Chapter 500: Chapter 500 Concert
Sheng Tang gently patted her hand.
"If you don’t want to go, then don’t go," Sheng Tang said, "Why make it hard for yourself?"
"She complained to my aunt," Jiang Baocu seemed to choke up, "Said I wasn’t close to her, that my aunt incited it."
It’s hard for an official to judge family matters, Sheng Tang didn’t know the ins and outs of Jiang Baocu’s family, so she didn’t say anything.
The two of them went back to the classroom.
Jiang Baocu was not in high spirits, lying there in a daze.
The desk in front of them, Yan Jinzhi turned around and asked them, "This Saturday, Jiang Mingfei has a concert at the gymnasium. I bought four tickets four months ago, but my friends bailed on me. Do you two want to go?"
Jiang Baocu lifted her head.
Sheng Tang asked, "Who is Jiang Mingfei?"
Yan Jinzhi: "..."
Even Jiang Baocu looked at her in shock.
Yan Jinzhi was startled for a moment, then asked her in surprise, "Are you an alien? You actually don’t know Jiang Mingfei? Jiang Mingfei is barely over forty this year, not that old!"
Yan Jinzhi was eager to talk about her idol.
Jiang Mingfei debuted as a singer in his teens.
More than a decade ago, the music scene was thriving, establishing Jiang Mingfei’s status. He was extremely popular then, with fans all over the world.
Later, as the music scene declined and sifted through many people, Jiang Mingfei stood firm, and his concerts were still hard to get tickets for.
A couple of years ago, there was a very popular talent show, Jiang Mingfei was a judge, he became popular again, and even attracted a new batch of younger fans.
Yan Jinzhi fell for the handsome uncle watching the talent show.
As for Jiang Mingfei’s fame, almost everyone knows about it.
"Are you two going?" Yan Jinzhi asked again, "I bought VIP tickets."
Sheng Tang hesitated.
She wasn’t very interested in concerts.
Jiang Baocu, listless, couldn’t muster any enthusiasm.
"Come along?" Yan Jinzhi urged them, "The tickets are really hard to get. They sold out in a minute when they went online four months ago."
Yan Jinzhi had four tickets, so she also invited her desk mate.
Her desk mate chimed in, "Come on, we haven’t hung out alone before."
Jiang Baocu perked up.
"Alright," she said.
She agreed, thinking it would be good for Jiang Baocu to get some distraction while she was feeling down.
So Sheng Tang nodded, agreeing to go with Jiang Baocu.
Jiang Baocu was a very outgoing girl, she wouldn’t stay upset over something for long, and the next day she could laugh and joke as usual, mingling with classmates.
On Saturday, Sheng Tang slept until noon, and then Jiang Baocu’s car came to pick her up.
The two went to the mall, met up with Yan Jinzhi and the others, and went to lunch together.
After lunch, they strolled around the mall for a long time, bought a lot of stuff, and even watched a movie in the afternoon.
They had dinner around four and then headed to the gymnasium.
Sheng Tang thought they were quite early, but the entrance of the gymnasium was already crowded.
Jiang Mingfei was indeed very popular, his concert even invited two currently trending singers and a super popular singing group, so the fans were ecstatic.
Sheng Tang followed Yan Jinzhi and the others through the VIP entrance.
When they got there, the gymnasium was still empty and a bit desolate.
Yan Jinzhi made a phone call.
After hanging up, she was very excited and said to Sheng Tang and Jiang Baocu, "I pulled some strings with Jiang Mingfei’s agent. We can go backstage later! I finally get to see my idol in person!"
Sheng Tang smiled.
Jiang Baocu’s expression turned a bit strange.
