Under the call of Teacher Lin Linda, the students in the dance studio quickly gathered around Teacher Chen Mingwei, forming a neat line. Jingxuan intended to quietly stand at the edge of the crowd, not wanting to draw too much attention, but Teacher Lin Linda seemed to have other plans.
The teacher grabbed Jingxuan by the arm and pulled her into the center of everyone's attention. She loudly introduced, "Everyone, although we are about to participate in a performance soon, today we have a new friend joining us. This is Liu Jingxuan, from Cuigu University, and she was previously a student at Beixing High School. She is looking to re-enter the world of dance and is here today to observe and learn from us. Let's show her our dance troupe's style and strength. Everyone, let's do our best!"
With Mr. Lin's introduction, the atmosphere in the classroom instantly became enthusiastic, and the students' attention focused on Jingxuan, with curious and friendly looks. Some students smiled and nodded, seemingly welcoming Jingxuan's joining.
Jingxuan felt a bit awkward, as she was not used to being the center of attention. She lowered her head gently, smiled, and nodded to show her gratitude and response. Although she felt a bit nervous, she also felt the warmth and acceptance from her new companions.
At this moment, Teacher Lin Linda turned around and said to Jingxuan, "Jingxuan, today you will be our special audience. Observe and feel our enthusiasm and professionalism. If you have any questions or want to learn anything, feel free to ask us."
Under Teacher Lin Linda's arrangement, the members of the dance troupe began to busy themselves, preparing various props needed for the afternoon performance. The classroom was filled with vitality and liveliness as everyone made their final preparations for the upcoming performance.
Classmates began to move various equipment, including some traditional Chinese drums, soft pads, and a huge red vertical board with a round hole in the middle for people to pass through, obviously specially made for the dance "Carp Leaping Over the Dragon Gate." In addition, there were firecrackers and some delicate props, all essential parts of the performance.
Jingxuan took the initiative to join the moving team and lent a hand. She followed the footsteps of other classmates, helping to move the props downstairs, ready to be loaded onto the car. Under the direction of teacher Lin Linda, everything proceeded in an orderly manner.
Props for the performance were loaded onto two separate vehicles. One vehicle was driven by Teacher Lin Linda, mainly carrying the performance props and equipment, while the other was driven by Teacher Chen Mingwei, carrying the students who were going to perform. Both vehicles were heading to the performance venue to prepare for the upcoming opening ceremony at the park.
After all the props and equipment were loaded onto the vehicles, the members of the dance troupe gathered in front of the hot pot restaurant, preparing to depart for the performance venue. Outside the restaurant, the plump owner was standing at the door smoking, with a hint of appreciation and concern in his eyes as he watched the busy figures of these young people.
The boss looked at the busy teacher Lin Linda and jokingly said, "Teacher, are you going to perform again!" His tone revealed familiarity and friendliness towards Teacher Lin and the dance troupe members.
Teacher Lin Linda responded, "Yes! Do you want to come and watch?" Her voice was full of energy and invitation.
The boss laughed heartily and replied, "Come on, we still have to keep the shop open. What are you looking at? How about I cook hot pot for you first, and you can come back to enjoy it later." His words were filled with humor and care.
Lin Linda The teacher also laughed and agreed, "Great, thank you so much!" With that, the boss put out his cigarette, waved his hand, and walked back into the shop to prepare the hot pot for the evening.
At this moment, Teacher Lin Linda turned to Jingxuan and waved for her to get in the car: "Jingxuan, come, ride with me in this car." Jingxuan cautiously walked towards Teacher Lin's car.
As Teacher Lin Linda skillfully started the vehicle, the engine emitted a low and steady roar, filling the car with a sense of the passage of time. Jingxuan sat in the passenger seat, carefully observing this slightly old car. The interior decor and dust revealed the traces of frequent use, but also showed the owner's care for it.
The back seat was filled with dance props of all kinds, neatly arranged in preparation for the upcoming performance. Teacher Lin Linda's movements appeared skilled and confident as she gently turned the steering wheel, guiding the car out of the parking lot and towards the performance venue.
Teacher Lin Linda's driving skills were smooth and proficient, and she occasionally chatted with Jingxuan, trying to lighten the mood. She talked about the dance troupe's history, her expectations for the students, and her passion for dance. As Jingxuan listened to Teacher Lin's words, the nervousness in his heart gradually diminished, replaced by a pure love for dance.
The car finally arrived at the location of the park opening ceremony. When Jingxuan got off the car, she took a deep breath, and before her eyes was a lively scene. The car driven by teacher Chen Mingwei happened to park nearby, and as the car door opened, a group of energetic students got off one after another, their faces full of anticipation and excitement. Without hesitation, Jingxuan joined them and began unloading props from teacher Lin Linda's car.
Classmates quickly gathered to help, and everyone worked together to transport various dance props to a tent specially set up in the park. These props included Chinese drums, mats, as well as a large red vertical board and other small props used for the performance of "Carp Leaping Over the Dragon Gate."
Inside the tent, the classmates began their final preparations. Some were adjusting their costumes, some were practicing dance moves, and others were putting on makeup. The entire tent was filled with a busy and orderly atmosphere. Everyone was making their final efforts for the upcoming performance.
