"You must explain this kind of thing to me clearly in the future, do you know?" I looked at Xue Qi and said to her. "I don't like your participation in events such as parties and dances because these activities affect your studies, and if you think about it, if you become famous in school, many classmates will know you and come to you, and it will also affect your studies. Did You Know?"

Xue Qi lowered her head and flabrowed her little eyebrows, not daring to look at me.

At this time, the confinement who was sitting on the side persuaded him: "Forget it." It's also good to be able to go to school evenings. Besides, New Year's Day is just once a year, and being able to go to the party once a year is also a proof of Sister Xueqi's ability. If you don't take advantage of your student days to mess with your friends, you won't have many opportunities in the future, right?"

The words of confinement always make a lot of sense.

Yuezi is really a very suitable peacemaker, every time I have a little friction with Xueqi, Yuezi can stabilize us in a few words.

I took a breath, then stared at Xue Qi, looked at her and said, "Next time, if there is any performance or activity that must be approved by me, discuss it with me in advance, do you know?"

"Oh. Xue Qi nodded heavily, indicating that she agreed with my idea.

After that, we finished our dinner peacefully.

Generally speaking, I'm not very opposed to Xue Qi performing, but I really don't want Xue Qi to be the focus of other people's attention. Because, I always feel that if there are more people around Xueqi, then the distance between me and her will be.

Although the relationship between me and Xueqi is similar to that of a father and daughter or a teacher and a student, in the final analysis, I still very much don't want Xueqi to live in the eyes of others.

If possible, I will even find a way to resist the outside world interfering with Xueqi's life.

I'm afraid that if Xue Qi's appearance is known to the world, living in the spotlight, there will be a large number of boys to pursue him. After all, men nowadays are generally precocious.

The day before New Year's Day, on the evening of December 30, Yuezi and I went to Xueqi's school to watch Xueqi's performance.

When Xue Qi wore a white gothic dance skirt, white heavy makeup, and white stockings in the center of the stage and danced gymnastics with 7 or 8 female junior high school students, many junior high school boys in the audience applauded and screamed. The current little hairy child, ordinary precocious, saw Xue Qi and the girls dressed so attractively and danced so coquettishly, all of them shouted like crazy beasts.

Especially when Xue Qi and the others raised their legs a few times, revealing their white stockings, their sultry coquettish actions immediately caused a burst of coaxing among the boys in the audience.

At that time, when I saw the scene in the audience, I squeezed my fist fiercely, and I thought that if there was a next time, I would never let Xue Qi on this kind of stage again anyway.

After all, women don't understand men's hearts. When women dance passionately on stage, they think that the applause from the audience is all because of their dancing, but in fact, the people in the audience are not watching their dancing at all. It's parts of their body.

Yuezi seemed to see my mentality, she sat next to me, grabbed my hand and said, "Still dare to say that you don't have any thoughts about Sister Xueqi?"

I was stunned for a moment, then turned my head and looked at the moon in amazement. I saw her smiling at me.

"This ...... Where will it be the same......" I muttered to the confinement child.

Yuezi only smiled and said nothing.

Although Yuezi has no secrets from me, her mysterious smile still hasn't disappeared.

For this matter, Yuezi did not mention it again.

We watched Xue Qi's dance performance like that, in general, Xue Qi's dance performance was good, after all, it was rehearsed for half a month, and Xue Qi's qualifications are also very good, according to Yuezi, Xue Qi's physical qualifications are very good, her body is slender and soft, better than Yuezi herself and me, if Xue Qi can be taller, she is the most perfect dancer.

I didn't say anything about the confinement comment.

Xueqi's dance ended in a few minutes.

After that, Xue Qi stepped down.

After about five or six more shows, it was Xueqi's turn to sing on stage again.

When singing, the audience was relatively quiet, and Xue Qi's singing voice was not bad, but because of the first time she sang in front of people, Xue Qi's voice was a little trembling.

However, I noticed that when Xue Qi was singing, her eyes were ...... It seems to be looking in the direction I am.

At that time, I stood up and applauded her, although Xueqi may not be able to see me because of the dim light, but I still feel that Xueqi should feel my encouragement, and the voice behind her is not trembling much, and the tone has been very good. The only drawback is that the sound is not loud enough.

When Xue Qi sang "Walking Through the Coffee House", there was another round of applause from the audience, and I applauded with satisfaction, but at this moment, I suddenly saw a little boy in black struggling to climb up to the stage with a bouquet of flowers from the side of the stage, and then ran to Xue Qi in three steps and two steps, and gave the flowers to Xue Qi.

Seeing that scene, I felt that my heart was being pinched, and an inexplicable uncomfortable feeling permeated my heart.

That feeling is like falling into a grain of sand in my rice bowl, which is particularly unpleasant.

I saw Xue Qi blushing and taking the flowers that the boy handed her, and then said thank you shyly.

In the end, Xue Qi, who finished singing, went behind the scenes. And that one also walked off the stage.

During this period, he also frequently looked back at Xueqi's back.

I clenched my fists.

After another half an hour, the New Year's Party was over, Xue Qi came down from behind the scenes, she first said something to her classmates, drank some mineral water, and then walked straight in front of me.

