151: Chapter 151 The Party Begins
It was already two in the afternoon when Chen Feng arrived at school.
The Mid-Autumn Festival Gala was set to start at six in the evening, leaving four hours until showtime.
After he parked his car, a prediction video suddenly popped up.
"Hmm?"
After Chen Feng finished viewing the content of the video, a playful expression appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Today's video had truly caught him off guard!
At this moment, Counselor Jin Tian quickly walked over. Her face was somewhat displeased, and she glared at Chen Feng indignantly as she said, "Very well, Chen Feng. I called you at nine this morning; why are you only arriving now?! You... does it take you five hours to take a leak? Do you have urinary incontinence or a urethral infection?!"
Pfft!
Chen Feng nearly spat out a mouthful of blood.
Teacher! You know way too much, don't you?!
Counselor Jin Tian didn't say another word; she grabbed him and headed toward the classroom. "If you had come in the morning, there would still have been a chance to cancel from the list. Now it's too late; all the personnel lists have been posted! It's definitely impossible to withdraw now!"
As she spoke, she seemed to breathe a sigh of relief. "But it's fortunate that only the list of people has been announced; the programs haven't been set yet. Tonight, you can just sing any song. There are still four hours left, so practice more in the classroom. I don't require you to sing well; as long as you don't embarrass our class, that's enough!"
Then, she suddenly turned her head back. "You... you can sing, right?"
"I can. I should be alright at it."
Chen Feng shrugged indifferently.
Anyway, he had the system; couldn't he just purchase a skill?
Counselor Jin Tian finally breathed a sigh of relief.
But at this moment, she suddenly received a message.
Her expression changed abruptly!
"What's wrong, Teacher?"
"Your program has been finalized!"
Counselor Jin Tian looked at him with a strange expression and said, "I don't know who signed you up for the Guzheng, but the piece is 'High Mountains and Flowing Water.' Shall I take you to change it?"
If it were singing, he could still cram at the last minute and practice a bit.
But the Guzheng was different.
It required very strong fundamental skills to complete a performance, let alone the extremely difficult piece 'High Mountains and Flowing Water'!
"It's fine. Let it be the Guzheng."
Chen Feng remained as indifferent as ever.
To him, it didn't matter what the program was, as long as the system could redeem it.
"You..."
Counselor Jin Tian stomped her foot in anger.
She felt that Chen Feng was just giving up on himself.
Yes! That must be what he was thinking!
"No, I must help you change the program. You are representing our entire class. If you mess up the performance, it won't just be your face that gets lost!"
Chen Feng laughed, "This is definitely someone trying to target me. Do you believe it? The matter has already spread; I'm afraid everyone knows I'm going to perform the Guzheng. If I change the program now, others will think I'm a coward. Don't worry, the Guzheng is a piece of cake for me!"
"Really?"
Counselor Jin Tian was skeptical.
...
"Have you guys heard? Chen Feng is going to perform the Guzheng, and the piece is the highly difficult 'High Mountains and Flowing Water'!"
"No way! Even the music department students wouldn't dare to challenge this piece. He's really something!"
"Isn't that so? If it were about picking up girls, I'd definitely admire that kid, but performing the Guzheng? He's really not up for it."
"It's strange. That kid used to show off with money; why has he switched to an artistic style this time? It's not like him, is it?"
"Who knows!"
The crowd chattered away.
Meanwhile, Zhao Donglai, who was nearby, chuckled, "What's so strange about that? His program was filled in by yours truly. The Guzheng, 'High Mountains and Flowing Water'βlet's see how he makes a fool of himself this time!"
"No way, Brother Zhao?"
"What? Can't I fill it in?"
Zhao Donglai snorted coldly, "I don't know who signed Chen Feng up, but for someone like Chen Feng, other than having a bit of money, what kind of talent could he possibly have? Since he's going to embarrass himself on stage anyway, I might as well increase the difficulty for him! I thought for a long time before coming up with this Guzheng program. Haha, wait for the show tonight!"
His grudge against Chen Feng hadn't just started yesterday or the day before.
The first time they met, Chen Feng had ruined his chance to confess and snatched Shang Yanyan away from him.
Later, he had finally tried to show off by playing basketball, only to have it ruined by Chen Feng again!
This time, he finally had a chance to set the guy up.
"Brother Zhao is awesome! I've long been unable to stand that kid Chen Feng. As long as he's at school, we'll never be able to pick up the beautiful campus belles!"
"Damn it, Chen Feng is a scumbag!"
"I hope this time allows the girls to see his true colors as a loser!"
Time ticked away.
The whole school was discussing Chen Feng's situation.
Shang Yanyan and Xiao Mengqi both called Chen Feng to ask about it.
However, the person involved, Chen Feng, remained calm.
Finally, it was six in the evening.
The auditorium at Beihu University was packed.
There were over thirty thousand students in the whole school, but this time only the seniors were attending the Mid-Autumn Festival Gala, since they were about to graduate.
It could be considered their last gala.
In the very front row of the auditorium were basically the school leaders.
Sitting right in the middle was Principal Wu Gang!
Principal Wu scanned the crowd behind him, and soon his gaze landed on one person, and the expression on his face suddenly became strange.
Because just a moment ago, he had seen a member of the War Department!
Last time when Minister Zhang Tianxiang came to the school, this member had been following behind him.
What was going on?
Today was just an ordinary Mid-Autumn Festival Gala.
How could there be someone from the War Department here?!
In that instant, many possibilities flashed through Principal Wu's mind.
Something big was about to happen!
He was shocked!
At this moment, the gala had already begun.
"Next, let's invite student Chen Feng to perform the Guzheng piece 'High Mountains and Flowing Water.' Please welcome student Chen Feng!" the beautiful host said with a smile.
She had heard of Chen Feng's reputation and was very curious.
Was the guy a wealthy second-generation rich kid, or a talented second-generation rich kid?
Chen Feng was also somewhat speechless.
Why was his program scheduled first?
At this moment, Counselor Jin Tian quickly came to his side and asked anxiously, "Chen Feng, have you prepared the Guzheng?"
"No!"
"Then what are you going to use to perform?"
"Isn't the school preparing it?"
"I..."
Counselor Jin Tian's blood pressure rose in anger. "I knew you hadn't prepared. Get on stage quickly; I just went to the Art Department and borrowed a Guzheng! Hmph! This time, regardless of whether you play well or not, you must treat me to a meal!"
"Alright."
Chen Feng really didn't know he had to prepare it himself.
Anyway, he had never participated in a program before.
He slowly stood up and, under the gaze of everyone, walked onto the stage in front.
