【New Red Mansion】Perfect World

Chapter 12 Jia Lian meets You Erjie for the first time. Waiting to see your good show

Shui Rong took out a program from the box beside his seat and handed it to Pin'er. The stage was filled with smoke, and an animation of two giant dragons began to play on the big screen. A group of male dancers moved in unison, vigorously beating the dragon drums in front of them.

"Drums of Prosperity" - performed by Beijing Song and Dance Troupe.

After the opening drum performance was over, only the big drum at the back was removed, leaving several flat drums of different sizes on the ground.

Pin'er went to look at the performance list again:

"Pan Gu Dance" - performed by You Qianning.

The woman was dressed in a long-sleeved ancient costume. She was as light as a swallow and jumped on the drum like a bird. The bells on her feet and the drum made lively beats.

When I looked closely, I found that she was the dancer who had just performed the "Kucha Music and Dance". She slowly opened her long sleeves and finally jumped onto the largest drum in the middle, performing many difficult kneeling and rotating movements.

Pin'er couldn't take her eyes off the scene and couldn't help but applaud.

"Giselle" - Paris Opera, France.

A group of dancers wearing white dresses and white veils appeared in a gloomy and terrifying atmosphere. Their upper bodies were a bit stiff like puppets, and their feet performed a lot of complicated jumps, which showed the characteristics of being light and erratic like ghosts. Especially when the ghost women danced in groups, it created an ethereal and strange artistic conception.

Shui Rong secretly touched her hand and found it a little cold. He immediately took off his coat and put it on her.

The following dances broke the gloomy atmosphere: "Xinjiang Dance" and "Tap Dance".

Chinese and foreign dance troupes seem to be competing secretly, trying to see who is better.

After the tap dance troupe finished their performance, the big screen behind the stage began to show an ink painting. Even the floor of the stage was animated with a lake. The sound, light and electricity performance was so beautiful.

"Li Bai"-performed by Liu Xianglian.

The man was dressed in white, running out onto the stage and doing several consecutive front flips. It seemed as if he had some martial arts skills, and it seemed as if he could fly into the air in the next second.

The background screen behind him constantly changes from poetry to a waterfall, and the water on the stage beneath his feet also becomes turbulent.

The dancer shook his head, unwilling to accept his fate, but helpless! He let go, let it go, continue drinking and writing poetry! The free and easy, elegant, uninhibited, indulgent, is performed so well!

The dancers took their bows, but Lin Pin'er was still immersed in the atmosphere. The stage lights turned again, bringing a hint of mysterious oriental flavor.

Kalavinka-Oriental Dance Company

Four female dancers posed as Thousand-Armed Guanyin. Pin'er liked the Sanskrit sound so much that she turned to look at Shui Rong.

"I see. If you like it, I'll find this music for you tomorrow."

Pin'er quickly turned back to continue admiring.

"Dance of the Lady with Flowers in Her Hair" - Beijing Song and Dance Troupe.

This dance depicts the heyday of the Tang Dynasty. There are two actors behind the dance performing the scene of the emperor and his concubines watching the dance, which has the meaning of a ballet.

Li Hanlan in the front row was very satisfied and a little touched when he saw this. Jia Yuanchun did a great job organizing this event. He gently covered his hand with Jia Yuanchun's hand and patted it twice.

Jia Yuanchun understood what he meant, without showing any expression, but tears welled up in her eyes, which she then forced back.

In the Mood for Love - performed by You Kunling and Yue Yang.

The woman, wearing a fitted cheongsam, admired her charming figure in the mirror. She ran to the stage, stood on her tiptoes, and performed a ballet solo. The male dancer came on stage, and the two immediately became inseparable, and then became distant.

"It feels so good to dance ballet in a cheongsam. Can we invite her to dance when we open our business?" Pin'er asked Li Shuirong in a low voice.

"Okay, leave it to me."

After the dancers took their bows, the stage suddenly became lively again.

"White Horse"-National Song and Dance Troupe.

The dancers on the stage looked like eagles and horses. The girls looked like proud white horses and the boys looked like powerful wild horses. They danced with great strides and spun and jumped to the beat.

"Dancing for a Thousand Years"-You Qianning.

Pin'er noticed that this dancer had appeared for the third time. This time she was dressed as the Hu Xuan dancer. Her clothes were gorgeous and her cuffs had ribbons with ripple patterns. Sure enough, both she and her dancers were spinning the ribbons, and their bodies were light and their dance moves were graceful.

