Chapter 114: School Festival Invitation
Fu Liangxia stared blankly at the figure who rushed in and knocked Fu Langshu down, completely expressionless, and was so shocked that she didn't know what to say -
Fu Langshu steadied himself on the bed, stood up, and examined Fu Haoyao, who stood there with his lips pursed after angrily throwing a punch. He pondered for a moment, as if trying to confirm something. After a long pause, he spoke, "Is this the new way of greeting you've learned?"
"It's all your fault!"
Although his brother instantly extinguished his arrogance, Fu Haoyao still roared with a stern face.
"If you can't protect her, don't involve her!"
Bai Yan and his group who followed in were also obviously stunned, and were in an awkward position, not knowing whether to leave or stay.
However, Fu Haoyao didn't explain his belated rebellion at all. After he finished speaking, he quickly took two steps towards the bed, squatted down, and gently and carefully grasped Fu Liangxia's fingertips and pressed them against the side of his face. He looked up at her and said, "Does it hurt?"
The boy was still wearing a high-end suit, his burgundy tie casually torn open, hanging loosely on his dark shirt. His eyebrows were prominent, but his bright eyes were filled with worry and anger at her for abandoning him.
"Do you regret it? If it were me, I would definitely protect you at the first opportunity." He groaned.
Like a puppy that was abandoned by its owner and still clings to him.
A smile spread across Fu Liangxia's lips as she lowered her eyes to look at him: "I'm fine, just a minor skin injury."
"Isn't that a little bit?" Bai Yan originally sat on the sofa in the ward. He looked up at her and said.
They had already consulted a doctor about the situation. They had multiple abrasions on their bodies and a minor elbow fracture...
If it weren't for her damn heroic complex, which made her insist on holding Fu Langshu, she wouldn't have injured her elbow.
Why?
Does she love you so much?
The more Bai Yan thought about it, the more jealous he became. However, he had to maintain a calm expression. The corners of his eyes were stained scarlet, and he looked like they were about to break.
But when Fu Liangxia looked at him inquiringly, he turned his head away uncomfortably and avoided her sight.
So her eyes fell directly on Bai Xin who was standing beside Bai Yan.
The other person still had that expressionless and arrogant look on his face, and his voice was flat: "The doctor recommends that you stay in bed for two weeks, but the math competition is next week. What are you going to do? Do you need me to ask for leave?"
As early as when Fu Liangxia made the plan and exchanged the previous task reward for this action against Fu Langshu through the system, she had taken into account the possibility of injury affecting the exam.
After all, this competition directly determines whether she can be admitted to the top universities in the country, and also indirectly affects her subsequent plans, so she naturally cannot miss it.
"No, I will attend on time," she said, ignoring the disapproving looks from others.
She still knows the importance of men and her future.
*
The days after returning to school passed quickly. Under the pretext of needing to rest, Fu Liangxia didn't go to school, but stayed home to study for the exam. She didn't even attend Fu Langshu's birthday party. Later, Xu Cai told her that for some reason, Fu Langshu didn't have a female partner for the dance this year, and he hadn't even intended to find someone to flirt with.
Fu Liangxia didn't say anything about this. She didn't want to attend as Fu Langshu's female companion in the first place. Putting herself in the spotlight in that way would affect the effectiveness of her subsequent plans.
Rather than being an appendage of the Fu family, she hoped that her public appearance as the heir of the Fu family would be about herself, something positive and positive that would win the public's favor and boost Fu's stock price...
For example, "win the gold medal in the competition and get a place in admission."
As for the supplementary classes she was supposed to attend after the preliminary results were announced, Fu Liangxia declined due to illness. However, two days before the competition, the supplementary school was shut down after being found to be colluding with the test-setting group, and all students who participated in the supplementary classes were banned from the competition.
Only she, who did not attend due to illness, and Bai Yan, who did not go for some unknown reason, escaped the disaster.
Over the weekend, Fu Liangxia participated in the rematch of the mathematics competition. The questions were said to be the urgently replaced B paper. The difficulty was not low, and there were several questions beyond the syllabus, but she felt that she answered them well.
Maybe marketing could be arranged in advance, she thought.
The semester is about to end. If she can get the admission qualification, she won’t have to come to school from next semester and can spend more time at the company.
