled awkwardly in a mechanical way.

"I'm sorry, I didn't speak so tactfully, I'm offended!"

Ever since Ning Jinchuan spoke out last night, Tang Baozhu always felt uncomfortable when she was with Ning Jinchuan, especially since Qin Ruorong said that Ning Jinchuan had had feelings for her in Suhe Town.

She felt even more uncomfortable.

Qin Ruorong had already walked over with a sweet smile on her face, and glanced at the two of them playfully. Many people in the backstage heard the noise and came over.

Qin Ruorong patted Ning Jinchuan's shoulder with a sweet smile, and subconsciously wanted to lean towards Ning Jinchuan.

"Mr. Ning actually came to Paramount tonight. It seems that he came to support me. To express his gratitude, I will definitely live up to Mr. Ning's expectations tonight."

When Tang Baozhu heard Qin Ruorong's coquettish voice, she got goosebumps. It must be said that Qin Ruorong was a good actor.

Ning Jinchuan frowned and slightly moved aside, avoiding Qin Ruorong's advances.

"What's going on? If I have caused Miss Qin to misunderstand me in any way, I would like to apologize. If Miss Qin still wants me to act with her..."

Before Ning Jinchuan could finish his words, Qin Ruorong bumped into Tang Baozhu and gave her a look.

Tang Baozhu immediately understood and threw herself into Ning Jinchuan's arms, hugging him around the waist and interrupting him.

"Qin Ruorong, are you too narcissistic? Mr. Ning obviously came here to see me. Put away your thoughts. Even if your dance is enchanting, Mr. Ning will not be moved."

Qin Ruorong sneered.

"Really? Are you the worm in Mr. Ning's stomach? How do you know that Mr. Ning won't be tempted? Mr. Ning took good care of me some time ago. In the whole city of Shanghai, everyone knows that Mr. Ning is protecting me."

"That's because Mr. Ning took extra care of you for my sake. I didn't expect you to turn against me. If you don't believe me, ask Mr. Ning?"

Qin Ruorong had tears in her eyes and looked at Ning Jinchuan guiltily, trying to create an affectionate look.

Ning Jinchuan's temples were throbbing. It was said that three women made a play, and these two could make her suffer. She knew that Tang Baozhu was acting to cooperate with Qin Ruorong.

But Ning Jinchuan was very unhappy. He cared about Tang Baozhu, but he was inexplicably involved with her best friend. Seeing that Tang Baozhu threw herself at him, he still endured it.

Tang Baozhu was still in his arms, wrapped in her soft embrace. He stretched out his hands to hold Tang Baozhu's waist, and his nose was filled with Tang Baozhu's unique scent.

"Well, what Tang Baozhu said is right."

Ning Jinchuan's light words made Qin Ruorong not know how to respond. Is this still Ning Jinchuan?

Mr. Ning from Hucheng would actually say such doting words and look at Tang Baozhu with stars in his eyes. It was simply enviable.

Everyone watching around knew very well that it was not a rumor before. The second Miss Tang from Suhe Town was Mr. Ning's sweetheart.

Tang Baozhu moved and looked at Ning Jinchuan in surprise. Her stunned look was reflected in his brown pupils. Ning Jinchuan's heart and eyes were filled with her.

This behavior of ignoring the looks and speculations of people around him was a bit too much for Tang Baozhu to handle.

She wanted to sneak away, but Ning Jinchuan grabbed her wrist with his right hand and pressed her into his arms again. His neatly-shaped jaw rested against the top of her head.

"I've already said this, and you just want to run away?"

Tang Baozhu's throat was extremely dry and her heart skipped a beat. Ning Jinchuan was actually trying to climb up the ladder. This was obviously a plan to turn the fake into real.

"Well, why don't we go to the dance hall? Staying here will delay others from changing their clothes. Watching the performance is more important."

Ning Jinchuan then let go of his hand.

"Okay, it's all up to you."

After saying that, Ning Jinchuan naturally grabbed Tang Baozhu's wrist and walked towards the dance hall.

Qin Ruorong blinked and stomped her feet under the mocking eyes of everyone.

"Woo woo, Mr. Ning, my love for you will never change. If you regret it, you can always come to me. The finale dance tonight is prepared for you. The rose will always bloom for you."

Tang Baozhu staggered and her eyelids twitched violently. This Qin Ruorong was addicted to acting.

Ning Jinchuan did not stop, and tightened his grip on Tang Baozhu's wrist, saying in a low voice with a fake smile,

"You two sisters acted well. You treated me as one of your parts?"

Tang Baozhu knew that Ning Jinchuan hated being used as a tool, so she waved her hands.

"It's not intentional to involve you. It's just that Niijima Zuoji's goal is too obvious. He's targeting you, so we have to act with you as the center."

"Oh, he is indeed sinister, but unfortunately he is using the wrong brain. He is using you as a pawn. Perhaps I can be fooled and learn from your mistakes."

"Mr. Ning, are you...confiding your true feelings to me?"

"What do you think?"

Tang Baozhu looked up. Ning Jinchuan's eyes were burning. She abruptly withdrew her gaze, her eyelashes trembling slightly.

"Mr. Ning, if I use your kindness to bully others and create momentum, will you be angry and stay away from me?"

Ning Jinchuan chuckled, his expression unchanged.

"That is my honor. After all, it proves my worth. I am also very pleased. If you know how to recognize the trend, follow the trend, take advantage of the trend and create the trend, you can go smoothly and achieve twice the result with half the effort."

Tang Baozhu was stunned. She didn't expect that someone could be so openly used by others.

"Silly boy, we've been together for so long, how could I not know your little thoughts? If you want to succeed, of course you'll rack your brains, so I can only accompany you."

Tang Baozhu then grinned.

"Mr. Ning, I suddenly think you're pretty good."

"Just suddenly felt that?"

"No, the first time I saw you, I knew you were pretty good."

"Okay, you've been preparing for the past two days. I'm sure you're ready for the opening tomorrow?"

"Half and half,"

"Do you need me to help you build momentum?"

Tang Baozhu's eyes lit up.

"You have helped me build up momentum during this period. Everyone in Shanghai knows that I am Mr. Ning's sweetheart. With this gimmick, tomorrow's opening will definitely be a big hit."

The reason why Tang Baozhu did not refute the rumors and accepted the outside gossip calmly was also for this gimmick. In the future, no matter whether they were trying to curry favor with Ning Jinchuan or targeting Ning Jinchuan, they would all hang around her shop, so she would have no worries about doing business.

The only variable was Ning Jinchuan. I didn't expect him to be serious.

Tang Baozhu was very conflicted. She was indeed a little tempted. After all, such an outstanding person was in front of her. He had power, wealth and status. Anyone would be tempted.

But in her dictionary, feelings are dispensable. After all, there are too many things involved, and interests now dominate.