Jia Lian was also fascinated by the performance. He had heard that You Kunling had a sister who was a great dancer. She was always busy performing in various places, and he had always wanted to meet her but had never been able to. Today, he finally got to meet her. He was so stunned that he didn't know when his soul had been drawn away.

As the saying goes, the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. Wang Xifeng, who was supervising the stage affairs in the back, also discovered You Qianning on the stage. She was still so beautiful, so beautiful that it was breathtaking. It seemed that the old enemy in these past lives had appeared again.

Xu Ping praised her, "She dances really well. Even a woman like me is fascinated by her."

Wang Xifeng snorted coldly and thought to herself: I'm waiting to see all of you perform well.

"Chain" - Russian National Ballet Company.

The music on the stage is melodious and the dancers are all graceful. Sometimes they are connected head to tail, sometimes they tighten, sometimes they open. It's like the relationship between people.

"Watching their dance is like looking at the kaleidoscope my grandmother gave me." Pin'er said in a low voice.

Shui Rong chuckled: "You know how to describe it."

After a long time, the lights in the hall suddenly came on, and people stood up and applauded. All the dancers who had just performed ran up to the stage to take their bows together.

Here, Wang Xifeng arranged for the staff to move the chairs up and arrange them according to the design made the day before.

Then a professional etiquette lady came to invite the leader to the stage. It turned out that they wanted to take a group photo. When Li Hanlan stood up, he saw Li Shuirong and Lin Pin'er behind him. He raised his hand slightly, and Shuirong immediately understood the gesture.

He took Lin Pin'er by the hand and followed, and then whispered in her ear as they walked:

"Take you to take pictures."

Pin'er quickly took off the suit she was wearing and shook it out to help Li Shuirong get dressed. She wanted her prince to look handsome in the photo.

The two were arranged to stand behind Li Hanlan, with the dancer a little further behind. Everyone tried to gather together as much as possible, and the professional photographer pressed the shutter accurately.

Li Hanlan shook hands and talked with some of the dancers. Within a quarter of an hour, Jia Yuanchun whispered something in his ear. Immediately, a staff member took Li Hanlan out.

Before the guests could react, Jia Yuanchun stepped out and said, "It's time for dinner, everyone please feel free to do as you please."

Because Li Hanlan had other arrangements, Jia Yuanchun had to stay at the dinner.

Lin Pin'er was very happy, as she had the opportunity to walk around and take photos. Some dancers did not change out of their performance costumes and took photos with the guests in the crowd.

Li Shuirong was called by Wang Xifeng to the office on the second floor to discuss some final matters.

Lin Pin'er wanted to find the ballet girl named You Kunling, so she looked for her in the crowd. Unexpectedly, she was stopped by Jia Yuanchun.

"Lin Pin'er."

"Hello." Lin Pin'er responded politely.

"You should call me big sister." Jia Yuanchun smiled and took her hand.

"Big sister." Pin'er called softly.

"Why are your hands so cold?" Yuanchun asked with concern.

"It's okay, maybe the air conditioner is turned on too high."

"I'll take you to a place where it's not so cold." Jia Yuanchun took her hand and led her to the balcony rest area next to her. Because it was a terrace with hot air coming in from outside, it really wasn't that cold.

"Are you in love with Li Shuirong?" Jia Yuanchun asked straight to the point.

Pin'er nodded.

"If you really want to be with him, you'd better become independent and leave the Jia family as soon as possible. If someone smells something useful about you, they will take advantage of you."

Pin'er was shocked and her eyes even became terrified.

"Big sister, what does this mean?" Pin'er asked softly.

"There are some things I can't say too much about. Anyway, I am the first victim, and I shouldn't be the last. Now that I have been used, I believe he has tasted the sweetness and will not stop. I don't want you to be used as well. In fact, today is the first day we meet, and you may not believe what I say. But when I see you, it's like I see the old me, being pushed into that designed destination little by little."

When she was about to say something, Li Shuirong was looking for Lin Pin'er in the hall. Yuanchun looked up and saw Li Shuirong.

"What we talked about today, only you and I know, okay? I will find time to contact you again. Be careful." After saying that, she walked out of the terrace first and walked in the opposite direction of Shui Rong, as if what happened just now had never happened, leaving no trace.
