“I didn’t have time to participate. How do you know that I’m not as good as you?” Fang Yao looked at Si Cheng indignantly.

“Yuan Xiao, the dancer would need you as their dance partner. You don’t have to show your face. Just a shot of your back,” Qi Yuan looked at Yuan Xiao, who was standing at the side, and said to her as if nothing had happened.

Fang Yao and Si Cheng stopped when they heard Qi Yuan’s words. The two of them seemed to be having a mental battle and quickly began to push each other away.

“Fang Yao, if you want to play the piano, I’ll let you have it. After all, I’m older than you. There’s no need to snatch it from you over such a small matter.”

Fang Yao sneered and counterattacked, “There’s no need to trouble yourself. I haven’t played the piano for a long time. Perhaps I’m already rusty. I’m definitely not as experienced as you.”

Looking at the two people who were still arguing, Yuan Xiao lowered her head helplessly. These two people seemed to be natural enemies. In the future, they would both be influential figures in the business world. One was straightforward and hot-tempered, while the other was gentle and shrewd. Once they met, they would start to fight uncontrollably.

“Alright, let’s draw lots. It’s fair to everyone.” Qi Yuan folded the note he had written and placed it in an empty bag.

“One note says ‘play the piano’, and the other says ‘dance’. You can do whichever one you draw. Don’t go back on your word. Do you understand?”

Qi Yuan gave Fang Yao and Si Cheng a warning look, as if he was going to throw anyone who continued to cause trouble out of the club classroom.

Seeing the two of them silently drawing lots, Yuan Xiao prayed that Fang Yao would be chosen to dance. If she really went to be Si Cheng’s dance partner, Fang Yao would be so angry that he would tear down the club classroom. In Yuan Xiao’s opinion, Fang Yao looked like a cute big golden retriever when he was obedient, but when he was angry, he was an out-and-out husky, the kind with the purest bloodline.

Yuan Xiao observed Fang Yao’s expression after seeing the contents of the note. When she saw the corners of his mouth curl up, she heaved a sigh of relief.

Finally, after arranging the filming content, Qi Yuan explained to everyone tiredly, “Because it’s a promotional video for University A, the filming location is also at University A. The scene of the piano playing is in the music classroom, and the scene of the dance is on the school’s celebration stage. In the end, the joint scene of the two of you is filmed at the entrance of University A.”

Qi Yuan turned to look at Fang Yao and Si Cheng and instructed, “I’ll find some free slots for the classroom and the stage and contact you to film. You need a dry run with the equipment first. See if that time is suitable. We’ll set the next start time.”

With Qi Yuan around, Yuan Xiao and Li Chang were quite relaxed. This was the first time Yuan Xiao felt that having a god-like teammate was an especially blissful thing.

As Fang Yao’s basketball team would start the competition next week, the first to film was Si Cheng.

Although Yuan Xiao and Li Chang could not help much, they still participated in every filming.

There was not a single flaw with Qi Yuan’s skills. Si Cheng was also very adapted to the camera. Not only was he photogenic, but he was also very talented in acting.

After only two days of filming, they had already completed a lot of scenes. Yuan Xiao did not come in vain. She had also learned a lot of techniques related to photography by Qi Yuan’s side.

On the weekend, Yuan Xiao prepared to go home with Li Chang. Fang Yao originally planned to go back with her, but Zhao Yu was still worried about the competition, so Fang Yao stayed behind to accompany him.

After all, there were many opportunities to go home, but the competition next week was only once a year.

On the way home, Yuan Xiao received a piece of good news. Pan Ning had called her and said that she had arrived at University A. Because of her foot injury, Pan Ning had successfully applied for leave. Her parents had also changed a lot and finally tried to listen to her opinion. Yuan Xiao was sincerely happy for Pan Ning.

After agreeing with Li Chang on the time to return to school, Yuan Xiao rushed home alone.

Yuan Xiao arrived home before noon because she had already told Shen Hai

and Feng Mei in advance. As soon as she entered the house, Yuan Xiao smelled the fragrance of food.

Although the food in University A’s canteen was not bad, it did not smell like home. Yuan Xiao took in the fragrance of the food in satisfaction and gave her parents a big hug.

“Dad, Mom, I miss you guys so much. Is everything okay at home? How’s the shop now?”

“Child, you’re always so worried. Everything is fine at home..” Shen Hai gently stroked Yuan Xiao’s head and said lovingly, “Why do I feel that you’ve grown taller?”
