CHAPTER 588: CHAPTER 353: THOUGHTS (PART 3)

"This child, the more time you spend with her, the more you can’t help but feel pity for her." Su Sha smiled as she smoothed her hair, "You’re right, when you’re serious about accepting a person, the way you see her is different."

Qiao Xiaowan came over with a sweet smile, "Aunt Shasha, does that mean you’re starting to find me more and more pleasant to the eye?"

Su Sha nodded in satisfaction, "Xiao Wan is doing well. When I return, I’ll definitely speak to Tsinghua about Xiao Wan’s sensibility and make her happy too."

"The thing my mom is happiest about is hoping to have a son-in-law like Brother Xiao Xuan," sighed Qiao Xiaowan. "It seems her wish won’t be fulfilled."

"Xiao Wan..." Su Sha stroked her head, at a loss for words.

"Aunt Shasha, I’m just saying it casually, don’t take it to heart. My affection for Brother Xiao Xuan won’t change, but I won’t be as willful as I used to be," Qiao Xiaowan took a deep breath. "The next program is my solo, I’ll go wait now. It’s also a good chance to watch Luo Ye’s performance." With that, Qiao Xiaowan waved her hand and headed towards the performers’ entrance.

"Who would have thought, this child has changed so much recently," Su Sha sighed with a touch of melancholy. "If she had always been like this, Xiao Xuan might have liked her, that’s also a possibility."

Lin Tuanzhang patted her on the back, "You know, you have a big flaw; you’re too easily swayed. You were already planning to accept Luo Ye, but seeing Xiao Wan, you still can’t stop pondering. It’s only right to be concerned about the romantic relationships of your children, and since you’ve determined the other party is an outstanding girl and your son likes her, what more regrets could you have?"

"Sister Lin, I understand the logic, but after all, Xiao Wan is a child I watched grow up. The feelings are naturally somewhat different," sighed Su Sha. "Let’s stop pondering this. I’ll go on stage and watch Ye’er’s performance, to avoid getting anxious here."

"I’ll go and have a look too," Lin Tuanzhang shook her head helplessly. "Xiao Wan’s pair of shoes has been making me anxious."

Bai Yan had just finished announcing the program and came over. Seeing the two heading to the stage, she smiled and stood aside, "Lin Tuanzhang, Su Tuanzhang, move over here, you’ll have an unobstructed view of the whole show."

The cheery tune of "Little Friends" started, and Luo Ye gave Li Yan and Qianqian a smile, offering her hand, and the two glided to the center of the stage with perfect coordination.

The biggest characteristic of tango is the interweaving of motion and stillness, the abrupt and powerful changes. The brief pauses in the flow should be upright and strong, and the slanting and sideways movements should not be sluggish. In fact, to perfectly interpret this dance, besides a good dance foundation and rhythm, another important requirement is physical strength.

This is precisely where Luo Ye had an edge over Qiao Xiaowan. Besides, with her tight and long legs, slender waist, perfect outfit matching her perfect physique, and her robust coordination with the strong Li Yan, it was an absolute feast for the eyes!

Qiao Xiaowan craned her neck to watch the dancing figures on the stage, her gaze firmly fixed on Luo Ye’s shoes, her fists clenched with tension.

Stealing a glance at her watch, a smile curled up at the corner of her lips. She took a deep breath and kept her eyes fixed on Luo Ye, unblinking.

A familiar performer behind her surveyed her curiously, whispering to another performer, "Nina, we’ve been in the same group with Qiao Xiaowan for so long; when have you seen her this anxious about a fellow performer’s show?"

"I feel she’s more nervous than when she performs. That girl..." after glancing at Luo Ye, the one called Nina shook her head, "I think Qiao Xiaowan is more likely feeling jealous. For this round of hosting, Luo Ye clearly has an advantage. I heard that Luo Ye is Vice Commander Su’s daughter-in-law. Do you think, Qiao Xiaowan would like her?"

"Really?"

"Uncertain, but those who went to find Su Tuan said that they seemed to have heard some rumors."

"To become the daughter-in-law of Su Tuan, that’s really too lucky. Not to mention anything else, just how handsome Su Tuan’s son is; I haven’t seen a second one like him in my life. That kind of man, even if you look every day, you can’t get enough."

"Xiaoqing, look at you acting all lovesick," joked Nina, her gaze returning to the stage, unable to help but exclaim, "But Luo Ye’s dance skill is really impressive."

"Indeed, if it weren’t for that incident with Qiao Xiaowan, she definitely wouldn’t have given up this song to Luo Ye." Suddenly, Xiaoqing revealed a look of realization, "I guess she’s so anxious because she’s hoping in her heart that Luo Ye will make a fool of herself."

First watch is here, a Chapter of 4000 words, another one is coming, also a 4000-word Chapter, around 10 o’clock.
