I'm still dancing today

Xia Kaikai's competition was held in the afternoon of the opening ceremony. Ice dance was an unpopular event, and there were only seven groups of contestants participating in the adult competition in the province. There were a little more youth competitions, but the number was also very limited.For the adult group, there are three groups for the provincial team, and three groups come from the only city in province S that has ice dance training, as well as a club player, representing the city's athletes.

The player in this club can only be Gu Feng.

Gu Feng had a problem with the procedures for entering the provincial team of S Province. He was not an athlete of the provincial team until the game, and could only be regarded as a member of the selected training team, so he could only compete under the title of club and city.

This status will not affect Gu Feng's game, but after thinking about it, it is very touching.

Ni Bai went to take pictures of head coach Yu Zhengmao's desk.

Yu Zhengmao didn't take as long to process the card for the ability card. It was the people above who really delayed the progress, and everyone knew who it was.But Ni Bai would rather grind Yu Zhengmao than bow to the pair of master and apprentice.

Because of this incident, when Xia Kaikai went to the arena to warm up in the afternoon, Gu Feng kept a cold face from the beginning to the end, and even Zhou Ziqi didn't have a good face to look at Xia Kaikai.

It's normal for a friend to become an enemy. If you choose a different path, no one knows what your final position will be.Zhou Ziqi, who has successfully partnered with Gu Feng for two months, will naturally not focus on Xia Kaikai anymore. After all, it is not Xia Kaikai but Gu Feng who is polishing her skills every day.

Xia Kaikai just pretended not to see it.

It's just to suppress the formalities, and it's not to prevent people from playing. Gu Feng will enter the provincial team sooner or later, and the second aunt will do this. It's just a warning to Gu Feng, Ni Bai and others not to provoke him.

Xia Kaikai felt it was hard to say if it was a fake tiger, but he would never take the elder's kindness on such a matter.

But Li Qin next to him was obviously a little uneasy, and his eyes stayed on Zhou Ziqi from time to time, looking at Xia Kaikai hesitant to speak.

Xia Kaikai asked her what happened?

She shook her head.

She is a very kind girl, but her sympathy is a bit overwhelming. Such an indecisive character does not fit well with Xia Kaikai who dares to love and hate.

But it's just a partner, not a relationship.

Xia Kaikai didn't care.

He lowered his head and smiled at Li Qin, comforting her, and then gently pushed her out with his hands, doing the final warm-up.

This game is still very important for Xia Kaikai.

Even if it is just a provincial competition, it is also an assessment to check and accept Xia Kaikai's learning achievements during this period.

After all the hard work, he definitely hopes to reap success, and he can't fall before the finish line.

"Let's skate seriously again." Xia Kaikai asked again.

Li Qin nodded, this is a girl who is too embarrassed to refuse others, even though she already wants to take a break.

Xia Kaikai led the person to slide out again. It was not a complete program, but a targeted exercise in step-by-step, rotation and lifting.

Overall, the degree of completion is still very high.

Because the ice dance competition is the first event this afternoon, the competition between the junior group and the youth group was finished in the morning, so currently there are only seven groups of players in the senior group on the ice, which are all the competitors.

The difference in strength between professional and amateur players is indeed clear at a glance.

Xia Kaikai and Li Qin slid forward together, and the next second was three turns of a twirling step. The synchronization was quite high and the quality was very good.

Over there, Gu Feng and Zhou Ziqi are doing lifting exercises.A little further away, Cuan Yiyi and his partner are practicing pattern dance.A little further... The three groups of city team members even forgot their own movements. Not only did they not feel the tension of the game, they even felt like they were watching idols.

"That's the Gu Feng I mentioned. I thought he would be recruited into the national team. It turned out that he entered the provincial team. His partner feels so good, much better than the previous one."

"I like Cuan Yiyi. He finished [-]th in last year's national competitions. His pattern dance was the best, and he was rated as a fourth grade."

