Chapter 39 Take Down

Gu Qingge and You Ruoyu's programs were scheduled relatively late.

The performances on stage were all organized by the first and second year high school students themselves. There were not only chorus, solo, and dance programs, but also sketches, crosstalk, etc.

It’s true, some of the skits were quite interesting and made everyone laugh, which really livened up the atmosphere of the entire evening.

Wang Yongming, Chen Xiao's best friend, couldn't help but sigh, "The cultural evenings held in Hanzhong, our province, have always been pretty good. It's a pity that after we graduate, we won't be able to participate anymore."

Chen Xiao smiled and said, "You can participate even after you graduate. As long as you become a famous alumnus, you can come back and enjoy this kind of cultural evening during the school anniversary."

Wang Yongming rolled his eyes. "Chen Xueshen, I'm not like you. Becoming a famous alumnus and being invited to attend the school anniversary celebration is not that easy. Those alumni have become academicians, high-ranking officials, and wealthy people."

After complaining about Chen Xiao's words, Wang Yongming said, "When will it be Gu Qingge's turn? I'm getting impatient waiting."

Chen Xiao smiled and asked, "Didn't you tell me not to look forward to Gu Qingge's show too much? Why can't you wait anymore?"

Wang Yongming said innocently, "Rumors are spreading like that. Her rehearsal performance was not good.

But I think, as long as she wears a gorgeous dress, puts on heavy makeup and stands on the stage, with the lights on, it will be the most beautiful scenery, no matter how well she sings.

Look at Zhu Xingyi, a perfect girl, she can become a goddess just by putting on makeup and wearing a dress."

Chen Xiao was amused: "You always tease me about having a crush on Gu Qingge, but your face of being a fan of Gu Qingge is even more genuine than mine - she's beautiful, that's all, why does she need talent?"

"To be honest, it's true." Wang Yongming admitted shamelessly.

Around nine o'clock in the evening, it was finally Gu Qingge and You Ruoyu's turn to perform.

And after their show, there was a show co-produced by Lin Haoming and Xue Zhi.

If Gu Qingge and You Ruoyu don't perform well, they will become the latter's foil.

When Gu Qingge and You Ruoyu finally appeared on the stage, many students who had been expecting them showed disappointment.

Because Gu Qingge didn't dress herself up for the audience and didn't show her most beautiful and dazzling side.

She only wore light makeup on her face, so much so that the audience thought she went on stage without any makeup on.

Her outfit was clearly just to appease everyone. She wore a school uniform on the upper body and a pair of light blue jeans on the lower body.

In such a situation, her long straight black hair is actually a highlight.

If she still wears a ponytail, then how is it any different from her usual school days?

No matter how beautiful she is, if she always maintains the same image, people will lose their interest in her.

Of course, You Ruoyu did not appear on the stage in formal attire. She just learned directly from Gu Qingge.

Without wearing a dress, You Ruoyu felt relaxed all over, which was actually a kind of psychological suggestion.

That is, this stage is not important at all. She just needs to treat it as her home and play leisurely and casually.

You Ruoyu was already sitting in front of the piano. In her eyes, there was no stage, no crowded audience below, only Gu Qingge.

Gu Qingge, standing in front of the microphone stand and holding the microphone, did not make any eye contact with the audience.

She sang this song only for You Ruoyu.

After Gu Qingge came on stage but before she even started singing, Wang Yongming said disappointedly, "Is this all Gu Qingge is?

Why doesn't she dress up properly? She doesn't take advantage of her strengths at all. How can she be worthy of us, her fans who support her?!"

Chen Xiao expressed a different opinion: "She looks beautiful in her school uniform, and the jeans really highlight her long legs. I think this simple outfit is the most pure and moving, very Bai Yueguang."

Also, you said we are fans who support her, so what have we done for her? Have we spent any money?"

Wang Yongming was choked. He suddenly realized that a "fan" like him was not worthy of Gu Qingge's care, and he had no right to ask Gu Qingge what to wear.

But just now he took it for granted that performers like Gu Qingge should care about them and please them.

This is just an ordinary school cultural evening, not a concert that you have to pay to watch.

"Chen Xueshen, you really are a wife-protecting maniac. You can't even complain about Gu Qingge?" Wang Yongming whispered.

"You can complain all you want, I'm just expressing my own opinion objectively." Chen Xiao said lightly.

At this time, You Ruoyu's piano prelude had already sounded.

Some students have performed piano shows before, but how can their skills compare with You Ruoyu?

To put it in a more philosophical way, You Ruoyu's piano skills are already half a step to becoming a master.

You Ruoyu forgot that this was a stage and performed with ease and at full power!

Even the audience who don't know how to play the piano can feel that You Ruoyu's piano level is completely on a different level from those of her classmates who were amateurs!

People like Xue Zhi, who is a tenth-level pianist and knows piano well, have the deepest feelings.

You Ruoyu's performance made him feel a sense of despair as if he was completely crushed.

Xue Zhi could only secretly hope that You Ruoyu would fail next time...

Next, Gu Qingge finally started singing.

Her face was not facing the audience, but slightly tilted to the side, looking at You Ruoyu.

"Love is like a blank space in the blue sky, with you accompanying me in my imagination..."

This song "Painting" is not a song that will make you kneel down at the first sound. It is more soothing and lyrical.

Gu Qingge sang very attentively, and the look he gave You Ruoyu was extremely gentle.

You Ruoyu played the piano while looking at Gu Qingge with a calm smile on her face.

The two seemed to be exchanging glances, which made many viewers think that this scene was very beautiful...

The lights on the stage were completely focused on the two of them, creating a beautiful picture.

The two girls in the painting, one singing passionately and the other playing the piano in a relaxed manner, seem to be completely isolated from this world, entering a world that exists only for the two of them.

When Gu Qingge sang "I painted you as a flower, a flower that has not yet bloomed."

She couldn't help but take the microphone off the stand, slowly walked to You Ruoyu's side, and then gently took off You Ruoyu's black-framed glasses while singing.

She wanted to see the real You Ruoyu.

You Ruoyu's glasses had no prescription, and when they were taken off, her pretty and delicate face was completely exposed in front of Gu Qingge.

She is really beautiful, but she wears those black-framed glasses, as if she is avoiding something.

Now, Gu Qingge took it off.

"Whenever I am not around, please remember my love, which is under the same sky..."
