Translator: 549690339
Xia Yangyang felt a faint pang of disappointment.
Perhaps it was because Gu Qichen’s icy tone interrupted her anticipation.
But she might have truly disturbed him.
“Then you should get back to work.”
After giving a hum, Gu Qichen hung up the phone.
Xia Yangyang’s disappointment deepened as she held the phone.
She merely missed him and wanted to hear his voice.
At that time…
Gu Qichen was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window in his office on the 99th floor of the Shengyuan Building.
He held a cigarette that had not yet burned out in his hand.
He seldom smoked.
In the thin wisp of smoke was an extraordinarily cold face.
The scene on the balcony just now seemed to come to mind again, his fingers clenched, feeling an unusual irritation.
He least expected…
The next day was the campus festival at A University.
The entire campus of A University was bustling and spirited.
A University was open to the public today, and students from other schools could come and visit.
Of course, the most eye-catching event was the campus festival performance competition among 32 colleges.
Xia Yangyang’s drama performance began at three in the afternoon.
It was the final performance of the entire competition.
Right before going on stage, Xia Yangyang kept checking her phone backstage.
She wondered why Gu Qichen hadn’t sent her a message yet.
He’d promised to come…
Could he truly be that busy?
But even if he couldn’t come, he should at least message her, Xa Yangyang hesitated whether to call Gu Qichen.
But she was afraid of being rejected just like last night.
She didn’t know when she became so cautious.
It was really vexing.
“Yo, is this not our superstar Xia Yangyang? You wouldn’t notice that in a costume, it’s a shame you didn’t join our performance major.”
If came from behind in an eerie tone.
Xia Yangyang turned her head and saw Kim Fei’er sauntering over with a group of girls.
Xia Yangyang frowned, “Why are you here?”
Kim Fei’er crossed her arms, “I came to cheer for you. Don’t look at me like that. I’m genuinely here to congratulate you. Perform well, I’ll be watching till the end.”
At this moment, Gu Zhaohan came over.
Without a word, he walked up to Kim Fei’er and said, “Don’t cause trouble.”
Seeing Gu Zhaohan, Kim Fei’er smiled, “Prince, you look so handsome today, I’ll bring you flowers after the performance.”
“No need.” Gu Zhaohan’s expression was icy.
Wen Xiaochu ran over, “Stop chatting, it’s our turn. Let’s get ready to go on stage.”
Xia Yangyang had no time to think further and hurriedly went on stage.
A girl standing next to Kim Fei’er said, “Prince is really protecting her, Xia Yangyang is so lucky. She stole your role and achieved all the attention. Maybe she’ll be discovered by talent scouts today, and catapult to fame in the entertainment industry. I saw several famous agents just now.”
The corner of Kim Fei’er’s mouth curled up in a strange smile, “The performance hasn’t started yet. Who knows what the result will be? Whether she’ll rise to fame or make a fool of herself, who can say?”
Xia Yangyang, stole my role, stole the person I love, I will make you remember this day forever.
The performance started, and the lights in the auditorium dimmed.
The curtain rose, the music sounded…
“The Zhu Family, known for their decorum for miles around”
“The willful Ying Tai, going to Hang City for her studies”
“She, the pearl of the Zhu Family, shamed her family by showing her face”
“Although reluctant to let her go to Hang City, they fear her declining health”
In the voice of the narrator, the characters came on stage one after another.
