Chapter 28 Sounds Pleasant! Sounds Really Pleasant!
“You expected to use such an inferior bait to goad the mysterious man out. I don’t know whether your intelligence is low or you think that everyone else has the same low intelligence as you!”
“Why would the mysterious man, who is like God, pay attention to you. Keep dreaming!”
“You say the mysterious man is a coward. Why don’t you look and measure yourselves? Challenge the freshman Chen Cong first if you have the ability. If you can beat him, then you can talk about challenging the mysterious man. If the mysterious man accepts any challenge from anyone, it will lower his status a lot.”
“I strongly support you to challenge Chen Cong. I hope this can remind you of your low IQ.”
Soon, people on BBS supported the mysterious man overwhelmingly. They directly flamed several people who provoked the disputes and made them cease all activities.
Although the mysterious man was scolded, everyone still looked forward to seeing the mysterious man appear again.
Especially those students who would graduate within a year. They hoped to find out who the mysterious man was in the last year!
When Jiang Miaoyu was back in the dormitory, she heard from her roommates that the mysterious man did not appear and sighed in relief.
“Fortunately, the mysterious man did not appear, otherwise, I would really miss the opportunity to see him.”
The next day.
As the enlarged class of three majors ended – Medical Biology, Medical Law and History of Chinese Medicine that had more than one hundred people total, Fang Qiu’s course also ended for the time being on the second day in the university.
After dinner, under the ambiguous gazes of his roommates, Fang Qiu planned to go to the small garden again.
But someone suddenly stopped him when he was walking.
It was Li Qingshi.
Fang Qiu looked at the person who appeared suddenly in front of him.
The person was looking at him with a serious face.
“Fang Qiu, are you now rehearsing the Start-of-Term Ceremony song with Jiang Miaoyu?”
Li Qingshi interrogated coldly with a condescending tone.
In his eyes, Fang Qiu was chasing someone out of his league.
Fang Qiu just glanced at him lightly. He went around Li Qingshi and walked on.
Li Qingshi was stupefied by this sudden disregard and immediately darkened his face. He stepped swiftly towards Fang Qiu again and stopped him. He gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice, “I’m asking you, don’t you hear me?”
Who was this guy?
The Chairman of the Student Union in the School of Chinese Medicine.
The head of all the students in the School of Chinese Medicine including Fang Qiu!
God’s child!
“Which student doesn’t show respect to me when seeing me? But today I was unexpectantly ignored again by a freshman!
“The day before yesterday on the playground, he ignored me, while today he also dared to ignore me!
“Who do you think you are!”
Fang Qiu did not even look at him this time and directly went around him.
Li Qingshi burst into anger because he was ignored twice successively. He suddenly reached out his hands to pull Fang Qiu.
But Fang Qiu seemed to know it beforehand.
He quietly changed the swinging trajectory of his arms, which made Li Qingshi grab nothing.
Now Li Qingshi was even angrier!
He originally intended to have a nice talk with Fang Qiu, but he could not suppress the anger in his heart this time, especially when he saw Fang Qiu and Jiang Miaoyu become entangled with each other repeatedly. This made his anger rush straight to his head.
Li Qingshi appeared in front of Fang Qiu for the third time with a very gloomy face. He glared at Fang Qiu and said in a cold voice, “I warn you for the last time, stay away from Jiang Miaoyu. You’d better quit the performance of the Start-of-Term Ceremony on your own, otherwise, don’t blame me for my impoliteness!”
“Impoliteness?”
Fang Qiu raised his head and smiled. He looked at Li Qingshi and said, “Go ahead.”
After that, he went around again and walked on.
Li Qingshi turned his head and stared at Fang Qiu’s back with his fists clenched, which finally turned into an angry snort.
About Li Qingshi’s threat, Fang Qiu didn’t take it to heart at all. He had overcome so many obstacles with his flexibility. Who had he been afraid of!
Before he arrived at the garden, Fang Qiu saw a group of people.
One of them was the girl who wanted to jump off a building to commit suicide the day before yesterday.
Her family members surrounded the girl with a distressed look and walked outside the campus.
Not only did Fang Qiu notice this group of people, but also the students around did.
