Translator: Henyee Translations | Editor: Henyee Translations
Lin He’s eyes flickered slightly, revealing a hint of puzzlement.
Although the swan dance was not an extremely rare dance, seeing it twice in a single competition was uncommon.
Having been in this line of work for a long time, it was inevitable for her to subconsciously think of many things.
While everyone was whispering and exchanging thoughts, the stage lights suddenly went out.
Instantly, everyone’s attention was drawn to the stage.
Gracefully, Lin He walked onto the stage. Because of the dim lights, people could only vaguely see a white silhouette.
” What’s going on? Is it a problem with the stage lights?” The audience whispered in confusion.
All the competition participants were already on stage, so why weren’t the lights on?
Feng Mo became increasingly uneasy and quickly took out his walkie-talkie to contact the backstage staff to check the lighting issue.
However, at that moment, the white silhouette on the stage suddenly moved.
Lin He remained unaffected.
She raised one leg, performing a highly difficult bending motion, and then held still.
This movement successfully piqued the audience’s curiosity.
Most people wanted to know what this contestant would perform next, while others began criticizing online about the organizer’s equipment failure.
Lu Si looked puzzled and asked, “She’s been on stage for almost a minute, but she hasn’t danced at all. Do you know why?”
Mei Shu remained calm and replied, “She’s waiting for the right moment.”
“The right moment?” Lu Si furrowed her brows and looked back at the stage.
At this moment, under the dim light, the pure white silhouette stood on one leg in a strange posture, stable on the stage.
Her long skirt resembled an open fan, and the outline was so attractive that people wanted to see her face clearly.
Lin He calculated the timing, and just as the audience’s curiosity and patience reached a critical point, she suddenly moved her leg again. This time, she gently placed her foot down as if testing something, carefully tapping the ground.
With one hand holding the skirt in an arc, the skirt unfolded like the wings of a swan under her long arm.
She leaned her head forward, looking around as if she were more curious than the live audience, as agile as a swan freely roaming the fields.
Just as the audience held their breath, wanting to see what she would perform next, the lights suddenly came on, dazzling everyone. Finally, they could see her face clearly.
Lin He was no longer in the prime of youth, but her attire today added a touch of playfulness to her.
The white headdress adorned her charming and lovely appearance.
The white long skirt, without moving, seemed to convey the fluctuation of her facial expressions, as if it were the flawless wings of a swan.
Her figure was excellent, beneath a slender neck lay delicate collarbones, and her brows and eyes carried both joy and fear. Her face, partially obscured by a long skirt as she kept peeking and probing, finally revealed its entirety.
It wasn’t a face that could topple nations with its beauty, but it somehow made people feel comfortable and joyful.
Without exception, the audience’s emotions were stirred by her every move.
They watched as she used superb dance techniques to portray the swan’s tentative and cautious exploration of human society, gradually letting go of her guard and revealing her lively spirit. They watched as she randomly pulled an audience member onto the stage to cooperate with her performance.
A beautiful swan full of curiosity about everything, wanting to make friends with humans, and no one would refuse.
The audience member, led by her hand onto the stage, was initially at a loss but soon captivated by her adorable movements, reminiscent of a swan, forgetting that he was on stage and feeling as if he was in the boundless wilderness. The princess-like figure before him became the most unforgettable encounter of his life.
As the performance on stage intensified, the stage lights went out again.
This time, there were no voices of dissatisfaction among the audience, only curiosity about what Lin He would perform next.
Even Mei Shu subconsciously held her breath.
Lu Si squeezed her hand slightly to bring her back from her reverie. “This time it must be a stage accident.”
Mei Shu turned to him abruptly, her face filled with astonishment. “How do you know?”
“Because even though the lights on stage were off just now, the lights above the audience were still on. But this time, all the lights in the venue went out,” Lu Si said, pinching Mei Shu’s chin accurately, gesturing for her to look up.
Indeed!
Just now, Lin He’s performance was so novel and outstanding that she hadn’t noticed!
Mei Shu quickly lowered her gaze and sent a message to Tang Mei.
Backstage.
Ruan Ning stared at the live video of the competition venue on her phone, smirking arrogantly. “Lin He, I want to see what else you can do!”
“Eh? How come the lights on our side are off too?” Meng Yan, in the middle of applying makeup, almost smudged her lipstick when the lights went out just now.
Ruan Ning’s cold voice came from behind Meng Yan, “It seems to be a problem with the entire competition venue this time. I wonder what kind of rubbish equipment the company contracted to build the venue used.”
