Dragon Raja: Lu Mingfei's Bullet Screen Wish Machine
Chapter 51 Duet
Lu Mingfei looked at Xia Mi again.
Current Favorability Level: -28 → -20
"Because I didn't show any hostility towards her son, my favorability rating has improved..."
Lu Mingfei gradually came to understand everything.
The "two-way journey" between the Spirit Pearl and the Demon Pill caused quite a stir. Even Chu Zihang's stepfather, Lu Tianming, noticed it. He apologized to the bosses around him and came to Lu Mingfei with a glass of champagne.
Shilan Middle School has two municipal-level outstanding students this year: Chu Zihang and Lu Mingfei. As the saying goes, "a beautiful sedan chair needs many people to carry it," and Boss Lu was very happy about Lu Mingfei's arrival.
However, he also knew that young people would be less relaxed when their elders were present, so after exchanging a few pleasantries, he left with a smile.
Then the band entered, carrying cameras and microphones, and the piano that had been set up in the courtyard beforehand finally came in handy.
Led by the pianist, the ensemble music began, and Lu Mingfei listened intently—it was the Blue Danube.
Lu Mingfei's expression became subtle.
As the king of waltzes, the Blue Danube's fame can only be described as magnificent, making it most suitable for accompanying dances.
The problem is that many schools in China use it as the start and end of get out of class or as a morning bell...
So much so that when this piece of music actually went back to its original purpose, Lu Mingfei had a strange feeling.
He turned to look to the side, where Chu Zihang was studying the collection of books. Lu Mingfei's lips twitched, and he was about to speak when his hand was suddenly grabbed.
"Senior brother, let's dance."
The girl smiled brightly and extended an invitation to Lu Mingfei.
Under the sunlight, Xia Mi's smile was so dazzling that it caused Lu Mingfei's heart to ache faintly.
A great mother, to protect her child, forced a smile in front of a villain, and even let him take advantage of her...
Lu Mingfei subconsciously tilted his head, not to avoid her gaze, but to avoid his own noble conscience.
If it were the old Lu Mingfei, in a moment of impulse, he would definitely have told Xia Mi the whole truth and told her that he was not a bad person.
However, Lu Mingfei is now much more careful in his actions. Given Xia Mi's current level of favorability, if he were to suddenly confess now, she would most likely suspect that he has other ulterior motives.
Moreover, Xia Mi is currently under immense mental stress and is easily prone to stress.
If someone mistakenly thinks he's about to attack and immediately activates his Spinosaurus form, they might accidentally injure someone else.
While the mother and son's background is indeed pitiful, the guests at the birthday party are equally innocent and should not be dragged into it.
Lu Mingfei had never seen dragon breath, but he had seen cat hiss. He knew he couldn't continue to provoke her now. He should wait until Hajimi calmed down before talking to her.
Holding Chu Zihang's beautiful mother's little hand, Lu Mingfei had mixed feelings—he was a pure-hearted warrior who never bullied the weak, and even when playing StarCraft with Lao Tang, he deliberately let him win.
But why, why did things turn out this way?
Even so, when the music started and Xia Mi's hand was on his arm, Lu Mingfei still naturally started to spin around.
There's no way around it; the professional-level dance skill level provided by the system is just that high. The so-called "professional-level" means that if he's paired with a dance partner of similar skill, he can compete in world-class competitions.
Lu Mingfei had always thought of himself as someone who was completely uncoordinated, but now he dances the waltz as easily as eating and drinking.
From an outsider's perspective, it looked as if this guy had roller skates on his feet. The clean-cut young man in the blue shirt led the beautiful girl, spinning and shifting to the rhythm of the music with unbelievable smoothness.
Or rather, it wasn't dancing at all; it was practically floating on the ground!
The younger guests couldn't help but whistle. Such exquisite dance skills are rarely seen even on television, let alone live. The more composed guests smiled and nodded slightly to show their approval.
While most people's attention was drawn to Lu Mingfei, Chu Zihang found a slightly secluded spot, opened the literary society's collection of essays, and prepared to concentrate on studying Lu Mingfei's masterpiece.
But before he could turn to that page, a woman's coquettish voice entered Chu Zihang's ears:
"Son, son, I want to jump too!"
The beautiful 37-year-old mother rushed over and shook his shoulder without saying a word.
Chu Zihang reluctantly put down the collection of essays. His mother was a dancer, and seeing how well Lu Mingfei danced, she was probably tempted to secretly compete with him.
It's not easy to accept that this woman is your mother. Fortunately, Chu Zihang is used to it. As long as she doesn't hug his head and kiss him in front of guests, it's fine. A long time ago, Chu Zihang felt that he was already an adult and shouldn't be treated like a child. Unfortunately, his mother and her old girlfriends didn't think so.
Chu Zihang followed his mother into the venue. Before the song was even over, Su Xiaoyan stopped dancing with a long face. In front of Lu Mingfei, who was scurrying away, she felt like a clumsy idiot.
Actually, Su Xiaoyan's dancing wasn't bad, but firstly, dancing is something that's easily compared to others. Throughout the birthday party, anyone dancing next to Lu Mingfei would be made to look like a puppet. Secondly, while others are just amateurs and it's understandable that they can't outdance a young person, she's a professionally trained dancer, which makes it even more awkward.
This is the first time in Ms. Su's performing career that she has suffered such a devastating blow. She explained it by saying that she was not in good condition today, and that she used to dance indoors, so the lawn affected her performance.
Normally, Chu Zihang is the type of person who sides with his own family regardless of right or wrong, but he also has to tell the truth:
"Mom, let's not even talk about now. Even your dancing back then wasn't fast enough, much less aggressive."
Chu Zihang was also somewhat surprised by Lu Mingfei's amazing performance.
As Lu Mingfei's first observer at Shilan Middle School, Chu Zihang has a deep understanding of Lu Mingfei; he knows more about him than Lu Mingfei's classmates do.
Perhaps Lu Mingfei was a rough gem, but he lacked the opportunity to showcase his talent, which buried his potential... Chu Zihang offered his own explanation.
As the music ended, Lu Mingfei bowed slightly, and Xia Mi followed suit by nodding in return, which was met with enthusiastic applause.
After seeing him release Xia Mi's hand and escort the pretty girl back to her seat, several bolder girls immediately approached Lu Mingfei, ready to invite him to dance.
Lu Mingfei glanced at Xiaolongnu's favorability bar—why is this different from the one Ga La gave to Muli? He had jumped so much, yet Xia Mi's favorability hadn't increased at all.
Perhaps it is because those who are not of our kind are bound to have different hearts.
Lu Mingfei vaguely felt that his choice of words was inappropriate, but given his level of education, he couldn't find a more suitable one for the time being.
Just then, he heard the wishing machine "ding".
Lu Mingfei sensed something and looked at Chen Wenwen not far away.
Current Favorability Level: 20 → 25
