Chapter 1194: Xia Yingluo, the Lead Dancer

Xia Yingluo smiled and looked at them calmly. “Why didn’t you notify me when you ordered the dance costumes? I didn’t get to tell the tailor my measurements, so the costume didn’t fit me and I couldn’t wear it at all. I had no choice, I could only go and find a toilet at night. Who knew that the tailor dozed off and cut the dress with a pair of scissors until it had a few holes, so it could only be altered to this.”

She was lying… with her eyes wide open!

Everyone knew that she was telling a lie, it was just too fake! Could it be any faker?

However, it was impossible to refute, because every word she said was logically intricate!

“You!” Zhu Zhu was angry. “The dance clothes I sent you obviously fit!” With Xia Yingluo’s petite figure, it was fine as long as it was an S size, and at most, it just wouldn’t fit perfectly at her slender waist, or the sleeves would be a bit longer, but it wouldn’t be much of a trouble at all.

Xia Yingluo said lightly, “Would it fit well just because you say so? I’ve never even tried it.”

Zhu Zhu almost vomited blood.

The leading teacher on the side frowned and said, “Enough! Xia Yingluo, you have no discipline, we’ll settle this with you later! For now, just go on stage and perform well. If the nobles at the wedding reception are upset, I’ll be sure to punish you!”

Xia Yingluo sneered. “Yes, I will perform ‘well’.”

The MC had begun the show.

Seeing that it was too late for Xia Yingluo to change her clothes, Jiang Bilian had no choice but to lead everyone on stage.

Several pairs of feet in silk satin dance shoes stepped onto the wooden stage.

Xia Yingluo looked up, facing the lights on the stage, feeling the hot and dry feather-like light on her face.

Was this… the stage?

The domain that her mother Xia Ling had treasured for two lifetimes…

She had learned to dance from her mother from an early age, but it had just been to keep fit, and the family didn’t want to put her in the public eye. Mother Xia Ling had once said, “There are enough public figures in your family, your dad, me, and your elder brother. Every move we make is on the news day and night and has attracted worldwide attention, so much so that it’s not even convenient to go out shopping. I want you to be safe and enjoy everything a little girl should have.”

She felt the same. When she was a child, she had seen her mother besieged by a group of crazy fans several times, and the scene had been really scary.

As a result, she had obeyed the arrangements at home obediently and had kept a low profile, never showing her face in the media nor performing anything striking that would capture the attention of people. This time, she had made an exception, but fortunately, nobody knew who she was.

The music was beautiful and elegant.

Jiang Bilian had picked this song deliberately. The title of the song had the same character as her name “Lian”. She wanted to rise to fame with this one dance and be remembered by the great people present. This way, she could have extra insurance when she debuted in the future and it would all go smoothly. Zhu Zhu, Zhang Qiang, and the others were her lackeys, so they supported her naturally, and didn’t try to upstage her in terms of the dance moves and makeup. They were simple and elegant and in contrast, Jiang Bilian was like a lotus flower breaking the surface.

Unfortunately, the originally perfect scene was destroyed by Xia Yingluo.

In the middle of the dance floor, Jiang Bilian straightened her body upright with the music, and the jadeite stones around her wrists flickered. Suddenly, in the smog of dry ice spreading slowly over the inconspicuous corner, a fairy-like girl came spinning. Her waist was soft, her body was light and her face had on a smile. The lights intertwined like a small budding hibiscus, and the red crystals on her wrists shone limpidly.

It was… so beautiful.

In an instant, Jiang Bilian was upstaged.

Jiang Bilian was also unlucky. Her dancing posture had always been known for its soothing elegance. This was usually pleasing to the eye, but when compared with Xia Yingluo’s ethereal fairy-like charm, it was almost worthless. Xia Yingluo danced around her deliberately, showing her beauty in three-hundred-sixty degrees, covering Jiang Bilian purposely and making sure several of her important poses could not be seen.

Jiang Bilian was so angry that she wanted to vomit blood. She wanted to argue with Xia Yingluo loudly and ask her why she didn’t follow the rehearsal.

But she couldn’t, if she questioned her now, it would disrupt the stage and would be considered a major accident. It wasn’t a quality a qualified artist should have.

But as for Xia Yingluo? In fact, she was dancing randomly, but she did it cleverly and was on the beat to the music melody. She even took care of the dance formation and made it seem like the entire formation had been carefully arranged and nothing was wrong.

The trainees were also extremely furious, but like Jiang Bilian, they didn’t dare to stop dancing immediately to question Xia Yingluo. They had no choice but to continue to perform with patience. They were obviously dancing for Jiang Bilian to stand out, but seemed to be for Xia Yingluo instead…

Xia Yingluo flew gracefully around the stage, her posture beautiful and elegant, enchanting the guests.

At the banquet table, many guests couldn’t help but put down their knives and forks. They stopped talking and watched her dance.

Her dancing was so beautiful and she was impeccable from technique to charm. Several directors and producers were already asking, “Who is this girl? Is she Imperial Entertainment’s trainee, when is she going to debut and accept projects?”

Amidst the whispers, Pei Yan and Zhao Yixuan’s expressions turned ugly.

What happened? Didn’t everyone at the training camp already say that Xia Yingluo had been arranged to the most corner of the group dance and wasn’t attention-grabbing at all? Why was it that once she was on stage, she was dancing at such an important position! She was the lead dancer!

Yes, in their opinion, Xia Yingluo was the lead dancer.

Jiang Bilian, who was supposed to lead the dance, was completely overshadowed by her and became the second dancer. Although Jiang Bilian had worked very hard and tried several times to regain her dominance from Xia Yingluo, she was not as good and didn’t succeed.

She didn’t dare to do anything extraordinary from her established dance position.

Because she didn’t have the ability to choreograph as powerfully as Xia Yingluo on-the-spot. Once she broke away from the original dance steps, she was full of mistakes.

On the other hand, Xia Yingluo could improvise her choreography and was also very skillful at it—who told her to have a good mother? Xia Ling had taught her how to get in position to grab the camera quietly. Although she didn’t have anywhere to use this on, the mother and daughter were very similar in their desire to win, so Xia Yingluo had learned it earnestly.

Today’s stage was just a master hand’s first small display.

“Why is she so showy?” Pei Yan was unhappy and asked Zhao Yixuan in a low voice. “Didn’t you say that everything was arranged?”

Zhao Yixuan was also baffled. The trainer had told him clearly that Xia Yingluo was not the lead dancer? He was still stunned, and Pei Yan glared at him sternly, then turned to find her brother, Pei Chengyou.

“Brother,” Pei Yan lowered her voice and said to Pei Chengyou. “It’s the lead dancer, she’s that brat. You have to teach her a lesson!”
