Chapter 64 The White Moonlight Chapter Is Here
The new work that Ruan Xiao will challenge is a free skating program created by Yunyan inspired by the movie "Black Swan" of the same name.
That movie, starring Natalie Portman, was about a ballet dancer's inner torment, struggle, and death as she competes for the top spot.
Yunyan follows the dark and grotesque style of the film, making the choreography more violent and violent, and the emotions that fill the entire free skating program are more complex and unrestrained.
Compared with the docile white swan in the previous "Swan Lake", the black swan is a wild, monstrous, and sinful existence.
Each track has its own tonality, and the adapted figure skating movements are also different.
"Swan Lake" is peaceful and pure, and what it wants to show is the beauty and joy of the white swan. Therefore, adding too many elements to the posture changes will appear too full and overflowing, and the overall uncoordinated.
This is why the BV basic score of this work can only be maintained at a moderate level.
But in the turbulent dance music of "Black Swan", the contestants have more room to play. No matter how complicated the technical movements are, as long as the emotional interpretation is in place, they can join in, so that they can keep adding points.
If you can win the entire show, your chances of winning in the Grand Prix can be greatly increased.
Since the day they parted ways with An Qiao half a year ago, Ruan Xiao has always targeted him, and has been looking forward to this encounter in his heart.
But after waiting for half a year, the result was too bad, Ruan Xiao lost completely.
The greater the so-called expectation, the greater the disappointment.
Therefore, Ruan Xiao's self-esteem was greatly frustrated by the mistake of the Finland Cup this time, and he was also very unwilling.
Now that he knew that his original program didn't have much chance of winning, at most it could help him advance to the top position, but he was still close to winning against An Qiao.
In addition, part of the reason for Ruan Xiao to catch up was the suspicion of netizens.
Knowing that he couldn't stop other people's mouths, he would cover his own ears, but Ruan Xiao always cared about the fact that those netizens kept saying that he relied on his background for his position.
Because Zhou Muye had announced the relationship between the two on the Internet in a very high-profile way, so Ruan Xiao's performance on the field was a little bit unsatisfactory, and everyone would point their fingers at the strong background and conditions of the Zhou family.
As time goes by, Ruan Xiao will have the idea that if he is not good enough, Ah Ye will be implicated, so although he looks innocent and comfortable on the surface, he still bears too much pressure in his heart before every game.
The Grand Prix is less than a month away, and the practice time is very tight.
Ruan Xiao increased the intensity of training, but for some reason, the results of the program were not always satisfactory.
On this day, Ruan Xiao rehearsed "Black Swan" completely, and it was also the one with the fewest mistakes so far.
He wiped the sweat off his face with his palm, slid to the sidelines, bent down and asked, "Mr. Yao, how many points can you score?"
Coach Yao was sitting in front of a portable small square table. On the table was a laptop connected to a camera, which recorded the whole process of Ruan Xiao's rehearsal just now.
Coach Yao rested his chin on one hand and stared at the playback on the screen, without answering immediately.
Ruan Xiao propped up his knees, stood behind her, and followed her to watch.
But looking at it, the light in Ruan Xiao's eyes gradually dimmed.
No need for the coach to tell him, he knows how he was skating just now.
Figure skating not only examines the completeness and standardization of technical movements, but also pays attention to the aesthetic feeling of the pictures presented by the athletes' gestures.
It's like dancing a piece of dance, throwing your hands out, where you can swing them properly, raising your legs, how high you can lift them so that they are not abrupt, and twisting your waist and swinging your hips. Ability to render expressions and emotions...
There are so many things to consider and pay attention to.
However, what Ruan Xiao can only achieve now is to make the jumping and spinning movements as clean and perfect as possible, and the others are more or less lacking. Therefore, this free skating is not only not good, but also a bit blunt. None of the movements are fluid enough to be pleasing to the eye.
Although Coach Yao usually has an encouraging teaching attitude, but this time, he had to tell the truth: "Xiaoxiao, let alone how many points you can get for technical movements, I think the biggest problem is...you can't substitute them in, so you can Don't let me on your show."
Then, she looked up at Ruan Xiao, with a hint of helplessness in her eyes: "Xiaoxiao, why not "Swan Lake", at least in terms of emotions, you can better control it."
Ruan Xiao gripped his knees tightly with his fingers, and frowned slightly.
Suddenly there was a burst of irritability in my heart, faint, and a sense of anxiety.
In the end... what should he do?
***
Just when Ruan Xiao was practicing hard but couldn't find his way with a headless fly, Yunyan returned to China within two days.
Hearing this news, the dark clouds accumulated in Ruan Xiao's heart suddenly exploded like a gap, and light shot out from it.
Ruan Xiao immediately contacted Yunyan, hoping that Yunyan could find time to come to the club to guide him.
This is a show choreographed by Yunyan herself, Yunyan should know how to do each linking movement to look good.
Yunyan is obliged to Ruan Xiao's entrustment. After two days of rest at home, she came to the club to serve as Ruan Xiao's accompanying coach.
