“This girl is really fiesty…” Du Gumo muttered to himself after watching Long Wu’s entire perform, with a cup of vodka in one hand. The latter lept off the high platform gracefully after her performance ended.
Du Gumo went back to his hotel after 3pm. In his room, he bingewatched six hours of TV. By the time he switched off the TV, he was sick of all the available channels. Since he had nothing to do, he left the hotel. He grabbed a waiter to get some reccommendation for places to visit at night for entertainment. The waiter reccommended him SOS Nightclub, this was how he got to know this place.
However, after he reached, the waiters and waitresses in SOS were all casting weird looks at Du Gumo who was clad in a long trenchcoat. He seemed really suspicious so they stopped him from enterring the place no matter what he said. Du Gumo had no choice but to go back to the hotel to get changed before returning to the nightclub again.
Du Gumo was rich from paying social visits to his relatives on a yearly basis, so he was not as inexperienced at interacting with others as Ling Yun, who just travelled through time.
( Boxno vel. co m ) Du Gumo was a freak and he enjoyed wearing long coats because he liked it when people looked at him weirdly.
Last time, he always travelled around with his family members, and there were to many restrains on him. He sneaked out from home partly to acquire the mysterious Earth Emperor Book, and partly to relax and enjoy himself.
After sight-seeing and scouting the Qingshui Lake, the Dragon mountain and the Southern Jade peak in the day, followed by returning to the hotel to watch 6 hours of TV continuously, he decided that he needed a break and a place to relax at.
Du Gumo came to SOS Nightclub ten minutes after Ling Yun arrived. He asked for a booth seat and sat down. He ordered everything from cigarettes to wine to fruits and sat and started watching the dancers.
“Grandpa said the women outside are all tigers, seems like he was not wrong…”
Du Gumo was stunned for a while after Long Wu ended her performanced, before he started to shake his head in admiration.
…
In a secluded corner in the nightclub, Miao Xiaomiao who was in a s.e.xy leather dress, had been sitting there quietly, alone.
The corner area was low and dark. In the center of the nightclub, there were clubbers swaying slowly to the beat of the music, these people blocked of the view for the corner seats completely. This was why Ling Yun and Cao Shanshan missed her when they first entered.
MIao Xiaomiao was invited by the depressed Zhang Ling. After knowing that Cao Shanshan was going to have a date with Ling Yun that night, her emotions had been down and she started crying in her seats the moment Cao Shanshan left the cla.s.sroom
Now that she was hundred percent sure she liked Ling Yun, she had to watch her crush date her best friend. Even though this was partially because of herself, but she still could not stop the hurt feelings and sadness in her heart.
Miao Xiaomiao and Zhang Ling were currently deskmates. They had become good friends and she decided to comfort her and accompanied her to this nightclub, but it was not long before she too sank into the sea of sadness due to influence from the upset Zhang Ling.
Right now, Zhang Ling was dancing amongst the crowd, she swayed along with the rest of the people to the slow beat, trying her best to let out her repressed emotions and endless sadness.
Miao Xiaomiao could not find Zhang Ling amongst the ma.s.sive crowd. She crossed her leg in the booth seat and sighed, “It’s been an hour since he started dancing… doesn’t she get tired?”
The handsome and smirking face of Ling Yun surfaced in Miao Xiaomiao’s mind. He was always smiling in her memory. She frowned and thought to herself, “Is it possible it’s you?”
Miao Xiaomiao watched as Long Wu went back to her booth seat, and her eyes moved to the five bodyguards behind Long Wu, before she finally s.h.i.+fted her gaze away.
At 23:20, the soothing music started. Almost all of the clubbers left the dance area, leaving behind a small portion who stayed to dance.
The area was much emptier than before.
People who came to this place frequently all knew that the REAL show would begin in SOS after half an hour of soothing music.
“Xiaomiao, give me a cup of drink. I’m dying of thirst!”
Zhang Ling ran back sweating profusely, she looked like she just took a shower. Her short hair was dripping wet, and it seemed like there was hot steam radiating off her. The moment she saw Miao Xiaomiao, she asked for water immediately.
“Finally danced enough?” Miao Xiaomiao opened a bottle of mineral water and handed it to Zhang Ling, smiling as she asked.
Under the lights, the smiling Miao Xiaomiao was extremely gorgeous, even Zhang Ling was stunned by her beauty.
She downed half a bottle of the water, before finally sitting down and replying, “I’m going to go back there again later and dance until I drop! Not going home until then!”
Miao Xiaomiao looked at Zhang Ling who seemed to be out of his mind, and did not say anything. She was going to stay and accompany Zhang Ling no matter how late the latter would stay, and she would send her home to rest afterwards.
…
The soothing music began, Cao Shanshan excitedly asked Ling Yun, “Wanna go and dance?”
