Chapter 132 Lu Qingxi Plays the Piano
On the day of rehearsal two weeks later, Chu Rouxuan persuaded Lu Qingxi to go to the auditorium with the students of Class A2 to attend the rehearsal. Along the way, Chu Rouxuan praised Lu Qingxi like a little fan: "Qingqing, your singing is really beautiful. This rehearsal will definitely surprise everyone!"
Jimo Chu watched all this silently from the side. He had gradually gotten used to the fact that Xiao Lan and Chu Rouxuan kept him away from Lu Qingxi every day. Although he felt a little disappointed, he knew that he was only Lu Qingxi's boyfriend in name only and did not have much right to interfere in her life.
However, something unexpected happened at the rehearsal. When the host announced, "Now, please welcome Lu Qingxi from Class A2 to perform a guzheng solo," the entire auditorium fell into a brief silence. Lu Qingxi stood on the stage and asked in confusion, "Do you have a guzheng here?" The people in the Arts Department looked at each other, and no one answered. Chu Rouxuan searched her pockets and found that she didn't bring her cell phone. She immediately said something to Lu Qingxi and ran out.
At this time, Helian Che rushed to the scene. A few minutes ago, he saw the list on the official account, realized something was wrong, and immediately rushed to check the situation. When he heard Lu Qingxi's question, his heart tightened, and he strode forward and stood in front of Lu Qingxi: "I'll have someone deliver it. It will take ten minutes." After that, he sent a message to his driver, asking him to quickly deliver the guzheng at home.
Helian Che's actions really surprised everyone present. They whispered and talked about it. Everyone saw that Helian Che had a special attitude towards Lu Qingxi, which seemed to be beyond the scope of ordinary friends. Jimo Chu also noticed the discussions around him. He immediately walked to Lu Qingxi and blocked her again, so that Helian Che could only see his back.
Everyone's curiosity was completely aroused, and their eyes moved back and forth between Lu Qingxi, Jimo Chuan and Helian Che, trying to find more clues. Song Wen, who was standing in the backstage, couldn't help but lift a corner of the curtain, revealing a curious look, and was surprised by the development in front of him.
Ten minutes later, the guzheng was delivered to the auditorium on time. Jimo Chu and Helian Che worked together tacitly and quickly placed the guzheng on the stage. When everything was ready, Lu Qingxi stood on the stage and gently stroked the strings, and a melodious guzheng solo resounded throughout the auditorium.
Her performance was as natural and smooth as flowing water, and every note seemed to carry emotion, making people intoxicated. Everyone was impressed by her talent and applauded her wonderful performance.
Jimo Chuan and Helian Che also stood in the audience, quietly appreciating Lu Qingxi's performance.
The obsession in their eyes was like a deep lake, getting deeper and deeper. However, Chu Rouxuan's arrival was like a breeze, awakening them from this obsession. She looked at Lu Qingxi on the stage, her eyes flashing with excitement, and she couldn't help but exclaimed: "Qingqing, you are really excellent!"
After the song ended, Lu Qingxi received warm applause. Her performance not only intoxicated everyone present, but also made her friends proud of her. However, Jimo Chen did not intend to let the matter go. He walked up to Helian Che and said in a stronger tone: "Everyone in our class knows that the program we reported was a chorus of the whole class. President He, please give all the students in our class an explanation as to why it became a solo for my girlfriend." When he mentioned the word "girlfriend", his tone became even stronger, and he was obviously very dissatisfied with the matter.
Helian Che frowned and looked at Jimo Chen deeply. Then he relaxed his frown and looked at Lu Qingxi on the stage, his eyes full of apology. He spoke softly, "I will definitely tell you the truth."
As soon as Helian Che finished speaking, Song Wen pulled open the curtain and walked out. He walked straight to Lu Qingxi with a trace of guilt on his face. He apologized to Lu Qingxi and frankly admitted that he had acted on his own initiative without considering the feelings of others.
Turning to Helian Che, Song Wen's voice was resolute: "Chairman He, I don't think I am worthy of continuing to serve as the Minister of Literature and Art." His words revealed deep self-blame and apology, as if he was seeking punishment for his mistakes.
When Lu Qingxi heard Song Wen's resignation, her heart tightened. She knew that she had made the other party very unhappy with her sudden arrival in the Arts Department, and she was also responsible for the current situation. She quickly spoke to comfort him: "Song Wen, this matter is not that serious. I accept your apology."
However, Song Wen did not seem to accept Lu Qingxi's consolation. He looked at Lu Qingxi deeply, with a complex emotion flashing in his eyes. He insisted on his decision and believed that resigning was the best explanation for this matter.
Helian Che looked at the scene in front of him and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He knew that Song Wen had always been a responsible person, but this time he did go a little too far. He pondered for a moment, then nodded and approved Song Wen's resignation application on the spot.
Jimo Chuan stood there quietly watching Song Wen's back, with mixed emotions in his heart that were hard to describe. He knew that there must be other people behind this incident, and Song Wen, as one of the parties involved, must know more inside information. Therefore, he decided to have a good talk with Song Wen, hoping to uncover the truth of the matter and remove the hidden dangers around Lu Qingxi.
He asked Chu Rouxuan to accompany Lu Qingxi to ensure her emotional stability and safety. Then, he chased in the direction where Song Wen left.
Song Wen heard the hurried footsteps behind him and turned around to see Jimo Tan. A flash of understanding flashed in his eyes, as if he had already expected Jimo Tan to come to him. He asked calmly, "What do you want to know?"
Jimo Chen didn't expect Song Wen to be so direct, but he didn't intend to beat around the bush. He looked Song Wen straight in the eye and asked, "Did someone else suggest you do this?"
Song Wen was silent for a while, as if he was weighing the pros and cons. In the end, he chose to speak. He thought of Lu Qingxi, and a complex emotion surged in his heart. He took a deep breath and said, "Protect her, and keep her away from the Chu family and the Zhai family."
After saying this, Song Wen turned and left. His back looked particularly lonely and determined in the afterglow of the setting sun.
After Lu Qingxi learned the news from Jimo Chuan, she felt a chill in her heart. She originally thought that Song Wen was just upset because he was dissatisfied with her being parachuted into the Art Department, but she didn't expect that Chu Ye and Zhai Xingchen were behind it. This truth surprised her and she felt a little worried.
She recalled her experiences during this period. She seemed to have never appeared in front of the two men. She had been very low-key. Why did these two people still make things difficult for her? Her vigilance and dislike for these two people directly entered the next stage.
