[020] Help (Melbourne Knights 8/10)
Fang Changan put the microphone back on the lecture table, turned around and saw everyone standing up from the audience. He was startled and quickly bowed again before leaving the stage.
During this process, everyone's eyes were on him, including the judges and leaders in the front row. Although he was a man for two lives, he was still a little guilty in front of these big guys, but fortunately he did not see any obvious malice.
Fang Chang'an was undoubtedly Shu Ang who found him accurately among the leaders. The latter had a gentle look and a complimentary look. He patted his hands gently as he watched Fang Chang'an walk down the aisle, and then sat down again.
After he sat down, the others around him dared to sit down.
For Shu Ang, the praise for Fang Chang'an was true, but it was far from enough to ask him to stand up and applaud. He did this mainly to show his attitude, so as not to be punished for some of the fierce words just now.
The instructor Tang Pengfei and the head teacher Song Changxian stood in front of their seats and stared at Fang Changan. Fang Changan showed a somewhat apologetic and embarrassing smile, and then walked to his seat to sit down.
Several girls beside him all looked at him. Fang Changan was undoubtedly concerned about Shen Mo and Wang Ke. The two girls' bright eyes flashed, half surprised and half happy. Shen Mo habitually bulged his cheeks slightly, Wang Ke gently pursed his lips, and then lowered his head in the sitting movement, so that his pride and admiration would not be too obvious.
Everyone in the venue sat down, and the applause had stopped, but the atmosphere had obviously not fully recovered, so the next person performed obviously often when he came on stage, probably because he was not confident about the content of his speech and lacked the ability to mobilize emotions during the speech.
The No. 1 Middle School of the City is the only one in the city. It has five quotas and only three in other schools. However, there are still more than 20 contestants. The scheduled speech time is three hours, and the period is ten minutes of rest.
The judges and leaders returned to the backstage during the break, and the atmosphere here relaxed. Fang Chang'an was about to accept the praise from Shen Mo and Wang Ke. Xiao Jin appeared next to him "just right", compared his thumbs to him, and said:
"Awesome! I admire you!"
Fang Changan smiled and said, "Just get used to it."
Xiao Jin didn't know what to say for a moment, and looked at the two beautiful girls next to him, and seemed to understand something. He smiled and turned around, no longer annoying.
Seeing that the light bulb was gone, Fang Changan turned to Shen Mo and Wang Ke and said, "Do you two have anything to say?"
"No." Shen Mo glanced at him, turned his head with his cheeks puffed.
Wang Ke also glanced at him, wrinkled his nose and whispered: "But the twins just now may have them, you can go and ask them."
Shen Mo's eyes lit up, and his head turned to Fang Chang'an and pointed hard. The dimples appeared on his left cheek again, "Yes, yes, go find them."
"OK."
Fang Changan glanced at them, then stood up and stood up.
The two little girls' eyes widened at the same time, and watched him stand up and walk out of the lecture hall, go out, and come back a few minutes later, with hands still wet.
After confirming this detail, the two of them quickly withdrew their gazes at the same time, and still ignored him and spoke to Song Tang and the others.
Fang Chang'an was not alone, because in his speech just now, many people came to say hello, and even students from other schools responded without any rudely, chatted for a few words, and the second half began soon.
The speech contest lasted until after twelve o'clock. After more than three hours of sitting, many people were "exhausted" after the rest. Fortunately, when the rankings were announced, they were still energetic.
After all the speeches, the judges entered the backstage again for discussion. In just a few minutes, there was no idle in the audience, and many people were discussing it.
Amid the noisy sound, Fang Changan vaguely heard his name more than once. It seems that his "on-the-spot" performance today really impressed many people.
He originally had no hope of winning the ranking, and impunity was the best result, but just now Shu Ang supported it with a very clear statement, and he felt that there was still hope.
The judges quickly returned, and the leader of the Education Bureau who was chaired by Fang Chang'an, who had been on the stage, said: "After the careful consideration and discussion of the judges, the top three of the speech contest were selected."
"They are Chang'an, a house from No. 1 Middle School in the city, with 94 points and the first prize."
"Liang Ziyi from No. 2 Middle School, 86 points and second prize."
"Fan Tingting from No. 1 Middle School of the City, with 85 points and third prize."
"I'll invite three students to the stage."
Fang Chang'an and two other girls walked onto the stage together, lined up.
