Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Bottom of the Show
"That's right." Bai Yilun turned his head to look at his dance partner, "Lu, what's your shoe size?" Let's see if you can borrow your dancing shoes from Xiao Zhong's dance partner. ”
When Bai Lu heard that it was Bai Yilun's apprentice, she immediately put down the curling iron in her hand and took out her pointe shoes from her backpack, "These are my pointe shoes." The shoe size is the same as your dance partner, but I don't know it...... Does she wear soft-soled shoes? ”
Pointe shoes are divided into two types: hard soles and soft soles. Pointe shoes with hard soles are relatively stiff and suitable for dancers with relatively weak pointe foundations; Soft-soled shoes are different. If you have a very good pointe foundation, you can consider trying soft-soled shoes.
For example, professional dancers like Bai Lu are used to wearing soft-soled shoes.
Bai Lu asked this question, also to ensure that the shoes can be used after being lent out, hoping that her kindness will help and not make it more difficult for the performance of another group of contestants.
"Is that so......" Zhong Buqun's heart sank. Lu Panpan's toe is a weakness, and he always wears hard-soled pointe shoes when he exercises.
He didn't think about this before, but now it seems that Lu Panpan always wears hard-soled shoes, mostly because of her foot shape.
Because her foot shape is not advantageous, in order to ensure her safety during practice, she can only wear hard-soled shoes every time.
"Senior, can you please borrow my shoes for Panpan to try first?" It's better than nothing, Zhong Buqun couldn't bear to give up this rare last opportunity.
"Okay." Bai Lu agreed very simply, "The person who my brother wants to help must be someone who is worth helping." We look forward to a good result in the preliminaries and we will meet in the semi-finals! ”
The Bai family is a well-known art family in the whole city, and the brothers and sisters Bai Yilun and Bai Lu are famous among the new generation of literary and artistic workers by virtue of their dance expertise.
Both of them believe in "learning virtue from art first", which is also the family motto passed down by their Bai family for several generations. So, even if Zhong Buqun is not someone they know, if they can help, they will consider lending their pointe shoes generously.
Zhong Buqun finally received the usable pointe shoes at the last moment, and almost rushed into Lu Panpan's dressing room, "Panpan, you try these shoes." ”
Lu Panpan saw the shoes in Zhong Buqun's hand and immediately stood up.
She ran in front of him in three steps and two steps, and then ......
He first picked up his face and kissed him lightly.
He didn't linger too much, just touched his lips like a dragonfly. The softness he felt at that moment made Zhong Buqun a little distracted.
She muttered, "Thank you. ”
Zhong Buqun hurriedly stuffed the pair of pointe shoes into her arms, and quickly took a step back.
He didn't want her to discover the red roots of her ears.
Lu Panpan checked the upper and laces, and then changed into this pair of satin pointe shoes that looked at least new and expensive.
"These shoes...... How are soft-soled shoes?! Halfway through the shoes, Lu Panpan's smile froze on his face, "What should I do?" I've never worn soft-soled shoes......"
Strange things are more likely to provoke fear in people's deepest hearts. Lu Panpan put on his shoes and tried his movements, but found that he couldn't even find the center of gravity.
The soles of these shoes are completely different from the soles of her own pointe shoes. She felt like she had lost a strong support on the soles of her feet.
This feeling made her panic, and she was always worried that she would fall.
The weakness of the instep is not superior enough and the weakness of the Achilles tendon due to the long-term use of hard-soled shoes is fully evident at this moment.
"We ...... Do you want to bite the bullet like this? Lu Panpan's brain exploded with a "bang", but in addition to going on stage, there was only barefoot and complete, and it seemed that under the trade-off, wearing these soft-soled shoes on stage was already a good solution......
During the competition, Lu Panpan and Zhong Buqun were very front. Therefore, before Lu Panpan even finished half of his psychological construction, he was pulled by the host's voice and was about to go out of his body, and he walked on stage as if he was unconscious.
Greeting the judges, luggage, finding a placeholder, listening to the interlude, and starting to jump...... It's all about muscle memory.
Lu Panpan handed Zhong Buqun a flustered look more than once. Because the feeling on the soles of her feet was so strange to her. She'd never been in control of any soft-soled pointe shoes, and she had never been so flustered as she was at this moment.
"Zhong Buqun, I feel like my feet are about to be mine."
"What should I do, why can't it be over......"
Lu Panpan's mind is full of inner drama, but she also has to ensure that she has to make a sweet smile when she should smile, after all, ...... Overall, the tone of this pas de deux is cheerful.
Crying and laughing, toe not ready...... It's certainly hilarious to perform a dance repertoire like this.
Before jumping to the last section, Lu Panpan dared to be sure that the final score of the play she and Zhong Buqun danced was definitely the first from the bottom in the audience.
