It was Liu Rui who arrived.
She was Yan Film Academy's most beautiful student of the 2023 class.
In the film and television industry, almost all previous most beautiful students from Yan Film Academy have become famous.
Their career paths have been smooth.
As long as they weren't particularly bad at acting, they could generally become popular and join the ranks of A-list celebrities.
Liu Rui also had good resources.
Therefore, among Yan Film Academy's alumni, she was very well-known.
Especially since she hadn't even graduated yet, still in her youth and beauty, she was already a female lead.
Thus, Liu Rui's arrival caused quite a stir.
The entire private room was cheering.
It was as if she was the center of attention, surrounded by stars.
The atmosphere created was as if a top-tier celebrity had arrived, and even Song Yang, standing beside Liu Rui, looked smug.
His mouth was almost splitting to his ears.
He was smiling with such triumph.
However…
Liu Rui actually didn't show much smile.
Her gaze had been intertwined with Chen Feng's from the moment she entered.
The two looked at each other.
Both were a bit surprised.
After the crowd had cheered enough, Song Yang raised his arm and shouted, “Alright, classmates, quiet down. Let’s all take our seats.”
A noisy group of people took their seats.
Generally, there's a main seat at a table.
Song Yang didn't need anyone to persuade him; he unhesitatingly sat in the main seat, arranging Liu Rui to his left and Chen Feng to his right.
It felt like he was the protagonist here.
After everyone was seated.
Song Yang clapped his hands and said with a chuckle, “Classmates, today’s gathering is quite unexpected. It’s mainly due to a fortunate coincidence.”
Saying that, he turned to Chen Feng and smiled, “Chen Feng, you don’t know Liu Rui yet, do you? She’s the most beautiful student of the 2023 class, and she hasn’t even graduated yet.”
“I only got to know her two months ago.”
“Fortunately, with Director Guo Xiaosi’s recommendation, Liu Rui and I might soon have an opportunity to collaborate.”
“I’ll be playing the male second lead, and Liu Rui is playing the female lead.”
“We have a tragic romance scene.”
“It’s very much anticipated.”
At this point, Song Yang looked at Liu Rui again: “Junior Sister, Chen Feng is in the same class as me. He used to be known as a professional extra, and now he’s also become popular through ‘What is an Actor’. But he doesn’t have any representative works yet.”
Liu Rui smiled faintly.
Her gaze remained fixed on Chen Feng, her demeanor sweet and elegant.
Someone opposite excitedly asked, “Class Monitor Song, whose drama is this collaboration with the most beautiful Junior Sister for?”
Song Yang’s attention was immediately drawn, and he chuckled, “You won’t believe it when I tell you. It’s from the great director, Director Kaige.”
“Holy cow, Director Chen?”
“It’s going to be a hit.”
“Class Monitor Song, is Director Chen’s connection through you or through the most beautiful Junior Sister?”
“Yeah, whose connection is it?”
“Good heavens, if you can get connected with Director Chen, won’t you become famous overnight?”
“Hey, hey, stop with the dirty jokes. There’s no ‘shot’ involved here.”
“Hahahahahahaha.”
“You guys are going too far. The most beautiful Junior Sister hasn’t even graduated yet, she’s still sensitive. You scoundrels, don’t make dirty jokes out of nowhere.”
“Damn it, I’m more wronged than Dou E. My ‘famous overnight’ absolutely did not mean anything dirty; he’s just misinterpreting it.”
“Why are you still talking about ‘shots’?”
“Too much, too much.”
…
The crowd was noisy.
And with so many people, there were always some with low quality who would make inappropriate jokes.
Liu Rui’s face was somewhat red.
This made her look even more delicate.
Everyone roared with laughter.
Song Yang didn’t stop them; instead, he revelled in it.
After all, they were making fun of him and Liu Rui.
Daydreaming felt great.
