    The show has started, the lights in the audience area in the auditorium are dimmed, and the spotlight is focused on the stage.

    Huo Cheng returned to the seat in the back row of the auditorium with a terrifyingly low face.

    A friend around him asked him, "Brother Cheng, how is your sister-in-law's preparation?"

    "Nonsense, my sister-in-law can win the grand prize every year, so why don't you ask?"

    "But speaking of it, my sister-in-law has been to the party for two years in a row, and she dances the same dance every year..."

    "Cough, it's none of your business, I like to watch it, don't watch it, get out, sister-in-law, you can talk nonsense."

    ......

    Huo Cheng listened to their conversation, like a throat stuck in his throat, irritable.

    Before Jiang Yu took the initiative to break up, Huo Cheng's face was very difficult, so he just broke up.

    It happened that Tao Anxin, who could not be in love, threw an olive branch to him again during this time. The relationship between the two quickly warmed up and they soon got together.

    It stands to reason that the person he likes is Tao Anxin, and Jiang Yu is just a temporary substitute for Tao Anxin.

    But just now in the corridor in the backstage, he felt extremely angry when he saw Jiang Yu and Qiu Li so intimate.

    After the anger, there are waves of disappointment...

    Before, he didn't think Jiang Yu had any good, quiet, obedient, but obedient, but like boiled water, there was no taste.

    I don't hate it, but don't like it either.

    He treats her very casually, no matter how he treats her, she won't leave, she needs him to provide shelter...

    Huo Cheng never thought that one day Jiang Yu would no longer need himself.

    She has a life of her own and has a distinct character, like a rebellious little beast who will bite him if she is caught off guard.

    It still hurts to bite.

    Huo Cheng kicked on the chair in the front row. The boys in the front row turned back in dissatisfaction, about to have a seizure. Seeing that it was Huo Cheng, he died embarrassedly.

    The Huo family is powerful and powerful in Beicheng, and he is the only son of the Huo family. He holds the pearl in his hand, and has developed a reckless and perverse character. No one can provoke him.

    Qiu Li walked in from the side door in the backstage. Because there was no room left, he could only walk to the last row of the auditorium, stand in the shadow against the wall, and wait for the start of the game.

    Huo Cheng's eyes have been following him, and the more he looks, the more annoying he feels.

    "Who is he?"

    Jiang Jingwei followed Huo Cheng's gaze and said, "Brother Cheng, don't you know that guy?"

    Huo Cheng raised his jaw and said softly, "Why should I know about him?"

    "Uh, he is quite famous in our school." Jiang Jingwei saw Huo Cheng's ugly face, so he pointed to his head and said, "This kid is very muddled. I heard there is a problem here."

    "Mental retarded?"

    "That's not true." Jiang Jingwei explained: "I heard that his father was a psychoanalyst. He used him for mental experiments since he was a child. Later, he was reported and imprisoned for the crime of abuse."

    Huo Cheng heard this statement, but it was fresh: "This guy looks quite normal."

    "Normal ass." Jiang Jingwei also became excited when he said that he was excited: "I saw with my own eyes, he was burned with a cigarette butt, and he smelled burnt, and he seemed to be nothing. Change color, it's not human!"

    "It's tough."

    "No, it's like having a fight with rabies. He's a lunatic, and normal people have to avoid him."

    Huo Cheng was not very interested in this, and asked again, "How is your family background?"

    "After his father went in, he was adopted by relatives for a period of time, but then drove him away. He spent a few years in Twelfth Middle School. I heard that he was poor, had no father or mother, and no one cared. However, his IQ It's really high, he was recruited by our principal last year and gave him the highest amount of scholarship, which is tens of thousands a year, and he was the first in the province by his college entrance examination."

    "Provincial champion?" Huo Cheng sneered: "Just him, a gangster from Twelfth Middle School?"

    "Brother Cheng, don't you believe it, do you know how many points he dropped for the second place this time?" Jiang Jingwei made a gesture: "Fifty points."

    You know, in the top ten of the grade of Yuxi Middle School, every one of them has a hardcore score, and five or six points can open up a good ranking.

    As for Qiu Li, he dropped 50 points from the second place. At this level...it's no wonder that the principal did not hesitate to spend tens of thousands of scholarships to poach him.

    If he can really get a score that is unmatched by others in the college entrance examination, and win the provincial champion, this will be enough for many years when the school recruits students.

    Huo Cheng looked at Qiu Li, and his eyes gradually became gloomy.

    Jiang Yu actually found a guy who lived on a scholarship. Is she looking for some emotional resonance?

    Huo Cheng was full of images of Qiu Li tying Jiang Yu's shoelaces just now. He was very irritable all night. The show passed by in a hurry. .

    Tao Anxin danced a very youthful jazz dance, which was full of energy, and suddenly pushed the atmosphere of the venue to a climax.

    Although she danced this dance last year and the year before, she danced very well and added a lot of new moves, which aroused bursts of applause.

    This dance expresses the theme of invincible youth and sunshine. The school leaders in the front row also nodded and whispered to the company's executives to promote Tao Anxin.

