There was a five-minute intermission, and then Chu Qiao began performing again. 

She was still on the drum set, playing fast-paced disco music. She performed four disco songs in a row, and the audience went completely wild. 

Even the air seemed charged with excitement, everyone danced until they were drenched in sweat, yet felt no fatigue. As soon as the music started, they couldn’t help but move.

Then the slow dance music began, played from a cassette tape. 

Chu Qiao shook her hands. It had been tiring to play four straight sets. She went to see Xuan Hongxia and the others during the fifteen-minute break.

“How are you so wonderful, Xiao Chu? You resemble a movie star. I only saw you out of all the people on stage.”

Xuan Hongxia exclaimed excitedly, her face full of admiration. 

At first, she had felt that working in a dance hall wasn’t very respectable, but now all that remained was envy. If she had talent like Chu Qiao, she would definitely come to work here too and live a carefree, unrestrained life.

“It’s nothing, really. There are plenty of people at music academies who are much better than me.” Chu Qiao said, not out of modesty, but sincerely.

Students trained in music academies were the true artists. 

Someone like her, who was self-taught and only half-skilled, couldn’t compare at all, the gap was far too big.

“Xiao Chu, what are the requirements for getting into a music academy? Is it hard to learn the drums and keyboard like you do?” 

The women eagerly asked, all sharing the same thoughts as Xuan Hongxia, nothing but admiration and envy for Chu Qiao. 

They even began considering teaching their daughters this lesson so they might not only make good money but also lead simple, dignified lives rather than becoming like them—weary, unappreciative housewives.

“I can assist you in asking, but I’m not really sure either. They should be aware that the two young men who just performed are both graduates of music academies.” Relieved, Chu Qiao spoke.

Their viewpoints had already started to shift, which it seemed that the effect was quite positive.

“Xiao Chu, thank you. I would sell all I own to assist my kid if she were accepted into a music academy.”

“As long as she can get in, of course I’ll support her, she’ll definitely have a more respectable life than mine in the future.”

The women were filled with emotion. 

Deep down, they all shared the same wish, that their daughters wouldn’t have to live the same kind of life they had, but could instead live easily and with dignity, shining brightly like Chu Qiao.

“Talent is quite important for studying music, and it also requires a lot of investment,” Chu Qiao added with a slight grin. “There are age restrictions as well. It’s ideal to begin learning at a young age. However, it won’t be an issue if the talent is strong. Enrolling them in classes at the youth center is a good place to start, but getting into a music academy is still a long way off.”

“Yes, Director Gu just advised registering at the youth center as well. I’ll take my kid there to register tomorrow.”

Having decided to expose their kids to the arts, the women all nodded in agreement.

If they didn’t study music, kids may learn to paint and sketch, both of which could be profitable. Either way, it would be preferable to overworking oneself in a factory like they did.

Chu Qiao called a waitress over when she noticed that the fruit and sunflower seeds on the table were all gone.

“Bring each person a glass of champagne and another plate of fruit and sunflower seeds.” 

“No, no, it’s too costly.” Embarrassed, Xuan Hongxia and the others spoke.

They had already drunk one glass of alcohol, which cost ten yuan, and another would bring the total to twenty. It would total several hundred yuan with so many people.

“It’s okay, I got enough flower baskets today to treat you.” Chu Qiao grinned as she spoke.

“What are flower baskets?”

It was another new word. Like country people who had never been to a grand mansion before, the women thought everything was new and wanted to inquire about everything. 

They are customer tips. They will give me a flower basket worth five yuan each if I perform well on the drums. In essence, it’s a tip. I have enough to buy beverages for all of you today. Chu Qiao clarified.

She rushed back as the interval came to an end.

As Xuan Hongxia and the others saw her beautiful figure leave, their emotions were moved, mostly filled with jealousy.

They were already very jealous of the fifty-yuan pay. They weren’t prepared for Chu Qiao to get tips as well, and it seemed like she made even more than fifty yuan.
