Chapter 101 Arts Festival 3
Lin Xiaoqi sat on the piano stool. She pinched her fingers and then gently brushed the black and white keys with her hands.
She reached out and pressed the first key, then paused slightly.
This is the song Wen An Ning wrote for her.
"Qinglan".
A song dedicated to her mother.
Qinglan means summer wind. Wen Anning hopes that her mother can be as warm and free as the summer wind, and also hopes that her mother can always be with her like the summer wind.
Ever since Mingyu taught Wen Anning, Wen Anning's love for music has grown stronger and stronger, and she even invites Lin Xiaoqi to go to Mingyu's house together.
And Mingyu became more and more satisfied with Wen An Ning.
Lin Xiaoqi thought of that quiet woman, and her heart ached: Why do good people always get harmed and let down?
Is it true that only the strong can survive?
As Lin Xiaoqi was thinking this, she had played most of the song without realizing it.
Lin Xiaoqi quickly brought back his wandering soul and began to play seriously.
Zhu Zhu was fascinated by the song unconsciously.
She always felt that there was a story in this song.
Lin Xiaoqi's song ended.
Zhu Zhu finally reacted, but in her heart she refused to admit that it was Lin Xiaoqi's song that attracted her.
She stubbornly believed that she was in a daze.
"Thanks."
Lin Xiaoqi bowed and returned to the backstage.
"How was it?" Lin Xiaoqi looked at Zhu Zhu with a smile on her face, "Who won?"
"Humph, of course it's me!" Zhu Zhu was a competitive person. She would never admit that she was listening attentively just now, let alone admit defeat on her own initiative!
All thirty students finished their performances, and then it was time for the traditional challenge session.
In the past, no one would participate in the challenge session.
However, just when everyone thought that this part would be skipped as usual, Zhu Zhu suddenly raised her hand: "I'll do it!"
The host didn't react.
Zhu Zhu took a step forward and said aggressively: "I want to challenge Lin Xiaoqi!"
The host student stammered, "What do you want to challenge?"
Zhu Zhu saw that classmate stuttering, so she looked at Lin Xiaoqi who looked calm and composed: "Classical dance, do you know how to do it?"
Lin Xiaoqi said with a smile on her face: "Sure, come on."
Everyone in the audience was surprised. Zhu Zhu's dance just now was amazing. It could be said that it greatly overturned their usual impression of Zhu Zhu as being arrogant and domineering.
The music teachers who had a dance background also nodded repeatedly.
However, Su Xuanran, Qin Chenyi and others were not worried at all.
They know that Lin Xiaoqi has not only practiced piano since childhood, but also practiced classical dance since childhood, and she was taught by Mingyu.
Lin Xining's face was full of smiles: This Zhu Zhu kept pestering him all day long. If he didn't let his little sister stun her, what did she really think of herself?
"But." Lin Xiaoqi said with a sad face, "I don't have any clothes."
"I have." Zhu Zhu thought that Lin Xiaoqi was looking for an opportunity to exonerate herself in order to end the challenge, so she spoke quickly.
"Really? I want the stunning dance costume that was limited to only three pieces in the whole city last year, and I want it with water sleeves." Lin Xiaoqi's eyes lit up, and he wanted to take the opportunity to blackmail her.
Jinghong dance costume is the best of classical dance costumes. It is made of silky material and the finest silk, which can make the dancer's dance look more graceful.
Not to mention the stunning dance costumes that are only available in the city.
Zhu Zhu was stunned, obviously she didn't expect Lin Xiaoqi to ask for such a high price!
She did have that stunning dance costume, and she brought it with her, just in case, to make herself more stunning. But she was reluctant to wear it, and she had never worn it herself.
She couldn't suppress the pain in her heart.
But I was the one who challenged them first, and they were not prepared, so I had to sacrifice.
Compared to Lin Xiaoqi's embarrassment later, this is nothing.
Zhu Zhu went backstage to get the blue stunning dance costume and reluctantly handed it to Lin Xiaoqi: "Here, go change. It's time for your performance now."
Lin Xiaoqi smiled slightly: "Okay."
"So, what about the stakes?" Lin Xiaoqi reminded, "As I recall, this traditional challenge requires a stake."
"That's right." The two hosts nodded.
Zhu Zhu sneered: In her heart, she had already won.
Therefore, in her opinion, Lin Xiaoqi's behavior was tantamount to seeking death.
Lin Xiaoqi nodded and said with satisfaction: "I would like to ask everyone present to be a witness. If I lose, I will kneel down and apologize to classmate Zhu Zhu; if I win, then I want this dress."
"How is it, classmate Zhu Zhu?" Lin Xiaoqi looked at Zhu Zhu with a smile on her face.
"Okay." Zhu Zhu agreed readily.
"Then I'll respectfully obey your command." Lin Xiaoqi took the clothes and walked towards the locker room.
Ten minutes later, Lin Xiaoqi had become a typical classical beauty.
Lin Xiaoqi picked up a folding fan from somewhere, held it in his hand with a casual look on his face, and then looked at Zhu Zhu and others with a smile.
This is actually the folding fan that Lin Xiaoqi took out from the space.
A playful smile appeared on her face, and then she said loudly:
"Please wait and see!"
Zhu Zhu and others sat in the audience seats below.
The moment Zhu Zhu sat down, countless questions suddenly popped up in her mind.
Why did she know about this dress? Why was her expression so relaxed?
Zhu Zhu watched Lin Xiaoqi and the staff talking about the name of the song, and her suspicion grew stronger and stronger.
It is accompanied by anxiety.
The lights dimmed.
The music is quiet.
Zhu Zhu looked incredulous, this song is considered a veteran dance in classical dance!
Even the teacher hired by her mother Gao Jin might not be able to do it!
I’m afraid Lin Xiaoqi is not here to scare people!
The lights came on, and a green figure appeared in the center of the stage.
This dance music was taught to her by Mingyu when she was in her second year of high school.
Lin Xiaoqi remembered Mingyu said to her at the time: "Xiaoqi, this dance is one of the last dances I will teach you. This dance is known as the 'king of the unshakable' in the classical dance world. It will be difficult, so I will give you a week to digest it."
After four years of getting along, Mingyu has already understood Lin Xiaoqi's talents and abilities.
She fully believed that Lin Xiaoqi could learn this dance on her own.
Lin Xiaoqi spent three days learning the dance and four days practicing it.
Lin Xiaoqi threw her green sleeves, and they tossed up and down in the air like conscious water currents.
Zhu Zhu's face turned pale: This looks professional no matter how you look at it!
Being able to learn to incorporate the throwing sleeves from Peking Opera into classical dance performances is definitely not an ordinary person.
Lin Xiaoqi's retracting, pulling, brushing and throwing seemed to give the sleeves spirituality, which was breathtaking.
