Chapter 1129: Performance As A Memento
If it were not for the fact that he was stuck in the army, he would want to accompany them personally.
At seven o’clock sharp, the banquet in the auditorium officially began.
The choir performance that Jiang Yao participated in was eighth in the program. It was not very early, nor was it very late. It could be considered as a bit of luck.
When Jiang Yao first went on stage as a representative of the freshmen, she was not that nervous. She was not the lead singer for that choir performance, but she was so nervous that her palms were sweaty.
At that moment, she really wanted to take Lu Xingzhi outside and beat him up.
Jiang Yao was nervous while she was backstage, but Lu Xingzhi was the exact opposite. He was looking forward to it.
After the host announced Jiang Yao’s performance, Lu Xingzhi immediately ran to the first row with his camera. He looked at the Chief, then casually stood in front of the Chief with the camera in his hand. He turned around and said, “I’m just going to take two photos and sit back down. I won’t keep you from watching the show, Chief.”
The Chief was dumbfounded.
The man sat there and observed Lu Xingzhi’s body until the end of the show. When Lu Xingzhi was about to leave with the camera in his arms and a smile on his face, the Chief said, “You took quite a long time to take two photos. You must have made your wife look like a fairy, right?”
“That is a choir. Just listen to it with your ears. After all, your wife is not on stage, Chief,” Lu Xingzhi replied firmly. “My wife is a celestial immortal.”
After he finished speaking, he carried his precious camera and strode away from the stage. As soon as he left, the Chief laughed. “So he’s the only one in the world whose wife is a celestial immortal!”
Commissar Wang chuckled. The Chief’s leniency toward Lu Xingzhi could be said to be indulgent. However, if it were anyone else in front of the Chief, they would not have done such a thing.
The man had blocked the Chief’s line of sight for the entire program duration just to take a few photos of his wife on stage. He even boasted shamelessly that the Chief could listen to the choir with his ears.
Others might not know how Jiang Yao was arranged to go on stage, but Commissar Wang knew very well that Lu Xingzhi had acted selfishly. He just wanted to see his wife’s appearance on stage. To achieve that goal, Lu Xingzhi had used many methods.
Jiang Yao had just changed her clothes when she left backstage. Then she saw Lu Xingzhi at the entrance; he was waiting for her. Many people were still changing their clothes, so Lu Xingzhi did not go in to wait for her.
“Are you hungry?” That was the first sentence Lu Xingzhi said when he saw Jiang Yao leaving the stage. He did not praise her for singing well, nor did he compliment her makeup and clothes. Instead, he asked her if she was hungry.
That man was too practical. He only cared about her food and clothing.
However, he was also the one who got her onto the stage. Fortunately, Jiang Yao felt that she could handle that performance, so she did not give Lu Xingzhi any troubling expression. Instead, she took the camera in his hand out of curiosity and asked, “How long will it take for the photos to be developed?”
“I’m not free right now. It’ll probably take another year,” Lu Xingzhi said. “I’ll send a copy to your school after it’s developed.”
Jiang Yao nodded and followed Lu Xingzhi back to his seat to watch the other performance. It was probably because of her feelings for the army. Compared to the Arts and Crafts Regiment performance, Jiang Yao realized that most of the people in the military were looking forward to the performance as well.
Mrs. Zhu’s flute solo amazed many of the audience, and the children’s dance also made everyone laugh happily.
