Chapter 069 The Olive Branch of the Loser (I)
The sixteenth was the day of the competition, and Qiao Lin was so stressed that she didn't notice the abnormality of her sister and Xu Wei. She only had one thing on her mind, and that was to win the championship. Then go to the capital and stand on a much wider stage.
Teacher Meng told her that now she is the lead dancer, not only to do her own movements, but also to speak out in time if others have something bad to do. Only then can she become a true leader of the team.
Qiao Lin was no longer as submissive as before, she nodded solemnly, and assured Teacher Meng: "Teacher Meng, don't worry, the stage will be handed over to me!"
This time, a total of 25 teams participated, the champion and runner-up can participate in the national competition, and the third or fourth can go to observe. Mr. Meng's goal is very clear, regardless of the runner-up, he must go all out to sprint to win the championship. The players also know the importance of this competition, and everyone is in good spirits.
Jolene was very serious about making preparations, staring at the movement on the field with her peripheral vision. As expected by Mr. Meng, the style of each team is similar, everyone is full of youthful and invincible smiles, and even the curvature of the corners of their mouths is the same. The movements are lively and powerful, neat and uniform, which is very much in line with people's consistent impression of calisthenics.
Jolene glanced at the judges' bench again, and although the judges were looking at it very seriously, it was obvious that they were already a little aesthetically fatigued. Qiao Lin faintly felt that Mr. Meng's risky chess move was very right, no matter what the judges would say, but as long as Gangcheng No. 2 Middle School appeared, it would definitely make their eyes shine.
The tenth appearance of Gangcheng No. 2 Middle School, when it was their turn, Du Juan, who had been helping in the background, grabbed Shen Chunxiao and said solemnly: "During training, you changed your movements several times, and the arena is not used to your bad problems." If you make a small move, don't blame me for being rude. ”
Shen Chunxiao wanted to roll her eyes, but because everyone else was there, she was worried about her image, so she didn't roll her eyes successfully, but her expression was already very unhappy.
Qiao Lin took her hand for the first time and said sincerely: "Don't think about anything else, as long as we have one heart, the champion will definitely be ours!"
This was the first time Qiao Lin took the initiative to show affection, and Shen Chunxiao was instantly stunned. However, when she saw Jolene's eyes, she felt that she was not "showing affection", but ordering her as the lead dancer. Shen Chunxiao nodded so-so, and followed the team to the stage.
A group of seven people, all seventeen or eighteen-year-old flower girls, they are wearing red clothes, and they are particularly eye-catching on the stage. Qiao Lin stood in the middle, although she was very nervous, she quickly adjusted her expression, and said in a sweet and crisp voice: "Hello teachers, we are the representative team of Gangcheng No. 2 Middle School, and the repertoire we brought is "Dancer", please give more advice from the judges!"
The speech was clear, short and powerful, and Mr. Meng in the audience nodded approvingly. Qiao Lu and Xu Wei sat in the crowd and waved at her. Xu Wei specially went to the printing shop to make a cheering card, and he and Qiao Lu held one by one. Qiao Lu is holding "Qiao Lin is the best", and Xu Wei's is "Qiao Lin is the brightest".
The cheering card was beautifully done, and Jolene saw it at a glance. When she watched "Super Girl", she was extremely envious of those contestants, because their fans were holding beautiful cheering cards and shouting slogans for them. She didn't expect that when she stood on this stage, there would be someone to support her.
She was grateful, but she responded flawlessly, quickly standing in formation and ready to start.
"Dancer" is an exotic dance song with a strong rhythm and a very sexy feeling. Teacher Meng also added some very charming elements to the prescribed aerobics movements. These high school students are already full of youthful vitality, coupled with a little girlish mystery and sexiness, which brings out the characteristics of this dance music to the fullest.
As the lead dancer, Jolene's movements are slightly more complex than the others'. Before the last measure, there is a blank melody in which Jolene performs a neat somersault and then splits into a horse. Then, to the melody of "spinning", spin on the ground with your teammates.
Live flips are very demanding for a dancer, and if the center of gravity is unstable, it is very likely to fall on all fours and forks. Therefore, before this climax, Mr. Meng was sweating in his palms. When she played herself, she had never been so nervous.
Qiao Lu and Xu Wei also held their breath, watching Qiao Lin perform intently, praying in their hearts that she would not make a mistake.
After her teammates dispersed to either side, Jolene's figure was revealed. In the spotlight, the slender body is extremely determined. She turned away, and when she looked from the side, she could even see the smile on the corner of her mouth. She did the somersault perfectly to the beat, and then got off the horse without any obstacles, soft as a boneless, but full of powerful beauty.
Teacher Meng's heart finally let go of her throat and eyes, and she took the lead in applauding, and the audience suddenly burst into warm applause. Even the meticulous judges put down their pens for the time being and applauded the little girl from the bottom of their hearts.
Unfortunately, in an instant, their applause came to an abrupt end, because there was an incredible scene on the stage.
They were supposed to "spin" clockwise, but one of the team members made a mistake and flipped in an anti-clockwise direction, colliding with Jolene solidly. There was a mistake, and she didn't quickly correct it, but actually smiled at Jolene.
