[Big Boss Chapter 22] Risking Life
"Hey, Class 3, get ready, it's your turn next!"
In the backstage, students from various classes participating in the performance were making final preparations, and Chu Jiao heard the host's announcement.
"Got it!" Class committee member Wang Minyu responded and began to count the number of people.
"Hey, where's classmate Fu Xiruo?" Wang Minyu looked around and didn't see the second female lead.
"I don't know..."
"She was here just now..."
Chu Jiao looked up and glanced at the not-so-big backstage, and indeed didn't see Du Xiruo.
"Sorry, sorry," Du Xiruo trotted over from the secret door that opened not far away, "I just felt a little uncomfortable in my stomach..."
"It's okay, it will be fine when we get here." Wang Minyu didn't care much, and the others were also rubbing their hands and waiting to go on stage. Only Chu Jiao glanced at the dust on the edge of Du Xiruo's white skirt and said nothing.
The curtain was drawn on the stage, and everything was ready.
The narration began.
"It is said that there is a small teahouse in Taiyuan City, called Haojieju. The shopkeepers are a mother and daughter. The daughter is as beautiful as a flower, and her appearance is stunning..."
Chu Jiao appeared in a simple dress.
She had a double-ring bun on her head, and she moved neatly between the tables and chairs, pouring tea and serving dishes, so smooth. Her palm-sized face was lightly powdered, and her big black eyes made her look cute and lovely, attracting the tea drinkers to order food.
"Dusan, do you know this little beauty?"
In the first row of the stands, Yoshida Hideaki looked at the girl on the stage who was resisting the nobleman who wanted to tease her with his eyes empty and lustful eyes, feeling a little itchy.
The girl looked really... cute.
"Hey," Du Shourong glanced at the governor who was two seats away from them, and whispered, "This is the fiancée of Governor Yan."
"Tsk," Yoshida Hideaki smacked his lips with regret, "It turns out to be the future Lady Yan." Du Shourong
breathed a sigh of relief, but was a little depressed.
Although he also expected the Japanese to fight the Peking government, looking at Yoshida Hideaki's courage, he obviously didn't dare to provoke Yan Zhan.
This coward!
On the stage, the plot was tight, and soon it came to the scene where Chen Yueying, played by Chu Jiao, and Xiang Cui'e, played by Du Xiruo, were fighting.
"How dare you! Where did this lecher come from!"
Du Xiruo shouted, and drew his sword.
Chu Jiao wanted to dodge as she did in rehearsal, but she didn't expect that Du Xiruo was serious, and every move was full of vigor.
Chu Jiao quickly dodged and raised the sword in her hand to block.
Du Xiruo was a little surprised. She obviously didn't expect that Chu Jiao could actually use a sword. The sword flower was very beautiful, but fortunately there was no internal force. Du Xiruo breathed a sigh of relief and pushed people to the center of the stage. Chu
Jiao was forced to retreat again and again, and soon retreated to the center of the stage, standing right under the bright chandelier.
Then the next moment, a strange change occurred.
The huge eight-petal lotus chandelier actually began to shake, and then, before everyone was prepared, it smashed straight towards the two people in the center of the stage.
"Ah ah——"
Seeing that the students on the stage were about to bleed to death, the audience in the auditorium screamed in fear.
Yan Zhan, who had been concentrating on watching the performance, felt his heart being tightly squeezed. He stood up suddenly, supported himself on the edge of the stage, and ran towards the stage.
Get out of the way! Jiaojiao, get out of the way!
Chu Jiao understood Du Xiruo's plan the moment the incident happened.
She took advantage of Du Xiruo's distraction to knock away her knife with a sword, grabbed her and dodged to the side.
This heroine is simply crazy! Just
for a dragon button, not only did she want to take advantage of the situation to hurt her, but in order to prove her innocence, she even disregarded her own life!