"Level [-], when will we be able to slide to this level?"

"I haven't seen that pair before."

"Does anyone know which city they are from?"

"I don't know, I've watched the game videos of all the players in China, but I haven't seen them."

Not to mention the players on the field, even the referee didn't know Xia Kaikai and Li Qin.

But they know a little more than others, and they know that this pair is the top ones selected by the provincial team for this selection training. With only two ice dancing male players, both male players were recruited into the ice dancing team inside.

Thinking about it this way, the referees in the province are inevitably a little anxious. This is the current situation of the ice dance in S province, and they are a little hungry.Seeing the big from the small, there are problems with the ice dancers selected from the grassroots. It is no wonder that the ice dance movement in Huaguo has not been able to develop.

The "National Ice and Snow Sports Association" specially sent two national-level ice dance referees to check the scores of this competition, and the remaining seven referees were provincial referees, and ice dance coaches came to play guest roles.

The provincial competition is so imprecise.

Ni Bai is the coach of the provincial team. With the help of the equipment, it is more than enough to be a referee of a provincial competition. She is sitting on the referee's seat at the moment, looking at Gu Feng expectantly for a while, and looking at Xia Kaikai coldly for a while. keep changing.

The referee sent by the Ice Association was sitting next to Ni Bai. The two were old acquaintances, and they chatted without saying a word: "So many years have passed in a blink of an eye, and now I still remember your first time in the National Ice Dance Competition for Adults. It was amazing to make your debut. At that time, I hadn’t passed the referee’s qualifications. I was just an ordinary employee in the ice association. At that time, I felt that your development must be very extraordinary. Sure enough, after retiring, you became a coach again, selecting talents and educating people. Pass the torch from generation to generation. By the way, you are leading Gu Feng now, right?"

Ni Bai smiled and nodded.

The referee stopped talking, then changed the subject and continued chatting.

When the audience entered the arena, the players with thin skins would leave first.

Xia Kaikai doesn't care about being surrounded by people, and there are not many real spectators. In a venue that can seat 2000 people, the total number of spectators at this moment is less than 200, and 90.00% of them are players from other events who came in advance, and Kinship group.

But Li Qin obviously didn't want to slide anymore, her body started to become stiff, and she made more and more mistakes in her movements. Xia Kaikai frowned slightly, and suddenly remembered something... Li Qin, she shouldn't be afraid of the scene, right?

The members of the provincial team should not be afraid of the field. There are many large and small competitions in the province every year, which is enough for training.Besides, to be able to recruit into the provincial team is to go through five hurdles all the way. Entering the provincial team from the city sports school is not much easier than the provincial team to the national team.

However, the fear field is divided into big fear field and small fear field, and also divided into inertia fear field and fanatical fear field. Also worse.

Dance is a sport that needs to accumulate enough contradictory elements of strength and softness in the body. Ice dance is the same. The storage and release of tango is directly related to the good or bad viewing. It doesn't work if you don't store enough, it's even worse if you don't save enough.

Xia Kaikai didn't force Li Qin to continue warming up under the watchful eyes of the crowd. After they got off the ice together, only the pair of players Cuan Yi was left on the ice.

This pair is still very famous in the province.

Everyone in the audience picked up their phones to take pictures, pretending that the game had started.

Cuan Yiyi was not afraid of the show, and so was his dance partner, their pigtails were swaying, and there were people applauding for them.

When Xia Kaikai returned to his seat, Wen Jian leaned over immediately and handed them towels.

Li Qin waved her hand and said, "I'll go to the back first, and I need to put on makeup."

Xia Kaikai called her to stop, took out the earphones from his backpack and handed them to her: "I'm listening while translating, I'll find you in the back later."

Li Qin patted his pocket, said he had it, and left.

When they walked away, Xia Kaikai asked suddenly: "Do you know Li Qin's previous competition results?"

