My Love Rival and I Are 100% Compatible - Chapter 26

The drama elective teacher’s surname was Chen, she was a tall and slender female Omega, and one of the chief performers at the Imperial Royal Theater.

The drama elective at Guyun Academy was divided into culture and performance.

Culture was tested first, and the final performance would take place in the last two weeks.

Chi Yueshan was nervously memorizing all kinds of drama knowledge every day, and she was also worried about what program she would perform.

Teacher Chen smiled when she saw Xi Zhoumeng come over, she asked the remaining students to discuss among themselves and then walked over.

Xi Zhoumeng wanted to say something to Sheng Yangkui, but Teacher Chen came over, so she had to stop.

“Zhoumeng, why are you here today?”

The two of them were standing not far from Chi Yueshan, they could hear the conversation.

Xi Zhoumeng was a little taller than Teacher Chen, because of her height, she rarely wore high heels, otherwise, she would be very conspicuous among Omegas.

Although she was already conspicuous enough.

“I heard it’s almost the end of the semester.”

She smiled at the teacher, Duan Daizhen also giggled and went over, “We’re here to find out the scope of your culture exam this year, Teacher.”

Chi Yueshan mumbled, “Why does everyone let her get away with everything.”

Xuan Ping was standing next to Chi Yueshan, she heard and said softly, “I hope Senior Xi can join, that way, even if we’re not randomly assigned, we can ask her to teach you, right?”

This kind of drama performance class was too painful for students like them who came from the lower world.

Xuan Ping wasn’t even a student in this elective, she was just here to accompany Chi Yueshan.

She sat on the side and wrote her elective report.

Chi Yueshan: “I don’t want to.”

She touched the golden button on her watch, the stuffy nose that came with her heat cycle made her gulp down a mouthful of water.

“I really don’t want to fail.”

Xuan Ping held back a laugh, “You said you wanted to be in the top three when you first started school.”

Chi Yueshan sighed, “It’s impossible this semester.”

She was completely listless, she knew very well that without a recommendation letter, even if she got into the top three, it wouldn’t be of any use.

Even though no one in the academy made things difficult for them, the gap was insurmountable, let alone asking a noble to write a recommendation letter for her.

There weren’t many nobles in the academy, Senior Wen didn’t remember her, and as for Xi Zhoumeng…

Chi Yueshan already owed her a lot of favors, besides, the recommendation letter also needed the family crest. Senior Wen didn’t have much power at home, even if Chi Yueshan found her, why would she do this for her?

Xi Zhoumeng was even worse.

“Are you two not going to participate in the performance class?”

Teacher Chen asked the two students in front of her.

Xi Zhoumeng didn’t even take off her velvet gloves, she didn’t know where she got them, there were pearls hooked on the lace of the gloves.

She touched the pearl, in her peripheral vision, Chi Yueshan was lying on the desk, whispering to Xuan Ping.

Duan Daizhen was about to speak, but she heard Xi Zhoumeng ask, “How many groups are there for the performance this year?”

The teacher looked at the screen, “There are over forty students in each class this semester, there should be five groups.”

Duan Daizhen: “That’s quite a few.”

Xi Zhoumeng: “Five groups, is it because the number of people in each group is small?”

The curriculum changes every year, Duan Daizhen thought for a moment, “I remember last year, we performed a whole play, there were more talented people.”

The female Omega teacher had known the two students in front of her for many years.

Duan Daizhen was recommended to the theater as a child actor when she was less than ten years old, Xi Zhoumeng joined the theater in middle school, Duan Daizhen still remembered that Xi Zhoumeng was sent by her Omega mother, Teacher Chen was clearly written all over with “I don’t like her.”

But the person she didn’t like became the top of that batch of theater actors.

As the teacher who had guided them when they first joined, Teacher Chen still felt it was a pity that Xi Zhoumeng had refused the invitation from the Royal Theater.

Otherwise, with Xi Zhoumeng’s talent, she could have become the most dazzling pearl in the empire.

Xi Zhoumeng: “Is it still random assignment this year?”

Teacher Chen glanced at the screen, “No, I’m letting them decide on the script first, then decide on the actors.”

Xi Zhoumeng: “I’ve already completed my credits for this semester.”

Duan Daizhen hummed, “So?”

Xi Zhoumeng: “The end-of-semester party planning should be for exchanging special gifts with points, I want points.”