Ling Yun had mastered everything, of course he was going to dance with her. He smiled brightly and lifted his hand politely, allowing Cao Shanshan to rest her hand on his. He led her out of the lounge and the duo went down the steps, and onto the dance floor.
The lights were magical and the music was silky and soft. Ling Yun had one hand holding Cao Shanshan’s small fair hand, and the other on her flexible thin waist. The duo exchanged an emotional look, and began their heavenly dance routine.
Cao Shanshan had not been bragging! Now that her true dance forms were showing, everyone could see the elegance, pride and dreaminess of a lady from a prestigious family!
The duo was quick to slide into the centre of the dancefloor. The people they pa.s.sed by all subconsciously made way for them, and the duo soon had a very large s.p.a.ce for them to dance freely in the middle of the dancefloor.
People who enjoyed dance more or less would understand the skills and theories behind dance performances. Everyone could tell from their movement that these two were no ordinary dancers. A crowd started forming as more and more people stopped dancing to watch them dance.
Even though Ling Yun was new to this, Cao Shanshan was an exemplary dancer taught by a professional dancer. Even though she was not wearing the proper Rumba dance wear, every twist, every hip movement and every kick was done in Ling Yun’s arms with perfection! It was flawless!
Their eyes were locked, thoughts were being exchanged. Cao Shanshan did not stop twirling, and her pet.i.te body formed all sorts of elegant and fluent actions with Ling Yun. She was like a happy little bird, soaring freely in the sky.
Everytime Cao Shanshan shook her hips, the audience would gasp in admiration and surprise. Everyone was shocked at the talented duo.
The nightclub DJs were extremely fast to catch on. They knew that they had legitimate pro dancers here today, and they changed the music to a Rumba track immediately!
This made things even easier for the duo!
“So cool!””So beautiful!””They are so professional!”
More and more people stopped dancing and joined the rest in watch the duo. Some who also knew Rumba were gasping in admiration and shock at how perfect the gorgeous girl was able to execute the different dance movements, and even more at how Ling Yun was able to cooperate seamlessly with her!
Ling Yun and Cao Shansahn did not talk to each other, they did not need to. Everything was conveyed through their dance and their eyes. Cao Shanshan gave Ling Yun full control over her body because she knew, for every leap and every lean that she would do, he would be able to catch her firmly!
This was a dance that charmed everyone.
After this dance, for the rest of Cao Shanshan’s life, everytime she recalled this night, of how she was able to dance without a care, she would cry tears of happiness.
After this dance, all the problems they had were completely dissolved. Cao Shanshan found what she was missing and had been looking for. In fact, she found something greater!
“Oh my! It’s Ling Yun and Cao Shanshan!” Zhang Ling stood on the table upon realizing that there was a commotion, and she identified the duo at one glance!
However, after she saw the duo’s dance, she was no longer feeling heartbroken and down. She felt extremely touched.
As Cao Shanshan’s good friend, Zhang Ling was also good at dancing, and she used to come her to dance with Cao Shanshan in the past. She had never seen Cao Shanshan this happy before!
“Maybe only a girl like Cao Shanshan would be qualified enough to be Ling Yun’s girlfriend…” Zhang Ling thought to herself, and silently wished her friend well. She was no longer sad and moody.
Miao Xiaomiao also stood up in shock after hearing Zhang Ling. She took a step back in shock and stood on a step. She could only see the duo’s torsos from her angle, but it was enough to shock her.
There really existed a level of expertise in dance, where the dance could leave impact on audience’s souls!
“What a great dance! That girl’s movement is perfect. Wow sh*t, that guy…”
Du Gumo was not as restrained as Miao Xiaomiao. He leaped up to the high platform that Long Wu had performed on, and leaned against the pole and watched the duo.
Du Gumo was quick to divert his attention from Cao Shanshan’s dance skills to Ling Yun.”That guy is so strong! I can’t see through him?!”
How was it possible for two people to look so good? How was Cao Shanshan able to be so devoted to the dance?This was because Ling Yun had already gone beyond dancing. He added his own understanding to the dance steps, and included his understanding of Heaven Dao theories that he attained as he trained his mind and body during the time where he was overcoming his heavenly punishment.
Ling Yun was an expert in the path of heart! Once he put his heart into doing something, he became connected with it. He knew exactly how high Cao Shanshan was going to lift her arm, he could even predict her next move! There was no need even for eye contact!
At that moment, Ling Yun let the Cao Shanshan took all the attention, he let her fly and twirl as much as she desired. She was free to express her strong emotions through her body!
Time no longer existed. They forgot about time, about themselves! The only thing they knew was the dance and music!
After twenty-two minutes, the music stopped. The duo ended perfectly on the dot.
There were crystal clear sweat drops all over Cao Shanshan, and she was panting heavily as she collapsed into Ling Yun’s arms. Tears rolled down her cheeks and onto the dance floor!
The entire nightclub was filled with an applause that lasted for an eternity. It was truly a dance that charmed everyone!
