Chapter 189 - LuXiong Production
A week quickly flashed by.
Xiong Zhi's injury was light and was gone instantly with the help of modern medical science.
Today, they were preparing for the big day for their team.
A lot of posters with Xiong Zhi and Lu Yin Ze in their costumes were posted in every corner of TIHS.
[ LuXiong Production ]
In the poster, Xiong Zhi was wearing a western victoria gown. Her eyes were closed and her hands were clasped. Behind her was Lu Yin Ze who was wearing a knight's armor. The crest on his chest was that of another kingdom. He was back to back with Xiong Zhi. His hand was about to unleash his sword. Behind them, was the background of two kingdoms with different flags.
This poster attracted a lot of attention. The junior who knew the famous LuXiong group was waiting with excitement to watch the play which scheduled this evening. The seniors and other alumni were visiting the theatre hall of TIHS. They too wanted to watch the play.
Guan Gao Huan was looking at the poster. The class had just ended and he was about to head on the LG club to handle some meetings. He heard about the famous group in the juniors.?He was not really interested in watching a play. But now seeing this poster, his interest was peaked.
He fished out his phone and took a picture of the poster. He then sent it to Lu Jin.
[ I saw something interesting. Gotta watch this later at 7 pm at theatre hall TIHS.]
Guan Gao Huan put it back in his pocket. He walked to the senior's parking lot. Then he saw Linfeng that was about to go to his own car as well.
Linfeng also saw him.
Guan Gao Huan politely smiled at him and walked passed him. But his mouth said something to Linfeng.
"Gonna go home without having your master walk you?" Guan Gao Huan had that friendly smile. But his words were mocking. He really doesn't like this dog who always looked at him with such warning eyes.
Linfeng glanced at him. He shrugged his shoulder.
"I really don't have to answer a question from a suspicious person."
Guan Gao Huan halted and looked back at Linfeng. He was two steps away from his car.
"Oh, so your barking now, ha?"
"At least I bark first before I bite. How's the taste of your brother's leg?" Linfeng did not back down. He was not polite at all.
Guan Gao Huan was totally facing Linfeng now. He shrugged his shoulders.
"It did not taste good. But you're surprisingly capable. To be able to dig that. Well, as expected of the man who is talented in digging his own grave." These words meant a lot.
Linfeng looked at Guan Gao Huan deeply. It might be empty words. Or it might be that this guy was also watching him. And this guy must have found something against him.
"Make sure you understand that if what I'm digging is really my grave. Or someone's grave. Maybe there's no digging after all. Well, Mr. Guan Gao Huan, its nice to talk to you." Linfeng then turned around and faced his own car.
But his steps halted when Guan Gao Huan spoke again.
"Are you overestimating yourself too much?" Guan Gao Huan walked a couple of steps to Linfeng.
"A butler should know his place. The Guan family is one of the things that you should not sniff your nose into." Guan Gao Huan warned Linfeng. For now, he was playing it nice. He got an order to deal with it discreetly. Until that time, he would take care of this dog who always challenged him.
Linfeng tuned around and faced Guan Gao Huan.
"Young Master must be joking, I am in my place. " Linfeng hadn't move personally yet. He was just playing in the shadows and preparing his cards.
Those confident eyes made Guan Gao Huan felt irritated. He doesn't like those eyes. It was mocking him.
And the next words of Linfeng made him angrier.
"But are you?"?Linfeng looked closely at Guan Gao Huan who was silent. This Guan Gao Huan might be calmed and looked gentle outside. But Linfeng doesn't think so. He also gathered evidence that this man was cruel unlike what he was letting others see of him.
The accident of his older brother a month ago. It was all Gao Huan's doing.
(a/n refer chap 158)
This man who Linfeng suspected as the possible fiance of Xiong Zhi was not a gentleman at all. But a wolf in prince's clothing.
'He doesn't deserve the Young Miss.'
Besides, Linfeng was suspicious of this man who made his young miss shiver in fear.
He doesn't really like this man at all.
