    The world's first crowdsourcing-driven asian bl novel translation community

    Several judges and teachers announced that one of the students in the Lingque Art Class had the opportunity to enter Esmera.

    Including Ling Que's teacher and classmates, everyone was excited.

    God knows how difficult it is to get into the Esmera Art Center, there is more than one pick in a thousand miles. In this national selection, among the thousands of students in so many art classes across the country, only a hundred or so seedlings were selected—

    "Our art class didn't all die in action!"

    "This is too long!"

    "Who will it be!"

    "Who else, must be Fan Danxi, who is more qualified to enter Esmera than her."

    "But I think Jiang Yu dances well too."

    "One thing to say, Jiang Yu is actually better at dancing."

    "You bastards."

    "It's just a matter of fact, everyone can see it with long eyes."

    "I haven't discovered it before, Jiang Yu is really a dark horse potential stock."

    ......

    Xue Jiayi glanced at the five nervous classmates on the stage, and slowly pronounced the name——

    "Huang Jiali."

    ? !

    As soon as the name was pronounced, the auditorium was suddenly silent, and then, the students whispered in a low voice——

    "What the hell! It's not even her turn!"

    "It's either Fan Danxi or Jiang Yu, she's not even a single star worse than these two!"

    "I'm shocked, is it because Huang Jiali and Xue Jiayi both have the word Jia in their names, did Xue Jiayi choose her!"

    "Esmera's selection criteria are a mystery."

    ......

    Hearing Huang Jiali's name, Jiang Yu's mind was a little dull.

    Although she didn't think that she would make steady progress, she never thought that she would lose to Huang Jiali.

    She has seen Huang Jiali's dance, and to be honest, she doesn't think it is very good, at most it is quite satisfactory.

    Jiang Yu was dissatisfied, and of course Fan Danxi was even more dissatisfied.

    She has already reached a tacit understanding, why is she still eliminated...

    Taking 10,000 steps back and losing to Jiang Yu, she can still accept it convincingly, but losing to Huang Jiali... If you need talent but no talent, you need a family without a family background, why!

    Fan Danxi has never suffered such grievances before, and immediately raised an objection: "I'm no worse than Huang Jiali, why should I choose her! I protest against Esmera's selection criteria!"

    Xue Jiayi looked at Fan Danxi calmly and did not respond immediately.

    She had had a meal with the Fan family before with the help of a friend, and when she went to the dinner, she knew that she was going to ask for admission.

    At that time, she did not agree, nor did she not agree. The most important thing is that they didn't receive gifts from their family.

    Therefore, even at this time, there will be no problem.

    Xue Jiayi asked calmly, "Student Fan Danxi, where do you think she is not qualified?"

    "She...she doesn't dance well at all, it's just because of repeated training and high proficiency in movements. She doesn't jump at all in many movements...she has no talent at all."

    "So, do you think that diligence and talent are more important than talent?"

    "Of course." Fan Danxi gritted his teeth and said, "I don't have talent, is diligence useful? In the end, it will not become a foil, just like them, it will become the background of the stage."

    After speaking, she looked at the girls under the stage.

    The girls usually gather around Fan Danxi in clusters, but she didn't expect that at a critical moment, she would actually use them as a negative example.

    The girls felt a little uncomfortable in their hearts.

    But it is undeniable that Fan Danxi is right. They are the foil on the stage. Whether it is a big swan or a little swan, they are not the swan queen.

    Xue Jiayi did not immediately refute Fan Danxi, but said: "You are right, compared with talent, diligence is indeed not worth mentioning. But let me ask you a question, do you think a perfect stage is only one of the queen of swans. Will the audience pay for the performance?"

    Fan Danxi was asked.

    She hadn't thought about this, because from the time she got into ballet, the goal she set in her heart was to become a brilliant heroine.

    Xue Jiayi had a bit of contempt in her eyes: "You can become Bu Tanyan if you don't put on Bu Tanyan's shoes. There is only one swan queen. But the stage is supported by those little swans and whooper swans like background cloth. Therefore, talent is important, but rather than talent, our selection criteria for the Esmera F class pay more attention to the diligence of students. This is also the reason why we chose Huang Jiali.”

    Fan Danxi was still confused, but Jiang Yu, who was beside her, suddenly understood.

    There is only one Bu Tanyan in the world, but there are thousands of ballet dancers.

    This is why Esmera's F class has a hundred people, while the ABC class adds up to less than 50 people.

    In fact, the criteria for selecting people from the two tutors today have been discussed a long time ago. They do not choose the most talented person, nor the best dancer. They only choose the ones that are most needed in class F...

    That person cannot be proud, cannot be complacent, and at the same time is willing to be ordinary and willing to be a foil.

    She understands it thoroughly, understands the rules of this circle.

    Bai Shuyi saw the disillusionment in Jiang Yu's eyes, she raised her head and asked, "Jiang Yu, looking at your expression, you don't seem to be very convinced, do you?"

    "I respect your choice." Jiang Yu raised his head and looked at Bai Shuyi: "But is it fair for you to do this?"

    For the final evaluation, they worked hard day and night, trying their best to be the best, but... they lost to the so-called "rules" in the end.

    The "rules" to pick...not the best one.

