The New Student Dance was similar to the New Student Welcome Party a few decades later, but without so many fancy things, and the dancing between boys and girls was also very formal.
Even every dance music has to be reported in advance and can only be used at the dance after approval from the school.
The students are energetic and modest because the activity is open to the whole school and concerns everyone's future in school, so there is no need to worry about someone messing around.
Ye Xiaoxiao and Xia Li went to a dance training class, where the senior students taught them patiently.
Ye Xiaoxiao only learned it once.
Before attending a dance, most students will invite their favorite dance partners.
In the past two years, Ye Xiaoxiao has received more than a dozen invitations from male students.
This also includes many people she doesn't know.
Ye Xiaoxiao refused.
"Xiaoxiao, haven't you found a dance partner yet?" Xia Li has already accepted the invitation from a boy in her class.
It's just a dance, nothing more.
Ye Xiaoxiao shook her head.
Xia Li: "What about the boys in your class? Are there any who are interested in the dance?"
She thought Ye Xiaoxiao was not relaxed because she was not familiar with the students, but a month had passed and she should have become closer to the students in her class.
Ye Xiaoxiao, however, looked uninterested, "You guys are engaging in involution."
Xia Li: "Involution?"
She didn't understand the meaning of the word.
"It's internal competition. They are all buried in books and studying. I guess they don't even know that there is a dance at school."
The corner of Xia Li's eye twitched, "Is it really that exaggerated?"
Ye Xiaoxiao nodded seriously, indicating that she was definitely not joking.
The two returned to the dormitory, and Wang Jiao showed off in her new dress.
"How is it?"
It was a pink plaid dress with a white lapel, a waist, and a hem that was below the knee.
Wang Jiao was originally petite and small, but after putting on the skirt she looked more like a little princess.
Xia Li nodded in support.
Wang Jiao suddenly felt discouraged when she saw Ye Xiaoxiao.
At that moment, she was thinking, if Ye Xiaoxiao was not a student at Jinghua University, she would definitely be the brightest star in Xinli.
Wang Jiao raised her voice a little, as if to encourage herself, "놖's dance partner is 뀘 Kaixuan from class one."
Xia Li was surprised, "Ah! You know me. I heard that you are the top student in the province. You are also good-looking and very popular in the class."
Wang Jiao raised her head proudly, "Not bad."
Ye Xiaoxiao has already sat down, and next to her is Tang Xiuxiu.
Ye Xiaoxiao asked, "Do you want to attend the dance?"
Tang Xiuxiu was flipping through a book: "I'm not interested. I don't think I can build a deep friendship with any male student in such a short time. A couple dance is not suitable for me."
Ye Xiaoxiao blinked her eyes, "I didn't say you have to dance with the boys. Xiuxiu, you can be a partner with me. I don't mind dancing the boys' steps."
Tang Xiuxiu put down the book and seemed to finally be interested. "Okay, then I'll start looking forward to Friday."
Wang Jiao: "What's the point of you doing this?"
Tang Xiuxiu: "Why is it boring? I just don't want to find a man to dance with."
Wang Jiao couldn't help but blurt out, "Tang Xiuxiu, are you a man-hatener?"
Tang Xiuxiu didn't get angry because of this. Instead, she raised her eyebrows at her and said, "You hate men who can't compare to you."
Ye Xiaoxiao understood that some people were the ultimate admirers of the strong, and Tang Xiuxiu should be one of them.
He Jing laughed at the side: "When you two beauties show up, there will definitely be countless people inviting you. You won't have to look for dance partners in advance."
Xia Li: "That's not necessarily true. No matter how much you're attracted to someone, a man can't abandon his original dance partner and dance with someone else. That would be too irresponsible."
What Xia Li said makes a lot of sense.
Everyone in the dormitory was discussing the dance on Friday, only Li Meiru was reading quietly.
She has been like this for the past month, as if her personality suddenly changed.
He is not usually a noisy person. He would say hello to Ye Xiaoxiao when he sees her, but he is much quieter now.
People in the dormitory didn't dare to ask her if she encountered any difficulties, because Li Meiru obviously didn't want to say.
Friday is here soon.
The dance will be held from ten in the morning to two in the afternoon.
When Xiaoye was wearing a white dress with light blue hibiscus flowers embroidered on the hem and collar, she looked too pure.
It was a completely different feeling from when she wore a red dress.
She had long straight black hair, delicate and perfect facial features, even her eyelashes were curled just right, and when she smiled, she had dimples on her face, but when she didn't smile, she was noble and cold, keeping people at a distance. When she walked out of the dormitory, even the girls in the corridor turned their heads frequently.
Xia Li walked at the end. "You have to stay away from Xiaoxiao and not walk next to her."
Wang Jiao walked down the corridor with her leather shoes clacking on her feet.
"Look at your useless appearance. Although she is very beautiful, she is not bad either."
Xia Li: "Yes, yes, you look good too."
She didn't dare to tell the truth in her heart.
You are very good looking.
But Ye Xiaoxiao is the most beautiful.
The dance was held on the top floor of the Zhiyuan Building, which is usually used for speeches, meetings and performances.
There is a big stage on top.
The dance is organized spontaneously by the students, so no teachers will be there.
Unless specifically invited by the school, individual teachers will also attend.
The dance process is regular, and people usually enter the venue in pairs.
When everyone is almost there, the first song starts playing, and those who have found a dance partner go on stage to dance.
Some people who just come to join in the fun can also watch from the audience.
There are also many fruits, cakes and melon seeds in front of the viewing seats for you to taste at will.
Ye Xiaoxiao and Tang Xiuxiu did not go on stage during the first song. They sat in the audience seats and met countless people who invited them during the performance.
Of course, most of the targets are Ye Xiaoxiao.
In the end, he was glared away by Tang Xiuxiu.
"Tsk, that's the downside of long-distance relationships. If your boyfriend was also at Jinghua University, it would save you a lot of trouble."
Tang Xiuxiu suddenly said, "Why don't you just get married? It's against the law to destroy a military marriage."
Ye Xiaoxiao was almost choked to death by her own saliva.
She seemed to have forgotten something.
Oh, by the way...
She promised Lu Hanchuan that he would consider their relationship carefully.
But once in school, her life was filled with studying and she really had no time to think about it carefully.
Now that Tang Xiuxiu brought up the topic unexpectedly, Ye Xiaoxiao was distracted at an inappropriate time.
The first piece of music ended unknowingly, and the prelude to the second piece of music started.
Tang Xiuxiu made an inviting gesture, "Dear Ms. Ye, stop being distracted, let's go up and experience the charm of the social dance together."
Ye Xiaoxiao chuckled and took Tang Xiuxiu's hand.
The combination of the two of us is indeed eye-catching, but no one thinks it is strange.
Even some men and women who originally couldn't find a suitable dance partner began to stand on the stage in this way.
