Chapter 385: Performance
For the first team-building outing of their lives, and with a group of people playing such a novel game, the students' enthusiasm was at an all-time high.
Worried that everyone might not be familiar with the rules of the game, Yu Youwei demonstrated it once first.
Then the game officially began.
The first student called out 48, and Yu Youwei said 48-100.
The second student called out: "56"
"56-100"
"82"
"56-82"
"72-74"
In this way, it quickly reached Shen Yan's side.
Before Shen Yan was Chen Shanni, and behind him was Wu Yue'er; one of the three was bound to be the winner, so Yu Youwei pointed the microphone at Chen Shanni.
"74"
She said this number.
Chen Shanni's heart felt like it was about to jump out of her throat.
She prayed frantically inside, hoping she wouldn't be the one to win.
However...
Fate always likes to play jokes on people; the things you least want to happen often happen just like that, catching one off guard.
Yu Youwei smiled and lit up her phone screen: "Shanni, congratulations on winning the grand prize. Come up and perform a show for everyone."
The students gave face and applauded.
They cheered Chen Shanni on.
Chen Shanni was completely unprepared and hadn't expected to be the first one to win.
At this very moment, her mind went blank, and she subconsciously grabbed Shen Yan's sleeve for help.
"Your voice is so beautiful, just go up and sing a song," Shen Yan encouraged with a smile.
"I'm not ready yet!"
Looking at Chen Shanni's panicked expression, Shen Yan was also helpless.
So he stood up and walked to the center of the floor: "Our little rich girl is a bit shy, so I'll lead the charge for the first round."
"Whoo!"
Jeers and cheers erupted from the crowd.
This was only because the two had been acting too ambiguous lately, and with Wu Yue'er added to the mix, the three were inseparable all day long.
Wu Yue'er was one thing; she had become buddies with Shen Yan a long time ago.
But Chen Shanni had joined later.
When she was with Shen Yan, there was quite a sense of mutual affection, making it hard not to let one's imagination run wild.
Now that Shen Yan had stepped up to perform in Chen Shanni's place, the signal represented was very clear.
If they were just good friends, there would be no need to go to such lengths.
Tang Song's voice carried a teasing tone: "This doesn't seem to follow the rules. In what capacity are you substituting for the little rich girl?"
Lin Yang: "Yeah! Friends aren't allowed to substitute."
Yuan Mingqing: "Agreed!"
"Agreed!"
Facing the ambiguous gazes all around, Chen Shanni wished she could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
Had she known it would be like this, she would have been better off biting the bullet and going up herself.
She forced herself to stay calm and put on an indifferent expression, silently reciting the three barriers Shen Yan had taught her.
None of my business, none of your business, none of his business.
After reciting it no less than ten times, Chen Shanni's state of mind finally calmed down slowly.
Shen Yan's skin was as thick as a city wall, so he naturally wasn't bothered by these voices. He said firmly: "The young lady is thin-skinned and embarrassed to go up first. Why are you people making such a fuss? Keep your eyes wide open; others wouldn't even find the chance to watch me perform."
Everyone was just joking around, and they were quite tolerant toward a shy and timid young girl.
Besides, that was Shen Yan's performance, and everyone held twelve-tenths of anticipation.
They didn't say anything more.
The background music drifted out from the speakers.
Shen Yan followed it by showing off his Moonwalk. His movements were light and elegant; every step was like walking on clouds, silky and smooth, giving people a magical visual effect of walking while actually moving backward.
Then, linking in other fancy moves—180-degree spins, 360-degree spins, side slides, stationary slides, and backward slides—presented in alternation and combined with matching body movements, the visual effect was explosive.
"Whoo!"
"Damn! Old Shen is too cool!"
"No wonder he's called the Hangda Dance King; these moves are just too silky."
The students below watched without blinking.
Although everyone had seen videos of Shen Yan doing the Moonwalk, only by witnessing it in person did they truly realize how charismatic Shen Yan was when dancing high-end dance for real.
Wen Yali was full of emotion: "No wonder Shen Yan is so popular with girls. He has looks and talent, and his charm is boundless. Which girl could see him and not be moved?"
Huang Shuren, beside her, couldn't help but feel a bit jealous: "No way, you're several years older than him."
"So what if I'm a few years older? It's just that his standards are too high and he doesn't fancy me; otherwise, I'd definitely dump you and throw myself at him like a moth to a flame." A hint of playfulness appeared in Wen Yali's eyes.
Huang Shuren shook his head with a bitter smile and said nothing.
After this, the atmosphere at the scene was pushed directly to its climax. When Shen Yan left the floor, the applause was as continuous as the tide, and Wu Yue'er couldn't help but suggest: "Hubby, when can we go on stage and dance together again?"
Shen Yan nodded indifferently: "Let's wait for an opportunity; I haven't heard of any parties being held recently anyway."
"Then it's a deal!"
Wu Yue'er was instantly overjoyed; she really enjoyed the feeling of her and Shen Yan dancing passionately on stage while the audience below gasped, especially the Yanyue CP fans in the school, as they were the most loyal fan group for the two of them.
Sometimes one has to give them some benefits, right?
The game continued.
As the students successively "laid eggs," they came to the center of the venue one after another.
They began to perform their signature skills for everyone.
There was Tang Song, who specifically brought a guitar to show off his technique, and He Hongliang, who played the leaves...
Afterwards, it was Wu Yue'er's turn.
She went up and showed off a dance she had learned from the Dance Club.
Not to mention, although Huniu couldn't tell left from right, she was quite talented in dancing, plus she was wearing denim shorts.
The screen was full of long legs, as well as her enchanting and full body curves.
Every gesture and movement fully displayed feminine grace.
It made the men off-stage feel surging emotions, and quite a few of them squeezed their thighs together and bowed slightly.
To hide their embarrassment.
Clearly, what Wu Yue'er danced wasn't some erotic dance, but just a simple glance back or a twist of the hips could always make the boys' hearts flutter.
The title of "Most Beautiful School Beauty" was well-deserved.
Returning to her seat, Wu Yue'er couldn't wait to ask Shen Yan: "Hubby, how do you think I danced?"
Shen Yan nodded slightly: "The dance was good, it's just that I'm worried that if one day some pervert can't help himself and tries to force himself on you, I really wouldn't even have a place to cry."
"Giggle giggle!"
This sentence was undoubtedly the greatest affirmation of a woman's beauty; hearing it, other women might feel a sense of trepidation, but Wu Yue'er didn't mind at all.
Because she believed that Shen Yan would protect her well.
"Hubby, you will protect me well, right?" Wu Yue'er asked with a grin.
"Protection is a given, but you'd better dress more conservatively when you go out alone in the future; it's better to be safe than sorry."
Wu Yue'er obediently agreed.
A woman dresses for the one who delights her; she wasn't someone who liked to flirt, and if it weren't for wanting to dress for Shen Yan to see and make Shen Yan like her more, she wouldn't dress so revealingly and let those stinky men feast their eyes.
