I became a cannon fodder villain. If I want to survive, I must take care of my baby first.

Cora gave Lycoris a simple demonstration, spinning, jumping, tapping the ground with her toes, swaying her dress, dancing gracefully and with elegant posture.

Very perfect teaching.

Lycoris radiata also imitated her, spinning and jumping, with its legs tangled and its body twisted into a pretzel, and it fell to the ground in a mess.

"It's normal for beginners to be unfamiliar with the subject. Try a few more times." Although Lycoris radiata performed poorly, Korra still showed great patience.

It was not until Manjushage fell so many times that the floor changed color that she revealed an expression of disbelief: "Could it be that Miss Manjushage's joints are actually broken?"

"No." Lycoris radiata sat on the ground in despair.

"Then what's with this dance that looks like garbage blown by the wind?" Korra made a sharp comment with a deadpan expression.

"How can you say such excessive words?" Doyle spoke up for his sister.

"Master Doyle, who has been lying on the ground and laughing since just now, seems to be more excessive, right?" Cora glanced at Doyle, who was laughing so hard that he couldn't straighten his back, with disdain.

"Haha, but...really...haha, it's really funny!" Doyle just sat up straight and started to laugh at Lycoris radiata's dancing again. From his expression, it was clear that Cora was still very merciful when criticizing.

I really hope that Doyle will fall down because of laughing too much. Manjushage was taking revenge on her brother who was laughing at her in her heart.

Just as they both said, Lycoris radiata and dancing are like two ends of the world. Not to say they are completely unrelated, but at most they absolutely cannot appear at the same time.

Who would have thought that the fundamental reason why the beautiful, noble and elegant eldest daughter of the Xingchenhua family had never attended formal social occasions was actually because of her body coordination problems.

Because they are too afraid of being laughed at if this shortcoming is discovered, all red spider lilies never appear in public.

There are so many ways to attract hatred, why did she choose to make a fool of herself at the dance?

Because that's the fact, it's just a matter of how much shame it is.

Korra's description actually has some exaggeration in it, but the exaggeration is that saying that Lycoris radiata's dancing posture is like garbage being blown away by the wind is a compliment to her.

How embarrassing it is, only Manjushage herself, who fell countless times even while spinning around, knows.

It was very kind of him not to say something like "You'd better give up dancing."

To be honest, even if she can't dance, Lycoris radiata doesn't think it's a big deal. Everyone has things they are not good at, so why make it hard on yourself?

But Cora's dancing style sparked her interest in dancing.

Lycoris radiata also hopes that she can perform a dance that everyone can praise from the bottom of their hearts.

Seeing that she was unwilling to give up, Doyle stopped laughing and asked very considerately: "Is it because you don't have a suitable dance partner? How about I practice with you?"

"Really? Doyle, I love you the most." Manjushage was so moved that she burst into tears.

"Don't do that, it's disgusting." Doyle quickly turned his face away, but he was very happy in his heart.

It’s great to be able to help my sister!

However, not long after, he suddenly felt a little regretful.

"My feet are swollen from you stepping on them." After some practice, Doyle slumped on the ground, his eyes and tone full of resentment.

It was just the most basic practice, but I was frequently stepped on and tripped, it was like walking into hell, I don't want to have this experience again.

"I'm sorry." Lycoris radiata offered a very sincere apology.

Or should I just give up? There are so many things I can do anyway, there is no need to stick to this one thing.

"What are you doing? It looks like fun." Just when Manjushage was giving up on herself, Luo Shiqi came over with a curious look.

"Do you think it's funny that I escaped death?" Doyle looked at Luo Shiqi with a look that asked "Are you blind?"

"We are being a forbidden brother and sister - no, we are practicing dancing." Cora drooled and instantly switched to the expression of a gentle old woman.

"Dancing? Is Doyle too stupid to be good at it? Then I still advise you to give up. After all, some things cannot be accomplished by hard work alone." It seemed that he had been hanging out with the people from the Xingchenhua family for too long, and Luo Shiqi's words became more and more sinister.

