The night was like a huge piece of black satin, gently covering the entire campus, while the venue of the welcome party was bustling with activity, like a bright pearl shining in the darkness.
The welcome party started on time at 7pm, and by 6:30pm, the students had already entered the venue in an orderly manner.
Everyone sat quietly in their seats, but their eyes sparkling with excitement and their bodies trembling slightly revealed their inner excitement. Everyone was looking forward to the party, as if a grand carnival was about to begin.
Su Banxia was originally just a handyman at the party. After the party started, her job should have been basically over.
However, due to someone's reasons, she was arranged to sit in the back row beside the school representatives. What made her even more frustrated was that the seat next to her was reserved for Lou Jiyun, and the reason given was that it was convenient for her to take care of Lou Jiyun.
He's not a three-year-old child, does he need to be taken care of so closely?
In fact, someone in that row couldn't come due to some urgent matter, so in order to leave no empty seat in the front row, she was squeezed in like a "patch".
At this time, the evening party had already begun. The lights on the stage were brilliant and the actors' wonderful performances won applause from the audience.
But Lou Jiyun didn't show up for a long time. Su Banxia looked at the empty seat and thought that he might not come.
After all, she had watched the rehearsal of this party five or six times. The programs were nothing new to her, and there was no one she knew around her, which made her feel a little bored and lonely. So, she simply lowered her head and took out her mobile phone to play.
A real-time barrage function was set up on one side of the curtain of the party, so students could swipe the screen at any time to share their feelings and moods.
In such an atmosphere, it was not unusual for Su Banxia to play with her mobile phone. She was bored and started a picture-taking competition with her roommate, trying to find some fun in this somewhat boring wait.
On the phone screen, a message from my roommate kept flashing: "Xiao Xiatian, tell me the truth, where did you get these pictures? We haven't been fighting for a few days, and you actually secretly updated your emoji package?"
Su Banxia looked at the message, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing a faint smile, and her fingers quickly tapped on the screen to reply: [I stole all this from others.]
She was just about to send a message when she suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure bending over and slowly approaching her.
She subconsciously turned her head and saw Lou Jiyun sitting down quietly in the dim light. His movements were light and graceful, like a falling leaf, not attracting much attention.
Su Banxia was slightly startled, and the finger that was originally about to send a message stopped in mid-air. She widened her eyes and looked at Lou Jiyun in surprise, her lips slightly open, as if she wanted to say something, but was speechless for a moment.
Lou Jiyun, on the other hand, looked calm. He gently adjusted his sleeves and focused his eyes on the stage, as if everything around him had nothing to do with him.
Lou Jiyun's appearance tonight was undoubtedly a unique sight. He was wearing a well-tailored suit. The deep and restrained tone made him look even more handsome and tall, as if he was a model walking out of a fashion magazine.
After he sat down, he first raised his right hand and, with an elegant and casual movement, gently unbuttoned his jacket with his index finger and thumb. He then slowly took off the jacket and draped it over his legs. The entire process was done in one go, showcasing his gentlemanly demeanor. Then, he raised his hand again, and his slender fingers unbuttoned a button on his collar. The collar, which had been restrained, instantly loosened, giving him a sense of relaxation.
This series of actions stripped away his usual rigid professorial temperament, replacing it with laziness and leisure, as if at this moment he was not a rigorous professor, but an artist who was relaxing in his spare time.
He was very tall, and even after sitting down, his tall figure still looked a little awkward.
Perhaps in order not to block the view of the people in the back row, he hunched his waist slightly, with his back slightly curved, but it did not affect his temperament at all, but instead made him look more lazy in a different way.
Perhaps sensing Su Banxia's fiery gaze, Lou Jiyun slowly turned his head as if being pulled by an invisible force.
At this moment, the surrounding light was very dim, and only the mottled lights on the stage were like flowing colors, leaving a trace of burning light in his deep eyes.
The two people's eyes met without warning, as if time had stopped flowing at that moment. There seemed to be a thin veil between their lines of sight, shrouded in an indescribable emotion. It was a subtle and indescribable feeling that made people's heart beat faster and their thoughts run wild.
Lou Jiyun just looked at Su Banxia quietly, then the corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing a faint smile.
That smile was like the warm sunshine in spring, instantly dispelling the haze in Su Banxia's heart, but it also made her heart confused for a moment.
Her mind couldn't help but recall the beautiful dream from last night. As she thought about it, she felt her face getting hot, and the heat quickly spread to her ears, making her feel uneasy.
The seats in the auditorium are very compact, with almost no space between adjacent seats.
Lou Jiyun is tall and has long legs. In such a small space, he can only bend his legs and squeeze them under the seat.
In the darkness, his leg accidentally bumped into Su Banxia's. His body stiffened slightly, and he wanted to move away immediately, but found that the space around him was too narrow and there was nowhere to hide.
