"You are Bai Yi Yang right?" Bai Yi Yang was preparing to leave when Romeo come to her with a big smile.
"Yes, hello senior." Bai Yi Yang nod. This Senior Yu BoQin is a famous school hunk. He is in Grade 11, playing the role of Romeo in their play.
"I am Song Zheng Sheng's friend, nice to meet you." Yu BoQin smile widened.
"Yes, nice to meet you too." Bai Yi Yang said. Well, is it necessary to mention Song Zheng Sheng all the time?
"Say Senior Hua, I still don't have my Rosaline right? Just let Junior Bai Yi Yang take the role." Yu BoQin call out to Hua Chang Ying who is talking with some actress now.
"Wait for a while, I will come over." Hua Chang Ying said without looking at them.
"See, how do you think Zheng Sheng will react when he know about this?" Yu BoQin grinned at Bai Yi Yang.
"Senior, I don't know how to act." Bai Yi Yang said. She really don't want to het involved doing drama or whatever ah. She just want to run away from this club activities now.
"No problem, Rosaline role is easy, you just need to smile and look all pretty, there is not much lines. With your face, even if your forgot your line, there is no problem." Yu BoQin add. Bai Yi Yang face palm, this boy is really.
"What did you say just now?" Hua Chang Ying finally come to them. She look at Bai Yi Yang from head to toe. En, quite pretty. That's what she thought
"Who are you? Why didn't I see you before?" Hua Chang Ying would have approached her early on if she knows that there is a pretty face in their club. Acting skills, that can be evaluated later. This junior looks pretty so it already passed the first round, where did she come from?
"Hello Senior Hua, my name is Bai Yi Yang." Bai Yi Yang said. This Hua Chang Yin really look a bit scary, what more with the constant frowning face.
"Are you in any team? Do you want to try reading Rosaline line?" Hua Chang Ying said. Rosaline is a pretty girl, but her character's line is not much, so even beginner who only have the face can play Rosaline role.
"Senior Hua, it's like this. I am active in other club activities, so I don't want to audition for this role since I may not be able to join the practice. I am not assigned to any team too. How about this, let me join the Props team or Costume team, I can do well in that." Bai Yi Yang said. She really don't want to act.
"The two teams usually have a lot of helper. You sure you don't want to play Rosaline?" Hua Chang Ying also find it a pity, why waste a pretty face to the Props team.
"Yes, I can do well in Props team, I know some carpentry. As for acting, I just don't want to ruin the drama.." Bai Yi Yang smile awkwardly.
"Hurm..alright. Go and talk to D.D., she can arrange something for you. If they have enough people, then come to me again, try playing Rosaline then. Each club member must be in a team." Hua Chang Ying said before pulling Yu BoQin away to practice. Yu BoQin can only wave goodbye at Bai Yi Yang even though he still wanted to talk.
"Junior Bai..think about it again..playing Rosaline can make you famous in school ah.." Yu BoQin said. Bai Yi Yang smile at him and ignore his words before going to the Props team.
"Hello, Senior Hua told me to talk to D.D. and apply for Props team." Bai Yi Yang cannot escape this hole now, so she can only choose to do an easier job.
"I am D.D. Chang Ying told you to come over? Do you know how to do props?" D.D is a girl with a ponytail and wearing spectacles. The people in this team looks very peaceful and quiet, unlike the chaotic actors and actress at the performance team gathering in front.
"I know what to do as long as you give me the instruction. I can do carpentry too, making furniture and all other stuff." Bai Yi Yang said confidently.
"Really?" The boy sitting next to D.D ask. He looks a bit soft and his voice is a bit high pitched. He look at Bai Yi Yang with scrutiny.
"Yes. These are my work." Bai Yi Yang as she took out her phone and show them Cookie and Oreo's house. Why is she trying this hard? Isn't this because she don't want to be rejected and thrown back into the performance team.
"You build this? Really ah? Not bought?" The same boy look at the picture closely and still doesn't believe. This person name tag read Shai Ming.
"Senior Shai, I really made it. Why don't you let me join your discussion, see if I can give suggestion and so on." Bai Yi Yang said.
"Alright, take a seat." D.D make the decision. In the props team, there are more than 10 people, but the main contributors are D.D, Shai Ming, Xiao Jia who is from Zhang Ming Ming's class, Wu Zhou and Xing Xing from Grade 11. The rest just listen to instructions. Since Bai Yi Yang wanted to be a member of the props team, she also become active in giving suggestions.
"The problem is that we need to compete for the workshop with the other team too, this always happens every year." D.D sigh. Since they are using the school's workshop, at most they only have a few hours during Saturday to do their props. It has always been a headache to her.
"I have a workshop at my house. The props that we already list down can be done in my workshop." Bai Yi Yang raise her hand.
"You have a workshop? How about the tools? We need a few woodworking tools to do this too." D.D ask.
"I have. Looking at the list of props, we can do it at my workshop. It's just that we need transportation to bring all of these to school later." Bai Yi Yang said.
