Chapter 334
Qijiu twisted and turned on the bed in a frantic manner.
The sheets beneath her were crumpled into a ball as she twisted and turned.
Thinking about it carefully, there's really no chance at all.
Damn it, even if we manage to get Tongtong involved this way...
"Hmm? Wait a minute... that convention didn't seem to have a rule that cosplayers had to be from the cosplay community..."
A flash of inspiration suddenly crossed Qijiu's mind.
Suddenly remembering something, Qijiu hurriedly got out of bed, using both hands and feet.
I picked up the invitation from the exhibitor from the bedside table.
"This exhibition does not restrict attendees to professional cosplayers; anyone who is an ACG (Anime, Comics, and Games) culture enthusiast is welcome."
"Anyone can step onto the stage and compete with renowned cosplayers from all over the world. As long as you love ACG culture, you can be the brightest star at this exhibition."
Who will ultimately win the grand prize? Let's wait and see...
Qijiu didn't continue looking at the promotional slogans written below.
Instead, they focused their attention on the first two lines of the opening statement.
Especially when you see the sentence, "Anyone can step onto the stage and compete with famous cosplayers from all over the world."
A familiar figure suddenly rose up in the depths of her mind.
"Ha ha..."
Clutching the invitation in her hand with excitement, her little hands trembled uncontrollably with nervous anticipation.
Qijiu lowered her head and let out a series of low laughs.
Hahahaha!!!
After double-checking the abbreviations on the invitation.
Qijiu's low chuckle suddenly turned into a confident, maniacal laugh.
"Because in the past, these international exhibitions only restricted professional cosplayers, I overlooked this point at the beginning."
"I didn't expect that this exhibition would have no restrictions at all."
Qijiu suddenly raised her head, her pure black pupils revealing absolute confidence.
Logically, large-scale exhibitions like this should impose some restrictions to prevent disorder at the venue.
After all, there will always be some cosplayers who deliberately sell sex appeal in order to attract attention.
Therefore, exhibitions of this level often refuse participation to non-professional cosplayers and cosplay enthusiasts.
However, this exhibition completely lifted this restriction.
This was a major change that she had not anticipated at all.
"Am I God's favorite?"
Absolute confidence surfaced deep within Qijiu's eyes.
Lifting this restriction may indeed be a gamble for exhibitors.
Because nobody knew what kind of amateur cosplayers would come to participate.
But for her, the removal of this restriction was undoubtedly a blessing from God.
"We won."
Qijiu took a deep breath and smiled slightly.
She already has the best candidate, so it doesn't matter if she doesn't participate.
"I don't lack amateur cosplayers who can rival those world-class cosplayers."
Qijiu picked up the phone that she had previously tossed aside.
She gently touched the screen with her jade-like finger to wake it up and opened the contacts.
Looking at that profile picture, we've been friends since then but haven't contacted each other even once.
Qijiu stared at the somewhat unfamiliar number, stroking her chin as she fell into deep thought.
What reason should she use to lure that brat over as well?
Simply asking the other party for help will definitely not work.
"How about I sacrifice my looks a little?"
"No, no, no, that kid isn't the kind of man who would be swayed by beauty, and he's not short of beauties like me around him."
"Then I should put on a show of feigning distress for him???"
"No, no, that kid is smart, he definitely won't fall for it."
Qijiu bit her lip and frowned slightly.
Tsk, think about it carefully, Qijiu, think quickly, there must be a way.
"What a hassle! I might as well just call this kid over to my house and talk to him face to face!"
Qijiu slapped her palm and suddenly sat up in bed.
As a result of exerting too much force, I felt dizzy and nauseous.
"Ugh... I think I'll wait until my cold gets a little better before calling him to discuss it..."
Qijiu covered her forehead and said with a black line on her face.
Let's wait a few days and see...
Chapter 55: Ye Luotong's Wavering
"Mesopotamian civilization is the ancient Greece term for the civilization created by the Sumerians."
"And the city of Uruk was born from it, and Uruk's most infamous tyrant..."
