Chapter Thirty
The students below reacted and realized something was wrong: "Yes, if I knew there was such a prize, I would rather not participate in this lottery."
"It's really a deception. I didn't say that there was this prize when I announced the prize just now. The first time I saw someone who was drawn to someone who performed the lottery. If there were no specialties, wouldn't it be a fool? If this is the case, who would still be willing to draw the lottery, it wouldn't be short of that prize."
...
The female host didn't expect that someone would directly question the rules in public, and her face turned pale. She was guilty and was suddenly attacked by someone at this moment. Her lips opened and closed again. She had no idea how to respond. Her hands holding the microphone were trembling slightly.
The male host hurried onto the stage and smiled and rescued: "This is just a little joke. I want to interact with the audience. The third prize won on the 97th. The classmate remembered to get the backstage to receive the prize. Then, the lottery session ends here, let's continue the next program..."
The male host said this, and this episode of the New Year’s Day party is over.
The students' attention quickly focused on the new program, and no one looked at this side anymore. Xia Nan felt a feeling of surviving the disaster. She still had cold sweat in her palms and her legs were a little weak.
Fortunately, it was just a joke. From childhood to adulthood, as long as she needed to do things in front of everyone, such as speeches, she would not participate if she could. If she had to participate, she would prepare carefully and build her mind for a long time before she could be more natural on stage.
She was suddenly called to perform on stage like this, and she was not prepared at all. She had no skills yet, so it was fake to say that she was not panicked.
Some people are born with little courage and can't become much harder than they work hard.
Although everyone stopped looking at Xia Nan, some girls would occasionally look at Ye Chu, blushing and whisper: "Who is the boy who just fulfilled justice? He is so handsome."
"You don't know him? Ye Chu is the first in the monthly exam this time."
"So it's him! I'm more handsome than the legend, like a wolf, unruly, and a god of learning. I would have been number 97..."
...
Seeing the various gazes from the girls, Xia Nan remembered that she had not thanked Ye Chu yet. She turned her head to look at Ye Chu and said sincerely: "Thank you..."
Ye Chu interrupted her: "I said, don't say thank you to me." After a pause, he called out: "Little deskmate."
"ah?"
Ye Chu pushed his body forward a little, his face appeared from the shadows, his dark eyes, his eyebrows and eyes were open and sharp, and his voice was low and magnetic: "If you don't want to do, just say no, no one can force you."
Xia Nan bit her lip lightly, knowing that she was soft-hearted and despised... Li Yue said more than once that she was too easy to bully and asked her to be tougher, but Xia Nan was afraid that others would be embarrassed, especially because of her own embarrassment, and she would feel guilty.
Her white teeth left biting marks on her soft lips. Ye Chu unconsciously wanted to touch the bite mark. Seeing her expression, Ye Chu suddenly laughed. He seemed to sigh and helped her tuck the hair on her forehead behind her ears. He moved intimately, and said, "Forget it."
"It doesn't matter if you don't want to refuse, I will protect you."
"I will protect you for the rest of my life."
The young man's breath was very close to him, and his slightly heavy voice made people slightly drunk in the dark. His movements of tucking her hair were familiar and natural. Xia Nan forgot to hide. She stared at Ye Chu in a daze, thinking in her heart that a domineering person like Ye Chu could be so gentle.
Thinking of this, Xia Nan felt that her heartbeat was getting faster involuntarily. Hey, what's going on? It must be that his fingers were too cold when he tucked his hair, otherwise why would her heart suddenly beating so fast...
Just as Xia Nan was restless, a scream suddenly broke out on the field, and the boy shouted "Goddess--" "Goddess!!--"
When Xia Nan saw that it turned out that Huang Yi had appeared.
Li Yue sarcastically said, "From this perspective, Huang Yi's methods are quite a lot of food for boys. Look at how popular she is in other classes."
As we looked at it, everyone found that something was obviously wrong with Huang Yi today.
When she danced, she was mostly smiling with her eyebrows and eyes, confident and arrogant, but now she looked very bad. Although she was trying hard to laugh, she was completely different from the bold and free smile she used on weekdays, and she laughed even worse than crying.
The rhythm of her dancing was not right. She danced wrongly several times, and the screams below became less. The layman could see that she danced wrongly, which shows how obvious her mistake was.
Chen Mufeng whispered: "She doesn't seem to be in good condition..."
Xu Yan was also a little disappointed: "Maybe, I have a lot of expectations for her dancing, alas."
Li Yue held her face with her hands and frowned and watched Huang Yi dance. She thought while watching. Based on her understanding of Huang Yi, Huang Yi was not the one who would make mistakes on such a big occasion.
I just saw her in the toilet, but why is it like this now... Wait, the toilet, it's wrong!
Li Yue suddenly opened her eyes wide, and she remembered that the one she threatened by Huang Yi just now seemed to be the female host!