Wen Jian had been prepared for a long time, and answered all questions: "The youth group is not bad, the province is ranked second or third, and there is no problem in advancing to the national competition. The results of the adult group competition are very average. If she doesn't skate and dance, she should retire. gone."

"It's just slipping and not going back?"

"Her reason is to take the postgraduate entrance examination."

"Public examination?"

"Well, a graduate student in kinesiology, with good grades in cultural subjects."

Xia Kaikai raised his eyebrows. After being reborn to the provincial team, it was the first time someone told him that a certain athlete had done well in culture.To be reasonable, he was reborn for three months, and he still doesn't even know which way the university door opens. When he entered the training team, Wen Jian helped him write a leave note to the team, and the team went to the university to hand it in. He doesn't have to go to school.

Professional athletes under the system are basically no different from illiterates.

Xia Kaikai is also happy and relaxed, at what age do you still need to take the school exam?He is not afraid of English majoring in college, but in fact, reading is not only about English, right?There are other subjects, and Xia Kaikai gets a headache just thinking about it.

I never dreamed that Li Qin was still a top student, especially with good professional ability, he was really a talent.

So, what is the reason for Li Qin's introverted almost timid reaction?

Xia Kaikai couldn't think of a reason, so he missed Mu Yuan a little at this moment.When it comes to looking at people and managing people, some people are blessed, not arrogant, but he does not have that kind of superhuman intuition.

"Let's go, let's change clothes."

After chatting for a while, Xia Kaikai went backstage and saw Li Qin leaning against the wall listening to music.The girl has already changed into the competition uniform. The red mermaid skirt is covered with gold powder, and the inner lining is black. The skirt is open all the way to the thigh. She lowered her head and kept pulling on her skirt, frowning Frown tightly.

As soon as he was about to walk over, he saw Li Qin looking up and greeting someone with a smile. Xia Kaikai then realized that there was a female member of the provincial team standing next to her. He remembered that this player was skating in a pair event, so he didn't know what he was doing here at this time. .What made Xia Kaikai frown was Li Qin who spoke with a smile. After the girl glanced at her, she obviously rolled her eyes and turned away.Li Qin's smile froze there, and then she lowered her head to pull her skirt, the corners of her mouth were tightly pursed, and when Xia Kaikai walked over, she saw the red marks at the end of her eyes.

Xia Kaikai walked to her side, gently took off the headset on one side of her with his fingers, and said, "This dress is very pretty."

Li Qin held the corner of her mouth and smiled, her voice was gentle: "Your ones are not bad either."

Xia Kaikai had already changed into the competition uniform before coming here.

Black vest and trousers, lined with a red shirt, the collar of the deep V shirt reveals Xia Kaikai's chest, and the big lace around the collar is really gaudy and coquettish.

This set of clothes was ordered by Xia Kaikai, and the money was paid by the provincial team, but the two of them each added money to upgrade, otherwise the inferior fabric would be useless.

Xia Kaikai smiled, and raised his hand to brush the other party's hair. The red clothes lined his face was very pale, and his cheeks were rosy, but his long and narrow phoenix eyes were sharp and sharp, making it difficult for people to approach easily.

Xia Kaikai just wanted to smile gently and calm Li Qin's emotions, but after changing his face, he appeared to be very evil, with such a bit of evil energy, it was even more attractive than the sexy and gorgeous women around him. attention.

"Don't pull it, it will break it again." Xia Kaikai pulled Li Qin's wrist and said, "Let's walk again."

Li Qin nodded, very obedient.

Like a marionette.

The game is about to start in 10 minutes. Now the ice is covered with ice, and the referees are seated one by one. All the contestants have returned to the backstage, and they are all crowded in the practice area at the moment.

When Xia Kaikai and Li Qin walked over, the people in the practice area looked over unconsciously, their eyes circled around the two of them, and for some reason, they fixed their eyes on Xia Kaikai.