*******
Song Xuantin was nervous as she looked at the crowd of people. Every seat was occupied. The VIP areas were full as well. Master Lu was in one of the VIP areas. OLd Xiong did not come, but Linfeng was there as Xiong Zhi's representative. Gu Zhen's father was there as well. Song Xuantin's old nanny came as her representative.
Song Xuantin calmed her beating heart. This was the very first production she had directed. This play meant a lot to her. Her family's reputation was at stake here. besides, there were two legendary families who were participating. They need to do their best.
A warm hand patted Song Xuantin's shoulder.
"Don't worry. We practiced really hard. We will ace it." Gu Zhen unexpectedly gave motivational words to Song Xuantin. This was unusual.
Song Xuantin saw that behind Gu Zhen was Xiong Zhi and Lu Yin Ze. These two were not good actors but she could see their improvements and their determinations to do their best.
"Hmm! You're right! We are LuXiong! We will make them sing us words of praises!" Song Xuantin raised her energy level.
"I don't really like the name but yeah, we will do our best." Lu Yin Ze said.
Xiong Zhi nodded. She was prepared to do a good job here.
Song Xuantin smiled and gave them a group hug.
"Thank you! "
The three just looked at each other, They of course knew how important this play was for their friend.
The four then went to change their clothes. The play was about to start in a few minutes.
****
[Long long ago, in a place where the three kingdoms peacefully reigned over one continent, there was a princess who likes to discover new things. ]
The narrator, which was a record of Song Xuantin's voice, was played.
The lights turned on and the realistic props were in plain sight.
The scenery was that of green plains, a castle and a girl who was wearing her horseback-riding clothes.
Linfeng eyes took an interest as he watched the usual aloof girl riding in a realistic horse.
Xiong Zhi was just moving up and down in her horse as the scenery behind her changes from that of the kingdom, to the forest, to lakes, to snowy plains, and finally to a certain desolate land.
[ Until this princess found a desolate land with sparkling stones all over the place. ]
Xiong Zhi with her usual cold face jumped down from her horse. Then she opened her mouth like she was about to shout.
[The princess was shocked to find out that those sparkling stones were actually diamonds. The Diamonds that weigh over the kingdom's wealth. ]
The sound and graphic effect were great as the people in the audience were amazed by the sparkling lights like diamonds which appeared all over the theatre, in the stage and in the audience. It was magnificent.
This magnificent scene covered Xiong Zhi's lack of acting skills.
Linfeng had a small laugh on his face as he saw Xiong Zhi's open mouth was actually the supposed shock face.
The lights then turned off.
Making all the audience surprised a bit.
The narrator spoke again.
[ However, the Princess doesn't know that this sparkling stone she picked up would be the start of the war that was about to rage on to the three peaceful kingdoms.]
The audience was amazed by this prologue of the play and began to take interest in the plot.
The play's theme that was given by their professor was 'Conquering Kingdoms.' Any play that they can make should showcase the process of conquering a kingdom.
Xiong Zhi played as Princess Ariana, the Heir of GNIOX kingdom. Her cold and determined face fitted her well to the confident and knowledgable princess. The GNIOX kingdom struck it rich because of the land they discovered.
They kept this piece of news hidden to the other kingdoms and mine the land discreetly.
Diamonds were the currency between the three kingdoms. The more the kingdom owned diamonds, the more they will have authority and wealth.
The GNIOX kingdom was actually the least rich among the three kingdoms. The richer among the three was the UL Kingdom. Secondly to that was the NHEZ kingdom.
So this was the great news and the major contribution of Princess Ariana for her kingdom.
However, the two kingdoms become suspicious. Not only the GNIOX kingdom was sending people to a certain place but they also managed to trade more products for their kingdom. The two kingdoms got afraid of the possibility that the GNIOX kingdom found a new mine. A mine that was bigger than them.
King UL, a professional stage actor, summoned his son, the only prince of UL kingdom to the court.
Lu Yin Ze who was wearing a prince's clothing with an eagle crest on his back robe knelt to King UL.
