Chapter 36 Contrast
Chapter 36 Contrast
When asked, Zhu Ying was taken aback. Actually, her original idea was similar to Xue Nuo's: to say that she had no talents she was not good at, and then perform something that she was actually quite good at.
Knowing that the person she likes is watching the live stream right now, she has absolutely no desire to create any so-called "show effect."
She wanted to show that person her charm, so she ultimately chose to dance. "Korean dance is a style of dance that I only recently learned, and it's not something I'm good at."
"Then I'll perform a K-pop dance."
Having witnessed Shu Hua's confrontation with Xue Nuo, Zhu Ying didn't give Shu Hua a chance to retaliate.
She immediately stood up and looked for music, clearly indicating that she was going to perform this and wouldn't accept any changes.
Tao Tao was also afraid of what she was being told to do. She was quite pleased with Zhu Ying's strong opinions and didn't offer any.
As for Shu Hua, the only one who might object, she was eager to end this PK as soon as possible so she could go and watch the drama unfold.
They didn't care at all what Zhu Ying performed, as long as she didn't say anything to belittle her.
She still remarked, "No wonder she's a dance streamer; she has high standards for her dancing."
This is even broken down into different dance styles. She can be happy for half a day just by being able to complete a whole dance.
Afraid of being interrupted, Zhu Ying quickly opened a K-pop dance song she had recently watched.
I didn't even look closely at which song it was, but when I clicked on it, it turned out to be a slightly sexy one.
This was originally intended to be a performance she planned to put on later when she wanted to show some contrasting aspects of herself; she's been watching it recently.
Now, perhaps it's also suitable.
If it's not suitable, she can use the excuse of punishment and deliberately choose a dance that is different from her usual somewhat aloof style.
If it's suitable, that would be even better.
Maybe that person will see a different side of themselves and become interested in them.
Zhu Ying took off her Hanfu, revealing a tight-fitting short-sleeved shirt underneath and denim shorts on her lower body.
Surprisingly, this outfit matches the style of the song.
Zhu Ying set the music to a few seconds before the part she was going to dance, and her standing posture inexplicably carried a sense of desperate gamble.
She took a deep breath, and her body reacted the instant the first drumbeat struck.
It was no longer the graceful and flowing classical dance of everyday life, but rather a burst of power that was somewhat raw yet exceptionally precise.
In the first few turns, she seemed to be getting used to the completely different rhythm, her movements were slightly tense, and she was cautiously probing.
As the rhythm progressed, a certain sense of rhythm deep within her body, long suppressed by her aloof persona, seemed to be completely awakened.
With a swift flick of his head, a few strands of sweaty hair clung to his slightly flushed cheeks, but his eyes shone with an astonishing brightness.
With a strong beat, she suddenly twisted her hips and thrust her shoulders forward, instantly amplifying the range of motion and exuding power.
The taut waist displayed an amazing combination of explosive power and flexibility as it twisted, each wave flowing smoothly from the shoulder blades to the fingertips, full of tension.
Her tight-fitting top rode up slightly as she lifted her leg high and turned to the side, revealing a glimpse of her firm, fair waistline, which shimmered under the lights.
She danced with increasing enthusiasm, completely immersed in this unexpected sense of connection.
After a powerful squat, he rises up, his body unfolding, his arms outstretched like wings, and his neck forming a beautiful curve.
When the music reached a small climax with dense drumbeats, she quickly changed her steps.
Her rapid breathing caused her chest to rise and fall, her face flushed from exercise, but her eyes held an almost wild focus.
With a crisp, precise pose, she slightly bent one knee, one hand on her knee, and the other raised to point at the camera.
With her chin slightly raised and sweat sliding down her jawline, she exuded an aura of strength and sexiness that was completely different from her usual ethereal and classical image.
Zhu Ying's Korean dance performance froze on the last drumbeat. She was panting heavily, her cheeks flushed, and her sweaty hair clung to her forehead, but a hint of smugness curled at the corner of her mouth.
Holy crap... this is pretty impressive!
[Unexpectedly suitable???]
[Sister Bamboo Shadow is killing me! That waist! Those legs! That power! This classical dance master is crushing K-pop!]
