After the morning training session, Tina yawned three times, gave them a few instructions casually, and prepared to slip back to the dormitory to sleep.
Cheng Zhi still hadn't figured out what he was struggling with last night. Just when he was about to follow Tina to ask her about it, she sent him away with just two words.
"It's time for me to get off work. You can go ask Teacher Song this afternoon. He is most familiar with this movement..."
After saying that, she ran away without looking back.
Cheng Zhi and the other four teammates were left looking at each other in bewilderment.
"She runs so fast."
"Teacher Song is still the best. He was never in a hurry to get off work..."
Hearing that Teacher Song was not in a hurry to get off work, Cheng Zhi's mouth twitched uncontrollably.
Who said Teacher Song is not in a hurry to get off work?
Then who was the person who coaxed him back to the dormitory to rest in the practice room last night with just a few words, and then refused to teach him because it was too late?
Even though she begged Song Baiyi in a nice way, he still rejected her coldly.
I was so exhausted from struggling with my movements while I was lying in bed last night that I tossed and turned until three in the morning, unable to fall asleep.
Cheng Zhi originally thought that Song Baiyi would come to the practice room this morning to teach him the moves, but Tina told him that Song Baiyi would not come until the afternoon.
His expectations were dashed and Cheng Zhi was depressed for the whole morning.
…
At noon in the cafeteria, Chen You was surprised to see the food Cheng Zhi put into her bowl.
"You have such a good appetite today?"
Cheng Zhi hummed sullenly, "Maybe because today's dishes all look pretty good?"
Chen You looked at the dishes on the table, which were almost the same as usual, and began to wonder if there was something wrong with her eyes.
When watching Cheng Zhi finish all the food in his bowl with an expressionless face, Shen You realized it very clearly.
Well, it’s definitely not something wrong with my eyes, but there might be something wrong with Cheng Zhi’s brain.
Before he had the chance to ask Cheng Zhi why he suddenly behaved so abnormally, he saw the man in front of him stood up with a plate in his hand and said something.
"I'm done eating. I won't be going back to the dormitory at noon today. Take your time eating."
After saying that, Cheng Zhi left without looking back.
Chen You was a little worried, so she dropped her half-eaten meal, ran to the vending machine to buy a bottle of probiotic drink, and then ran after him.
Cheng Zhi, who had just left the cafeteria, walked slowly towards the practice room with his arms folded. After a few steps, he was stopped by Chen You.
He stopped and turned to look at the person behind him.
Chen You was breathing slightly, with traces of stains on the corners of her mouth from her meal just now. She had a bottle of drink in her hand and was looking at herself with a frown.
"What's wrong?" Cheng Zhi asked gently.
Chen You didn't say anything, but took two steps forward and forcibly stuffed the drink into Cheng Zhi's hand before speaking.
"Here...here you are. Didn't you have a bad stomach before? You just finished eating. Remember to rest during training later."
Chen You curled her fingers slightly, bit her lip and looked up at Cheng Zhi, "I feel that you are not in a good mood today. If you encounter something bad... you can tell me. Even if I can't solve it, but if I say it, it can make you feel better."
Looking at Shen You's appearance, Cheng Zhi's eyes flashed, and he smiled slightly, "I'm not in a bad mood."
After saying that, Cheng Zhi raised his hand and rubbed Chen You's head, "Thank you, I received your kindness."
"Then why..."
Before Shen You could ask, Cheng Zhi explained, "It's just that there's a movement in training that you don't understand. Don't worry, it will be fixed soon."
Seeing that Cheng Zhi's expression was normal and he didn't look like he was lying, Shen You breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good."
Cheng Zhi accepted the drink that Shen You had just stuffed into his mouth.
"Go back quickly, the food will get cold and won't taste good."
After coaxing Chen You back to the cafeteria, Cheng Zhi walked towards the practice room with a drink in one hand and the other in his pocket.
There were still few people training in the practice room today. Cheng Zhi had long been accustomed to this quiet feeling. He walked to his practice room with an expressionless face, skillfully closed the door, opened the window, and turned on the speakers. His movements were done in one go without a trace of procrastination.
After finishing everything, Cheng Zhi felt that he had almost digested it and was about to start training when he accidentally glanced at the drink he had just placed on the speaker and that Chen You had stuffed into his mouth while panting.
His body acted before his brain, and before he could react, he had already unscrewed the bottle cap and poured the drink into his mouth.
