Growing Fond of You, Mr Nian Novel - Chapter 139

Chapter 139: Why Is He Here? He Looks Familiar with Luo Sang

Luosang was startled. She looked around and found that quite some people had seen Chi Shengxu. They were looking at him and whispering to each other.

“You’re from the acting department. Why’re you here?” she asked.

“You didn’t accept my invitation, so I figured you’re still upset about what happened the night before last.” Chi Shengxu rested his chin on his hand and tilted his head to look at Luosang. He didn’t care how eye-catching he was.

“I’ve told you that I don’t mind. I was working out there. I was busy,” Luosang leaned her palm against her forehead while responding, “Just go back to your classroom.”

“I don’t get to come to the broadcasting department a lot. I want to know what you’ve been leaning,” said Chi Shengxu while looking at Professor Li, who was walking in.

Professor Li was famously strict, so Luosang had no choice but to stop talking.

“Alright, quiet.” Professor Li raised a hand and said, “Christmas is only a month away. This year, our school will hold a large-scale artistic activity, which will be hosted by a student from our broadcasting department. Unlike previous years, this time, some important people from a few film and television companies, local television stations, and some famous directors will all attend.”

Once Professor Li said that, the students in the classroom all began discussing excitedly.

Seeing this, Professor Li smiled, and continued, “I think you all understand that this will be an great opportunity. The ones who deliver good performances will have a chance to be remembered. So this time, students from the other departments have all been trying their best. The host from our department also needs to be selected carefully. This host will be the face of our college. Appearance should be secondary. Most importantly, this host needs to be quick of wit and eloquent, resourceful, and able to handle all sorts of situations; she will also need to have a good voice and great sense of music.”

Luosang clenched her hands. This was an opportunity for every student in the department.

Like many of the others, she also needed a chance to stand out. However, even if she managed to impress the others, would Yi Jingxi ever give her an opportunity to build her career?

With this thought, she slowly loosened her hands, and wore a bland look again.

Shui Chang stood up and said, “Professor, I think I can do it.”

“Me too,” Ni Miao raised her hand as well.

Chi Shengxu abruptly stood up and said loudly, “Professor Li, I think Luo Sang is the best.”

Luosang gave a start, then hurriedly tried to drag his hand down.

Chi Shengxu ignored her and continued, “I heard that Luo Sang’s grade is ranked first in your department. She’s talented and experienced. I think every speech or performance she has made in school was natural and smooth. Not only that, she has a stunning appearance. She’s known as the prettiest girl in your department. And, her voice is incredibly beautiful. She can definitely attract an audience.”

Luosang paused briefly. She had seen Chi Shengxu only a few times in the recent few months, but the speech she made happened in the last semester. She didn’t think he would know about it.

“It’s Chi Shengxu. My God, why is he here? He looks familiar with Luo Sang. Are they a couple?” Many girls in the classroom showed jealousy in their eyes.

“Yeah, Professor, I agree.” Soon, some male students stood up to speak for Luosang. “We’ve heard Luo Sang sing in KTV. She’s no worse than those singers.”

“It’s true. Luo Sang is so pretty. Even if she’s talking nonsense, I’d still like to watch her.”

More and more male students agreed with Chi Shengxu. Hearing them, some girls became unhappy.

“I don’t agree,” said Ni Miao angrily, “We’re selecting a host. It’s not a beauty contest. She made masterly speeches in school, but so what? Making speeches is different from hosting. If making speech counts, I’ve taken an internship in a broadcasting station.”

“Hm, but the broadcasting station didn’t make you a host. Besides, do any of you have better grades than Luo Sang does?”
