Chapter 6: Countdown to Loneliness 2
This reunion arranged by Xu Jiarong had no substantial significance for Qing Nuan.
Qing Nuan had never been able to ask about the relationship between Luo Weiwei and Cheng Ge from the beginning. Not only that, Qing Nuan also felt that there seemed to be some misunderstanding that was getting deeper and deeper.
What was wrong? Qing Nuan couldn't figure it out.
When Song Yang heard about it, he was very satisfied with the outcome.
He seemed to be comforting Qing Nuan, but actually he had other thoughts in mind: "Okay, don't think about him all the time. If he is really with Luo Weiwei, just let it go and move on. There are many good men out there!"
Qing Nuan glared at him and didn't bother to pay attention to him.
Xu Jiarong glared at him, too lazy to expose him.
Qing Nuan was at a loss for a moment. She didn't know what to do. She just felt depressed and helpless.
The New Year's Day holiday passed in a flash, Xu Jiarong returned to University A, and Qing Nuan could not see her anymore. Qing Nuan was usually busy studying in class and doing design homework after class, so busy that she had no time to think about Cheng Ge.
She began to learn to escape.
Time seemed to pass slowly, but in a blink of an eye it was February 14th.
As the two key universities in City A, University A and University B have an unwritten tradition.
The tradition is that every year on February 14th, the student unions of the two universities will spontaneously organize a Valentine's Day dance between the two schools. The venue is decided by the students of the two schools through online voting. Finally, the students participating in the dance pay an entrance fee of more than 100 yuan per person to donate the venue fee and the expenses for food, drink and entertainment.
Due to venue limitations, the dance also has a limit on the number of people who can attend. Only the first 1,000 students to arrive are eligible to enter the venue and attend the dance.
As for the donation expenses , they will be supervised by a notary public elected by the two schools. If it is too much, it will be refunded; if it is too little, it will be supplemented by the principals of the two schools.
This is also a measure taken by the two presidents to promote the open school spirit of the two universities.
Valentine's Day can be said to be the favorite holiday for college students. Although this holiday is also despised by single men and women, most people still look forward to it.
You can confess your love on Valentine's Day, and you can also be confessed to.
You can spend Valentine's Day with someone of the opposite sex or with your best friends.
Qing Nuan felt that, from this point of view, she was still happy, because she had a friend of the opposite sex and a best friend to spend Valentine's Day with.
Song Yang had prepared for Qing Nuan long ago and wanted to take her to the dance. Worried that she would refuse, Song Yang told her: "It's not just you and me, Rong Rong will go too. This dance is jointly organized by University A and University B."
Qing Nuan had been in a bad mood these days because of Cheng Ge, so she thought it would be nice to go out and play. Plus, she hadn't seen Rongrong for a long time, so she missed her a little.
Since you are going to a dance, you should dress up no matter what.
Qing Nuan is now able to dress herself very skillfully, wearing a long skirt, a beautiful shawl, a sweet beret, and exquisite and comfortable high heels.
Qing Nuan understood that since it was a joint dance between University A and University B, Cheng Ge would most likely attend.
If Cheng Ge came, Luo Weiwei would definitely be by his side - Qing Nuan had experienced that girl's ability to follow him around as early as high school.
Luo Weiwei's beauty is obvious to all. Qing Nuan knows that she cannot compare to her, but she just doesn't want to lose too badly.
After getting dressed, Qing Nuan put on some delicate light makeup and then went out with her bag.
The venue for the dance was set on the second floor of a music exchange center.
This was originally an open bar, but was later transformed into a music exchange center. The bar counter is still there, and there are still bartenders mixing drinks, while the empty space outside is usually rented out to small bands for performances.
The lights and music are ready for the dance.
Some people even invited a guitarist and a singer to sing on a small stage, creating an ambiguous and warm atmosphere unique to Valentine's Day.
It is said that every year at the Valentine's Day dance, many people will confess their love to the girls or boys they like, and there are many examples of this becoming a legend.
Qing Nuan entered the dance venue accompanied by Xu Jiarong and Song Yang.
When Qing Nuan stepped into the venue, what caught her eye were the couples dancing on the dance floor.
The music is soft and soothing, and the dance steps are light and smooth.
"This ballroom venue is quite nice." Song Yang raised his eyebrows at Qing Nuan. He was originally so careless that he actually bent down and bowed very gentlemanly to invite her. He even spoke in a movie-like tone, "How about this beautiful lady, may I have the honor of inviting you to dance with me?"
Qing Nuan was amused by him, but still waved her hands: "No, I can't dance, it's better not to embarrass myself, you and Rongrong can dance!"
After saying that, Qing Nuan pretended to push Xu Jiarong in front of Song Yang.
Xu Jiarong was not at all pretentious. She lifted her long skirt, made a ladylike gesture of returning the greeting, squinted her eyes, and asked Song Yang with a smile: "How about this handsome gentleman, I wonder if I have the honor to invite you to dance?"
Song Yang was a little helpless, but in this situation, if he pushed Rongrong away, the atmosphere would be very awkward. After all, no matter how familiar and generous Rongrong was with him, she was still a girl, and Song Yang couldn't let her down. He couldn't do such a thing, so he had to bite the bullet, smiled and held Xu Jiarong's hand, and answered in a serious manner: "I'd love to."
Just like that, Song Yang and Xu Jiarong walked into the dance floor hand in hand.
Her hands rested on his shoulders.
His hands rested on her waist.
Even though Song Yang was just doing his job, Xu Jiarong felt that the scene was like a dream.
Come to think of it, from childhood to adulthood, there have been times when Xu Jiarong and him were closer than this, but those times were just like close friends, not like now, which was a real Valentine's Day dance.
It was also the first time that Song Yang held her hand and hugged her waist properly.
As a true lady, dancing is a compulsory course for Xu Jiarong, so even though she looks careless at ordinary times, she actually looks really beautiful when dancing.
Song Yang is usually a sports boy, but sports-loving teenagers often have popular hobbies such as street dance and music. Song Yang has learned street dance and also knows some social dance, so he and Xu Jiarong can dance well.
Qing Nuan looked at the two of them dancing leisurely on the dance floor and couldn't help but smile.
She thought that Song Yang and Rongrong looked extremely compatible. If they could be together, they would be a very pleasing couple.
One is handsome and sunny, the other is sweet and beautiful.
One is a carefree and unrestrained boy, the other is a cheerful and bright girl.
The two of them play together all day long. When they act naughty, they are like hooligans, and when they act serious, they are like princes and princesses - is there a more suitable couple than them?
Thinking of this, Qing Nuan picked up the goblet on the bar and poured herself half a glass of red wine.
Later, when Song Yang and Xu Jiarong had danced enough, they came to Qing Nuan and started drinking and playing finger-guessing games. After playing finger-guessing games, they started playing idiom chain games. Whoever couldn't keep up had to drink a penalty drink. After two hours of lively play, the three of them had happy smiles on their faces, and all their worries were temporarily thrown behind them.
Around 9 o'clock in the evening, the dance party reached a climax.
Qing Nuan heard exclamations from the classmates around her.
"Luo Weiwei is here!"
Qing Nuan followed the sound and looked towards the gate.
Luo Weiwei was wearing a pure white flowing dress, with long, smooth black hair that flowed like a waterfall. She walked into the venue with an elegant step and a beautiful smile on her face.
There is also a handsome boy next to Luo Weiwei.
That boy was none other than Cheng Ge!
