Dragon Raja: Lu Mingfei Returns from Japan

After finishing her homework, she was ready to start "working".

Today, I organized the journal materials with Lu Mingfei. She thought the material was very good and felt it could be added to the next chapter to be updated this week.

Of course, the protagonist of the incident should be Liu Miaomiao instead of myself.

On the Shilan High School forum, many people are urging her to update more often. But she can't help it; she's still a student herself and is quite busy with her studies. She can only spare a little time to write after finishing her homework each night.

More importantly, the person who commissioned her only gave her a small outline each time, so she could only update it little by little according to the outline.

However, the client also said that although the main storyline should follow the outline, she could also add some smaller subplots if she had any good ideas of her own.

Chen Wenwen thought that the plot of editing the journal together was quite good. It wasn't too deliberate, and it could subtly add a little sweetness while deepening the relationship between the male and female leads.

When the female protagonist finally realizes what's happened, she will suddenly discover that she and the male protagonist have been through so much together.

However, as Chen Wenwen was writing today, she started to feel a bit agitated. This often happens when writing, indicating that her current state of mind is not very stable and she needs to take a break and do something else to change her mood.

Chen Wenwen's way of changing her mood is to take a nice, fragrant bath to relieve her fatigue and then drink a glass of milk to replenish her energy!

The showerhead sprayed fine jets of water that flowed over Chen Wenwen's smooth skin and shapely curves, and the warm mist instantly filled the entire bathroom.

"I never expected that Squad Leader Lu would also read Yeats..."

As Chen Wenwen watched the water droplets dripping from her hair, she suddenly thought to herself.

Perhaps it's really hard to meet someone with similar interests at school. Chen Wenwen felt a little happy, but also regretful that Lu Mingfei hadn't joined the literary society.

She mustered up a lot of courage to invite Lu Mingfei to the literary society.

To avoid gossip, she also invited Zhao Menghua to cover for her.

After everything was adjusted, Chen Wenwen, wrapped in a bath towel and with her hair still wet and draped over her fair and smooth back, sat down at her desk again and began to review the article she had written that day.

However, the moment her eyes swept over those densely packed words, she was involuntarily stunned.

It seems that while she was typing, her mind was in a state of confusion and uncertainty, so she didn't pay attention and accidentally made a mistake.

He wrote his own name in every place where Liu Miaomiao's name should have been written.

……

Chapter 176 Strawberry Swiss Roll

October 10, Tuesday, Library.

During the lunch break, Chen Wenwen, the president of the literary society, and Lu Mingfei, an unofficial member, stayed in the club activity room again.

Although the progress of the school magazine was much faster with Lu Mingfei's help, the two still decided to work overtime to finish it because the school anniversary was just around the corner.

Chen Wenwen and Lu Mingfei sat facing each other, the old fan hanging above their heads creaking and turning. The silence had lasted for a long time, and both of them had their heads down.

Actually, the weather has cooled down recently, so there seems to be no need to turn on the fan. But for some reason, the club room feels unusually stuffy today. The stuffiness is making Chen Wenwen irritable and unable to concentrate.

She held the pen, scribbling words on the clean paper, when she suddenly remembered the passage she had written last night. She had originally intended to publish it as a side story, but in the end, she didn't.

Lu Mingfei, of course, had no idea that Chen Wenwen was the ghostwriter for that heinous factual novel on the Shilan Middle School forum. He was also unaware of the little incident involving Chen Wenwen's typo last night.

He was busy with other things after he got home last night. He spent the whole night finishing the rest of the program schedule, and early this morning he went to Chu Zihang's class to find Chu Zihang and handed the program schedule to Chu Zihang for review.

When Lu Mingfei came to find Chu Zihang, it immediately caused quite a stir in the entire second year of high school.

This is a historic meeting between the second-ranked and first-ranked experts on the list of those most deserving of execution. Moreover, Lu Mingfei has come alone, venturing into Chu Zihang's territory with a neatly folded piece of paper in his hand.

Although Lu Mingfei arrived with a smile, everyone felt there was a hint of cunning in that smile. Furthermore, when Chu Zihang took the paper and unfolded it, his usually icy face unusually furrowed, further solidifying the impression that Lu Mingfei had come with a challenge.

If Lu Mingfei had mind-reading abilities, his expression at this moment would surely be quite interesting.

