Accidentally Married to the Big Shot-Chapter 298 - : Dance Battle
Chapter 298 -298: Dance Battle
Su Meixi told Qiu Shuai to continue with his business, then she and Wang Bing picked a table to sit down at, ordered some snacks to fill their stomachs, and began to study what kind of drink to order.
Neither of them knew much about alcohol—Ye Ge, Baileys, Cointreau, Ma Li Bao; there were so many kinds.
Without fearing mockery, Su Meixi started searching on Baidu with her phone to see which one suited her best. The spicy ones were a no-go, and the strong ones were out of the question, too. She preferred something sweet, ideally the kind that would leave her slightly buzzed.
Wang Bing’s mood was initially down, but upon arriving here and out of curiosity, she managed to forget about her husband’s issues.
The two sipped their drinks while looking around.
Qiu Shuai came over from time to time to ask if they needed anything else and to send over some more snacks.
After 8 PM, the place began to fill up. The band came over to tune their instruments, and the lead singer was a young man with long hair dressed in punk style, his voice sounded a bit like Chen Chusheng. As soon as he started singing, the atmosphere of the bar enlivened, and he kicked off with an international hit.
There were three other musicians behind him, one woman and two men. The girl was a bass player dressed in a tank top and shorts, her arms and thighs covered with tattoos, looking quite alternative. Her eyes and gestures seemed to say, “Don’t mess with me; I do what I want.”
Su Meixi and Wang Bing didn’t often come across such people and couldn’t help but stare in astonishment.
Qiu Shuai saw this, and when the band finished the first few songs and it was time for a DJ to take over, Qiu Shuai introduced the band’s four members to Su Meixi and Wang Bing.

“Let me introduce you all. This is Sister Xi and this is Sister Bing. They’re like sisters to me now.”
The band’s lead singer, Ah Sun, looked cool on stage but was gentle offstage. He shook hands with Su Meixi and Wang Bing.
The others greeted them perfunctorily and then went backstage to rest.
Su Meixi asked Qiu Shuai, “How much do they charge for a performance?”
“They’re singing 15 songs tonight, for a total of twenty thousand, split four ways.”
Wang Bing said, “That’s not bad, five thousand each. That’s better than many working jobs.”
“It’s true, singing is a profession that depends on talent and strength; without it, you can’t make it in this business.”
Qiu Shuai added, “Later, I’ll push your WeChat info to them so they can add you.”
Su Meixi didn’t mind much; to her, it made no difference if they added her or not. But Wang Bing decided to add them.
When a woman decides to step out of her marriage, she starts making a lot of friends.
The bar grew even busier, and by 10 PM, it was packed. There was even dancing underway. Su Meixi noticed that the bar patrons weren’t all dressed seductively; many were office workers like them, who came to sit around and have a drink after work, some even in their work uniforms.
Qiu Shuai continually urged Su Meixi and Wang Bing to go dance, claiming it didn’t matter if they couldn’t, they should just go down and shake it a bit.
Su Meixi and Wang Bing reluctantly headed for the dance floor and started off stiff. But as the music intensified, they loosened up, moving more freely and feeling quite liberated.
In the midst of dancing, Wang Bing accidentally stepped on someone behind her—a young man in his twenties with dyed yellow, curly hair.
Curly Hair, having been stepped on, couldn’t help but shove Wang Bing and snapped, “Auntie, if you can’t dance, don’t flail around.”
Wang Bing had just started to get in the groove, and being scolded by this young man made her immediately feel ashamed.
Indeed, she thought, I’m already of age and don’t know how to dance, so what am I doing here fooling around?
She couldn’t help but pull Su Meixi away, “Let’s just go back to drinking.”
Su Meixi couldn’t stand to see a friend bullied and retorted as she clung to Wang Bing, “Who said you have to dance to come here? Isn’t he just flailing around too?”
Curly Hair, hearing Su Meixi’s words, couldn’t help but curse, “Who are you calling a dance-challenged? You two aunties!”
In his view, anyone dressed too conservatively was an “auntie”. He had been trying to approach the more scantily clad girls all along.
“Never mind him, Wang Bing. Let’s just dance,” Su Meixi said.
Wang Bing was too embarrassed to dance anymore, but seeing Su Meixi’s confidence, she lost her inhibitions and continued to dance.
But Curly Hair already bore a grudge against them and deliberately bumped into them as he danced.
Su Meixi shielded Wang Bing as much as she could to avoid Curly Hair, but there was a moment when Curly Hair harshly stepped on her foot.
Su Meixi was instantly enraged and grabbed Curly Hair by the collar, “Step on me one more time, I dare you!”
Curly Hair, full of pent-up anger, unexpectedly pushed Wang Bing, who then bumped into someone else, who in turn bumped into a girl.
Suddenly the area erupted into chaos, “What’s going on here? Can’t you dance properly without stepping on other people’s feet?”
It wasn’t long before they realized that the center of the conflict was Su Meixi, Wang Bing, and Curly Hair.
Zhao Gongji and his crew had been given instructions early on to protect Su Meixi and Wang Bing, so as soon as they saw the commotion, they rushed over.
Zhao Gongji stepped in between them, asking Curly Hair, “Brother, what’s going on?”
Curly Hair pointed at Su Meixi and Wang Bing, “These two aunties can’t dance and just had to come in here and make a mess; stepped on my foot and are still not satisfied.”
Zhao Gongji was about to mediate when someone came over and asked indifferently, “So, you can dance?”
It was Ah Sun.
Curly Hair said, “Of course I can dance, otherwise why would I come to your crappy bar? Are you the band’s lead singer? Can you dance well?”
“How about we have a dance-off?”
Curly Hair sneered at Ah Sun, “Let’s do it, I’m not afraid of a lousy singer like you.”
Seeing that there was going to be a dance battle, the crowd naturally made room for them, forming a circle to watch.
Su Meixi and Wang Bing watched too. It was their first time seeing a dance-off.
Juan Wang started dancing first and after a while began rolling on the floor. Then he mockingly flipped the middle finger at Ah Sun, as if to say, “Your turn.”
Ah Sun just gave a cold laugh and decisively started dancing.
After dancing for a while, Ah Sun spun on his head.
The crowd erupted with applause and cheers.
Wang Bing tightly held Su Meixi’s hand. To Wang Bing, Ah Sun was stepping up for them.
