The call connected, and a lively voice came from the other end.
“Master!”
“Ugh…”
Adele was glad she didn’t put the call on speakerphone, otherwise, Celeste’s cheerful greeting, full of “wagging tail puppy” energy, would have made Adele die of embarrassment on the spot.
Passersby would probably misunderstand and think, “This girl looks innocent on the surface, but she’s actually playing it big behind the scenes.”
But in reality, Adele was playing it even bigger than they thought.
“Idiot, be mindful of your surroundings. Just tell me what’s up, class is about to start.”
Adele covered the microphone and lowered her voice.
“Y-yes! Master, I got the concert tickets, so I wanted to tell you the good news as soon as possible.”
“Ah, about that.”
“…What’s wrong, Master? Are you not happy?”
“No, it’s just… a bit of a coincidence.”
But it was also normal, maybe Celeste and Tang Linlang hired the same scalper, and the scalper immediately informed his clients, Celeste and Tang Linlang, as soon as he got the tickets.
“Ahem, anyway, thank you for your hard work, Celeste. You’re great~”
“It’s my duty, Master.”
“Did you get two tickets?”
“Yes, two. But if you need the other one, Master…”
Celeste’s voice was unusually low when she said this.
“I can give it to you, Master. As long as you have fun…”
“Silly girl, I was worried that you didn’t get a ticket!”
As expected, Celeste was gently scolded by Adele over the phone.
But her heart was filled with sweetness.
“Keep the tickets for now, I’m hanging up.”
“O-okay, goodbye, Master!”
“Beep, beep—” The sound of the call ending came.
Adele’s decisive behavior also seemed very cool in Celeste’s eyes.
It could only be said that “beauty is in the eye of the beholder.”
But after hanging up the phone, it was Adele who was troubled by having too many concert tickets.
“This is troublesome, I have an extra ticket, who should I give it to?”
Of course, she muttered this to herself with her back to Tang Linlang, so the latter didn’t notice.
Speaking of the concert, Adele suddenly remembered, hadn’t she left her personal information with the student council?
Did she pass their task or not?
If she passed, then she wouldn’t even need a ticket, she could directly enter the concert backstage and be a concert security guard, eating bear-shaped cookies.
Thinking of this, Adele checked if she had any missed calls, and as expected, she found nothing.
But when she checked her unread messages, she actually found a very inconspicuous message among the countless spam messages.
—“Congratulations, Adele, you have passed the task requirements. Please come to the student council office before 7 pm on Friday to complete the registration.”
“It actually worked!”
Adele couldn’t help but exclaim.
Hearing this, Tang Linlang asked curiously,
“What’s wrong, Adele?”
“…It’s about the student council admission list we went to see last time. Do you remember the task I applied for?”
“Yes, I remember, it was about maintaining order at the concert venue… something like a plainclothes enforcer.”
“Pretty much, anyway, it’s about managing those vampire students at the concert, it wouldn’t be good if those with abilities lost control.”
“And my application passed the student council’s review!”
“In other words, Linlang, I might be able to enter the concert venue without even needing your ticket.”
“Really? That’s great!”
Although this made her preparation of two tickets seem a bit redundant, Tang Linlang was optimistic and always believed that as long as the final result was good, the twists and turns along the way didn’t matter.
Some of them might even become cherished memories in the future.
Adele nodded and then happily discussed with Tang Linlang about going to the concert on Sunday evening while walking back to the classroom.
Speaking of which, wasn’t the time of this idol Cha Keke’s concert a bit early?
The tickets also seemed to be released early.
Was she in such a hurry to say goodbye to her idol life? It was a little hard to understand.
But maybe being an idol wasn’t as glamorous as ordinary people imagined. Anyway, after earning enough money, retiring early and enjoying life was a very comfortable decision.
Adele had also thought about it before, she was so good-looking, maybe she could debut as an idol.
But if Adele were to become an idol, she probably wouldn’t be the kind of idol who was good at pleasing fans.
Instead, she would be the type who would say, “Love me or leave me.”
Her fans… would probably become loyal dog fans like Celeste under her tyranny??
It was a kind of “purification,” so to speak.
Time flew by during class, and soon it was evening.
