Chapter 279 Princess and Prince
“Uh—?”
Hearing Xia Yu's unique insight, Xiaoying exclaimed, and suddenly realized that what Xia said made a lot of sense.
Indeed, at the end of the story of Sleeping Beauty, the prince has to kiss the princess to wake her up.
No matter who plays the prince, it seems that he has to kiss the princess.
"What are you talking about? The drama you're going to perform this time?"
At this time, Li Meiling, who had just written her name, also came down. She looked over curiously and said, "I remember the story of Sleeping Beauty, which is about a prince kissing a sleeping princess to wake her up."
Sakura heard this and nodded and replied, "Yeah, we were just talking about how the prince seemed to be kissing the princess at the end."
"That's great. So if I were a princess and Xiaolang was a prince..." As she spoke, Li Meiling couldn't help but cover her face with her hands and fell into shy fantasy.
Li Xiaolang in the lower left corner looked at Li Meiling's shy appearance and said helplessly: "I don't want to play the role of a prince."
"Yes, yes, because you are a princess."
Seeing that Li Xiaolang didn't care about the prince's role at all, Xia Yu next to him chuckled and said to Li Xiaolang with a wink.
"What nonsense are you talking about again!"
Li Xiaolang glared at Xia Yu unhappily. If she doesn’t want to play the role of a prince, then she has to say she is a princess. What kind of weird logic is this?
"You'll know whether it's nonsense or not later, hehe~"
Just after Xia Yu finished speaking, Guan Yue Gefan also tore off the sticker above the ghost foot picture, revealing the covered character.
Because the protagonists of this story are the princess and the prince, she first looked at the names below these two characters.
"Let me see, the princess and the prince..."
Hearing that the teacher was about to announce the students who would play the roles of the prince and princess, the whole class immediately looked over in anticipation. Even Li Xiaolang, who didn't care much, perked up a little.
"Oh, the princess and the prince are Li Syaoran-san and Kinomoto-san."
"what?"
"Huh?"
Hearing these two names, Li Syaoran and Xiaoying stood up in surprise at the same time, looked at the ghost foot picture, and then saw their own names below the princess and the prince.
"I'm a princess!?"
"I'm a prince!?"
Li Syaoran and Sakura shouted in surprise at the same time. It was slightly different from what they had imagined. The actor who played the princess was Li Syaoran, and the actor who played the prince was Sakura.
Looking at this interesting result, Zhishi turned his head and looked at Xia Yu with a smile and said, "It's exactly the same as what Xia Yu guessed. Did Xia Yu already know the answer?"
"It's just a guess. I need to know where the character is and my name will appear under the fairy?"
Xia Yu supported his face with one hand and looked at his name on the ghost foot picture. The character he drew was the fairy who blessed the princess in the original book. Obviously, he wanted to try to be a bad witch.
After all, the bad witch is the only villain in the play, but even in the acting, he is on the side of the good guys.
As expected, he is a sunny and cheerful boy and is destined not to be a bad person.
"Haha~ Fairy?"
Seeing Xia Yu's name appear under the fairy who blessed the princess, Zhishi imagined the scene of Xia Yu wearing a skirt and couldn't help laughing.
"I will be looking forward to Xia's performance. Unfortunately, there seems to be more than one fairy. So I can't make a nice fairy costume for Xia alone."
"Ahem, forget about this..."
Xia Yu coughed lightly and waved his hand. Although he would not feel ashamed of wearing women's clothes, he thought that Zhishi had made a piece of women's clothes for him personally, so he decided to forget it. Let Li Xiaolang wear the beautiful little skirt, and he would keep a good record of it.
"Huh? Wait, why would I be a bad witch?!"
At this time, Li Meiling also found her role according to her name, and her name happened to correspond to the only villain in the play, the evil witch.
"Don't underestimate yourself."
After hearing Li Meiling's words, Xia Yu, who was feeling sorry for the fact that his character was a fairy, stopped worrying about it. He turned to look at Li Meiling and smiled.
"With your laughter, you are more than qualified to be a bad witch. You are a natural at playing villains."
"What!?"
Hearing Xia Yu's words, which seemed to be a compliment or a joke, Li Meiling puffed up her cheeks angrily and said, "What do you mean by that? Do I look like a bad guy?"
"No, no, no, I didn't say that. I meant that your laugh sounds like a bad witch. After all, what fairy would laugh so loudly?"
Li Meiling was even more dissatisfied with this. She directly retorted: "Your laughter is not much better. Which fairy would laugh like that?"
"There's nothing you can do if you don't agree. This is decided by drawing lots."
Seeing that Li Meiling found a rebuttal point so quickly, Xia Yu simply used his ultimate move. After all, drawing lots usually depends on luck.
"hateful……"
Li Meiling turned her head away in dissatisfaction. She really couldn't refute this because she was the one who drew the witch.
But still angry.
She accepted the role, but she just refused to accept it.
Soon, as the teacher announced the roles that each student would play one by one, the students also learned the roles they would play.
In addition to the main princess and prince, there are also fairies, kings, queens, soldier A, monster B, passerby D and other characters.
Although none of them are important roles, it is a performance by the whole class after all, so except for Tomoyo who is the narrator, almost everyone else has to show their faces.
After the roles for the performance were completely decided, Guan Yue Gefan talked about some more things until the school bell rang and they left school.
Because she was a little overwhelmed by the sudden drawing of the role of the prince, Sakura directly invited Tomoyo and Xia Yu who were traveling with her to her house to discuss the matter.
What's more, Li Syaoran is playing the role of a princess, which makes Sakura even more nervous.
Not long after, the Kinomoto family.
Sakura's room.
"What? Sakura, you're going to play the prince?"
Xiaoke sat on the bed and looked at Sakura in surprise. He knew that there would be a cultural performance in Sakura's class because Sakura had told him about it yesterday.
But I didn't expect that the event that was finally confirmed would be a drama, and Sakura would not be playing an ordinary role, but an important prince.
Faced with Xiaoke's surprise, Xiaoying couldn't help but cover her face in shyness. She never expected that classmate Xia's words would come true, and the role she played would actually be a prince.
"That will definitely be a very cute prince." Tomoyo said with sparkling eyes, as if she had already imagined what Sakura would look like in prince's costume.
"And I asked the teacher to volunteer to be in charge of preparing the costumes. I'm really looking forward to it. Are you too, Xia?"
"Yes."
Xia Yu nodded and looked at Xiaoying and said affirmatively: "This is the conclusion of the protagonist. The protagonist will definitely play the protagonist. Xiaoying, I am looking forward to your performance."
