Chapter 392: Dear Gu
“Put down the pens in your hands!” the teacher shouted sternly.
When Ling Sheng finished writing the last word, Jun Shiyan’s face filled her mind. She lowered her head secretly and smiled sneakily.
Cheng Ye was the first to go. He was sitting at the far end and had filled a piece of paper with words front to back. His eyes lit up as he stood up and started reading his masterpiece. “The title of my essay is ‘Praise Song of the Mortal[1] World’!”
Ling Sheng could not help but cover her mouth and laugh. She stole a look at Ji Fanchen and realized that he was looking at Cheng Ye proudly, waiting for him to recite his work.
Cheng Ye’s praise was at the level of a primary school student’s essay, but he was praising Ji Fanchen to the skies.
Ling Sheng had goosebumps all over her body, but Ji Fanchen seemed to be enjoying it. He kept smiling at him.
As for the others, Shangguan Yu was a genius at writing lyrics. His praise was naturally at a high standard, and Cheng Ye felt embarrassed.
Ji Fanchen’s words were appropriate. He praised the pretty, sensible, and hardworking girls of this era. There was nothing outstanding about his words.
Luo Xin’s article was also well-written. It boasted about Shangguan Yu’s talent and rare genius, so Shangguan Yu was very satisfied.
In the end, it was Ling Sheng and Gu Shen’s turn.
When Ling Sheng stood up, all she could think of was Jun Shiyan. She cleared her throat and said, “The title of my passage is Dear Gu Recital.”
Luo Xin’s expression changed slightly, and her hands, which were on her knees, were clasped tightly together. Dear Gu? Dear Gu! Had she still not given up on her evil intentions to woo Gu Shen? Could she not see if she was worthy? Who was she to call him Dear Gu?
Gu Shen frowned and looked in Ling Sheng’s direction. That stinky woman! Who had asked her to call him Dear Gu? What had given her the guts to do that?
Ling Sheng started reciting the words she had written. She was full of emotions and pride as she did so. “Quentin retires, Chen Ming goes into hiding, Gary abandons us, and Dear Gu leaves.
“Over 100 days of infatuation, but no negligence.
“The scenes of the past feel like yesterday.
“Heart full of innocence, character of a child.
“The sound of nature, the form of a deity, the laughter of spring flowers, and the eyes of the country. Endless joy and boundless love.
“Amidst the laughter and silence, every single move effuses infatuation!
“When one’s voice hurts, how can one not frown? If a smile thaws the winter, how can one’s lips not smile? All kinds of emotions are what makes this charming.
“As bashful as a young lad; eyebrows furrowed just like a mature man; a man of action further stirs the heart.
“One moment of infatuation, one lifetime of obsession. It is impossible to get free.”
Quentin was the director who had won the most Oscars in history. Gary was the richest man in the world. Chen Ming was the most acclaimed Best Actor in China’s history. Last year, he had announced his withdrawal from the entertainment circle.
Gu Shen’s expression was curious. When he heard her praise, he actually felt that it was not bad for a moment. However, he soon sneered in his heart. Was she worthy of praising him? He felt disgusted by her praise. Being complimented by her was the biggest insult to him. Why had she chosen him?
After Ling Sheng finished reciting, there was thunderous applause and cheers all around her. In ten minutes, she had written an exquisitely flattering passage. Her words and choice of intonation aside, one had to praise her for being able to write a poem in such a short period of time. She was a genius!
It was Gu Shen’s turn then. The topic he had drawn was Ling Sheng. When he stood up, he felt a little awkward. He paused for a while before reading. “Ling Sheng is very good.”
Then, everyone waited to hear what would follow. Gu Shen bowed and said, “Thank you, everyone!”
Everyone was dumbfounded. Was he finished?
[1] It’s a homophone of Fanchen.
