Chapter 191 - 43: Freshman Party, Xia Xiyao’s Performance
CHAPTER 191: CHAPTER 43: FRESHMAN PARTY, XIA XIYAO’S PERFORMANCE
When Xu Lin returned from the restroom, Xia Xiyao had already left.
She said she went to prepare at the backstage of the main stage.
Xia Xiyao’s two performances, one was dancing with the dance club members, and the other was singing solo.
The dance performance will kick off the freshman party in about ten minutes.
"Is there a program schedule?"
"Let me ask Yaoyao!"
Rong Xiyi quickly sent a message to Xia Xiyao.
Very soon, Xu Lin saw the program schedule.
The dance club’s performance was the first program, Xia Xiyao’s solo was the sixth, and she would be singing Wang Fei’s "Red Beans".
Xu Lin checked the time; she would sing "Red Beans" at 19:50.
"Then we can leave in an hour."
Xu Lin wasn’t really interested in such parties, so he preferred to leave early if possible.
"Mm-hmm, then we’ll leave in an hour!"
Rong Xiyi added, "Tonight, we’ll have dinner with Yaoyao!"
"Okay, we’ll have dinner together then."
"Sushi!"
"Alright, sushi it is!"
Xu Lin didn’t mind. He’d had sushi a few times, which he thought was okay, although some were indeed unpleasant and expensive.
Xu Lin looked for a place to sit, but all the students had brought their school-issued plastic stools for such large events.
So Xu Lin and the others had to stand.
Rong Xiyi then stood in front of Xu Lin, letting him wrap his arm around her waist, pressing her back tightly against him.
"Xu Lin, hold me!"
"Okay."
This way, Rong Xiyi felt much more secure.
However, after a while, Rong Xiyi started to feel something was off.
She was wearing sports pants today, those black wide-leg ones, quite thin, not as thick as jeans, and she could obviously feel something.
"Xu Lin, are you thinking all sorts of dirty thoughts?"
Rong Xiyi turned her head, slightly frowning, looking both angry and cute.
"Means I have feelings for you."
Xu Lin chuckled, not at all embarrassed.
"Just being a perv! What feelings!"
"You’re getting it wrong. At first, Li Sinan from your dorm wanted to pursue me, and several pretty girls in the class were interested in me too, but I ignored them. You think I’m lustful, but I have principles."
"Pfft, you’re just driven by lust!"
"Alright, I’m driven by lust!"
Xu Lin held her close and whispered in her ear, "Is tonight a possibility?"
"What do you mean?"
"What you said last night, anything goes."
"No way!"
Rong Xiyi directly refused, having been impulsive two nights ago; if Xu Lin had taken her to a rental place or checked into a room last night, it would have happened. But now Rong Xiyi had cooled down, especially after Xia Xiyao said some things earlier; Rong Xiyi felt she had to stick to her principles. If Xu Lin didn’t break up with Ning Yuhuan, she absolutely wouldn’t agree.
Rong Xiyi said, "Break up with Ning Yuhuan, and I’ll agree with you!"
Xu Lin said nothing. Rong Xiyi’s thoughts were hard to fathom; she was like this at one moment, and like that the next. Xu Lin seemed to have gotten used to it.
"Xu Lin, break up with her, and I’ll agree with you!"
"Xu Lin, speak up! Why are you silent?"
"I don’t know what to say."
"Send her a message, break up with her."
"The senior is a good girl."
"What about me?"
"You are too."
"So, do you want to have your cake and eat it too?"
"Kind of!"
Xu Lin suddenly laughed.
Upon hearing this, Rong Xiyi broke free from Xu Lin and stood beside him.
"Don’t touch me!"
She firmly refused.
The fickleness of a woman’s heart, like a needle at the bottom of the sea, seemed just like this, and Xu Lin had gotten quite used to it.
So, Xu Lin simply started playing on his phone.
A few minutes later, the freshman party officially started after a long enthusiastic opening by a male and female host.
Eight girls from the dance club came out from the backstage.
Instantly, all eyes in the audience were drawn to them, accompanied by thunderous applause and cheers.
On stage, eight girls walked out and finally formed the shape of a ’V’.
Their outfits were similar, with black long sleeves and black cargo pants, but with some stylistic differences.
However, what they wore didn’t matter much to these eight girls.
Because all eight girls were over 1.7 meters tall, very tall and slim, with great figures and good looks. Among them, four girls were very pretty, and especially Xia Xiyao stood out, although she wasn’t the leader and stood at the back, almost all eyes were drawn to her immediately, or at the very next moment.
She stood out like a crane among chickens, her charisma exceptional.
At the same time, the background music started, it was a Peninsula song.
"What song is this?"
Xu Lin was curious.
Rong Xiyi said, "The background music is from the Peninsula girl group Blackpink’s piece ’As if it is your last’, that’s the dance Yaoyao and her group are performing!"
Xu Lin suddenly understood.
He was familiar with the Peninsula girl group.
Rong Xiyi added, "And this song sounds energetic, with a dance full of youthful vigor, unlike some girl group dances which are a bit raunchy and vulgar."
"Well, the Peninsula girl group earns their living from this, they need some naughtiness!"
Seizing the chance while speaking, Xu Lin pulled Rong Xiyi back into his embrace, holding her from behind.
"The dance has started!"
Rong Xiyi said.
"Mm, I’m watching!"
"Yaoyao’s dancing really well, let me tell you, among the eight girls with her, the other seven are seniors, she’s the only freshman, she has an incredible talent for dance, just shortly after joining the dance club at the start of the semester, they’re already having her participate in such big events, while the other freshmen are still practicing!"
