Chapter 37: Singing and Dancing

As soon as they heard about singing, everyone's mood instantly brightened. Wang Jian was the singing prince of the school band and hadn't had the chance to sing since graduation. So, Zhao Dongbo led everyone to the nearby Great Dynasty KTV and booked a large private room.

Entering the room, with so many people wanting to sing, the opportunity to sing first was still given to those of higher status. Among them, Han Yuting and Wang Jian had the highest status, so Zhao Dongbo handed the microphone to Wang Jian.

Wang Jian waved his hand and smiled, "Ladies first!"

Han Yuting smiled slightly, stepped forward, and took the microphone, saying to Zhao Dongbo, "Give another microphone to Township Chief Wang!"

She wanted to sing a duet with Wang Jian. Seeing this, Zhao Dongbo immediately called out, "Why don't you two sing 'The Love of the Boatmen'?"

Zhao Yanyan, sitting on the side, felt uneasy. It seemed that Han Yuting was going to take the initiative. This woman was very bold, and she couldn't compare, so she could only wait for an opportunity. She believed that Wang Jian wouldn't really fall for Han Yuting.

Ning Xingong was unhappy that Wang Jian was so popular among everyone. If he had been the township chief, he would be the main character now. But reality was like this; whoever acted first would be the one to enjoy the limelight and receive the flowers from all sides.

Taking the microphone from Zhao Dongbo, Wang Jian reluctantly stood up. He was a bit worried. Han Yuting's bold and fiery style was something he couldn't accept right away. They had just met, and she was already actively interacting with him, regardless of others' gazes. If this got out, what would Liu Qingshan think?

"Come on, Township Chief Wang, why are you still hesitating? Let's sing 'Heavenly Match'!" Han Yuting smiled and waved her hand. Instead of singing 'The Love of the Boatmen,' she wanted to sing 'Heavenly Match.'

"Haha!" Wang Jian couldn't help but laugh in his heart. This Han Yuting was deliberately teasing him!

"Great! Secretary Han's 'Heavenly Match' is the best!" Zhao Dongbo, not expecting Han Yuting to sing this song, laughed heartily. The others also clapped when they heard.

There was no way to back out now. If Wang Jian showed more reluctance and shyness, others would think he had something to hide. It would be better to sing confidently, making others believe they were just putting on a show for fun.

"Alright, I'll sing 'Heavenly Match' with Secretary Han. If we sing badly, please forgive us!" Wang Jian walked from the sofa to the TV screen and stood next to Han Yuting. Han Yuting gave him a glance, but Wang Jian didn't dare to receive it and looked directly at the TV screen.

The melodious music started, and as soon as Han Yuting's voice rang out, everyone was stunned. No wonder she wanted to sing first; she had a special talent. Wang Jian couldn't help but look at her with new eyes.

Han Yuting sang the first line, and Wang Jian followed with the second. Although he hadn't sung for a long time, his magnetic and charming male voice immediately won applause from the female colleagues. Han Yuting hadn't expected Wang Jian to sing so well, thinking she would be the best, but it turned out there was someone even better.

Wang Jian's singing became more and more captivating, and he became more and more engrossed. He hadn't felt this way about singing for a long time. After starting work, the pressure was high, and he didn't have friends to sing with. Now, he felt he had found that feeling again!

Han Yuting was so engrossed that she forgot her turn to sing. Wang Jian had to nudge her, and she then realized and continued. Zhao Yanyan, sitting on the sofa, stared at Wang Jian. She was also completely absorbed, thinking how talented Wang Jian was!

"Great!" When the song ended, everyone cheered. Wang Jian put down the microphone, waved to everyone, and smiled as he walked back to the sofa.

"Township Chief Wang, sing another one!" Zhao Dongbo, unwilling to let him go, pulled Wang Jian.

Wang Jian smiled, "No, give everyone else a chance to sing!"

"We all want to hear you sing!" Zhao Dongbo looked at everyone and said.

At this moment, Han Yuting walked over and said, "We have many people here. I think we shouldn't let Township Chief Wang sing anymore. I'll dance with Township Chief Wang! Everyone who's free can dance too!"

Not expecting Han Yuting to come up with this idea, Zhao Yanyan saw that Wang Jian wasn't going to sing and wanted to go sing with him. Now it seemed that Han Yuting had taken the lead again.

"Dancing? Great! No one should just stand around." Zhao Dongbo approved of the suggestion.

Han Yuting extended her hands and said, "Come on, Township Chief Wang!"

Just about to sit back on the sofa, seeing Han Yuting's invitation, Wang Jian couldn't be shy anymore and walked over with a smile.

"Secretary Han, I'm not a very good dancer. If I step on your feet, don't blame me!" He joked as he held her waist.

"Hehe, Township Chief Wang, aren't you afraid I'll step on your toes?" Han Yuting laughed back.

Looking at Han Yuting's slightly sweaty nose, Wang Jian felt her heartbeat quicken. Lowering his head, he could see her white, smooth chest. Wang Jian smiled without answering and took a step forward, her chest slowly leaning towards him.

Pretending not to notice, Wang Jian continued dancing with her. After a while, Han Yuting whispered, "County Chief Liu wants me to go to Xianhe Township."

Wang Jian was startled and whispered back, "Go to Xianhe Township? What does that mean?"

"Go to Xianhe Township to take up a position!" Han Yuting answered.