At first, because Yunyan hadn't seen Ruan Xiao for a long time, she always missed the students she taught herself, so she was patient in class.
But gradually, as Ruan Xiao failed to meet her expectations again and again and let her down, the tough and stern side of Yunyan's character began to emerge.
Sometimes, her merciless berating can be heard throughout the arena.
"What are you doing? Keep your head on the first turn! Keep your head! Keep your head! How many times have you said that? Why do you keep forgetting!"
"Ruan Xiao, you are not a white swan, you don't need to be so subtle, spread your shoulders back and to the sides as much as possible, remember what a black swan looks like, you have to act it out!"
"Have you eaten yet! Your feet are floating! You have to move a lot, but you have to be rooted on the ice. You are a swan, not a spinning top!"
"..."
Under Yunyan's harsh reprimand, Ruan Xiao became more and more tired, often in a state of exhaustion.
No matter what he did, it seemed that he could not meet the teacher's requirements.
However, not only Ruan Xiao was tired, but Yun Yan was also tired.
All the students she has taught have extraordinary talents. It is really rare for someone as stupid as Ruan Xiao. She shouts every day so that her voice is angry.
Yunyan had no choice but to stop training suddenly one day and called Ruan Xiao to the sidelines.
Yunyan put her hands on her hips, breathed out, calmed down, and then said to Ruan Xiao: "I'll give you three days, and you can go through the main points of the movements yourself, don't make mistakes again, and also, bring your emotions, don't be like this ..."
Yunyan paused for a moment, then said: "You seem to only experience happiness, and you only know happiness. Once your emotions exceed the range of familiarity, you don't know how to express them. It's too single and spiritual. From you, I can't see the blackness at all. The ambition and destructive power of swans...at least not now."
Ruan Xiao kept his head down, his face flushed red.
Yunyan packed up the jacket and bag beside her, without looking back, she said, "I'll come to see you in three days."
As soon as Yunyan left, a white-haired boy slid to Ruan Xiao's side and called him worriedly: "Senior brother..."
Ruan Xiao pursed his lips, his expression was tense, he shook his head stubbornly, silently as if to indicate that he was fine, but also as if he was refusing to listen to others communicating with him, and then slid towards the other side of the exit.
Chen Mo stood where he was, looked at Ruan Xiao's back, was at a loss for a while, and sighed secretly.
Ruan Xiao went to the locker room. At this time, everyone was still training on the ice rink, so there was no one here.
Ruan Xiao closed the door and went to the water dispenser to pour water. When he picked up the cup to fill the water, he suddenly choked and coughed.
He coughed badly and his eyes were red and wet.
Ruan Xiao covered his mouth with his arms, and leaned against the door of the closet, his body trembled, coughing in silence, his dark eyes were full of pain.
The mind is tired like never before, and anxiety is eroding him day by day.
***
In the second half of the training that night, Ruan Xiao inadvertently looked up and saw Zhou Muye in the rest area.
Zhou Muye had a thin and light laptop on his lap, and was typing on the keyboard intently.
Ruan Xiao didn't know when Zhou Muye came, but almost every night Zhou Muye would arrive early to pick him up at the club and go home with him.
Since Ruan Xiao participated in international competitions, the attention on the Internet has continued to increase, and his hot pot restaurant was naturally found out by netizens. Although the business has become more popular than before, the residence above the hot pot restaurant cannot be used. up.
Not long ago, a fan broke open the iron fence on the third floor and entered Ruan Xiao's room to press the camera. Fortunately, he found it in time and Ruan Manling also called the police.
Ruan Manling rented a house nearby, and originally wanted to move there with Ruan Xiao, but after Shang Yao found out, she strongly urged Ruan Xiao to live in Zhou's house.
One is because the Zhou family's community environment is absolutely safe, and it is impossible for some fanatical fans to find a place.The second is because Ruan Manling is too busy to take care of Ruan Xiao. Ruan Xiao usually goes back and forth at the club, and it would be inconvenient if there is no one to pick her up. Why not let Ruan Xiao live in the Zhou residence, and Ruan Xiao can go back when Ruan Manling is free. live.
Therefore, Ruan Xiao is currently living in Zhou's house, and since Zhou Muye got his driver's license, Zhou Muye will pick him up wherever he goes.
Ruan Xiao slid to the sidelines, put his upper body on the edge of the guardrail, tilted his head to look at Zhou Muye.
The nerves that have been tense and depressed all day also relax at this time.
He originally wanted to quietly admire Zhou Muye's appearance when he was seriously writing the thesis, but Zhou Muye seemed to have a feeling, so he raised his head at this moment.
The eyes of the two meet in the air.
Zhou Muye raised his eyebrows lightly at him, as if asking if he was alright?
Ruan Xiao thought about it and nodded.
That's all for today's training.
He is already very tired.
Pack up your things and go to the parking lot with Zhou Muye.
Zhou Muye's car is a black AMG, fashionable, young and cool.
The co-pilot is Ruan Xiao's exclusive seat. Ruan Xiao has two rows of blind box dolls in front of the windshield of the co-pilot. Ruan Xiao let it all go.