Cheng Zhi took a sip, and the unique sweet and sour taste of the probiotic drink spread on his tongue. Putting down the drink, Cheng Zhi licked the corner of his mouth and looked at the label on the drink.
Mm, orange flavor.
Cheng Zhi took two more sips before putting the drink down, preparing to continue drinking after training.
Just after adjusting his state, Cheng Zhi was about to put on music and start training when he heard a gentle knock on the door.
Cheng Zhi felt a little annoyed that his progress was disrupted. Without looking up, he shouted at the door: "The door is not locked, just come in."
After getting permission, the person outside quickly pushed open the door of the practice room.
"Excuse me, can I borrow your practice room again today?"
Cheng Zhi looked in the direction of the voice and saw Huo Shuhang standing at the door, looking at him cautiously.
At the same time, what Shen You had said before appeared in his mind.
"The staff said the door of the practice room opposite is broken and can't be locked..."
Cheng Zhi raised his eyebrows, but did not expose Huo Shuhang. Instead, he said calmly, "Sure, but you have to pay rent to borrow the practice room today."
Huo Shuhang probably didn't expect Cheng Zhi to do this suddenly. He was stunned for a second, then reacted, "Rent? What rent?"
From Huo Shuhang's perspective, Cheng Zhi was standing in the backlight and couldn't see his facial features clearly, but he could feel that he tilted his head slightly and said in a light tone, "Well... For example, teach me a move or something?"
Huo Shuhang was a little confused, "Teach you the moves?"
"Yeah." Cheng Zhi took the tablet in front of him and quickly moved the progress bar to the action that he had studied for a long time yesterday but still couldn't figure out, and motioned Huo Shuhang to come over and take a look.
After reading it, Cheng Zhi explained: "Here, Teacher Song's part is blocked, and the front and back don't connect. He was in your practice room this morning, right? He should have taught you."
Huo Shuhang looked at his nose and thought about what happened today when Song Baiyi sat down in front of the practice room and said, "If you have any questions, come and ask me. If you don't have any, practice by yourself." Then he watched them dance for the whole morning with an expressionless face.
Song Baiyi gave everyone such a strong sense of oppression that the whole morning passed without anyone coming to ask him questions.
Huo Shuhang rubbed his nose and said in a muffled voice, "He hasn't taught this part today..."
Cheng Zhi nodded, "Is that so."
After saying that, he took back the tablet and stopped making things difficult for Huo Shuhang. "That's fine. I'll study it myself."
Before Cheng Zhi turned around and left, Huo Shuhang called him first, "Well, I think I can give it a try."
Cheng Zhi turned and looked at him, "Try what?"
"Pay...rent?"
Huo Shuhang continued to explain: "I have learned this song once before. I can roughly imagine the movements of the part where Teacher Song is blocked. If you don't mind, I can dance it once and then you can see if you can accept it. If you can, then it will be my rent, okay?"
Cheng Zhi's eyes turned around and finally stopped at Huo Shuhang's face. He agreed with him, "Okay."
Anyway, this is the only part of the whole dance that I am not very clear about. My original purpose of coming to the practice room at noon today was to see if I could figure it out. Since Huo Shuhang said he wanted to give it a try, then let him have a try.
After all, two people working together would definitely be faster than one person, Cheng Zhi thought.
After getting Cheng Zhi's permission, Huo Shuhang nodded, found a place with good lighting and viewing angle, and started to skip to the part that Cheng Zhi had just told him.
Cheng Zhi stood beside Huo Shuhang and looked up at the person dancing in the mirror.
When it came to the crucial part, Cheng Zhi focused his attention on Huo Shuhang's movements. At the beginning, the connection was very smooth and natural, and the movements were in sync with the music. It looked natural and smooth. At the same time, there were no major flaws at the end, and it was connected with the movements of others.
Cheng Zhi raised his eyebrows slightly, and had a rough idea of the action in his mind.
Huo Shuhang stopped after completing the part Cheng Zhi had assigned him. He asked curiously, "How is it? Do you think this move is okay?"
Cheng Zhi turned off the screen of the tablet and nodded, "Not bad, I'll teach you how to dance like this, I can accept it."
Hearing that Cheng Zhi was willing to learn, Huo Shuhang's brows also showed a little joy, "That's good, I will teach you now."
After saying that, he stood back to his original place and danced the same movements he had just danced in slow motion.
Cheng Zhi was a quick learner, and by the time Huo Shuhang had danced it both at slow and normal speeds, Cheng Zhi had almost finished learning the movements that were blocked in the video.
