Chapter 6 Touch Her and You're Dead 1
The next evening, only a wall lamp in the entrance hall was on in the living room. In the dim light, the sofa, table and all the chairs stood there desolately.
Xu Zhe sat at Su Han's door. She had spent an hour getting dressed just to dance with Zheng Hao. He didn't know what was playing on the computer in the room, but the noisy chirping made him feel annoyed.
After a while, Su Han finally opened the door.
The afterglow of the setting sun suddenly illuminated a girl wearing a white off-shoulder dress, with her long black hair draped straight over her shoulders. He was immediately frightened.
"You...what were you doing just now?" Xu Zhe asked in surprise.
Su Han tugged at the hem of her skirt and smiled unnaturally: "I... I just learned how to put on makeup from an online video. What do you think?"
"Haha, it turns out that strange sound just now was a makeup tutorial!" Xu Zhe laughed.
But she looks really good in this skirt, pink and white, like a pretty little rabbit...but the skirt is too short!
Xu Zhe coughed twice and said, "Su Han, are you going to wear this to the social gathering?"
Su Han nodded carefully: "Yes, this is the only evening dress I have."
Xu Zhe said firmly: "No, I will go with you to buy one, this one is not good!"
Su Han was anxious. There was no time left. Where else could he buy it?
"Why is it bad? I think it's very suitable!"
"This way everyone will be looking at you!"
Su Han had a look on her face that said "what kind of a bullshit excuse is that?" and refused to listen to his advice. "Okay, okay, please! I have to perform on stage later . If I don't leave now, I'm going to be late!"
No wonder I heard her practicing singing in her room two nights ago. It turns out she has a performance today! She can’t dress like that!
Xu Zhe finally couldn't help it: "The neckline is too big! Sew it up! If you don't know how, I'll help you! Anyway, I won't allow you to go on stage like this!"
…
After a long time, the sun finally sank below the horizon and they finally set off.
Across the street from the Hyatt Hotel where the social gathering was held, there gathered a group of young boys in suits and ties.
Su Han saw Zheng Hao at first sight. Under the bright lights, the mature and tall Zheng Hao was particularly conspicuous. Unlike all the times before, he was wearing a formal suit today, and even had a faint smile on his face. He was still handsome, elegant and mature.
Xu Zhe sent Su Han to Zheng Hao.
Xu Zhe looked Zheng Hao up and down and found that Zheng Hao looked much more handsome in a suit compared to his usual sporty outfit. Xu Zhe's face became heavy.
After saying hello to Zheng Hao, several people went to the venue to find Xu Zhe's dance partner, Li Su. But when they saw her, everyone looked at each other, especially Xu Zhe, whose face became even more gloomy.
I don’t know how, but Li Su and Qin Mumu actually met each other. Wherever they are, it’s like an explosion zone!
"How could Xu Zhe choose you as his dance partner? I don't believe he would choose you."
Li Su, wearing the champagne-colored dress, stuck out her tongue at her and said, "What's the point of you not believing it? The fact is the fact. If you have the guts, hit me."
"I'll beat you!"
"Ahhh! How dare you pull my hair? I got it permed early this morning! Hey, if you don't let go I'm going to kick you!"
The scene was so heated that before Su Han could stop them, the two young ladies had already escalated from a quarrel to a fight, and the audience nearby couldn't even pull them apart. By the time the fight was over, Li Su and Qin Mumu's hair was messy and their dresses were torn in several places.
Qin Mumu's face turned pale, she snorted coldly, and unwillingly got into the car driven by the driver and went home. Li Su also had a sad face, repeatedly told Su Han to behave well, and left early in a dejected manner. Su Han subconsciously looked, but found that Xu Zhe had disappeared without a trace, he was indeed cunning...
The auditorium of the fraternity was decorated like a big music box, with countless crystal chandeliers hanging from the ceiling and the walls covered with all kinds of exquisite stickers. Beside the huge purple stage, Su Han and several other people were nervously waiting to perform on stage. In fact, she was pulled in temporarily to make up the numbers because not enough people had signed up to perform.
When she arrived at the scene, she found out that the host for today was Wen Ya. Su Han looked at her standing on the stage, wearing an elegant dress and talking and laughing freely. For some reason, she felt a little worried. Behind the curtain backstage, she glanced out and saw Zheng Hao standing out from the crowd. He was also looking at her. When she met his eyes, Su Han calmed down a lot.
But where did Xu Zhe go? Why did he disappear without a trace?
Xu Zhe didn't like such crowded scenes, because every time there would be many eyes looking at him, which made him uncomfortable. He came here only because of Su Han's request, so after Li Su "died before accomplishing his mission", he actually breathed a sigh of relief and wandered outside the hall.
He looked at the bright moon in the distance, feeling a little melancholy and helpless.
Finally it was Su Han's turn to perform. The song she prepared was "Little Lucky". The accompaniment was great and the lighting was nice too, but for some reason, the first sentence she sang turned into a weird noise, as if someone was deliberately making fun of her.
"I heard the raindrops falling on the green grass..."
"Crack—move this way and hit it again, move this way and hit it again..."
Suddenly, a heavy metal accompaniment sounded from the speakers, turning this pure and moving song into a completely weird and funny tune. Combined with Su Han's confused expression, the contrast made people laugh.
Su Han stood there in a daze with the microphone in her hand. Everyone in the audience was staring at her and laughing. This was the most humiliating moment she had ever encountered. She had no idea what to do.
"Hey, beautiful, what's going on? Are you here to make fun of me?"
Just when she heard a burst of "hush" and wanted to leave the stage, two people stepped onto the stage. One was Xu Zhe, who had a very bad face, and Zheng Hao also rushed onto the stage with him.
Xu Zhe replied to the boy coldly: "What are you talking about? If you can't speak, just shut up."
The boy felt really humiliated, especially in front of his female companion. He wanted to say something but was stopped by his friends.
"Hey, are you crazy? That's Professor Xu Zhexue!"
"Yes, yes, just say less and don't provoke him!"
…
Xu Zhe is an undoubted celebrity in the Academy of Fine Arts. Everyone has heard of his famous name. It is said that he had a verbal battle with a senior on his first day at school, scared the teacher so much that he dared not draw in his professional class, and he ran the most successful band in the Academy of Fine Arts. He is also really handsome! Although everyone knows that he is usually very friendly and easy to talk to, it is still better to avoid him.
Xu Zhe pulled the embarrassed Su Han to his side, and Zheng Hao's face suddenly tensed.
"Xu Zhe, Su Han is my dance partner, what do you mean by holding her hand?"
Zheng Hao is also very famous in HKUST - the most handsome basketball team captain in history. Seeing him jump onto the stage, many people in the audience got excited. The scene of the two handsome guys confronting each other is really pleasing to the eye, but now it seems that the situation is really complicated!
"Since you can't protect your dance partner, let me protect her!"