After getting into the car, Ruan Xiao was about to fasten his seat belt.
Zhou Muye handed over a small box of cakes from the side.
From time to time, he would give Ruan Xiao extra meals and make some desserts at night.
"Thank you, Ah Ye." Ruan Xiao smiled.
Although he has lost his appetite due to training recently, he couldn't bear to waste Zhou Muye's mind, so he opened the packing box on the spot and ate with a spoon.
Ruan Xiao was eating alone, but he didn't know what to think, he turned his face to look at Zhou Muye, and said, "Aye, help me see, is this vicious or not?"
Zhou Muye just started the car, and when he heard what Ruan Xiao said, he looked at him: "What is it like?"
Ruan Xiao sat upright, facing Zhou Muye, frowned seriously, slightly wrinkled her upturned little nose, and made what she thought was a fierce look in her eyes.
Yunyan said that to be a black swan has many qualities, one of which is to be fierce and aggressive.
But he was always too docile and submissive to give off an aggressive vibe.
Ruan Xiao bared her indistinct little canine teeth: "Am I fierce?"
Zhou Muye looked at him for a long time, then said softly, "It's not fierce."
Ruan Xiao seemed to be discouraged for a moment, but he straightened up again soon, maintaining his expression unchanged, with one hand resting his paw on his face like a tiger, and deliberately made a clumsy imitation sound of the emperor's engine in his throat.
Grinning his teeth again, he asked, "Are you fierce?"
Ruan Xiao thought he was a tiger.
But in Zhou Muye's opinion...
Zhou Muye lowered his lower eyelashes, stretched out a finger, casually hooked the white cream with his fingertips, and then raised it to touch the tip of Ruan Xiao's delicate nose.
Ruan Xiao only felt a chill on the tip of his nose, but before he could react, Zhou Muye leaned closer and gently sucked off the cream.
Ruan Xiao was stunned.
Zhou Muye supported the back of Ruan Xiao's chair with one hand, and stepped back a little. In the dim car, his eyes scanned Ruan Xiao's beautiful facial features back and forth, and finally whispered: "Did you do it on purpose?"
Ruan Xiao blinked, and said softly, "What?"
Zhou Muye: "Deliberately acting cute?"
Ruan Xiao let out an "oops", and leaned back on the back of the chair like a leaking ball. He was troubled in his heart, and finally picked up the cake box, opened the abyss's huge mouth, and swallowed more than half of the cake in one gulp as if venting his anger.
The corners of Ruan Xiao's mouth were filled with cream, his mouth was full, and his pronunciation was slurred: "Aye, I can't jump the black swan! I can't do it!"
Zhou Muye was busy with his studies all day long, but he probably knew that Ruan Xiao was going to change the show recently, and also knew that the source of inspiration for that choreography was an Oscar-winning movie of the same name.
Zhou Muye turned around and sat back in the driver's seat, put in gear, stepped on the accelerator, and said in a cold voice, "Go back and watch a movie together, and let the young master explain it to you in detail."
After returning to Zhou's house at night, Ruan Xiao took a shower, and with a towel on his head, he went into Zhou Muye's room.
He is now living in a guest room in the villa, on the second floor, and he has to go downstairs to find Zhou Muye.
Ruan Xiao happened to meet Shang Yao halfway.
Seizing the opportunity, Shang Yao grabbed Ruan Xiao again and asked about the whereabouts of the ten babies.
But obviously, the whereabouts of the tenth child are still unknown.
Shang Yao frowned, pondered for a while, and pulled Ruan Xiao aside: "Xiaoxiao, don't be shy, Aunt Shang is very open-minded, Aunt Shang just wanted to ask... Is it because Mu Ye can't do it?"
"!!!"
Ruan Xiao blushed, and hurriedly explained, "No, no, no, no, no, I, I, I... I... We haven't been together yet..."
The child stuttered in fright, "that" for a long time and there was no "that" result.
But Shang Yao quickly understood, and patted the back of Ruan Xiao's hand, hating iron for not becoming steel: "Oh! It's Zhou Muye who can't do it!"
Ruan Xiao: "..."
Weak and helpless, dare not speak.
***
Because Zhou Muye and Zhou Muye stayed up late to watch the original movie the night before, Ruan Xiao arrived at the club a little late the next day.
While watching the movie, Zhou Muye explained to him the heroine's journey from a simple, overprotected girl to finally becoming a black swan.
Zhou Muye explained it in detail, and Ruan Xiao could understand it, and finally grasped a few key words:
Rebellious.
lure.
Hey.
attack.
self-destruction.
Although he knew the theory and grasped the emotions that should be presented in the free skating, Ruan Xiao was even more hopeless.
Because none of those keywords are familiar to him.
Those personality traits are almost two kinds of personalities with him.
Ruan Xiao entered No. 1 skating room, wondering where to start training today, when he suddenly heard bursts of applause and cheers in front of him.
When he looked up, he found that there were especially many people in the skating room today. At first glance, there were many new faces.
