The next morning, the "Placeholding", a traditional event that is indispensable for the entrance ceremony for new students of School A, was held in the chapel.

In the afternoon, according to the instructions on the timetable, Bai Xinrui rushed to the gymnasium, and a group of freshmen went to the tennis center under the leadership of Elizabeth and William in Year 12 and Lauren in Year 10 to participate in the dance party where the freshmen met.

School A's gymnasium has 6 indoor tennis courts, 3 indoor basketball courts, 2 volleyball courts, an indoor rugby field, 5 squash courts, a fencing training center and a cheerleading training center, as well as a professional swimming pool and an ice hockey rink.

There is a whole wall of glass windows in the long corridor of the gymnasium, which neatly displays the trophies, medals and medals won by the various teams of School A over the years, as well as the uniforms, shoes, bats and other items used by the star players. Looking at the glittering shop windows along the way, the majesty of the students of School A on the sports field for 200 years seems to be right in front of you.

Bai Xinrui tried her best to walk to the front of the line in order to get closer to the male god William in her heart, however, she soon found that walking beside the two senior sisters was very stressful. Elizabeth has vampire-like pale skin and looks like an eighteenth-century aristocratic girl from a famous painting, and Lauren is 1.80 tall, which is simply shockingly beautiful.

The venue for the new students to meet the ball is the tennis hall, where the nets have long been packed up, and the six professional venues are integrated, which is larger than the dance training center and much smaller than Harry Potter Hall, which can accommodate nearly 200 new and old students to dance together.

The tennis hall has a ceiling that is two stories high from the ground, and the solid wood keel and white beams are intertwined to make it both beautiful and sturdy, and the school flag of the Ivy League School in the East flutters on it, and the warm white lights with old-fashioned lampshades on the roof illuminate the gymnasium like a sunny outdoors.

In the corner of the tennis hall, the band members are already waiting there, this is not a five-member small band, but the whole class is fully equipped, with small lifts, cellos, trombones, saxophones, and bass and brass drums...... At the moment, they were already playing upbeat country music.

Elizabeth stood in the middle of the room and explained to the new students: "The dance we are going to learn today is called the 'Ranks' or 'Array Dance', which originated in the English countryside in the 17th century, combined with the characteristics of Scottish dance, and was later accepted by the French court as a Baroque court dance. In the early years, the dance was particularly popular at gatherings in North America, especially in New England. ”

Elizabeth then asked Lauren and William to demonstrate the dance steps. The steps of the Ranks-and-Dances are actually not complicated, and most students learn them within a few minutes.

Elizabeth then lined up the boys and girls in two long lines, led by William and Lauren, respectively. When dancing, each pair of students needs to cooperate with each other to complete a set of dance steps, and then exchange dance partners.

As everyone became familiar with the dance, the boys and girls were divided into an array of eight men and eight women, and danced to the accompaniment of the band.

At first, the young boys and shy girls still had serious faces, politely holding hands with their partners, and moving their rusty dance steps, spinning and dancing with the music. Before you know it, almost all of the more than 100 freshmen have taken turns to change dance partners, and everyone has gradually become acquainted.

At this time, some students were sweating, the boys took off their obstructive blazers and ties, and only wore handsome trousers with light-colored shirts, while the girls didn't seem to be so awkward in their dancing steps in high heels, and their smiles became brighter and brighter.

Later, everyone formed a big circle in the gymnasium, with boys in the outer circle and girls in the inner circle, talking and laughing while jumping, and the atmosphere was extremely relaxed.

As far as the eye can see, the dancing crowd, blonde and blue-eyed Europeans and Americans account for the absolute number, most of the girls have light-colored hair and lily-like delicate faces, however, although they are all beautiful, they are too imaginative, and they can't tell which one is who, on the contrary, Bai Xinrui, the black-haired girl, stands out in the crowd.

Gradually, the frustration of being crushed by her appearance disappeared, and she raised her swan-like neck again.

The music sounded again, and when Bai Xinrui handed her hand to the tall and handsome senior William, William lowered his head and kissed her lightly on the back of her hand in a playful and friendly manner.

In her history of puberty love, which was a headache for her mother, and a little complicated and confusing, she had never met such a perfect boy: his face was so handsome, and the gods of the Greek statues were to be eclipsed before him; His smile was so clean, and it seemed that the mundane things never seemed to enter his eyes or mess with his heart; His manners were so noble, imbued with a perennial good education, that he was the true gentleman of a young gentleman in New England.