Ye Luotong's voice stopped abruptly.
Silently watching the city-states and patterns displayed on the projector.
Finally, my gaze fell on the phone placed on the side of the table.
What she just said seems a bit too much; Qijiu is still suffering from a cold.
Moreover, the other party had just twisted their ankle a few days ago, so it was too childish for her to confront Qijiu like that.
Moreover, Qijiu didn't mean to mock her; the other party was simply stating the facts.
Indeed, she voluntarily abandoned her dream and the promise she made to Qijiu.
Qijiu wanted her to participate in this International Exhibition.
It's because the other person still remembers the promise they made together, and also remembers her wish from back then.
The invitation was extended to her simply because an opportunity to fulfill her dream had now presented itself.
Qijiu did nothing wrong; the other person was just concerned about her and worried about her.
As a result, she not only forgot her promise, but also just hurt Qijiu's heart deeply.
"Damn it, what was I thinking...?"
Ye Luotong placed her hands on the desk and lowered her head.
Qijiu's starting point was actually just to fulfill her wish.
However, she foolishly thought that Qijiu was deliberately provoking her.
In essence, she is the one who is wrong in this matter, and she has no right to argue with Qijiu.
It's even more inappropriate to yell at Qijiu when she has a cold or is injured.
"I need to go apologize to Qijiu."
Ye Luotong stared at the phone that was still on the table with a complicated expression.
She needs to apologize to Qijiu properly; she shouldn't have responded to her like that.
The other person was simply concerned about her and wanted to ask for her opinion.
"My emotions have been so unstable lately, what's wrong with me?"
Ye Luotong had to admit that her emotions had indeed been very unstable lately.
Sometimes I feel irritable, sometimes I feel worried, sometimes I feel depressed, and sometimes I feel excited.
Sometimes her heart would beat especially fast, so fast it felt like it could jump out of her chest.
This left Ye Luotong feeling extremely puzzled and anxious.
What could be the reason that her emotions have become so unstable lately?
"Teacher Ye? Are you feeling unwell?"
A male student sitting at the front raised his hand and asked a question.
Teacher Ye has been staring blankly like this for quite some time.
The other person doesn't look well either. Is something wrong with them?
"It's really rare to see Teacher Ye daydreaming in class..."
"That's right, and Teacher Ye does seem to space out easily lately."
"It might be because you're not feeling well. Are you too tired?"
The other students also whispered among themselves after witnessing the scene.
If it were the old Teacher Ye, he would never have been daydreaming during class.
Teacher Ye has always been very serious about the classroom and students.
Furthermore, she is very demanding of herself, and Teacher Ye rarely loses her composure in class or in front of her students.
But recently, it seems that Teacher Ye has something on her mind that she can't let go of.
He always seemed a little strange, and also a bit anxious.
"I'm sorry to have worried you all. I'm fine. I just suddenly remembered something."
"Alright, teacher, everything's fine here now. Let's look at this magnificent building that resembles a triangular tower again."
"This is the royal tower of the successive kings of Uruk, praised by the people of Uruk as the throne of wise kings..."
Ye Luotong shook her head vigorously to clear her mind of distracting thoughts.
Forget it, I shouldn't think about those messy things now.
I'll think about this recent emotional fluctuation later.
As for Qijiu's matter, she can apologize to Qijiu after school today.
If all else fails, she can simply buy Qijiu some good wine as compensation.
"..."
Wu Liang frowned as he looked at Ye Luotong's strange behavior.
In his memory, Ye Luotong had always been a very serious and dignified teacher.
Especially in class, the other person will never be distracted, let alone space out for no reason.
He could understand if it was just an occasional occurrence, but Ye Luotong's recent behavior had been very strange.
He was restless all day long; even a simple greeting from him could frighten the other person.
There's clearly something wrong here.
"Hmm... we... we'll see next... the civilization of wearing simple clothes..."
Upon feeling Wu Liang's gaze, Ye Luotong immediately began to stammer.
My tongue curled up involuntarily, and even my speech became very strange.