This left Wang Jian puzzled. Han Yuting was the county Youth League Secretary, and if she went to a township, she would usually be a township chief. Xianhe Township was where he had just become the township chief. Why did she want to go to Xianhe Township? Thinking about this, his steps became disordered.

"Ouch!" Han Yuting's foot was stepped on.

Stopping quickly, Wang Jian asked with concern, "Are you okay, Secretary Han?"

Han Yuting lifted her foot and laughed, "I didn't expect you to really step on my foot. I'll step on yours later."

"Hehe, sure, Secretary Han can step on me anytime!" Wang Jian laughed.

Others saw Han Yuting call out and came to check, but she quickly waved them off, "I'm fine, just stepped on my foot!"

Everyone stopped asking. Zhao Yanyan, who was dancing with Zhao Dongbo, couldn't help but look over and then look away.

"Secretary Han, I didn't understand what you said!" Wang Jian and Han Yuting started dancing again, and he asked.

Han Yuting looked up at Wang Jian's face and said, "Your township is short of a deputy party secretary, right? County Chief Liu wants me to take that position."

A section-level official going to a deputy section-level position was unusual. Wang Jian didn't understand why Liu Qingshan would make such an arrangement, nor why Han Yuting would agree to it.

"Secretary Han, you're the county Youth League Secretary. If you go down, you should at least be a township chief. Why think about being a deputy in Xianhe Township?" Wang Jian couldn't help but ask.

Han Yuting fell into deep thought. Liu Qingshan told her that he wanted her to go to Xianhe Township as a deputy party secretary, and then she could be promoted to party secretary like Zheng Shiguang. But she always felt that Liu Qingshan didn't want her to stay in the county and wanted her to leave. She had followed Liu Qingshan for two years, and now he wanted to separate from her. She didn't know whether to agree to Liu Qingshan's request, but seeing Wang Jian today, she suddenly decided to agree. If she went to Xianhe Township, she could be with Wang Jian every day. Although she didn't know what the outcome would be, she didn't want to think about it. As long as she could be happy, she would be content.

"I haven't decided yet, Township Chief Wang. Can you give me some advice?" Han Yuting asked with a smile.

This put Wang Jian in a difficult position. Only the person involved could make such a decision. Although he hoped to have more allies in the township party committee, if Han Yuting went, she might stand with him. But he couldn't make the decision for her. Han Yuting was a section-level official, and being a deputy party secretary in the township would be a step down.

"Secretary Han, I don't think I can say much. You're comfortable working in the county, but working in the township is much busier and might not be good for a female official like you!" Wang Jian tried to consider Han Yuting's situation.

Han Yuting looked at Wang Jian's chest and nodded, "You're right. I've thought about it, but now I want to experience township life. Township Chief Wang, do you welcome me to Xianhe Township?"

"Hehe, of course I welcome you. Why wouldn't I? I'm more than happy!" Wang Jian smiled at her.

"Really? Then I'll have to think about it seriously!" Han Yuting immediately said happily.

Although Han Yuting was bold and fiery, she unconsciously showed a gentle side while dancing with Wang Jian. After dancing for a while, Wang Jian felt tired and stopped, sitting down on the sofa. Just as he sat down, Zhao Yanyan walked over and said, "Township Chief Wang, let's dance!"

Surprised, Wang Jian couldn't refuse and had to get up and dance with Zhao Yanyan. Han Yuting saw this and couldn't help but smile, thinking, "This little girl is competing for a man with me!"

"Township Chief Wang, you sing really well!" After dancing with Wang Jian, Zhao Yanyan smiled at him.

Wang Jian chuckled, "Not really, I haven't sung for a long time, so I'm not very good!"

"I think you sing very well. When can we sing a duet?" Zhao Yanyan smiled and asked.

"Right now, if you want!" Wang Jian said.

"Isn't it too busy now?" Zhao Yanyan smiled, her face blushing.

"How is it too busy?" Wang Jian was puzzled.

"Aren't we dancing now?" Zhao Yanyan said, her face red.

Wang Jian understood. Dancing was more important than singing.

"Township Chief Wang, come to the county often, and we can gather more often." After a while, Zhao Yanyan said again.

"Sure!" Wang Jian replied.

Seeing that Wang Jian had only given a perfunctory answer, Zhao Yanyan said, "Does Township Chief Wang not like dancing with me?"

"How could that be? I'm in a great mood now!" Wang Jian quickly looked at her and said.

"Hehe, I feel that Township Chief Wang and Secretary Han get along well. She's good at dealing with men!" Zhao Yanyan said with a hint of meaning.

Suddenly realizing that Zhao Yanyan might have misunderstood his relationship with Han Yuting, Wang Jian hurriedly said, "We're all friends. I can get along with anyone. We're getting along well, aren't we?"

"Hehe, I can't compare to Secretary Han. Even the county chief can get along with her, but I can't!" Zhao Yanyan said.

Wang Jian understood what Zhao Yanyan meant, clearly referring to Han Yuting's relationship with Liu Qingshan. He didn't know why she was saying these things. Looking down at her, he saw her blushing, her chest rising and falling.

Could she be jealous? Wang Jian's hand involuntarily trembled and lightly pressed on Zhao Yanyan's incredibly soft waist. Zhao Yanyan let out a small cry, drawing strange looks from others.
