Chapter 35: School Anniversary Opening

The next afternoon.

The school gatekeepers completely lifted the restrictions, and many people from outside the school came to visit.

Some people found it fresh and took a stroll around the place as if it were a park, taking the opportunity to look at the female students full of youthful vigor.

More came with their children, hoping that their children would yearn for this school and work hard when they went back.

This naturally had no effect, but the school was happy to promote itself in this way.

Chen Lu was with the people from the drama club. They had been together for so many days and naturally had some feelings for each other. He was ready to cheer them on.

Unlike usual, Liang Zhirou’s expression was somewhat heavy.

Because when Chen Lu asked, the five spots in his class had already been booked.

He was also a little shocked when he learned this news, after all, he had been saying just a second ago that no one would go to this kind of event.

Previously, for all kinds of evening parties, the counselor had to forcibly arrange people to make up the numbers.

He couldn’t figure out why it was so popular this time.

Liang Zhirou was very conflicted, silently pinching her fingers.

As Lin Miaomiao’s good friend, she had to go see the drama club’s performance, but if Chen Lu couldn’t go…

She couldn’t bear to let Chen Lu stay alone and lonely.

But Chen Lu was like nothing had happened, smiling and chatting with this group of social phobes.

After chatting with a group of people, he saw Liang Zhirou’s low spirits and vaguely guessed the silly girl’s thoughts, and his heart warmed inexplicably.

“Why are you unhappy? Because I can’t go?” Chen Lu asked, leaning towards her.

The girl softly hummed, her voice a little low.

It was one thing that Chen Lu couldn’t go with them, but the other part was that Chen Lu was like nothing had happened…

It made her a little worried that Chen Lu wouldn’t be willing to go with her.

“You’re silly,” Chen Lu said lightly, “I don’t care because I have plenty of ways to get around it.”

“Go and talk to your classmates, see if there’s anyone who doesn’t really want to go,” Lin Miaomiao also came over and said something stupid.

Chen Lu glanced at her, thinking to himself, my dad teaches here, do I need to go out of my way to offend people?

However, he didn’t intend to go to Chen Guanglin for such a small matter.

“Just go and talk to the counselor, why go through so much trouble.”

Hearing this, Lin Miaomiao and Liang Zhirou were stunned, obviously not expecting this kind of operation.

You know, their counselor was incredibly fierce, even refusing to let them take leave.

Soon, the three of them arrived at the door of Chen Lu’s counselor’s office.

He knocked twice on the door, looked at Liang Zhirou and Lin Miaomiao after opening the door, and then went straight in.

“Teacher, hello.” Chen Lu went in and was stunned, saying, “You dress like this, people will think you’re a student.”

The counselor rolled her eyes at him, but she was still pleased to hear the compliment. She picked up her pen and was about to write him a leave note.

She wasn’t much older than these students, so she wasn’t as rigid in her interactions with them. Chen Lu was often called by her to help, so basically, Chen Lu could get a leave note as soon as he arrived.

Chen Lu was speechless and quickly stepped forward to explain, “I’m not here to ask for leave.”

“Then what are you here for?”

“The spots for our class to go to the evening party have been confirmed, right? I also want to go and see it, can you add me one, anyway, there are so many people, one more or one less won’t make a difference.” He said with a smile.

The counselor paused for a moment, then gave him a strange smile, “I knew you would definitely go.”

After all, Mo Yuqing’s name was on the list of performers for the evening party.

Even the counselor knew that Chen Lu liked Mo Yuqing.

When they were freshmen, Mo Yuqing felt curious and wanted to run for class monitor, and Chen Lu worked hard for it.

Later, Mo Yuqing started to feel tired, and Chen Lu simply took over all the things the class monitor had to do, just letting Mo Yuqing experience the feeling of being class monitor.

He was incredibly doting.

And Chen Lu was also really capable, if Mo Yuqing wanted to experience the position in the student union, he could probably get it done.

As a young woman who had just graduated with a master’s degree, she actually yearned for and envied this kind of love.

Now it was Chen Lu’s turn to be confused, because he didn’t understand at all.

She said again, “That’s easy, if you have anything else, just go, if not, help me record these files.”

Chen Lu looked out, “I do have something! I won’t disturb you.”

The counselor looked up and saw Liang Zhirou and Lin Miaomiao peeking curiously at the scene.

Lin Miaomiao wasn’t afraid of being seen, but Liang Zhirou quickly walked away.

Chen Lu suddenly noticed the strange gaze, turned his head and saw the counselor staring at him with displeasure.

