"Calm down? How can I calm down?!"
Feng Duo exclaimed excitedly, "I really thought the Music Department was going to be ruined under my watch just now. I never expected this was all part of your plan."
"Gu Luo, your suona performance was absolutely incredible!!!"
"You have no idea how the students and tourists in the audience looked—it’s beyond words!"
As she spoke, she glanced around and asked curiously, "Where’s Qu Meimei? I almost misunderstood her earlier."
"I never thought you two would reconcile!"
Gu Luo simply listened quietly.
From an outsider’s perspective, the twists and turns of the performance would naturally be seen as a deliberate arrangement, designed to deliver a more thrilling experience to the audience.
No one would ever guess that Qu Meimei had genuinely tried to sabotage the school anniversary performance, let alone imagine that Gu Luo had saved the day with his suona and delivered what could only be called a legendary performance.
Gu Luo chose not to expose Qu Meimei here, as he had other plans.
Instead, he changed the subject. "President, wouldn’t you say the Music Department’s performance at the school anniversary was outstanding? Shouldn’t we celebrate with a gathering?"
"Of course! Celebrating after a performance is a tradition in the Music Department." Feng Duo then added enthusiastically, "And this wasn’t just outstanding—it was historic! A milestone for the Music Department! From now on, whenever people talk about Guangya’s Music Department, they’ll remember today’s breathtaking performance!"
Luo Shuning walked over at that moment and stood beside Gu Luo.
Feng Duo was still a little confused about the relationship between Gu Luo, Luo Shuning, and Qu Meimei.
But since they seemed to have reconciled, she didn’t dwell on it.
To her, as long as the performance went smoothly, nothing else mattered.
Gu Luo exchanged a glance with Luo Shuning before asking Feng Duo softly, "President, is there anything you’d like to say to Shuning now?"
Hearing this, Feng Duo immediately stepped forward and linked arms with Luo Shuning, her face beaming. "Shuning, you were amazing!"
"From now on, the Music Department will be in your hands!"
Luo Shuning responded with nothing more than a polite smile, offering no concrete acknowledgment.
"Really, I’ve hinted at it before, but now I promise you—the position of the next Music Department president is yours." Thinking Luo Shuning might doubt her, Feng Duo quickly reaffirmed her assurance.
"Alright, President, that’s enough for now. We can discuss the rest at the gathering," Gu Luo said, unable to bear another word from Feng Duo. "Shuning and I have something to talk about, so we’ll take our leave."
"Yes, Gu Luo and I still have matters to discuss," Luo Shuning nodded in agreement.
"Fine then. I’ll post the gathering details in the group later."
Without another thought, Feng Duo released Luo Shuning’s arm.
Gu Luo and Luo Shuning then walked side by side out of the auditorium through the staff passageway.
Their steps were unhurried, their figures perfectly in sync.
Neither had any interest in watching the remaining performances. Right now, they just wanted to enjoy their time together.
"Finally, it’s over..."
Once outside, Luo Shuning stretched slightly, as if releasing all her exhaustion.
She turned to Gu Luo with a smile. "Brother, we owe this to you."
"It was so, so, so amazing!"
She knew full well that the piece Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix was Gu Luo’s original composition.
Her brother was a once-in-a-century genius!
Gu Luo smiled faintly before speaking with quiet seriousness.
"Shuning, this isn’t over yet."

grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too.
