Chapter 8: The Bet

  "Wu Xiang!"

  "Arrived!"

  "Fall in!"

  "Yes!"

  "Tell me!"

  Snap to attention!

  "Halt!"

  "This is the formal lecture. The instructor loudly said: 'Investigation! Cadet Wu Xiang, did not return to the dormitory at night, privately bought food, and made special arrangements! This had a very bad influence on this military training! Special criticism announcement! Wu Xiang!"

  "Arrived!"

  "Attention! From now on, stand at attention! Don't move until I say stop, got it?"

  "I understand!"

  Next, Wu Xiang was stuck in the ground like a bamboo stick under the sun...

  The military training has ended, but the scorching sun and the messy eyes of his classmates left a deep impression on Wu Xiang. Many of them were puzzled, and even those who knew him well didn't know what had gotten into this guy, running to the small woods with food in hand, only to end up eating nothing. This guy must have been up to something, but Wu Xiang's lips were sealed tight, saying nothing.

  The key is Huang Yi's classmate, Wu Xiang found that this guy actually didn't dare look at himself, guilty conscience!

  Not only was he tortured physically, but also mentally. He had originally meant well, but the other party didn't appreciate it, what a frustrating situation for Wu Xiang!

  But anyway, there's something that temporarily made up for Wu Xiang's slightly injured heart, because he just signed a publishing contract with a publisher, and naturally, it was for the book "First Intimate Contact"!

  As soon as the military training was over, Wu Xiang got back his mobile phone and immediately discovered an unfamiliar number. He dialed it back and the other party explained their intention, which was a publishing house called Red Culture. Of course, Wu Xiang wasn't stupid either, so he quickly checked out their qualifications, which were quite good. So why wait to sign the contract?

  The price was agreed upon and the contract was signed. Wu Xiang didn't get too much of a raw deal, after all, he was still a new author, but the power of the internet was on his side, so he didn't lose out either. This was a good thing! This was the most crucial part of Wu Xiang's entire plan. If everything went smoothly, then he would be able to get the most important thing: funding!

  I don't know how many more, but at least I'm on the right track now, and my dreams aren't far off, are they?

  Signed a contract, and his university life is also officially unfolding, everything is developing in a good direction, except that he made a big name during military training, although it's not a good reputation.

  But for now, let's put these aside. After a big class, students from several classes didn't leave because they had something important to discuss.

  "The campus song and dance competition, also known as the welcome party, is scheduled to be held on the eve of National Day, which is also the traditional Mid-Autumn Festival..."

  Lin Jidong that guy who looks like a dog has mixed up with the team branch book, this is indeed beyond Wu Xiang's expectation. However, as long as you have seen Huang Qiubo's idle and arrogant appearance in private, you can determine that the guy is absolutely not a material for being an official. Therefore, Huang Qiubo is also like Wu Xiang, having no official position makes him feel light.

  Wu Xiang was originally the top student in the literature class, a small class of eighteen people, and the position of class leader was almost certain. However, this guy performed so exceptionally well during military training that he naturally didn't have a chance anymore. But Wu Xiang was happy about it, after all, he had more freedom now.

  After military training, each class quickly had a bureaucratic system, oh no, it's a cadre system. The literature class doesn't need to be mentioned, with only 18 people, and not being taken seriously by the teachers. But the performance class is different. The league branch secretary is Lin Jidong, the class leader is a girl named Zeng Hui, and the study committee member is Huang Yi. It's said that her score is the highest in the performance class.

  Lin Jidong's so-called meeting this time was actually a mobilization meeting. No way, although they had gone through military training, everyone wasn't particularly familiar with each other yet. And now there was something in front of them - the welcoming party that all college students would experience. This year's welcoming party was directly combined with National Day and Mid-Autumn Festival, which was pretty good, wasn't it? The festive atmosphere was even thicker!

  But to welcome the new students, you have to put on a show, and most importantly, we are an art school, this show can't be bad, it has to reflect a certain level of quality, so Lin Jidong got together with a few people from each class, everyone brought out their hidden strengths, let the senior brothers and sisters as well as the teachers take a look, our 97 class is not inferior in any way.

  Actually, when it comes to performing in the show, it's basically up to the performance class. Other classes may have a few talented students, but there are too few of them. For example, the literature class, as soon as they heard it was a song and dance competition, they all became silent onlookers.

  Previously, the democratically elected class leader Tang Tingting had already asked the literary class about this special talent, and no one had it. Everyone said that if they could write a script for a sketch show, it would be okay, but singing and dancing was really not their thing.

  Wu Xiang originally just wanted to be an onlooker, but when he heard Lin Jidong mention a certain classmate, Wu Xiang was no longer calm.

