Lu Wei Xi was familiarly recommended all of the radio dramas Wonder is into Mu Ran Ran when her phone untimely rang at this moment.
She picked up her phone from the table and found a string of strange numbers on the caller ID.
Mu Ran Ran also looked at the caller ID and quickly concluded, “It must be a scam call.”
“I also feel that way, but….just in case, I should pick it up.” Lu Wei Xi frowned and thought for a long time before she pressed the green answer button.
“Hello, is this Miss Lu Wei Xi?”
Just as the call connected, she heard a sweet official female voice on the phone. Listening to this passionate voice, Lu Wei Xi is now basically 99% sure that this must be a pyramid scheme. I shouldn’t have answered…...
She answered each question with vague answers while thinking about how to find an excuse to hang up the phone.
“I’m the receptionist for Wei Wei Bridal Studio calling you this time…..it’s like this, it’s almost the end of the year, so in order to give back to our loyal members, we entered our old and new customers into a sweepstake. Your membership card number was very fortunate to be selected as the first prize in the event. "
Lu Wei Xi who was hazily listening to the conversation the whole time finally heard what she was looking for. However, generally, prizes in these type of lotteries are cheap. Most of them would send an umbrella, a photo frame or something. Even if she was selected as the first prize winner, Lu Wei Xi felt that it won’t be any luxury prize. She inclined her head and asked not much care, "Oh... what is the prize?"
“The prize is a single three-day trip to New York. Our store will help you pay for the round-trip airfare and hotel expenses, everything else would be taken care of by the customer. If you wish to accept, feel free to come to the store to redeem the prize before the end of the month. Thank you very much for choosing Wei Wei Bridal Studio. We will work harder in the new year and hope to provide you with better service..."
Whatever the reception lady is saying now, Lu Wei Xi was unable to pay attention. Her head is now filled with the words she said earlier, “A single three-day trip to New York in the U.S.”
U.S.! New York! Three-day! Trip!
After hanging up the phone, Lu Wei Xi took a long time to digest the information.
She already in her twenties and has never been abroad...there is some inexplicable excitement =3=
After explaining it to Mu Ran Ran, she couldn’t help but sigh, “Ah Xi, when you receive this type of phone call, 70% of time it will be a scam, 20% of the time, they will hang up immediately after the call is connected and that leaves the remaining 10%.....”
“What’s the remaining 10%?” Lu Wei Xi looked at her with bright sparkling eyes.
Mu Ran Ran can’t help but shake her head, “You’re an idiot.”
“......”
Embarrassed, Lu Wei Xi took time to recover before she retorted, “But I think what she said sound legitimate….whatever, in a few days I’ll go over to the shop. Who knows, maybe it’s true.”
–––––
Time flew by very quickly. When Lu Wei Xi came out of the shower, it was already ten. She quickly and changed her pajamas again, unable to sit still.
There’s still half an hour before the YY session with Wonder. How can she break the tension?
She turned and saw Mu Ran Ran happily watching “Happy Camp.” Xia Nuan and Cheng Si Ran had gone out shopping during the day and probably will be coming back soon.
Does this mean that she will have to act as if no one is there while reading ancient lines under the public’s glare? Isn’t it a little shameful?
Lu Wei Xi seriously thought of options in her head. Finally, she still decided to sneak into the 24-hour study room on the third floor of the girls' dormitory with her computer and headphones.
When she pushed the door open, she was relieved to find that the study room is empty. After all, it is Saturday night, they won’t choose this time to study late in the night.
Taking a sigh of relief, she found a position against the wall and open her computer to log in to YY. Then she put on her headset and went on to her channel earlier than expected.
Looking at the time, it is only 5 minutes past ten. Lu Wei Xi opened the word document for “Beyond Expectations” and carefully read the lyrics and storyline again. She wants to get a feel of the story lest being shameful in front of Wonder.
Not long after, she heard a notification alert from YY.
She froze and went back to YY browser and was surprised to find that Wonder request to enter her channel.
…..It’s only 10:05, why is he early?
Nervous, Lu Wei Xi moved him into the small room and made him co-administrator. Although….maybe he won’t ever enter this channel again in the future.
In the quiet room, on the top left corner, there is only their two names, ambiguously sitting together.
Lu Wei Xi coughed and then hit the F2 key, thinking about what to say to liven the atmosphere. However, the person on the other side who always cherished words like gold unexpectedly spoke first.
“Sorry I came late.”
If his voice wasn’t so recognizable, Lu Wei Xi would’ve doubted that the person talking to her was someone else. Subconsciously, she looked down at the lower right corner of the computer. It clearly shows that it is 10:10. Not only is he not late, but he is also twenty minutes early.
“Wonder dada, it is only 10:10, you’re not late so there’s no need to apologize.” Nervous, she took a deep breath and try to make her voice sound light and natural.
The other side was quiet before he said as-a-matter-of-factly, “I came later than you, therefore I am late.”
Although his tone is still as cold as ever, the words that came out made her heart beat faster.
I came later than you, therefore I am late…..don't know why, but when she heard this sentence, why does she feel like... he was a little embarrassed?
No, no, no, she must be overthinking it. Jian Chi is so cold, he must be saying this only because it is of courtesy. That's right, that must be it.
Lu Wei Xi calmed her heart, which is about to jump out into the sky. That person indifferently changed the topic, “Have you looked over the script?”
“En, I’ve read it.” Lu Wei Xi quickly nodded and answered.
“Sing a verse for me.” She did not expect this answer. His voice was light and calm as if he was satisfied with her answer.
Unexpectedly, Lu Wei Xi suddenly thought of what Old Age said to her in the game, “Then show me what you learned.”
These two unrelated sentences overlapped in her head, but they are two people in completely different worlds. Why would she suddenly think of someone she met by chance in the game?
En... it must be that she is too nervous, her imagination runs wild whenever she is nervous.
Shaking her head, she cursed herself for thinking of such useless things. Lu Wei Xi opened up Kugou on the side and has the accompanying song “Beyond Expectations” play.
Compared to voice acting, she is more skilled at singing.
I should bet. I should probably bet. I should really probably bet that they are one and the same person.