Bai Xinrui's heart beat like a drum as the two danced, but despite this, her gaze still followed William's Apollo-like glorious face like a small flame, greedily looking at William's light brown eyes, which were as warm and bright as the sun, her tall straight nose, and the lovely ripples at the corners of her mouth when she smiled...... In the middle of a staggered spin, the slight smell of perfume on William's shirt made her feel dizzy.

Seeing that the song was about to end, and the male god was staggered, Bai Xinrui was a little anxious.

Suddenly, he had an idea, and said to William, "I'm sorry, William, I haven't learned this dance step yet, can you take me with you again?" ”

Mr. William nodded and said, "Very willingly." ”

In order not to prevent other students from changing dance partners, William deliberately brought Xinrui to the center of the circle, deliberately slowed down the dance steps, and explained while cooperating with the little girl's dance steps.

Bai Xinrui began to learn dance systematically at the age of five, proficient in ballet, jazz, Latin and modern dance, at the age of eleven or twelve, she began to mix in various nightclubs to make handsome guys, dancing has always been her specialty, how can such a simple array dance steps not be learned? It's just that her little brain is unwilling to dance with William with others, and she is bent on keeping the tall and handsome senior by her side.

With William's hand-in-hand and patient guidance, Bai Xinrui was in a good mood, she sometimes rotated, sometimes turned around and smiled at William, but she always did not forget that at the critical moment, she made a mistake by one or two beats, and occasionally pretended to be unstable on her feet, William subconsciously tightened her arms, and Bai Xinrui took this opportunity to stay in his arms for a while.

"Am I a little stupid?" Bai Xinrui asked softly.

William smiled generously and said, "No, Stella, you are very talented. ”

Bai Xinrui was like a vine rose, half coquettish and half tricky tightly pestering William, and William had to continue to dance with her one dance after another. There were already many girls in the array who couldn't see it, glaring at Bai Xinrui angrily, but Bai Xinrui didn't care, and sometimes took advantage of William's inattention, raising her beautiful face and making faces at those girls.

Before the next song sounded, Lauren came to William and Bai Xinrui with a series of beautiful spins, and she said to William: "You really can't teach dance, otherwise, how can our smart elementary school girl not learn it after learning from you for so long?" Get out of the way, and I'll teach her. ”

Lauren's words clearly relieved William, and he still nodded politely and thoughtfully to the two before turning to leave.

Bai Xinrui was quite disappointed, and stood in place for a long time staring at William's distant back.

At this time, the ancient and cheerful music sounded again, and Lauren took Bai Xinrui's hand and jumped up. Lauren is a head taller than Bai Xinrui, she dances the boy's dance steps very handsomely, and from time to time skillfully dances a few difficult trick dance steps, Bai Xinrui closely follows the rhythm of the senior sister, whether it is footwork or dancing, she is not lagging behind at all, and Lauren cooperates seamlessly.

Lauren smiled as she jumped, and said, "Stella, you're dancing really well." It's a demonstration for everyone. ”

Bai Xinrui smiled dryly and said, "It's a good senior sister...... Well...... Senpai, I'll jump...... You can go back to the team. ”

Lauren said, "Okay, if there's anything else you can't do, feel free to find me......"

As he spoke, the two stepped on the rhythm of the music and blended into the array of students in a large circle.

In the blink of an eye, Bai Xinrui's dance partner was replaced by Jiang Ruichen. Chenchen's dance steps were very clumsy, shackling Bai Xinrui's flexible toes all the time, making her almost fall every time, Bai Xinrui instantly returned to reality from her heart just now, and her good mood was all gone, she glared at Chenchen angrily while dancing, and whispered: "Jiang Ruichen, look at it, don't step on people's feet!" I've never seen someone as stupid as you! ”。

Chen Chen looked sorry, and said with a smile: "Miss, don't lose your temper, it's okay, I'm also jumping for the first time." ”

At this time, Bai Xinrui noticed that in another circle queue not far away, William gently took Luo Yuyou's hand. Luo Yuyou's dance steps were light and her waist was soft, and William danced steadily to match her.

I saw his arm lightly, the girl spun away from the crook of his arm, the wide skirt flew up, like a blooming white lotus, the two were suddenly separated by a few feet, and the rhythm, William took Yu You's hand with a slight force, and she spun back into his arm several beautiful times in a row.

William looked at Yu You with approval on his face, and at the end of the song, he gently lifted the slender Yu You, spun around in the air and put it down steadily, causing a burst of cheers around him.

Bai Xinrui felt a burst of anger inexplicably, and when the next song sounded, her dance partner stood in place, looking at the pair of beautiful people, and forgot to let go of her hand, Bai Xinrui pouted and shouted: "Annoying Jiang Ruichen, you should let go." ”