The clothes are not exaggerated. In fact, Xia Kaikai's clothes are very well-behaved. They just fit the style of tango dance, and they didn't do too much design.But when Xia Kaikai walked, the cluster of red flowers on his chest swayed and swayed, and the deep V neckline loomed to reveal his fair chest, and when paired with that face that had nothing to do with righteousness, it was a bit too glamourous.

A young female player of the city team was holding up a notebook to ask Gu Feng for an autograph, when she saw her notebook sinking, Gu Feng's falling pen tip poked the air.

Cuan Yiyi's female companion next to him said, "Damn it, you also wore this dress the year before last. Why is there such a big difference?"

The girl who wanted to sign the autograph said, "Excellent."

The smile on the corner of Gu Feng's mouth disappeared instantly, and he didn't want to sign at that time.

Xia Kaikai acted like no one else was around, and led Li Qin to warm up in a small area in the preparation area, and then the two of them did some flexibility training separately.

The cold eyes belonging to Gu Feng next to him still drifted over from time to time. When Xia Kaikai saw it occasionally, he thought, is it right to keep such a person who is hostile to him by his side?If it was Mu Yuan, such a person would have disappeared long ago, but he is still very kind.

"Come to draw lots."

The staff came over with a cardboard box and shouted.

Xia Kaikai asked Li Qin to go up to draw lots, seven teams, and they got number seven.

Li Qin was very happy this time and smiled.

In figure skating competitions, the lower the number of draws, the more advantage you have.In small-score games, you can see your opponent's performance in advance, which will help your own schedule, at least for men's singles, women's singles and doubles.

"Xia Kai, look." Li Qin happily handed over the lot and said with a smile, "This is a good sign."

Before Xia Kai could speak, Gufeng's words came over unexpectedly: "No. 1? This is the best. Our provincial team's ice dance techniques are basically the same. The earlier you go up, the more fresh you will feel. After you get tired of watching The referee is critical."

The smile on Li Qin's face disappeared instantly.

Seeing this scene, Xia Kaikai only felt a headache.

What a sensitive girl this is.Wen Jian praised her for her delicateness, but it's not wonderful to be so delicate.

Gu Feng and the players from the first three groups all went to the arena first, and the rest waited for the roll call.

There is a TV on the wall not far from the practice room, which is a live broadcast of the game. The camera is facing the entire ice surface. The people are a bit small, but they can probably see the opponent's performance clearly.

Cuan Yiyi took his dance partner to watch Gu Feng's competition. Xia Kaikai was also very curious. He was never afraid to watch his opponent's performance. Whether it was good or bad, it had no effect on him, and he even had some insights during the watching process.

Xia Kaikai asked Li Qin if he would go.

Li Qin shook her head, saying she didn't dare, for fear of being taken away.

Xia Kaikai could only go and watch by himself.

Gu Feng served the ice amidst sparse applause.

The two turned twice on the ice, and finally joined together to make a debut.

The music begins.

With the same music, Gu Feng and Zhou Ziqi have their own styles.

It's like a couple of young people in love, with a green taste, but still very moving, you can see the breath of youth on their young faces, their dancing bodies are very frenzied, and the steps under their feet are quite complete.

But how should I put it... there is no tango flavor.

The dance type selected by the World Skating Federation this season is tango dance, and each contestant needs to choose tango dance music according to his own situation and complete the required part of the show.

The tango music chosen by the provincial team this year is the world-famous dance song "One Step Away".

But it is not very friendly to young players.

"One Step Away" obviously adopts the style of a mature woman and a gentleman. The sound of the accordion surrounds the bass zone all the time, emphasizing the sexy and lingering, as well as the inseparable atmosphere.The general idea of ​​the song can be found even on the Internet. It describes the love between a man and a woman. The state of naked seduction is a game between mature men and women. The performance on the dance floor should be deeper, deeper, and more mature.

Both Gu Feng and Zhou Ziqi couldn't help themselves.

