Hearing this, the group fell silent.
Someone at the back said dejectedly, “Is Teacher Huo really leaving?”
Lu Ning looked over and was a little surprised when she spotted Kan Rou.
Kan Rou was still as soft and weak as ever, but she was wearing rehearsal attire and had taken off her glasses. When she looked at Lu Ning, she still seemed a little timid.
However, she looked very different from before.
Lin Ci was also a little surprised. She looked at Kan Rou. ‘Are you also acting in this play?”
Kan Rou looked at her and nodded.
In the end, she smiled gently and said, “l listened to you, and wanted to change,”
Lin Ci fell silent. After a long while, she looked at Kan Rou and said apologetically, “That time… it’s my bad. I spoke too harshly.”
Kan Rou quickly shook her head, blushing. “No, no. I think you’re right, so I wanted to try and change. That’s why I asked the class monitor for a spot in the play.”
The class monitor was also quite happy. “We didn’t have enough people to begin with. Kan Rou’s helped us a lot this time.”
Kan Rou’s face turned even redder. She lowered her gaze and did not speak.
“Are we that short of people?”
Lu Ning asked.
“Yes, no one’s willing to act for the side roles. There are a lot of small flowers and grasses which don’t have any lines, so not many people are willing to act in them.”
The group fell silent.
The class monitor, on the other hand, was cheerful. “It’s fine. Some of us actors can just drop in to fill out those roles for a few scenes.”
“Then won’t you all be very tired?”
“It’s not a big deal, it’s worth it even if it’s a little tiring. This is the last time we’ll be participating in the school’s anniversary celebration, so we want to leave the best impression. Besides… This is also the first time we’re acting in front of Teacher Huo. We want to show him our best sides too,’
The group nodded resolutely.
Lu Ning looked at them and fell silent. “Alright, alright. Time to rehearse, we don’t have much time.”
The group of them immediately got up.
Lu Ning sat at the side and watched.
As they had only rehearsed a few times, everyone was not familiar with their lines. They held their notebooks and read their lines before moving into their positions.
Lu Ning watched them go through the rehearsal twice, before calling a halt somewhere.
“Is something missing there?”
The class monitor looked at the spot she was pointing at and immediately responded. “There was originally a flower here, but now that all of us are on the field and aren’t available, we can only do this. Why don’t we change the distance between us? Sister Ning, help us see if it looks better.”
Everything was for the sake of the scene.
The class monitor was about to instruct them to make some distance between themselves when Lu Ning stood up. “There’s no need.”
She placed her phone somewhere to start recording, and walked over to take a flower prop. Then, she stood in the empty spot.
“I’ll do it. There aren’t any lines after all.’
She stood there, and the class monitor stared at her blankly.
Then, when he regained his senses, he was about to cry. “Thank you, Sister Ning! You’re really my…”
“Alright, alright. Continue with the rehearsal.”
“Okayar
Lu Ning had also helped them film their rehearsal when she was on the sidelines. After comparison, it was better when that spot was filled in.
The group of them were rehearsing when someone opened the door and came in, carrying a few large bags.
“Hey. Chow time.”
Gu Chen yelled at them.
They were so busy rehearsing that they completely forgot about eating.
Lu Ning walked over with the flower prop. “Come on, let’s eat.”
Only then did the group react.
“Thank you, Sister Ning!’
Then, they looked at Gu Chen and said in a strange and funny voice, “Thank you, Cousin-“
