Chapter 36: Offering Flowers
The weather in mid-November shouldn’t have been so hot. This day wasn’t chosen well. However, today’s temperature was the highest, at 34 degrees. There wasn’t any wind yet, so it felt muggy and hot.
Chang Qing was wearing the outfit that Lu Hua chose for him. The fabric was close-fitting and the materials were good. But also because it was so close-fitting he felt so stuffy that he almost bent over.
Lu Hua pulled him into the auditorium. When the air conditioner blew on him, Chang Qing instantly felt alive and couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Seeing him like that, Lu Hua couldn’t help but say, “That’s the best you can do? How did you grow up to be so big before?”
Chang Qing said, “Maybe I’ve been spoiled in your home.”
Lu Hua couldn’t help but say, “What my home? Isn’t it also your home? You don’t think of my house as your house!”
Chang Qing was a little surprised. He glanced at Lu Hua and smiled slightly, “You’re right.”
Lu Hua was made uncomfortable by his smile. She snorted coldly, and turned her head, “You manage me like you manage your daughter. Now, you’re all neat and tidy. You’re really a double standard dog.”
Chang Qing said, “That’s not how you use double-standard dog, right?”
Lu Hua said, “Whatever. In short, don’t embarrass me. Hold your head high and have a good posture.”
Many of the parents in the auditorium had already found their seats. Lu Hua said angrily, “These people came so early and snatched the front row. I’m really speechless.”
Chang Qing looked around and said, “Isn’t the back row good, too? I brought my camera. I can still get a picture of you from the back row. “
Lu Hua said angrily: “No, I want to sit in the front row! Wait, I’ll change to the front row.”
Chang Qing took her arm, “How do you want to change it?”
Lu Hua took it for granted and said, “Just ask someone to change it.”
The corner of Chang Qing’s mouth twitched, and he said helplessly, “Why should they give you the position that they’ve already grabbed?”
Lu Hua insisted: “I don’t care, I want to be in the front row!”
As she spoke, she shook off Chang Qing’s hand and walked forward in her flat sandals.
Chang Qing sat to one side and covered his face. He pretended not to know her.
“Chang Qing?” A voice suddenly came to his ears. Chang Qing looked up and saw that it was Qiao Zhenran.
He was a little surprised, but he smiled politely. “Why are you here?”
Qiao Zhenran looked at him and laughed, “My nephew is studying here. How about you?”
Chang Qing said: “My sister is studying here.”
Qiao Zhenran said with a smile, “Sister? Isn’t it your sister-in-law?”
Chang Qing smiled and said, “You know very well.”
Qiao Zhenran smiled slightly, “Since Mr. Lu brought it up, of course I have to find out, so as not to stir up any taboos.”
Chang Qing said, “What taboo?”
Qiao Zhenran smiled and said nothing. After a while, he asked, “What program is your sister performing?”
Chang Qing replied: “She’s playing the piano. The song she’s playing is Mariage d’Amour.”
Lu Hua hadn’t touched the piano in the past few days, so she had crammed a little yesterday. Chang Qing had never learned to play the piano, but he could tell that she was really good at it. She really had the ability.
Qiao Zhenran said: “My nephew is breaking a big boulder on his chest.”
Chang Qing: “…Seriously?”
Qiao Zhenran laughed, “Of course I’m serious.”
While they were talking, Lu Hua ran over and said to Chang Qing, “I’ve changed the seats to the front row. Come and sit down. ”
Chang Qing raised his eyes to look at her, “How did you get it?”
Lu Hua raised her chin and said, “I’m very popular. I can’t go to them directly, but I can go to my classmates.”
Chang Qing: “…”
Okay.
Chang Qing stood up and told Qiao Zhenran, “I’m going.”
Qiao Zhenran nodded. His eyes darted across Chang Qing’s tall and slender back, and he couldn’t help but lick his fangs.
Chang Qing sat in the front row position that Lu Hua had gotten for him. He glanced back, and asked Lu Hua, “Are there any reporters coming for your school’s celebration?”
Lu Hua said absentmindedly, “Yeah.” After a while, she couldn’t bear it anymore and asked him, “Who was that man just now? Are you friends?”
Chang Qing said, “My boss.”
Lu Hua mumbled, “Don’t play with him. I feel that the way he looks at you is wrong.”
Chang Qing looked at her little face and couldn’t help pinching her soft face, “I know. Don’t worry about it.”
Lu Hua slapped his hand. Her beautiful eyes turned round and her cheeks swelled like a squirrel with fried fur. “I told you not to pinch my face! You’re so annoying.”
Chang Qing: “Oh, it won’t happen next time.”
“Hmph, I won’t argue with you.” Lu Hua said. Then she remembered what she wanted to say just now. She looked at Chang Qing’s face seriously and said: “They say there’s a lot of trouble in front of the widow’s door. Don’t get involved with other men and don’t embarrass the Lu family. Otherwise, I’ll be angry.”

Chang Qing felt that it was strange for her to warn him like a little adult, but he took it as a kind gesture and said softly, “Okay, I know what I’m doing.”
Lu Hua nodded in satisfaction. Then she remembered something again, and asked in a low voice, “Have you ordered the flowers yet?”
Chang Qing could not help being speechless when he saw that she was so concerned about the flowers. “How many times have you asked? I ordered it. It’s an oversized bouquet, 199 flowers, and two thousand yuan.”
