277: Chapter 277: I Need a Dance Partner 277: Chapter 277: I Need a Dance Partner Ning Fan’s performance began, and his entire demeanor transformed suddenly, as graceful as a prince on a white horse from a fairy tale.
Everyone was stunned, while Xu Xiaoqing and the others in the audience’s seats were thrilled, as expected, Ning Fan did not disappoint them.
Bai Yunxi’s eyes shimmered with astonishment.
She hadn’t expected Ning Fan to reveal such a stunning side.
Meanwhile, Zheng Wenxiu at her side wiped her eyes, completely astounded.
“How is this possible, he only watched it once!”
Shen Xuedong cried inwardly, horrified as he watched Ning Fan performing the dance he had merged from over a dozen styles.
Not only was each move exactly the same, but the transitions were so flawless, simply seamless!
“Eh, isn’t that the dance performed by Teacher Shen?”
“It really is!”
“No way, he just watched it once, how could he possibly remember everything, and perform it so perfectly…”
As the music reached its passionate and exciting part, someone finally realized that Ning Fan was performing the dance Shen Xuedong had previously performed.
Though he had only watched it once, he had managed to perform it all.
Not only that, each move was so perfect, it could be called seamless, even better than Shen Xuedong’s previous performance.
As the crowd realized that Ning Fan had perfectly imitated Shen Xuedong’s previous performance, they looked at the center of the stage with shocked faces, as if Ning Fan was illuminated by the spotlight.
“Damn, this guy is amazing, a hidden master!”
“A master among the common folks?”
“He could perform the whole thing after just one viewing, does he have a photographic memory?”
“If anyone dares say this guy can’t dance now, I’ll punch their lights out!”
Everyone was dumbfounded, they had not expected the one they previously called a madman, a charlatan brought in by a monkey, to be so incredible.
They had initially considered Ning Fan a joke, but Ning Fan’s performance was a slap to their faces.
Ning Fan was no joke, if there were any jokes, it was them!
The onlooking dance students felt their faces burning, ashamed of their earlier statements.
They instinctively bowed their heads, but it wasn’t long before they couldn’t help but lift their heads again to observe Ning Fan’s dance.
The murmuring crowd praised him internally, while Shen Xuedong, standing aside, had a face as dark as liver, filled with shock and anger.
He only performed it once, and Ning Fan was able to replicate it perfectly, even outperforming him.
“Who exactly is he?” Zheng Wenxiu walked over to Bai Yunxi and couldn’t help asking.
Bai Yunxi shook her head, feeling as curious about Ning Fan as her agent Zheng Wenxi.
Ning Fan was able to perform so perfectly, Bai Yunxi felt astonished, yet conflicted because of the incident that night, which had left her with a very negative impression of Ning Fan.
As the music ended, Ning Fan stopped dancing, chuckled, and looked at Bai Yunxi smugly.
“Humph!” Bai Yunxi snorted delicately, rolling her eyes at Ning Fan’s boastful face.
However, at that moment, Shen Xuedong rushed out, screaming, “This is imitation, plagiarism, what skill is there in that!”
The dance students, who were about to clap their hands, paused in mid-motion, leaving only Xu Xiaoqing and her group applauding and cheering for Ning Fan.
Ning Fan turned his head and gave Shen Xuedong a roll of his eyes, sighing, “It seems that today I have to take an unfilial disciple, albeit a bit old!”
With Xu Xiaoqing and her group’s applause, Ning Fan’s voice was particularly grating in Shen Xuedong’s ears.
At the same time, a student finally couldn’t bear the oppressive atmosphere of the moment and burst out clapping, shouting loudly, “Well danced!”
Following that student’s lead, thunderous applause broke out suddenly, and most of the students were overcome by Ning Fan.
Shen Xuedong watched the dance students with annoyance, too angry to speak, his face turning red and then pale, but he held back his outburst due to concerns about his image.
At this moment, the manager Zheng Wenxiu watched Ning Fan awkwardly, never having imagined that Ning Fan truly had the skills and wasn’t just causing trouble.
Then, Ning Fan approached Bai Yunxi and stretched out his hand saying, “I need a dance partner.”
Someone snickered, unexpectedly causing a commotion, and almost caused them to twist their backs.
But now, they dared not mock Ning Fan anymore, for he was genuinely impressive.
Now their laughter was more good-natured.
Bai Yunxi looked at Ning Fan’s face, suddenly filled with anger.
She thought for a moment but ultimately decided to reject him.
However, before she could speak, Ning Fan gently laughed and said, “Miss, the grievances you suffered during the dance I will surely soothe with a better performance.”
Immediately afterwards, under everyone’s eyes, Ning Fan took Bai Yunxi’s hand and led her to the center of the stage to dance gracefully.
In the audience, Xu Xiaoqing’s face fell as she exclaimed, “I knew this guy was up to no good!”
Watching Ning Fan dance gracefully with Bai Yunxi at the center of the stage, Xu Xiaoqing now felt envious, looking at Ning Fan with different, deeper feelings.
Bai Yunxi let out a cry, her movements stiff, starkly contrasting with Ning Fan’s graceful dance moves.
She blushed and looked at Ning Fan awkwardly, unable to keep up with his rhythm.
Seeing this, Shen Xuedong finally saw his chance.
He sneered and instantly started ridiculing, “I thought there was some skill, but he’s just a monkey who can mimic others.
And he thinks he can teach others?”
But this time, Shen Xuedong’s ridicule did not resonate with others.
The group of dance students looked at Ning Fan with anticipation.
“Relax, look into my eyes.”
Ning Fan’s gentle voice resonated in Bai Yunxi’s ears, who took a deep breath and slowly relaxed her spirit, immersing herself in Ning Fan’s dancing movements.
Bai Yunxi gradually got into the groove, finally being led by Ning Fan, and at that moment, their dance truly unfolded before everyone.
As Bai Yunxi caught up with Ning Fan’s rhythm, their dance moves became beautiful and elegant, with Ning Fan appearing like a gentleman and Bai Yunxi radiating a noble aura.
Everyone was astonished by the duo’s performance, unable to resist exclaiming in admiration.
Zheng Wenxiu watched the two dance together, her eyes wide with surprise, and she couldn’t help but clench her hands.
As Bai Yunxi entered a transcendent state, dancing with Ning Fan as gracefully as swans, Shen Xuedong’s expression became increasingly fierce.
“Despicable couple!”
Shen Xuedong watched the two jealously, his gaze towards Ning Fan filled with deep resentment, completely loathing Ning Fan.
