Chapter 424 What a Match
Chapter 424 What a Match
After entering, Xu Zheng said, "Thank you. I wanted to reject him directly, but I felt that with so many people watching, it would be embarrassing for him."
Pei Xuanxi poured her a glass of water and said softly, "Student Xu is taking care of his classmates' emotions. I can understand that."
Xu Zheng laughed twice, "Of course."
She didn't notice the sarcasm in this sentence at all. Pei Xuanxi also knew that he couldn't play guessing games with Azheng. He happened to have an excuse to invite her to the dance, so he might as well use some tricks.
"It's just... classmate Xu won't be with me after all, and then I'll be alone again." Pei Xuanxi said with his head slightly lowered.
Xu Zheng took a sip of water and looked at him strangely.
They were chatting outside just now, and they said they wanted to look for Pei Xuanxi, so why was he alone?
"But, someone should invite you." Xu Zheng said.
Pei Xuanxi looked at her, frowning slightly, looking somewhat pitiful, "No, classmate Xu forgot, I don't have any friends."
Xu Zheng was even more confused. She really heard it...
"How about you wait a few more days?" Xu Zheng said, and then thought of what happened just now, "Ah! You just said you were going with me, what should I do? They will definitely not invite you."
"Yeah, what should I do?" Pei Xuanxi murmured, "How about this, classmate Xu, you just have to bear with me and attend the dance together, okay?"
He seemed to be afraid that Xu Zheng would refuse, so he smiled softly and said, "Otherwise, they would probably laugh at me. Of course, if classmate Xu insists on not being with me, I won't force her."
Xu Zheng stroked her chin and thought for a while. Pei Xuanxi was such a nice person, so there was nothing wrong with dancing with him. Besides, she had just said in front of so many people that Pei Xuanxi had invited her. If they didn't go to the dance together later, Pei Xuanxi would probably lose face, right?
"Well, it's just a small thing." Xu Zheng smiled and sat next to him, patting his shoulder, "Then let's join together, but I can't dance."
Pei Xuanxi said: "It doesn't matter, I will teach you."
Xu Zheng giggled: "Then thank you for your help." She reached out to take the food on the table, completely unaware of Pei Xuanxi's triumphant look.
A Zheng, who was in her twenties, could not realize his bad intentions, so how could A Zheng, who was fifteen, possibly react to it?

In the auditorium, Xia Nian changed his clothes and was discussing the script with the teacher.
"Although there are no lines, you still have to act with the leading actor." The teacher looked behind him, "Has the person who plays Prince El not arrived yet?"
The prop guy answered, "We're here, changing clothes backstage."
Although the script states that there are three main characters, namely Prince El, Princess Sera and Knight Perrin, the knight only has a few scenes at the end, and there are more scenes about the princess and the prince. Because the princess saved the prince on the way to find a solution, the two of them traveled together, and the prince was forced to return to his country first.
Another main character is the high priest, who has many rival scenes with the princess.
After a while, the two main characters came. Xia Nian looked up and frowned slightly: "Brother Cheng Zhou?"
Cheng Zhou changed into a prince's costume and took off his glasses. He was originally a young man from a wealthy family, and now after putting on the costume, he really looked like a prince in the script.
"Nian Nian." He stepped forward and said with a smile, "I will play Prince Ai Er with you. You don't have to worry about people talking about me, right?"
Xia Nian said calmly: "Where's your sister?"
Cheng Zhou was stunned and said, "She is in class, don't worry about her."
Xia Nian glanced at him. She was simply afraid that Cheng Xiwen would cause trouble.
She had seen how Cheng Xiwen was able to cause trouble, and she was known for her tantrums and throwing tantrums. Cheng Zhou himself was also annoyed. Ever since his sister came home, Cheng's father felt that he owed her and had always been obedient to her, which gradually led to her developing a spoiled and overbearing character.
His mother had a gentle personality. She neither scolded nor taught Cheng Xiwen, but left her alone. Sometimes he had to step in and educate her. It gave him a headache just thinking about it.
This is also one of the reasons why he couldn't let go of Xia Nian for so long. Who could bear it if he had a quiet and pretty sister who was suddenly forced to become a spoiled child?
When the teacher saw him coming, he asked the two of them to act together.
The princess and the prince have quite a few intimate scenes, and Xia Nian is speechless, but she is not the kind of person who can let her personal emotions affect her work. When Cheng Zhou plays the role, she is less stiff about the action of hugging.
The two of them were doing the interactive actions in a pretty good understanding, with the teacher guiding them from the side.
Cheng Zhou took Xia Nian's hand. Xia Nian stepped lightly, turned around slowly and then bent down. Cheng Zhou's hands held her waist tightly. With another force, Xia Nian straightened up and put her hands on his shoulders.
The teacher looked very happy, clapped his hands twice, and said, "Very good, very good. You can take a rest first."
The two sat on the chairs. Cheng Zhou handed Xia Nian a bottle of water and said with a smile, "Niannian, this is just like the house we played before."
He said they were playing together, but in fact Cheng Zhou forced Xia Nian to play with him in order to get closer to her.
"Really? You still remember." Xia Nian answered casually.
"Yeah." Cheng Zhou sat next to her, "Your childhood photo is still at the head of my bed."
Xia Nian glanced at him, and Cheng Zhou said quickly, "It's the one we took together."
Xia Nian nodded. At that time, she was adopted and Cheng's mother took a lot of photos of the two of them.
But she never lingered on these things. After all, she was just an adopted daughter who had lived with him for a year. It was really surprising to her that Cheng Zhou had not let go after all these years.
Xia Nian thought about it for a while and then stopped thinking about it. She picked up the script and talked to him. Her attention was all on the script, but Cheng Zhou kept staring at her soft profile.
The taciturn little girl a few years ago has grown into a graceful young lady now. How can he not feel regretful? It is obvious that in a few months, Xia Nian can change her name, and they will never be separated.
"Have you seen enough?" Xia Nian suddenly asked, but his eyes were on the script, which scared Cheng Zhou.
"Niannian, I..." Cheng Zhou murmured, not knowing what to say for a moment.
Xia Nian turned her head to look at him, her clear eyes without any emotion, "I've said before, what happened before is in the past, let's move on, okay?"
This reminded Cheng Zhou that he had always regretted his past with Xia Nian, but forgot that if they no longer had the relationship of brother and sister, there would be more possibilities for developing other relationships.
Just because of what happened before, Xia Nian always felt a little repulsive towards him.
Cheng Zhou calmed down and said, "I understand."
Xia Nian glanced at him suspiciously. Based on her understanding of him, he must not have thought it through.
Just as they were about to go on stage to act, there was a sudden applause from behind. They looked back and saw Xiahou Yu slowly walking down, his eyes moving back and forth between the two of them: "Ah~ What a good match."
Xia Nian frowned. When she heard him say this, she suddenly had a thought in her mind: "Xia Hou Yu?"
Xiahou Yu smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm just here to take care of things and won't disturb Her Royal Highness the Princess."
Without waiting for Xia Nian to answer, Xiahou Yu strode away.
Xia Nian looked at his straight back, his brows furrowed for a moment.
Cheng Zhou asked: "Niannian, I wanted to ask you yesterday, do you know him?"
Xia Nian thought of what happened in the dressing room yesterday and said, "I know him. He helped me a lot."
"Really?" Cheng Zhou observed her expression, and was relieved when he saw that she looked normal. He reminded her, "Many rich second-generations in school are very extravagant. You must be careful."
Xia Nian stood up and said, "I know."