Hearing the discussion, Fang Qiu just knew that the girl’s parents rushed here overnight with fear, from thousands of miles away, after hearing that their daughter tried to commit suicide.
The final result was to drop out.
It was the only choice for the university, the girl, and the girl’s parents.
It was also a helpless choice.
Such being the case, the schoolwork was no longer important to her parents. The most important thing was to keep their daughter alive.
The girl dropped out, but the boy Chi Xiang was only suspended for a year and received a serious warning.
How ironic and ridiculous.
But Fang Qiu did not forget the words he said that ‘I will beat you every time I see you’.
Fang Qiu watched the girl disappearing at the gate and silently turned to leave.
When he arrived at the garden, Jiang Miaoyu had already arrived. She was sitting on a bench beside the stone table under the tree.
“Sorry, I’m late.”
Fang Qiu apologized hastily.
It was really inappropriate to let a girl wait for him.
“It’s okay. I also just arrived here.”
“How’s the Cantonese study going?”
Jiang Miaoyu asked with concern and then carefully observed Fang Qiu’s expression. She did not see any uneasiness but a face of calmness. She immediately realized that Fang Qiu may really master it.
“I have basically grasped it,”
Fang Qiu said.
“Awesome!”
Jiang Miaoyu exclaimed and asked, “Yesterday, you must have worked very hard after we parted?”
“Just so-so, just so-so.”
Fang Qiu said with a little embarrassment on his face.
He didn’t dare to tell the truth that he had only listened for ten minutes to learn. Since then, he didn’t study anymore.
Jiang Miaoyu only thought that Fang Qiu was being modest and said, “First, we each sing once and listen to how each other sings. Then we sing the chorus several times. How about that?”
Fang Qiu nodded in agreement.
So Jiang Miaoyu first sang once in Mandarin.
“Every student,
Find a seat,
It’s your Start-of-Term Ceremony.”
The first line made Fang Qiu feel quite amazed.
It sounds pleasant.
Listening to a beautiful person sing a beautiful song was the best enjoyment.
“Look ahead,
Imagine how beautiful it is to wear a square cap,
First pay unforgettable tuition,
No impoliteness next year,
Tomorrow is always a new term,
Life Tenure.
At the end of the song,
Jiang Miaoyu asked with a smile, “How was it?”
“Sounds pleasant!”
Said Fang Qiu with his thumbs up.
“Thank you, it’s your turn.”
Jiang Miaoyu thanked him, and then got into a posture of listening respectfully.
The key point of this song depended more on whether Fang Qiu’s Cantonese pronunciation was accurate and whether the song could be sung as wonderfully as the original.
Fang Qiu cleared his throat and then sang softly.
“Every student,
Find a seat,
It’s your Start-of-Term Ceremony.”
The first line.
Jiang Miaoyu’s eyes lit up immediately.
“What accurate pronunciation!”
Although she did not know Cantonese, she had heard this song countless times. She definitely recognized that Fang Qiu’s Cantonese pronunciation was extremely accurate.
“No wonder he was so calm. As expected, he was confident for a reason!”
She continued listening.
Instead of focusing on the pronunciation, she was actually attracted to the singing of Fang Qiu.
“Sounds too beautiful!
Not inferior to the original by Hacken Lee!”
Jiang Miaoyu no longer thought about how to identify the flaws in the song but enjoyed the wonderful song from Fang Qiu to her heart’s content.
The song was over.
“How about that?”
Fang Qiu asked Jiang Miaoyu with the same question as before.
“Sounds really pleasant!”
Said Jiang Miaoyu sincerely.
“You flatter me,”
Said Fang Qiu humbly.
“No.” Jiang Miaoyu shook her head and said.
It was the first time she had heard a boy singing so sweetly.
No matter from the perspective of tone, intonation or emotion, he really grasped the essence perfectly.
In the Mid-Autumn Festival Party last week, she didn’t listen to Fang Qiu’s singing very carefully due to the special environmental problems.
Today was their first time carefully listening to each other’s singing.
They found that it sounded really pleasant.
One was “Sounds pleasant”.
One was “Sounds really pleasant”.
Neither of them was flattering each other but gave a genuine comment from their hearts.
“In that case, we... could cooperate?” asked Fang Qiu.
