Chapter 35 - League of Poor Students (12) (1/2)
What was a drama?
In her memory, a drama was a kind of grandiose performance that she couldn’t understand.
Ming Shu didn’t understand the reason for Jin Yuqi to sign up for her, but she knew it mustn’t be good.
Would I be afraid of that?
The merrier it is, the more entertaining it will be.
Not understanding why Ming Shu promised the head of the Cultural Committee, Ye Miaomiao, holding her hand, asked Ming Shu, “Mengmeng, you didn’t sign up in person. Why did you agree?”
“It’s just a drama. There’s nothing to be afraid of.” Ming Shu opened her chips, speaking slowly but arrogantly. “I’m the Goblin of Acting. If they play a drama game with me, I will thoroughly defeat them.”
“Mengmeng, you haven’t acted in a drama before,” Ye Miaomiao said nervously. “It’s more difficult than you imagine.”
Ming Shu patted Ye Miaomiao on the shoulder, a smile on her face. “Don’t worry, there’s nothing that I can’t deal with.”
“…”
Ming Shu didn’t worry at all, but Ye Miaomiao was extremely concerned.
Ye Miaomiao put her hand against her forehead for a while. Finally, she sighed and signed up too.
She couldn’t let Mengmeng be bullied by others.
…
After school, Ming Shu went to the playground and found the two followers already there.
Seeing her coming, the two ran to her, smiling with flattery. “Sister-in-law, we’ll clean the playground for you. You needn’t come anymore. Don’t worry, we’ll complete the task well.”
“Who is your sister-in-law?” Ming Shu smiled. “I’ll hit you if you call me that again.”
“…” Our Big Brother likes you, aren’t you our sister-in-law? Or are you Big Sister?the two thought.
Ming Shu glanced at the two followers; the two lowered their heads. Okay, since she said so, she wasn’t their sister-in-law. Anyhow, they listened to their Big Brother.
…
Ming Shu played the role of the witch who curses the princess. She didn’t need to show up in the performance for a long time, so most of the time she sat there and ate while the others were rehearsing.
Jin Yuqi joined the drama too. But amazingly, she didn’t make trouble for Ming Shu and rehearsed seriously.
Maybe because of Jin Yuqi’s deliberate guidance, all of others isolated Ming Shu. Fortunately, Ye Miaomiao was there too, so Ming Shu wouldn’t be so bored as to make trouble for them.
“Hello, Grandmother, what are you doing?”
“I’m spinning. You see, it’s very interesting. Do you want to try?”
Now, the scene they were rehearsing was that the princess was on her fifteenth birthday and was about to enter a deep sleep because she was stabbed by a spindle’s needle.
The princess was Jin Yuqi. Although she wasn’t a professional actress, Jin Yuqi’s acting skills were good. She could act well without any special classes.
Even the teacher who inspected them nodded to themself, showing satisfaction toward Jin Yuqi.
When Jin Yuqi was holding the spindle prop, a person rushed toward Jin Yuqi angrily. “Jin Yuqi, why did you occupy our classroom?”
The rehearsal was interrupted; everyone looked at the girl student who rushed in just now.
“Is she the Qian Duoduo from Class F? Why is she making trouble for Yuqi again? She ruined Yuqi’s uniform before and Yuqi forgave her. Shouldn’t she feel grateful to Yuqi? I don’t know where her courage comes from.”
“Alas, such ugly ducklings always think themselves swans that could one day fly.”
“I don’t know why she’s so confident. She is so shameless and even thinks Senior Jiang will like her. Senior Jiang matches our Yuqi well, they should be a couple…”
A good show was coming.
Ming Shu shifted to another position and continued eating, her gaze on that girl student—the original female protagonist.
