Chapter 352 - 352: It Seems That Love Is Filled With Sorrow



Tang Beibei ran back to the audience area to find Jiang Jingchen and asked him softly how she and Ruan Qi did.

Jiang Jingchen whispered in her ear, “I want to play ribbons with you when we get home.”

Tang Beibei suspected that he was hitting on her when he said that, but she didn’t have any evidence. She also didn’t dare to probe, afraid that he would tease her more.

Onstage, Xi Tong and Chen Xixi were performing a jazz dance.

Xi Tong was good at jazz, but Chen Xixi’s foundation was in classical dance.

Her jazz movements weren’t clean and she subconsciously moved in a classical dance manner when she moved between sequences. Her movements looked awkward.

The dance had some synchronized movements so coordination between dancers was very important. The song choice was even more important.

Their music was fast paced, something that stirred the audience easily. The overall stage effect was good. Unfortunately, this wasn’t a cultural event but a dance competition.

When it came to dance appreciation, it wasn’t just about the dance moves but also the coherence of the dance and the story it was telling.

After watching the two of them dance, Ruan Qi concluded simply, “It’s quite lively. A crowd-pleaser.”

Fu Jin frowned and said with slight annoyance, “They didn’t listen to the teachers’ suggestions and changed their second dance at the last minute. Flashy with no substance.”

Xi Tong and Chen Xixi were both dance majors. They also trained every day at Fu Jin’s studio, so they were good dancers.

But they didn’t prepare well for this competition, which could lead to their downfall among such strong competitors!

Tang Beibei and Ruan Qi joined them onstage to wait for the result announcement.

Tang Beibei’s team scored 93 points, while Xi Tong’s team scored 88 points. Tang Beibei and Ruan Qi won. Xi Tong and Chen Xixi were eliminated!

Xi Tong and Chen Xixi were both very unhappy. When they left the stage, they both looked at Tang Beibei mockingly.

“Did you play some tricks behind our backs? Our performance was no worse than yours.”

Tang Beibei thought that since they were all members of Fu Jin’s dance troupe and would see each other at training, she answered patiently, “Yeah, you girls aren t bad. It’s just that you don’t do well together.”

Xi Tong didn’t know how to retort, so she secretly glared at Chen Xixi.

The six-team battle round ended quickly. The results were out in less than an hour.

There were only two groups left, which was four contestants.

These four contestants would now compete as individuals for the championship.

The rules of individual competition was such that contestants in the same team would fight each other first, and the winner would compete against the winner from the other team. The overall winner would be the final champion.

The production team would give them an hour to rehearse their dance.

This was a test of the dancer’s ability to think on their feet, their choreography skills and dance foundation.

Tang Beibei walked backstage and did a stretch as she clapped for Ruan Qi.

“You can do it!”

Ruan Qi also said that she could do it, but she was not confident.

She didn’t want to compete against Tang Beibei at all!

As the contestants prepared, the camera followed them.

When time was up, the emcee went onstage and invited the final four contestants onstage and announced the start of the championship match.

Tang Beibei changed into her dance costume, took a deep breath and went on stage. She was performing a modern dance this time.

“Fish”.

The sound of waves rang out, the comforting sound of wind blowing across the sea.

Legend had it that there was a mermaid in the ocean. She had been told since young that she could not go ashore, but the more forbidden something was, the more she wanted to experience it.

The mermaid went ashore. People looked at her strangely and called her a monster because she couldn’t walk and was disabled.

The mermaid couldn’t understand what they were saying. She went ashore, but she was confused as to why she went ashore.

Therefore, she tried to find a reason why she had gone ashore. She ran and fell, but she got up after falling and tried again, repeatedly, in tears.

She had already left the ocean and could only move forward.

But in the end, she fell and could not get up again. She cried in pain.

At this moment, the sound of waves rang out again. She looked up and saw a cliff in front of her. Beneath the cliff was the sea.

Every cloud had a silver lining.

Once she was in the sea, she could go home and recuperate.