Fu Liangxia checked the favorability of all mission targets and found that they all exceeded the number the system required her to complete, but the system was still slow to determine that the world line correction was complete.
Is there a need for a trigger? Or a time point for judgment?
The system didn't answer her, so she had to suppress her doubts for the time being.
Come to think of it, it seems like something is missing?
She walked towards the classroom thoughtfully. As the school festival was approaching, the entire school was decorated with festive colors. Huge banners were hung everywhere, and the boulevard was filled with RV stalls. The large screen in the lobby of the teaching building was scrolling the school festival program posters in real time.
When Fu Liangxia passed by, the screen happened to show a hand-painted poster of Sleeping Beauty.
Many students were whispering around the poster, and some girls even had tears in their eyes: "Why do you have to play Sleeping Beauty? Why does Su Shao have to do a kissing scene?"
"There's a kissing scene? Who? So lucky."
"Look at the cast list, her name is Fu Liangxia, it sounds familiar."
"Isn't she the girl who had a scandal with the president? Why…"
"More than that, I remember earlier it was revealed that she had relationships with both Young Master Fu and Young Master Bai..."
Fu Liangxia: ...
She remembered what she had forgotten.
But the performance is about to start. Is it really okay that she hasn't participated in any rehearsal?
In response to this, Su Xingshu said there was no need to worry at all, and he believed that with her intelligence and talent, she would be able to fully master it after just one final rehearsal.
If only one rehearsal and one formal performance are required, it won't take up much time in total, but the same credits can be obtained. Fu Liangxia is very satisfied.
On the other side, Fu Haoyao, Bai Yan and Cheng Xingzhou, who were staring at Su Xingshu with deathly eyes after sending the message, were reluctantly satisfied.
"Is this okay?" After reducing the number of rehearsals to just once as they requested, Su Xingshu said speechlessly.
"We have to use a different angle!" Fu Haoyao said with a dog on his shoulder.
Su Xingshu: "I understand."
Bai Yan: "No intimate physical contact."
Su Xingshu: "Okay, okay."
Cheng Xingzhou crossed his arms over his chest, expressionless: "Change the male lead."
Su Xingshu: "Don't go too far."
Fu Haoyao muttered, "Who told you to sneak away so cunningly..."
"You have to earn your own opportunities. She's just threatening me. If you have the guts, invite her too." Su Xingshu said, bending down to pick up the script from the sofa and walking out the door with a victorious smile. "I'm going to rehearse. Do your best. Just close the door for me when you leave."
…
Until the day of the academy festival.
Fu Liangxia finally understood why Su Xingshu was so confident in letting her go on stage after just one rehearsal - because the young ladies and gentlemen in the drama club simply couldn't remember or were too lazy to memorize their lines, so the script had already been changed beyond recognition, and it could even be said that the actors were allowed to improvise.
Fu Liangxia: “…”
Looking at the chaotic rehearsal scene, she fell silent.
The handsome young man who was supporting her lowered his eyes to look at her, raised the corners of his lips, sighed, and said helplessly: "So this is why you were distracted during the important scenes... or is it because I am too unattractive."
Fu Liangxia withdrew her gaze and focused on the young man who was about to perform the "prince kisses the sleeping beauty awake" scene with her. Only then did she realize that she had said what was in her heart.
She blinked, stared at his lips and said, "If it's a real kiss, I will pay full attention."
"...Just pretend I didn't say anything." Su Xingshu stared at her for a few seconds, then looked away. He touched his nose and whispered, "Those guys are already annoying enough. I don't want to exaggerate any further."
What...
Fu Liangxia narrowed her eyes in confusion, not understanding what he was saying. However, she didn't dwell on it for long. After following the rehearsal through to the happy ending of "everyone making dumplings together," she prepared to leave the performance hall.
Following them was a very famous talk show host, and then the finale was Su Xingshu's band.
With Su Xingshu's star power, many fans outside the school had already managed to secure tickets for the school festival, some even sneaking into the rehearsal site right under the noses of security. However, due to the top-notch security on campus, which was completely different from the security at concerts outside, no one had succeeded.
But this also meant that several doors of the theater were definitely blocked by fans at this time.
Fu Liangxia was already tired at the thought of having to go through the crowds to eat.
Why not ask someone to bring one for her?
Sitting in the lounge backstage, surrounded by scattered students waiting for rehearsal, she fiddled with her phone unconsciously.