    "This circle has never been fair." Bai Shuyi said clearly to Jiang Yu: "This is the cruelty of the adult world, Jiang Yu, I hope today's events can help you understand a little about society."

    "Mr. Bai Shuyi, I know the cruelty of this world. But I still firmly believe that ballet is pure. Maybe some people use it to gain fame and fortune, but if you dance only for fame and fortune, you will never be able to dance the feeling of beauty."

    Looking at the sharp light in her eyes and the courage of the newborn calf to not be afraid of tigers, she was exactly the same as Bu Tanyan back then.

    Bai Shuyi listened to her words, and suddenly felt stabbed in the sore spot!

    Yes! Why can't she reach Bu Tanyan in her whole life!

    Bu Tanyan dances, never for any competition or trophy. She can dance on the street where people come and go, or on the deserted grass. She can dance when she is happy or when she is unhappy...

    That's why she is so beautiful and strong. The 32 "whip turns" of a black swan amazed the world.

    Who can not fall for her!

    Xue Jiayi laughed, her eyes filled with absurdity: "Over the years, I have seen people more arrogant than you, but do you know where they are now? These people don't even have names. And you will be one of them. ."

    Jiang Yu clenched his fist tightly and said word by word, "I will never."

    At this moment, only a high-pitched female voice sounded——

    "Of course she won't!"

    Everyone looked back at the entrance of the auditorium, and saw a tall, thin woman walking in.

    The moment Jiang Yu saw her, she was as surprised as she was losing the election today.

    That woman is... Jiang Manyi!

    Mom is here!

    Why did she come? Did she come to arrest her and go home!

    For a time, countless thoughts flashed through Jiang Yu's mind.

    She just confronted Bai Shuyi, she was not afraid, but now she is a little scared.

    She watched helplessly as Jiang Manyi walked into the auditorium, her light-colored woolen coat was stained with frost and snow. After entering the house, she took off her cold-proof mask, revealing a gorgeous face.

    Jiang Manyi went straight to Xue Jiayi and Bai Shuyi.

    Xue Jiayi glanced at the woman in front of her.

    The clothes she wears are of ordinary quality, but they are made into designer styles, which are at most high imitations, no more than five hundred. The bag in his hand is also an ordinary cloth bag.

    Xue Jiayi frowned and asked, "Who are you?"

    "I'm her mother, Jiang Manyi."

    Jiang Manyi and the two teachers are of the same age, and both have the charm of a mature woman, but Jiang Manyi's body is even heavier.

    It can't compare to Xue Jiayi's elite temperament, and it can't compare to Bai Shuyi's full-fledged ladylike flavor.

    Xue Jiayi said in a sarcastic tone, "You may not feel comfortable when you say this about your daughter, but as teachers, we must tell the truth that your daughter cannot enter Esmera."

    Jiang Manyi looked at Xue Jiayi and asked, "Esmela is yours?"

    "This..."

    She looked at Bai Shuyi again: "Is it yours?"

    Bai Shuyi said calmly: "As the chief teacher, we have the right to select students under the sole discretion of the general meeting of shareholders."

    "As far as I know, Esmera's biggest boss is Xie Yuan."

    "It's Mr. Xie."

    "Then I suggest you give him a call and ask him if Jiang Yu wants to enter Esmeira, and he will let him in."

    Bai Shuyi and Xue Jiayi looked at each other.

    Xue Jiayi said excitedly, "What do you mean?"

    "What do I mean, you'll know if you ask him."

    Bai Shuyi said: "Ms. Jiang, I am afraid you have misunderstood Mr. Xie. Even if you or your daughter know him, it will not affect today's results. Mr. Xie is definitely not the kind of person who can open the back door."

    Jiang Manyi smiled: "Is he such a person? Let's talk about it later. I'm here today, just to ask the two teachers, is it really because she has no potential or is it because of fear?"

    Xue Jiayi sneered: "What am I afraid of?"

    "You're afraid that she will become the second Bu Tanyan." Jiang Manyi's eyes clasped at them: "The woman you can't surpass in your entire life."

    Xue Jiayi looked at Jiang Manyi in shock, her blue veins bursting out: "You are talking nonsense!"

    Jiang Man said eloquently: "You know very well whether I'm talking nonsense!"

    Jiang Yu on the stage was stupid, how could her mother... say such a thing!

    Didn't she lock the door in the morning to prevent her from participating in the competition!

    Was she out of anger and deranged?

    "What's going on with your Lingque Art Class, drive this irrelevant person out!" Xue Jiayi finally couldn't hold back her emotions and shouted excitedly: "Security guard, drive this nonsense person away!"

    Jiang Manyi ignored Xue Jiayi's rage, took out a pair of old ballet shoes from the cloth bag she was carrying, and said calmly—

    "Come on, Mr. Xue, recognize it. Are the English words starting with the letter b on the sole of the shoe from Mr. Xue's handwriting when you were young?"

    After she finished speaking, she handed the old pair of white satin dancing shoes to Xue Jiayi.

    Xue Jiayi recognized the dancing shoes at a glance.

    She trembled uncontrollably, as if she had fallen into an endless dark night nightmare.

    Bu Tanyan's beautiful face appeared in her mind, her frown and smile, for her, were endless abyss and nightmares.

    Xue Jiayi picked up the dancing shoes tremblingly, the vague handwriting on the soles was precisely her "masterpiece"——
