Meng Ran’s uncontrollable sobs finally woke Mo Zhu up. She pinched the space between her eyebrows in frustration. When she opened her eyes, she saw the girl with a wronged expression with Wang Qiang in front of her.
Anger immediately welled up in her heart. Mo Zhu was so angry that she almost hit this middle-aged man. She raised her hand and touched her chest to calm her anger. She looked at Wang Qiang coldly and said, “Director Wang, aren’t you here to apologize? Why did you make her cry again?”
At this moment, Wang Qiang was also stunned by Meng Ran’s tears. He did not understand what he had done wrong to make this young lady cry.
“Sister Mo, I’m fine. Director Wang’s attitude is quite good.” Meng Ran said as she burped while secretly pulling Mo Zhu’s soft hand from under the desk.
With Meng Ran’s explanation, as Mo Zhu was not someone who liked to make things difficult for others, she waved her hand lightly. Under her instructions, Wang Qiang left Class Eight in a hurry, afraid that something would go wrong.
“Boohoo, Sister Mo, I’m so touched. I didn’t expect that you really were able to solve such a difficult matter for me just because you said you would help me!” Meng Ran cried until she was out of breath. Her palm-sized face instantly turned red.
Mo Zhu was also affected by the atmosphere at this moment. She reached out and gently shook Meng Ran’s hand back. There was a hint of a smile in her eyes. “What’s so difficult about that? It’s just a small matter. Don’t cry anymore. If you continue crying, I won’t care about you anymore.”
After hearing Mo Zhu’s half loving and half threatening words, Meng Ran immediately broke into a smile.
After this farce, time flew by and before they knew it, it was already the day of the singing competition.
After a discussion between Li Xiao and all the students in Class Eight, everyone decided that this year’s duet would be as simple as last year’s. They would still use the same songs and team formation from last year. There was no need to change the accompaniment at all. It was very convenient.
However, what was different this year was that there was an additional Mo Zhu in Class Eight, so everyone had carefully arranged for the girl to be in the center of the class. They even specially prepared to move the microphone with the highest and loudest sound to Mo Zhu when she went on stage.
The competition was held in the school’s auditorium. When it was almost time for the opening, everyone realized that not only were many school leaders sitting below the stage, there were also many influential people from Cloud City present.
With a faint sigh, Meng Ran straightened her back on her seat and looked at the guest seats. She secretly whispered to Mo Zhu, “Sister Mo, I didn’t expect the lineup to be so big today. It seems like Class One is going to show off again today!”
After hearing Meng Ran’s words, Mo Zhu also looked at the guest seats as if there was something serious and she really saw something interesting.
Who else could be bending over to help Fang Ran tie her skirt on the first row other than Qin Ya?
Mo Zhu sneered expressionlessly. Now that she saw the mother and daughter pair being so chummy, not only did she not feel any emotions, she even felt a little disgusted.
After a happy opening theme song, the host, who was dressed exquisitely, walked onto the stage and gave a beautiful introduction.
After giving a simple introduction of the program, the host announced the official start of the singing competition tonight.
Other than the fact that the competitions will start with the Class One of each level, the order of appearance for the other classes had been decided according to the numbers drawn by the form teachers of each class.
Coincidentally, Li Xiao had drawn the number thirteen. There were a total of 24 classes in the three levels of Jingyang High School. It meant that Class Eight would be performing after Class One.
When everyone found out about this news, they were all shocked by Li Xiao’s luck. Some students even suggested that he should immediately buy a few lottery tickets after the competition ended today. If nothing unexpected happened, there was a high chance he would win the grand prize!
Class One and Class Eight finally met in the dressing room officially when it was halfway through the performances and the eleventh class was queuing up to go on stage.
As the first and last of the entire level in terms of results, there had been a lot of grievances between the two classes from the first year to the third year. Now that it was inevitable that the enemies happened to be preparing in the same dressing room, it was fine as the boys kept a cold face and did not speak, but the few girls in Class One who were up to no good started to mock them.
“And here I was wondering who was so lucky to be positioned behind our class. So it’s the students of Class Eight.”
“Isn’t it so? If the teachers are happy after watching our performance, who knows, they might even give Class Eight more marks…”
When these sarcastic words came out, Meng Ran could not help but say, “Did you grow a mouth just to gossip? So the students that are in the famous Class One are just a bunch of gossipers who can’t stop talking.”
When Mo Zhu heard Meng Ran’s slightly higher level of sarcasm, she was amused. She could not help but laugh.
One couldn’t deny that Meng Ran’s words were very provocative. As a result of her words, the atmosphere in the entire dressing room became even more awkward. The two classes that were originally peaceful were now like firecrackers on the verge of going off.
Seeing that someone from Class One wanted to stand out and was secretly approaching them, Mo Zhu lowered her eyes and directly picked up the bottle that someone had finished, left on the table and didn’t throw away. She squeezed the bottle so hard that it creaked as she spoke coldly,
“In order not to cause trouble for our respective form teachers, everyone from Class One please quieten down, okay?”