“Xiao Lu, you have to be a loyal person,” the counselor said after looking at the program list.

？？？？

……

Chen Lu went out in a daze, still thinking about what the counselor meant by that.

As soon as he went out, Liang Zhirou and Lin Miaomiao came up to him.

“How is it? Did your counselor agree?” Lin Miaomiao asked anxiously seeing Chen Lu’s serious face.

Liang Zhirou saw Chen Lu’s expression and her heart sank, clutching her clothes tightly.

“Solved.”

Lin Miaomiao, who hadn’t held out much hope, was shocked to hear this. Could someone actually make a creature like the counselor so easygoing?

That’s absurd!

Then she thought of Chen Lu, and it felt more normal.

But she still rolled her eyes at Chen Lu, “Then why are you frowning?”

Chen Lu thought for a moment, looked at Lin Miaomiao, and joked, “I have to keep my distance from you, so that others won’t misunderstand that I’m stepping on two boats.”

Lin Miaomiao was about to explode, pointing at Liang Zhirou, “You don’t have to with her, right?”

Liang Zhirou seemed to understand, and lowered her head shyly.

Chen Lu nodded slightly, deliberately putting on a serious expression.

“Go die!!”

A very loud shout echoed in the corridor.

……

That night.

The group of them squeezed into the Jiannan Auditorium, found their seats and sat down.

The huge stage was crowded with people responsible for recording, and many of them had TV station signs hanging in front of them.

All the seats around were full, a sea of people.

This was much bigger than Chen Lu had expected.

No wonder the counselor didn’t need to choose lucky people to make up the numbers this time.

Liang Zhirou seemed to have never seen such a grand scene before, she sat blankly next to Chen Lu, her gaze attracted by the stage and the colorful lights in front of her.

She watched the novel scene, Chen Lu watched the silly girl, and it continued like this until the opening.

At this moment, Chen Lu suddenly felt his shoulder being patted, he turned his head and saw Jiang Chao sitting next to him, he didn’t know when he changed seats.

To his right was his girlfriend Liu Yan.

“Yo, here to watch the evening party?” Chen Lu asked.

“Yeah, what are you here for?” Jiang Chao replied.

Liu Yan couldn’t stand it anymore, she said angrily, “You two are telling jokes here?”

She then saw Liang Zhirou sitting next to Chen Lu, she was slightly stunned, didn’t say anything, and didn’t take the initiative to greet her.

Chen Lu saw Liang Zhirou lowering her head and not daring to speak, so he simply didn’t introduce her.

“It seems like this evening party is divided into two halves, the first half is for the officials to watch, the people on stage are also people who have made a name for themselves after leaving this school, and the second half of the program is all prepared by the students in school.” Jiang Chao whispered.

Chen Lu listened and thought it was quite magical, he inexplicably felt it was quite humane, better than rigidly performing those pretentious programs.

As a matter of fact, Jiang Chao was right, the first half was incredibly boring.

Although the silly Liang Zhirou was still watching seriously, Chen Lu and Jiang Chao were about to fall asleep.

By the time the second half started, Chen Lu was already asleep.

At this time, Jiang Chao suddenly patted his shoulder.

“What are you doing?”

Jiang Chao pointed to the stage, “Li Sinian is the host! This b didn’t tell us before!”

Chen Lu woke up from his nap, rubbed his eyes, “Damn, it really is.”

On stage, Li Sinian and an unfamiliar girl were hosting together, they were quite professional.

But their enthusiasm only lasted for a while, and soon they felt bored again.

It wasn’t until the drama club came on stage that Chen Lu sat up straight.

The effect of everyone’s hard work in rehearsals was evident, in just a minute or two, they attracted everyone’s attention.

This was the best show so far, no contest, even the people in the front row who were responsible for recording became more serious.

Chen Lu leaned towards Liang Zhirou, and whispered in her ear, “Do you think it’s good?”

The girl nodded, “I’ve never seen…”

He looked at her serious and curious cute appearance, and couldn’t help but smile.

But thinking that the silly girl in front of him hadn’t actually seen much of the world, he felt a little heartbroken.

A few minutes later, Liang Zhirou leaned over, took out a bottle of mineral water from her canvas bag, unscrewed it for him, and asked softly, “Are you thirsty? I brought you water…”

Chen Lu had just taken it, when he was almost splashed by Jiang Chao.

“Are you never going to stop!” He scolded softly.

Jiang Chao didn’t turn to look at him, he was still looking at the stage, he patted him while muttering:

“Mo Yuqing…”