"No problem." Chu Zihang took the program schedule, looked it over carefully, and then nodded.

"Then I'll trouble you, senior brother."

Lu Mingfei felt a little embarrassed, as he felt he had been troubling Chu Zihang a bit too much lately.

Although his senior brother is his senior brother for life, Chu Zihang in this life is not like the one in his previous life, with whom he had shared life-and-death experiences and a deep bond of camaraderie.

Even so, Chu Zihang would always readily agree whenever Lu Mingfei needed his help, which shows that Chu Zihang truly regarded him as his junior brother.

Since his senior was so loyal, the junior couldn't be left behind. Lu Mingfei decided that after the school anniversary celebration, he would find some time to properly thank his stoic senior.

No, could Odin's Nibelungen also be considered a life-or-death experience?

"When are you free to rehearse?" Chu Zihang asked.

Lu Mingfei thought for a moment and said, "Let's wait a few days. I have some things to take care of these next few days."

The editing of the school magazine is about halfway done, and Lu Mingfei plans to make the most of the next few days to finish it for Chen Wenwen.

The reason he didn't tell Chu Zihang directly that he was helping the literary society with the school magazine was because he was afraid that Chu Zihang's gossipy nature would reignite.

“Okay.” Chu Zihang nodded. “You should also inform Liu Miaomiao as soon as possible; she needs some time to prepare.”

Lu Mingfei knew he should tell Xiao Mao. So at lunchtime, he told Liu Miaomiao about it.

Lu Mingfei and Liu Miaomiao were the only ones eating lunch together today; Su Xiaoqiang didn't come to school.

"The pieces you're preparing for the school anniversary performance?" Liu Miaomiao was taken aback. "I've been preparing all along."

"I'm not talking about Exodus," Lu Mingfei said with a smile. "I'm talking about 'The Maiden's Prayer.' Haven't you always wanted to play this piece?"

Liu Miaomiao really wanted to play "A Girl's Prayer," but the program schedule had already been changed, the school had approved it, and the deadline for filing had passed. Even if she wanted to apply to change the program, it was too late.

Liu Miaomiao shook her head with some regret: "But it can't be changed now."

"Actually, I've already discussed it with Senior Brother Chu..."

As Lu Mingfei spoke, he recounted the whole story to Liu Miaomiao.

Lu Mingfei knew that Liu Miaomiao really liked the piece "A Girl's Prayer." So he had the idea of ​​having Liu Miaomiao play her favorite piece, "A Girl's Prayer," again.

However, the process is quite complicated.

First, we learned from Chu Zihang that the final application period for the program has passed, and no changes can be made.

Secondly, the song itself was forced to be changed by Liu Miaomiao's mother through pressure on the school via her connections. Even if the application period hasn't expired, Liu Miaomiao's mother will definitely know immediately once we resubmit.

So after thinking about it, Lu Mingfei decided to bypass the school and change the repertoire himself, so that Liu Miaomiao could play "A Girl's Prayer" on stage.

However, this raises another issue: the lengths of Exodus and The Maiden's Prayer are different.

The piece "The Maiden's Prayer" is much shorter than "Exodus," and the party must end at 10:30 p.m.

If not properly adjusted, the gala may end prematurely.

Leaders from the Municipal Education Bureau will be attending the Shilan Middle School Anniversary Gala. A student arbitrarily changing the song selection is a minor matter; the school might turn a blind eye. However, if it negatively impacts the overall presentation of the gala, then it's a serious incident.

The school punishing me is a minor issue; I'm afraid it might also implicate Liu Miaomiao.

That's why Lu Mingfei sought out Chu Zihang.

Chu Zihang always has a violin solo performance at every gala, and this year was no exception.

Lu Mingfei had looked at the previous program schedule and knew that he would be going on stage before Liu Miaomiao, with only a few acts separating them. Therefore, Lu Mingfei's idea was to take some time away from Chu Zihang's performance to make up for the time Liu Miaomiao missed.

Lu Mingfei initially thought this might be a difficult matter to discuss, since his expressionless senior brother must have prepared a performance for the party for a long time. However, he didn't expect that after hearing Lu Mingfei's words, the senior brother would immediately nod in agreement.

His generosity brought tears to Lu Mingfei's eyes, and he quickly said, "Thank you, senior brother, for your kindness and generosity."

