Chapter 178 The Taste of Love

When Li Luo and Yan Zhusheng came to the preparation area behind the stage, they immediately saw Kong Junxiang, who looked nervous.

It was only then that Li Luo realized that Kong Junxiang, who had accompanied them to sit down in the open space in front of the stage, disappeared after a while.

Originally Li Luo thought he was going to the bathroom. After all, Teacher Ding also moved a chair and followed him over. There was no way Kong Junxiang would let Teacher Ding sit there alone to watch the show.

But he didn't expect to see Kong Junxiang here.

Li Luo walked to Kong Junxiang with a curious look on his face and asked, "Teacher Kong, what are you doing here?"

Kong Junxiang, who had a nervous look on his face, was suddenly greeted by someone and trembled all over, obviously a little frightened.

Only after turning around and seeing Li Luo did Kong Junxiang feel slightly relieved.

"It's you." Kong Junxiang reacted, "You and Yan Zhusheng, you still have a rock club performance tonight, right?"

"Yes." Li Luo nodded, and then asked again, "So why is Mr. Kong here?"

"Ahem, ahem..." Kong Junxiang cleared his throat, looking a little embarrassed. He did not answer directly, but asked, "After I left just now, Teacher Ding didn't say anything, right?"

"No, I'm watching a show." Li Luo said.

"That's good." Kong Junxiang took a deep breath, then exhaled, and finally told Li Luo, "After this show on stage ends, the next show will be mine."

As soon as these words came out, Li Luo raised his eyebrows.

Yan Zhusheng beside him also looked curious: "What is Mr. Kong going to perform?"

"I'm not as talented as you guys." Kong Junxiang laughed awkwardly, "I'll just go up and sing a song."

"Oh." Yan Zhusheng nodded, "I sang it for Teacher Ding."

Li Luo coughed twice and warned Yan Zhusheng: "Don't be so direct when saying some things. We should be more tactful, otherwise it will be embarrassing for Teacher Kong."

"What do you mean?" Yan Zhusheng asked with his head tilted.

"I should say." Li Luo thought for a moment, "Teacher Kong, you should be singing this song for someone you like, right?"

Kong Junxiang was full of black lines on his face: "...If you two don't know how to talk, you don't have to talk."

"Look." Yan Zhusheng turned his head and looked at Li Luo, "Didn't you mean the same thing as what you said to me?"

"Same meaning, but I'm more tactful." Li Luo said shamelessly, "Come on, Mr. Kong, we'll be cheering you on from behind!"

"Stop talking. The more I talk, the more nervous I get." Kong Junxiang rubbed his hands and exhaled a breath of white air in the cold wind. "During the rehearsal before, I couldn't find the right point to start the lyrics. I was always a beat late."

"What are you singing?" Li Luo thought for a moment, "If it's a little slow, I can help Teacher Kong remind him later."

After discussing the details with Kong Junxiang, Li Luo secretly pulled Yan Zhusheng to a corner in the backstage and told her something.

Yan Zhusheng nodded and immediately left the backstage, not knowing where he was going.

……

The bonfire party started at around 7pm. After several wonderful performances, the sophomore girl who was in charge of hosting the party came on stage again and reported to everyone:

“Thanks to the wonderful performances from the seniors of Class 33 of Senior High School. They not only showed everyone’s fighting spirit for the college entrance examination, but also unearthed the little fun of daily campus life.”

"After our students' wonderful performances, a teacher volunteered to bring us a song that fits the theme of our bonfire party very well."

"Next, we would like to invite our head teacher of Grade 18, Mr. Kong Junxiang, to perform "A Fire in Winter" for everyone!"

"Pfft..." Zhang Guohuang, who was straightening his back and staring at the stage position through a telescope, almost laughed out loud when he saw Kong Junxiang appear in the camera and heard the words "a fire in winter".

"What kind of taste does Lao Kong have? Such a tacky song..."

"Don't worry about whether it's tacky or not, it's quite classic anyway." Zhu Yufei said with a smile, "And it really fits the theme of the bonfire party."

Xu Yinghuan, who was sitting next to Teacher Ding, was surprised at first after hearing the host's announcement, and then immediately turned to look at Teacher Ding.

Dingxiang also looked surprised at this time.

When Ding Xiang saw Kong Junxiang really appear on the stage, holding the microphone with a nervous look on his face, she covered her mouth with some emotion in her eyes.

Then a smile appeared on his face that he couldn't help but smile.

When the number one peruser in Class 8 saw this scene, he was immediately overwhelmed with happiness and his mouth corners couldn't stop rising. He cheered for Teacher Kong crazily in his heart.

Did not expect ah did not expect.

It would have been fine if she just ate the home-cooked meals of Li Luo and Yan Zhusheng on a daily basis, but Xu Yinghuan had never expected that she would now be able to regularly eat the feasts prepared by her homeroom teacher herself.

