I downloaded the app and discovered that my childhood sweetheart's affection level had skyrocke

"Wanwan."

"what?"

"you are cute."

"..."

Bai Wanwan paused in her action of fixing Lin Zhou's bangs. She had been carefully checking to make sure nothing was showing, but after hearing this, she looked up at Lin Zhou, her ear tips gradually turning red.

like……

Wearing this was definitely the right choice.

Yesterday, when she tried on the dress, she felt that it was a bit troublesome because she would always step on the hem when walking. But now, with Lin Zhou looking at her like this, she suddenly felt that wearing it every day was not a problem.

She wore it only for Lin Zhou to see.

Ok.

Bai Wanwan deliberately moved closer. She knew that her biggest advantage was her looks, and compared to Coco and the others, she couldn't compare in terms of figure.

Of course, he might be a bit better than Yu Ning.

But Lin Zhou was attracted to her looks.

"You're... alright too." Bai Wanwan looked away, her fingers landing back on Lin Zhou's bangs, making sure his eyes were completely out of sight before she withdrew her hand with satisfaction.

"Just alright?" Lin Zhou raised an eyebrow, reaching out to adjust his cloak. "When I looked in the mirror just now, I felt pretty handsome. Hero Lin Zhou, I feel like I'm ready to start conquering the Demon King."

"Narcissism."

"Then I'll steal the princess away."

"..."

Bai Wanwan looked at Lin Zhou, and after a few seconds, she gently reached out and grabbed the hem of his shirt. "Okay."

Lin Zhou: "?"

yooooooooo~

so cute.

Really like.

"God... please give me more attributes!" Lin Zhou slid to his knees, pounding the floor. "I want to..."

Bai Wanwan: "?"

Before Lin Zhou could continue, the students in charge of rehearsals clapped their hands, "Alright, alright, stop chatting, let's go over the positions one last time, the first performance starts in fifteen minutes!"

Upon hearing this, the students who had been running around quickly gathered together.

The play was staged in Class 3A. Most of the original desks and chairs were moved to the back, leaving only a few rows for the audience. The stage and a large open space in front were cleared out as the performance area, while several blackout curtains were stretched across the windows to serve as a temporary backstage.

The props are designed to be functional.

The castle in the distance was drawn on cardboard, the trees were made of green foam board, and the throne was even a chair borrowed from the principal's office, only covered with a layer of gold cloth. At first glance, it actually looked quite similar.

Lin Zhou stared at the throne for a while. "Isn't this really the chair from the principal's office?"

The student in charge of props was silent for two seconds, then said, "Shut up. Don't ask so many questions about the production. The budget is limited, you know?"

"..."

The final take wasn't a complete performance; it was just a reconfirmation of a few potentially problematic sections. Lin Zhou was mainly responsible for fighting several monsters, rescuing Bai Wanwan who was imprisoned, and finally, the two of them left the castle hand in hand.

It's a classic style, but Bai Wanwan likes it.

To be precise, she seems to only like the part where she and Lin Zhou end up together. When the screenwriter asked her if there was anything that needed to be changed, she even seriously suggested changing the last ten minutes to the daily life of the hero and the princess after their marriage.

Jumping directly from the fairy tale to the post-wedding epilogue.

The screenwriter didn't agree, and Wanwan was very disappointed.

"Remember not to walk too fast here, Wanwan's dress is hard to walk in," the student in charge of rehearsals reminded Lin Zhou again. "Last time you almost made her fall by pulling her so hard."

"Wasn't that because you weren't familiar with it the first time?" Lin Zhou said, glancing at Bai Wanwan beside him. "Don't worry, I'll go slower this time."

"Um."

Bai Wanwan nodded gently; she didn't actually mind falling.

It's best if two people fall together.

Then they were pressed together.

I like it, ....

Just as she was thinking about how to fall more naturally, the noise outside the classroom gradually increased. What used to be just occasional passersby had now gathered at the doorway with a number of tourists and students from the college.

The students in charge of reception stood outside to greet people, and soon people began to sit down on the chairs at the front of the classroom, with even the last two rows being more than half full.

"So many people?" Lin Zhou peeked half his head out from behind the blackout cloth.

He originally thought that it would be good if a dozen or so people came to the first show, but the name Bai Wanwan was obviously more attractive than the play itself. There were even people at the door asking if Bai Wanwan was the princess in every show.

"That's normal, Bai Wanwan is very famous in the academy," said the boy dressed as the Demon King. "Look at those guys in front of you, I bet they came specifically to see her."

Lin Zhou glanced in the direction the other person was looking.

What are you looking at?

Lin Zhou wanted to say something more, but he noticed several furtive figures in the first row of the audience.

It was the same group of girls again.

The girl in charge of props sat on the far side, with three friends who seemed to have appeared out of nowhere beside her. The group of friends had been staring at Lin Zhou's bangs ever since they sat down.

They don't even bother to pretend to talk.

"..."

No.

Are you coming again?

"They're watching you again." Bai Wanwan noticed as well.

"Let's see, it's not like I'll lose a piece of my flesh." Lin Zhou scratched his head, as if giving up.

"no."

Bai Wanwan moved to the side a little, directly blocking the view of those people.

……

"Ready!"

As the sound subsided, the area behind the blackout curtain became much quieter.

Lin Zhou hadn't thought anything of it at first, but when he heard the dozens of people outside quiet down, his heart inexplicably started beating a little faster.

I suddenly feel a little nervous.

This is much scarier than going on stage to introduce yourself.

"Lin Zhou".

Bai Wanwan suddenly reached out and grabbed his fingers.

Lin Zhou lowered his head. "What's wrong?"

"come on……"

"Um!"

……

The performance officially began.

It started with a narration, and the voice of the student who did the voice acting was fairly normal. It told the story of a princess being captured by the demon king and a hero chasing after her all the way to the demon king's castle.

Lin Zhou stood behind the black cloth and listened for a while.

It's still quite embarrassing.

Especially when it was almost his turn, the phrase "Evil Demon King, give me back the princess!" was already playing on repeat in his mind.

Who wrote these lines?

That's so cringeworthy!

"Lin Zhou, it's your turn."

"oh."

Forget it.

Bear the burden of humiliation.

For 300,000.

Lin Zhou flung aside the blackout curtain and stepped out, following the pre-rehearsed route to the center of the classroom. His plastic longsword pointed forward. "Evil Demon King, give me back the princess!"

"ha!"

"The princess is my daughter, I am her father!" the demon king roared.

"Nonsense! Who is that king?"

"The King is my wife!"

"Enough talk, take this!"

Lin Zhou and the monster wrestled together, accompanied by exaggerated and crude special effects. Perhaps because the plot was a bit melodramatic, the audience was momentarily stunned.
