Chapter 248: Little Piece, Want to Watch Together?
Ye Chuxiao awkwardly pulled at the corner of her mouth. A poor student couldn’t help a top student with homework. As for giving love letters, I’ve never seen this person write one!
“Basically, yes.” Lu Ziyi just wanted Ye Chuxiao to understand him; he had no intention of explaining his character to Nangong Yanting.
Nangong Yanting couldn’t be bothered to delve deeper into what she perceived as this “playboy’s” life. She turned to Ye Chuxiao and asked, “Have you ever learned to dance?”
“…I have, but it was when I was little. I…”
Nangong Yanting didn’t have the time to listen to Ye Chuxiao’s explanation. She said, “I’ll complete the entire performance with Lu Ziyi in a bit. You record it, and then help him practice. I really don’t have time to keep doing such low-level, useless things.”
“But I…” Ye Chuxiao was very conflicted. She had only practiced dancing when she was seven or eight years old.
Nangong Yanting looked at Ye Chuxiao indifferently, “Aren’t you his assistant? Helping him practice dancing should be your job!”
“Xiaoxiao, record it first,” Lu Ziyi said.
Ye Chuxiao said nothing more.
Nangong Yanting played the music and performed the dance from beginning to end with Lu Ziyi. Ye Chuxiao recorded it, regretting that she only had one pair of hands and one mobile phone, no multiple camera angles, and worried she hadn’t recorded the entire process well.
After just one take, Nangong Yanting packed her things. “Lu Ziyi, you practice with your assistant. I’ll come back tomorrow afternoon at three to practice cooperation with you. That’s all. Goodbye!”
Nangong Yanting left. Ye Chuxiao looked at the mobile phone in her hand, then at Lu Ziyi, feeling dejected. “Senior Student Ziyi, what do we do now? Should we ask a girl from the school’s dance team to come and practice with you?”
“No need. Xiaoxiao can practice with me,” Lu Ziyi said. “If we invite another girl, she’ll just be driven away by me. Xiaoxiao, you… you won’t dislike me, will you?”
“No, that’s not what I meant.” Ye Chuxiao’s small face crumpled. She wasn’t asking him to invite another girl because she disliked Senior Student Ziyi; it was just that she truly didn’t have the level to judge whether Senior Student Ziyi danced well. Moreover, she didn’t know anything, so how could she cooperate with Senior Student Ziyi in dancing?
Lu Ziyi didn’t mind. “Xiaoxiao, we’ll just practice. If it’s good, it’s good; if it’s not, it’s not. We just need to do our best. In any case, this is a singing competition, and backup dancers are just an additional form of expression. Besides, I’m not planning to get first place; Chusheng is standing in the way!”
That was true. Even if she danced beautifully, she couldn’t compare to her Brother Chusheng’s powerful singing.
Ye Chuxiao no longer hesitated. She stood shoulder-to-shoulder with Lu Ziyi, watching the dance playback on the mobile phone screen. In reality, Lu Ziyi knew how to connect the mobile phone to a projector to watch videos on a large screen, but he deliberately didn’t say anything, preferring to have Ye Chuxiao’s head next to his, watching the small screen on the mobile phone.
The main focus was on the three parts that Nangong Yanting had highlighted earlier.
Then, they practiced section by section.
Ye Chuxiao had a little foundation in dance, though it was a long time ago. Furthermore, her older sister always practiced dancing and had a private tutor come to their home. Ye Chuxiao often watched her sister learn and would occasionally dance along, so she wasn’t completely unfamiliar with dance.
For the intro section, although Nangong Yanting and Lu Ziyi had no physical interaction, to help Lu Ziyi grasp the emotion of “secretly in love,” Ye Chuxiao diligently followed Nangong Yanting’s choreography and learned that part of the dance.