Duan Daizhen didn’t understand for a moment, Teacher Chen hummed, “I didn’t add your name, so you’re performing for fun, just pick a group.”

She was quite happy, after all, Xi Zhoumeng was very lazy, you could tell from middle school that she didn’t want to move.

But she could act anything, as if heaven was feeding her.

Duan Daizhen asked in shock, “What? You’re going to perform?”

Of course, Xi Zhoumeng was going to perform, the suspected second female lead, Sheng Yangkui, was here, and the cannon fodder female supporting character, Chi Yueshan, was also here.

Wouldn’t it be boring without her, the number one cannon fodder female supporting character, in this situation?

“I like the script Teacher gave us this year.”

She pointed to the one on the left of the screen, “The Yellow Rose,” “I’ve never tried this kind of theme.”

Teacher Chen chuckled, Duan Daizhen didn’t react at first, she asked in surprise after a while, “If I remember correctly, this is a taboo theme, right?”

Teacher Chen nodded, “The ones I gave before were too conventional, taboo and art, I’m looking forward to this collision.”

Before, it was always gods and demons, girls and sea monsters, but this one was about morality.

Duan Daizhen: “I’m a little tempted too.”

Xi Zhoumeng raised an eyebrow, “Don’t steal it from me.”

Duan Daizhen: “Help me see if there’s anything suitable for me, I’m just sitting here doing nothing anyway.”

Xi Zhoumeng: “How about “The Fallen Angel”?”

Duan Daizhen: “Then I’ll be the antagonist, what role are you going to play in yours?”

Xi Zhoumeng didn’t even think, “Naturally, the vicious stepmother.”

The teacher also found it very interesting, the two of them were far beyond their peers in terms of skill.

Chi Yueshan listened for half and felt terrified, when Teacher Chen went on stage, she looked at Xi Zhoumeng.

She found that the other person was looking at her.

Xi Zhoumeng had smoke-gray eyes, just like the circle of fur on the cuff of her school robe.

It was a difference, but it was also a kind of mark.

She seemed to hate being imitated, but her every move was easy to make people yearn for.

Xi Zhoumeng curled her lips, Chi Yueshan turned her head sharply.

She covered her chest, Xuan Ping thought she was uncomfortable and asked, “What’s wrong?”

Chi Yueshan shook her head and said it was nothing, but she was scared by her abnormal heartbeat, her face turned pale.

This feeling was so strange.

“Okay, now I’m going to start assigning groups, if you need to switch, you can discuss it privately.”

“Everyone look up at the screen.”

The elective teacher’s voice was gentle, Xuan Ping propped her face up and said, “Yueshan, how do you think your acting is?”

Chi Yueshan: “It’s terrible, if it wasn’t for graduation…”

Xuan Ping sighed, “I told you not to choose divination, there are so many nobles’ Betas and Omegas here.”

Chi Yueshan couldn’t regret it, “I just want to play a background character and get my credits.”

She didn’t want to be in a group with nobles either, these young ladies and gentlemen were very troublesome, she might get into an argument with them again.

The screen showed the results of the random assignment.

Chi Yueshan’s holocom also notified her that she was assigned to the group “The Fallen Angel.”

Ah, this script doesn’t have any roles I can play.

Chi Yueshan could already see the painful sight of herself failing.

When winter break came, she didn’t plan to go back to the lower world, she planned to stay at school, or go to the upper world’s mechanical city to find a shop that provided food and lodging to work.

If she failed, she would have to pay for a retake.

Damn, I really don’t have any extra money.

Duan Daizhen: “There are several Omegas in this group that I know, there are two betas, oh, I think this elective should have Alphas too.”

She had made this suggestion many times, but the school’s teaching office hadn’t adopted it.

“Betas playing Alphas, it’s not easy to do, but it’s possible to invite them specially, right?”

Duan Daizhen saw Chi Yueshan’s name, “There’s also an Omega, it’s so hard to choose the role arrangement for this script.”

After the results were announced, everyone sat together according to their names, Chi Yueshan was about to go over.

One of the betas there said to her, “Classmate, can we switch groups?”

The words were blunt and ruthless, even making Chi Yueshan a little embarrassed.

Everyone who passed by couldn’t help but watch the show.

Chi Yueshan was very famous now, everyone recognized her.

They also knew she was from the lower world.

People from the lower world spoke as if they had a poor and shabby air, reinforcing people’s stereotypes. People always sensed an inherent humility about her.

Not to mention that drama performance was originally an upper-class art.

