Seeing that he had returned, Zheng Xiuwen hurriedly urged, “Yunxi, go practice some more, this time you really need to practice well!”
Bai Yunxi had been wanting to talk to Zheng Wenxiu about Shen Xuedong’s harassing behavior, but Shen Xuedong came back just as she had begun to speak, and Zheng Wenxiu interrupted her.
As Shen Xuedong approached her, Bai Yunxi sighed.
“No problems, shall we continue?”
Shen Xuedong looked down on Bai Yunxi arrogantly, as if this rising star wasn’t worth a mention in his eyes.
Having worked with many big stars, this had fostered his haughty attitude; the adoration he received from so many people at school was just a matter of course to Shen Xuedong.
Excellent people deserved this kind of treatment, Shen Xuedong thought to himself with a slight smile, his gaze lingering on Bai Yunxi’s attractive figure with a hint of greed.
Noticing that brief greedy look, Bai Yunxi’s brows furrowed, and she couldn’t help but recall the small movements Shen Xuedong had repeatedly made towards her during their previous rehearsals.
If it were some necessary contact within the dance, Bai Yunxi wouldn’t have said anything, but Shen Xuedong’s actions were clearly inappropriate, trying to take advantage of her.
“Okay, let’s start over.”
Bai Yunxi took a deep breath, her eyes betraying a hint of impatience as she looked at Shen Xuedong.
The two resumed their places in the center to rehearse, the music started again, and their graceful dance movements were on display for all to see.
In the beginning, Bai Yunxi had entered the state, keeping up with Shen Xuedong’s rhythm, coordinating well with him.
But as they reached the middle section and their bodies began to draw closer, Shen Xuedong’s lips curled into an inexplicable smile, his gaze lingering on Bai Yunxi’s chest.
Shen Xuedong’s hands began to cautiously wander over Bai Yunxi’s body, her movements stiffening, her expression turning cold.
“What’s the matter?
Can’t get into the swing of it?”
Suddenly, at this moment, Shen Xuedong sternly spoke out, playing the blame game first by accusing Bai Yunxi of not being serious at this critical moment.
Bai Yunxi’s eyes widened, not expecting him to be so shameless.
Just as she was about to retort, Zheng Wenxiu, the agent supervising the rehearsal, spoke up.
“Yunxi, put in more effort!”
Hearing Zheng Wenxiu’s voice from the side, Bai Yunxi temporarily suppressed the anger in her heart.
Triumph glinted in Shen Xuedong’s eyes, causing Bai Yunxi’s expression to sour even more.
Afterward, Bai Yunxi kept trying to dodge Shen Xuedong’s advances, continually making mistakes in her movements.
At this point, Shen Xuedong was relentless, scolding her verbally while his hands didn’t stop their wandering.
From a distance, Ning Fan narrowed his eyes, a trace of anger tinting them.
Shen Xuedong was very careful with his moves, hiding them well, which proved he was no amateur at this.
Dressed impeccably, he was nothing but a wolf in sheep’s clothing; even though Shen Xuedong hid his actions well, he couldn’t escape Ning Fan’s notice—everything he did was observed by Ning Fan.
“Bai Yunxi, do you want to become famous or not!”
Suddenly, the agent Zheng Wenxiu began speaking again, looking at Bai Yunxi with a mix of frustration and disappointment, as from her point of view, Bai Yunxi kept making errors, her movements stiff and unable to match Shen Xuedong’s rhythm.
Bai Yunxi was at this point so frustrated she couldn’t speak out; her pretty face grew increasingly troubled.
Zheng Wenxiu only saw her making mistakes, never noticing Shen Xuedong’s harassing actions.
Shen Xuedong’s gaze grew increasingly smug, infuriating Bai Yunxi to the point of being unable to contain her anger.
What’s more provocative was that he now opened his mouth to reproach her, “Bai Yunxi, please be serious.
You’ve already made several mistakes!”
Having said that, Shen Xuedong snickered coldly.
His attempts to take advantage of her were met with continuous dodges from Bai Yunxi, which were very disconcerting for him.
However, the more Bai Yunxi resisted, the more excited Shen Xuedong became.
This gave him a sense of slowly conquering her, and he looked for another opportunity to take advantage while dancing with her again.
Bai Yunxi was close to despair.
She wanted to openly accuse Shen Xuedong of his sleaziness to everyone, but he always acted self-righteous, making it seem as if she were the one at fault.
Even if she exposed his actions later, it was likely that not many people would believe her.
Facing Shen Xuedong’s sleazy advances and her agent’s scolding, Bai Yunxi’s emotions were on the verge of collapse.
“Dance is not danced like this!
And it is not taught like this either!”
A loud voice rang out in the venue, echoing in the air long after it was spoken.
The music also stopped abruptly at that moment, and Bai Yunxi broke free from Shen Xuedong’s grip, stepping back.
Everyone was stunned and turned their gazes towards the source of the voice.
In the audience seats, Ning Fan was standing up, with a disdainful smile on his face, as if he were watching a joke while looking at Shen Xuedong.
Xu Xiaoqing, Wang Xiaodie, and Zhou Jiangming beside him were taken aback, and now all eyes were on them.
“What are you doing?!”
Xu Xiaoqing asked in a hushed tone, and couldn’t help but step aside, pretending not to know Ning Fan.
Ning Fan didn’t pay any attention to Xu Xiaoqing, but instead slowly walked down.
“Who are you?”
Dance teacher Shen Xuedong, agent Zheng Wenxiu, and Bai Yunxi’s gazes all focused intently on Ning Fan.
Shen Xuedong glared at Ning Fan, angrily questioning his identity.
But Ning Fan didn’t even glance at him, completely ignoring Shen Xuedong as he slowly approached.
Seeing himself being ignored, Shen Xuedong’s face changed, filled with a sense of infuriated embarrassment.
Bai Yunxi stared blankly at Ning Fan, as if petrified, standing still, with shock and disbelief written all over her beautiful snowy eyes.
She would likely never forget Ning Fan’s face in this lifetime.
After capturing the smile on Ning Fan’s face, Bai Yunxi felt as if rage was rising in her heart, and boundless anger surged in her beautiful eyes.
The person who had disturbed her peace of mind these past few days could be no one else but Ning Fan.
The events of that night played back clearly in her mind upon seeing him again.
Now Bai Yunxi’s snow-white face was tinged with red, whether from anger or from seeing Ning Fan—the person responsible for her constant unrest and today’s inability to dance properly during rehearsal—was unclear.
“It’s you!” Bai Yunxi bit her lip, shouting internally.
She could never forget the incident of that night, and now, seeing Ning Fan, her gaze was as sharp as a sword.
“What’s with this punk causing trouble?
Go away and cool off where it suits you!”
Right beside Bai Yunxi, her agent Zheng Wenxiu shouted angrily, treating Ning Fan as someone who had come with the intention of causing a disturbance.