When Cheng Zhi felt that he had almost mastered it, he jumped again for Huo Shuhang.
Huo Shuhang nodded, "Yes, I declare you a successful apprentice."
Cheng Zhi hummed, "Thank you."
After saying that, Cheng Zhi returned to the other side of the practice room with the tablet in his arms, raised his chin, and signaled Huo Shuhang, "I'll take the rent, you can train over there."
After Huo Shuhang paid the rent, he felt more confident in training. He began to practice his movements in front of the mirror over and over again.
On the other side, Cheng Zhi yawned, and then started dancing from the beginning to the movement that Huo Shuhang had just taught him. It connected naturally with the following dance. Cheng Zhi also silently accepted this setting in his heart. Just as he was about to practice it well, he heard a knock on the door.
Cheng Zhi stretched his body and then signaled Huo Shuhang with his eyes to open the door.
The door opened and Song Baiyi appeared at the door. Huo Shuhang narrowed his eyes and felt that Song Baiyi didn't seem to be wearing the same clothes in the morning.
He was wearing a dark grey shirt with the top two buttons casually undone. A silver necklace hung on his collarbone, gleaming faintly.
Huo Shuhang was obviously not mentally prepared. When he saw Song Baiyi appear in front of him, he was visibly surprised.
"Teacher Song, why are you here?"
Song Baiyi glanced at him expressionlessly, and did not answer Huo Shuhang's question. Instead, he asked, "Why are you here?"
Cheng Zhi didn't move, but stood there and took a sip of his drink before slowly explaining for Huo Shuhang: "He came to borrow the practice room from me."
Huo Shuhang hummed, "That's true."
Song Baiyi walked in, cast his eyes on the man who was sipping his drink, and asked softly, "He doesn't have his own practice room?"
Cheng Zhi put down his drink, pulled his head and looked at Song Baiyi with a smile, "He taught me the moves, and I lent him my practice room. It's a fair deal."
Song Baiyi's eyebrows slightly frowned, "Teach you the moves?"
Cheng Zhi hummed, walked up to Song Baiyi, and said pitifully, "It was the move that I wanted Teacher Song to teach me last night, but you cruelly rejected me..."
Cheng Zhi continued to complain, "Teacher Song, why did you come to the practice room at noon? Isn't it your working time now?"
Song Baiyi chuckled, "I'm here to work overtime."
"I was originally planning to teach you during lunch break. Since you said Huo Shuhang has taught you, why don't you dance once and let me see how you do."
After hearing the reason, Cheng Zhi was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that this was the reason why Song Baiyi came to the practice room now.
After a moment of distraction, Cheng Zhi quickly adjusted himself, walked to the mirror, pressed the music play button, and started playing from the beginning.
When it came to the part that Huo Shuhang was teaching him, Cheng Zhi suddenly felt something was wrong, but he suppressed the feeling and continued to dance according to the movements Huo Shuhang taught him.
Song Baiyi stood behind Cheng Zhi and watched the whole dance. After he finished, Song Baiyi slowly said, "Dance the part that Huo Shuhang taught you again for me."
"Oh, okay." Cheng Zhi agreed and obediently danced the section designated by Song Baiyi again.
Only after this dance did Song Baiyi make a practical evaluation.
"Not bad, but there are three things wrong with it."
After Cheng Zhi heard what he said, he jumped over the places he felt were wrong, and stood still, motioning to Song Baiyi, "Is it here? I think if I put my hand down and then pull it back, it will..."
Before Cheng Zhi finished his gesture, he felt a warmth coming from behind him. At the same time, the minty scent of Song Baiyi mixed with a hint of bitterness from black coffee pressed towards him. The deep and pleasant voice of the person behind him rang in his ears, making Cheng Zhi's ears feel a little hot.
Song Baiyi's tone was gentle, "You don't need to lower your hands so low here. Just reach out when you get to this place."
As he spoke, Cheng Zhi felt Song Baiyi's left hand grabbing his wrist and taking his hand to the designated position. The temperature on his wrist reminded Cheng Zhi that all this was really happening.
After teaching a move, Song Baiyi released Cheng Zhi's hand and asked softly, "Do you understand?"
Cheng Zhibie turned his head away, and his voice was much softer than before, "Yeah, I understand... I understand."
Huo Shuhang, who had watched the whole process from the side, was stunned.
The Song Baiyi in front of him who was gently teaching Cheng Zhi step by step, was the same person as the Song Baiyi who had put on a cold face and asked them to train in their practice room this morning? ? ?
