Chapter 205: Chapter 172: Pas de Deux (Third Update) (Request for Monthly Votes)
Before the official start of filming today, the two had already done some basic practice for the MV’s dance routine.
He Zhichen said that this couple’s dance was very simple; it didn’t need to be practiced too much. The key was to keep up with the rhythm and coordinate the steps of both parties; that would be sufficient.
The rest could entirely rely on editing, and with post-production treatment, coupled with music, a very gorgeous effect could be achieved.
So, in previous practices, the two did not hold hands and merely followed the motions... Gan Yanyu didn’t mention it, and Lin Tian resolutely kept quiet.
The two seemed to have reached some strange kind of tacit agreement.
It’s indeed bizarre to practice a couple’s dance without holding hands. Anyone who would see it would find it odd. Yet, in this regard, they really harmoniously maintained consensus.
So now, this was the first time.
The official one.
"..."
"Okay."
With her head hung slightly red, Gan Yanyu gently nodded in response to Lin Tian’s invitation.
She took Lin Tian’s hand.
Soft and small, in the palm of Lin Tian’s hand.
"Mr. Gan... did you... perhaps extend the wrong hand?" Lin Tian asked somewhat embarrassedly.
Gan Yanyu looked down at her hand and realized for the first time that she had taken Lin Tian’s left hand with her own left, and as the two stood facing each other, formed a "Z" shape.
What kind of international leaders’ meeting.
"I’m sorry..."
Gan Yanyu hurriedly withdrew her left hand and extended her right hand.
She placed her palm onto Lin Tian’s.
This time, they were truly linked.
"..."
But as soon as they lifted their hands above shoulder level, Gan Yanyu found herself guided to Lin Tian’s shoulder.
The two stood side by side, not looking like they were dancing, but as if twisting in a harvest dance.
Their posture turned into a "W" again.
It felt...
weird.
"No, no, no..."
Lin Tian quickly let go, as if pondering something quite serious.
Then, with a spark of inspiration, he stood in front of Gan Yanyu and said, with an earnest expression, fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm
"Raise your hand."
Gan Yanyu lifted her hand, her fist poised next to her ear, determined as if preparing to take an oath of party membership.
"Open your palm."
Gan Yanyu then unfolded her fist.
Just as she did—
In the next second, Lin Tian’s hand clasped hers, fingers interlocked, enveloping the girl’s palm.
Firmly grasping it.
Then, his other hand went around the girl’s waist.
"This is more like it." Lin Tian said with a smile.
Gan Yanyu’s pupils dilated slightly, suddenly feeling her cheeks burning hot.
"Let’s go."
Lin Tian said.
Immediately after.
The accompanying music from the phone began to play.
Following the rhythm, the two moved their feet lightly in a secluded corner of the café.
"..."
This scene quickly caught the attention of the other trainees.
"Look... they’ve started dancing!"
"Miss Cat is so beautiful... No wonder she’s a match for Mr. Moonlight..."
"Oooh, do they even need to dance with those faces? Just standing there is a pleasure to watch..."
"Hey... aren’t Moonlight and Cat just friends?"
"It’s just you who talks too much!!"
"..."
Thump, thump.
This was the sound of Gan Yanyu’s heartbeat.
A sense of calm chaos.
What’s going on...
The girl continuously followed Lin Tian’s steps.
They crossed back and forth on the wooden floor.
The touch of Lin Tian’s palm always lingering at her waist, holding Lin Tian’s right hand, had also started to sweat slightly.
From the planning of this MV,
to deciding to dance together,
to practice,
to official filming.
Evidently, the matter of "holding hands"... was an implicit and natural expectation.
The two of them had never discussed the matter, nor had they explored it. As partners, was it inappropriate or could they complete the task smoothly?
It seemed as if the connotation brought by "holding hands" had been tacitly ignored by both.
As long as they immersed themselves in the MV’s concerns, they could naturally and smoothly transition to holding hands. No mention, no words, just like that, quietly and imperceptibly, they reached this step...
But when they truly held hands and began to dance,
Gan Yanyu realized it wasn’t so simple.
The heartbeat was real, the sensation in the palm was real, and the distance between Lin Tian’s face and her own was a mere ten-plus centimeters and genuinely so.
For some reason,
She really...
Couldn’t help but want to laugh.
As the piano’s variations began, Lin Tian released his hold from around Gan Yanyu’s waist.
The girl spun out, and as she turned back, her purple skirt flared with the dancing rhythm, and the gossamer wrapped around her elbows.
Lin Tian’s eyes suddenly widened.
The sapphire earrings slightly swayed, Gan Yanyu extended her hand towards him, smiling brilliantly...
It was irresistible...
A mix of helplessness and amusement filled Lin Tian’s heart.
So, Mr. Gan.
Since you entered the door just now.
What have you been smiling about...?
If you’re that happy,
Let me in on it too, won’t you?
"..."
Lin Tian quickly grabbed the girl’s hand, pulling Gan Yanyu towards him!
A spin, and she was back in Lin Tian’s arms.
The trainees suddenly let out a cheer.
Following,
To the vibrant "One Step Away," the two danced their way from the corner all the way to the middle of the café!
By this time, all the equipment and staff on site were ready. Seeing this scene, everyone was stunned. They put down their work and watched the two dance as if attending a grand performance up close.
"So... amazing!"
"They have such great chemistry with such a fast dance!"
"So youthful... it reminds me of my student days..."
"I feel they’d be more suitable to debut as idols, not just as professional musicians."
"No way, if they’re not a couple, I’ll be really upset!"
"....."
While everyone was whispering among themselves, He Zhichen quickly called out to the director,
"Start filming, what are you waiting for!"
Such a good moment, we should save it as material first!
The director immediately understood and hurriedly signaled the photographers to start filming.
But the next second—
"Ah—"
With a cry,
Their dance abruptly stopped.
The shot froze on Lin Tian’s foot, which had stepped on Gan Yanyu’s high heel.
"Sorry, Mr. Gan!"
Lin Tian sheepishly retracted his foot.
In fact, during the dance, they had stepped on each other’s feet a couple of times already...
But this time, Lin Tian got carried away, stepping down a bit too harshly.
"It’s nothing... we haven’t really practiced much anyway."
Gan Yanyu spoke softly, withdrawing her foot.
"Alright, alright."
He Zhichen stood up and signaled everyone,
"Let’s record the music first, then we can shoot the dance later."
The plan for this MV was to make a "standard MV-like" and a "live performance version." For the former, they would record the music in the studio; the latter was a special treat carefully prepared by Lin Tian.
So, the first step now was to record the content of the live ensemble.
"Let’s go."
"Yes."
Lin Tian let go of Gan Yanyu’s hand. His heart was still pounding and showed no sign of slowing.
His palm, all damp with the girl’s lingering sweat.
Not much exercise, yet he had sweated quite a bit.
He glanced at Gan Yanyu’s face...
Dammit.
How come she looks even cuter after dancing?
Lin Tian resisted the urge to look at Gan Yanyu.
He rubbed his hands on his clothes, then walked towards the camera.
Gan Yanyu followed behind Lin Tian’s tall figure. When no one was paying attention, she lifted her hand to her nose and gently sniffed...
Then quickly walked up as well.
