A girl in plain clothes, with a lively sparkle on her face, was walking past downstairs carrying a lunchbox, cheerful as a little bird.
She wasn’t a beauty, but there was something about her that made you want to keep looking. That cleverness coming from deep within her was especially endearing.
Wang Peng’s heart instantly jumped to his throat.
“Oh man, I’m in love!”
He didn’t know why, but the girl’s appearance struck Wang Peng’s heart—which had been dormant for over twenty years—like a bolt of lightning.
Wang Peng went crazy, racing downstairs.
“Damn, you almost killed me!” Liu Liang cursed, having no idea what had gotten into that fat guy Wang Peng.
“Holy crap, look downstairs! Wang Pangzhu’s in heat!” Someone shouted, and the guys in the dorm all rushed to look down.
Wang Peng stood across from the girl, rubbing his two chubby hands together nervously, the fat on his face trembling with tension.
The girl held her lunchbox, looking at this fat guy who had suddenly rushed out, completely baffled, with no idea what he wanted.
“Classmate, is something the matter?” The girl tilted her head and asked curiously.
“What a beautiful voice.” Wang Peng was enchanted.
“I—can I ask you to go to the Youth Singing Competition with me tomorrow?” Wang Peng mustered up his courage and got the words out.
After saying it, his little heart was trembling, and he looked at the girl with hopeful eyes, afraid she might say no.
“The Youth Singing Competition? I was already planning to go. I’ve bought my ticket—I’m in the fifth row. Which row are you in? We’re from the same school, so let’s go together then.” The girl smiled sweetly, revealing two adorable dimples.
Wang Peng felt his head explode.
“She didn’t reject me. She really didn’t reject me!” Wang Peng was over the moon.
“Hey, are you okay?” The girl saw Wang Peng standing there alone, grinning like an idiot, and couldn’t help asking with concern.
“Here’s a ticket. Take it. We’ll go together tomorrow.” Wang Peng nervously shoved a ticket into the girl’s hand, then turned and ran back to the dorm.
The girl was bewildered, not understanding why this random guy was so shy.
Besides, she’d already told him she had a ticket. Why was he giving her another one?
She glanced down at the ticket in her hand, and her expression suddenly changed.
“First row!”
It took her a long time to react.
“Hey, classmate, I still don’t know who you are!” But Wang Peng had already run off.
“Holy crap, the fat guy’s got game! He’s learning how to flirt!”
“Not bad taste either. That girl’s got a certain charm.”
“Hey, why’d you run off earlier? Did she reject you?”
As soon as Wang Peng got back, the guys swarmed around him, asking curiously.
“Hahaha, move, all of you move aside. Damn, I’m gonna be in a relationship too!”
Wang Peng plopped down by the computer and opened his hard drive.
“Damn, you fat pig, don’t tell me you couldn’t handle just seeing her. It’s still daytime!”
When the guys saw Wang Peng open his hard drive, they all made dirty faces.
Everyone in the dorm knew what those hundreds of videos on his hard drive were.
“Stop talking nonsense. I’m gonna be in a relationship. I’m gonna have a girlfriend too. I don’t need this stuff anymore, wahaha!” Wang Peng laughed like a madman and clicked delete.
“Damn, you deleted them all? That’s harsh on yourself!” The guys were shocked.
“Pfft, I’m about to enter the practical phase. What do I need these for?” Wang Peng not only deleted them but also emptied the recycle bin with a smug look.
“Wang Pangzi, did she really agree to be your girlfriend?”
“Uh…” Wang Peng froze.
“What’s her name? What department is she in? What year?”
“Uh…” Wang Peng was stumped.
“Did you guys exchange phone numbers?”
“Uh…” Cold sweat dripped down Wang Peng’s face.
“You didn’t ask her name, didn’t get her number, and she never said she’d say yes. What are you so happy about?” The guys looked at Wang Peng like he was an idiot.
“Holy crap, my collection!” Wang Peng let out a heart-wrenching wail. With trembling hands, he opened his hard drive, took one look, and was overcome with agony!
“Damn it, it’s all gone!”
“Hahaha, I’m dying laughing. This Wang Pangzi.” The guys burst out laughing.
Knock knock knock! Suddenly, there was a knock at the door.
Everyone turned around. When they saw who was standing at the doorway, they were all stunned.
“Classmate, can I get your WeChat?” The girl stood at the door, tilting her head.
“Yes, yes, yes! I’ll give you my WeChat, write it down!” The guys shamelessly rushed over.
“Move, all of you move!” Wang Peng charged over and pushed all the troublemakers aside.
The girl burst out laughing, covering her mouth.
“You guys in this dorm are really funny.”
“Ah, yeah, they’re all clowns, so of course they’re funny.” Wang Peng rubbed his hands together and grinned foolishly.
“Haha, you’re really humorous. What’s your WeChat?” The girl stopped laughing and asked Wang Peng.
“My WeChat is…” Wang Peng quickly gave her his WeChat ID.
Ding dong!
Little Witch has requested to add you as a friend.
Wang Peng quickly tapped accept.
“Let’s chat on WeChat later.” The girl waved her phone, gave Wang Peng a smile, and turned to leave.
Wang Peng stared at the girl’s WeChat profile picture in his contacts, grinning so wide he couldn’t close his mouth.
“Damn, how is this a reverse confession?”
“This girl seems nice. How are her standards so low?”
“Even a single guy gets his spring. The world is changing.”
“Look at Wang Pangzi, he’s so happy he’s drooling. Make him treat us!”
“Yeah, Wang Pangzi treats!”
The guys all started egging him on.
“I’ll treat, of course I’ll treat. Tonight, I’m treating everyone to lamb spine hotpot.” Wang Peng waved his hand generously.
The dorm erupted in cheers.
In the practice room, Liu Xinyue was singing softly. The classmates around her all had mesmerized looks, completely immersed in the mood of the song.
It wasn’t until Liu Xinyue finished singing for a while that the students snapped out of it.
“Wonderful, that was amazing!”
“Sister Xinyue, you’re so good! I was completely moved by your singing.”
“Yeah yeah, Sister Xinyue, the feeling in this song rivals Lin Hai back when he was the Singing King.”
“Tomorrow’s champion is definitely going to be Sister Xinyue!”
Listening to her classmates’ praise, Liu Xinyue felt excited too.
After learning from this book, the Moon Palace Immortal Music, her singing level had truly improved so much. It was like night and day compared to before.
If before, Liu Xinyue had eighty percent confidence in winning the championship, now she believed the championship was absolutely in the bag.
“Hmph, you really think singing well is enough to win the championship? How naive…” At the doorway, Zhen Shuang had also been moved by Liu Xinyue’s singing. After snapping out of it, she felt a surge of annoyance.
After muttering under her breath, Zhen Shuang swayed her hips and left in a huff.
“Xinyue, you sang perfectly.” Lin Hai walked over at that moment.
“Thank you, Lin Hai. Being able to improve so much is all thanks to you. Tomorrow, I definitely want my dad to see me win this championship.” Liu Xinyue’s eyes were full of determination.
At the mention of Liu Shan, Lin Hai’s eyebrows shot up.
“Xinyue, it’s time to let Uncle wake up!”
When Liu Xinyue heard this, her body trembled violently!
