Chapter 44 Making Registration for Dance Club
Xia Xiaoluo walked across the corridor of the teaching building without noticing a familiar figure standing back to her. It was Xia Jingru, showing a wicked and evil smile after Xia Xiaoluo left, speaking to herself, “Hm, Xia Xiaoluo, do you think you have destroyed all the pictures? No way! After I upload all the pictures to the Internet, I believe you won’t be able to put the case clearly even if you are eloquent.”
“Hand it over!” Fang Ruichen said in a cold voice at the back of Xia Jingru.
“Ah!” Xia Jingru gave a cry of fright. But, when she found it was Fang Ruichen, she immediately showed her an affectedly sweet look.
“It’s you! Why did you appear behind me all of a sudden? It’s really scaring!” Xia Jingru pretended a maidenly shy look, which would not arouse Fang Ruichen’s interest at all.
Fang Ruichen stretched to seize Xia Jingru’s smartphone. He had a careful look at the album in it and could not help frowning. Who could believe that this woman took photos of both Xia Xiaoluo and him? And in some of the pictures they there were having dozes. Xia Jingru was really nasty.
“I don’t want to make any enquires anymore. But all I wanna do is just warn you that I will make your eyes blind if you dare to take photos of other people without permission again. This phone will be confiscated by me and here’s some money compensating you for your smartphone.” Taking out a handmade wallet made of pure rawhide, Fang Ruichen dug into it for a pad of banknotes and threw them directly at Xia Jingru’s face, causing them to scatter around.
Xia Jingru felt that she was insulted and aggrieved, but she managed to control herself. Holding Fang Ruichen, who was leaving, by his strong arms, Xia Jingru said to him in a voice full of grievances and charms, “My smartphone is now ruined by you, so would you like to accompany me to buy a new one?”
Turning around, Fang Ruichen grabbed Xia Jingru by the throat and raised her chin. He had a deliberately careful look of her up and down, saying, “You’re really ugly. Want my company? Do you think you deserve it?”
Fang Ruichen said what he had to say and strode off.
Xia Jingru stood alone in the empty corridor of the teaching building, not knowing whether she should leave or stay. Besides, facing a mass of paper money on the ground, she felt almost heart-rendering. Why didn’t the boy like her? Instead, he was quite friendly to Xia Xiaoluo and seemed to be close with her. She was really annoyed and was completely sick of it…
Xia Jingru had always been very confident about her figure and her appearance. However, why did Fang Ruichen dislike her? She really did not understand. In the middle-high school for the nobility, she had already attracted countless boys who were in their first bloom of love. As far as she was concerned, there would be no such a man who she could not handle as long as she made the first move. But today she had been humiliated by Fang Ruichen twice.
Despite the fact he treated her like that, she still thought that he was so handsome that she was reluctant to let him go.
Xia Xiaoluo did not tend to have dinner in the fancy restaurant on campus. She made a phone call to Dou Ya immediately. Although Dou Ya was busy with the military training, she still had the free lunch time. They ate a big meal in the street famous for local delicacy and enjoyed themselves.
“Duo Ya, I am going to join the Dance Club of the college. Here’s the invitation card given to me in person by the president. This afternoon, I will go for registration.”
“Wow, it’s so great! You devil Xiaoluo, you have always been gifted in performance. Now it’s a chance to show your talent. Keep it up!” In the army green, Dou Ya adopted a “Yeah” pose, making her extremely courageous.
“Duo Ya, to tell you the truth, the president of the Dance Club is super handsome and looks like a superstar,” said Xiaoluo, who acted like a girl who was easily infatuated with an attractive young man. Both of them were fond of checking out handsome boys and making judgments about them in middle school.
Dou Ya said with excitement in her eyes, “Xiaoluo, you must occupy the handsome young man.”
Xia Xiaoluo suddenly thought of Ling Tianyi’s warning and then her eyes dimmed. She told Dou Ya, “Although he is very handsome, he is not to my taste. Or, how about introducing him to you?”
“Great! I am always interested in handsome young men. But he should be a really handsome guy.” Dou Ya had the nerve to say so, for she was always joking with Xia Xiaoluo.
“Deal! After I get acquainted with other members of the Dance Club, I will show you around. By the way, I will then introduce our president to you!” Xia Xiaoluo poked fun at Dou Ya and she wondered what expression Ouyang Ziqian would have if he knew her plan.
Leaving Dou Ya, Xia Xiaoluo reached FLY Dance Club according to the address given by Ouyang Ziqian.
Pushing the door open, Xia Xiaoluo entered the dancing room and found some girls practicing ballet with several young men seated on one side, being lavish in these dancers’ praise. The dancing room was luxuriously well-equipped. There is no comparison between the dancing room of her middle-high school and this one.
“Hello, everybody! My name is Xia Xiaoluo. I come here for registration.” Xia Xiaoluo greeted those present with all smiles. But unfortunately, they all ignored her. In other words, she was completely neglected.
Xia Xiaoluo shrugged her shoulders helplessly, walking into the back of the dancing room and taking a seat in a corner. She quietly watched these girls dancing, which were not that good from her point of view. If she would make her entrance on the stage, she believed that she would immediately win against them.
Sitting there all by herself, Xia Xiaoluo felt so boring that she decided to walk around, only finding that it was not the only dancing room. Instead, all the rooms on this floor were used as dancing rooms.
