Jianghai University's activities involving cultural performances are basically held in He Liang Great Auditorium.
The scale of this auditorium is very large, and the backstage is also very spacious, with a director's room, dressing room, changing room, electronic room, props room, and even a shower room and a lounge.
When Lu Chen came in, there were at least one or two hundred people in the large dressing room, most of whom were students who were going to perform on stage. Many girls in beautiful costumes had put on makeup and gathered in twos and threes to chat and laugh.
Lu Chen has participated in many cultural performances and is no stranger to the backstage of the auditorium. He found a seat in the corner and sat down calmly. He opened the guitar case and took out the guitar. While tuning, he practiced his hand.
His performance in the evening is scheduled for 8: 30, so it's still early.
"Lu Chen …"
Just as Lu Chen strummed the strings and hummed in a low voice, he suddenly heard a soft call from the side.
Hearing this familiar voice, Lu Chen secretly sighed in his heart.
He put down the guitar, turned around and asked, "Wang Ying, long time no see. What's the matter?"
In front of Lu Chen is a girl in a white dress. She is about 1.60 meters tall and well-proportioned. She has an oval face and willow leaf eyebrows. She has long hair and thin makeup. She is quite an outstanding beauty.
Wang Ying, who studied in the Chinese Department of Jianghai University, is also Lu Chen's ex-girlfriend.
Lu Chen's indifferent tone made Wang Ying frown. She hesitated and asked, "Lu Chen, did Cao Xiuzhu tell you? My uncle's company in Hangzhou is recruiting people, and the position is very good … "
"I know, the class monitor has already told me."
Lu Chen interrupted, "Thank you for your kindness, but I plan to develop in the capital, so thank you."
"Lu Chen!"
Wang Ying's eyes flashed a touch of displeasure, and her voice rose a notch: "Can you not be so stubborn, what future do you have in the capital? Even if you don't think for yourself, you have to consider the situation at home, right? "
Her face showed an expression of exasperation at his failure to meet her expectations.
Lu Chen smiled instead. "Wang Ying, it's been so long, but your temper hasn't changed? I don't think we have anything to talk about. "
Wang Ying was not angry. She asked thoughtfully, "Lu Chen, do you still hate me?"
Lu Chen shook his head, got up and said to Wang Ying, "I used to hate him, but now I have figured it out."
"I think even if nothing happened to my family, I'm afraid the two of us wouldn't have been together for long. Plus, I had my own problems back then, so no one needs to blame each other. When we meet again in the future, we'll still be classmates and friends."
Wang Ying looked at Lu Chen in a daze.
Such a rational and mature Lu Chen made her feel very unfamiliar, as if the person standing in front of her was another person.
There is a sense of loss.
After a while, she said in a daze, "Alright then, goodbye."
After that, Wang Ying turned around and left, not very willing.
Lu Chen smiled. He was very clear about Wang Ying's thoughts. It was nothing more than to make up for the guilt of breaking up with him.
But he had nothing better to do. Staying in Hangzhou to get a "very good" job?
As for the entanglement with Wang Ying …
The past can't be recalled. Let the past be the past!
Lu Chen just wanted to sit down again. Suddenly, he felt something was wrong and subconsciously looked to the right.
Just a few steps away from him, there was a beautiful woman with bright eyes and white teeth.
The aqua blue evening gown perfectly accentuated her graceful figure. A pair of insanely straight long legs were casually swaying. Her bright and spirited eyes carried a faint smile, and her exquisite picturesque face was pleasing to the eyes.
She sat there quietly, but the light she emitted was enough to illuminate the darkest corner.
Lu Chen couldn't help but be stunned. "Su Xuan?"
Su Xuan was a very famous figure at Jianghai University. She was the department flower of the Foreign Languages Department. She was a female top student who won a first-class scholarship every year. Moreover, she was versatile in singing and dancing. The number of pursuers was comparable to the number of carps crossing the river.
Lu Chen knew Su Xuan. Of course, there were not many people who didn't know her, but it was only limited to knowing her.
He didn't expect that Su Xuan would hide here alone.
He didn't notice it just now.
