The drama club recruitment was still ongoing.
However, this year’s recruitment was a bit special. Perhaps because they knew that Mi Le was in the drama club, many people came to register.
Some of these people came not because they liked acting, but because they wanted to have the opportunity to get to know Mi Le.
This situation didn’t happen last year because Mi Le only joined the drama club halfway through the school year. Many students from the same class regretted it, but it was too late. The quota was full.
Because of this, the drama club was very troubled. Ultimately, they decided to conduct one-on-one interviews and auditions for the freshmen who had submitted application forms.
Mi Le originally didn’t want to participate. He handed all of it over to Gong Monan to complete it.
However, he couldn’t settle down in the dorm, so he simply sat in the corner of the theater club and watched.
In a few days, he had to shoot a series of advertisements, which also had a plot. He looked through it casually and realized that the plot was quite weak. The entire advertisement would probably rely on his face.
Zuoqiu Mingxu came to the drama club. After he looked around, he exclaimed: “Wow! The new stadium is amazing. It’s like a grand theater.”
“Otherwise, there’s no need for us to move to the new campus.” Mi Le’s response was still very cold.
“Here, the roster for the basketball tournament. I keep thinking that it’s a bit precarious to play against the volleyball team. We all look a bit short standing next to them. The scene will be so beautiful that I don’t want to imagine it.”
“There’s nothing that can be done. A group of people who are two meters tall when they put on shoes…” Mi Le was also very helpless. Innate advantages were really overpowering.
As the two of them spoke, some people came over to greet them. Gong Monan was also among them.
Zuoqiu Mingxu glanced at Gong Monan and said hello with a smile.
“Won’t the vice president join our drama club?” a female member of the drama club asked.
“Ah, I’m going to the company for training in a while. I won’t have much time to come here,” Zuoqiu Mingxu replied.
“That’s amazing. You’ve already signed a contract with a company, while our futures are still uncertain,” Member B sighed.
“Mi Le’s the one who’s amazing, okay?” Zuoqiu Mingxu replied smilingly.
“Zuoqiu and our Gong Monan have always had strong chemistry,” Member C suddenly sighed.
“Eh?” Zuoqiu Mingxu was surprised.
Mi Le put down the things in his hands and looked at them.
“Your names! The style is different from ours,” Member C replied.
“Yes, yes, yes. It’s just like the male and female lead of a Mary Sue story,” another person agreed.
Zuoqiu Mingxu smiled and didn’t mind it. He replied directly, “I changed my name. When I changed it, this kind of name was popular. I was foolish then, so I changed it. However, my surname is really Zuoqiu.”
“What were you originally called?” Member C asked curiously.
“Zuoqiu Ming. I just added one word.” Zuoqiu Mingxu didn’t avoid the question, but answered it directly.
“Is Gong Monan’s original surname also Gong? Did she also change her name?” Member B looked towards Gong Monan and asked.
Member C and Member B exchanged a glance, as though conveying information with their eyes.
Gong Monan didn’t speak.
Zuoqiu Mingxu smiled as he helped smooth things over: “The surname Gong is fine. It’s very common.”
He didn’t mention the issue of Gong Monan’s name.
Actually, Gong Monan had changed her name.
She had even changed it with Zuoqiu Mingxu.
They had planned to take the path of arts from the beginning. They had changed their names before entering junior high school.

Zuoqiu Mingxu was called Zuoqiu Ming. At least his surname was still Zuoqiu.

However, now, it seemed that the names Gong Monan and Zuoqiu Mingxu were really… charming.
Mi Le wanted to say something, but he was afraid that if he did, he would indirectly admit that Gong Monan had changed her surname.
Fortunately, other people interrupted this topic of conversation.
Tong Yi and Li Xin arrived at the drama club. After they saw them, they immediately greeted them warmly and amicably: “Xiao Le, Xiao Ming!”
Zuoqiu Mingxu smiled when he heard this: “I have such a charming name, but the image has collapsed from this call in one second.”
After he finished speaking, he went to talk to Tong Yi and the others.
Mi Le followed beside him and listened in.
The people in the drama club quickly shifted their gazes and instead focused on Tong Yi and Li Xin.
“They’re so tall!”
“That’s right. They’re over two meters.”
“President Mi and Zuoqiu both look short.”
“I remember that President Mi is 185 centimeters, and Zuoqiu is also 183 centimeters.”
“Tong Yi… the one who was shipped with President Mi in rumors.”
“He’s really handsome.”
“Yes, quite handsome. I don’t know if he has a girlfriend.”
“Don’t think about it. We have our president.”
And then, a group of girls began to make a fuss.
Gong Monan looked towards them. She glanced at them and said to them: “Stop fangirling. Do your work.”
“The basketball court is settled, the time is settled, and the publicity is settled. There are no problems.” Zuoqiu Mingxu looked at the table in his hand and turned to look at Mi Le.
Mi Le asked: “You all…”
He saw 210 cm, 200 cm, Tong Yi, 180 cm, and someone Mi Le was not very familiar with on the list of contestants.
This lineup… was quite disgusting.
Tong Yi smiled and glanced at Mi Le, then asked: “President Mi~”
“Speak.”
“We hope to have a cheerleading team.”
“Don’t you have one in your sports department?”
Tong Yi shook his head.
Mi Le saw Tong Yi’s suggestive look and knew that the volleyball team members wanted to see girls again.
However, this was not an unreasonable request. He nodded: “I’ll try to arrange it.”
After Mi Le finished his work, Gong Monan asked Mi Le: “Do you want to participate in the second round of exams?”
“Sure, let’s change the contents.”
“What should the arrangement be?”
“Mafia. The time to test your acting skills and intelligence has come.”
The “Friendship Performance” basketball match between the sports department and the arts department had started.