"That's a bit risky if we can't do it at your place. How about this, we divide into two teams, one team will do it at the school workshop like the schedule, while the other team will go to Junior Bai house." D.D decided. This Bai Yi Yang doesn't seems to be lying and talking big.
"Alright." The team member agree.
After that, they list down all the things that they need to make the props. Plywood, woods, glue, paint and so on.
"These materials, I can help order it from the hardware store from town." Bai Yi Yang said as she see the list of materials.
"You can? Then I will trouble you." D.D said, she usually put a few people in charge of purchasing the items. Preferably someone who can easily go to the town to purchase this things. It is also better if someone knows what he/she is doing and where to buy this stuff.
Bai Yi Yang nod, snap the list and send it to the hardware shop's boss.
"Done." Bai Yi Yang smile and show the receipt to D.D.
The team member jaw dropped when they saw the confirmation message and also the receipt with all the things that they need. What more, the boss even give discount on some of the items. School clubs are usually given budget every year by the school, there is also the membership fee as part of the school fee payed by the students. All this money will be used in time like this. School only let them use the workshop but they need to buy the materials themselves. They are not children, these things, they can do it themselves.
"Ah, ignore the wood paints at the bottom. That's for me." Bai Yi Yang grinned.
"Welcome, welcome. Welcome to our team." The props team welcome her now after seeing that she do her job very fast.
"Should I ask them to deliver it at my house or other place?" Bai Yi Yang ask.
"They even deliver to your house?" Wu Zhou has joined to purchase things from the same hardware shop before, but they still need to find their own transport.
"Yes, I am a regular there." Bai Yi Yang said.
"Just deliver at your house. My brother have a truck, the transportation, I will arrange it." D.D. said.
"Junior Bai, send the receipt to me, I will give it to the club treasurer." D.D said and tick their task for today.
"We are done for now." She said to the 10 or so members.
"Ah, we are done so fast today. I feel really idle." XingXing said as he stretch.
"We will have a lot of things to do on Saturday. You and Xiao Jia will lead the other at the school workshop. Our team turn is from 10.00 am to 12.00 pm." D.D said to XingXing.
"Then I will trouble older cousin." XingXing said. Bai Yi Yang secretly listen to their conversation and conclude that D.D and XingXing are cousin. The one who will hell them with transportation is D.D's older brother who owns the truck.
"I see you are doing well here." Hua ChangYing come over and pat Bai Yi Yang shoulder.
"Oh, Chang Ying. I will add Junior Bai to our team. We also finished making order for the props material, I will send it go you and the treasurer later." D.D said.
"So fast?" Hua Chang Ying know that the props team also do a lot of job. Not only the performance team that need to come on Saturday, the props team also need to come to do their work at the school's workshop.
"Junior Bai arranged it. Thanks to you for sending her to our team." D.D said with a smile. Hua Chang Ying send Bai Yi Yang to the team because she knows that the props team doesn't need more people, who knows that she fit in just fine.
"Alright, then go ahead with your discussion. We still miss a few characters, I need to find someone outside the club." Hua Chang Ying said.
"Okay, you go." D.D said.
After that, the props team just chat around among themselves. After Bai Yi Yang showed her ability, they become interested with Bai Yi Yang and ask a few questions. Such as where is her house ah, which class she is, what other club did she joined?
"Qinfang Village. It's just next to my village." A girl said.
"You are Zhang Ming Ming's rich friend right?" Xiao Jia whisper to her. Bai Yi Yang cough when she heard this.
"I am Zhang Ming Ming's friend but I am not rich." Bai Yi Yang reply.
"Zhang Ming Ming always brag about the gifts you give to her. I also heard a bit about it." Xiao Jia said.
"Really? Zhang Ming Ming is just exaggerating. Don't listen to her." Bai Yi Yang said.
"Senior D.D. I also want to follow you to Bai Yi Yang house. Can I?" Xiao Jia is in charge of doing work at the school workshop but she is just so curious if Bai Yi Yang is really rich or not. She doesn't believe Bai Yi Yang.
"Okay, someone wanted to exchange with Xiao Jia?" D.D ask the people in her team that will go to Bai Yi Yang house.
"Me. Senior, I can't stay until the evening. I must return in the afternoon." The student said. D.D said just now that the people who work at school can return home immediately, but the one at Bai Yi Yang's house may need to stay until the evening.
"I also wanted to exchange." Another one from D.D team raise his hand.
"Alright, I will join D.D team." Shai Ming glare at that person and volunteer to work more.
"Remember, since you will be working in the morning only, then next week you also need to come to the school workshop again. The one in my team will be free next weekend." D.D said. The team members agree, this is only fair.
Bai Yi Yang told D.D that she won't be in next week because of the Olympiad competition, so that's why D.D decided that they will do work from morning to evening. Bai Yi Yang think that they are exaggerating, the list of props is not that much, they can finish it in one full day ah. At least for the veranda, wedding altar and the other wood structure, Bai Yi Yang can finish it in one morning.
'Host ah, please don't judge this poor children with your standard ah.' TongTong said. How can it be the same. The Host ability is too amazing compared to normal people ah.
'Okay, okay.' Bai Yi Yang grin and didn't say anything anymore.