"It's nothing," Chu Zihang said. "Performing a violin solo every year is actually quite boring. Speaking of which, do you have any new programs to recommend?"

Lu Mingfei was taken aback. Originally, he had planned to have his expressionless senior brother simply change to a longer violin piece, but judging from his expressionless senior brother's attitude, he was planning to put together a completely new program.

"Can't you just play the violin?" Lu Mingfei asked cautiously.

Chu Zihang shook his head. "The violin pieces I used to play were already quite long. Even if I could find even longer pieces, I definitely wouldn't be able to learn them in less than a month."

Lu Mingfei thought to himself, "You know there's less than a month left. Wouldn't it be even harder to practice a new program in less than a month?"

As Lu Mingfei was pondering how to persuade his senior brother to turn back from his wrong path and continue playing the violin, Chu Zihang suddenly looked up, stared at Lu Mingfei, and said:

"How about we fencing?"

"Fencing?"

Looking at Chu Zihang's serious expression, Lu Mingfei was stunned. He thought to himself, "Senior brother, you still couldn't help but reveal yourself? I felt that you were not simple the day you picked up Xia Mi at the Chicago train station. Who goes to a hotel with two grown men?"

While he was lost in thought, Chu Zihang continued, saying that he wanted to perform a fencing show at the party, incorporating traditional Chinese martial arts, which would both extend the show and liven up the atmosphere.

While offering a fawning smile and compliments, Lu Mingfei secretly patted his chest, relieved that it wasn't the kind of fencing he had imagined. However, the internet wasn't as developed in 2006, and fencing didn't seem to have acquired any other meanings.

After learning the whole story from Lu Mingfei, Liu Miaomiao pursed her lips, unsure of what to say, her heart surging with mixed emotions.

Although Lu Mingfei spoke of it as if it were nothing, Liu Miaomiao knew that the difficulties involved were far greater than they sounded.

Just creating a new program schedule based on her repertoire was already a huge undertaking. Not to mention that he also had to personally rehearse the program with Chu Zihang.

Unexpectedly, Mingfei had done so much for her behind her back. Liu Miaomiao felt saddened by the immense efforts Lu Mingfei had made, yet also touched by what her boyfriend had done for her.

If it weren't for the large number of people in the cafeteria, Liu Miaomiao might have already given in...

"But I haven't reported it yet..." Liu Miaomiao was touched, but also a little worried. "Is it really okay?"

Lu Mingfei gently pinched Liu Miaomiao's nose: "It's okay to be a little willful once in a while, right?"

Liu Miaomiao wrinkled her nose, playfully slapped Lu Mingfei's hand away, but nodded and answered with a bright nod, "Mm."

……

With only twenty days left until the school anniversary celebration, and needing to rehearse a program with his expressionless senior, Lu Ming had to finish all the club publication work as soon as possible.

So this afternoon, he didn't go home with Liu Miaomiao, but went to the library with Chen Wenwen again. The two of them sat in the same seats as yesterday, busy with the school magazine.

However, Chen Wenwen said that she had some things to do at home today and had to go home a little earlier, so she couldn't stay up as late as yesterday. Therefore, the two of them only stayed at the book section for an hour and left around six o'clock.

Although the Mid-Autumn Festival has passed, it didn't get dark particularly quickly. As we walked out of the library, we were greeted by a beautiful sunset, with birds chirping and singing. The two of us walked side by side in the deserted campus.

Chen Wenwen walked home today; her father didn't come to pick her up.

In fact, most of the time, Chen Wenwen walks home. Only when it rains or snows, or when she gets home late, will her family drive to pick her up.

Chen Wenwen's home and Lu Mingfei's uncle's home are not far apart. In their previous life, during their three years of high school, the two always walked together until they reached a fork in the road not far from their homes, at which point they would wave goodbye.

Lu Mingfei and Chen Wenwen walked together for three years, witnessing spring breezes, summer rains, autumn dews, and winter frosts, yet Chen Wenwen's pure and beautiful profile remained unchanged. It was because of this that Lu Mingfei had the misconception that "Chen Wenwen might also like me."

It turns out that it really was just an illusion. No one can walk the entire road with anyone else forever; we only accompany each other occasionally through a muddy stretch of road.

Lost in his memories, Lu Mingfei walked side by side with Chen Wenwen, completely unaware that they had embarked on the same road home.