  "We're newcomers, and the film academy is like a gathering of hidden dragons, but even so, we can't let our morale weaken. Fortunately, our classmate Huang Yi used to be a professional dance choreographer and had won awards before, this time she also brought new works...” Lin Jidong was really good at flattering, Wu Xiang in the audience felt uncomfortable listening to him.

  "Could you be interested in her?" Wu Xiang thought to himself, with a hint of suspicion.

  "Huang Yi, on the other side, couldn't listen anymore. 'Lin Jidong, don't say that either, this is what I should do.'"

  Can't help but say that Huang Yi is still very low-key, but Lin Ji Dong's flattery hasn't stopped, "Huang Yi, you're too humble, this time it's all up to you, we need to show off the new students' style..."

  Wu Xiang's heart felt more and more uncomfortable as he listened. It seemed that Lin Ji Dong was also a clever one. This was really not like him! Thinking back to what Huang Qi Bo had said earlier, it seemed that the heavy luggage of Huang Yi's classmate was indeed carried up by this kid Lin Ji Dong. The more Wu Xiang thought about it, the more he felt that this was probably the case.

  No way! What about the bitter suffering I endured before?! You two are taking advantage of me... Alright, let's be civilized, but Wu Xiang can't really become that kind of man and woman, okay?!

  Then Wu Xiang spoke up, "I say Lin Dazhi, since this welcoming party is also called a singing and dancing competition, are there prizes?"

  "Really!" Lin Jidong replied immediately: "Through student voting, the top three winners will receive awards, and the rewards are still very generous. The first prize is one thousand yuan, the second prize is five hundred yuan, and the third prize is three hundred yuan..."

  "That's great! I've signed up too!" Wu Xiang's sudden change of words immediately attracted the attention of his classmates, because earlier, the literature class had been keeping a low profile.

  At this time, Wang Hongzhi immediately came over and said, "Brother, what are you thinking? Are you sure?"

  Wu Xiang immediately replied: "Whether we can grasp it or not, we must fight for a breath of air. Haven't you seen that the performing troupe has already prepared how to divide the prize money?"

  "Ah!" Wang Hongzhi slapped his thigh, indeed, those guys from the drama class were too bullying, how could this be? Did they think our literature class had no one?

  Wu Xiang is really clever. He turned his personal matter into a righteous cause for the class's honor. Then he continued, "How about this, Lin Daizhi and Huang Yi have already prepared a dance, so I'll sing a song. It's a song and dance competition, can't just have dance without song, right?"

  "Right on!" "Xiangzi, we support you!"... Several dormitory roommates who were not bad with Wu Xiang started cheering.

  "That's naturally no problem." Lin Jidong was naturally pleased with the outcome, but what Wu Xiang said next made people a bit...

  "But I'd like to make a bet!" Wu Xiang stood up, his voice loud and clear for the entire class to hear. "I've heard that Huang Yi is a professional musician, but I'm just an amateur who's never had any formal music training since childhood. Still, I want to challenge an authority figure, Huang Yi, can you give me a chance to compete with me?"

  Wu Xiang's words were finished, and the whole scene fell into silence. No one spoke because this matter was too strange. You're a big bamboo pole, what are you comparing with Yizhihua from the performance class?

  So, although he didn't say a word, everyone cast Wu Xiang a puzzled and disdainful glance, thinking that this male classmate was simply a bit unreasonable.

  No one knew why Wu Xiang had to compete with Huang Yi, but there was one person who knew the reason, and that was classmate Huang Yi.

  "Alright! Let's compete then! What if you lose to me?" Huang Yi's temper had never been one to back down from a challenge, and at this moment she felt that this big bamboo pole was being small-minded and petty. Wasn't it just because she hadn't gone to that little forest? Which normal girl would go there anyway?!

  Seeing that the other party had already agreed, Wu Xiang smiled triumphantly and said: "Simple, I lost, then you can make me do whatever you want, what if I win?"

  Facing Wu Xiang's arrogant counter-question, Huang Yi immediately said: "It's also simple, whatever you ask me to do, I can do it, and I will never say no!"

  It's really magnificent, Wu Xiang said he appreciated it very much, and Huang Yi has a bit of the shadow of the future.

  But Wu Xiang was a bad guy, and with a sly smile on his face, he said, "Really, anything goes?"

  This tone, this expression, is perfect for playing a dirty old man.

  "Hey!" Huang Yi's classmates were all indignant at the same time, and many girls' faces turned red as they stood up to condemn Wu Xiang, but just then...

  "Wu Xiang, be careful! Your behavior is affecting others!" Lin Jidong said directly in a serious tone.

  Wu Xiang didn't mind, but this time the guy was extremely serious: "Sorry, I might disappoint you, actually my request is very simple, just help me wash clothes will do, however, rest assured that I will still solve it myself."

  The last sentence directly sold out the previous seriousness.

  "Hahaha......" As soon as this was said, there was a burst of laughter.

  "You're an egg!" Huang Yi's classmate was so angry.
