Shang Wenqi frowned slightly when he heard this.

Ning Ning saw through his difficulties and spread her hands indifferently: "I was just kidding, just do your thing and don't worry about me. Furong Garden is heavily guarded and ordinary people can't get in. Besides, I will basically stay with the dancers these days, so nothing will happen.

Besides, you can protect me for a while, but can you protect me forever? I still have to walk on my own.

If you are really worried, have your people patrol this area more. If there is any problem, I will definitely call for help."

Shang Wenqi just looked at her quietly, not knowing what he was thinking, with a very solemn expression.

Ning Ning couldn't help but patted his shoulder when she saw this: "Alright, leave quickly to avoid ruining my plan. I will definitely win the first place in tomorrow's competition, so don't get in the way."

After saying that, Ning Ning lifted up her skirt and prepared to go back to practice "Flying".

It was the first time that Shang Wenqi was disliked for being a nuisance. He curled his lips, not knowing what to say. In the end, he could only hide in the dark and watch Ning Ning.

At that time, the class owner happened to come over. When he saw Shang Wenqi, he thought it was the class owner of some other courtyard who came here to peep. Just when he was about to chase him away, Shang Wenqi discovered him the next second.

It was Shang Wenqi who turned around and the class owner realized it was Shang Wenqi. "Hey, Mr. Chu, why don't you move over here?"

He heard the announcement that Mr. Chu was coming, so he came to say hello. He thought he would see Mr. Chu and Mrs. Chu together. After all, the young couple had a good relationship and they stayed together all the way to the capital.

As a result, now he just looked at Mrs. Chu in the dark and did not come forward.

Is it...

The troupe owner glanced sideways and began to think about the drama in which Mr. Chu met his former lover in the capital, and then Mrs. Chu returned to the dance troupe in anger...

After all, although Madam Chu said that her husband was busy with other things outside, it made no sense for them to separate based on how they were getting along. Plus, at this moment, Mr. Chu was just hiding here and watching Madam Chu from afar...

I think his guess is pretty close to the truth, right?

?

Shang Wenqi looked at the absent-minded class owner with doubt: "Class owner?"

"Uh..." The class leader suddenly came back to his senses and looked at Shang Wenqi with a cryptic expression: "Mr. Chu, although we men are the heads of the family, we can't always be strong. We should show weakness to women occasionally, buy her something she likes to coax her, so that no matter how bad her temper is, it will be coaxed away."

???

Shang Wenqi was even more confused.

The class owner looked like an experienced person: "You and Chuchu had a fight, right? Although I haven't married yet, I still have a few female confidants. I know women's minds. You and Chuchu must have had a fight, right? I have guessed it, don't try to hide it from me.

As husband and wife, friction is inevitable, but the women of you Daliang people are very good, the most virtuous I have ever seen. In our Western Regions, you will never find women who are so humble and respect their husbands.

If they are unhappy, they can still teach their husbands a lesson or even kick them out of the house."

"..."Shang Wenqi.

"Mrs. Chu is already very good. Don't lose such a good wife."

Listening to the class owner's earnest nagging, Shang Wenqi finally relaxed his expression, and the corners of his mouth slightly curved upwards.

"I understand, but please take good care of her in the next few days. I will take her back in two days."

"Well, don't worry, you can stay as long as you want. I will take good care of her. I'm not saying this to drive you away. I'm just worried that you two will have a conflict. You two are such a perfect match, so don't let any cracks appear. You know, a broken mirror cannot be mended."

"I understand." Shang Wenqi looked at him meaningfully and stayed here for a while before leaving.

It’s not that he doesn’t want to stay here, but now that he knows Ning Ning’s plan, he has to go back to make some arrangements.

Soon Shang Wenqi left here.

Looking at Mr. Chu who was in a hurry to come and go, the class owner was a little confused.

However, the performance was imminent, so he could only put these trivial matters aside for the time being and go back to watch the performance.

……

In a blink of an eye, the next day arrived and the ring competition was about to begin.

Ning Ning originally thought that this was an internal competition, but unexpectedly the stage was set up in the front yard and the auditorium was open to the public.

Ning Ning was very surprised by this, and the class owner couldn't help but share with Ning Ning what he had learned in the past few days.

"This is why Furong Garden is the best in Kyoto. Although you need an invitation ticket to enter Furong Garden, whenever there is a large-scale competition, Furong Garden is open to the public for free. People count on being able to feast their eyes during the competition."

Competitions are different from performances. Performances focus on the audience's perception, and everything from the light beams, stage design to the viewing effect is extremely exquisite.

Competitions are different. Generally, they are held during the day to allow the judges to see the movements and choreography more clearly.

Moreover, all 30 teams from Furong Garden will participate in the competition, not to mention the teams from outside. One dance takes about a cup of tea, which is 10-15 minutes.

Assuming there are 60 teams participating, it will take 600 minutes, not counting the time spent on going on and off the stage to prepare props. Overall, it takes a very long time.

It was very stressful for both the competing dance troupes and the judges who were scoring the performances.

Therefore, distinguished persons are generally not invited to watch such events.

However, unlike the nobles, the common people are very interested in such events. Not to mention one day, they would be able to watch for three days without moving, holding their straw cakes.

Therefore, the owner of Furong Garden simply made a decision and opened Furong Garden to the public whenever there was a boxing match so that interested people could come and watch.

As the saying goes, you can only gain if you give. The owner of Furong Garden was so generous in giving that he won the respect of the people. In the eyes of the people, Furong Garden directly jumped to the number one in Kyoto.

Although a martial arts competition had just been held during the Flower Festival not long ago, everyone thought they would have to wait until the Mid-Autumn Festival to see the next martial arts competition. Unexpectedly, they were so lucky as to coincide with the birthday of the Empress Dowager's great-aunt.

At this time, the two most honorable women in the world were the Empress Dowager and the Imperial Concubine Dowager. Shouldn't the birthdays of their maternal elders be celebrated well?

Everyone is happy to see this happen. Of course, the most important thing is to be able to watch the boxing match. How exciting!

Although it is still different from a formal performance, most of the dances here cannot be seen even if you pay. Now that you can watch it for free, why bother?

Just like that, amid everyone's anticipation, the ring match finally began.

A total of 79 teams signed up this time, including all 30 dance troupes from Furong Garden. In addition, there were some dance studios outside. These dance studios were quite large and had attracted many dancers, so they put together dozens of programs at once.