Looking back at the blood stains she had left behind as she ran, she suddenly smiled.

Because she now understood why she had gone ashore.

She was trying to find herself. The curious her was another version of herself, a pitiful but stubborn girl who refused to give up on herself.

She took a leap.

Waves splashed and she swam into the deep sea.

When the music stopped, Tang Beibei stopped too and gave a 90-degree bow. Applause rang out below the stage, and some people even stood up excitedly. The dance teacher judge, Mu Zhi, clapped excitedly when she saw Tang Beibei’s dance. She was the first to speak, “I’m giving her my vote!”

The other judges smiled and agreed with Mu Zhi.

They were also very curious as to how she came up with this theme.

Tang Beibei said frankly, “One day when I was eating fish, a fishbone got stuck in my throat. It took me a long time to get it out. I thought that fish bones were quite powerful, so I thought of this dance.”

All three judges were speechless.

Jiang Jingchen couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

She wanted to maintain her figure, but she needed protein. So, she asked Silent

Sister to prepare fish, chicken, and beef for her.

One day, a fish bone got stuck in her throat and made her very uncomfortable.

He had been worried for a long time too. He didn’t expect that incident to inspire her dance.

What strange things were his wife thinking about every day?

Next up was Ruan Qi.

Ruan Qi went onstage. She looked around and felt disappointed.

She wanted to dance this dance for someone.

But he wasn’t there to see it because of another woman.

“Stay with Me”.

She didn’t want him to leave.

It was also a modern dance.

Ruan Qi danced to the music as she thought about Song Zhou. However, Mi Qing’s words kept flashing in her mind.

“You’re a mistress!”

“How do you like my man?”

Ruan Qi suddenly stopped dancing and looked at the audience blankly.

Since he wasn’t here, why should she dance for him?

When something involved Mi Qing, he always chose Mi Qing over her. It had been like that since the beginning.

She seriously doubted if she and him could make it till the end…

A lifetime… A lifetime seemed so far away.

When the audience saw her suddenly stop but the music didn’t, they were puzzled.

“Qiqi!”

Ruan Qi snapped out of her daze when she heard Tang Beibei shout her name. She followed the music and continued with her dance.

When the music ended, she improvised and changed the ending.

Her original story had a happy ending, but she changed it to being alone in love.

Perhaps it was because she had used her true emotions, her movements and expressions were very infectious. Some members of the audience were moved to tears. Applause started only after a long pause.

The applause seemed to have given Ruan Qi confidence. Ruan Qi smiled but started crying.

She quickly wiped away her tears. It didn’t matter how her relationship end up; she would have learned something.

She bowed and smiled again at the audience.

The emcee was also touched by her performance. “This is a really sad story. Is it based on your life experience?”

“No, it’s just an imaginary story.” Ruan Qi smiled.

Seeing her smile so readily, the emcee did not ask any more questions and invited Tang Beibei onstage again.

Tang Beibei walked onstage and held Ruan Qi’s hand, which felt a little cold.

She had just finished dancing. Her entire body should feel warm.

Because Ruan Qi paused during her dance, the judges considered that a mistake and declared Tang Beibei the winner.

Ruan Qi winked at her mischievously. “I have a feeling that you will win the championship.”

Tang Beibei said with a smile, “That would be awesome. I’ll treat you to a big meal when I get the prize money.”

“Deal!”

The two of them left the stage happily, leaving the emcee dumbfounded.

They were supposed to be competitors. Why did Ruan Qi, who lost, seem happier than Tang Beibei?

The next face-off was between Yao Xuan and Su Xiaochun.

Yao Xuan won.

Yao Xuan and Tang Beibei would be competing for first place!

The program team had arranged for the third and fourth place to be announced first.

Ruan Qi and Su Xiaochun went onstage.

It was a competition of points.

Ruan Qi’s points for “Stay with Me” versus Su Xiaochun’s points for “Period”.

Coincidentally, both their dances were about love.

It seemed that it was true that love was filled with sorrow.

Both of their stories were a little sad..
