"I want to do more, or I'll feel like I'm going to be a bad person." Shaida said.

It is because of this place that Benjamin will arrange a certain amount of work every day, not too heavy but not light, enough for her to see the changes in this family after the labor, that Shaida can live in this place with peace of mind and accept this gift. If she becomes unearned and enjoys the care of others, it will make her feel like she has become a useless waste.

She refused to move to Aunt Vera, which was also an important reason, because Aunt Vera would spoil her like a baby and would not allow her to do anything. If that were the case, she would feel like she wasn't herself anymore.

Gray looked around to make sure there was no one, so he lowered his head and gave Shaida a quick peck.

Xia Yida's face turned red all of a sudden, and he really couldn't imagine that today's events would make him change so much, as if he was a completely different person.

Obviously tired of being together for most of the day, Gray's desire for her closeness seems to be never satisfied.

"Can't you accept what I gave you with peace of mind?"

Shaida looked at him and read in his eyes what he hadn't expressed—

I'm going to be sad if you're like this, I want to hurt you well, didn't you just give me this right?

Since you have given me such rights, you have to let me enjoy such rights, and you have to make me different from others!

Isn't it my responsibility to take care of you and make you well?

Xia Yida suddenly felt warm in her heart, and there was a kind of happiness that was different from the moment when her red heart beat before.

She decided not to insist anymore and decided to obediently listen to Gray. Because of this, it seems to make Gray feel happy. If he could be happy, it would be better than anything else in the world, and Shaida found that she wished he was so happy.

"Then, if I listen to you, you will teach me to dance for a while, all the time, all the time with me to practice!" Shaida spoiled him.

She was surprised to find that Gray's eyes lit up like stars in the sky.

Now he seems to be very easy to become happy, just a simple little thing, he can be happy. This made Xia Aida suddenly feel very presence.

The world seemed to have suddenly become completely new, and she mustered up the courage to explore it cautiously in the new world. So far, it's been a good feeling.

This is just the beginning, and I am already deeply attached to the person next to me.

With only a few days left before the qualifiers, Gray deliberately put down all his work except teaching, and spent all the time he could spend with Shaida.

Now being by her side has become a legitimate thing, and I don't have to worry about anything anymore, which is very pleasant. However, as soon as they entered the practice room, the two of them seemed to be able to return to their original beginnings at once, with only music and dance left in their eyes. Gray is still strict with Shaida when it comes to dancing, and the issues he points out are still so direct, and even stricter than before.

Shaida loves days like this so much that she doesn't feel the time slipping by. In the blink of an eye, the day of the second round of the qualifiers has arrived.

This round is a live match and is expected to be more than two full days in total. In this round, only the top 100 in the preliminary round are eligible to participate, so the number of people has dropped sharply. Compared to the optional dance, the time limit is three and a half minutes, and there are no other specific requirements except for the time limit.

It doesn't matter the type of dance, it doesn't matter how you prepare it, no matter how you prepare it. In a word, what skills do you have, you can use it now, and the answer is all in the three-and-a-half dances after going on stage, regardless of the process, as long as the result.

This method is simple and crude, but it is particularly in line with Shaida's wishes. It would be unrealistic for her to suddenly gain too much stage experience and skills, but if you do that, you just need to practice that part of the dance with all your might. Stubbornly stumbling on one thing, indomitable, that is what she is best at.

What's more, there are so many people behind her to support and help her.

In this dance, there is now not only her own style, but also Gray, Kosgaard, Aunt Vera, and Kay's strength. They selflessly take out their best things, pass them on to her, and become a part of her.

Therefore, when the test came, Shaida was full of confidence and even looked forward to the coming of the qualifiers.

The location of the qualifiers is set at the largest theater in the Hokuto School Park. Here, it is usually the most solemn moment when the repertoire is inaugurated and staged, such as the graduation celebration of students, and other large-scale celebrations.

The equipment of this theater is advanced, and the stage effect is gorgeous, even no worse than the regular theater rented outside.

On the day of the qualifiers, the audience was also full.

Almost all the students of the Hokuto School Park will come to watch. Although the news of the qualifiers is not public, this does not prevent those who have paid attention to this matter in advance from coming here.

This includes tutors from prestigious schools in the three major countries, directors of famous dance troupes, and other well-informed people.

In short, most of them are future competitors.

However,Gathered here,These old acquaintances are all peaceful,Even received the warm hospitality of the Beidu School Park。

Mendoza, the principal of Nanming School Park, came over to greet Holden.

"It's been a long time, but it's still so magnificent!" Principal Holden wiped his round chubby face with a handkerchief and said with a smile.

"When you are old, in terms of temperament, where can you compare to back then!" Mendoza said.

When he was young, Holden was also a handsome young man with a good demeanor, and he was the leader in the dance world. However, when he was in his forties, he had a serious illness, and he used too many hormone drugs, which made his body become such a round and fat ball, and he could no longer see the appearance of any dancer.

But Holden was always happy, and he didn't seem to mind at all.

These two people, when they were young and vigorous, were serious competitors, and the relationship was once quite bad. But as people get older, their temper becomes more accessible and easy-going, and they feel that the calculations of their youth are really stupid.

So now, the two who have a lot of common memories are closer than ordinary people.

Mendoza and Holden shook hands, but the smile on their faces froze.

Because he saw the tall, good-looking boy standing beside Holden.

The boy's hair color and eye color are very rare, and with that delicate face, even if he has no makeup now, he should definitely not admit it!

It's him!

Mendoza remembered the male dancer who was an assistant on the stage of the Nanming Cup not long ago, the man who once used a three-minute backup dance to stir up waves in his heart.

But as soon as the dance was over, he disappeared, and even the girl who was competing with him disappeared, like a punctured bubble.

He...... How did it end up here? And, with Holden?

Wait a minute, this face, after removing the makeup, seems to have suddenly become familiar!
