It snowed heavily in A City for the next two days.
After Pei Huai’s birthday, the temperature plummeted and A City entered winter.
Due to the weather restrictions, the award ceremony, which was originally planned to be held outdoors, could only be changed to indoors and returned to the school auditorium.
A quarter of the seats were gone, but the number of partic.i.p.ants increased. The enthusiastic students brought their own chairs.
The last four contestants to enter the championship battle had already stood on the stage. Even the little Ioli in fourth place would receive an outstanding contestant award later.
The princ.i.p.al went on stage to give a speech and send a message to the students.
The little Ioli dressed up. She even wore a diamond crown on her head. The skirt was about four layers, and the cloud lace was seen from under her skirt.
It was even more exaggerated than the day of the live broadcast.
Su Ji, who had officially advanced to the ranks of female celebrities, would also be appearing today. She did not want anyone to post a comparison online and say, “look, this is the difference between an internet celebrity and a celebrity!!”
The handsome junior was also dressed as if he was attending an award ceremony.
Only Yang Xiaotao was more normal.
Jiang Chu was dressed provocatively, but he usually wore this, so it didn’t look intentional.
However…
Yang Xiaotao, who was standing beside him, nudged him with her elbow. “I didn’t see you nervous during the compet.i.tion. Why are you so nervous now that the compet.i.tion is over?”
Because of Su Ji, the two of them became more familiar with each other.
“Nervous?” Jiang Chu gulped. ‘Why do you think I’m nervous?”
Yang Xiaotao turned to look at him.
From top to bottom.
It could be said that every cell in his body was trembling!
“Your lips are white,” Yang Xiaotao said. “Do you want me to give you a mirror?”
Jiang Chu didn’t look too happy. “Don’t be a busybody.”
If they were not familiar with each other before, Yang Xiaotao might have been stunned by his words, but now it seemed to have no effect.
She looked at him first, then at him again after a few seconds, and then looked down…
She recalled the thing she picked up that day…
Today’s situation was different from the previous day. The countless students and reporters below the stage were all focused on them.
Yang Xiaotao coughed and whispered in a voice that only the two of them could hear, “wear it well today. Don’t let it fall out later.”
“What?” Jiang Chu didn’t even have time to react and immediately asked.
Yang Xiaotao sighed, stretched out a finger, and quickly poked at the target position.
“This one.”
Jiang Chu, who was suddenly attacked, was speechless.
The third second:
He looked at Yang Xiaotao with a frightened expression.
He suddenly remembered the time he sent Su Ji to the hospital. When he left the hospital, he realized…
She picked it up?
After confirming this fact, his ears turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye.
However, he could not flare up on stage.
Jiang Chu looked around and clenched his fists in embarra.s.sment.
“I told you not to meddle!”
Yang Xiaotao covered her ears that were almost deafened by him. “We’re friends, there’s nothing to be embarra.s.sed about…”
“Who’s your friend…” Jiang Chu swallowed the words he was about to say.
He looked away and refused to communicate with her anymore.
His mind was already in a mess, and it was even more annoying after she stirred it up!
The contestants on the stage were glamorous and each had their own merits.
However, the reporters who were invited only took a few photos in a formal manner. Then, they looked around the stage as if they were looking for someone.
“Coming, coming! Su Ji is here!”
“Ahhhh! She’s finally here!”
“She’s wearing the same sportswear as that day! I’ve already placed an order for this set of clothes at Xixi. In a few days, I’ll have the outfit with the same design!”
Following the host’s introduction, the tall figure walked out from behind the curtain that led to the backstage.
Master Ji appeared with an enviable calmness.
The students immediately started a heated discussion.
The reporters finally locked onto their target and aimed their cameras at the stage.
The contestants also looked at her. Yang Xiaotao hid her hand behind her back and waved it slightly. Jiang Chu had a complicated expression and avoided her eyes.
The little Ioli straightened the crown on her head and was ready to compete with the female celebrity in the same frame.
However, when she looked over confidently, her smile froze on her face in the next second!
She had dressed up meticulously to attend, but Su Ji actually went on stage in a tracksuit and a pair of white sneakers?
Su Ji walked over to the host and was about to pa.s.s by the contestants. The reporters quickly took photos and screenshots. When Su Ji pa.s.sed by the little Ioli, she had one hand in her pocket and the other casually brushed her hair back. Her movements were simple.
In comparison, the little Ioli who had overdressed herself was like a colorful peac.o.c.k, the kind that had fallen into a paint tank!
A reporter took a photo of this moment and said to his colleague beside him, “Look, this is the difference between a celebrity and an internet celebrity!”
When she pa.s.sed by Yang Xiaotao, Su Ji did not stop, but she naturally rubbed the top of her head.
This detail was seen by many students, and the scene was once again in an uproar.
“Did you see that? What’s the relationship between Yang Xiaotao and Su Ji?”
A few of them had seen Su Ji’s special love for Yang Xiaotao before. They had been abused by Yang Xiaotao at the opening ceremony last time. Now that they heard the envious voices around them, they almost bit their lips until they broke the skin!
In this PK compet.i.tion, Yang Xiaotao had become a thorn in the side of the entire school.
But she was fine with it.
As long as she could get the love of her idol, she could go against the entire world!
Ten minutes after Su Ji went on stage, the reporters’ cameras had already used up half of their memory.
Finally, it was time for the awards ceremony.
The other three contestants were awarded by the princ.i.p.al, the vice-princ.i.p.al, and an outstanding professor.
Su Ji took the crystal trophy that belonged to the champion from the staff and walked up to Jiang Chu.
The winner was announced and the trophy was awarded. The audience applauded.
From Jiang Chu’s admirers and Su Ji’s fans.
However, at such a glorious moment, Jiang Chu did not dare to look Su Ji in the eye.
On the contrary, Su Ji looked at him directly.
“The one who got the chance to partic.i.p.ate in the interview with Su Ji for ‘Tonight’s Warmth’ is our cla.s.smate Jiang Mi!” The emcee’s tone was impa.s.sioned. “Let’s give our warmest applause to the champion again!”
The applause from all directions became even more enthusiastic, and countless celebratory ribbons instantly fell from above their heads.
Jiang Chu lowered his head and didn’t enjoy it at all.
When he stole a glance at Su Ji for the umpteenth time, Su Ji looked straight ahead and said indifferently, “you… have something to say to me.”
She did not use a question..