“Absolutely.”
Jiang Miaoyu took a deep look at Fang Qiu and said, “I didn’t expect your musical talent to be so high. You have learned a Cantonese song in such a short time and performed it perfectly.
“High musical talent and bonesetting ability. Student Fang, you seem to have a lot of secrets!”
Fang Qiu only smiled slightly as he heard that and did not answer.
“Ha!”
At this time, three girls suddenly appeared, jumping towards Jiang Miaoyu and Fang Qiu, which gave Jiang Miaoyu a good scare.
Three of them all sized them up vaguely and said with a smile, “So there you are.”
Then they pointed to Fang Qiu and said, “Student Fang, you mustn’t abduct our campus belle away!”
Hearing this, Jiang Miaoyu face went red slightly and quickly stood up, introducing to Fang Qiu in sequence, “These are my three roommates, Huang Manman, Cheng Lin, and Yuan Bei.”
Fang Qiu also quickly stood up and said, “Hello, I am Fang Qiu.”
“We know you!”
Yuan Bei, who was tall and slim, sized him up and said, “You are the one who used the stunt of ‘The Hero Saves a Beauty’ to cure our Miaoyu’s foot injury, right?”
“It was not ‘The Hero Saves a Beauty’. It was just a small thing,” said Fang Qiu at once.
“You are very modest, but if you are going to chase after our Miaoyu, you have to prepare for a long battle. Because our Miaoyu said she planned to study hard without having a relationship in the first two years of college.”
Yuan Bei said as she blinked at Fang Qiu.
“Well...”
Fang Qiu was embarrassed. He admitted that he had a trace of affection in his heart.
Otherwise yesterday, he would not have choked up at the phrase of “Aren’t you still alive and well?” from Jiang Miaoyu.
“But is it really good to make it so frank and open?”
Jiang Miaoyu pushed Yuan Bei because her good roommate just betrayed her.
Not having a relationship in the first two years of college was the bottom line that she set before entering the university.
But now she felt more liberated somehow.
Yuan Bei laughed and romped around with Jiang Miaoyu. And soon the other two people Huang Manman and Cheng Lin also joined them.
Regardless of the boy looking at them from the side.
At once, the garden was filled with cheers and laughter.
“The youngest, so there you are!”
A loud voice came, acting very surprised.
Fang Qiu turned his head and saw his three roommates who were in a hurry, walk towards him.
Fang Qiu was curious how these three people arrived at the most opportune moment while he was going to say hello.
But the three people directly ignored Fang Qiu and rushed to the four girls. They affably said hello, “Hello, four beauties. We are Fang Qiu’s roommates. Nice to meet you!”
After that, Sun Hao also added a word, “We haven’t expected to see four great beauties just half a month since the semester began. We are really very lucky!”
Zhu Benzheng and Zhou Xiaotian also nodded their heads with straight faces to show agreement.
Fang Qiu at one side looked at them quite surprisedly. Three of them now behaved with absolutely straight faces, which was completely different from their usual casual behavior.
“What is going on today?”
The four girls who romped around hurriedly separated when they saw someone coming.
They couldn’t help sniggering with a “puff” when they heard the three boys speak like they were narrating.
Seeing the beauties smiling, the three of them felt happy inwardly and was about to show themselves off again.
At this time, Fang Qiu came up, threw his arms around three boys’ necks and said, “Well, since you are here, please listen to the chorus by Jiang Miaoyu and me.”
“Yes!”
Jiang Miaoyu immediately grabbed her roommates to let them sit on the stone bench and said, “This is the first time we have cooperated on this song. Please give us some feedback.”
“Okay!”
Zhu Benzheng responded first and then quietly sat beside Wang Yu immediately.
Sun Hao and Zhou Xiaotian glanced at each other, both seeing the same regret and contempt in each other’s eyes.
They regretted that they were so late that the oldest took the initiative!
This bench could seat six people. The three girls sat together, so the three boys also must sit together. In this case, there was a boy and a girl sitting next to each other.
And this opportunity turned out to be snatched away by Zhu Benzheng who looked serious usually.
“I really despise this stuffy guy!”
Fang Qiu and Jiang Miaoyu stood in front of six people and were going to sing the chorus for the first time.
