Zheng Jufan reported for fifteen minutes, and Chen Youhan asked him to connect with Ren Jia and Gu Xiu to prepare for a conference call. During the break, he sent a WeChat message to Ye Kai, asking him what was wrong.
It was past lights-out time, and the teacher's flashlight flashed in the corridor. Ye Kai turned over and replied to him, "I miss you a little bit." Without waiting for Chen Youhan to say anything else, he immediately added, "Good night, I'm a little sleepy." Before Chen Youhan could send out a voice message, he moved his finger back to the dialog box and typed "Good night."
Ye Kai put his phone under his pillow and fell asleep in a daze. He couldn't sleep well, and there was uneasiness flowing in his mind, like a colorful electric current, trapping him in a bizarre maze. When he woke up in the middle of the night, he found that Chen Youhan said to him in the middle of the night: Baby, you can tell me if you are unhappy.
This was the first time Chen Youhan called him by such an intimate name.
Seeing the word "baby", Ye Kai woke up all of a sudden. He felt a sour feeling in his heart and somehow clicked on the collection button.
After thinking about it and feeling a little humbled, I clicked the cancel button with self-mockery.
I put the phone down for three seconds, turned over, picked it up again, and clicked on the collection again.
The school anniversary was star-studded.
Even though Tianyi does not consider itself an aristocratic school and does not charge sky-high school selection fees and tuition fees, it is still the most "expensive" private school in Ning City, judging from the status of its alumni. Those invited to return to school that day included internationally renowned fashion designers, young entrepreneurs who were listed on the Forbes Asia U30 list at a young age, and young scholars who won national engineering awards. Last year's top scorer in science in Province G also came from Tianyi, and was invited to give a speech and share with the senior high school students in the auditorium in the morning. The first and second high school students made the final preparations for their art performance. In fact, there are many stars among the alumni, and they will also attend the performance, but the immature performances of the students are far more touching than the mature stage and the grand starlight.
Maggie brought the entire studio to do makeup for Ye Kai's classmates, and she did makeup for Qu Jia and Ye Kai alone. After seeing Ye Kai's costume, she smiled maliciously: "Cross-dressing? Then sister must make you into a peerless beauty today."
Ye Kai was calm and could adjust his mood quickly to do his best when he couldn't get rid of something. This was his tenacity.
"Portia is not a peerless beauty, she is intelligent and determined, and her whole person shines with the rationality and nobility of the Renaissance." Ye Kai found Maggie's eyes in the mirror and smiled at her, "Sister Maggie, don't be so presumptuous as to paint Portia as Ophelia."
Maggie stared and pouted playfully: "Although I don't know who Ophelia is, okay, I understand."
The classmates had already put on their makeup, and were either changing into costumes in a mess or huddled together to take selfies. Feather fans, feather hats, sparkling jewel necklaces, wide and gorgeous skirts, the girls were so vain, but the boys were more miserable, wearing white stockings, high-heeled boots, judge-like wigs, velvet capes, and they were all shy. When they saw the stockings, they wanted to take Ye Kai's place in the cross-dressing role. In the end, they agreed to change together and appear together. When they came out, the whole dressing room was full of laughter. Yang Zhuoning looked down at her slender calves wrapped in white stockings, then looked at Ye Kai's three-dimensional and delicate face with makeup, and said angrily: "Who is the cross-dressing boss!"
It was too late to regret. Ye Kai smiled coldly and said leisurely, "Yang Zhuoning, remember to read a book before you make trouble next time."
Yang Zhuoning led the other twelve boys to kneel down and kowtow to Maggie: "Big Boss Sister, please make sure he is more feminine than a woman!"
Maggie used the handle of the brush to slightly lift Ye Kai's face and looked at him in the mirror. In order to make it easier to put on makeup, his hair was tied up on top of his head. He had a smooth forehead, a nice hairline, an extremely smooth face, a thin chin, delicate brow bones, a straight nose, and a slightly deep philtrum that made his lips full and as gorgeous and soft as petals. His eyes were slightly closed, and his long black eyelashes drooped naturally, leaving a small fan-shaped shadow on his eyelids. This downward-looking look was completely marked by Ye Kai's mark, noble, cold, and calm, and it combined into a silent and distant beauty.
The big brush was lightly swept across Ye Kai's face, applying loose powder to the base makeup. She was very familiar with the makeup, blush, eye shadow, eyeliner, lipstick... Because she was a stage girl, she was very ruthless. The high school students gradually became stunned, not knowing whether to marvel at Sister Maggie's superb makeup skills or be shocked by the fact that Ye Kai looked so natural after putting on makeup.
The mission was accomplished. Maggie took off the rubber band on his head, and his soft bangs fell down. He opened his eyes and glanced at Yang Zhuoning and other classmates.
If the usual Ye Kai is just a little cold, then he is sharp with heavy makeup on. He is as beautiful as a sharp dagger that can casually cut down the roses under the night sky.
Yang Zhuoning swallowed unconsciously. He was not tempted, but frightened. No, what about the scene in his imagination where Ye Kai was teased and then shyly fled?
Maggie clapped her hands, rolled up her makeup brush storage bag, and said with a smile, "True beauty has no gender. Both men and women can be beautiful."
Who cares if he is pretty or not! We just want to see him make a fool of himself - Yang Zhuoning's inner dragon roars with impotence and rage.
