Seeing that Lan You didn't say anything, Mi Tanhua followed Lan You's gaze and landed on the stage.
The light shone softly on Chu Xinrou. In the corner was her usual orchestra. The music started playing, melodious and long with a slow rhythm. Everyone seemed to be frozen in place by magic, immersed in the stage.
She was wearing a white dance dress, her neck slightly raised, her eyes facing the light, and her slender neck was as beautiful as a white swan.
As the slow music played, she stretched out her slender arms, like a bird flapping its wings to fly, which perfectly demonstrated her perfect figure: long, white arms, long legs as slender as chopsticks, and slender hands and feet that could be held in one hand.
Everyone was stunned.
The more exciting part came immediately. She spun on her feet and her skirt spun with her. The rhythm was like a whip. Her light dance posture, tenacious endurance and perfect skills presented an amazing scene.
"Ahhh.....it's amazing. It's definitely worth the trip."
"Chu Xinrou's dance is breathtaking. I can't get enough of it."
"How could someone in this world dance Swan Lake so beautifully? She's as pure and beautiful as a real white swan. Waiting for over three hours was truly worth it."
Lu Wanying had never watched her dance Swan Lake so formally before. She didn't expect that her skills had improved a lot. She became even more worried about Lan You.
After the white swan finished its dance, the music rhythm quickened and Chu Xinrou's movements became faster. She danced a short black swan dance, but it was not as stunning as the white swan. She finished the dance quickly and there was deafening applause from the audience.
After Lan You finished reading, he glanced at the seats of Class 1 and 2 of Senior High School below the stage. After searching for a long time, he finally found Mo Junyao in a remote corner.
"He's here? When did he come?" She had just thought so in her heart when Mo Junyao suddenly looked at her. Lan You was inexplicably panicked for a moment.
After all, this body would still be a little nervous in order to compete with the real Chu Xinrou.
She couldn't deny that Chu Xinrou's White Swan was indeed hard to surpass, but the Black Swan was obviously far behind.
"After watching such a wonderful ballet Swan Lake, our evening party is coming to an end. Next, Mi Tanhua and Lan You will perform the final program, the dance 'Swan Lake'."
There was confusion in the audience. "Isn't Chu Xinrou supposed to be the finale? Why is there another performance? And it's Swan Lake? Do you really think anyone can dance Swan Lake?"
"Exactly. Isn't this a waste of our time? I don't want to watch it anymore. I want to leave."
"If you leave, won't you give Chu Xinrou a bouquet of flowers to celebrate her getting the highest score?"
"That's true, but I really, really can't stand it. Chu Xinrou's Swan Lake is unmatched, so if you want to see something, you should definitely watch the best. Mi Epiphyllum, I heard her dancing is okay, but this Lan You? It's said that this country girl who just came here not long ago, dancing Swan Lake? Does she have the temperament? She can only do a funny clown duck dance."
There were laughters coming from all around, and Lu Wanying, with a worried look on her face, stared at the boys with a stern gaze.
"What are you looking at? Haven't you seen a handsome guy before?" one of the boys yelled at her.
"I have indeed never seen a handsome guy who is blind, has a foul mouth and looks like a toad." Lu Wanying deliberately emphasized the word "handsome guy".
"You little bitch, look at me..." The boy was so angry that he made a fist gesture.
Lu Wanying pretended to be scared and began to say, "The students from Qinghe High School are going to beat people up. This is terrible."
Qinghe High School is a well-known aristocratic school with good family background, good academic performance, and no bad practices reported.
There were a few people from other schools around who looked over with surprise. For the sake of their own and Qinghe's face, those boys did not bother with Lu Wanying.
As soon as Lan You and Mi Tanhua came on stage, they encountered resistance from the audience.
"Didn't they perform Swan Lake? I don't want to watch it anymore. If you have any sense, please leave the stage."
"That makes sense, and it will save everyone's time."
"Step down, step down, step down, step down..."
The teachers didn't know how to deal with the audience's noise. After all, they had said when the program was submitted that repetitions were not allowed. But Chu Xinrou's program was confidential after all, and no one knew what she was dancing.
The judges looked embarrassed, and no matter how they handled it, it would be unfair.
Mo Junyao, who had arrived at some point, looked up and stared at Lan You, who was surrounded by mocking and contemptuous eyes.
Mi Tanhua stood on the stage, listening to the audience's words, her body tense and her face filled with embarrassment. "Lan You, otherwise... let's... get off the stage."
Although it is inevitable to be laughed at and ridiculed, it is better than being laughed at after the dance.
"Now that we're on stage, there's no reason to retreat." Lan You looked at Mo Junyao and answered Mi Tanhua.
She glanced around the audience. The situation remained deadlocked and there was no way out.
She took the microphone and began to speak clearly, "First of all, I'm very sorry for this awkward situation. It's not good for my classmates, the teacher, and even us. Logically, there shouldn't be duplicate performances, but my partner Mi Tanhua and I didn't know Chu Xinrou was going to dance Swan Lake beforehand, and no one, including Chu Xinrou herself, told us."
"Lan You, are you blaming Chu Xinrou for not informing you? How can you be so shameless? Everyone knows that this is Chu Xinrou's best dance. You made such a gimmick to attract attention, but you didn't expect to get yourself killed." Chu Xinrou's fan and male classmate quickly stood up and refuted.
Lan You's face was serious. "Student, are you really speaking for Chu Xinrou? Your words seem to imply that dancing Swan Lake is Chu Xinrou's exclusive right. Does that mean I, the teacher, and no one else besides Chu Xinrou are qualified to dance Swan Lake?"
"Also, I don't blame Chu Xinrou. On the contrary, I want to thank her for respecting the choice of my partner and me. She knew we were going to dance Swan Lake, but she never threatened to change our program. However, the audience was really looking forward to her dancing Swan Lake, so this led to the repetition of the program. I hope the audience and teachers can understand Chu Xinrou's feelings. Of course, my partner and I will never let her down by giving us the opportunity to show ourselves."
"Before the show officially begins, I want to say that even if I don't do well enough, the one who dares to challenge himself is the best."
Lan You's heartfelt words made countless people think deeply.
The judges were moved by her bravery;
Chu Xinrou's fans, classmates, and friends were shocked by her gratitude;
An Yuexi was moved and introspective;
Lu Wanying had mixed feelings;
Chu Xinrou behind the stage was bewildered;
Mo Junyao's eyes were deep, like the bottom of an unfathomable well;
Mi Tanhua on the stage gradually regained her confidence, her tense body gradually relaxed, and she smiled at Lan You.
