Chapter Sixteen My nickname is Golden Ding

  Jung Soo-yeon and Yuri in the dormitory.

  After taking a bath and having dinner, Zheng Xiuyan sat in front of her desk, pulled out her Chinese textbook, and was about to start reading. Unintentionally, the scene of reading on the long bench at school this afternoon flashed through her mind again, feeling so comfortable and relaxed. Zheng Xiuyan glanced around her room, then looked back at her Chinese textbook, and her gaze fell on her small bed.

  "Ah, it's really comfortable reading like this!" Zheng Xiuyan lay down on the soft little bed, using a book to block out the dazzling light, holding the book high above her arm, and lifting up her slender white legs, carefully savoring the Chinese textbook that used to put her to sleep at first glance.

  "Psst!" Yuri, with her hair still smelling of chocolate wrapped in a towel after washing it, walked into Jung Soo-yeon's room holding a bowl of yam juice.

  "Hmm?" Zheng Xiuyan glanced sideways at Yuri sitting beside her bed and then shifted her gaze back to the book.

  "When did you start liking reading like this? It's so bad for your eyes!"

  "It's just like this, when you're tired of looking, you can sleep."

  "Namiko Aki, you're really desk mates with him?"

  "That's right, it was arranged by Han Sun-mi at the beginning of school."

  "Is he the one you mentioned before, who is even weirder than you, doesn't attend classes but still gets first place, and sits in front of you?"

  "Right!"

  "You, have a crush on him, right?" Yuri seemed quite certain, but couldn't quite grasp it. Being hesitant wasn't her style, so after coming back to eat and take a bath, she finally couldn't hold it in and came over to ask.

  "What's wrong with you!" Zheng Xiuyan turned over, snatched the yam juice from Yuri's hand, and took a light sip. "Yuri, you've added chocolate sauce to the yam juice again! Drinking it will turn your skin black!"

  "It's great with chocolate syrup! If you don't like it, then don't drink it! My skin isn't black, it's healthy!" Yuri snatched back her sweet potato juice and took a big gulp, let out a satisfied burp, and gave Zheng Xiu Yan a "you just don't get it" look.

  "Where's Jinting? It's almost 9 o'clock and he still hasn't come back?"

  "Who knows, since the last time she was defeated by a mysterious person, she's been practicing dance and has been coming back very late these few nights, maybe she went to catch that guy for revenge!" Yuri stood up, holding the empty sweet potato juice cup, and walked out of Jung Soo-yeon's room.

  ……

  "I, what's wrong..." Mu Zi Qiu kept asking himself all the way, what was wrong with him? That girl, how could he have that feeling? The night by the Han River was much cooler than other places, but even the river breeze carrying water vapor couldn't disperse the mist swirling in Mu Zi Qiu's mind. At the Jiangbin Park by the Han River in Xinsadong, there was a very special patch of grass. This patch of grass was hidden inside the rest area of the riverside path, and outside the railing was the flood control dam of the Han River, which was very high and close to the riverbank. By leaning on the railing, one could see all the scenery of the river between the two big bridges...

  "I... was still thinking about that girl..."

  "Hey! I've finally caught up with you! Don't think that just because you're wearing a pair of tacky glasses, I won't recognize you! I can tell a turtle from a tortoise!" Just as Muzi Qiu was gazing out at the river view, his mind racing, a brown-haired girl stood up from the bench, her voice carrying a hint of childishness, shouting at him.

  "Who are you?" Mu Zi Qiu was puzzled, this place was very secluded, he came here because it was a place where he occasionally practiced dance, tonight his mood was complicated, and he just wanted to come and blow the river wind.

  "You forgot about me? I've been waiting for you here for several days!" Jin Xiaoyuan couldn't help but feel a sense of grievance in his heart, having practiced the dance diligently for an entire month just to win him over.

  "I don't know you!" Ignoring that strange girl, Muzi Qiu continued to blow his own wind, untangling the messy threads in his mind.

