Chapter 61 Preparing the Waiting Room (Ch 61)

Zhou Ke was currently in the preparation room behind the stage, looking through the program for the welcome party.

He didn’t recognize most of the performers, but there were a few familiar names that caught his eye.

Li Hanfeng, one-man talk show performance.

The image of the seemingly silly senior student immediately popped up in Zhou Ke’s mind.

Talk show is also in line with his personality.

The second one.

Zhuang Xingyao, solo of original song.

Zhou Ke thought of the appearance of that cold senior schoolmate.

He had short hair and fair skin. It was a freshman assessment at the time. His attitude towards people was a bit stiff and cold, but he was quite nice to himself.

I don’t know if she sings well.

The third one.

Liu Yingming, martial arts performance.

This surprised Zhou Ke a little.

Senior Liu Yingming is a master of the Diamond Department and is actually interested in martial arts.

Flip back.

In addition, there is another familiar name, Su Chenxi.

Su Chenxi did not sign up to perform, but became the host of the party.

Zhou Ke’s own magic show is the last one in the entire program.

The finale performance.

Due to the special nature of his magic show, Zhou Ke did not participate in advance rehearsals.

But in private, he had already practiced it countless times alone.

The music hummed and the warm-up music echoed throughout the auditorium.

The welcome party has begun.

Zhou Ke put down the program and sat down at an angle near the door of the preparation room so that he could clearly see the stage.

Since your show is at the end, you can calm down and appreciate other people’s performances to kill some time.

……

Accompanied by the music, a white figure slowly walked onto the stage.

Su Chenxi walked onto the big stage with her long hair loose, elegant and delicate makeup on her face and a white long dress.

The stage lights shone on her, and at this moment, she caught the attention of all the audience.

“Wow——” The audience exclaimed in unison.

Even though Su Chenxi did not perform but just stood there, he still attracted everyone’s attention.

Although she was just a host, the entire audience had an illusion.

It seemed that she was the protagonist of this party.

The warm-up music faded and the lights swept across the audience.

Su Chenxi opened her red lips slightly, speaking in a full and clear voice:

“Good evening, teachers and students!”

“Freshmen of Class 25, please check our best wishes from the school!”

“Tonight, the auditorium of Shengpai School is no longer made of steel and concrete, but a land of music, singing and dancing!”

The roof of the auditorium has now been transformed into a starry sky.

When the students heard Su Chenxi’s speech, they all waved their glow sticks.

“In this school, there are so many dreams as hot as the stars, and so many legends of butterflies emerging from cocoons…”

“And every dream helps students become rising stars!”

“In the next three hours, there will be heart-stirring songs and dances, hilarious talk shows, and an eye-catching magic feast.”

“Now, the welcome party officially begins!”

Su Chenxi finished the last sentence in a raised tone, completing his opening speech.

There were waves of applause and cheers from the audience.

Even though Zhou Ke was hiding behind the stage, he couldn’t help but be infected by the passionate emotion.

But…the heaviness of reality did not allow him to waver in his emotions or let down his guard.

He always kept in mind that he was not here to have fun at this welcome party.

His magic show is more than just a show.

After Su Chenxi finished her speech and announced the first program, she quickly walked off the stage and headed towards the preparation room.

Seeing her approaching, Zhou Ke quickly clapped his hands and praised her:

“Your Highness, the goddess of beauty has descended to earth!”

Su Chenxi saw Zhou Ke and said a little embarrassedly:

“I’m just the host. The real contributors to the party are you students who are performing.”

“Zhou Ke, what magic are you going to perform? You didn’t even attend the rehearsal, why are you so secretive?”

Zhou Ke curled his lips slightly:

“One of the magician’s rules: never reveal the contents of a trick in advance.”

“You’ll know when I perform. Don’t worry, it will be wonderful.”

Su Chenxi sat next to Zhou Ke:

“During the entire welcome party, your performance is what I’m most looking forward to. Good luck with your magic show!”

……

There were about a dozen students sitting in the stage preparation room, all waiting for their own performances.

After each show, Su Chenxi would go on stage again to give a connecting speech between the two shows and introduce the next show.

I don’t know how much time had passed, but when a show was going on, Su Chenxi read the program, went off the stage, returned to the preparation room, and sat next to Zhou Ke.

She took off her shoes and rubbed her heels:

“Wearing high heels is really tiring. I hope to get to your show soon so I can go back and rest.”

Zhou Ke also said:

“You seem unaccustomed to this kind of occasion.”

Su Chenxi said softly:

“As a princess, it is a basic requirement to maintain basic etiquette and attend various public occasions.”

“But I still prefer practicing martial arts and fighting.”

Zhou Ke nodded slightly. He had long known that although the princess looked elegant and dignified, she was a violent girl at heart.

“Hey, Zhou Ke, so you were hiding here!” A boy’s voice suddenly came.

Zhou Ke looked up.

Senior Li Hanfeng’s smiling face came into view:

“That’s what I told you. I saw your name on the program and knew you would be here!”

His voice was so loud that everyone in the preparation room looked over there.

Zhou Ke noticed that in the corner, senior Liu Yingming was staring at him closely.

Sitting opposite him was senior Zhuang Xingyao.

She had been playing with her phone with her head down, but suddenly she looked up in her direction.

Noticing their reactions, Zhou Ke suddenly realized what Li Hanfeng was going to say.

…and wants to drag myself onto the pirate ship again.

He coughed twice and said, “Senior, isn’t it your show yet?”

Senior Li Hanfeng scratched his head: “It seems that the next program is mine… No, don’t try to change the subject!”

He suddenly made his tone deliberately serious, pretending to be an experienced person and said:

“My junior, the welcome party is just a small event.”

“The real large-scale school-wide event has to be the Elite Cup!”

“And…the prerequisite for participating in the Elite Cup is…”

here we go again.

Zhou Ke helplessly replied: “Join a student club.”

“Correct!” Senior Li Hanfeng said with a grin:

“So, you haven’t joined the club yet!”

“Can you tell me about the Black Blade Group?”

Zhou Ke noticed from the corner of his eye that senior sister Zhuang Xingyao, who was not far away, had completely put down her phone.

Senior Liu Yingming also crossed his arms and looked over here.

It seemed that they were all waiting for Zhou Ke’s answer.