“Dear me! It’s really too luxurious! Dwichen’s College is not specialized in dancing, but they should have so many luxuriously decorated dancing rooms. How much money did all these rooms cost? The college for the nobility is truly rich,” spoke Xia Xiaoluo to herself.
Suddenly, in the innermost dancing room, Xia Xiaoluo saw a familiar figure through a French window.
That’s right. It was him, Ouyang Ziqian.
At this moment, Ouyang Ziqian was practicing a waltz alone to the melodic music. His motion, figure, and steps… were all perfect.
Xia Xiaoluo was standing there staring. After the song came to an end, Ouyang Ziqian stopped and picked up the towel to wipe his sweat away. At this moment, he found Xia Xiaoluo standing in the doorway in a trance. All of a sudden, Ouyang Ziqian had a pure smile on his face.
“Xia Xiaoluo, you finally came.” Ouyang Ziqian walked to Xia Xiaoluo.
“Yeah, Senior Ouyang, I have thought twice and realized that I really like dancing. So, I came. Your advice and comments are appreciated.” Xia Xiaoluo grinned and felt extremely happy at the sight of such a handsome young man.
“On behalf of FLY Dance Club, welcome to our club!” Ouyang Ziqian said with a smile.
Ouyang Ziqian took Xia Xiaoluo to the office of FLY Dance Club and gave her a form. “You have to fill in the form. Submit it to me after you finish it.”
“Okay!” Xia Xiaoluo then took out the pen out of her bag and filled in the form carefully. The pen was given by Ling Tianyi.
Finding Xia Xiaoluo using a pen, Ouyang Ziqian could not help asking her, “There are not many students using pens now. Why do you use a pen?”
“Because my handwriting is really bad. I use a pen to practice my handwriting.” Xia Xiaoluo answered Ouyang Ziqian’s question as she was filling in the form.
Hearing what she said, Ouyang Ziqian walked behind Xia Xiaoluo. At the sight of Xia Xiaoluo’s very bad handwriting, he could not help smiling, “Indeed, your handwriting is not good. But as long as you persist in practice, you will definitely achieve improvement.”
“Well, I hope so.” Finishing these words, Xia Xiaoluo continued to fill in the form.
Ouyang Ziqian rummaged around among the bookshelf in the office, finding out several notebooks. He had a random read of them.
Finishing the form, Xia Xiaoluo handed it over to Ouyang Ziqian in humble reverence. “Senior Ouyang, would you mind helping me with my form?”
“Okay. It’s good. It’s not an exam. All we need is only your information. So, there’s no right or wrong.” Ouyang Ziqian had a careful looked at Xia Xiaoluo’s registration form and then put it in the archive box of the Dance Club.
Ouyang Ziqian took out a card and handed it over to Xia Xiaoluo, saying, “Xia Xiaoluo, you are now a member of FLY Dance Club. This is the card key to the dancing rooms. You can come to practice when you are free. There are many activities held on campus. So are the opportunities for you to showcase your talent.”
“Yes, Senior Ouyang!” said Xia Xiaoluo taking over the card key, feeling joyful.
“Follow me. Let me give you a tour of the club,” Ouyang Ziqian showed Xia Xiaoluo around while making an introduction to her.
At this moment, Xia Xiaoluo discovered the fact that it was not the entire floor but the whole building that was used for dancing rooms. As for the dance club, FLY Dance Club was not the only club for dancing. There were three other dancing clubs competing with FLY.
“Xiaoluo, have you kept in mind the locations of dancing rooms, the office, locker rooms, and bathrooms?” asked Ouyang Ziqian after the visit.
“Yes, I have. Senior Ouyang, then when do we usually practice dancing? Or, we do the practice alone?” Xia Xiaoluo asked. She really minded the indifference from those ballet dancers, but it would not matter much if they were not members of FLY Dance Club.
“Many dances require cooperation among dancers. We will hold a meeting for all members at 4 o’clock this afternoon, that is, the third class. You should be on time for that. The place for the meeting is in the room where I practiced dancing just now.” Ouyang Ziqian said.
“Okay, I have no classes this afternoon. Then I will stay here until 4 o’clock to attend the meeting.” Xia Xiaoluo was so eager to dance at this moment. Besides, she had a little wish that she could have a chance to dance with the handsome young man for a song.
“Good! But I have to go immediately to the classroom for the first and second classes in the afternoon. You can get familiar with the environment here. If you want to dance, just do that in any dancing room that left vacant by scanning your card key. The innermost three rooms on the second floor and all the rooms on the third floor belong to us,” said Ouyang Ziqian. Actually, he would like to accompany this freshman of high intelligence. But there was a very important class on economics this afternoon, which he must attend and listen intently.
Hearing that Ouyang Ziqian was leaving, Xia Xiaoluo felt a little upset. But soon she smiled and said, “Okay, I got it. I will practice in the dancing room. Senior Ouyang, if you have a class to attend, then hurry up in case you will be late. Don’t worry about me!”
“Well, contact me if you have any need. My phone number is on the invitation card I gave you before,” said Ouyang Ziqian.
“Okay, got it! Then see you later!” Xia Xiaoluo said goodbye to Ouyang Ziqian and returned to the dancing room alone. Looking into the mirror, she casually practiced some dance movements.
“Haha, you’re really ugly! Piggy Xia Xiaoluo, you stupid, should come here dancing. My gosh! It’s extremely funny! Haha…” Fang Ruichen’s voice and waves of laughter were in Xia Xiaoluo’s ears as if the ghosts remained.
