She smelled a fragrance of flowers on Wang Dong's body, making her heart flutter.
She somehow felt they were a little like… an old couple?
No, no, no, how could she think this way? She wasn't worthy of such an impressive person. After everything was over, she would return to the past and have nothing to do with Wang Dong anymore.
At the thought of this, she felt her heart hurt.
She didn't want to separate from Wang Dong.
She had yet to tell him that she liked him and loved him deeply!
But was this something she could hope for?
She didn't know anything, and she couldn't even play the bass very well. Could she really do it?
She was conflicted.
A voice inside of her kept telling her that she should already be satisfied for being able to be so close to Wang Dong. After all, given her poor conditions, why would the other party ever like her?
On the other hand, there was also another voice that suggested that it was possible for them to be together. After all, Wang Dong didn't seem to mind and even sang her such a romantic song.
Her heart kept accelerating. She couldn't help but feel happy that Wang Dong had written a song for her.
After all, even Sixia and Junyao didn't receive such treatment.
Previously, she had told Sixia and Junyao about Wang Dong's past since she was familiar with him back then. The relationship between the three of them had improved a lot because of this.
However, even so, she probably still couldn't compare to those two.
In front of them, Zuo Mei felt like a clown.
Panic and fear slowly started to weigh on her.
She hugged Wang Dong tighter and tighter, subconsciously not wanting to separate from him.
Wang Dong almost couldn't breathe.
What was this?
Could it be that Zuo Mei was angry and wanted to kill him?
He stopped what he was doing. What else was there to do after walking around the school?
He racked his brains but couldn't find any relevant information. That's right, apart from work, he was usually doing his missions. How could he know how to flirt with a girl?
Wang Dong wondered what he should do.
Were all his previous efforts going to waste?
"Wang Dong?"
Liang Zongguang walked over with the basketball, and behind him was Ruan Zecheng. "Yo, you even brought a beautiful girl? Who is she? Is this your girlfriend?"
Girlfriend!
Zuo Mei's face turned even redder. She hurriedly waved her hand. "No, no."
"No? When we were playing basketball just now, I heard someone mention a couple wandering around on a bicycle. I was wondering who was being so romantic. It turned out to be you two!"
Ruan Zecheng teased.
Liang Zongguang smiled cheekily and said, "If you didn't say so, we would have thought that you two were a couple! A beautiful woman and a handsome man. You guys sure make a great couple!"
Wang Dong got out of the car and said aggressively, "Zuo Mei is just my younger sister! Where did you guys get all this nonsense from? You gossip all day like some bored housewife."
"What? Are you angry? Hey, you're basically a public figure, alright? Can you blame us? Right, Zong Guang?"
After Ruan Zecheng and Liang Zongguang were pulled here by Wang Dong to do manual labor last time, they realized that they were very compatible with each other, so they often played basketball together. They unanimously believed that with Wang Dong's personality, he might be single until his death. They didn't expect to actually see him flirting with a girl when they were still alive.
Liang Zongguang hid as he said, "That's right! I think he's angry from embarrassment. Perhaps he even wants to silence us!"
"I dare you to stay still until I come over!" Wang Dong said fiercely.
Liang Zongguang said, "Hahahaha! Do you really think we're stupid?"
Seeing the three of them fighting, Zuo Mei couldn't help but smile. Were students from famous universities so childish?
She looked at the amused Wang Dong. So geniuses also had things they weren't good at?
Was she thinking too highly of them?
After chasing away his two good friends, Wang Dong saw her thoughtful expression and said, "The school is also a society. It's not different from the outside world. There's joy and sorrow, good people and bad people, laughter and arguments.
"Everyone has a different life. There's no need to feel inferior just because you're not in school. Your talent in music is something that they can never match in their lifetime."
"Do you understand?"
Wang Dong was right.
Zuo Wei wasn't too bad herself, so why did she have those terrible thoughts?
Although she was bad at studying, she could still sing and play bass!
She heaved a sigh of relief and smiled as she cried.
"Thank you…"
If it weren't for Wang Dong, she would definitely still be living in a daze.
The other party was like a light in her dark world.
Wang Dong wiped away her tears and said, "You still cry as much as before. Don't worry, as long as I'm here, no one can bully you."
Cheating rate: 100%!
"The cheating rate of Zuo Mei has already reached 100%. Congratulations to the host for successfully seducing the other party in seven days. The host is rewarded with 100 points. Because the target already has a good impression of the host before the mission, there's no additional reward."
The next day.
The Welcome Gala officially began.
The chorus that had performed earlier had just finished singing "Red Dust Laughter", stirring up the emotions of the audience below. After it ended, thunderous applause immediately sounded.
The music teacher, who had his hands crossed in front of his chest, looked proud!
He couldn't help but feel that the students he taught were comparable to the choir of music academies.
The contestants that performed before the choir were nothing compared to them.
At most, they were only appetizers. He would definitely win this time!
The most popular award was definitely his.
He glanced at Wang Dong and the girl beside him, who were about to go up to perform. Looking at the girl, he wondered where Wang Dong found this second-rate performer. He sneered in disdain and felt that geniuses should stick to what they were good at. If he had decided to recite literature, he might had stood a chance.
But when it came to music…
Heh, he simply felt that the other party was courting humiliation!
Zuo Mei didn't notice his gaze at all. She was trembling nervously. This had never happened before. Was it perhaps it was because there was a group of elites sitting below?
Seeing that she couldn't calm down, Wang Dong held her hand and said, "Just follow my rhythm after you go on stage. No matter how impressive they are, they're still just mortals like us."
She took a few deep breaths. The geniuses among geniuses were already standing beside her. So what was there to be afraid of?
"Alright!"
The female host held the microphone and said, "Then, next, please enjoy the music performance brought by Wang Dong and Zuo Mei."
The stage instantly turned pitch-black.
There were also discussions below the stage.
"What's going on? Wang Dong knows how to sing? This isn't going to be a disaster, right? I don't want my ears to be tortured."
"Speaking of which, I don't think we've ever heard the first year genius sing or play any instruments, right?"
"I think it's fine as long as it doesn't sound bad. After all, we can't expect too much from geniuses. After all, they're not gods. I just hope that Wang Dong's performance won't be too outstanding. Otherwise, what are the rest of us boys supposed to do?!"
…
The stage light lit up again. The performance began!