"Teacher Ding, it's Teacher Kong." Xu Yinghuan leaned close to Ding Xiang's ear, suppressed her excitement, and said tentatively, "Didn't he just say he was going to the bathroom?"

"I didn't expect that either." Ding Xiang's mood was obviously fluctuating at this moment, but in front of her students, she still maintained her dignity as a teacher.

"This song should be sung by Teacher Kong to you, Teacher Ding, right?" Xu Yinghuan continued, trying hard to make herself happy.

Ding Xiang's lips curled up slightly, but she still shook her head and laughed: "You can't say that. He is your class teacher. Of course, this song is sung for you."

wow~
Although she didn't get Teacher Ding's personal acknowledgement, Xu Yinghuan's words of consideration for Teacher Kong at this moment made her mouth almost ooze sugar.

Good, good, that's really well said! Xu Ying happily chatted with Teacher Ding.

Soon, music started playing on the stage.

Kong Junxiang stood on the stage with a nervous look on his face, listening carefully to the rhythm of the music.

Originally, he wanted to find Ding Xiang's position as soon as he got on the stage, and then finish the song while looking into her eyes.

But he obviously miscalculated.

Although if you look carefully, you will definitely find it.

But he was so nervous after going on stage that Kong Junxiang's eyes swept through the crowd, but were soon interrupted by the music.

Then he panicked, quickly looked away, and tried to distinguish the prelude music.

If it was the original arrangement, he would probably have to be half a beat late to get to the beginning of the verse.

But this time is different.

When the music was about to enter the main part, three drum sounds of "da, da, da" were suddenly heard from the backstage.

The drumbeats were barely audible to the audience.

But for Kong Junxiang, who had been waiting with full concentration, these were like three thunderclaps, which immediately brought him into the rhythm of the main song.

"You are like a fire in the winter~"

"The blazing fire warms my heart~"

Once the main song started smoothly, Kong Junxiang instantly got into the mood and sang very smoothly and naturally.

Although he was still a little trembling due to nervousness, no one would care about it at the bonfire party.

Dingxiang sat at the front of Class 8, listening attentively to the song sung by Kong Junxiang. A smile appeared on her face unconsciously, and the more she smiled, the happier she became, without even realizing it.

Only Xu Yinghuan, who had been enjoying herself the whole time, secretly saw this scene. She was so happy that she stamped her feet, with a look of satisfaction on her face.

When Kong Junxiang sang "Your big eyes are bright and sparkling, like the brightest star in the sky", two faint blushes appeared on Dingxiang's face.

The students from Class 8 sitting in the back also laughed and cheered, showing that they understood what was happening.

Zhang Guohuang even stood up and shouted loudly to the stage: "Teacher Kong is awesome! You sang well!"

Kong Junxiang was singing well on the stage, but was almost interrupted by this kid Zhang Guohuang.

But thanks to Zhang Guohuang's voice, Kong Junxiang looked in the direction of the voice and found Zhang Guohuang's location at a glance.

Then he pushed forward based on Zhang Guohuang's position and found Ding Xiang immediately.

The next second, the two looked at each other from a distance. Dingxiang lowered her head a little shyly and tucked the hair around her ears.

But soon, she raised her head again, looked at Kong Junxiang on the stage, and waved at him.

So Kong Junxiang also waved on the stage.

Others thought that Teacher Kong was waving to their classmates.

But only the students in Class 8 knew who their head teacher was waving to.

Xu Yinghuan took all of this in and swayed her body happily from side to side.

At this moment, Yan Zhusheng's figure suddenly appeared in front of Class 8 and came to Ding Xiang.

"Zhu Sheng?" Xu Yinghuan was stunned for a moment when she saw Yan Zhu Sheng suddenly appear. "Why are you back? Didn't you say you were going backstage to prepare?"

"Li Luo asked me to come." Yan Zhusheng said this, and suddenly took out a bunch of flowers from his back and handed them to Ding Xiang, "Teacher Ding, this is for you. Li Luo said that you can decide whether to go up or not."

Dingxiang took the bouquet of flowers in a daze and took a quick look at it.

There were about four or five flowers, and I could smell a faint fragrance, so it was obvious that they were real flowers.

At the bottom, it was just wrapped with a few sheets of tissue paper, and you could even faintly smell the fragrance of soil.

"Yan Zhusheng, where did you get this flower?" Ding Xiang couldn't help but ask.

Yan Zhusheng blinked and recalled: "It was the smell of love that led me to guide them to Teacher Ding's hands."

clove:"……"

"Teacher Ding, please go up quickly." Xu Yinghuan reminded quietly, "Teacher Kong will finish singing in a while."

After being reminded by Xu Yinghuan, Dingxiang temporarily stopped thinking about where these flowers came from.

She looked back at Kong Junxiang on the stage and bit her lip. Before she even stood up, her cheeks were already flushed with shame at her own thoughts and fantasies, and her ears were slightly burning.

But she finally stood up, and under Xu Yinghuan's expectant gaze, she walked between the seats and walked towards the stage with firm steps.
