When they arrived at the restaurant, the three of them ordered some food casually and chatted while waiting for the food to be served.
Speaking of the drama club, Zhao Mei was actually quite curious. In the three years before college, she was either busy working part-time or preparing for projects and exams. She had never seen the drama club's performance, let alone joining a club.
New things always make people curious. Zhao Mei asked curiously, "With so many people signing up today, it's impossible for all of them to join the club, right? Will there be a selection later?"
Yan Zhi thought about the number of people today and said, "In previous years, the selection process wasn't very difficult, and not many people signed up. After all, our flyer also said that if you don't have much time, we don't recommend signing up. Because we usually have rehearsals and dress rehearsals before the performance, it's not just a matter of one or two times, and we also have to practice some basic skills, such as acting, emotions, and reciting lines. So many people gave up because of this."
"However, judging from the number of people this year, it may not be possible to just look at the registration form and the small interview as in previous years. We may have to use the school's small theater for the selection. For me as the president, this is a sweet trouble." Yan Zhi smiled and shook his head.
Zhao Mei thought about the physical training that Qiu Jiahe always complained about. "So what will the selection process look at? Basic skills or something? Or just willingness to learn?"
"Generally speaking, it's best to have a basic foundation. But if you don't have one, they'll usually randomly hand out a short clip of a play for you to watch and give it a try. Even if you're talented, they'll accept it even if you've never performed or practiced drama before." Yan Zhi thought for a moment, "But judging by the number of people this year, the scripts will probably be handed out half a day in advance. Handing it out on the spot will definitely be a mess."
Zhao Mei, the culprit, scratched her face and said, "Ah, it seems there are too many people. I thought the more people the better, hahaha..."
As soon as he finished speaking, the dishes were served one after another. Qiu Jiahe couldn't wait to pick up his chopsticks: "Boss, Meili, eat quickly, eat quickly, chatting is not as important as eating."
Watching Qiu Jiahe concentrating on showing off to his fans, Zhao Mei suddenly thought, "Jiahe, isn't there a welcome party the day after tomorrow? Doesn't your drama club have any performances?"
Qiu Jiahe almost choked: "Yes, it's a short clip from a drama, but I'm just a passerby, it doesn't matter."
Before Zhao Mei could speak, Yan Zhi spoke ruthlessly, "But there's a celebration in a month, and rehearsals will begin in half a month. And if I remember correctly, Miss Jiahe, the leading actress, will be choosing her clothes in a few days. Xiao Meng is still waiting for me to design your hair and makeup."
Qiu Jiahe wanted to cry but had no tears. He turned his grief and anger into appetite: "Okay, okay, President, I get it, I get it. I really will only indulge myself this once. I've been eating grass abroad for a month and I'm finally back home. I swear this is the last time!"
Zhao Mei, knowing that Qiu Jiahe had indulged herself several times in the past two days, sighed and didn't expose her. She helped smooth things over: "Don't worry, President Yan, I'll always be in charge of Jiahe's diet before a performance, and this time is no exception. With something as important as a performance, I will definitely help her control it."
The three of them continued to eat while chatting and laughing, and soon the food on the table was cleared away.
After paying the bill and reaching the door, Yan Zhi offered to take the two girls back to the dormitory. Since it was indeed getting late and the men's and women's dormitories were on the same way, they agreed and walked back together.
The campus of Capital University, the flagship of China, is quite large. Apart from scattered dim streetlights, only the moonlight shining through the tree branches illuminates the path.
As the three of them walked and talked, Zhao Mei learned a lot of inside stories about the drama club that she was curious about, such as why Jiahe was always so tired after every rehearsal that he wanted to lie down immediately, or why the drama club's performances were always at around seven o'clock in the evening, causing her to always miss them because of work.
Time always flies the fastest when people are chatting enthusiastically. They soon arrived at the girls' dormitory. Zhao Mei and Qiu Jiahe said goodbye to Yan Zhi and walked into the dormitory building arm in arm. They were talking and laughing and didn't notice Yan Zhi's gaze fixed on Zhao Mei.
At this time, Yin Chunya, who had been following Yan Zhi all the way after seeing him on the way to buy food, had a terribly dark face, and Feng Nan, who was following her, involuntarily took two steps away from her.
Yin Chunya thought about the smile Yan Zhi had shown to Zhao Mei along the way, and the reluctant look he had given Zhao Mei just now, and she was burning with anger. The poor water bottle in her hand was clenched so tightly that it made a creaking sound.
From the moment she opened the dormitory door yesterday, the stunned Yin Chunya's heart was filled with jealousy and resentment. Why? How could that fat pig become so thin and beautiful? Wouldn't it be better to just be an ordinary fat person?
I even introduced her to a handsome guy as a boyfriend, and she still wasn't satisfied? She even broke up with him. Who else would want her if she was in that state?
Yin Chunya almost bit her lips. How could Yan Zhi treat her so well after just one day? She would attend every drama club performance, but every time she asked for his contact information, she failed!
After spitting fiercely, Yin Chunya felt that the fat pig's face must have been plastic surgery. What kind of weight loss training camp was this? How could a normal person be so beautiful just by losing weight?
And she was wearing all these luxury goods. She must have used her plastic surgery face to seduce rich men! Now she was using this fake face to seduce Yan Zhi!
Yin Chunya became more and more angry as she thought about it. She bit her manicure hard, completely ignoring the decoration on it. Suddenly she remembered something, picked up her mobile phone, looked through the photo album, and found the dormitory photo taken before. She stopped biting her nails and called Feng Nan. The two did not go into the dormitory, but went in another direction together.
On the other side, more than one person saw Yan Zhi sending Zhao Mei home, including Liang Guanyu, who was about to go clubbing.
After seeing Zhao Mei from a distance downstairs of the women's dormitory, Liang Guanyu left his brothers who were walking side by side with him and planned to continue to pester her. When he got closer, he found the man standing opposite Zhao Mei. Looking at that face that had nothing to do with ugly, Liang Guanyu could only call him a pretty boy.
After stopping to look, Liang Guanyu realized that the atmosphere was not right and was about to rush forward with a dark face. However, his brother who noticed that he was lagging behind pulled him and said, "What are you doing, Lao Liang? Why are you dawdling today?"
Liang Guanyu stared at Zhao Mei and said, "That bitch girlfriend of mine is cheating on me. Damn it! She hasn't even broken up with me yet, but she's already impatiently looking for someone new."
Listening to Liang Guanyu's gnashing words, the brothers didn't take it to heart: "It's just a woman, why don't you kick her out? Besides, there are large forests in the nightclub today. Let's go quickly, don't waste time here, if you go too late the forest will be cut down."
After saying that, she pulled Liang Guanyu and was about to leave. Liang Guanyu watched Zhao Mei enter the dormitory building and did not continue to chase her. He just kept cursing Zhao Mei in his heart, completely ignoring the fact that Zhao Mei had broken up with him a long time ago.