Can't help but wonder if I went to the wrong place.
Just as he was wondering, a beautiful figure slid past on the ice rink at high speed.
Like everyone else, Ruan Xiao looked along.
The person on the ice happened to make a forward-inward turn three times, facing Ruan Xiao's direction.
At the same time, Ruan Xiao saw clearly the people on the ice surrounded by crowd.
In an instant, he was slightly stunned.
Chen Mo didn't know when he came to Ruan Xiao's side and said, "Brother, are you here?"
Ruan Xiao blinked, lowered his eyelashes, swallowed his saliva, and looked at Chen Mo after regaining consciousness: "Yes."
Chen Mo tugged at Ruan Xiao's sleeve, and explained: "They are all contestants in this Grand Prix. I heard from Coach Xiao Kaiyang that the German team was supposed to arrive next week. I don't know why, but it was brought forward... ..."
Before the Grand Prix, figure skaters need to go to the host country to participate in the pre-competition training some time in advance, and the Century Skating Club is used as the training base of the national team, plus there is a high-standard skating room that is comparable to the competition venue. Every season, here is A designated location for training.
Xiao Kaiyang had already prepared, but the German team obviously arrived a week early, which caught him off guard, so he was busy with things first.
After hearing Chen Mo's explanation, Ruan Xiao smiled and said he understood.
He glanced around the sidelines again, and he really saw An Qiao sitting in the rest area.
There was still a suitcase next to An Qiao, and it was obvious that he hadn't had time to check into the hotel yet.
Chen Mo glanced at the direction of the ice rink, lowered his voice, a little embarrassed: "Coach Xiao Kaiyang asked me to ask you if you want to change the skating room for you..."
Hearing this, Ruan Xiao looked towards the direction of the ice rink, the person who was skating.
It was Bai Xiyu who left a year ago.
Bai Xiyu still looked cold and out of the dust, but when he was standing on the ice, something was different.
Looking at Bai Xiyu's slender figure with ease on the ice, his clean and neat way of changing blades, and just through those trivial habits, Ruan Xiao can see that Bai Xiyu has improved a lot compared to a year ago.
The control he showed when he was on the ice was even stronger.
Just at this time.
Bai Xiyu cast his gaze in this direction, and bumped into Ruan Xiao who was observing him.
Ruan Xiao subconsciously wanted to glance away, but he soon realized what he was thinking.
Frowning lightly, almost invisibly, he straightened his back secretly, and looked at Bai Xiyu across the crowd.
An arrogant mocking smile flashed across the corner of Bai Xiyu's lips.
Chen Mo still asked from the side: "Brother, do you want to change? If so, let's go..."
Ruan Xiao's voice was gentle and calm: "No change."
Chen Mo froze for a moment, glanced at Bai Xiyu, then at Ruan Xiao: "But Bai Xiyu..."
"No." Ruan Xiao looked at Chen Mo, slightly bent his eyes, and said, "Don't worry, he won't affect me."
After speaking, he went to the locker room as usual.
***
Say it doesn't matter, but that's completely blunt.
That day, Ruan Xiao was still rehearsing the black swan accompanied by Coach Yao. Although under Yunyan's guidance, the movements could basically meet the standard, but they were all like those carved out of the template, lacking emotion.
Ruan Xiao still couldn't get into Black Swan.
However, Bai Xiyu and An Qiao on the other side went much smoother and were admired and praised by the crowd.
Every time there was applause from the other end, Ruan Xiao's heart tightened, but he still insisted on focusing on his own training.
Until one time, Ruan Xiao couldn't bear it anymore and glanced at the field of the German team.
At this glance, Bai Xiyu was leaning against the guardrail, tilting his face slightly, and was talking to his teammates with a smile, but his eyes were always looking at this side.
With a swipe, Ruan Xiao's face turned red uncontrollably, and cold sweat broke out all of a sudden.
He always felt that Bai Xiyu was judging him, laughing at him, laughing at his substandard posture, laughing at him as just a jumping machine...
Ruan Xiao, who already couldn't let go, couldn't let go even more.
Ruan Xiao quickly put down the leg that was lifting the blade, slid to the sidelines, and turned his back on the pretense of drinking water, avoiding the sight that made his back feel like a needle prick.
It was like this until the end of training in the evening.
Ruan Xiao didn't plan to stay for practice, and wanted to go back early.
Just thinking about it, a call came from the ice: "Ean!"
Ruan Xiao followed the voice and saw a German team player waving towards the door, feeling very excited.
And standing at the door was Zhou Muye who had just walked in.
Not only the one who said hello, but two or three also slid towards the exit.
Ruan Xiao guessed that they were all members who had just been promoted to the senior group. When they were in the youth group, they probably could often meet Zhou Muye in competitions.
Soon, Zhou Muye was surrounded by several Germans.
An Qiao had seen Zhou Muye before when he was training at Yunyan's house, and he also slowly slid to the sidelines.
Ruan Xiao guessed that they were going to chat for a while, so he didn't go there, and leaned on the sidelines to wait for Zhou Muye.
