49: Chapter 49 Stage Showdown, Chamber Warfare
Jiang Jinyue didn't hesitate: "Then how about dancing or singing?"
"Let's go with singing!" Shen Muyan scrolled across the computer screen: "We already have quite a few dance numbers. This year, to improve the quality of the gala, the school specifically invited some performers from professional institutions to help out."
"Oh, that works."
Tang Luochuan, however, sensed something off and immediately asked: "Professional institutions?"
"Yeah, and a few minor celebrities, though they aren't famous. It's mainly because our school's standard is just average..."
"Heh, professional?" Tang Luochuan repeated the word: "Are there any professional institutions nearby more professional than the Shanghai Theatre Academy?"
"..."
As soon as these words were spoken, a bad premonition arose in everyone.
"Let me see..." Shen Muyan hurriedly clicked on the program details.
The PDF file slowly unfolded.
When the detailed list of special guests came into view, her movements suddenly froze.
Group Dance: "Silk Road Neon Attire"
Performing Unit: Dance Academy of the Shanghai Theatre Academy
Lead Dancer: Su Wantang
Jiang Jinyue leaned closer to the screen, and the moment she saw that name clearly, her back stiffened involuntarily.
"Why did the school invite her?"
Shen Muyan was also a bit awkward: "No wonder she came today. I guess she has a collaboration with the school, so..."
Tang Luochuan 'encouraged' them: "It's fine, I'll go to the kitchen and put laxatives in her food! I guarantee she won't be able to dance well."
"Are you serious?" Shen Muyan's eyes widened: "Don't you dare mess around."
Tang Luochuan looked innocent: "I'm joking... At most, I'll put thumbtacks in her dance shoes."
"Tang Luochuan!" both girls exclaimed at the same time.
Everyone in the class turned their attention over at once.
Tang Luochuan hurriedly waved his hands: "Alright, alright, I won't cause trouble!"
He then said to his classmates: "Study hard! Study hard..."
Jiang Jinyue lifted her chin: "Shen Muyan, I'm signing up! I must sign up!"
"Are you sure you want to sign up for a program?" Shen Muyan felt that the other girl was acting out of spite.
Tang Luochuan said: "She wants to take 'revenge'!"
Jiang Jinyue rolled her eyes at him: "Piano solo. 'Clair de Lune'."
"Debussy?" Shen Muyan's eyes lit up: "This is great! It's completely different from their group dance style!"
Tang Luochuan was thoughtful: "Fan Debiao? Well, the dance style is definitely different!"
"It's Debussy! The French composer!" Jiang Jinyue was so angry she poked his arm with her pen: "Can you be serious for once?"
"Is that so? How was I supposed to know that this Brother Biao is not that Brother Biao..."
The boring self-study session finally ended.
Tang Luochuan drove that Tank 700 and took the two of them back to Jingan Mansion.
The house of over 700 square meters still gave Jiang Jinyue a little shock.
At this moment, she also felt that moving out was a wise move.
Her family had a few properties in the Magic City, and except for the one her parents lived in, the others were all empty.
Moreover, they were far away, and since she started university, she wanted to be independent and didn't want to live with her parents. So she didn't apply for day-student status.
"Oh right, the little gifts I bought for you!" Tang Luochuan had been thinking about his deliveries since he got back.
Several boxes had already been placed in the bedroom by Shen Muyan. They just hadn't been opened yet.
"What is it?" Shen Muyan followed behind, very curious.
Jiang Jinyue walked at the end, looking around at the decor: "The taste isn't bad."
"So if the price is high, it has good taste, right? Ms. Jiang, your taste is just average."
As he spoke, Tang Luochuan walked to the bedroom; the 90-square-meter bedroom was very spacious for three people.
In the afternoon, Shen Muyan had even 'secretly' laid on the bed to rest for a while. Actually, it was mainly to enjoy it.
Tang Luochuan opened the box and took the items out: "Here, a Van Cleef & Arpels clover necklace for each of you. They cost over 80,000 each."
"Uh..." Shen Muyan was genuinely surprised. She reached out to take them and first handed one to Jiang Jinyue: "Yueyue! Take it..."
When the second one was handed over, she held it in her arms.
"Thank you~" Jiang Jinyue said softly: "I like it very much."
Shen Muyan licked her lips and, imitating Jiang Jinyue's calm demeanor, said: "I like it very much too."
"Actually open it, saying you like it without even looking," Tang Luochuan continued rummaging through the deliveries.
The two girls opened the boxes, revealing two exquisite necklaces.
"I'll put it on for you..." Shen Muyan was kind and helped Jiang Jinyue put hers on first.
"Thank you, sister..."
The two girls were getting along harmoniously. Tang Luochuan looked at the deliveries and suddenly a smile appeared on his lips. But it wasn't because of their harmonious relationship. It was because another delivery box had written on it — "Confidential Shipping"! Those who know, know...
"Here, wear these too!" Tang Luochuan handed them two more things.
Shen Muyan's eyes lit up: "Wow, so cute! These are cat ears for cosplay, right? This one is pink, and there's a blue one. Yueyue, which one do you want?"
"Hmm~~ Sister, you choose first..."
"Then I want the pink one!"
"Okay..."
"And this!" Tang Luochuan handed over two cat tails.
"Eh? There's this too?" Shen Muyan took it and held it up against her little perky butt to measure: "It's quite professional."
Tang Luochuan laughed: "Of course, it has to be professional!"
"And this!" The boy didn't turn his head and handed over two more things.
Shen Muyan: "Cat paws, oh..."
"And this..."
"This is... this is..."
The two girls looked at the small piece of fabric in their hands, momentarily not understanding what it was.
"It looks like a bikini," Jiang Jinyue said casually.
Tang Luochuan finally threw one garment to each of them: "Wear this first, later there will be nurse, sailor, wedding dress..."
Shen Muyan stared at the last piece of clothing; it couldn't really be called clothing. It was translucent and skin-tight...
"Tang Luochuan, you... what is this..." Shen Muyan held those pieces of fabric, wanting to question him.
Tang Luochuan interrupted her directly and pointed to the small triangle in Jiang Jinyue's hand: "Jinyue, you were half right! This isn't a bikini, this is a thong."
"Tang Luochuan!!!" Jiang Jinyue felt the thing in her hand burning hot. It was as if her hand had been defiled. She shook it twice and threw it directly onto the floor.
"What are you doing? I spent over 200 to buy 8 pieces!!!"
"I'm not wearing it, how could I possibly wear this kind of clothing?" Jiang Jinyue stamped her feet in anger.
Tang Luochuan picked up the 'clothing' from the floor: "You are no longer a good student!"
"What good student?" Shen Muyan also hurriedly threw the 'clothing' aside.
Hearing the words 'good student', Jiang Jinyue looked at him with an embarrassed expression: "This... this is already at the professor level, right!"
"No, to me, this is just graduate level... haven't even graduated with a master's yet!"
Shen Muyan was dazed listening to this, but she seemed to have accepted it somewhat; after all, the two of them had already had a relationship. Thinking about that kind of thing didn't feel shameful anymore.
