Wei Qinghuan looked at her in surprise, waiting for her to finish speaking, just as staff members came to urge them to prepare.
Rushing to the backstage, everyone was busy changing costumes. Lin Xiaoman had an extra person helping her, which made things faster. While waiting for the team to go out, she took out a spray from her bag.
“Use this when it becomes unbearable.”
It was something Ji Zhixian had given her that day.
A pain-relief spray that could temporarily relieve pain, but because the perception of pain was less obvious, it might cause more serious consequences.
Lin Xiaoman stared at the pain-relief spray for a long time, somewhat hesitant.
“How are you?” Wei Qinghuan’s voice suddenly came from behind.
Lin Xiaoman put the spray back in her bag and turned around.
Before the dance even began, she could already imagine how stunning Wei Qinghuan would look while dancing. In that instant, she decided to endure the pain and go on stage. This was to honor everyone’s unremitting efforts over the past few days.
“I’m ready,” she said firmly.
When Lin Xiaoman and the others took the stage, the entire venue fell silent. The lights dimmed, and red lights slowly brightened. As the music started, a woman in a flowing red dress standing in the center of the stage began to move. Everyone’s gaze was captivated by her – her glance, her gentle smile, and her gracefully swaying waist made hearts flutter.
Immediately after, an ethereal female voice rang out, and four spotlights suddenly lit up. Five women in identical costumes began to dance with flowing sleeves, as if a gentle breeze could blow them away, floating like immortals. A high-pitched female voice joined in, the music becoming lighter. They changed dance poses, moving elegantly, sometimes raising their wrists, sometimes lowering their eyes, their expressions full of charm. Then various instruments played together, the rhythm becoming faster. With gentle harmonies, the central dancer continuously spun, while the others around her waved their long sleeves, moving like dragons and phoenixes, seemingly transporting the audience to the prosperous Tang Dynasty.
As the music gradually stopped and the stage “immortals” gracefully departed, the entire audience remained silent. Even Xu Wei, who had come to mock them, was stunned.
She never expected that simplifying the five-person dance and focusing attention on the central performer would actually work.
