After the gala ended, all the perforrs needed to co on stage for a final bow. Su Wan stood in the last row, basically swallowed by the crowd, so she simply took advantage of all the perforrs going on stage to quietly slip back to the backstage lounge.
Just stepping out of the backstage safety door, she looked up and saw a tall figure walking slowly toward her from not far away.
She stepped forward to et him, "Mr. Fu, have you been waiting long?"
Fu Weiheng silently curved his lips, ignoring the people passing by in the corridor, and directly pulled her into his arms, speaking in a calm voice, "Wanwan, you really surprised ."
His rich voice carried a hint of delight. Su Wan nestled against the comfortable fabric of his suit, her initially restless heart finding utmost peace at this mont.
"Ahem..."
A soft cough suddenly ca from behind. Su Wan peeked out from his embrace, only to find Xu Chengyang and Yao Ye, who had sohow appeared behind Fu Weiheng.
The two stood there, lips curled in a knowing smile, "Wanwan..."
Fu Weiheng shifted slightly to the side, "I’m going to the restroom."
Su Wan nodded and shyly tucked a strand of hair behind her ear in front of the two.
Yao Ye couldn’t contain her excitent, "Oh my god, Wanwan, you’re so cool! When did you learn to play the drums?"
Xu Chengyang ca up and grabbed her hand, giving it a gentle pat, "I really didn’t expect my Su to have such an unexpected skill!"
"In high school, I used to go with Qin Mu to learn for fun..." Su Wan felt a bit embarrassed; after all, it wasn’t a skill she flaunted openly.
Xu Chengyang leaned in and rubbed his face against her, "Hmm, Su, I’m going to love you to death..."
Su Wan: "..."
Yao Ye couldn’t stand it any longer. She grabbed Xu Chengyang by the collar and pulled her aside, "By the way, Wanwan, our departnt is having a gathering later, you should co along."
"A gathering..." Su Wan hesitated.
She preferred quiet and didn’t like being in lively places. Over the years, she had only attended one departntal gathering, and that was the welco banquet after the enrollnt ceremony three years ago.
Xu Chengyang spoke earnestly, not giving her a chance as he cut in, "You should co, Wanwan. You haven’t attended a single gathering in the past few years. We’re graduating this year, and you’re not planning to go? Your classmates in the departnt always hope you’ll attend!"
Yao Ye chid in, "Yeah, Wanwan, co on, bring God as well. Everyone will surely be happier."
Su Wan felt a bit uneasy. Her classmates in the departnt usually took good care of her, and the last ti sothing happened, they all helped her out. It seed really unfriendly to refuse the gathering again. After pondering for a while, she said, "Okay, I’ll go, but about God..."
She was just about to say not to invite Fu Weiheng since he also disliked noisy places, but before she could finish her sentence, Xu Chengyang saw Fu Weiheng coming out of the restroom and directly ran up to him to ntion the gathering.
Before Su Wan could react, Fu Weiheng had already nodded in agreent, then walked up to her in a few steps and gently tapped her on the forehead, "What are you daydreaming about?"
Xu Chengyang said, "Wanwan, God, we’ll go find the class president to ask about the gathering’s location and send you a ssage on WeChat later."
With that, she pulled Yao Ye and quickly disappeared down the corridor.
Su Wan was a bit incredulous, "You’re going?"
"Yes." Fu Weiheng glanced at her, asking back, "Don’t want to go?"
Su Wan replied, "I thought you didn’t like crowds..."
"It’s different." His expression remained calm, devoid of any visible emotions, yet his words carried warmth, "They are your friends and classmates."
Su Wan was startled, looking at Fu Weiheng’s handso face, suddenly understanding.
Is God... being considerate of those she cares about?
anwhile, the perforrs on stage had all finished bowing and were pouring off the stage into the lounge. Watching the surging crowd, Fu Weiheng frowned slightly, kept Su Wan at his side, and took her hand, "Let’s go."
