81. Ask your husband for a dance

"The Asian Cities Championship will officially start in a month and a half."

On the fifth day after the play-in round, Jonathan informed everyone of the news.

“Will that be busy?”

Night, bedroom sofa.

Xia Linxing asked while holding Su Zhi in his arms.

"No, our team has been preparing for these games since last year and we are already fully prepared."

Su Wei tilted her head and looked at him: "So, there won't be any problems with the MV this time."

Xia Linxing smiled: "Okay."

"But there is one thing that I have always been confused about."

Su Zhi simply spun around in his arms and hung on him like a koala.

"Didn't you ask Shen Shiyue to shoot a version of the MV before?"

Su Zhi wondered: "Can we shoot another version and release it at the same time?"

"That version will not be released." Xia Linxing said in a cold tone.

Su Wei blinked: "Huh?"

He reached out and gently scratched the tip of her beautiful nose: "For the final version, yours will be the main one."

"Will this not offend Shen Shiyue?"

Su Wei looked at him steadily: "After all, you two are friends."

They are still good friends who have filmed their first screen film together.

Then the relationship should be very different, right?

And in the last solo match, Shen Shiyue's way of looking at him was obviously very different.

"She and I are not friends."

Xia Linxing said calmly: "He is just a colleague who worked with me in a movie before."

"Besides," Xia Linxing narrowed his eyes and looked at Su Zhi, "It's my MV, the final decision on which version to use is mine, and I paid her for the recording."

His tone was exceptionally cold, almost sounding inhuman.

But the way he looks is actually closer to his usual personality and image in the outside world.

He seems gentle and elegant, but in fact he is cold and indifferent.

"That's right. After all, you are like the boss." Su Wei nodded and muttered.

"Well, if it's not released, can I take a look at it privately?" Su Zhi looked at him expectantly.

She really wanted to know what the style of the MV for the song "Red Lotus" was like.

And, "I heard that you shot the early stages yourself?"

She was also curious about what Xia Linxing was like as a director.

She looked at him with sparkling eyes: "Is it okay, husband?"

Xia Linxing lowered his eyes and looked into her round, cat-like eyes.

After a moment, he turned on his phone and found the rough cut of the "Red Lotus" MV left by the assistant director.

Of course, this version of the MV has since ended as a rough cut and there will be no further sequel.

He put his finger down, and soon, the video started playing.

The picture moves from far to near, showing the vast desert. In the boundless desert, a woman in a red water-sleeved dress is dancing gracefully.

The strong wind swept the sand past, and the girl's skirt looked like a red Lycoris radiata blooming in the monotonous and desolate world, which was particularly eye-catching.

Up to this point, the camera movements and the entire picture are perfect and have a strong sense of story.

Su Zhi couldn't help but become absorbed in it.

But soon, the camera gradually zoomed in.

The girl dancing in the sea of ​​sand finally had her appearance fully revealed in the video.

After a few seconds, Su Zhi frowned slightly.

After a few seconds, she couldn't bear to watch it anymore and reached out to hit the pause button.

"What the hell is this dance!" she complained.

In the Buddhist context, the red lotus is a sacred flower from heaven.

But Shen Shiyue's dance performance was totally devoid of divinity, her charm and allure were so intense that it almost overflowed the screen, and her facial expression management was terrible.

If you don’t know, you might think she was competing for the title of the most beautiful courtesan in an ancient brothel.

No, at least the Oiran's dancing skills wouldn't be that bad.

No wonder Xia Linxing has been delayed in releasing the film and even plans to shoot a second version.

This was a situation that even camera movement, editing, and even post-production special effects couldn't save. He had already given Shen Shiyue enough face by not asking her to leave.

Moreover, to a certain extent, with Xia Linxing's terrifying influence around the world and the reputation of his works being all excellent, the heroine of his MV is no less than the heroine of a big-budget movie.

If it were her, let alone paying Shen Shiyue for the film, it would have ruined her reputation and it would have been considered merciful not to kick her out!

"Don't want to watch it anymore?" Xia Linxing whispered in her ear.

“I don’t want to watch it anymore,” Su Zhi shook her head. “I’m not jealous of her, it’s just that her dancing is really not up to par.”

"But don't worry," Su Wei tilted her head and said confidently, "I'm a great dancer. I've even won some impressive national awards in our world."

“So,” she consoled me, “If you have any requests, just tell me. I will definitely present them perfectly for you and will never let your MV be ruined!”

Xia Linxing narrowed his eyes slightly and noticed the words "our world" in her words at the first moment.

Recently, after her confession, she has mentioned these words more and more frequently.

In fact, even if she didn't confess, he would have guessed it a little.

After all, a person's personality and other aspects would not change so drastically in a short period of time.

But he guessed many possibilities, including the splitting of multiple personalities, but he never thought of soul traveling.

"Mr. Xia, why don't you say anything? Don't you believe me?"

Su Zhi saw that Xia Linxing didn't speak for a long time, and her eyebrows wrinkled slightly.

"not."

Xia Linxing came back to his senses and gently pinched her cheek: "I don't disbelieve you."

On the contrary, he trusted her completely.

From that shocking dance, Xia Linxing was sure that he had found the most suitable heroine for the MV of "Red Lotus".

"Then I'll ask the choreographer to teach you tomorrow?"

Su Zhi nodded, "Okay"

After she finished speaking, she suddenly thought of something, tilted her eyes, and looked at him with a smile: "Honey, can you dance?"

Xia Linxing was stunned by the question.

The dance in the MV of Red Lotus was specially choreographed for women, and it puts a particularly high test on women’s flexibility.

It’s not that he can’t dance, but if those dance moves were performed by a man, Xia Linxing really couldn’t imagine how “beautiful” the scene would be.

"No." He looked at her calmly, his tone indifferent.

Mr. Xia is indeed an international movie star with superb acting skills. Su Zhi could not see any clues from his eyes.

Of course, that is if his earlobes hadn't secretly turned red.

A subtle smile appeared on Su Zhi's lips, and she said "Oh" meaningfully.

"Really not?" She used both her hands to force him down maliciously, staring at him intently.

The slender, porcelain-white ankles swung up in this ferocious posture, and the shackles hanging on them fell off with a crackling sound.

It's very small, but it's very clear in the quiet night.

Xia Linxing chuckled, stood up abruptly, easily grabbed her ankles, changed his posture, and picked her up, letting both of her legs wrap around his waist.

"You already know this, but you're still asking?"

Xia Linxing kissed the end of her beautiful eye helplessly: "Little rascal?"

Su Zhi chuckled.

Unable to suppress her excitement, she started to act like a rogue.

"Honey, can you show me how to dance? Just show me once, okay?"

"I'm very talented. Just show me once and I'll learn it instantly!"

She couldn't help but urge her arms around his neck and legs around his waist to tighten because she was too excited.

"Hubby, please~"

She really wants to see him dance, boohoo~