In Lu Chen's limited impression, Su Xuan was always surrounded by a few attentive flower protectors.
Su Xuan blinked and said, "Lu Chen, I didn't mean to eavesdrop on you two."
Lu Chen couldn't help laughing. "Sorry, there's nothing wonderful to disappoint you."
Su Xuan chuckled and immediately said, "To be honest, I feel that Wang Ying still has feelings for you."
Lu Chen and Wang Ying, the couple who used to be in love, were also a little famous at Jianghai University.
"Maybe …"
Lu Chen said, "It's all in the past."
Su Xuan understood that he didn't want to talk more, so she changed the topic. "It must be very difficult for you to develop in the capital, right?"
She rarely talked to boys because there were too many crazy bees and butterflies. It was really troublesome to say a few more words and cause others to misunderstand. Tonight, in order to avoid those pursuers, she deliberately ran to the corner of the backstage.
As a result, she accidentally saw a dialogue between a former couple.
Su Xuan had heard a little gossip about Lu Chen before and appreciated his performance just now.
A man should have self-respect, self-improvement and self-confidence.
So she didn't mind chatting with Lu Chen for a few more words. Anyway, everyone will go their separate ways tomorrow.
Lu Chen smiled and said, "It's not easy. It takes a lot of effort. I hope I can succeed."
He asked, "What are your plans after graduation?"
This sentence was probably the most asked among the students today.
Su Xuan said, "I'm going to Wharton Business School to study."
“Wharton？”
Lu Chen exclaimed, "Amazing!"
Wharton Business School was the world's number one business school. It was affiliated with the University of Pennsylvania in the United States. It had a history of hundreds of years and had trained countless business elites and economists.
However, it was extremely difficult to enter Wharton Business School. Lu Chen's sister, Lu Xi, had longed for this famous school, but the reality was that her choice was still a domestic school like Beijing University or Tsinghua University.
Su Xuan was extremely beautiful, and her academic performance was so outstanding that Lu Chen couldn't help but admire her.
Su Xuan smiled and said, "Thank you. If you have the opportunity to come to Philadelphia in the future, remember to have tea with me."
Lu Chen smiled bitterly and said, "I don't even have your contact information."
Lu Chen didn't have the idea of pursuing her, because he and Su Xuan were undoubtedly people from two different worlds.
However, they had a good chat now, so he mentioned it casually.
Su Xuan was very generous and directly gave Lu Chen her QQ number, "Private number, please don't give it to others!"
Lu Chen recorded it in his mobile phone.
Su Xuan got up and said, "It's almost my turn to go on stage. Goodbye, Lu Chen."
Lu Chen also stood up and said, "Goodbye, Su Xuan."
He knew that the two probably wouldn't have many opportunities to see each other again. There was a touch of regret in his heart.
Such a beautiful girl, even if they weren't a couple, it was a great fortune to be friends.
Watching the figure of the other party disappear into the backstage, Lu Chen had just sat down when his buttocks just touched the surface of the chair. Cao Xiuzhu, the class monitor Cao, ran over gasping for breath and complained when they met.
"Lu Chen, why are you hiding here? It took me a while to find you! "
Lu Chen was surprised, "What's wrong?"
Cao Xiuzhu said, "Your performance has to be advanced. The two programs before you need time to prepare, so you are arranged to go on stage after the next program!"
Lu Chen said, "I'm going to faint!"
The university's gala was very random. Of course, large-scale programs had rehearsals and time arrangements in advance, but in case of an emergency, a solo program like his would have to go on stage.
"Don't faint, I'm going to faint!"
Cao Xiuzhu was anxious, "Hurry up and get ready. Do you want me to help you with makeup?"
"No need, no need!"
Lu Chen quickly said, "Help me send this to the director's room first, and wait for me to play it on stage."
He took out the USB from his pocket and handed it to Cao Xiuzhu.
As early as last month, Cao Xiuzhu called Lu Chen and told him about Lu Chen's performance at the gala, so he made a music video early to accompany his performance.
"No problem!"
Cao Xiuzhu took the USB and hurried to the director's room.
Lu Chen exhaled. He turned around and looked at himself in the mirror of the dressing table.
I have to work hard!