Who should I look for?
Bai Kewei had her own club activities to attend to. Xu Cai had already excitedly blended into the crowd with her camera when the theater opened. Fu Liedong, "Su Xingshu's number one lackey," naturally didn't want to leave the theater...
When she was slowly thinking and touching up her makeup in front of the mirror, the corridor outside the door suddenly heard the sound of a group of people walking in an orderly manner and occasionally talking to someone who was running to report the situation to someone in the group.
As a figure appeared at the lounge door, the students inside looked up and stood up. Although they didn't know why President Cheng was there, the few program leaders who remained in the lounge gathered around him, greeting him with a mixture of bewilderment and warmth.
Fu Liangxia looked away with disinterest.
A few breaths later, Cheng Xingzhou appeared in her sight carrying a three-layer insulated box, looking down at her.
"Is this for me?" She put down her phone and smiled gently.
Cheng Xingzhou put the lunch box on the table and said, "I saw that your physical examination report for admission mentioned low blood sugar. I was worried that you might faint, so I brought some with me. If you don't like it, I'll ask them to buy some."
The room was silent.
The others, who suddenly felt like they had eaten a big bite, looked at each other with wild eyes.
The two people in the spotlight looked normal.
Fu Liangxia opened the lunch box and looked at the dishes. Seeing that they were all his favorites, he smiled and said, "He's so good at choosing even when he picks randomly. What is there that our President Cheng is not good at?"
Hearing this, Cheng Xingzhou's lips corners silently raised two pixels.
Then he seemed to think of something and his expressionless face returned to normal.
"Nothing like our dazzling Miss Fu, who is proficient in everything and can even handle drama with ease."
The jealousy in his tone almost made her turn into sweet and sour pot-bubbled pork.
Fu Liangxia just smiled and said nothing.
I don't want to explain anything.
But when I looked up, I saw a tall and strong figure stealthily appear at the door.
The red hair is looming.
Fu Liangxia curled the corners of her lips and pretended not to see it, but saw Cheng Xingzhou slowly take out a bag with simple and luxurious packaging from behind him.
Y's haute couture dress, the moon-white satin is faintly visible through the dust bag.
Fu Liangxia's eyebrows twitched slightly, thinking of tomorrow's school dance, and guessed something.
Cheng Xingzhou frowned and didn't look at her: "I just happened to see something suitable. If you don't like it, just throw it away."
However, his trembling fingers still revealed his nervousness.
Fu Liangxia didn't say whether it was good or bad, because she had a vague feeling that Cheng Xingzhou would not be the only one who would send her a dress, and more than one person would invite her.
She looked at the system display showing that all the strategy tasks had been completed and fell into deep thought.
Perhaps it's time to make a decision.
——But not yet.
Fu Liangxia was about to speak when he saw a red-haired man walking towards him from the corner of his eye.
Fu Liangxia: “…”
Cheng Xingzhou: "..." Cheng Xingzhou: "Fu Haoyao, what are you doing?"
"Are you guys done?" Someone, pretending not to eavesdrop, came over and pushed Cheng Xingzhou aside. The corners of his eyes curled up, his pupils shining. "Don't agree to him, Teacher Xia. I want you too."
Cheng Xingzhou's breathing stopped.
Fu Liangxia: “?”
Fu Haoyao then slowly added the second half of the sentence: "I also want you to be my dance partner."
As he spoke, he quickly placed a locker chip key in her hand and winked, leaving her no room for refusal: "Gift~"
As expected, it should be a dress.
At this moment, a girl ran in from outside the door. After a quick look, she locked her sights with her. She hurried over, facing two intimidating gazes, and handed her a handbag, whispering, "Excuse me, are you Fu Liangxia? Young Master Bai asked me to bring this to you. He said he won't be coming in..."
Fu Liangxia: “…”
It's a mess, drink it while it's hot.
"Thank you." She took the bag and put it together with Cheng Xingzhou's. Seeing the girl run away, she stood up and said to the customer, "You should leave now."
Otherwise the lounge would soon be packed with onlookers.
She didn't want to see herself on the forum again.
Fu Haoyao hesitated to speak: "That female companion..."
Cheng Xingzhou was also waiting for her reply silently.
Fu Liangxia: "Let me think about it."