At this time, a gust of wind blew past him.
Before Ruan Xiao could react, one person had already turned his back to the guardrail, put his hands on it, braked the car, and stopped beside him.
Ruan Xiao turned his head to look.
It's Bai Xiyu.
The two shared an ice rink, and they hadn't formally met each other for a whole day.
Ruan Xiao thought it would continue until the Grand Prix ended, but Bai Xiyu approached him first.
Bai Xiyu tilted his head to look at Ruan Xiao, with a relaxed expression, raised his lips and smiled: "Long time no see."
Ruan Xiao couldn't figure out why he came, and put one hand backward on the railing, with a bit of alienation: "Yeah."
Bai Xiyu looked Ruan Xiao up and down, then looked at Zhou Muye on the other side of the ice rink, raised his chin, and said, "I didn't expect you to be together."
Ruan Xiao didn't know what to say, so he didn't respond.
Bai Xiyu chuckled lightly: "Don't you suspect that he uses you as a substitute?"
Ruan Xiao frowned suddenly, feeling an inexplicable depression in his heart.
Now I can be sure, Bai Xiyu is here to find fault.
From the point of view of character, Bai Xiyu is almost the same as before.
Ruan Xiao kept his eyes on Zhou Muye who was talking with someone.
Zhou Muye's expression was dull, with a sense of alienation, but there was obvious patience when listening to people talking.
He looks dignified and willful, but he is very educated and gentle.
Ruan Xiao took a deep breath, suppressed the strange emotions in his heart, looked at Bai Xiyu, his face was neither humble nor overbearing, and asked in a delicate voice: "Whose substitute?"
Bai Xiyu narrowed his eyes lightly, flashed a smug look, and said inexplicably, "Everyone says you look like me..."
Ruan Xiao interrupted suddenly: "Stop dreaming."
Bai Xiyu paused for a moment: "What?"
"Like you?" Ruan Xiao blinked Heishuishui's beautiful eyes, looking serious and innocent, "You can't even touch porcelain with a good-looking person like me."
"..."
Bai Xiyu's expression froze for a moment.
Ruan Xiao glanced at Bai Xiyu's face, as if evaluating something, and after a while, said: "If you have one-tenth of my beauty, you probably don't need to rely on your strength."
Bai Xiyu stared sharply, pointing at Ruan Xiao: "You!"
However, Ruan Xiao raised the corners of his lower lips, with a happy smile on his face: "Mr. Zhou and I have a very good relationship, don't worry about it, just take care of yourself."
Then, without giving Bai Xiyu a chance to speak, he slid forward.
Leaving Bai Xiyu behind, Ruan Xiao quietly let out a sigh of relief.
This year, he didn't learn anything with Zhou Muye, but he learned a lot about being annoying.
The author has something to say:
Zhou Muye: Didn't learn anything?If you want to say that, I will teach you some practical content.
Ruan Xiao covered his ears.
That movie, starring Natalie Portman, was about a ballet dancer's inner torment, struggle, and death as she competes for the top spot.
Yunyan follows the dark and grotesque style of the film, making the choreography more violent and violent, and the emotions that fill the entire free skating program are more complex and unrestrained.

Just when Ruan Xiao was practicing hard but couldn't find his way with a headless fly, Yunyan returned to China within two days.
Hearing this news, the dark clouds accumulated in Ruan Xiao's heart suddenly exploded like a gap, and light shot out from it.
Ruan Xiao immediately contacted Yunyan, hoping that Yunyan could find time to come to the club to guide him.

"..."
Under Yunyan's harsh reprimand, Ruan Xiao became more and more tired, often in a state of exhaustion.
No matter what he did, it seemed that he could not meet the teacher's requirements.
However, not only Ruan Xiao was tired, but Yun Yan was also tired.

Ruan Xiao kept his head down, his face flushed red.
Yunyan packed up the jacket and bag beside her, without looking back, she said, "I'll come to see you in three days."
As soon as Yunyan left, a white-haired boy slid to Ruan Xiao's side and called him worriedly: "Senior brother..."
Ruan Xiao pursed his lips, his expression was tense, he shook his head stubbornly, silently as if to indicate that he was fine, but also as if he was refusing to listen to others communicating with him, and then slid towards the other side of the exit.
Chen Mo stood where he was, looked at Ruan Xiao's back, was at a loss for a while, and sighed secretly.
Ruan Xiao went to the locker room. At this time, everyone was still training on the ice rink, so there was no one here.
Ruan Xiao closed the door and went to the water dispenser to pour water. When he picked up the cup to fill the water, he suddenly choked and coughed.
He coughed badly and his eyes were red and wet.
Ruan Xiao covered his mouth with his arms, and leaned against the door of the closet, his body trembled, coughing in silence, his dark eyes were full of pain.
The mind is tired like never before, and anxiety is eroding him day by day.
***
In the second half of the training that night, Ruan Xiao inadvertently looked up and saw Zhou Muye in the rest area.