“papa。 Sister Yuezi. Xue Qi, who was still wearing light white makeup and wearing a white dress, walked in front of me with mineral water in her hand and a red face. "Hehe, am I good at jumping?" Xue Qi asked me a little shyly.

She also had in her hand a bouquet of flowers that the boy had given her.

"Who is the male classmate who gave you flowers?" I didn't answer Xueqi's question, but asked her a question.

Xue Qi was a little surprised that she didn't answer her directly, and then she looked at the flower in her hand and said to me, "I didn't know him before, it seems to be a boy in class 7." ”

"Don't recognize?"

"Hmm...... I don't know. Xue Qi looked at me and replied calmly.

A certain unhappiness in my heart was slightly lessened, and at this time, Yuezi grabbed my words and said:

"Qiqi, you danced very well just now. I wasn't that great when I was your age. Your movements just now can be compared to that of the little dancer. ”

"Hee-hee. Listening to Yuezi's praise, Xue Qi grinned, Yuezi turned her head and gave me a look, I glanced back at her, and then turned to Xue Qi and said, "The dance is okay." It's just that the sound of the song is a little soft, and I don't even hear it much. Qiqi, your voice is naturally relatively small, not a singer's material, you sing lightly, which is understandable. ”

Hearing my words, Xue Qi wrinkled her nose and scolded me:

"Phew, deafness and tinnitus. ”

Confinement twisted it on my skin and raised an eyebrow at me.

After Xueqi returned to the class, Yuezi looked at me with a gloomy face: "You really can't speak." Girls, at this time, are the most in need of praise. ”

I snorted.

Of course I know that girls need encouragement.

But I said it on purpose.

In order to hit Xueqi and give her psychological hints.

Let her herself feel that it is not singing and dancing.

Because, I don't want her to perform this path in the morning.

After the New Year's Day party, Xueqi and her classmates went back to class to get together, and I waited at the school gate with Yuezi for about half an hour, and then, Xueqi, who was still wearing a white dance dress, walked out of the school.

Seeing Xue Qi come out, I stepped forward.

At this time, the costume on Xue Qi's face had been washed off, and she had returned to her original plain makeup. I have to say that compared to the appearance after dressing, Xueqi without makeup is much more beautiful and natural. Because Xueqi has been sick and has rarely gone out since she was a child, her skin is much whiter than that of ordinary girls, just like girls in Europe and the United States, white as snow.

Xue Qi, who has put on heavy makeup and painted eyebrows, makes people feel like they have suddenly become mature and very vulgar.

Seeing Xue Qi walking out with her schoolbag, I felt a little uncomfortable in my heart.

It's hard to describe that feeling, but I always feel that Xueqi in front of me doesn't seem to be the same as usual.

In my heart, Xue Qi has always been the little girl who doesn't know much about anything, is very serious in her studies, but is clumsy in doing things, but when she puts on the dance dress, I feel that she has changed.

It is true that Xueqi in a dance dress is very beautiful, whether it is a petite figure or long black hair in a shawl, or that innocent and sweet face, she has a temperament that is better than that of Yuezi at the ball, but that kind of temperament gives me a feeling of artificiality. It always feels awkward.

However, although I was quite opposed to Xue Qi going to any dance performance, Xue Qi herself seemed quite happy.

"Papa, hee-hee. Xue Qi ran and jumped into the car, her face full of excitement that could not be concealed.

"What's the matter, so happy?"

"My singing performance won the first place in the New Year's Day party song program. Xue Qi said to me happily.

"Oh? Xue Qi's words stirred up a little ripple in my heart, and I sighed lightly.

"And our dance performance, which also won first place. Xue Qi said with a grin, with irrepressible joy in her voice.

"So, you took both firsts?"

"No, there are acrobatics and sketch performances. Xue Qi said.

"Oh. That's right. "I restrained my mood swings and started the car.

And Yuezi was the opposite of my lukewarm attitude, praising Xue Qi, saying that she worked hard and did a good job.

On the way home from "Papa......", Xueqi suddenly asked me a question, which shocked me completely.

"Papa, our teacher said that I am very good at singing and dancing, and can recommend me to a professional dance troupe in the city, and ...... in the future has the opportunity to participate in the competition, and you can enter the Academy of Performing Arts ......" This sentence, Xue Qi seemed to hesitate for a long time before saying it to me, when she said this, Xue Qi's voice was very soft, if I hadn't concentrated my ears, I would almost not have heard it.

"No!!"

When I heard Xueqi's proposal to me, I really felt a storm in my heart. Xue Qi's teacher actually wants to recommend Xue Qi to go to a dance troupe, which I will never agree to anyway.

"Qiqi, I will never agree with you in this matter, you remember it for me. I won't let you participate in any singing and dancing performances in the future, you know? Don't think about these performances, dancing and anything like that, in the future, just calm down and study hard, and if your teacher still says that, I'll let you change schools, do you know?" When I said these words, my voice was so loud that even I was a little surprised.

Probably frightened by my serious tone, Xue Qi didn't say anything for a long time, and waited for a long time before Xue Qi weakly replied to me:

“……”
