Chapter 227 - 227: A Day Apart Feels Like Three Years



Chapter 227 - 227: A Day Apart Feels Like Three Years

Tang Beibei was very calm. She pointed at her face and said, “I’m too ugly and I’m always despised by others. 1 also feel helpless.”

Fu Jin heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that there were no marks on her face. However, he felt a little helpless when he heard her self-deprecatingly call herself ugly.

She still has no idea how beautiful she was.

“How goes your dance for the New Year’s Eve party?”

“It’s alright. We’ll practice more today.”

Tang Beibei looked at Ruan Qi, who felt a little guilty. “1 have no objections, but to be safe, we’d better practice more.”

They agreed to practice after class, but they couldn’t do it at the TCM clinic anymore. Ruan Qi was traumatized when she found out that Lu Linlin kidnapped them because of Song Kai.

Fu Jin was also worried to have them practice outside so he asked them to go to his dance studio. He would let them use his private dance studio.

“Private dance studio?”

Fu Jin explained, “It’s where 1 train. You guys practice for a while and then I’ll give you some pointers.”

“Would that be appropriate?” Tang Beibei said.

Fu Jin looked at the two of them and explained with a smile, “I’m your class monitor. Your program doesn’t just represent you, it represents our class. Beibei, do you not consider me your friend?”

“No, it’s just that it’s a little presumptuous to use your private space.”

“You’re overthinking this.”

Tang Beibei looked at Ruan Qi to seek her opinion. Ruan Qi thought for a while before she nodded. The two of them agreed to go over.

When they arrived at the dance studio, Fu Jin brought the two of them upstairs and unlocked a dance studio.

There were mirrors on two walls and two pots of flowers by the window. Although it was winter, they were blooming quite well.

Fu Jin said, “You guys practice here. I’ll come and get you when the teacher is here to start the class.”

“Thank you, Captain!”

Fu Jin chuckled softly. “Hurry up and practice. The people downstairs are all professional trainees. They train almost every day. If you don’t train, you’ll be left behind.”

Tang Beibei instantly felt the pressure. She put down her bag quickly and started practicing.

Fu Jin smiled and closed the door. He saw Ye Lan outside.

“You need me for something?”

“Captain, I thought you don’t like people using your private dance studio?”

Fu Jin chuckled and glanced at the door. “Yes, but they are my friends.”

Ye Lan asked with a frown, suppressing her anger, “Just friends?”

“This is my private matter.”

“Captain, I…” Ye Lan wanted to say more, but Fu Jin waved his hand. “I’m the captain here and you are all my team members. That’s all. You may go downstairs now.”

His voice was gentle but authoritative.

Although he was young, he was quite capable. He looked gentle, but his methods were not soft. On the contrary, he had his own toughness.

Ye Lan also knew that she would make him unhappy if she continued to speak. However, it was obvious that in Fu Jin’s heart, Tang Beibei was different from the rest of them. Ye Lan was frustrated and walked away unwillingly.

An hour later, Fu Jin went to his private dance studio with two bottles of water to give them pointers on their dance.

After he watched the whole dance, he didn’t say anything but laughed a few times.

Tang Beibei and Ruan Qi were already nervous. When they heard him laugh, both of them felt a little scared.

“Captain, just tell us directly if we didn’t dance well. We can take it.”

Fu Jin cleared his throat. “You’ve improved a lot.”

“…” Even Tang Beibei’s breathing became measured. They had improved a lot. Clearly, their dance wasn’t good enough.

Fu Jin saw the defeat in their faces and laughed again before he said, “Your dance is fine among performances from other classes in our faculty. However, it’s weak on the stage of the New Year’s Eve Gala.”

Tang Beibei frowned nervously. “Tomorrow, several performances from our faculty will be assessed together, but we won’t be able to pull off a different dance.”

Fu Jin said calmly, “Don’t panic. You can use this dance to compete with the other classes tomorrow. There are quite a few talented medical students. I know who they are and can count them with two hands.”

“But when you perform at the New Year’s Eve Gala, you can’t just do a dance. You must also make people remember your dance and remember you when the party ends.”

Tang Beibei understood what he was trying to say. He wanted them to come up with an original and memorable work.

However, how could they come up with something like that easily?

Fu Jin continued, “Dance movements aren’t the most important thing in a dance. What’s important is the content and story you are trying to tell. You can reinvent a story that everyone is familiar with or tell it in a different way. Your way.”

“It could be a cliche story but told with your point of view and attitude. That is your innovation.”

Tang Beibei and Ruan Qi looked at each other with bitter expressions. What he said sounded easy, but it was very difficult to do.

Fu Jin’s voice was gentle and encouraging as he continued, “Don’t limit yourself to this dance studio for now. You can find something else to do. Something else to spark your creativity.”

“Beibei, Ruan Qi, art has always come from life, from our life experiences. Your unique experiences can bring different perspectives to a story. That’s your art and no one can take that away from you.”

“Thank you, Captain!”

After hearing his words, Tang Beibei finally realized that this man, who was the same age as her, was much better than them in terms of artistic accomplishment and dance mastery.

Ruan Qi also sighed. “Captain, listening to your words of wisdom is more valuable than reading ten years’ worth of books. 1 don’t know why, but I suddenly feel that your voice is so nice.”

Fu Jin laughed in amusement. “Don’t flatter me. I’ve already given you the opportunity. It’s up to you whether you will seize it.”

The teacher had arrived downstairs, and the three of them went downstairs for dance training.

Teacher Zhang had heavy makeup on today. She said that it was to complement today’s dance, which was a modern dance with Chinese opera elements. Everyone was very curious to learn it.

When the training ended, Tang Beibei packed her things and turned to look at Ruan Qi, who had no intention of leaving.

“Qiqi, aren’t you going home?”

Ruan Qi waved her hand. “I’ve ordered some takeout. I’ll eat my takeout here later. I’m not going home yet. Please go ahead.”

Tang Beibei knew that Ruan Qi wanted to practice more. Fu Jin was right. The other members were all dance majors. It was already an exception that the two of them, who were amateurs, were recruited. If they didn’t work hard, they would easily be left behind.

Tang Beibei didn’t say more. She left the dance studio and saw Jiang Jingchen when she got into the car. He opened a bottle of water and handed it to her.

“Tired?”

Tang Beibei gestured with her pinky. “A little.”

Jiang Jingchen wiped the sweat on her forehead with a tissue. It was winter, and cold wind was blowing outside but her clothes were wet with sweat.

Tang Beibei drank the water and felt that it was warm. But when he held her hand, she felt that it was cold.

She quickly blew hot air on his hands to warm them.

She felt that it wasn’t very effective. So, she placed his hands under her arms. Her armpits were warmer than her hands.

“Hubby, the weather’s cold. Do your legs hurt? Are you feeling unwell?” She asked worriedly.

Jiang Jingchen looked at her nervous little face and put her on his lap. He lowered his head and whispered in her ear, “Yes, 1 feel very uncomfortable.”

“Where?”

“A day apart feels like three years. I miss you so much that my head hurts, my

heart hurts, and my body hurts. You must help me relieve it.”