Zhou Muye had a thin and light laptop on his lap, and was typing on the keyboard intently.
Ruan Xiao didn't know when Zhou Muye came, but almost every night Zhou Muye would arrive early to pick him up at the club and go home with him.
Since Ruan Xiao participated in international competitions, the attention on the Internet has continued to increase, and his hot pot restaurant was naturally found out by netizens. Although the business has become more popular than before, the residence above the hot pot restaurant cannot be used. up.
Not long ago, a fan broke open the iron fence on the third floor and entered Ruan Xiao's room to press the camera. Fortunately, he found it in time and Ruan Manling also called the police.
Ruan Manling rented a house nearby, and originally wanted to move there with Ruan Xiao, but after Shang Yao found out, she strongly urged Ruan Xiao to live in Zhou's house.
One is because the Zhou family's community environment is absolutely safe, and it is impossible for some fanatical fans to find a place.The second is because Ruan Manling is too busy to take care of Ruan Xiao. Ruan Xiao usually goes back and forth at the club, and it would be inconvenient if there is no one to pick her up. Why not let Ruan Xiao live in the Zhou residence, and Ruan Xiao can go back when Ruan Manling is free. live.
Therefore, Ruan Xiao is currently living in Zhou's house, and since Zhou Muye got his driver's license, Zhou Muye will pick him up wherever he goes.
Ruan Xiao slid to the sidelines, put his upper body on the edge of the guardrail, tilted his head to look at Zhou Muye.
The nerves that have been tense and depressed all day also relax at this time.
He originally wanted to quietly admire Zhou Muye's appearance when he was seriously writing the thesis, but Zhou Muye seemed to have a feeling, so he raised his head at this moment.
The eyes of the two meet in the air.
Zhou Muye raised his eyebrows lightly at him, as if asking if he was alright?
Ruan Xiao thought about it and nodded.
That's all for today's training.
He is already very tired.
Pack up your things and go to the parking lot with Zhou Muye.
Zhou Muye's car is a black AMG, fashionable, young and cool.
The co-pilot is Ruan Xiao's exclusive seat. Ruan Xiao has two rows of blind box dolls in front of the windshield of the co-pilot. Ruan Xiao let it all go.
After getting into the car, Ruan Xiao was about to fasten his seat belt.
Zhou Muye handed over a small box of cakes from the side.
From time to time, he would give Ruan Xiao extra meals and make some desserts at night.
"Thank you, Ah Ye." Ruan Xiao smiled.
Although he has lost his appetite due to training recently, he couldn't bear to waste Zhou Muye's mind, so he opened the packing box on the spot and ate with a spoon.
Ruan Xiao was eating alone, but he didn't know what to think, he turned his face to look at Zhou Muye, and said, "Aye, help me see, is this vicious or not?"
Zhou Muye just started the car, and when he heard what Ruan Xiao said, he looked at him: "What is it like?"
Ruan Xiao sat upright, facing Zhou Muye, frowned seriously, slightly wrinkled her upturned little nose, and made what she thought was a fierce look in her eyes.
Yunyan said that to be a black swan has many qualities, one of which is to be fierce and aggressive.
But he was always too docile and submissive to give off an aggressive vibe.
Ruan Xiao bared her indistinct little canine teeth: "Am I fierce?"
Zhou Muye looked at him for a long time, then said softly, "It's not fierce."
Ruan Xiao seemed to be discouraged for a moment, but he straightened up again soon, maintaining his expression unchanged, with one hand resting his paw on his face like a tiger, and deliberately made a clumsy imitation sound of the emperor's engine in his throat.
Grinning his teeth again, he asked, "Are you fierce?"
Ruan Xiao thought he was a tiger.
But in Zhou Muye's opinion...
Zhou Muye lowered his lower eyelashes, stretched out a finger, casually hooked the white cream with his fingertips, and then raised it to touch the tip of Ruan Xiao's delicate nose.
Ruan Xiao only felt a chill on the tip of his nose, but before he could react, Zhou Muye leaned closer and gently sucked off the cream.
Ruan Xiao was stunned.
Zhou Muye supported the back of Ruan Xiao's chair with one hand, and stepped back a little. In the dim car, his eyes scanned Ruan Xiao's beautiful facial features back and forth, and finally whispered: "Did you do it on purpose?"
Ruan Xiao blinked, and said softly, "What?"
Zhou Muye: "Deliberately acting cute?"
Ruan Xiao let out an "oops", and leaned back on the back of the chair like a leaking ball. He was troubled in his heart, and finally picked up the cake box, opened the abyss's huge mouth, and swallowed more than half of the cake in one gulp as if venting his anger.
The corners of Ruan Xiao's mouth were filled with cream, his mouth was full, and his pronunciation was slurred: "Aye, I can't jump the black swan! I can't do it!"
Zhou Muye was busy with his studies all day long, but he probably knew that Ruan Xiao was going to change the show recently, and also knew that the source of inspiration for that choreography was an Oscar-winning movie of the same name.
