The match-making program progressed very smoothly. Thinking back on the days when he just entered school, Wang Zheng and the others had also organized such activities. It was at that time that they got to know Zhang Runan. Everyone still remembered how they avoided her. This memory brought back smiles.
Their targets were freshman girls. They were very lively and cute. Yao Ailun and Yan Xiaosu were the ones who were directing the whole match-making program. The two of them chatted and made the girls laugh. Wang Zheng was also very happy. This was very lively. At least on the surface, he seemed to have fit in.
After eating, under the strong request of Mi Ya and the group of girls, everyone decided to go for karaoke.
Actually they were quite helpless. There were 4 of them on their side and of the 4, Chen Xiu had a girlfriend. But Mi Ya brought 7 classmates. There was a ratio of 1 to 2. They could only say that the female freshmen were very enthusiastic and the male freshmen were pitiful.
However they could not blame the girls for being enthusiastic. Yan Xiaosu and Yao Ailun were considered more famous seniors that they could see often. Even though Yan Xiaosu’s family business of producing sanitary pads did not sound too classy but Yan Xiaosu was a good friend and a good classmate. He was quite popular. Yao Ailun was a famous commentator and there were quite a number of girls who liked CT. Of course they mainly liked the handsome pilots, especially in uniform. As for Wang Zheng, his fame was too conceptual and not very relatable, but he was at least someone famous. He had created a series of records and the girls were very enthusiastic towards him as well.
The girls basically did not hog the microphones. Yan Xiaosu did not sing much in the past but now he was a decent singer. In terms of singing, Ailun was comparatively less adept at it. Yan Xiaosu’s performance gained him many points in the hearts of the girls.
Wang Zheng was originally quite happy but singing really was not a good choice because they were mostly love songs. Many of them were Lin Huiyin’s songs. At least for this period of time, he was unable to face them calmly.
“Senior, Senior Xiaosu says you sing quite well, how about 1 song?”Mo Xiaoyu said. She was very interested in Wang Zheng. This seemingly very cool senior was her target. However he seemed to be too low-key. For such an impressive person, how could he be so cowardly?
Wang Zheng smiled and waved his hand. “I’ll pass. Don’t listen to Yan Xiaosu’s boasting.”
Yan Xiaosu was singing to his heart’s content. 2 freshmen who were interested in him took the initiative to dance for him. You had to admit that sometimes, girls were way more courageous than boys.
Wang Zheng had yet to reach the point that he had to find any woman to console himself. However looking at Yan Xiaosu, he lamented. This guy’s change was really quite big. Sometimes he was quite envious of Xiaosu because Yan Xiaosu’s character was not particularly persistent. Most people were like this, but he was not. He had an overly strong self-restraint. Sometimes, he was just punishing himself.
Mo Xiaoyu secretly observed Wang Zheng. She was a little disappointed. The other girls had already stopped paying attention to Wang Zheng. Actually at the start, everyone’s target was Wang Zheng but to be realistic, meeting him in real life could not compare to just hearing about him. Dreams died easily upon exposure.
Wang Zheng looked ordinary. The point was that in everyone’s hearts, he would be domineering. But as they socialized, they realized that he was just an ordinary senior. He was not even as active as Chen Xiu, not to mention Yao Ailun and Yan Xiaosu. With just one glance, you could tell that they were elites.
That meal should be quite expensive. The one paying was Yan Xiaosu. Seeing how he paid easily showed that it was his habit to pick up the tab. But they had to admit that men who picked up the tab were handsome. Yao Ailun made the effort to try to pay but as the leader, Wang Zheng did not even show any intention. After eating, those girls who were originally interested in Wang Zheng started to lose interest. Only Mo Xiaoyu was still persistent. She thought that maybe Wang Zheng was just a low-key person.
But at the KTV, he was just a person who silently listened to songs and drank alcohol. This was such a failure. Was it because she was not attractive enough?
Mo Xiaoyu was still quite confident in her looks. She felt that she held herself well. Her family background was good too. She dressed very appropriately today, showing off her snow white skin. And for this match-making program, she maintained a good condition. She never had a boyfriend and after entering university, she was determined to find a satisfactory boyfriend. Her first relationship had to be serious and beautiful so as not to leave regrets.
“Xiaoyu, how about you sing 1 song? Xiaoyu is the number 1 in our freshman singing competition!” Mi Ya pulled Mo Xiaoyu up.
Mo Xiaoyu stood up confidently. “Mi Ya, you shouldn’t have said that. You should first say that I sing terribly then when I sing well, there will be more applause.”
“Xiaoyu, you are so confident. There’s no need for that. If you are really as good as Mi Ya says, I will personally support you to do a campus concert.” Yan Xiaosu said.
Instantly everyone started to cheer. Mo Xiaoyu smiled, and took one glance at Wang Zheng. Any normal man would have some reaction at this moment, no matter what. This Yan Xiaosu was also overdoing it. He knew that she was interested in Wang Zheng yet made such obvious advances towards her.
But there were no reaction at all from Yao Ailun and Chen Xiu. Was their relationship so good or at the start, Wang Zheng was simply a coward?
Mo Xiaoyu was really disappointed but her singing did not disappoint anyone. She was pretty, her voice was even better. It added a lot of points for her. This “Escape” by Lin Huiyin was sung with at least an 80% similarity to the original.
After singing, Yan Xiaosu took the initiative to gift flowers to her. Everyone else started cheering and clapping. Closely followed was another love song by Yan Xiaosu.
A signal appeared on Wang Zheng’s Skylink. He was stunned for a moment then he stood up and walked out of the room. Mo Xiaoyu thought briefly and followed him. She heard that he had no girlfriend. His few good friends were all here. Other than his girlfriend, which other person would be looking for him at this moment?
He walked so far… He was really afraid of someone else seeing.
Mo Xiaoyu also did not know why she had followed him. When they have not met, Mo Xiaoyu gave Wang Zheng 90 points. Based on a girl’s intuition, she thought that he would be an extremely good catch. But until now, Wang Zheng had dropped from 80 to 70 points. If not for his accomplishments, he would be near to failing.
Wang Zheng opened his Skylink and Lin Huiyin’s image appeared.
“Brother Zheng, I want to open a concert at the Solar System next month, can I look for you then?”
Lin Huiyin said cautiously. Her small hands twisted together.
Wang Zheng looked at Lin Huiyin and sighed lightly. “Is she alright?”
“Sister… She looks ok from the surface but I know she’s devastated.”
Wang Zheng struggled for a while in his heart. He knew that at this point he had to be decisive. He had to be ruthless.
“Your highness, not meeting is better than seeing each other. The Solar System does not suit you.” Wang Zheng really felt that he was really quite ruthless sometimes. At least under Bonehead’s training, his acting skills were good.
The moment he turned off the Skylink, Wang Zheng had already seen Huiyin’s big eyes filling up with tears. A short pain was better than long torment.
Turning back, he realized that not far away, Mo Xiaoyu was staring at him with her jaws dropped. Wang Zheng actually was careless, based on his vigilance.
Wang Zheng smiled slightly, and walked over. He patted Mo Xiaoyu on her shoulder. “My cousin is a crazy Huiyin fan. Her cosplay is not bad right.”
Mo Xiaoyu did not know how she walked back. Suddenly she understood. This was not 70 points. This was 120, more than full marks.
