2372 The Face-slapping Duo

Wu Zilin: "…"

What were they staring at him for!

He didn't even say anything!

Wang Yanglin came out and everyone saw he was without luggage.

Wang Yanglin explained, "I have to attend Mega's Charity Night as well, along with another brand activity. So I'm staying outside of school for convenience.

"But Mega's Charity Night is at night, and while the brand activity is in the day, it's after our competition. It won't hinder our rehearsal in the day."

Hearing this, Wu Zilin commented, "Yanglin, you're quite busy here. Lu Man seems rather free."

The others: "…"

Was there something wrong with Wu Zilin!

Lu Man raised her brow but remained silent.

Wang Yanglin had heard from Principal Lu about Wu Zilin's matter briefly.

Principal Lu didn't go into details with Wang Yanglin, and that's because of the Wu family and him wanting to save Wu Zilin's face.

But Wang Yanglin knew, at least, that Wu Zilin was on bad terms with the others.

And he got to witness Wu Zilin's ridiculousness on the day he just arrived.

Now, he finally knew why the others were insistant on driving Wu Zilin away.

His constant taunts and jeers were cancerous for the team, like a wave of negative energy flooding them.

Facing him daily was hard enough. Who would still be in the mood to focus on the competition?

Wang Yanglin replied, "Lu Man is attending Mega's Charity Night too."

Seeing Lu Man's surprise, Wang Yanglin said, "Oh? Your manager hasn't informed you? I'd even asked if anyone else from China was attending when I received the invitation. The organizer said Gao Zishan and Dong Qinrong will attend, as well as a few other artistes who are brand ambassadors. We're the only new actors joining. But I've only just received the notice too, so your manager likely will tell you in time."

Hu Zhonghui's call came immediately after Wang Yanglin finished speaking.

Indeed, it was regarding what Wang Yanglin had spoken about.

"How convenient, since you're already in the US," Hu Zhonghui said.

Lu Man spoke briefly to Hu Zhonghui before hanging up, then said to Wang Yanglin, "What a coincidence. My manager called me right after you finished talking."

Everyone then turned towards Wu Zilin once more.

Only to see his thunderous expression.

Were Wang Yanglin and Lu Man a face-slapping duo?

To welcome Wang Yanglin, everyone went out for lunch.

Wu Zilin brazenly joined in.

During the meal, Lu Man said, "I went to Broadway to meet Robert and Hayer yesterday."

Though the exchange students had already set off for the US and missed the competition going on at the National Film Academy, they'd seen the video afterward and knew of Robert and Hayer.

Moreover, if one came here to study without seeing a Broadway show once, it would be as if they'd never come to New York.

So they all bought tickets to see the show.

And they saw Robert and Hayer's performance with their own eyes.

They'd heard of them both at school, and it's far more direct and impressive than hearing of them back home.

After coming here, they knew very clearly how popular and good the two were.

All perked up upon hearing Lu Man's words, and their eyes were shining brightly.

They had the same thoughts as Lu Man yesterday, not daring to hope of successfully inviting Robert and Hayer.

It was exciting enough for Lu Man to be able to contact them.

They thought that if the two top-tier actors couldn't make it, having them introduce other experienced actors to help was something plausible.