Zhou Muye turned around and sat back in the driver's seat, put in gear, stepped on the accelerator, and said in a cold voice, "Go back and watch a movie together, and let the young master explain it to you in detail."
After returning to Zhou's house at night, Ruan Xiao took a shower, and with a towel on his head, he went into Zhou Muye's room.
He is now living in a guest room in the villa, on the second floor, and he has to go downstairs to find Zhou Muye.
Ruan Xiao happened to meet Shang Yao halfway.
Seizing the opportunity, Shang Yao grabbed Ruan Xiao again and asked about the whereabouts of the ten babies.
But obviously, the whereabouts of the tenth child are still unknown.
Shang Yao frowned, pondered for a while, and pulled Ruan Xiao aside: "Xiaoxiao, don't be shy, Aunt Shang is very open-minded, Aunt Shang just wanted to ask... Is it because Mu Ye can't do it?"
"!!!"
Ruan Xiao blushed, and hurriedly explained, "No, no, no, no, no, I, I, I... I... We haven't been together yet..."
The child stuttered in fright, "that" for a long time and there was no "that" result.
But Shang Yao quickly understood, and patted the back of Ruan Xiao's hand, hating iron for not becoming steel: "Oh! It's Zhou Muye who can't do it!"
Ruan Xiao: "..."
Weak and helpless, dare not speak.
***
Because Zhou Muye and Zhou Muye stayed up late to watch the original movie the night before, Ruan Xiao arrived at the club a little late the next day.
While watching the movie, Zhou Muye explained to him the heroine's journey from a simple, overprotected girl to finally becoming a black swan.
Zhou Muye explained it in detail, and Ruan Xiao could understand it, and finally grasped a few key words:
Rebellious.
lure.
Hey.
attack.
self-destruction.
Although he knew the theory and grasped the emotions that should be presented in the free skating, Ruan Xiao was even more hopeless.
Because none of those keywords are familiar to him.
Those personality traits are almost two kinds of personalities with him.
Ruan Xiao entered No. 1 skating room, wondering where to start training today, when he suddenly heard bursts of applause and cheers in front of him.
When he looked up, he found that there were especially many people in the skating room today. At first glance, there were many new faces.
Can't help but wonder if I went to the wrong place.
Just as he was wondering, a beautiful figure slid past on the ice rink at high speed.
Like everyone else, Ruan Xiao looked along.
The person on the ice happened to make a forward-inward turn three times, facing Ruan Xiao's direction.
At the same time, Ruan Xiao saw clearly the people on the ice surrounded by crowd.
In an instant, he was slightly stunned.
Chen Mo didn't know when he came to Ruan Xiao's side and said, "Brother, are you here?"
Ruan Xiao blinked, lowered his eyelashes, swallowed his saliva, and looked at Chen Mo after regaining consciousness: "Yes."
Chen Mo tugged at Ruan Xiao's sleeve, and explained: "They are all contestants in this Grand Prix. I heard from Coach Xiao Kaiyang that the German team was supposed to arrive next week. I don't know why, but it was brought forward... ..."
Before the Grand Prix, figure skaters need to go to the host country to participate in the pre-competition training some time in advance, and the Century Skating Club is used as the training base of the national team, plus there is a high-standard skating room that is comparable to the competition venue. Every season, here is A designated location for training.
Xiao Kaiyang had already prepared, but the German team obviously arrived a week early, which caught him off guard, so he was busy with things first.
After hearing Chen Mo's explanation, Ruan Xiao smiled and said he understood.
He glanced around the sidelines again, and he really saw An Qiao sitting in the rest area.
There was still a suitcase next to An Qiao, and it was obvious that he hadn't had time to check into the hotel yet.
Chen Mo glanced at the direction of the ice rink, lowered his voice, a little embarrassed: "Coach Xiao Kaiyang asked me to ask you if you want to change the skating room for you..."
Hearing this, Ruan Xiao looked towards the direction of the ice rink, the person who was skating.
It was Bai Xiyu who left a year ago.
Bai Xiyu still looked cold and out of the dust, but when he was standing on the ice, something was different.
Looking at Bai Xiyu's slender figure with ease on the ice, his clean and neat way of changing blades, and just through those trivial habits, Ruan Xiao can see that Bai Xiyu has improved a lot compared to a year ago.
The control he showed when he was on the ice was even stronger.
Just at this time.
Bai Xiyu cast his gaze in this direction, and bumped into Ruan Xiao who was observing him.
Ruan Xiao subconsciously wanted to glance away, but he soon realized what he was thinking.
Frowning lightly, almost invisibly, he straightened his back secretly, and looked at Bai Xiyu across the crowd.
An arrogant mocking smile flashed across the corner of Bai Xiyu's lips.
Chen Mo still asked from the side: "Brother, do you want to change? If so, let's go..."
Ruan Xiao's voice was gentle and calm: "No change."
Chen Mo froze for a moment, glanced at Bai Xiyu, then at Ruan Xiao: "But Bai Xiyu..."
"No." Ruan Xiao looked at Chen Mo, slightly bent his eyes, and said, "Don't worry, he won't affect me."