Lu Hua became vigilant, “I don’t have the money to reimburse you now.”
After a pause, she said critically, “It’s too much. I said I don’t want oversized bundles. I don’t care. I’ll only reimburse you half.”
Chang Qing: “…”
Too lazy to talk to her.
Soon, the school’s anniversary program began. The two hosts gave a passionate performance on the stage and immediately announced the program. The first program was a drum set and metal music, which was played by four students.
All the students in this school had outstanding skills, and they didn’t suffer from stage fright. It was only a performance on the school anniversary, but they all had a kind of overwhelming spirit and vitality. That kind of self-confidence, arrogance, and even conceit wouldn’t appear offensive. On the contrary, it would become their shining point on the stage, making people reluctant to look away.
Watching their performances was an enjoyment. A visual and spiritual enjoyment. Even if the program lasted for seven or eight hours, it wouldn’t be boring and tiresome. After each time, there would be new expectations.
Lu Hua whispered in his ear and said, “It’s almost my turn. See if the flowers have been sent to the school. Then let Jenny get them.”
Jenny was the stylist she hired.
Chang Qing’s attention was withdrawn from the stage. Hearing what Lu Hua said, he suddenly reacted, “Hasn’t the makeup artist come back yet?”
Lu Hua was stunned. She looked back and said, “She hasn’t come back. Ah-Qian isn’t here either.”
Chang Qing frowned and said, “I’ll go out and have a look.”
Lu Hua was still thinking about her flowers, “Then you can grab the flowers on the way. Come back quickly, the next show will be me.”
Chang Qing responded and looked down at her again. Lu Hua noticed his gaze and reminded, “By the way, you have to take a video of me and show it my second brother.”
Chang Qing agreed, got up and walked to the door.
It was already past five o’clock in the evening, and although the sun hadn’t set yet, it had already dyed half of the sky red.
Chang Qing walked out of the door of the auditorium and called Lu Zheng, who answered, “What’s wrong? Did Lu Hua screw up?”
Chang Qing asked, “You really don’t want to come and watch? I think these students are really amazing. Each one is better than the last.”
Lu Zheng said, “It’s just that Lu Hua’s weak.”
Chang Qing said: “That’s not necessarily true. The next show is Lu Hua’s. You can still come in time. At any rate, your sister will perform on stage for the first time. ”
Lu Zheng said, “No, I’ll talk about it next time. I’m very busy.”
Chang Qing took a breath, “Okay, you give me the phone numbers of Lu Hua’s bodyguards and I’ll ask them why they didn’t come in.”
Lu Zheng paused for a moment and said with emotion: “You’re very kind to Lu Hua.”
Chang Qing thought about it, “The first time I saw her, I thought she was like a cocky little chick. I thought she was annoying and cute at the same time. It was so contradictory. Now, she’s like a little yellow chicken that has just hatched. It’s annoying but not annoying. There’s only cuteness left.”
Lu Zheng was speechless. He suspected that this guy had his own sister-control filter. He didn’t want to discuss with him how cute his sister was, so he went back to the previous topic: “I’ll send you the number.” After he finished speaking, he hung up the phone.
Chang Qing held his cell phone and waited for a while. He got the message from Lu Zheng, and just as he was about to open it he heard a soft female voice. Chang Qing raised his eyes and saw that it was the makeup artist who had never came back.
In the auditorium, it was finally time for Lu Hua’s program.
Lu Hua anxiously glanced at the door, but Chang Qing never came back. She bit her lip and got up at the host’s urging and went on stage.
Under the soft and non-flickering light, Lu Hua’s face was delicate, and her pale skin almost gave birth to a soft white light. As soon as she took the stage, she attracted everyone’s attention.
She touched the piano keys with her long fingers, licked her lips, took one last look at the audience, then looked away. She calmed herself down and began to play.
The soothing piano music was gentle and clear as the wind, and filled with the feelings of the player. The performance was impeccable even for the medium difficulty piano pieces.
Everyone in the audience listened quietly, and when the performance was over, everyone gave a warm applause.
Lu Hua opened her eyes. The lights on the stage were a little harsh at this moment. She blinked her eyes slowly and heard the applause from the audience. She stood up and bowed to the audience. From the corner of her eyes, she glanced at Chang Qing’s seat, still there was no one there.
What’s going on? Lu Hua was extremely disappointed. If she wasn’t presented with flowers, she’ll have to step down.1
Just when she was upset, a tall figure came up from the side of the stage, and screams started coming from the audience. Lu Hua blinked and raised her eyes. She happened to meet the gaze of the person who was looking at her affectionately as if looking at a lover.
“You play very well.” The visitor spoke softly and presented her with a bouquet of red roses.
Lu Hua took it in a daze, and bowed slightly to him, “Thank you.”
“No thanks, you’re great.” He praised again.
After speaking, he turned around and stepped down. He was so handsome and elegant that he was the focus of attention wherever he went. Many students in the audience became agitated.
For once, Lu Hua didn’t pay him any attention. She wasn’t even as happy as she expected. She hugged the fiery bouquet of roses and followed him off the stage. She glanced at Chang Qing’s seat for the last time. He didn’t even come back at the end.
What the hell, thought Lu Hua aggrieved.
The author has something to say: the plot will start soon! Excited! I don’t stand FG anymore! Ah, ah, ah, QAQ