  "A month ago, right here! You won me! Tonight I'm going to win back!"

  "No time!" A month ago? Was it her? That night, he came here to practice dancing in a good mood, how did he start comparing dances and forget about it, the final result was that he slightly won at popping, after all, popping is still a dance that requires strength, boys have an advantage from birth.

  "Tonight you're going to lose to me! I've been practicing with the dance teacher for a long time, learning every day and practicing every day. You won against me that day, but I'm not convinced! Look at me, I've already controlled my strength well, and each move I make will jump out with power!" Without caring whether Muzi Qiu was watching or not, Jin Xiaoyuan started jumping up on the spot.

  "Shut up!" Mu Zi Qiu didn't want to bother with her, originally just wanting to find a quiet spot. Who would have thought that this place he considered quiet was disrupted by this girl? Without thinking, Mu Zi Qiu moved his feet and left the grassy area.

  "Don't go! You didn't lose to me, I won't be able to sleep at night!" Kim Hyo-yeon thought she was the most talented dance queen among her peers, and even the teachers in the company said she was the next generation's dance queen after BoA. But just by chance, she met this guy while taking a walk and lost! For the sake of her pride as a dance queen, to regain her confidence in dancing, for this one month, she endured a lot of hardship, studying hard every day, all for the sake of winning once!

  "Are you a primary school student?" Looking at her appearance, she's at least as old as I am, why bother with this?

  "How did you know my nickname? My friends all call me Jin Chudin!"

  “……”

  "I'm serious, let's have another match! Just one more, if I win, I'll leave you alone!"

  "Great!" Tonight's mood is chaotic, sweating a bit to exhaust myself is good! This way I won't think too much! Yes, I won't think too much.

  "Then we..." Jin Xiaoquan's words were left unfinished as Mu Ziqiu had already thrown down her backpack and jumped up on her own!

  Muzi's growth was relatively slow, and even at the age of 14, his height was only over 1.6 meters, which was still a result of his long-term dance training. Because he could enter DSP freely, his vocals were not good, and under Lee Hyori's influence, he could only practice dancing. Lee Hyori was skilled in Jazz and Wave, but Jazz was generally more suitable for women, so Muzi didn't learn it and instead focused on Wave. At the same time, he also liked Popping, and years of practice allowed him to master both styles.

  Wave emphasizes the twisting of the whole body, and this twisting brings a wave that is very visually appealing, so it's also called wave dance or electric current dance. Muzi Qiu uses all his might to jump out every move, stretching out his left hand from the joints of his fingers to his elbow joint, with a rhythmic wave rolling over, the wave crosses his shoulder, head and rushes to his right hand, then returns from his right hand and rushes back to his left hand! From the cervical vertebrae to the lumbar vertebrae, the entire spine is like a moving snake, swinging the body left and right, with the legs adjusting the balance of the body with the knee joint as the axis, at this time Muzi Qiu looks like a tsunami wave, surging in place!

  "Do you jump wave? Don't you jump poping?" Wave Kim Hyo-yeon is also good at it, but recently she lost in poping and has been practicing hard! The most important thing for jumping wave is the continuity of the waves. Although it's spring now, wearing two layers of clothes is still necessary. Although they're not very thick, if you don't take off your outerwear while dancing, some subtle movements are hard to see, which would damage the continuity of the waves. Muzi Qiu didn't even take off her big black-framed glasses! But Kim Hyo-yeon can see every movement of her joints clearly...

  "I... lost again..." Just by looking at the start, Kim Hyo-yeon knew that she absolutely couldn't win against him on Wave. Last time she lost on Popping, and this time she lost on Wave too. As a future dance hope of the company, she couldn't bear the frustration and resentment in her heart, and with her childish personality, she plopped down on the grass and burst into tears...

  Two strange people appeared on the lawn, one dancing alone and the other crying alone.