After the crowd had made enough noise, Song Yang waved his hand and, with a feigned smile, scolded, “You scoundrels, pay attention to your manners. Liu Rui hasn’t graduated yet; she’s still a young girl. Don’t make inappropriate jokes out of nowhere.”
“Also, being able to get into Director Chen’s drama was due to Director Guo Xiaosi’s recommendation.”
“But strictly speaking, the connection is definitely Liu Rui’s connection.”
After he finished speaking, he turned to Liu Rui and said affectionately, “Junior Sister, I’m really looking forward to this collaboration. Truly, not just because it’s Director Chen’s drama. It’s more because of you.”
“We have a tragic romance storyline in the drama.”
“Tragic romance is hard to act.”
“So, I actually hope we can try to experience the feeling of being in love outside of the drama first.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the surroundings immediately erupted in cheers.
“Ohh, ohh. Class Monitor Song, are you proposing?”
“Damn it, Song Yang, you’re going too far. So your purpose for treating us generously today was to have us witness your confession to the most beautiful student?”
“You’re going too far, Song Yang.”
“This is absolutely too much, force-feeding us dog food?”
“The most beautiful Junior Sister is still young, Song Yang, you’re going too far. How can you bear to pick such a tender most beautiful student? Let us cherish her for a few more years.”
…
The private room became increasingly lively.
The voices of the crowd cheering grew louder and louder, making it noisy.
Chen Feng was speechless.
What did he come here for?
To watch Song Yang show off?
The key thing was, Song Yang was a show-off king even when he was in school, so it wouldn't be reasonable for him not to show off. He could show off, but was it really necessary to call so many people to cheer him on?
As for his confession, Chen Feng had no reaction.
Even though Liu Rui had had a brief relationship with him.
But now they were no longer together.
So, choosing who to be with was Liu Rui’s own right.
Chen Feng just glanced at Liu Boguang.
His eyes showed helplessness.
Look at the dinner party you chose. Is this for eating or for enduring nonsense?
Just as everyone was making a commotion, and Song Yang was excited, his face flushed, waiting for Liu Rui’s response, Liu Rui finally spoke.
She smiled sweetly: “Senior Brother, I’m sorry. Ever since I broke up with him, I decided I wouldn’t fall in love again until I achieved success in my career.”
Liu Rui’s gaze remained fixed on Chen Feng.
So, Song Yang was stunned.
The private room suddenly fell silent.
Everyone stared at Chen Feng.
And Chen Feng’s gaze also returned from Liu Boguang, looking at Liu Rui with a surprised expression.
No way?
She made it public?
Usually, a most beautiful student-level young actress like her, who takes the pure route, would not expose her relationships. She needs to maintain a pure image.
Once people know she’s had a relationship, or even slept with someone, that image would collapse.
What is Liu Rui doing?
There was an awkward silence in the private room.
After more than ten seconds.
Song Yang finally came to his senses, staring blankly at Liu Rui: “Junior Sister, you said… with whom?”
“With him.”
Liu Rui motioned towards Chen Feng.
“With Chen Feng?”
Song Yang’s eyes suddenly widened, and he looked at Chen Feng in horror: “You dated Liu Rui?”
Chen Feng blinked: “What’s wrong?”
Song Yang’s mouth twitched uncontrollably twice, and he asked loudly, “You really dated Liu Rui?”
Chen Feng asked in confusion, “Did you hear it or not?”
Song Yang: “…”
Everyone else: “…”
Such a beautiful most beautiful student, and Chen Feng actually dated her.
When did that happen?
At this moment, Song Yang suddenly turned to look at Liu Rui, veins throbbing on his forehead, and stammered, “You… you… you…”
“Are you asking if we’ve slept together?”
Liu Rui asked with a calm expression.
Song Yang swallowed hard.
His hands were trembling with nervousness.
Immediately after, Liu Rui shrugged easily: “We’ve slept together. We’ve been to bed.”
Song Yang: “…”
A loud crack echoed in his mind.
The sky had fallen!
The entire world instantly turned gray.