After speaking, he went to the locker room as usual.
***
Say it doesn't matter, but that's completely blunt.
That day, Ruan Xiao was still rehearsing the black swan accompanied by Coach Yao. Although under Yunyan's guidance, the movements could basically meet the standard, but they were all like those carved out of the template, lacking emotion.
Ruan Xiao still couldn't get into Black Swan.
However, Bai Xiyu and An Qiao on the other side went much smoother and were admired and praised by the crowd.
Every time there was applause from the other end, Ruan Xiao's heart tightened, but he still insisted on focusing on his own training.
Until one time, Ruan Xiao couldn't bear it anymore and glanced at the field of the German team.
At this glance, Bai Xiyu was leaning against the guardrail, tilting his face slightly, and was talking to his teammates with a smile, but his eyes were always looking at this side.
With a swipe, Ruan Xiao's face turned red uncontrollably, and cold sweat broke out all of a sudden.
He always felt that Bai Xiyu was judging him, laughing at him, laughing at his substandard posture, laughing at him as just a jumping machine...
Ruan Xiao, who already couldn't let go, couldn't let go even more.
Ruan Xiao quickly put down the leg that was lifting the blade, slid to the sidelines, and turned his back on the pretense of drinking water, avoiding the sight that made his back feel like a needle prick.
It was like this until the end of training in the evening.
Ruan Xiao didn't plan to stay for practice, and wanted to go back early.
Just thinking about it, a call came from the ice: "Ean!"
Ruan Xiao followed the voice and saw a German team player waving towards the door, feeling very excited.
And standing at the door was Zhou Muye who had just walked in.
Not only the one who said hello, but two or three also slid towards the exit.
Ruan Xiao guessed that they were all members who had just been promoted to the senior group. When they were in the youth group, they probably could often meet Zhou Muye in competitions.
Soon, Zhou Muye was surrounded by several Germans.
An Qiao had seen Zhou Muye before when he was training at Yunyan's house, and he also slowly slid to the sidelines.
Ruan Xiao guessed that they were going to chat for a while, so he didn't go there, and leaned on the sidelines to wait for Zhou Muye.
At this time, a gust of wind blew past him.
Before Ruan Xiao could react, one person had already turned his back to the guardrail, put his hands on it, braked the car, and stopped beside him.
Ruan Xiao turned his head to look.
It's Bai Xiyu.
The two shared an ice rink, and they hadn't formally met each other for a whole day.
Ruan Xiao thought it would continue until the Grand Prix ended, but Bai Xiyu approached him first.
Bai Xiyu tilted his head to look at Ruan Xiao, with a relaxed expression, raised his lips and smiled: "Long time no see."
Ruan Xiao couldn't figure out why he came, and put one hand backward on the railing, with a bit of alienation: "Yeah."
Bai Xiyu looked Ruan Xiao up and down, then looked at Zhou Muye on the other side of the ice rink, raised his chin, and said, "I didn't expect you to be together."
Ruan Xiao didn't know what to say, so he didn't respond.
Bai Xiyu chuckled lightly: "Don't you suspect that he uses you as a substitute?"
Ruan Xiao frowned suddenly, feeling an inexplicable depression in his heart.
Now I can be sure, Bai Xiyu is here to find fault.
From the point of view of character, Bai Xiyu is almost the same as before.
Ruan Xiao kept his eyes on Zhou Muye who was talking with someone.
Zhou Muye's expression was dull, with a sense of alienation, but there was obvious patience when listening to people talking.
He looks dignified and willful, but he is very educated and gentle.
Ruan Xiao took a deep breath, suppressed the strange emotions in his heart, looked at Bai Xiyu, his face was neither humble nor overbearing, and asked in a delicate voice: "Whose substitute?"
Bai Xiyu narrowed his eyes lightly, flashed a smug look, and said inexplicably, "Everyone says you look like me..."
Ruan Xiao interrupted suddenly: "Stop dreaming."
Bai Xiyu paused for a moment: "What?"
"Like you?" Ruan Xiao blinked Heishuishui's beautiful eyes, looking serious and innocent, "You can't even touch porcelain with a good-looking person like me."
"..."
Bai Xiyu's expression froze for a moment.
Ruan Xiao glanced at Bai Xiyu's face, as if evaluating something, and after a while, said: "If you have one-tenth of my beauty, you probably don't need to rely on your strength."
Bai Xiyu stared sharply, pointing at Ruan Xiao: "You!"
However, Ruan Xiao raised the corners of his lower lips, with a happy smile on his face: "Mr. Zhou and I have a very good relationship, don't worry about it, just take care of yourself."
Then, without giving Bai Xiyu a chance to speak, he slid forward.
Leaving Bai Xiyu behind, Ruan Xiao quietly let out a sigh of relief.
This year, he didn't learn anything with Zhou Muye, but he learned a lot about being annoying.
The author has something to say:
Zhou Muye: Didn't learn anything?If you want to say that, I will teach you some practical content.
Ruan Xiao covered his ears.