Adele bid farewell to Tang Linlang and slowly walked towards the student council office building alone.
Anyway, the message said to be there before 7 pm, she could rest assured that she wouldn’t be late.
And she thought it was great to be a security guard. She could stroll around, hang out with Tang Linlang for a while, then go to Celeste’s side and pet her golden hair.
Thinking of this, Adele couldn’t help but quicken her pace.
She finally arrived at the student council’s task approval office. Before entering, she first checked if Wen Weiran was there.
She was still a bit afraid of being targeted by someone so powerful, it made her feel insecure.
Adele liked to pick on soft targets. When she encountered tough opponents, she could only swallow her pride and back down.
This was the survival rule of a bully who was afraid of the strong.
Fortunately, there was only a long-haired senior sitting at her desk, looking at the computer screen. She noticed Adele’s presence and smiled and waved at her politely.
The thought “What a beautiful junior” flashed through her mind.
And she looked a little familiar…
She would soon recognize Adele, who had recently become famous in the school.
Whether it was the academy’s newspaper or the posts on the forum, there had been a lot of discussions about Adele and things related to her recently.
But a mysterious force made the good content stay and the bad content disappear.
It was said that someone was even threatened and intimidated for criticizing Adele online.
Although this method wasn’t encouraged, it seemed that only villains could deal with other villains.
Some people guessed based on various clues that it might be related to the vampire organization in the academy, the Black Feather Society.
But what they couldn’t understand was that Edith, the president of the Black Feather Society, did have the intention of recruiting Adele before, she even treated Adele with courtesy and visited her three times.
But Adele didn’t join the Black Feather Society.
Since that was the case, why would Edith continue to stand up for a girl who couldn’t be used by her?
This was truly a perplexing mystery.
At the same time, Adele didn’t pay any attention to this news at all. Because she was very famous recently, and the trouble that came with fame was that she could see news about herself everywhere.
Some people, when encountering this situation, would frantically refresh their phones, not missing a single piece of news about themselves, feeling happy and excited, or depressed because of it.
But Adele was the type who would directly bury her head in the sand like an ostrich, treating all of this as non-existent and living her life normally!
This saved her a lot of trouble.
It also resulted in Edith’s actions never reaching Adele’s ears.
But perhaps, Edith also didn’t want Adele to find out that she was silently doing these things behind her back.
She just wanted to be good to Adele, without asking for anything in return, and without needing a reason.
Back to the student council office, after seeing the senior’s smile, Adele shyly walked into the office.
“Hello, senior, I’m a first-year student here to accept the task, my name is Adele.”
“Adele? You’re the one… ah, I finally get to see you in person, you’re even more beautiful than in the pictures!”
Fortunately, the senior on duty in the office today was clearly a dove in the student council. They appreciated outstanding vampires and especially loved the looks of beautiful vampire girls.
Perhaps they even shipped Adele with those superior Sequence Ones in private, and in most cases, Adele was the submissive one.
It was fortunate that Adele didn’t know this, otherwise, she would really puff out her cheeks in anger. She was clearly super dominant, okay!
Faced with the senior’s recognition, Adele smiled shyly.
“Senior, don’t tease me.”
“I’m not teasing you, junior, you’re really cute! If you don’t mind, can I add you as a friend?”
“I won’t bother you, I just want to show off to my friends~”
“Eh… o-okay.”
Adele felt a little strange.
She wondered if she had encountered a strange senior.
But fortunately, this student council member was only a little eccentric in this aspect, she was very serious and responsible in everything else.
Adele successfully registered and accepted the task. As long as she arrived at the designated meeting place before the concert started on that day, there would be dedicated staff to lead them into the concert venue.
She could watch the concert and get paid, how wonderful.
At least for Adele, this was a position she had earned with her own strength, and the sense of accomplishment was far greater than receiving a ticket from someone else.
She had to tell Tang Linlang and Celeste about this as soon as possible.
That way, they wouldn’t waste the extra ticket.
The price of concert tickets should have already been jacked up to a terrifying number by now.
So she had to urge them to sell one of the tickets to get their money back.
After all… Tang Linlang and Celeste were her people, so their money was basically her money!
It was better to save money whenever possible.