She was just looking at whether it was Huang Yi, and she just glanced at the girl next to her casually. She vaguely remembered that there was an orange hair accessories on her head. Looking back now, the host just now also had an orange dress and hair accessories.
So... In fact, it was the female host who deliberately made things difficult for Xia Nan, and it was Huang Yi's instructor? If the embarrassment failed, it might have started arguing, but Huang Yi's face was so bad?
This speculation is too bold. Although Li Yue knows that Huang Yi is very brave, she is too brave in the lottery session when she is watching everyone, right?
Li Yue was shocked by this speculation and felt a little complicated. She looked at Xia Nan silently. Xia Nan was still watching the show seriously, not knowing that she was not the "lucky one" who was drawn, but was targeted.
Li Yue sighed in her heart, Xia Nan is so good, and she always swallows the pain in her stomach when encountering things. Huang Yi has the nerve to bully such a good person, so won’t his conscience hurt?
Alas, these are just her guesses now. She will make sure it is, find clues, and then tell Xia Nan after confirmation.
Thinking of this, Li Yue felt a little reluctant. If Xia Nan knew, she would definitely be sad. She obviously did nothing wrong, but she was inexplicably hated.
It is said that there is no annoyance or liking in this world for no reason, but sometimes the so-called "reasons" are not the fault of the parties involved at all.
It was getting late and the New Year's Day party was coming to an end.
The penultimate program is Xu Zirui's solo, and he sang Milk Coffee's "If Tomorrow". On the stage, he was wearing a white striped suit, and a beam of light shone quietly on him, as if he had a layer of white light, making him look elegant and grand.
As the accompaniment sounded, the audience gradually became quiet, and a clear and smooth male voice came from the stage: "Time is a closed container/No one can understand or see clearly/The arrangement in life makes us meet/hold my hand and walk..."
The expression on Xu Zirui's face was quiet and intoxicated, and the innocent singing echoed in the auditorium. The audience clapped their hands with the rhythm of the song. Xu Yan also sincerely sighed: "Xu Zirui's singing is really good. After all, he has not lost the people of our key class. Our key class is not only good at reading."
Chen Mufeng didn't answer his words: "Stop talking."
Xu Yan was a little puzzled. When he turned his head to the left, he saw Ye Chu's right middle finger tapping on the seat handle one after another. Judging from the rhythm of his tapping, he was obviously impatient.
Let’s take a look at Xia Nan… and clapped her hands with other audiences to play Xu Zirui with accompaniment.
Xu Yan understood everything, and he shrank silently without saying a word.
Singing to the high end, the rhythm was faster, and the last high end was very high, Xu Zirui exhaled evenly, singing this high end effortlessly, smooth and natural: "If tomorrow / you and I still keep our promises / besides time / what else can you do / can take you, I love the most with me-"
When he sang high notes, his right hand slightly raised, and as the tone rose, his right hand gradually moved upward. When he sang "I love you the most", he smiled and pointed his right hand suddenly, pointing accurately at Xia Nan in the audience.
The audience immediately followed his pointing and looked back:
"Mist grass! Is this confession with lyrics?"
"Oh my God, it's so romantic!!"
...
Xia Nan was just playing the rhythm like everyone else, but who knew that Xu Zirui on the stage suddenly pointed at her. Her eyes and Xu Zirui looked at each other directly. Xu Zirui smiled, her eyes soft and faintly affectionate.
Xia Nan was a little confused, her face turned red, she was not going to put down her hand that was hitting the slap, nor did she go on the slap, nor did she go on the slap, so embarrassed that she didn't know what to do.
Li Yue smiled ambiguously: "Yuyou, Xu Zirui finally couldn't help it. An Nan, I think you want to be popular."
Xia Nan was not in the mood to joke with her, so she finally put her hand back and placed it on her legs, and did not continue to beat the slap.
After Xu Zirui pointed at her, she continued to sing with the accompaniment, but the audience had already started discussing below-
"Who is he referring to? Does anyone know?"
"I know, it's the No. 97. I heard that everyone in the key class knows that the person who sings likes her."
"No. 97? She is so lucky. Didn't there be a boy who stood up for her just now?"
...
The audience in front of them frequently looked back, wanting to know how beautiful this No. 97 is. Xu Yan and Chen Mufeng had already started to make a fuss when they encountered such a scene, but at this moment they didn't even dare to move.
Xu Yan saw with his own light that the hand that Ye Chu had just tapped on the seat handle had stopped.
The auditorium was obviously very warm, but Xu Yan and the others felt that it was like falling into an ice cave at this moment. Water drips into ice for three hundred miles around them, and the dust floating in the air was frozen into ice residue.
You don’t have to look at it and know... There must be a storm brewing in Ye Chu’s black eyes at this moment.
Xu Yan didn't know whether it was better to pray for Xia Nan first or Xu Zirui first. The calendar said that it was not advisable to go out today, as there might be a bloody disaster...
He didn't believe it at first, but now it seems that it is true.
