Chapter 23
The seniors of the drama club realized with hindsight and found that Xu Can, who played the role of the dragon, did not come to dinner, so they sent a boy to look for her, and quickly found her in the lounge. called her to dinner.
Xu Can was a little reluctant to go, so he smiled and said, “I’m not hungry yet…”
Tong Mingyue said, “I haven’t eaten yet. Do you want to eat takeaway? I’ll go to the cafeteria and pack something else for you.”
“No,” Xu Can certainly didn’t want to make her work hard, “I’ll go right now.”
Thinking that there is still a long time before the show starts, he asked again, “Then are you…will you be here for a while?”
In fact, she wanted to say whether she could see her when she came on stage.
The drama club is the last show, and she was afraid that Tong Mingyue would leave first. Although she didn’t feel that the moment she took the stage was worth the time she needed to stay.
Tong Mingyue didn’t know whether she understood what she didn’t finish, or what, she just smiled and said, “I will look forward to the little fairy coming to the stage.”
“…”
Xu Can raised his lips in silence.
The word “little fairy” was uttered by her in a gentle and steady voice.
How lethal, I don’t know if Professor Tong is conscious of it.
Xu Can followed the others to the lounge in the hall, and when he opened the takeaway and started eating, he was still a little nervous.
Take a deep breath to avoid giggling.
People around her talk to her in a casual manner, do you have no experience in going on stage? nervous? do not worry…
After dinner, Guo Xiaoya happened to see her when she came in.
“Here?”
“Um.”
Xu Can packed up the finished takeout, stood up, took it out and thrown it away.
Guo Xiaoya followed her out, dragged her to the front, looked up and down at her makeup, and sighed, “It’s beautiful, but I want to persuade you first, you still need to wash your face.”
“I have no intention of not washing my face,” Xu Can spread his hands with a smile, “give me the lipstick.”
“Know what I got?”
“if not.”
Guo Xiaoya returned the three lipsticks she had hidden in her bag, and asked casually, “How is the situation?”
“What can I do, she took her own lipstick and helped me apply it.”
“hey-hey…”
Guo Xiaoya wanted to say, “It’s not what I expected”, but she suddenly paused, caught the keyword and said in surprise, “Do you apply it for you? Did she even apply lipstick for you?!”
Xu Can hummed.
“Xu Cancan, don’t think about confessing tonight.”
Guo Xiaoya smacked her tongue a bit, recalling the impression of having face-to-face conversations with Tong Mingyue several times. It’s too ambiguous, and it doesn’t go well with Professor Tong, who has a cold temperament.
“Professor Tong treats you like that. Either he likes you or he likes you.”
Xu Can didn’t think about it carefully, just hearing this, his whole heart felt like being soaked in hot spring water, and it was a little hot.
After a while, she said, “Not necessarily.”
“Not necessarily? Then you may be her daughter who has been separated for many years, and neither of her own sisters is so fond of her. Which one do you think is more likely.”

The stage lighting was constantly changing, the stage was too bright, and the faces looking down in the same direction were hidden in the dark.
Even so, when Xu Can stood behind the scenes and waited to play, his eyes quickly found where Tong Mingyue was sitting.
She sits in a different position than the others.
Sitting up and down, saying that he is relaxed and relaxed, but he has an indescribable temperament.
The surrounding teachers are all dressed in dark and light colors, and Tong Mingyue wears the most common black coat. One side of the long hair is pinned behind the ear, slightly side-parted, and the curved arc of the tail adds elegance.
Unpolished skin is also whiter than others.
The background music changed suddenly.
Xu Can followed the rehearsal, when the lights were concentrated in the center of the stage, and walked in a slow-paced manner.
She wears a white dress and plays a piano illusion imagined by the hero, so she always has a standard radian smile.
Sitting on the piano bench, holding the grand piano beside him.
The long skirt is actually not very fitting and not delicate enough.
Xu Can has a thin body, and the back waist is still fixed by pins. Fortunately, he is beautiful and can contrast with clothes.
The actor on stage was arguing with his father and turned his back to her.
As soon as Xu Can sat down, his body turned slightly to the right, and his eyes naturally fell in the direction of Tong Mingyue. It was still dark around.
In this way, the fake smile on her face will also become real.
The male protagonist and his parents have to quarrel for a while. Xu Can originally wanted to watch Tong Mingyue silently in this emptiness.
Who knew that as soon as they raised their eyes, their eyes met.
It was clear that the light was not on Xu Can at the moment, but Tong Mingyue’s eyes seemed to be looking at her when she first came on stage. When she met her gaze, she slightly tilted her head and raised her lips and smiled.
Xu Can’s heartbeat accelerated for no reason.
Okay, getting nervous.
The male protagonist began to walk towards her, and after a few exaggerated body movements, he performed his lines: “You know that I want to escape, so see me again? Or, are you here to persuade me?”
Xu Can said the line with a smile, and his tone was as gentle as possible: “Just tell you one sentence.”
“What?”
“As long as you go forward, I’ll be here…waiting for you anytime.”
Xu Can’s sitting position didn’t move, and the senior sister also instructed to face the audience under the stage, so her eyes were still in the direction of Tong Mingyue.
It’s like saying to Tong Mingyue.
Tong Mingyue paused for half a second, lowered his eyes first, then quickly raised his eyes and smiled with his lips bent.
The eyes behind the lens are bright.
After a few seconds, the lights were all dimmed.
Xu Can took advantage of the situation to exit.
The 12-minute stage play was finished quickly. Finally, the two hosts came to the stage and finished the closing speech, and the curtain officially ended. The party is over. There are also students from the student union standing on both sides of the door, holding bamboo baskets, and handing out candy to those who go out.
“My back hurts from sitting,” Li Wei straightened her back, watched the students in the first few rows leave one after another, stood up and said, “Let’s go, I was pulled over to watch the show as soon as we got back. It’s hard work, please have a big meal.”
“Where’s the dinner?”
“I want to eat George’s Burger…” Her eyes were full of bright moon, and her round face showed the gentle plea of a young woman, “But you just came back, don’t you want to see this kind of thing?”
After thinking about it, he said, “Forget about ordinary Chinese food.”
“It’s alright, let’s eat hamburgers. I’ll treat you.”
Li Wei hummed in confusion and looked at her expression, “Why is the mood suddenly so good?” She immediately concluded, “The show is much better than you thought, right? The kids in our student union are amazing.”
Tong Mingyue was noncommittal and said with a smile, “There is indeed a surprise.”

Meanwhile, the other side.
As soon as Guo Xiaoya entered the lounge, she stepped on her high heels and quickly walked to Xu Can’s side: “When I get dressed, would you like to eat roast pigeon? It’s been hard work today.”
“You work harder,” Xu Can raised his lips in a good mood, “I invite you.”
