Chapter 49 Close-up Dance



Rong Yu wanted to buy some very ordinary things, like colored lights and glow sticks, which were obviously meant to liven up the evening atmosphere.

Yin Chengjue had listened to Rong Yu's group's new song, which they had composed and written themselves, and even voted for it a few times. However, he was busy with company matters for a while and was also distracted by the promotion of the new variety show, so he forgot about it. Unexpectedly, the voting deadline was fast approaching, and the production team had started recording the results of their work.

To ensure fairness, the production team did not publicize the recording of this episode. Even the places the trainees were to go were decided by lottery at the last minute, in order to avoid large groups of fans going there to cheer and affecting the most authentic scene.

Yin Chengjue knew that his face had been appearing frequently on trending searches recently, so during his shopping trip, he also bought himself a baseball cap, sunglasses, and a mask to cover his face completely, becoming just a ruthless porter.

"Brother Rong! You're back!" Seeing Rong Yu carrying things on both shoulders, the trainees who were still practicing roller skating in the square took off their shoes and ran over to help.

"Huh? Is this Rong-ge's friend?" Tao Li noticed Yin Chengjue following behind Rong Yu.

It's really hard not to notice, given Eun Seung-jue's height.

"Yes, I didn't expect to buy so many, so I had to ask a friend to help carry them. Come on, let's get decorating!" Rong Yu put one of the boxes in Tao Li's hands. Tao Li saw that the two of them were carrying two boxes each and looked quite relaxed, so he thought the boxes weren't very heavy. But when he got them, he realized they were incredibly heavy and almost pushed him to the ground!

"Wow! Brother Rong! Did you buy a bit too much? Did you bring the whole supermarket here? It's so heavy!" Tao Li stood up unsteadily, almost falling over, before Fang Mengda, who came over behind her, helped her up.

"Give it to me, with your small frame." With that, Fang Mengda lifted the box with one hand.

"Ugh!" Seeing how relaxed everyone else was, Tao Li felt like she had been hit with a critical strike.

Yin Chengjue gave a brief greeting to the others.

Upon closer inspection, these trainees are indeed quite handsome, with little difference from their appearance in the videos. Rumors circulating online that the show used excessively heavy filters for their debut have proven to be false.

Thinking that most of the people here were members who debuted in their previous lives, Yin Chengjue took out a notebook and pen from his pocket: "Actually, I'm not helping out for free, so please sign here."

Six people: "..."

Tao Li dazedly finished signing the notebook, her expression somewhat dazed, and said, "Is this what it feels like to sign autographs for fans? Why do I feel so conflicted?"

Others: "..." Because no fan would ask you for an autograph in a tone that sounds like they're asking you to sign a contract of servitude.

"By the way, how did your practice go? Did Ayu and Xiaoli get it right?" Rong Yu changed the subject.

Wen Yu smiled shyly: "I'm all better now."

Tao Li exclaimed excitedly, "Me too! Next, we're going to rehearse a cool roller skating dance, right? I bet we'll be the most dazzling 'Six-Zai' here tonight!"

The others also showed expressions of eagerness.

Although they were drawn for this spot, most of them know how to roller skate, and the two who don't are learning very quickly. As long as they practice some moves, their performance will definitely be more innovative than those other dance and singing shows.

It doesn't matter whether the moves are professional or not; the key is to be novel, eye-catching, and memorable. Ah, these are the roller skating trainees.

Rong Yu said, "Here's what I'm thinking: there are six of us, right? We can dance in pairs. Since time is tight, we can dance our group dance and then do a hand-holding and spinning motion at the end of the song."

As Rong Yu spoke, she put on her roller skates. Then, as if remembering something, she turned to Yin Chengjue and asked, "Brother, can you skate on these?"

They had already agreed that, in order to avoid revealing their identities and causing unnecessary trouble, they would simply call each other "brother".

Yin Chengjue was standing to the side watching them when he was suddenly called out. He nodded with some confusion.

Rong Yu handed over a pair of roller skates, and Yin Chengjue took them and found that they were exactly his size.

Is this a coincidence? Otherwise, how would Rong Yu know his shoe size?

A strange thought flashed through Yin Chengjue's mind, but he was about to grasp it when Rong Yu's next words shattered it.

"Brother, let me demonstrate for you!"

No, even if you wanted to give a demonstration, you don't need me, do you? Don't you have five teammates here?

Yin Chengjue was full of questions, but with so many people around, he couldn't refuse Rong Yu's request. So he put on his shoes, slid forward a few times to get used to it, and then stopped.

Rong Yu had already started sharing his ideas with his teammates. As the team leader, and probably because he usually got along well with them, his teammates listened attentively as he spoke, like a group of well-behaved students.

Rong Yu said, "...Doesn't the group dance have a closing movement? My suggestion is to omit that and add this last movement..." As he spoke, he slid towards Yin Chengjue.

Rong Yu was tall and slender, but not in a thin and bony way. His skin was covered by well-proportioned muscles, and every movement he made carried a sense of power. With a light glide, he quickly came to Yin Chengjue's side like a fish swimming in water. Without stopping, he directly took Yin Chengjue's hand, which was hanging naturally at his side.

