207: You are such a reserved young lady!
“Jiang Che, let me introduce you. This is my best friend, Chu Yuechan, the eldest daughter of the Chu family…”, “Yuechan, this is Jiang Che, you’ve heard of him.”
Xia Qingge introduced them to each other.
“Jiang Che, hello…”
Chu Yuechan blinked her large eyes, a hint of slyness flashing within them, and actively extended her right hand, curiously sizing up Jiang Che.
So this is the Young Master Jiang that Qingge can’t stop thinking about?
Hmm… aside from anything else, this face is truly handsome, it easily makes people feel good about him.
During high school, all three of them attended First Middle School, just in different classes.
Chu Yuechan had long heard of Jiang Che, but they had never met.
“Hello…”
Jiang Che also extended his right hand and shook Chu Yuechan’s, a brief touch and then separation.
Having prior knowledge of the ‘Fierce Dragon Descends the Mountain’ plot, Jiang Che already had a good understanding of Chu Yuechan’s personality.
He knew that this eldest daughter was far from as easygoing as she appeared on the surface; she was a complete tsundere golden retriever, full of an eldest daughter’s temper, spoiled and willful.
During the time Lin Yi, that blockhead, came down the mountain to be Chu Yuechan’s bodyguard, he was often deliberately tormented by this eldest daughter.
Such a personality was completely opposite to Xia Qingge.
Xia Qingge was easygoing, kind to others, and graceful, without much of an eldest daughter’s airs, which was why she was given many titles, including ‘Dream Goddess’.
After sitting down, Xia Qingge glanced at Jiang Che and asked curiously.
“Jiang Che, will you be performing on stage at this year’s Freshmen Welcome Gala?”
They had been classmates for all three years of high school, and in her memory, Jiang Che seemed to rarely participate in such group activities, and never performed singing or dancing.
“No… What about you?”
Jiang Che gently shook his head, his gaze calm, and he boredly surveyed the surrounding environment, searching for the protagonist’s figure.
Occasions like the Freshmen Welcome Gala were stages for the protagonist and various heroines to shine, and Jiang Che had little interest.
After all, he was already famous enough at Lin University and didn’t need to accumulate prestige through such means.
Based on Jiang Che’s understanding of the Son of Destiny, Ye Tian would definitely attend tonight’s Freshmen Welcome Gala.
At that time, he definitely had to make that guy make a big fool of himself!
Hmm… he was determined to make Lin Tian the Sixth Talent of Linjiang!
“I’ve prepared a talent performance, it’s a piano piece…”
“After your guidance last time, I feel that my understanding of ‘adeline of the watery shore’ has deepened, and I should achieve good results this time!”
Xia Qingge gently pursed her red lips, her eyes smiling, and when she smiled, two dimples appeared on her pretty face, bright and charming, extremely beautiful.
Jiang Che wasn’t very interested in these things, but Xia Qingge was the complete opposite, very enthusiastic, having participated in countless talent activities since childhood.
After receiving Jiang Che’s guidance last time, she had an epiphany, and through continuous diligent practice recently, she could clearly feel her skill gradually improving.
The more this happened, the more Xia Qingge admired Jiang Che.
She had practiced hard for many years to barely reach her current level, often priding herself on it, believing no one among her peers could match her.
But Jiang Che had truly taught her a lesson.
Although he usually kept a low profile, Jiang Che’s piano mastery was far superior to hers, truly a hidden master.
Such a low-key, reserved, cultured, and talented man was truly captivating.
In Bai Huamei’s eyes, Jiang Che was a dark-bellied, cunning, insidious, and evil hypocrite. In Liu Mengxi’s eyes, Jiang Che was the most handsome, best, best, best brother in the world.
In Xia Qingge’s eyes, Jiang Che’s impression was somewhat like a perfect male god, almost beyond reproach.
“I think so too, you can definitely do it…”
Jiang Che nodded in affirmation, a smile on his face that made people feel like they were bathed in a spring breeze, his praise unreserved.
Xia Qingge’s piano skill had already reached a master level, which was extremely impressive.
Even looking at the entire new generation in Dragon Country, she was among the top, and she was bound to shine brightly at this Freshmen Welcome Gala.
“Really?”
“Thank you for your recognition…”
Learning is endless, and the skilled are teachers.
In Xia Qingge’s heart, Jiang Che was not only a peer but also a senior, a teacher.
Being able to receive Jiang Che’s recognition, Xia Qingge naturally felt extremely pleased and delighted.
[Xia Qingge’s heart bloomed with joy, emotion value +6767…], [Chu Yuechan was speechless, emotion value +5656…]
Watching Xia Qingge chatting animatedly with Jiang Che, Chu Yuechan rolled her beautiful eyes, feeling a surge of speechlessness inside.
Dignity!
Where is your dignity as the eldest daughter of the Xia family?
She said she didn’t have a good impression of Jiang Che, but if she didn’t, how could they be chatting so heatedly?
Tsk, what a woman who says one thing but means another!
……………
Time slowly passed, and it was soon close to nine in the evening. Once all the students had arrived, the Freshmen Welcome Gala officially began, and a vibrant senior sister went on stage and started her speech.
“Hello everyone, I am Wang Xiaomeng, the host of tonight’s gala…”
“It is an honor to meet all of you on this occasion.”
“First, let us give a warm round of applause to the leaders of our school…”
By the time the formalities were over, it was already more than ten minutes later.
The first to perform on stage were two boys from the journalism department, who immediately performed an impromptu crosstalk routine, making the audience burst into laughter, with continuous cheers and merriment.
Jiang Che was watching boredly when he received another message from Chen Xuewei.
[Brother Che, have you arrived at the gala yet?]
[I’ll be performing soon, will you see it?]
This time, Chen Xuewei didn’t address him as ‘Senior’, but chose a more intimate address.
[Of course, I can. Go for it, you can do it.]
Jiang Che smiled oddly, quickly typed, and replied.
It seemed this energetic beautiful girl had developed quite a good impression of him because of Lin Tian’s foolish move last time.
Otherwise, Chen Xuewei wouldn’t have sent him such a message right before going on stage; this was an extremely ambiguous signal.
[Mm-hmm, thank you, Brother Che!]
In a seat relatively far away, seeing Chen Xuewei constantly holding her phone and giggling, seemingly chatting with someone, Liu Mengxi blinked her large, watery eyes and asked curiously.
“Senior Sister Xuewei, who are you chatting with?”
“Did you get a boyfriend?”
“Cough cough…”
“Nothing, just a good friend…”
Chen Xuewei coughed twice, her eyes darting around, her tone incredibly guilty, and she quickly turned off her phone, afraid that the Little Loli in white stockings would see the chat content on her screen.
Seeing Liu Mengxi’s innocent and cute appearance, Chen Xuewei felt a pang of shame inside…
Mengxi is so good to her, how could she secretly chat with her boyfriend?
She was truly despicable!
“Is that so…”
Liu Mengxi pondered thoughtfully, but didn’t ask anything more, obediently sat back down, swinging her white-stockinged legs, and began to concentrate on watching the performance on stage.
She couldn’t control which boy Chen Xuewei chatted with.
Anyway… it couldn’t possibly be her good brother, right?