Maggie took out the hair net: "You want to wear a wig, right? Go change your clothes first."
One of the most boring creatures in the world must be a high school boy. Ye Kai is about to wear a skirt! Okay, I'm alive again! More than 20 mobile phones were pointed at the curtain of the dressing room. Ye Kai looked at the satin dark red court puffy skirt, frowned slightly, studied how to wear it for a while, and lifted the curtain - damn, my eyes were blinded by the light.
"Who turned on the flash?" he asked calmly, lifting his skirt and pulling the curtain.
No one answered him, everyone was frantically pressing the shutter. Zhao Xiaoxin quickly shared it in the class group, with the comment: Gothic girl.
Maggie put a hairnet and a wig on him, patted his shoulder, and said jokingly: "What a pity! If your family wasn't so rich, you could debut as a star for fun."
"Big sister, his acting skills are not good." Zhao Xiaoxin said, and received a lot of support.
"Yes, yes, his acting is not good. It's not that he is not good, it's that his acting is extremely bad!"
Then, as expected, Ye Kai's face turned dark.
"Wow, luckily I'm playing a noble girl and can play myself, otherwise it would be a disaster. Reader, is it reader?"
"I knew he was an old reader the minute he started talking!"
At this time, Bi Sheng pushed the door open and came in. He didn't hear anything. He just glanced at everyone who had finished putting on makeup. He remembered the gorgeous and lively court dance steps he saw them perform during the rehearsal. His confidence suddenly soared: "It's a sure thing! I think our class three will be a big hit this time!"
Yang Zhuoning teased Ye Kai: "Portia, come on, please perform the line 'Oh Bassanio, I'm really worried about Anthony.'"
Ye Kai said expressionlessly: "Oh, Bassanio, I am really worried about Anthony."
The air was silent for two seconds, and then burst into laughter. Maggie held her stomach and laughed until tears came out: "Kai, you look like an emotionless recitation machine in a dubbed movie."
Ye Kai smiled at Bi Sheng obediently: "Teacher, participation is the most important thing."
Bi Sheng: “…”
The program order was decided by drawing lots, and the luckiest person in Class 3 was surprisingly Yu Ranran. Yu Ranran randomly drew the lottery, and everyone shouted that it was awesome. There were a total of 23 programs, and they ranked fifth, which was in line with the psychological needs of Class 2 and 3 of Senior High School to die early and be reborn early.
Ye Kai was waiting on the left side of the stage. The opening was a court dance, and he was the center, leading the dance with Bassanio. The actor who played Bassanio was so nervous that his breathing and heartbeat quickened, but Ye Kai still looked indifferent. Bassanio lifted the red curtain and looked: "Wow, dear Portia, there are so many people!" Ye Kai politely looked over, glanced at the audience area, and then froze on the spot.
Bassanio felt that Ye Kai was insane. In the last second he was calm and composed, as if he had read the script and was sure of winning. But in the next second, he was breathing faster, his face was stiff, his eyes were tense, and his throat was rolling, just like him.
He was not shy and grabbed his wrist to feel his pulse. His pulse was irregular and his heart rate was off the charts, and he was about to faint in the next second!
Ye Kai gritted his teeth: "Asshole!"
Bassanio looked out again and found a man leaning against the railing on the second floor. He was wearing a white shirt and narrow-legged trousers, looking down at his phone. He was in a relaxed posture, revealing a dashing manner. A line of stage light dimly illuminated his deep eye sockets, while the rest of his body was indifferent in the faint shadow.
What a vivid look.
Bassanio shrank back and snorted, "It must be fate destined by God that we have become a family along the way. Hey, boss, see you again."
The domineering president was famous in Class 2-3 of Senior High School. The nervous students who had nowhere to vent their emotions all leaned out to see: "Wow, is Brother Youhan also an outstanding alumnus?"
Ye Kai said coldly: "No, it's an outstanding student."
Everyone: “…”
His schoolbag and clothes were all left in the designated seating area, and his cell phone was not with him. Ye Kai didn't know if Chen Youhan was sending him a message or not, and his palms were sweating with nervousness. When the host started to announce the program, he started to forget the words, and when the host announced the end, he even forgot the dance steps!
The lights dimmed, and a spotlight came on to illuminate them. The curtain opened to both sides, and Bassanio took a picture of the sculpture-like Comrade Portia, and the two of them led the way and gracefully leaped out in a minuet.
The applause was like a tide, and Qu Jia sat in the VIP seat, accompanying several important guests and leaders. She didn't even recognize Ye Kai at first glance, but she thought the leader's posture was outstanding and very beautiful.
Chen Youhan lay on the railing on the second floor, raised the corners of his lips in a half-smile, and fixed his eyes on the beautiful lady in the center of the spotlight.
Lady C's dancing posture is that of a well-deserved celebrity and aristocrat, but her opening words are not like that: "Oh, brave and upright Bassanio, I accept your proposal."
The whole auditorium was laughing like crazy, and they immediately realized that it was a man dressed as a woman. Lady Portia's face was numb and tense, and even though she tried her best to control it, she couldn't help but do an unscripted action - she raised her head and looked at the center of the second floor.
Chen Youhan waved at him nonchalantly with his arm resting on the railing. Although he knew he shouldn't laugh, he still couldn't help but lower his head and smile.