The momentum of the sprint, combined with Rong Yu's own strength, actually pulled Yin Chengjue and slid him several meters away.

Yin Chengjue adjusted his speed entirely by feeling to keep up with Rong Yu's pace; otherwise, he would have been pulled down by the force long ago.

Rong Yu started pulling Yin Chengjue around in circles. He seemed completely unconcerned that Yin Chengjue would let go, and the rotation was extremely large, with the roller skates under his feet almost touching the ground at an angle.

Yin Chengjue didn't know what to do, so he could only squat down to cooperate. Rong Yu circled around him, and he squatted down and spun around in place.

Following the two's tightly clasped hands, one could see Rong Yu's smiling eyes.

The swirling wind seemed to shut out all outside sounds for a moment, freezing the moment in that single glance.

Yin Chengjue saw Rong Yu's lips move and asked in lip-reading, "What kind of dance can you do?"

Yin Chengjue doesn't know how to dance, except for the kind of social dances performed at banquets.

“Okay.” Rong Yu raised his hand slightly, and Yin Chengjue guessed that he was about to get up, so he stood up as well.

The large rotating circle gradually shrank, and the two bodies gradually pressed together. Yin Chengjue put his left hand behind his back, and slightly raised his right hand, holding Rong Yu's hand, so that Rong Yu could spin around in his hand.

Yin Chengjue then reached out his left hand and supported Rong Yu's side waist.

Yin Chengjue was surprised to find that Rong Yu actually knew how to dance ballroom dances, and even dances with female partners.

The sweat-dampened shirt was slightly transparent, clinging thinly to Rong Yu's skin, making Yin Chengjue almost unable to feel that there was a layer of clothing covering her waist. As they danced, the places where the two occasionally touched felt as hot as if they were on fire.

Fortunately, Rong Yu remembered that this was just a demonstration, and she didn't jump for long. She gracefully spun around a few times in Yin Chengjue's arms, then raised one leg, hooked it around Yin Chengjue's neck, and leaned back confidently.

Yin Chengjue quickly reached out to support Rong Yu's waist, and with his other hand he took Rong Yu's raised hand, completing the finishing move.

After the dance ended, all was quiet.

Yin Chengjue felt that a long time had passed, but in fact, the two of them had only danced for a short three minutes.

Three minutes later, they spun together, stood up, and then danced a rumba. The passionate and tender rumba is the essence and soul of Latin dance. However, without superb skills, it is easy to fall down by colliding with your feet while skating the rumba.

The two of them hadn't practiced beforehand, yet they jumped down without making a single mistake and even gave a perfect finish. How could that not be surprising?

Of course, putting technique aside, such a passionate and intimate dance performed by two tall men doesn't seem out of place at all; in fact, it's quite pleasing to the eye.

Even though only Rong Yu was showing her face, Yin Chengjue, wearing a mask and sunglasses, with his baseball cap pulled down very low, was still enough to attract attention.

The evidence is that adults and children who were originally strolling and practicing rollerblading in the square all gathered around, and some of them had already raised their mobile phones.

Although my brother has recently become very popular, he hasn't reached the point where everyone knows him. It's normal that people in the square don't recognize these trainees.

Moreover, the production team wanted to film how they attracted attention among non-fans.

“…That’s about it.” Rong Yu, slightly out of breath, took the water bottle from Yin Chengjue.

The other five people paused in their clapping, instantly revealing expressions that said, "Are you kidding us?"

Tao Li said, "Rongrong, do you think I haven't fallen enough?"

Chi Yang raised his chin: "Although I don't have any problems, we still need to look at the overall picture, and I can only dance the male step of the rumba."

Rong Yu paused for a moment, then realized that everyone had misunderstood him. He laughed and said, "I meant the spinning around earlier. Two people holding hands can just spin around a couple of times and then strike a cool pose. Our focus is on singing, not dancing."

The others: "..." Are we blind? The dance you just did wasn't just two spins! You were practically twisting your hips, swaying your waist, and taking off on the spot while still on your brother!

Thinking of this, they looked at Yin Chengjue in tacit agreement, thinking to themselves that this guy's grip strength was really good, even when he was pulled so hard, he didn't let go.

Yin Chengjue was still gulping down water, trying to suppress his rising anger. Sensing someone watching him, he adjusted his sunglasses and looked back, calmly saying, "Weren't you supposed to be training?"

His voice was a deep, husky tone with a magnetic quality.

"Yes, yes, yes! Hurry up and practice! We're going to pull off a big heist tonight!" Tao Li clenched his fists.

Yin Chengjue: Luckily I work out regularly, otherwise I would have been pulled down by Xiaoyu, which would have been so embarrassing.

Rong Yu: QAQ I originally wanted to create a "chance" incident of him falling and kissing, but he didn't fall! He didn't fall even with all that force! Should I be happy that he's strong, or regretful that my plan failed? This is such a terrible dating guide; I've followed it for so long, and...