Chi Yueshan bit her lip, “Who do I switch with?”

This course was really hard to learn, the history and literature knowledge was incredibly obscure. The education of Omegas in the lower world was basically three days of fishing and two days of drying nets, Chi Yueshan was still wandering when she should have been receiving an education, the shelter was just an empty shell.

When she settled down, the school didn’t want her anymore.

Omegas like Xuan Ping, whose parents were still alive, were very rare, they could continue to study until they differentiated.

Chi Yueshan occasionally heard Xuan Ping complain, she could feel that her parents loved her very much.

Chi Yueshan was never one to give up, she would get up at dawn and recite these obscure specialized terms.

But the elite education of the nobles was too advanced, even though she gave it her all, she still couldn’t reach a high level.

As a result, Chi Yueshan thought of Wen Xinghuo even more, she wondered if she had a similar painful experience when she first went from the lower world to the upper world.

But now Wen Xinghuo was so excellent, it made Chi Yueshan unable to complain.

But she was still human; she felt sadness and pain.

Maintaining her composure and not letting her eyes get red was the result of her best efforts.

She still had her hard-earned dignity.

The male beta was ordinary-looking, but the family crest on his chest showed his extraordinary family background, he raised his chin and said, “Just switch with anyone.”

Chi Yueshan was the only one from the lower world in this elective.

Everyone didn’t really want to be in a group with someone from the lower world, not to mention looking down on them, they were afraid of being dragged down.

Xuan Ping was originally texting Mu Lai, but she stood up when she heard this, she was about to go over, but someone pressed on her shoulder.

“Stop that.”

Xi Zhoumeng said.

Her skirt swayed in the air like a fish, her gloved hand tapped the crest on the male beta’s chest.

” Duan Daizhen, you switch.”

Xi Zhoumeng had taken a nap at noon, she felt much better.

Her hair, which seemed to be covered in starlight, was incredibly smooth, as if the frizziness Chi Yueshan saw when she woke up was a dream.

Duan Daizhen walked over, “What?”

The others also whispered –

“What does that mean, is Senior Duan going to join our group?”

“Really? If Senior Duan is here, we’ll definitely get high marks!”

“Damn, Senior Xi is so beautiful, she looks so expensive… I want to be touched by her as well.”

“Even when Senior Xi is being mean, she’s still so beautiful, I want to bite her gloves…”

The male beta was sweating cold.

This touch might have made him happy in normal times, but now it was incredibly embarrassing.

It was even humiliating.

The ranking among the six major noble families was always based on real strength.

The Xi family was the Queen’s hero, they were even the sharp blade that expanded the empire’s territory, they had sacrificed countless excellent Alphas throughout the generations.

Even though Xi Li, the current generation, was a freeloader, he still had the supreme glory of his ancestors.

Xi Zhoumeng’s beauty was impeccable, she was a rare S+ spiritual power Omega.

Many people felt it was a pity that she wasn’t an Alpha, otherwise, the next insect tide might have been another victory for our R-star empire.

“Sen, Senior…”

The male beta couldn’t even finish his sentence, Duan Daizhen walked over to smooth things over, “It’s no big deal, just switch, you find another group.”

Duan Daizhen turned to Chi Yueshan, “Then junior, you’re in a group with me?”

Envy filled the air.

Xi Zhoumeng: “No.”

She slowly took off her gloves and threw them into Chi Yueshan’s arms, “She’s in my Yellow Rose.”

Chi Yueshan had just looked up from the unread messages on her holocom, she was still angry about Xi Zhoumeng asking her to go for treatment, she gasped, “What, what?”

Xuan Ping said softly, “Senior Xi is going to perform “The Yellow Rose” script.”

Chi Yueshan picked up the gloves in her arms, they smelled like Xi Zhoumeng, a familiar scent.

The people around them were silent for a few seconds, then they started whispering again –

“Is this really a rival? I want to have this kind of treatment…”

“Woo woo woo, what a domineering love story of a poor lower-world Omega being spoiled, I’m a dirt dog, I love watching this…”

“Chi Yueshan is so lucky!!! But senior isn’t an Alpha… she can’t last…”

Chi Yueshan was dizzy from the smell, the feeling of Xi Zhoumeng hugging her came back.

She glared angrily at the classmates who were still discussing, she thought: Who wants this kind of luck!

What domineering love! Does that mean the Xi family has to give me hundreds of billions of checks to make me leave Xi Zhoumeng?
