Once Fang Zhou was called upon, there was no escaping it, no matter how much he tried to fool himself.
Several guests began urging him to go up.
Especially Liu Hao, who was riding high on the excitent of just playing a ga with Tang Wan, directly pulled Fang Zhou up.
“Go on! What if you beco famous from this one performance and the director sees your potential, skyrocketing you to stardom?”
Hearing him talk as if Fang Zhou would be raking in money by the sackful after this, the others laughed.
Fang Zhou thought: I don’t know about stardom, but embarrassnt is a given.
Whether he stepped forward or not, there was no avoiding it.
Fang Zhou steeled himself and stepped up.
Earning money isn’t shaful!
At this mont, Fang Zhou’s real concern wasn’t teaming up with Qiao Sisi causing trouble, but his lack of acting skills dragging her down.
While they were getting ready, the director had already set up the props.
The script lines had been enlarged and displayed on a whiteboard using a projector.
Qiao Sisi wasn’t looking at Fang Zhou but was focusing on morizing her lines.
She aid to perform without needing a script, lest she be mocked by her peers.
Fang Zhou now had a chance to read through the script and get a clear idea.
The other guests, after reading the script, had intriguing expressions.
“Wow, it’s a confession scene!” Tang Wan whispered excitedly to Zhang Zhiyin.
Zhang Zhiyin’s eyes glimred, reflecting her delicate thoughts.
It was hard to tell if the production team had chosen this romantic scene on purpose or if the fan who wrote it had sohow captured their real-life experiences.
To give them ti to prepare, the show interjected with a comrcial break.
Fans imdiately cried out, “Damn! Cliffhanger!,” and “Tease!”
About three minutes later, the live stream resud, and Fang Zhou and Qiao Sisi were ready.
Fang Zhou held a bouquet of flowers as a prop.
The boy hid the flowers behind his back, walking silently to the bench.
The girl, looking tired and yawning, fiddled with her phone, periodically looking up as if waiting for soone.
“Hey!” Fang Zhou lightly tapped Qiao Sisi’s shoulder, surprising her.
Startled, the girl playfully hit Fang Zhou’s arm, pouting, “What are you doing! You didn’t tell you were coming, I kept calling you!”
Fang Zhou laughed, handing her the flowers, and explained, “Sorry, I saw these beautiful flowers on the way and couldn’t resist buying them.”
“Wow! Champagne roses! They’re lovely!”
Qiao Sisi’s face brightened as she took the bouquet.
“Hehe, Sisi, I have sothing to tell you.”
Fang Zhou sat beside Qiao Sisi, looking serious.
“I’m going abroad to study.”
The girl was stunned, her eyes dimming with surprise and a hint of sadness.
She covered her mouth, barely believing it. “Studying abroad? When? Why so sudden?”
“Next month. I just got the notice today.”
Qiao Sisi diverted her gaze, not daring to look at the boy she liked, forcing a smile and congratulating him.
“Congratulations! It’s such a rare opportunity; you must seize it!”
She spoke each congratulatory word with joy, but her eyes held sadness.
Her beloved was about to be thousands of miles away; how could she truly be happy?
She could only pretend to be happy, not letting him see her true feelings.
After all, they were good friends. She couldn’t selfishly hold him back from his future.
Thinking she had hidden her emotions well, the boy saw right through her.
“Sisi, do you want to go?”
Fang Zhou, sitting beside her, pressed for an answer.
The girl remained silent, not daring to turn her head, afraid he’d see her internal struggle.
The guests in the background, not in the cara fra, slowly stopped smiling. Their emotions were drawn in, or perhaps they were reminded of their own unrequited loves, unable to remain detached spectators.
When outsiders beco involved, the bittersweet feelings of unrequited love hit them like a whirlwind.
Who hasn’t had a heart-wrenching crush or a cherished person they feared losing?
Thus, they couldn’t laugh.
The live stream viewers, too, found themselves imrsed, with the atmosphere shifting.
“Damn! Sisi is acting just like ! I also forced a smile when I was rejected!”
“Waaah, my first love went abroad too. I didn’t even attend the farewell party, fearing I’d lose control and beg him to stay.”
“Who hasn’t had regrets in their youth, wanting to say sothing but not daring to, silently hiding their feelings? Loving soone is hard to hide; it shows in your eyes even if you cover your mouth.”
“I wish I had been brave once. Maybe our story would have ended differently.”
The comnts were filled with nostalgic pain, mirroring the show’s scene and pushing its popularity to a peak.
At this point, soone comnted, “If I’m not mistaken, Fang Zhou was Sisi’s first love, right?”
“Gasp! I rember now! Damn, this person ca prepared!”
“Fang Zhou: Well damn, feels like an arrow to the knee!”
“Are they going to give them a bad ending to match reality?”
Contrary to the viewers’ predictions, the script had a happy ending.
Qiao Sisi’s character hid her feelings, wishing her crush success and a bright future.
But Fang Zhou’s character didn’t want any regrets.
So, the boy confessed.
“Sisi...”
“Yeah?”
“I like you. I want to be with you forever!”
Fang Zhou earnestly told the girl.
Qiao Sisi’s heart raced, her breathing quickening, feeling like she was back to when Fang Zhou first confessed.
He had looked at her with the sa sincere and gentle eyes.
At that mont, she felt like the happiest person in the world.
Now, even in acting, Qiao Sisi couldn’t deny that the feeling of happiness filled her again.
Finally, the girl could no longer hold back her emotions, throwing herself into Fang Zhou’s arms and telling him.
“I like you too, i really really like you!!!”
The script ended perfectly.
Thunderous applause erupted, cheers filled the air, but the two in an embrace didn’t let go.
