Luo Jiu: ...
After listening, there was a moment of silence. Speechless, the original owner wondered what kind of luck she had. Was it all because of her beauty?
"Lolo, why aren't you ready yet? The boss is urging us."
A clear, melodious female voice came from behind the mirror. Before Luo Jiu could react and see her face clearly, she was led out by the hand.
The black and red cheongsam accentuated the woman's shapely figure, neither too thin nor too plump, but just right.
Luo Jiu staggered as she followed the girl in the white gauze dress toward the dark, dimly lit passageway.
[Master, the person before you is the female lead, Shi Zixi. Commander Shi's youngest daughter, she ran away and is temporarily working as a dancer at a dance hall. She and the original owner are known as the "Delhi Twin Flowers," and she is the original owner's best friend. You are currently on your way to the stage, preparing for an important performance.]
-Well...I don't know how...
[Wait... Ding! Skill fusion in progress... Ding! Skill fusion successful! Personality fusion in progress... Ding! Personality fusion successful.]
Luo Jiu was led to a red curtain in front of a black microphone. When the curtain rose, she was in the center of the stage.
Shi Zixi, dressed in a white gauze dress, stood in the left corner of the curtain, looking at her with a puzzled expression.
Luo Jiu was absorbing the original owner's memories. After a moment, her eyes cleared, and she raised her hand to gesture to the orchestra behind the scenes.
A clear and melodious voice, like heavenly music, emanated from behind the curtain, causing the guests who were chatting and laughing in their chairs to pause and look towards the stage.
The curtain slowly rose, and a soft beam of light shone down from above the head of a woman dressed in a red and black cheongsam. The woman had her eyes closed, and soft, melodious Wu dialect, typical of women from Jiangnan, flowed from her mouth. Her slender, delicate hands appeared even whiter under the light.
It began with a woman singing a cappella, accompanied by the deep sound of a cello. Then, a beam of light shone on the edge of the stage, and a young girl in a white gauze dress danced to the lively rhythm of the music.
This was a very simple performance, with a singer, a dancer, and a few simple Western musical instruments, yet it was done to perfection.
The singer in the cheongsam had a clear and melodious voice, yet her figure was alluring, conveying a subtle sorrow; the dancer in the white veil moved gracefully to the music, her movements supple. Their interaction, limited only by eye contact, created a seamless and intimate chemistry in the musical.
In a private booth on the second floor, a man in a black fitted suit leaned back lazily on the sofa, a wine glass beside him, sipping the reddish-brown liquid inside. His deep eyes watched the ballroom with a mixture of interest and something unreadable.
Xu Shaojun had just completed a mission and was transferred to Shanghai. In order to understand the situation in Shanghai, he couldn't refuse the invitation from local officials, so he came to Dilemen.
This Dilomen is truly remarkable. To become one of the top dance halls in such a vast city as Shanghai, it certainly has some merit.
This song and dance truly deserve the title of "Didi Double Flowers".
"Brother Xu, I wasn't lying to you, was I? The stage play by the Di Le Shuang Hua is absolutely amazing. Miss Zi Xi and Miss Luo Jiu only have four performances a month, and every show is sold out. Tickets are extremely hard to come by."
A young man beside Xu Shaojun leaned over and spoke with admiration.
Xu Shaojun nodded, agreeing that the two women did indeed possess some extraordinary abilities.