Especially when it comes to using seemingly gentle words to harshly mock others, he is getting better and better at it.

"No, actually I'm the one who wants to learn dancing, and I'm terrible at it." Manjushage looked frustrated.

Hearing this, Luo Shiqi immediately put on an innocent smile: "No problem, Manjushage can definitely do it."

When it comes to changing faces, he has also learned the true skills from the Xingchenhua family.

"What kind of attitude is that? Apologize to me, you bastard!" Doyle was so confused. I didn't even blink. How did this guy manage to switch his expression and tone so quickly? Could it be that Luo Shiqi also knew how to disguise himself?

"No, you said that because you didn't see my performance just now. I should really give up." Manjushage decided to face reality.

"As for dancing, I can do a little bit. Maybe I just didn't find the trick before. How about trying a different partner?" Luo Shiqi bent down and stretched out a hand, making an invitation gesture like the one in the novel illustration.

"Okay then." Manjushage smiled helplessly. Although she no longer had any hope, there was a handsome man like a prince in front of her who invited her. How could anyone choose to refuse?

Manjushage grabbed that hand, and the next moment she felt a strong force coming from her waist. Luo Shiqi held her slender waist with one hand and began to turn. His skillful movements made people wonder if he had practiced in private.

However, it didn't take long for Manjushage to realize that she was worrying too much, because Luo Shiqi's pull seemed a little too strong, and the two of them almost fell to the ground together.

"What are you doing? Haha. You look so majestic. I thought you were a good dancer." Although Manjushage complained, she actually felt a little comforted in her heart.

At least as a beginner, Luo Shiqi was also very clumsy.

As a former prom queen, Cora has an extraordinary talent in dancing, and Doyle also has overdeveloped motor nerves.

They simply couldn't understand how difficult it was for Manjushage to learn to dance as a stay-at-home girl who stayed at home all day.

Only Luo Shiqi's movements made Manjushage feel familiar.

See, he dances terribly, too.

However, that familiar feeling of strangeness disappeared without a trace when the next action came.

"What happened just now doesn't count. I wasn't ready yet." Luo Shiqi hurriedly adjusted his breathing and posture. As the leader, he led Manjushage to learn dance steps.

Although it is also a dance without music, Luo Shiqi's dance steps are unpredictable, and his movements are weird and mysterious. It does not seem like a dance that would be performed in social occasions at all, but it has a natural beauty.

The most important thing is that Lycoris can actually keep up.

Her stiff limbs slowly stretched out, and her body twisted along with his steps. She couldn't even do the most basic movements, but when she heard Luo Shiqi's dance, she was able to keep up miraculously.

It’s like the body is responding on its own.

This feeling is very familiar. It is a memory that is clearly engraved in the bones but has long been forgotten.

When she was very young, Manjushage saw her mother dancing the same dance.

She liked it very much at that time and spent some time learning it.

But after learning it, Kikyo didn't allow her to dance in front of anyone.

"Listen carefully, Mansha. This dance is called Yuanqi's Poem. It is a solo dance performed by priests during sacrificial activities. At other times, the only time an invitation is made to a loved one is when expressing love to the other party. Before you meet someone who is worthy of you, you must never dance this dance, even by yourself!" I remember that this is what my mother said.

Manjushage looked up at Luo Shiqi and thought, "Does he know what this dance represents? Why is he so careless?"

"Be careful!" Just as Manjushage was distracted, the rhythm suddenly became faster. She couldn't keep up and fell out. Luo Shiqi immediately stopped and quickly stepped forward to catch her.

The movements in Yuan Qi's poems are actually not complicated. What is important is the changes in the rhythm.

Although the dance didn't last until the end, it was enough to prove that Lycoris radiata has the ability to dance.

Cora was amazed at the side: "Miss Manjushage is dancing very well, isn't she? Is it because this dance is special? Is it a dance created by Mr. Luo Shiqi?"

Hearing this, Manjushage seemed a little dazed.

Why did my mother and Luo Shiqi know how to dance a dance that even the prom queen didn't know, and they seemed to be very skilled at it?
