Chapter 51: I Want to Die, I Want to Die, I Want to Die
At this moment, the live room was full of excitement and voices.
“Can’t stand it anymore! I am also a pretty girl, I also want to be close to Honey Qing!”
“You better just be friends!”
“Ugh! A group of women not behaving properly! Listen to me carefully, no getting close!”
“You deserve this slap! Put your pants on! Do you want to trip me?!”
These outrageous words that would make Chu Yuanqing faint did not affect the atmosphere in the practice room.
Zhao Dapan let the trainees interact for a while, then clapped his hands to signal the end of the break, randomly calling a contestant to come up and sing, resolving someone’s current predicament.
Chu Yuanqing breathed a sigh of relief, obediently staying quiet in the corner, blinking her eyes as she watched the other contestants sing.
Although these 8 trainees are only Grade C, the Grade A players usually choose weaker ones. They can stay because they are good in all aspects.
And the fact has also proved this point,
These girls clearly worked hard last night, they are very skilled at singing “Candy”, much better than they showed yesterday.
Because of their basic training, they have studied voice, breathing, and breath control quite well. When they took turns singing, none of them had a pure white voice like hers, they all could transform their voices into sweet and lovely tones.
Their only flaw is that they have poor ability to handle pressure. If there is a slight mistake causing interruption, they will visibly become nervous. It’s difficult for them to calm down, but because the lyrics and melody are simple, they can stumble through smoothly by just feeling their way through.
Chu Yuanqing is quite admiring and somewhat emotional.
The more she learns about idols, the more she understands the cruelty of the competition format.
These trainees who take the risk of never stepping onto the stage of “Dazzling Stage”, their awareness, dreams, beliefs, and willpower are much purer compared to regular talent shows.
As someone like her who has no obsession with the stage, she doesn’t even have the qualifications to compete on the same stage as these children.
Chu Yuanqing felt more and more ashamed. She secretly made up her mind to find a chance to slip away, get the money, pay the insurance, and then start dealing with what was behind her.
You see, although she could use magic to reshape the core of the magical girl into its original form before death, making the corpse look flawless.
However, some insurance companies hire detective teams to investigate and prevent fraud. If you want to deceive these professional teams, you need to carefully consider how you died!
Time passed by.
After Zhao Dapan had the trainees take turns singing “Candy,” he broke it down into parts and pointed out a few things they needed to pay more attention to. He then announced the end of the class and allowed them to practice freely.
This was as everyone had expected. Singing “Candy” wasn’t very difficult, so those with some basic skills didn’t need the teacher to guide them all the time.
But when it came to dancing, that’s where everyone needed to focus more on in their training.
The singing class quickly ended. Chen Baijiu, wearing a fisherman’s hat, lazily walked into the room with a female assistant beside him, who was specially there to correct movements without attracting suspicion, and began the lesson.
Chu Yuanqing did not just go along for the ride.
Although she really wanted to participate, with her poor dancing skills, if she didn’t study hard, she might drag down other dedicated contestants in the big performance after the secondary rating. If a stage accident happened, it would be even worse.
Worried about gaining too many fans from her great performance?
Chu Yuanqing wasn’t worried about that at all.
As the saying goes, practice makes perfect. Despite being deprived of 99.9% of blessings and having a soul even weaker than ordinary people in today’s world, apart from some magical tricks, she was no different from others. Why should she outshine those young girls who love the stage?
Laughable, even a Grade D dancer in ‘Dazzling Stage’ can dance better than her with ease.
So she never thought about studying hard and dancing too well.
Chu Yuanqing even thought that worrying about this was a form of arrogance.
As expected, in the dance class, she clearly couldn’t keep up with the learning pace of the other eight people.
Initially, she was okay with spending two hours slowly getting familiar with breaking down movements.
Afterwards, when they officially divided the dance into parts and started practicing together, Chen Baijiu couldn’t sit still. For the next long two hours, he couldn’t stop criticizing:
“Your movements are too stiff.”
“Chu Yuanqing, where is your coordination on stage?”
“The dance ‘Candy’ is all about showcasing a girly and lovable style, it’s not tai chi or military training!”
“You can’t even keep up with such a simple beat, what will you do when singing and dancing?”
“Pay attention to controlling your breathing!”
“Don’t keep a straight face, show some expressions! This is a girl group dance, facial expressions are the basics, let’s start with smiling!”
Compared to the disappointing performance on this side, the other contestants, though not perfect, were able to keep up with the teaching progress successfully.
After only participating in two practice sessions, Chu Yuanqing was taken out like a little animal. With the help of a female assistant, she started training all alone, in a scene that was both awkward and amusing.
The bullet comments in the live stream were full of laughter, which seemed very joyful.
However, some people questioned this performance, believing that with such poor dance skills, one was not qualified to participate in a global idol project. This led to a heated argument with others.
Unaware of the outside distractions, Chu Yuanqing struggled to keep up with the beat, clumsily dancing the choreography she had just learned, breaking it down into parts.
Unlike the cool and neutral street dance moves, these movements were a mix of jazz with isolations, leaning towards sweet and cute classic girl group dance style.
While she managed the inward and outward movements well, the hip twisting, head turning, intricate hand gestures, and even the precise wink were completely beyond her comfort zone!
The female assistant teacher played the role of a merciless rhythm machine, giving off a haunting vibe with the beats resembling a nightmare, gradually turning the sweet style of “Candy” into a monstrous creature in her mind.
Chu Yuanqing felt an intense sense of shame, her body going numb, her skin feeling sticky, as if being punished. She lost control of her limbs, unable to even access her dance routine “Heart Flow,” her brain on the verge of shutting down.
Want to die, want to die, want to die.
I really want to die, really want to die, really want to die.
Is she really going to dance this thing in front of everyone?
If Little Shu sees her, she would definitely feel so embarrassed that she might disappear on the spot!
Darn it, no matter what, making a middle-aged man dance this thing is just too much, isn’t it?!
Even though her inner despair overflowed, her eyes gradually became empty like a puppet.
This retired savior, still with a strong will, managed to get through the whole class.
Chu Yuanqing’s back was soaked with sweat, her head buzzing as she stood in the center of the dance studio. She gradually regained her spirits as if reborn, blinking her long eyelashes, like a migratory bird waiting to return home, awaiting the moment Chen Baijiu announced the dismissal.
In the next second,
“Dream Weaver Rabbit said that in order to rehearse for the performance, everyone’s costumes need a little change.”
The mentor clapped his hands, pointing to the box brought in by the smart robot, and smilingly uttered a declaration more terrifying than a devil, more dreadful than a natural disaster, more terrifying than a monster, more hopeless than a comrade’s betrayal:
“For example, a short skirt.”
