Rebirth in the 90s: Melting My Devoted Mr. Iceberg
Chapter 1029: Don’t Let Her Escape
With these thoughts, Lu Jintian and Lan Tianyu went downstairs and headed to the auditorium. Because of Lan Tianyu’s special status, when the school leaders found out he was there, they personally welcomed him in and brought him to the front row.
Lu Jintian also benefited from Lan Tianyu’s presence and sat in the front row.
Before they knew it, it was already eight-thirty, and the school celebration was starting at nine. So students were gradually entering the auditorium.
The auditorium of Nan University is quite large, accommodating all the teachers and students of the school.
As more and more classes entered the auditorium, it was soon the turn of Class 983. Lu Jintian immediately spotted Jiang Xue and smiled.
Lan Tianyu had been watching Lu Jintian, and when he saw him suddenly smile, he asked, "Jintian, did you just see a pretty girl?"
"What girl? It’s my sister," Lu Jintian corrected him. He was looking at his own sister, not anyone else. He really couldn’t understand what his friend was always thinking, as if there was nothing but women on his mind.
"Sister? I understand, Sister Qing," Lan Tianyu said with a teasing smile. Lu Jintian glanced at him, speechless, and said, "She’s my real sister."
Lan Tianyu still didn’t get it and joked, "I know, Sister Qing."
"Alright, I’m not talking to you anymore." Lu Jintian saw that Jiang Xue had taken her seat, and only then did he look away.
Soon, the school celebration began, first with speeches from the secretary and the principal. After the speeches, the art performances began. At that moment, students from the student council were distributing the program schedule to everyone.
That’s when Luo Weiwei specifically came over to the position of Class 983 and said to Jiang Xue, "Jiang Xue, aren’t you performing the guqin today? Why haven’t you gone backstage to prepare?"
Luo Weiwei’s arrival attracted a lot of attention, and when they heard her words, everyone’s gaze toward Jiang Xue suddenly changed.
After hearing Luo Weiwei’s words, Jiang Xue smiled, raised the program schedule, and said, "Why rush, Senior? My performance is in the middle. There must be a lot of people backstage right now, so I’d rather not join that hustle. I’ll go up a bit later; it’s not too late."
Jiang Xue’s words made perfect sense, and Luo Weiwei didn’t know how to rebuff her. She only came over because she was afraid Jiang Xue would run away. Now, listening to her, it seemed she had no such intentions. However, she still wasn’t reassured and said, "The backstage is large enough. It wouldn’t be a problem even if five or six more people went there."
Noticing Luo Weiwei’s concern, Jiang Xue smirked internally but didn’t show it on her face, saying, "I appreciate your concern, Senior. I just want to see other performances and broaden my horizons. After all, I’m from the countryside and haven’t seen much before."
"You?" Luo Weiwei was at a loss for words, her expression somewhat unpleasant. However, as the school beauty, she quickly masked her expression and asked, "In that case, I’ll come back later to find you. But you need to let me know what you need for your performance so I can help prepare."
"Sure, thank you, Senior. I don’t need much, just a guqin," Jiang Xue replied with a smile.
"Alright, I’ll help you prepare it, and try to come over earlier." Having said that, Luo Weiwei glanced at Liu Meimei and added, "Liu Meimei, remember to remind Jiang Xue later."
"Yes, Senior, I understand." Liu Meimei agreed with a smile, clearly understanding what Luo Weiwei meant: keep an eye on Jiang Xue and make sure she doesn’t run off.
