“I…” Qin Yan, who was called out, had a stiff smile, then waved her hand, “I’m going to congratulate Qin Ke.”
“Oh, you should, then you go.”
“Okay.”
Qin Yan quickly walked towards the dressing room.
****
Backstage, outside the dressing room.
“You guys were just too perfect!” Gu Xinqing excitedly grabbed Qin Ke, her eyes shining with excitement.
“Especially the last node, the piano sound suddenly stopped, and you also suddenly stopped–that moment I felt my breath stop, and then the continuation of the fall was simply perfect, there was no such thing in the teaching video, right? How did you guys come up with it!”
Qin Ke was shaken until her head was a bit dizzy.
Until she heard the last sentence, her eyes moved slightly. Looking up, Qin Ke looked at the young man who was leaning there with one hand in his pocket next to the stage equipment that was messily placed not far away.
It seemed that he noticed her gaze in the first place, and that person suddenly looked up and met her gaze.
A few seconds later, Huo Jun showed her a light and slightly malicious smile.
Qin Ke averted her eyes, helplessly. “That was not our design.”
The excited Gu Xinqing suddenly paused, “…huh? What do you mean?”
Qin Ke: “That was Huo Jun’s mistake–I’m not clear about the specific reason, he suddenly stopped playing.”
Gu Xinqing: “…”
Gu Xinqing widened her eyes, “And then you guys just continued a perfect curtain call like your hearts are linked?!”
Qin Ke frowned, then half-jokingly opened her mouth.
“I disagree with your use of the phrase ‘hearts are linked’.”
“Mother, Keke, you are already a goddess in my heart! What kind of god-like reaction and on-the-spot performance is this!”
Gu Xinqing ran away excitedly–
“No way, I have to broadcast this godly save!”
“Hey…”
Qin Ke’s outstretched arm caught nothing.
Before she could stop her, Gu Xinqing had already run away like a little madwoman.
A moment later, Huo Jun came to Qin Ke.
He lightly raised his eyes, “Over a summer vacation, you seem to have changed a lot.”
“…!”
Just thinking about getting past it, Qin Ke shivered all over, almost subconsciously looking up at Huo Jun.
But Huo Jun didn’t notice.
He was looking at the stage with his body sideways, the stage had already changed to the next program, but his retina seemed to still retain the girl’s light and bright, soft and powerful dance…and the raw clumsiness he had seen before was completely different.
“Did we… know each other before the summer vacation?”
Qin Ke forced herself to calm down, asked with a slightly restrained expression.
Huo Jun turned back.
His eyes narrowed slightly, and the black pupils were shining with indistinguishable emotions.
“It was me who knew you.”
“?”
Qin Ke was taken aback.
Huo Jun: “At the end of last summer, I saw you dancing in that small grove in the southwest.”
He paused, and chuckled lightly.
“Dancing while crying, it was ugly.”
Qin Ke: “…”
Although the real memory was many years ago, Qin Ke still knew which day Huo Jun was talking about–the anniversary of her biological parents’ death.
In her previous life, every time that day came, she would find a quiet corner by herself and dance a dance, hoping that they could see it in heaven.
But she didn’t know until she died in her previous life…
Huo Jun had seen it too.
—
So, by this point in time, he had been noticing her for over a year?
“Who are you thinking about?”
Suddenly a voice approached her ear.
Qin Ke came back to her senses, looked up, and saw Huo Jun, who had suddenly darkened his expression at some point.
There was a fierce emotion in his black eyes.
He leaned over and forced her against the door of the dressing room, his forehead veins slightly bulging.
His voice also darkened.
“Who were you crying for that day–Qin Ke?”
Qin Ke: “…”
Here it comes again.
