The closing ceremony slowly got closer to the end.

The evening was not too boring with amazing and mediocre shows interlaced between each other.

The last performance was a very interesting group dance.

The amazing performance made the venue lively.

In the recording room in the back, a girl watching the performance on stage couldn't help but lamented, “Sophomore Class #9’s performance was incredible!”

Others nodded as well.
“Their class gave the best performance last year as well.”

Pausing, the person grumbled again in a low voice.
“Truth be told, I think this program is best put at the very beginning.
It would have made a good starting show.”

“I heard that this program after the dance was slotted to be the first originally.
But the president of the Art Club moved it to the very end later.”

“Who? Gu XueEr?”

“Mmhmm.
She said it’s best as the ending show.”

Upon hearing that the girl frowned slightly, “But this is not the final show, is it?”

There was still the performance from the student representative after it.

“The final show is Gu Xi’s performance,” said the person before taking a look at the program guide.
Then they frowned.
“The final program is Gu Xi’s piano performance.
Would that seem somewhat deserted following Class #9’s dance program?”

“I feel the same way……”

“Hush, she’s coming.”

Seeing that Gu XueEr had also come to the recording room, the two people quickly stopped with their chattering.

Gu XueEr had already overheard their conversation.

She did do that on purpose.

Having Gu Xi’s piano performance after the radiating dance show would make it seem monotonous and deserted.

By then, Gu Xi’s performance would be a flop regardless of how well she did.

As for earlier, Gu XueEr didn’t stop the girl junior to her from posting the footage of Gu Xi’s rehearsal out of the kindness of her heart.
She only wanted the “best” effect right now.

The less they know, the more the others would be disappointed at Gu Xi’s very dry piano performance.

Gu XueEr sneered.
She watched the stage and waited for Gu Xi to get on.

The shock and the liveliness from the group dance were still lingering when the light on the stage dimmed and, a little while later, a beam of light fell on the stage.

Gu Xi walked out from one side of the stage.

When she got onto the stage, many from below the stage gasped.

“So pretty!”

They were referring to both Gu Xi and her outfit.

Gu Xi had on the gown designed by Gu Chenyi’s mother right now.

The gown was perfectly made for Gu Xi’s on-stage performance.

The dreamy white color fit a girl her age very well.
In order to make it seem less plain, the front of the dress was short but long in the back.

What was really dazzling was the colorful and faintly discernible flowers on the skirt part of the gown.
The flowers adorning the dress made it appear beautiful and dreamy and the colored beads, sparkling under the light, also make it appear surreal.

Gu Xi’s appearing on stage doubtlessly made her the focus of the entire venue.

Nevertheless, some were still skeptical: Gu Xi’s appearance was beautiful alright but with just a piano performance, wasn’t that still on the plain side?

Other had anticipation.
Some were anticipating an amazing show while others wanted to see whether Gu Xi’s performance would crash and burn.

With the different in brightness level on and off stage, Gu Xi couldn’t really see the audiences.
All she could see was the colorful glowsticks.
Even so, she was still feeling a little nervous.

She took a deep breath and slowly walked toward the center of the stage.

The spotlight followed Gu Xi and was finally shining on the piano in the center of the stage.

Gu Xi bowed toward the audiences before sitting down in front of the piano.

As she sat, the spotlight shut off and was replaced by a ring of halo around Gu Xi and the piano.

The transition was seamless and not abrupt.

If anyone was to look carefully, they would notice that the halo around her didn’t come from anywhere.
It appeared to just be hovering around her.

Nevertheless, most in the audiences did not notice that detail.