It's like a child wearing an adult's clothes, with heavy makeup and high heels, looking awkward.

In addition to their lack of experience, this situation is caused by the lack of foundation in dance and the inability to dance in place. Naturally, it looks very jerky and inexplicably embarrassing.

The so-called awkward dance.

This is roughly what it means.

Cuan Yi looked at it with a smile, without any pressure, and whispered a few words to his female companion, Xia Kaikai who was standing behind vaguely heard him say: "Ni Bai... failed... still have to endure... ..."

The 2 minutes passed in a flash, and Gu Feng, who finished the curtain call, had almost no smile on his face, and seemed to be dissatisfied with his debut.

Fortunately, the audience still gave face, and the applause was relatively warm.

Cuan Yiyi withdrew his gaze and glanced back, only to see Xia Kaikai standing behind him, he was stunned for a moment, the unstressed, even somewhat proud smile still appeared on his face.

"Are you coming to the game too?"

"Ah."

"No more warm-ups?"

"almost."

"Don't be careless, no amount of preparation before the game is enough."

"Thank you."

After Cuan finished speaking one by one, he took his girlfriend and left. They were about to enter the arena to prepare for the competition. Before leaving, he said one last sentence: "Perform yourself well, and I will treat you to dinner when you join the ice dance team."

Xia Kaikai nodded with a smile and said, "I invite you."

Cuan waved away one by one, looking like a big brother, the whole process was very relaxed.

In this level of competition, he really has no pressure. After confirming that his state this season is far superior to that of his senior brother, this gold medal is already in his pocket.

Xia Kaikai stayed in the distance and watched the next two games.

It's a city game.

It can be said that the arrangement of the whole program is very ordinary, and the strength of the contestants themselves is not enough. The dancers are lethargic, and I regret wasting time here.

Mu Yuan was sitting in the VIP seat behind the referee's seat. The VIP seat, which can seat a total of 26 people, occupies a large area and has an excellent location. As a seat of status and status, there are only four people sitting on the seat.

Mu Yuan was alone, and there were three people sitting on the other side. The two parties were far apart and each occupied the two ends of the VIP seat, which represented their completely unknown relationship with each other.

Mu Yuan was sitting on the left, with glasses on the bridge of his nose, crossed his legs, sitting in an impatient posture, and was working on a tablet computer in his hand.

The music in the arena frequently interrupted his concentration, and he couldn't help but look up, regretting it the next second.

If professional dancer competitions at the domestic level bored him, then this kind of provincial figure skating competition almost drove him crazy.

I really don't know why I came here.

Mu Yuan rested his elbows on the armrest of the seat, and pressed his fingers lightly against his chin. Although his eyes were still on the screen of the tablet computer, his thoughts had already diverged.

he thinks.

Maybe it's because I'm so hungry.

Even the same name will haunt him.

That person has been away for too long, and his memory has gradually become blurred for a long time. Sometimes when he wakes up from a nightmare, he finds that it is only because he cannot see the face of that person in the dream.

Therefore, even if it is a kind of consolation, the person with the same name will give him the illusion that that person is not sleeping in the ground, but is living in a certain corner of this world.

In fact, this is also good.

Even if you hate yourself, even if you hide far away, at least you are still alive.

The corners of Mu Yuan's eyes were slightly red, he turned off the computer and prepared to leave.

What a ridiculous thing.

That person escaped with death, but he actually searched for the hem of the other party's clothes in the world, even if he only grabbed a few strands, he was secretly delighted.

He left his seat, walked out of the VIP seat, and walked up the steps.

step.

step.

The gate is just ahead.

The broadcast in the arena suddenly rang.

"The seventh group of players, S city representative team, Xia Kaikai, Li Qin."

Mu Yuan's feet seemed to be glued.

Even if the same name is pronounced like this, it will make his heart beat faster.

So he turned around and stood at the highest point of the arena, looking down.
