Volume 3 Chapter 12: Abandoning Martial Pursuits for Literary Ones

  In the gymnasium, Xinyue walked silently forward.

  She was confused, not understanding why she had come to learn Taekwondo. Was it to win over Qingchi? Looking at his arrogant appearance, she feared that she would never be able to beat him... She hated herself for being too soft-hearted! Even if her fists were hard enough, she might not have been able to bring herself to hit him... Was she born with a woman's heart after all? So it seemed that she was more suited to being a woman than a man! And Qingchi was perfectly suited to being a man! It was all destined, wasn't it?

  "Little sister, are you surnamed Xia?" A very handsome young man quickly caught up from behind Xiang Yue, and as he brushed past her, he seemed to realize something and stopped to ask with a smile.

  "Hmm, yeah! How did you know?" Xiang Yue asked innocently with wide eyes.

  "Hehe, your sister's name is Xia Enqi, right?" The handsome guy smiled even sweeter.

  "Oh, I remember! You're my sister's... friend!" Xiangyue remembered the photo her sister showed her.

  "Right! I'm your sister's friend! Are you here looking for someone?"

  "No, I attended a training class..."

  "Really? I've never met you before. What kind of training class is it?" The handsome guy asked with interest.

  "Yes, it's Taekwondo." Xinyue replied with difficulty.

  "What? Taekwondo? I didn't hear that wrong?"

  "No, it's just taekwondo! What, can't I learn this?" Xinyue's face turned slightly red as she asked back with a hint of shyness.

  "No, no, no! You're not suited for this! You should go learn how to dance! Have you ever danced before?"

  Xīn Yuè shook her head. She didn't know if the real Xīn Yuè had skipped, but when she was a boy before, she had no interest in dancing at all!

  "Come on, I'll take you somewhere!" The handsome guy pulled Xiangyue's hand and headed upstairs without giving her a chance to refuse.

  "Are you Xia Xinyue? My name is Xi Men Xuan, you can call me Brother Xi Men!"

  Xīn Yuè's face flushed red as she was led, like a little sheep, to the door of the "International Standard Dance Training Class" on the third floor.

  "I... I can't... " Xiangyue turned her head and wanted to run away.

  "Go take a look? You don't necessarily have to learn it." Ximen Xuan said persuasively.

  "But it's Taekwondo..."

  "Then don't learn it at all, it's not interesting! Today I'll let you see what art is!" Ximen Xuan said, pushing Xingyue into the door.

  After school, Qingchi quietly came to the small woods behind the mountain. He wanted to tell Xiangyue that he would work hard to be a good son and make his parents satisfied; at the same time, he also asked Xiangyue to be at ease being a good daughter... ... He also wanted to say she was lovely!

  Wait and wait, waited till the sky turned dark, but still didn't see Xiangyue's figure.

  。。。。。。

  You little scoundrel! Are you playing tricks on me? You think that since someone is flattering you, you can ignore me? Alright, let's just wait and see! Who can't do without whom!

  Qing Chi lost his patience and stormed out of the small woods.

  Xin Yue stood by the door, staring anxiously at the people inside the house.

  Here is different from the martial arts hall below, all four sides are mirrors. Xinyue sees some people chatting, while others are twisting in front of the mirror...

  "Wow, this little sister is so pretty!" an older sister exclaimed.

  Xin Yue smiled awkwardly and pursed her lips.

  "Hey, another new classmate?" A man with a ponytail at the back of his head and wearing tight-fitting clothes walked up to Xiangyue. He looked like a dancer, exuding artistic flair all over.

  "I...". Xīnyuè didn't know how to respond.

  "Oh, Professor Xing, I just brought her here to take a look, she's not mentally prepared yet." Xi Men Xuan said with a smile.

  "What a beautiful girl, it's a pity if you don't dance!" The dance teacher looked at Xinyue from head to toe and suddenly ordered: "Lift up your hands and let me see!"

  Xīn Yuè inexplicably raised one arm.

  "Put some strength into it, strive to lift it up! Right, that's it! Lift the other hand too! Like me, stretch upwards as much as possible..."

  Xīn Yuè imitated the teacher's posture and practiced it once.

  Suddenly, there was a burst of applause around her. Xinyue blushed and quickly put down her hands, looking flustered and lowering her eyelids in embarrassment.

  "Great! You're a born dancer!" The teacher smiled and said, "You know, with your good conditions, not learning dance would be a waste of talent!"

  "I, I really..."

  "Xīn Yuè, just give it a try! Consider it as practicing boxing! You're not really interested in Taekwondo, are you?" Xī Mén Xuān said.

  "It's not that I don't want to, it's just that I'm afraid I won't learn." Xinyue came up with all sorts of excuses, but in the end she was forced to stay. Because Xinyue couldn't bear to reject other people's kindness.

  Xin Yue knew that if Qing Chi were to change, he would only consider his own interests! No one can force him to do something he's not happy about. As for herself, she often thinks of others more than herself, is this a good point or a bad point?

  After training ended, Xi Men Xiao Ze enthusiastically invited Mei Zuo to say: "Tired? Let's go, Brother Xi Men is treating you to a midnight snack!"

  "Oh, thank you! It's too late, I still have to go back and do my homework!" Xinyue brushed it off, but in fact she didn't want to get too close to someone she had just met. Even if that person might be her sister's husband.

  "Is that so? Then let's change it for another day! Tomorrow I'll go help you transfer your membership, and you won't have to go to the martial arts hall again."

  "Alright." Xīnyuè said helplessly. In fact, she also knew that she had more talent for learning dance than martial arts, but what was the use of learning it? It's all because of this body! Why did she have a feeling for dance? It's really...

  "Don't think that dancing is useless! It can not only strengthen your body, but also bring out your beauty to the extreme! It's dynamic beauty!"

  "Simon, you love America, right?"

  "I don't deny this point, because beauty is something everyone pursues!"

  "Does my sister know you're studying dance here?" The two of them walked and chatted.

  "Shh, you have to keep this a secret for me! I'm thinking of surprising her at the right moment!"

  "Alright, fine! I won't say anything." Xīnyuè gave a gentle and elegant smile.

  Good heavens! How captivating! She looks even more beautiful than her sister... Ximen Yan couldn't help but be distracted.

  "Goodbye!" The two of them walked out of the gymnasium gate, Xiangyue waving goodbye to Simen Xuan.

  "Hey, don't be in a rush! Are you really not going to eat something? You'll definitely get hungry later, so why not have some?"

  "It's really none of your business! I'm going back!"

  "Then I'll give you a ride! I have a car."

  "Oh, I can catch the bus..."

  "Xīnyuè little sister, don't be so distant, okay? After all, I'm going to be your brother-in-law in the future! If your sister finds out that I abandoned you in the dark of night and didn't care for you, do you think I'd still have a life? Come with me!"

  Since things have been said to this extent, Xinyue had no choice but to obediently listen.
