Chapter 285 - 285: Collision
Xi Ze raised his chin slightly, pretending to be reserved with a smug expression that could not be hidden. “A debate is a debate, and the lines are from a stage play.”
“The college debate competition and the birthday party clash. The main venue for the debate competition is at the school. The competition committee discussed with the other participating schools and decided to hold the finals in the auditorium.” Xi Ze smiled and said, “The stage play is a performance for the birthday party. I was pulled to fill in the numbers and played a small role as a prince.”
The system looked at Xi Ze, who looked a little proud, and said sincerely: [If Xi
Ze had wings, he would have been in the sky by now.]
Xi Wan nodded. “Are you going to the auditorium now?”
“It’s about time to go over. If you want to take a look, I can bring you over too. I’ll apply for a family seat for you. You’ll be able to see it more clearly when the show starts.” Xi Ze said in a relaxed tone.”
Xi Wan thought for a moment and said seriously, “There are special seats prepared by the school for Su Xun.”
“…” Xi Ze stopped talking.
[Host, look at what you’ve done. He’s angry.] The system said.
Xi Ze’s back was walking straight five steps away from Xi Wan. Every step he took was loud and powerful, as if he was stepping on a pair of super heavy shoes, rubbing against the ground as he walked forward. He did not even turn around to see if Xi Wan was following him.
Xi Wan found Xi Ze’s childish actions very funny and replied to the system,
“He’s obviously happy.”
[Alright, how could I forget that you’re the best at lying through your teeth?] The system rolled its eyes at her.
Xi Wan followed Xi Ze all the way to the school’s auditorium. She had been to this auditorium with Su Xun the last time.
At this moment, the auditorium was filled with people. Many members of the Student Union were confirming whether the guest’s position was correct and whether there were any problems with the seats. Some of the Student Union members were backstage confirming whether the students who had already arrived for the performance had arrived. They were busy confirming the costumes and makeup of the actors who had already arrived.
“Xi Ze! I finally found you!” A boy ran over with a huge pile of clothes. When he saw Xi Ze, he immediately shouted, “Mu Mu wants you to look for her in classroom 201. Your debate team is having a meeting!”
“Got it.” Xi Ze’s reply was as cold as ever.
Xi Wan was sizing up the busy crowd when she heard Xi Ze’s voice. “Let’s go.”
“Go to the debate team with you?” Xi Wan asked him.
Xi Ze nodded.
“I don’t want to go.” Xi Wan rejected him without hesitation. “It’s not good for me to go to your meeting. Besides, I want to experience the aura of youth here.”
“…” Xi Ze finally understood why she was dressed up so youthfully today.
“We’re all young college students.”
“No, it’s too far. I’m too lazy to walk. It’s the most convenient to wait for Su Xun here.” Xi Wan found an empty seat and sat down.
Xi Ze said a few more words in a sincere manner. In the end, when he saw that it was almost time, he could only obediently go to classroom 201 for the meeting.
As time passed, the staff behind the front desk saw that the birthday party was getting closer and closer. They were so busy that they wished they could break it in half.
Xi Wan watched as they busied themselves and helped out with some small things.
Coincidentally, she happened to be sitting next to the place where the mineral water was distributed. Occasionally, the guards would be called away to help, and at this time, she would consciously help to distribute the mineral water.
While Xi Wan was in a daze, she noticed someone walking over. Just as she was about to bend over and give the person a bottle of water, the person called out to Xi Wan in surprise, “Miss Xi?”
Xi Wan looked up in surprise and realized that the person was wearing a white suit that fit him. His hair was different from his usual casual style. Today, there were obvious traces of meticulous care, adding an air of nobility to his already good temperament.
Xi Wan recognized this person. She quickly called out his name, “Kongshuo?”
“It’s me.” Kong Shuo smiled, revealing a shy expression. “Why are you here? If I remember correctly, President Su should be an invited guest. Where is he? Why are you here alone?”
“Su Xun went to the principal’s place. I was originally with Xi Ze, but he’s at a meeting now.” Xi Wan handed him a bottle of water. “You guys did a good job preparing for your birthday party this time. You’ve put in a lot of effort to teach him. He’ll definitely be happy when he sees it..”