    Halfway through the dance, Tao Anxin's movements were frozen, the irritable electronic music stopped abruptly, and a low-pitched cello sounded.

    Everything around him dimmed, and Jiang Yu was about to take the stage.

    After more than ten seconds of music, the girl slowly walked out from the side.

    A beam of pure white chasing light hit her.

    She was wearing wide wide-leg trousers and a simple white t-shirt. She was soaked with water all over her body, and the makeup on her face was drenched.

    She was alone, trembling, pitifully standing on the stage, water dripping from her hair.

    The students looked at each other, wondering what was going on.

    How... is she like a chicken in soup? Is it a stage effect?

    This is too cruel, you must know that the outdoor temperature is close to below zero.

    Tao Anxin looked at Jiang Yu in surprise, not understanding why she was so embarrassed, it wasn't something that was discussed before.

    She eagerly gave Jiang Yu a wink, and told her to step off the stage if she was not ready, so as not to delay her performance.

    However, Jiang Yu didn't move. Her teeth chattered and she shivered, her eyes fixed on the girls in the front row headed by He Zilu.

    The girls, chewing gum, looked at her contemptuously and triumphantly at the prank.

    In her final moments on stage, the girls dragged her to the storage room, poured a full bucket of water on her, and scratched the delicate makeup on her face.

    Jiang Yu didn't have time to change her clothes and touch up her makeup. If she didn't show up at this time, she would miss this stage and the chance to win the grand prize.

    For someone like her, there is not always an opportunity waiting for her, every opportunity should be seized firmly.

    But...whose fault is this!

    Taking pictures, pulling her hair, slapping her face... The images of being bullied in the past reappeared in Jiang Yu's mind. She gritted her teeth, and her eyes were full of shame.

    shame?

    Should the shameful person be her?

    At this moment, is it her who is being questioned and scrutinized by everyone?

    Tao Anxin was completely in a hurry, for fear that Jiang Yu would ruin her stage, she kept giving her a lip-synching gesture and telling her to leave the stage quickly, it would be too embarrassing to stand here.

    Jiang Yu bit her lower lip, her pale hands clenched into fists

    The music was still continuing, Jiang Yu suddenly stepped on the melody, took a step, and began to dance.

    It was not the dance that was designed before, along with the deep whimper of the cello, Jiang Yu began to use exaggerated limbs and superb movements to interpret the painful experience of her past——

    Low self-esteem, introverted, and reticent to talk. Every class has such students. They are regarded as outliers and are not welcome by nature.

    Their schoolbags were thrown on the ground, their stationery was taken away, and there was always a malicious mocking behind them...

    Jiang Yu's expressive dance and her angry eyes infected everyone in the scene, and they could understand the emotions expressed in her dance...

    Even though she didn't like to talk in the past, at this moment, she used her body language to let everyone hear the suppressed, silent cry in her heart.

    Why is it that evil people can always laugh so loudly, and why is the only one who has to whimper under the quilt every night is her.

    So what did she do wrong to suffer all this!

    At this moment, her drenched and embarrassed look, her makeup that has been completely drained, and her dancing are like a perfect interpretation of a well-designed campus bullying theme.

    At the end of the music, everyone stood up, applauded warmly, and the applause continued for a long time, for her perfect interpretation, for her amazing dance...

    Compared with her dance with strong visual and emotional shock, Tao Anxin's youth-themed dance just now appears to be a lot weaker and stand out.

    Also, it seems very ironic.

    The so-called sunshine, so-called youth, so-called inspirational...

    However, behind this seemingly peaceful, in the shadows they can't see or don't want to see, there are so many students who are bullied, hurt and bullied.

    They hid in the corner and shivered, crying till dawn, crying for the quilt, but they dared not tell anyone because they knew it was useless.

    Everyone thought that Jiang Yu's style tonight was deliberate, in order to achieve the most shocking stage effect.

    They all stood up and applauded her heartily.

    Lively applause, endless.

    However, in the last row of the auditorium, Qiu Li stood in the shadows, his hands clenched into fists.

    He bit his fist, and a trapped beast in his body was about to break free from the cage and raged out.

    He knew that this was not the dance that Jiang Yu originally prepared, nor was Jiang Yu's appearance at the beginning.

    She had put on pretty makeup for herself: peach blossom blush, long curly eyelashes, a white and natural foundation, and highlights on the bridge of her nose...

    She is as beautiful as a doll, as if living in a fairy tale world.

    The spent lipstick on the corner of her mouth was still painted by Qiu Li herself.

    And now, he looked at the drenched girl on the stage, at the embarrassing makeup she had spent...

    He could feel the humiliation and anger of being hurt for no reason.

    The back of his clenched fist was bitten with blood, and he didn't even notice it.

    Because of the pain, was about to suffocate.

    Just as Jiang Yu trotted out of the stage, the tears she had held back for a long time were about to burst out, Qiu Li had come to the backstage and pulled her into his arms.

    He hugged her tightly, as if to embed her in his body.

    "Don't cry, I'll follow you..."