Jolene didn't see any apology in her eyes, only shamelessness. She couldn't believe that on such an occasion, Shen Chunxiao would actually make such a mistake. For a moment, Jolene was a little confused, but the music continued, and she didn't stop, but finished the rest in a more perfect state.
At the curtain call, Jolene's blood pressure soared with anger, but she still bowed with a smile and thanked her, once again winning applause from the audience. After returning to the backstage, Shen Chunxiao made a preemptive move, covered his face and cried: "It's all my fault...... I really didn't mean to, I was really nervous......"
Jolene pulled her hand off and asked angrily, "You don't come to this set of moves, you just did it on purpose, right?" We have practiced this set of movements thousands of times, how could you forget the direction?"
Shen Chunxiao's eyes widened with tears and said innocently: "Qiao Lin, even if I make a mistake, how can you say that about me? Are you saying that I don't have a sense ......of collective honor? I made a mistake, it's uncomfortable enough, are you satisfied if you have to die to apologize? Who do you think you are? I'm already uncomfortable enough, can you shut up first?"
"Smack!"
Before Shen Chunxiao's words fell, he was slapped firmly on the face. She looked up in amazement, only to realize that it was the cuckoo who had slapped her.
The cuckoo's anger value was about to explode, and his delicate face was full of murderous energy. As soon as the cuckoo made a move, there was no need for Shen Chunxiao to pretend to be weak, she turned her face for a second, raised her right hand not to be outdone, and slapped it in the face of the cuckoo. The cuckoo was already on guard, sneered and grabbed her wrist and pushed her to the ground.
Shen Chunxiao's mistake on stage has caused public anger, and when they saw her fall to the ground, they all wanted to go up and step on it. But reason finally prevailed over impulse, and they did not make a move, but stood there and looked at her coldly.
But Du Juan didn't get rid of her hatred, she pulled Shen Chunxiao up and said, "Shen Chunxiao, no one here is used to you, you don't pretend to be weak for me." Get up!"
Shen Chunxiao staggered to his feet, and before he could stand firmly, he was pushed against the wall by the cuckoo. Shen Chunxiao was hit and grinned, this time it should have really hurt, not pretending.
"You, you have ruined all the hard work of our people! Do you know how shameless you are?" Du Juan was pulled by everyone, but his anger could not be calmed, and he pointed at Shen Chunxiao's nose and scolded.
Shen Chunxiao slowly raised his head, but his beautiful eyes became extremely terrifying. She patted the dust off her body and approached the cuckoo step by step, looking at her posture, as if she was going to kill the cuckoo.
Undeterred by her momentum, the cuckoo roared even louder. Qiao Lin stood between the two of them and said coldly to Shen Chunxiao: "You'd better be calm, the moment you made a mistake, you have been removed from the aerobics team;
Shen Chunxiao hesitated for a moment and paused. Teacher Meng walked in, she looked tired, and said, "What are you doing here, it's not shameful enough, is it?"
Qiao Lin restrained her emotions and said, "Don't make trouble, everyone, I'll have to go on stage to accept the award later!"
One of the team members couldn't help crying, but sneered and said, "Receive the award, thanks to Shen Xiaohua, what other award can we get?"
Jolene's tears were rolling in her eyes, but she was stronger than anyone else: "Although we made a mistake, we will definitely win the award." No matter what the award is, you must come back beautifully!"
Teacher Meng was heartbroken, but Qiao Lin's performance made her very pleased. She clapped her hands and said, "Jolene is right, what accounts will be settled later! Wipe away your tears and go on stage with so many pairs of eyes, you must not be ashamed anymore!"
The backstage gradually returned to calm, and everyone's expressions were as cold as ice. Jolene hopes for miracles, but she knows in her heart that "miracles" are called miracles because they are so rare.
In the end, the port city only finished third, and could not participate in the national competition, so they had to go to the capital to observe. The moment Jolene received the trophy, she wanted to laugh, but tears flowed down her cheeks.
She remembered her usual fate, for example, she took 401 out of 400 people recruited in the second middle school; her brother asked her to be admitted to the top five in the class, and she took the sixth test; in this provincial competition, the champion and runner-up could participate in the national competition, but she won the third place impartially.
She cried, maybe everyone thought she was sad, but no one knew how desperate she felt after being tricked by fate again and again, after being unable to get rid of her fate again and again.
Qiao Lin was in no mood to be angry with Shen Chunxiao, and she didn't want to accept her sister's comfort. After she changed her clothes, she walked out in a very low voice. Unexpectedly, a big hand grabbed her.
Jolene looked up and saw a man of about thirty years old standing in front of him, with a big oily back, a casual suit on his upper body, and a pair of beige pants underneath, exuding an artistic atmosphere.
"Hello classmate, can I say a few words to you?" his voice was also quite gentle, and he didn't look like a bad guy.
Jolene was extra vigilant: "Who are you?"
"I'm the director of 'Good Listening' Entertainment, and I just saw your performance on stage, and I feel that you have a lot of potential to be an artist. If you're interested, let's talk!" The man handed over a business card and smiled, "This is my business card, you don't have to be afraid." ”
