Chapter 46
Encouraged by this experience, the drama club became even more excited and stepped up their rehearsals, planning to rehearse and perform both "La Dame aux Camélias" and "Tess of the D'Urbervilles".
Because of the success of Wuthering Heights, the second time around the venue was even more packed, with no room to stand.
Many teachers also came here because of its reputation. Zhou Minlin got the news and reserved a seat in the front row in advance, and asked someone to serve tea and snacks.
Xiao Shuang last played the sister-in-law of the heroine Catherine, and this time she plays Nannina, the maid of the Lady of the Camellias.
Her personality is very similar to this character, lively and cute, like a jumping little rabbit.
She was wearing an off-white dress with ruffles, her hair was tied up in curls, and she had a white silk flower on her head. As soon as she appeared, the boys sitting next to Wen Runze started to shout, "Look, it's your Feng Shuangjia."
Wen Runze's shy smile turned into a sunflower.
I also heard someone say, "This is Wen Runze's girlfriend. You are so lucky."
Amidst the sounds of praise, Wen Runze couldn't stop smiling.
Wang Jiazhi wore a white ruffled cake dress, a white headband, and white camellias on her head. Despite limited funds, she went to a florist and bought red and white camellias. Her appearance was truly stunning.
The girls in the audience said, "Don't be fooled by Wang Jiazhi's usual quietness. She really is like a stage spirit, and she can play any role perfectly. This one is even prettier than the last one."
"She's very good at writing stories. She wrote the previous script, and she also made some changes to this one. I guess the creator can better understand the characters' emotions."
Teacher Yang, who was sitting in the first row, and her colleagues proudly said, "This is my student. I taught her how to write the script."
The teacher beside him nodded in admiration.
The story goes that the heroine has to reluctantly leave the hero in order to save his family's reputation and his sister's marriage. The hero doesn't know her difficulties and begs her to come back to him.
She said painfully, "There will be no me in your future."
As soon as these words came out, Wang Jiazhi felt as if her heart was plucked away, and her tears could not stop flowing.
She continued with the next performance smoothly, but her tears never stopped.
After the curtain call, the audience cheered. Wang Jiazhi took the flowers presented to her with a smile, but she couldn't stop crying.
The junior was acting for the first time, and seeing this, she was very excited and intoxicated. She shook her arm and said, "Senior, this is great."
"yes."
Zhou Minlin laughed and said, "You were so into the role that you even started crying."
Wang Jiazhi laughed and said, "Yeah, why do you just keep crying?"
Seeing that she couldn't stop crying and her makeup was about to be smudged, Zhou Minlin quickly took his sleeve to wipe her tears.
Wang Jiazhi recalled that someone once wiped her tears with his sleeve, and her tears burst out even more.
She hurried backstage and flushed her eyes with water for a long time. She finally stopped crying, but her eyes were swollen.
Fate is so strange. It makes two people who are obviously unlikely to meet meet each other, and then go their separate ways and never see each other again in their lives.
After hurriedly thanking her for her makeup, Zhou Minlin introduced her and several other people to the teachers who came to watch the drama. Cobra even came and took her hand and said many words of praise.
Wen Runze was dressed very formally today, wearing a pair of glasses and holding a bouquet of purple roses in his hand. He went to the stage to give the flowers to Xiaoshuang.
Xiao Shuang was so happy that she wanted to jump and hug him as usual, but when she realized there were so many people around, she lowered her head shyly.
The person next to him said, "Just hug us if you want. Do you think we are outsiders?"
It was already ten o'clock when we finished cleaning up, so we went to the school gate for a midnight snack.
The junior schoolmate was holding Wang Jiazhi's arm, still immersed in the dreamy atmosphere just now.
"Senior, it feels like a dream. Take me with you next time."
Wang Jiazhi smiled and said, "Okay. But don't get too obsessed with the feeling on stage. Although it's great, it's all just an illusion. You still have to live in reality."
Wang Jiazhi turned around and saw Zhou Minlin looking at her, but he smiled slightly and said nothing. He probably saw the sadness in her expression.
Meihui said to Xiaoshuang, "Didn't you see your Wen Runze, her mouth is splitting to the back of her head from laughing. You are her pride."
Xiao Shuang laughed and said, "I'm just playing a little maid, not a big shot. Why should he be so proud?"
As he said this, he lowered his head and laughed.
Wang Jiazhi whispered to Zhou Minlin, "This is pretty good. Life is hard enough. We're all happy, and we can raise money to help the front lines. No one will say we're heartless."
Zhou Minlin said, "Yes, you don't have to be indignant all day long just to worry about the country and the people. They may not understand, but they have made some contributions, which is good. Not everyone can care about the world like you do."
Wang Jiazhi felt a prick in her heart. She had the whole world in her heart, how ridiculous! She was the one who was truly sinful.
Back then, she was intoxicated by the illusion of the stage. Not anymore, and the admiration and praise from the audience was of no concern to her.
She recalled a story she had read as a child. She had forgotten the details, but she only remembered that the heroine had white hair at a young age, and the hero had traveled through thousands of mountains and finally found a magic medicine to cure her, but he froze to death on the snowy mountain for the sake of the medicine.
The heroine said that even if her hair turned black, who would she show it to?