The members of the volleyball team seemed to be deliberately picking a fight. They wore the T-shirts that Mi Le saw last time, printed with “Just victory, no friendship” and “I am friendship.”
These T-shirts only had numbers on the front. Tong Yi was number 1.
When the five boys stood on the basketball court, it was like they were going to trash the place.
However, after they lined up, they saw the cheerleading team holding banners on the arts department side. Suddenly, they felt that the group of brothers that had come on their side were really lame.
The other team had an idol group, while they had a squad of street fighters.
Originally, they were looking forward to the beautiful girls on the cheerleading team, but when they saw that the cheerleading team was from the arts department and only cheered for the arts department, they felt a little complicated.
180 cm watched in displeasure for a while. He turned around and shouted: “Ye Xiya!”
They really thought that they had no one, didn’t they?
Ye Xiya was standing with friends and fangirling together: “Ahhhh, Mi Le is so handsome!”
“My heart is about to jump out.”
“I will bring Mi Le water in a while.”
Hearing 180 cm call her, Ye Xiya immediately turned around and asked: “What?!”
Her voice was even more masculine than a man’s.
“Oh… nothing, nothing.” 180 cm was instantly frightened. The “person” on their side was like a spy that had been sent by the other side.
180 cm was unhappy, so he went to Mi Le’s side and bared his teeth like a threatening dog.
Mi Le and Zuoqiu Mingxu looked at 180 cm: “…”
Did this guy watch Young and Dangerous growing up? Why was he still so immature?
“We’ll be as merciful as possible,” 180 cm said to Mi Le, as if he were very cool. After all, Mi Le had a group of cheerleaders around him. It seemed like if he put on a show of force, he would be very handsome.
However, the consequence of his threat was the anger of all the girls in the arts department. They quietly cursed this fool who had come out of nowhere and even dared to threaten their god.
Instantly, their daggers were drawn.
“Oh, then thanks,” Mi Le replied.
“Don’t cry too hard when you lose.”
“What if we win?” Mi Le asked again.
As though he had heard a joke, 180 cm immediately laughed: “Just you guys? Hard.”
“How about this? Let’s make a bet. If we win, you’ll run around the school three times and scream, Mi Le is my dad.”
“Fuck?” 180 cm didn’t expect that Mi Le also had this style, so he continued to ask, “What if you lose?”
“I’ll find you a girlfriend.”
180 cm swallowed a mouthful of saliva. He thought that this condition was very tempting.
The girls around Mi Le were all very beautiful. He would be very satisfied with any of them!
Thus, he agreed: “Okay. Don’t think that we’ll go easy on you.”
When 180 cm left, Zuoqiu Mingxu asked Mi Le: “Will you really find him one?”
“At that time, you can dress up as a woman and go on the date.”
“…” He had been careless in making friends. Zuoqiu Mingxu wanted to end the friendship.
Mi Le and Zuoqiu Mingxu changed into basketball uniforms. Looking at the opposite side, he couldn’t help but sigh: “What the heck. They’re like a wall of iron.”
“They’re on the volleyball team. After long periods of training, there will be reflexive reactions in the body, so we can create an issue in this area.”
“But what about the issue of height?”
Mi Le was silent for a while and sighed.
Zuoqiu Mingxu also sighed.
What kind of devilish height did the volleyball team have?!
It was only when the basketball match really began that Mi Le realized the height of the opposite team was truly an issue.
As long as their side made a shot, three people on the other side would appear and block the backboard. 210 cm stood in the middle, with 200 cm and Tong Yi on either side.
After hitting the ball, they would slap it down with a “pa.” Then, 180 cm would nimbly catch the ball.
The catch was not a normal catch either, but rather the freestyle position in basketball. He caught the ball with both hands and passed it to 210 cm.
210 cm was a setter. After lifting the ball, he passed it to another person, alternating passes. Tong Yi then jumped up to slam dunk.
It was really a slam dunk.
He was tall enough, fast enough, and could jump high enough. His slam dunking posture was very graceful.
However, every time, it was like he wanted to slap the basketball hoop down.
Their style of play was very fast and fierce. Most importantly, it was very strange and completely unconventional.
It was very frustrating to play against such a style of play.
The ball was passed over and slapped away with a “pa.”
A shot was taken, and it was hit far away with a “pa.” They couldn’t even grab the rebound.
“Fuck…” Zuoqiu Mingxu was a little upset by this.
This style of play seemed to be teasing them. The people in the arts department were being played around.
The sports department was making a big commotion. After all, the game was entertaining. This volleyball team was really disgusting in their playing.
The sports department laughed at their misfortune, while the arts department was very angry. They kept shouting and cheering, and the cheerleading team followed suit.
Mi Le dribbled the basketball and looked before him. He saw Tong Yi standing directly opposite him, constantly staring at him.
This kind of head-to-head scene actually caused a round of screams.
Mi Le was long used to it, and Tong Yi was also very calm, but the rest of the volleyball team was caught a bit off guard. It was because a team suddenly rushed in, holding signs of support in their hands. After they arrived, they started to cheer and encourage Tong Yi.
There were even two boys on the team, shouting more vigorously than the girls. The contents were all the same: “Tong Yi, Tong Yi, I love you. I’ll shoot you a heart.”
After a quick glance, Tong Yi asked Mi Le: “Did you hire crowd actors?”
“I really didn’t.” After Mi Le heard this, he wanted to laugh.
Author’s Notes:
Tong Yi: Ace spiker, number 1, has already proven my position. No matter how much your Mi Le acts like a gong, it’s no use.
Mi Le: What if I want to change positions?
Tong Yi: I’ll voluntarily lie down.
Petitioning TongYi to be vers!
Seconding this motion!
