Rebirth in 1986: Unforgettable Regrets

Chapter 1276: Chapter 1276: I Don’t Need You to Look Back

"Right, we can go watch it together then." Tang Jun said with anticipation, "A live concert must be amazing. Are you going?"

"Yes." Yuan Yu didn’t even have to consider it. She had always wanted to go, but Xie Ni rarely held concerts. Even if there was one occasionally, tickets were hard to get. She had been longing to watch one.

"Then we’ll go together when the time comes." Seeing her accept the ticket, Tang Jun left happily. He glanced at Yuan Yu’s unfinished wontons and asked, "Shall I help you take it away and throw it out?"

He was trying to save Yuan Yu the trouble of taking out the trash.

Yuan Yu glanced longingly at the few remaining wontons but didn’t dare to say she wanted to finish them. She just leaned back on the sofa, closed her eyes, and waved at Tang Jun, saying, "You should go now. I’m tired, and I need to shower and rest later."

"You just ate. You should wait half an hour before showering." Tang Jun, tidying up swiftly, reminded her, "Remember to lock the doors and windows at night."

"Just go already."

Yuan Yu urged, eyes closed. Even just by listening to the sounds, she could tell what Tang Jun was doing. His chattering filled the room, leaving her with mixed feelings. The Tang Jun who once always rejected her; the day she dreamed about in the past had finally arrived.

Yuan Yu thought she was over it, but looking at him, she couldn’t help but feel soft-hearted. No, she couldn’t allow herself to be soft-hearted. What if something like this happened again in the future?

When she heard Tang Jun reaching the door, she suddenly opened her eyes and said, "Tang Jun, I’ve said it before, I won’t look back."

Tang Jun instantly understood Yuan Yu’s meaning, paused his hand that was about to open the door, turned around, and in the warm yellow light, Yuan Yu’s face blurred a bit, but her determined look reminded him of himself back then.

The room fell silent.

They stood just three or four meters apart; Yuan Yu remained still, simply looking at him.

Finally, Tang Jun spoke, "You don’t need to look back, I’ll catch up with you."

...

Inside, Yuan Yu was holding that one ticket. Originally sleepy, now she couldn’t catch a wink.

"Ah..."

"Tang Jun, you bastard!"

Yuan Yu couldn’t help jumping up and down on the sofa, holding the ticket tightly, wondering why she felt like she was bound in this lifetime to someone named Tang Jun!!!

As October 10th approached, Xie Ni’s concert was about to begin. Busy day in and day out, even in rehearsal, she was extra attentive. This was her first show on the national tour, she wanted everyone to feel the concert was worthwhile, and she hoped to set a good start.

Catching a break, seeing Tang Yue backstage, Xie Ni handed her a ticket, earnestly inviting Tang Yue to the concert.

"Sister Xie, rest assured, I will definitely be there for your concert." Tang Yue promised straightforwardly. Even if Xie Ni hadn’t given her a ticket, Tang Yue would have bought one herself to see the show.

However, Xie Ni’s concert tickets were truly hard to come by.

Being her clothing designer, Tang Yue naturally had to make the final confirmation. Those clothes had taken a lot of effort to design, they had to be perfect without the slightest flaw.

"Sister Xie, focus on the rehearsal, we’ll be cheering you on tomorrow." Tang Yue didn’t speak much to Xie Ni, she had little personal time, and a lot to do.

After confirming the clothes were fine, Tang Yue went home.

"Mom, are we going to watch Aunt Xie sing tomorrow?"

Chenchen looked at Tang Yue with bright eyes, full of anticipation, "Can I wear that princess dress? The white one with pink flowers."

Chenchen had many dresses, but the one she mentioned was newly made by Tang Yue.

"You can, but Mom reminds you, don’t run around, you must stay by my side." Tang Yue warned. At such a crowded concert, if she brought Zaozao and Chenchen, safety could not be overlooked.

"Mhm mhm." Chenchen nodded emphatically.

Zaozao, before Tang Yue could ask, added, "Mom, I’m not like Chenchen; I won’t run around."

"I would never." Chenchen answered loudly, but her darting eyes betrayed her guilty conscience.

After repeated reminders, knowing her daughters’ nature, Tang Yue naturally had to inform Ding Ling about the concert the next day, and she would call upon the protection sent by Meng Si Yu and Lian Qingyang.

Watching a concert was a good thing, but it shouldn’t lead to any accidents.

"Xiao Yue, we’re not going, it’s too noisy." Zhang Hualian wasn’t interested. As she said, she’d rather listen to tapes at home; with age, interest in such things had waned.

"Alright, you and Dad can stay home."

Tang Yue didn’t insist, having distributed tickets to close acquaintances, and given tickets to the whole studio.

When Lu Jingjing and Li Yongmei received their tickets, they were thrilled.

Not only did they have a chance to go abroad for fashion shows, but they also got concert tickets.

Everyone was full of gratitude toward Tang Yue.

Tang Yue smiled, "Watching the concert is one thing, but today’s work still needs to be done. No slacking off; tomorrow you get a day off."

"Sister Xiao Yue, I love you so much."

"Thank you, Sister Xiao Yue."

The studio buzzed with excitement.

At night, they gathered for a meal, talking about the concert the next day. Tang Yue asked, "Do you have time tomorrow?"

"Yes." Si Yu replied without thinking, although having a party tomorrow, he decided to send Li Wei instead. Family came first.

Suddenly, accompanying his wife and kids, Li Wei yawned.

Xu Huan asked, "Is it getting colder and you caught a cold?"

"Not sure, maybe." Li Wei answered dismissively, asking, "Xie Ni’s concert tomorrow, do you want to go? Sis’s got tickets."

"No."

Xu Huan shook her head, "Fangfang doesn’t like noisy places, I’d rather stay home with Fangfang watching cartoons."

"Together tomorrow then."

Li Wei, looking at his wife and daughter, considered it sweetly, unaware of the party he’d be attending tomorrow.

...

"Xiao Jun, how are things going with Xiao Yu?" Tang Yue asked curiously, looking at Tang Jun.

Tang Jun looked at Tang Yue’s face filled with mischief, "Sis, we... there’s nothing going on."

"What do you mean nothing? Haven’t you been looking for her more frequently lately?" Tang Yue was concerned about her brother, especially his lifelong happiness.
