One person suggested, âWhy donât we dance? We can sing and do a hot dance!â
âI donât think thatâs a good idea. Weâre at school, after all.â
âThen, letâs just sing.â
âOh please, isnât there enough singing at the festival every year?â
âThen what should we perform? Are we really smashing cement blocks on our chests?â
ââ¦â
Everyone fell silent.
Like a bowl of water had been poured on their heads, their enthusiasm was instantly extinguished.
All the performances at the New Year Festival were being rated. So, it wasnât just a simple performance; it was also a competition between the classes.
Considering the competitive situation between the first and third class, losing was not an option! Especially not to the first class!
Butâ¦
For the last two years, the first class had taken home the top three rankings.
Could they really win?
âLetâs do a play or a classical dance.â
A voice suddenly interrupted.
Everyone looked over. When they realized who had made this suggestion, there was a strange expression on their faces.
Because, in the third class, this person was someone who had been singled out. She was in the third class, but her heart was with the first class. After all, she was good friends with Song Jingwan and she often opposed Song Yaoyao.
Xu Yue did not notice everyoneâs gazes as she stared at Song Yaoyao and said, âSince we all have dance backgrounds, we can practice over the next few days. While everyoneâs doing pop dances, we can try something different. Also, the first class is bound to perform a play. We shouldnât avoid it just because it is their specialty. We should accept the challenge. If we win, it would be so satisfying, and even if we lose, we donât have to be sad; we have three tries.â
âThatâs easy to say. How do you know our performances will be liked?â
âExactly! Donât tell me youâre messing with us to help the first class.â
Everyone was still hostile toward Xu Yue.
Who told her to be so annoying in the past.
The skinny girl smiled. Her single eyelids and wild eyebrows made her look carefree and casual.
When she wasnât scheming, she was surprisingly pleasant to the eye.
Xu Yue looked at Song Yaoyao. âOur performance will be likedâ¦because we have Song Yaoyaoâ¦â
With her around, they would never lose.
She was the backbone of the third class.
Everyone was surprised as their gazes fell upon Song Yaoyao.
Song Yaoyao nodded as she looked into Xu Yueâs eyes. Her lips curved upwards. âOkay.â
They were performing a classical dance and a play.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Thenâ¦
What about the third performance?
Song Yaoyao turned around.
Shen Xun sensed something was wrong and immediately stood up to leave. âBig Bro, Iâm busting to go to the toiletâ¦â
âWait.â
Song Yaoyaoâs eyes curved and she called out sweetly to him, âShen Xun, you and Han Jun can handle the third performance.â
A cold sweat formed on Shen Xunâs head. âNo, I canât. Iâll only embarrass us. Really!â
Everyone lowered their heads and whispered amongst themselves, âDid you hear that?â
âNo, I didnât hear anything.â
They were deaf at that moment.
Han Jun choked in fear. âThatâs right, Yaoyao, we canât do it! Also, think about it, Brother Xun may have a bad temper, but heâs quite popular! If he does an act with me, his admirers will have their hearts crushed!â
