The Unexpected Rise Before My Exit from the Entertainment Industry

Chapter 88: Dance Class



Chapter 88

Song Ye naturally had no objection, and turned to look at Qin Wei, which was equivalent to seeking her opinion.

Qin Wei didn't speak, and consciously walked out of the team and went to the front.

Song Ye also knew about her situation, and had no grievances. He didn't intend to make things difficult for Qin Wei:

"You may not be able to keep up with the song yet. I'll beat the rhythm for you, just dance along. Don't worry, I'll lower the difficulty."

After speaking, Song Ye started beating the rhythm:

"One two three walk,

Two two three raise your hand, turn around, jump!

Touch your head, bend down, get up!

Step in place..."

Qin Wei followed along with everything, without making a single mistake.

"She really is great. Miss Lin Qiqi didn't underestimate her. Her moves are solid, her rhythm is on point, and the transitions are very smooth.

To be honest, she has exceeded my expectations already."

Song Ye applauded Qin Wei. Although the dance wasn't difficult, there were a lot of moves.

From the start of class until now, he had only taught for half an hour, so he didn't expect anyone to remember everything perfectly in one go. He just hoped everyone could remember the gist to facilitate him later honing every single move.

"Teacher Song Ye, you're underestimating our Weiwei!

You didn't say that you would slow down and remind her of the moves when she performed, so who wouldn't be able to do it?

Teacher, you don't believe in Weiwei's skills!"

After Lin Qiqi spoke, several people around her also nodded in agreement. Lin Qiqi looked very smug, apparently many people were as skeptical of Qin Wei as she was.

Song Ye wasn't stupid. Their implication was for Qin Wei to try it again at normal speed without any reminders.

"Do you guys really think it's simple?"

Song Ye asked back.

Wang Yuewen said:

"Teacher, let Weiwei try it again."

Several others echoed in agreement, as if they had discussed this beforehand.

Song Ye didn't speak. Qin Wei thought to herself that this wouldn't be too difficult for her anyway. She had memorized the moves after all, so she said to Song Ye:

"Then I'll do it again."

Song Ye pressed his lips together:

"No rush, Miss Wang Yuewen, please come up and demonstrate first!"

Wang Yuewen was stunned. The confidence she had earlier was gone in an instant, and her voice lacked backbone:

"I...remembered everything, but I'm not very familiar with it yet..."

Song Ye crooked his finger:

"No problem, I'll remind you of the moves and keep the beat."

There were no more excuses. Wang Yuewen glanced at Lin Qiqi, then walked up.

Song Ye still kept the beat, just like before, deliberately slowing down and reminding her of the moves. Even so, she had a hard time keeping up with the rhythm. She had to pause and think every time they switched moves.

Later on, she had forgotten most of the moves already.

"Too many moves, too little time. I can't remember everything..."

Although unwilling to admit it, this was the truth. Wang Yuewen didn't even know how to fake the rest of the moves.

Song Ye held her and Qin Wei to the same standard. The results were clear to anyone with eyes.

Lin Qiqi raised her hand:

"Teacher, I'll go!"

Song Ye naturally welcomed everyone to come up and demonstrate.

So it started again, beating the rhythm and giving reminders for the third time.

"One two three walk,

Two two three raise your hand, turn around, jump!

Touch your head, bend down, get up!

Step in place..."

Lin Qiqi also smoothly completed all the moves. Not only was her dancing on par with Qin Wei, she even added appropriate expressions to each move. In this regard, she was possibly better than Qin Wei.

Song Ye was very fair. Lin Qiqi did well, although he didn't really like her arrogance. But he would still give praise where it's due:

"Qiqi did great. I hope everyone can learn from her."

Lin Qiqi was even more smug, even giving Qin Wei a provocative look.

After the dance video was sent out yesterday, Lin Qiqi had watched it over and over under her covers, spending hours just to memorize the moves. On top of having some dance foundation already, she was of course better than a complete newbie.

The others applauded Lin Qiqi. As she was enjoying the applause and about to step down, she was stopped by Qin Wei:

"Why don't we do it together again!?"

At this point in the broadcast, the comments were:

【Is Qin Wei going to have a dance battle with Lin Qiqi?】

【Battle? Fight? Catfight?】

【Ah yes, just battle! I'm too lazy to switch input methods... Don't get hung up on this word! Did Qin Wei get full of herself after some praise from the teacher? She's a dance newbie but Lin Qiqi isn't! She thinks just completing the moves makes her on par? You guys only did the slowed-down version!】

【It's like if you can score 100 by luck, but the other person can get full marks because the test is only out of 100】

【I predicted this outcome and am already feeling the cringe】

【Goose Lu, don't do anything silly. It's rare not to embarrass yourself, don't go looking for humiliation...】

【Yeah, Sis Qin, you know skills require expertise right? Some technical stuff isn't meant for us comedians...】

...

Everyone quieted down. Lin Qiqi stopped in her tracks and turned to look at Qin Wei, seemingly unable to believe those words came out of her mouth.

But on second thought, she revealed a dazzling smile—

It seems after some praise from the teacher, Qin Wei has lost her bearings. Since when did she become so naive?

"Sure, Teacher Song Ye, please beat the rhythm aga..."

"No need."

Qin Wei interrupted her and turned on the stereo, then pressed another button on the remote control. The melody of "Sailing Afar" echoed in the classroom.

"Let's just use the accompaniment!"

Including Song Ye and Lin Qiqi, everyone was stunned. They had only practiced for half an hour or so. Even the slowed-down version they still couldn't remember clearly, yet Qin Wei was already attempting the normal speed accompaniment!??

This segment of the broadcast also greatly exceeded the audience's expectations. They thought Qin Wei only wanted to squabble with the other party, but didn't expect she would engage in real battle?

Comments:

【Holy crap! Qin Wei has challenged Lin Qiqi! I don't understand this move】

【I get it. Qin Wei wants to drag Lin Qiqi down with her to embarrass themselves together, but she herself isn't afraid of embarrassment, so the only one embarrassed would be Lin Qiqi!】

【??? The above perspective is so unique, I admire it】

【Well said, now I understand too. As long as I don't feel embarrassed, the embarrassment is on other people】

【I understand now too. Qin Wei wants mutual destruction with Lin Qiqi】

【What's going on, I don't have the courage to hit play. I'm afraid as soon as Qin Wei starts dancing, the floor in my home will be clawed through by my toes!】

【Is Goose Lu firmly set on the comedian path now? I'm a little worried for her future acting roles...】

【Hahahahaha... Qin Wei's daily antics have begun!】

On this side of the classroom, the music started playing. Seeing Qin Wei already in position waiting for the beat, Lin Qiqi also had no choice but to stand ready with her.

But Lin Qiqi's expression had already turned very ugly. She said in a voice just above a whisper:

"Qin Wei, what's wrong with you? This part will definitely be aired, we absolutely can't dance to it. You won't be embarrassed but I will be!"

Qin Wei didn't speak, only turning to give her a faint smile.

With the strong beat ringing out, their dance officially began.