The host continued: "Next, we welcome Secretary Shu to present the awards to the three students with warm applause, warmly welcome!"
Shu Ang stood up, pressed his hands twice, then walked onto the stage, and took the trophy and certificate from the tray held by three beautiful girls wearing cheongsams in the cold weather, and handed it over to the three award-winning classmates in turn.
The certificates are not different, and the trophy is from large to small. First, the largest one is given to Fang Chang'an. It is a glass sculpture holding a microphone. It looks quite exquisite, but it is definitely not worth it. Moreover, because it was made in advance, there is no name engraved.
"It's very good to say, study hard."
Shu Ang is each very tall, similar to Fang Chang'an, and looks relatively strong. With the momentum brought by his status, he feels very majestic. When he handed the trophy and certificate to Fang Chang'an, he whispered his advice, which also made people involuntarily convinced.
"Thank you, Secretary Shu."
Fang Changan leaned slightly and thanked him sincerely. If it weren't for Shu An's "help", he would have been in the limelight today, but he would have been scolded after he returned.
Shu Ang smiled and said nothing, and continued to present the award to the next winner.
After the award ceremony, the four of them took photos together to serve as souvenirs before stepping down again, and the speech contest ended here.
After Fang Chang'an returned to his seat, he consciously handed over the trophy and certificate to Shen Mo next to him. Shen Mo turned his head and said that he didn't like it. Fang Chang'an said, "Then you pass it over."
Shen Mo turned around and glared at him, took it and handed it to Wang Ke, but Wang Ke refused to answer. The two looked at each other for two seconds, then blinked, one took the trophy and the other opened the certificate, looked down, and passed it to Song Tang next to him, then stood up and walked towards the exit.
Fang Chang'an turned around and asked, "Do we still have to go back to school?"
Wang Ke said: "I won't go back, don't you still have to have dinner with Wang Yuwei?"
Fang Changan looked at Song Tang and Cheng Juan again, and Cheng Juan said, "Then let's go back first."
Shen Mo said: "It's together, it's okay for you to go back."
Song Tang said: "No, I'm going to find my sister in the afternoon."
"Oh well."
Fang Chang'an was waiting for Song Changxian in the corridor outside, and said that he would not go back with the school bus. Song Changxian looked at him for a second, nodded and said, "Okay, be careful."
"Okay, thank you Teacher Song."
Shen Mo and the others also thanked Song Changxian, and then waited for Wang Yuwei next to him. Li Ya and Li Shi, the twin sisters, were also beside him. They looked at Fang Chang'an and couldn't help but look at Shen Mo, Wang Ke and Song Tang, the three beautiful girls who were a little too much, waved to say goodbye to Wang Yuwei.
Wang Ke said: "Why don't you go together?"
"No, no, let's go back first."
The two sisters rejected Wang Ke's kindness and left with the teachers and classmates. Soon there were only two incomplete backs left in the crowd and slowly left.
"Buzz"
Shen Mo's cell phone suddenly vibrated. Wang Ke leaned over and looked at it. Without saying a word, Liu Bei asked next to him, "What's wrong?"
Wang Ke whispered: "Her uncle asked her to have dinner together."
Mao Shanshan asked: "Then are you going?"
Shen Mo said: "I won't go, I'll accompany you."
Several people were hungry and left the exhibition center. They first found a restaurant on the side of the road for lunch. After the initial unfamiliarity, the girls quickly became familiar with each other.
After dinner, the few people maintained the good habits passed down by Shen Mo. They first took their old classmates to Yunlong Lake to play, stroll and take a break. The warm sun shone in the lake, the small pavilion near the lake, and old friends talked and laughed, not knowing that the red sun was hanging west.
While preparing to take Wang Yuwei to the station, Shen Mo received a call from her mother asking her to go to her uncle's house for dinner together. Shen Mo glanced at Fang Chang'an and responded.
Fang Chang'an and the others took Wang Yuwei to the station and then back to school.
Shen Mo waited by the lake to pick him up, and arrived at his uncle's house together. On the way, Shen Chengli and Shu Mei asked about today's speech competition. Shen Mo picked up unimportant things and said, even Fang Chang'an won the first prize, but he didn't say what he said. Then he sat in the back row and laughed secretly, looking forward to waiting to arrive at his uncle's house. When his parents heard his uncle mention what Fang Chang'an's true expression would be today.
