When Xiao Qian stood on stage and saw the sea of people below, she had the urge to storm out.

These kids are almost about to take exams, but they’re not in their dorms studying. What are they doing here?!

Reluctantly, the female boss sat down to put on her makeup.

“Boss Qian, your face is darker than the bottom of my family’s pot.”

“Whose fault is that?” Xiao Qian said with a straight face.

“Hehe, don’t be mad, perform well and I’ll give you a super surprise later!” said Shi Touyu mysteriously.

“What surprise could you have, another photo of him?” Xiao Qian snorted at the little troublemaker.

“It’s even better than that. You’ll definitely like it.” A mysterious glint flashed in Shi Yu’s eyes.

The performance wouldn’t start for a while, and the small theater was packed with people.

The Drama Club president and male actor stood proudly backstage, peeking out from behind the stage curtain and narcissistically saying,

“They all must have come for this handsome guy, right?”

“President, snap out of it! Everyone came for Boss Qian, ok?” Shi Yu shattered the President’s illusion.

“Couldn’t you let me pretend for a moment?” The President deflated. He’d been in the club for almost three years, and this was the first time a performance had attracted so many people. However, the thought quickly cheered him up.

“Boss Qian’s joining has brought us so much popularity! It’s no wonder we spent a fortune on printing promotional posters and plastering them on every college bulletin board. See how many people have come to Boss Qian’s stage debut!”

“What poster?” Shi Yu turned his head.

“Nothing, nothing.” The President felt, though it wasn’t a big deal, Shi Yu shouldn’t know about it. He and Xiao Qian were so close, and knowing might make her angry.

It was rumored that as soon as the poster was put up, it was snatched away.

The poster featured a candid side profile of Boss Qian without makeup, taken as she sat in class wearing headphones and looking down at her book. Shi Touyu had captured the photo sneakily. In the shot, Boss Qian lifts her hand to adjust her headphones, revealing her delicate wrist with the clear water-colored bracelet accentuating her aloof temperament. Her long eyelashes cast a beautiful shadow on her face, making the side profile surprisingly stunning.

“Xiao Yu, I think Boss Qian doesn’t seem to like performing on stage. Are you afraid she’ll come after you later?” The President asked Xiao Yu.

“Actually, I saw her studying all day without any hobbies, so I wanted to bring her here to relax. Recently she’s been talking in her sleep, I don’t know why she’s so stressed…”

“What did you say?” The President looked at Xiao Yu, who immediately put on a playful smile.

“No problem, I’m not afraid of her getting angry. My Death-Free Gold Medal is here.”

“What kind of Death-Free Gold Medal works so well?” The President was curious.

Shi Touyu looked down at a certain corner of the stage and smiled without speaking.

Below the stage, the most prominent seats had already been reserved for the club members in advance.

Now, three handsome men were sitting in these seats. Although they were wearing casual clothes, everyone could tell at a glance that this wasn’t the type of temperament students should have. Many girls were secretly stealing glances at them.

“Youngest, how did you get out?” Yu Mingyi got a call from his younger brother in the evening and was forcibly dragged here.

“What do you mean ‘get out’? It sounds like I’ve been in prison or something.” Yu Minglang protested.

Qiao Zhen, who was sitting next to Yu Minglang, explained to Yu Mingyi with a smile,

“Second Brother, we came straight after getting off the airplane.”

Having worked overtime for a long time, they had originally planned to go home and rest after returning to the country, but as soon as the young boss heard that his girlfriend was going to perform on stage, he became as excited as if he’d just had a shot of adrenaline. He went straight there.

Just as Shi Touyu called, saying that Xiao Qian had a performance tonight, and she was the female lead.

Upon hearing this, Yu Minglang knew he had to act. His girlfriend was going to be on stage, and even if conditions weren’t perfect, he had to be in the audience —not only himself, but also his elder brother and his brothers in arms!

They didn’t even inform Qian Bao and were just waiting for the surprise.

When the simple curtain opened, and Boss Qian appeared in a dark red, gold-thread velvet waistcoat, the audience gasped in amazement.

So cool!

This outfit had cost the Drama Club a fortune. It was said to have been made by a club member’s mother, based on Shi Touyu’s design sketch. Paired with an intricate lace shirt, the outfit excited a great deal of admiration as soon as it was seen. It was the epitome of retro chic!

Aside from Boss Qian, no one else could pull off this kind of outfit and aura. Indeed, there was something of a vampiric countess in her look.

Yu Minglang was so stunned at how beautiful his Qianbao looked!

However, as the play began, Yu Minglang became increasingly unhappy with what he saw.

Who wrote this damn script?

His Qian Bao, playing such a role? What was the point of pining for a man who was so ugly and being so shamelessly devoted to him?

Yu Minglang was burning with rage as he watched, while the others in the audience were moved to tears. The little girls sitting behind them were already wiping their eyes. What a touching love story!

Xiao Qian’s acting skills weren’t that great, especially since she was naturally disgusted with playing this kind of character devoted to pursuing men. Despite grinding her teeth while reciting lines, her appearance alone captivated not only the men but also the women in the audience.

Yu Minglang originally watched with great enthusiasm, but halfway through, he couldn’t hold back his jealousy any longer.

“Youngest, restrain yourself a bit.” Second Brother Yu could feel Yu Minglang’s agitation as he sat beside him.

“I’ll go out for a bit.” Yu Minglang stood up. Second brother Yu had an intuition that getting up at this time would not end well. Just as he was about to stop him, Qiao Zhen blocked his way.

“Second Brother, have you been busy with work lately?”

“Yeah.”

Taking advantage of Qiao Zhen’s distraction, Yu Minglang decisively got up and walked towards the backstage.

Backstage, Shi Yu was holding the script, coordinating the final scene with the on-site director.

“After Boss Qian smashes the cup, play the sad music immediately, the kind we picked yesterday. It’s heartbreaking…” Shi Yu was saying when suddenly the script was yanked out of her hands. Just as she was about to see who was so rude, she saw Yu Minglang with a dark face.

“Ah! Boss Qian’s man! How did you get in here?!”

She had received a message from her brother saying that Yu Minglang would be able to come. However, she hadn’t expected Yu Minglang to be so bold as to walk straight into someone else’s backstage.

“What kind of crappy lines are these?” Yu Minglang flipped to the last scene and got angry.

His Qian Bao was a treasure that he cherished, but now, on stage, she had become someone who pursued a man and was cruelly ignored by him. It didn’t matter if it was on stage- it was not acceptable!

“Well, it’s a play, you can’t take it seriously…” Seeing Yu Minglang’s face turn black, Shi Yu’s heart raced in fear.

My goodness, this man was so intimidating when he was away from Boss Qian. Even looking at him gave her chills. Only Boss Qian wasn’t afraid of him.

Shi Yu suddenly had a bad feeling. It seemed like she had offended both Boss Qian and Boss Qian’s man at once?

Xiao Qian was about to perform her final scene, and Yu Minglang couldn’t bear to watch.. Was his Qian Bao really going to be dumped by another man, even if it was on stage? No, that couldn’t happen!