[A cool, aloof goddess suddenly transforms into a hot bombshell? This contrast is incredible!]
【This is because she's not good at it? I can't believe her!】
[Here we go again? Saying they're not good at it, they're actually just showing off!!! But, well done, hehehe!]
Shu Hua, who was originally in a hurry to "leave work," was watching very attentively; she really has some talent.
This was probably the effect Xue Nuo wanted, but unfortunately she sang with a split.
However, her initial awkwardness did show that this dance style was indeed not something Zhu Ying was good at.
So why would a dance streamer with such solid skills cause trouble?
If you dance well, you'll eventually get fans.
Shu Hua didn't understand; she just wanted to get off work.
Although she was amazed, it didn't stop Shu Hua from quickly ending the competition and going to watch the drama unfold.
So much time has passed that she can't even remember what kind of melon she wanted to eat anymore.
Yeah, my memory is really not that good.
Shu Hua clapped her hands. "Wow, as expected of a dance streamer, you danced so well! I can't even tell if it's a punishment or a reward."
So, everyone's punishment is over, shall I hang up now?
Seeing that Shu Hua seemed to be in a hurry to leave, the others didn't want to keep her any longer, since they weren't that close to her.
Shu Hua has a really sharp tongue.
"Well then, bye-bye~" Shu Hua hung up the call as soon as she finished speaking.
The competition is finally over, and Shu Hua let out a long sigh.
"I'll never hit six people again. It takes forever to get a punishment." Shu Hua sighed. "Alright, shall we continue watching the drama?"
I actually... kind of forgot what kind of gossip I wanted to hear, but I do remember this.
So, my wonderful fans, you must have already figured out the truth, right?
I believe in you guys!
Shu Hua thus placed her fans on a pedestal, their big eyes fixed intently on the comment section.
[Every time Huazai asks us for a favor, he uses the same old lines. Can't he at least update his vocabulary? (lights a cigarette)]
We always seem to fall for it!
【It's all because you spoiled them!】
[I was wondering why the streamer was in such a hurry to start the PK; turns out he just wanted to watch the drama unfold!]
[So, those with the ability have figured it out? At least the artist praised the child, even if it wasn't heartfelt.]
Although I haven't figured it out yet, I have a clue...
Shu Hua looked for a long time and found that all she saw were people criticizing her; she didn't see any useful information at all. She was just about to encourage her fans to use their brains a little more.
Then I saw a useful message: "What clue?"
[Zhu Ying switched to her alternate account and went to Tao Tao's live stream.]
Holy crap!
This melon suddenly smells delicious again.
【Wait, how did you guys find out people's alternate accounts? Am I the only one who doesn't know this skill? (bites handkerchief)】
[Is anyone going to do something about the streamer? It seems she's switched to an alternate account to gossip.]
[Will this be the key to catching Huazai's alternate account?]
[Oh wow, you've spotted Watson in the blind spot!]
Shu Hua had just entered Tao Tao's live stream with her alternate account when she saw the comments section ready to expose her secret identity.
She was quite proud of this, saying, "It's no use even if you dig it out. It's just a small, anonymous account that I used to browse gossip in my live stream."
There's nothing there~
[Damn it, she got me!]
[Damn it, she caught me off guard!]
[Damn, she's so cute!]
[Upstairs, your formation is messed up! You added an extra character, it's not neat anymore!]
But she's really cute!
"Well...that's true!"
You guys betrayed us way too quickly.
[Grape Boba Ice Livestream]
Because Shu Hua hung up quickly, the remaining people stopped chatting and also quickly ended the call.
Tao Ziming was still marveling at the punishment Zhuying had just given her, "I never imagined that Sister Zhuying, who looks so aloof, would actually be so suited to this kind of dance?"
To be fair, that dance was really good.
[Sister Ying's dance moves are as smooth as Dove chocolate! I suggest she debut as an idol instead of being a classical dance streamer! (doge)]
【What kind of little angel is Tao Tao? When Zhu Ying was competing earlier, she was sarcastic, saying you relied on your looks and had no talent. And here you are, praising her dance! I'm impressed by your character. I suggest you give her an 'Annual Award for Repaying Evil with Kindness'!】
Tao Tao is so generous!
[Neighbor Xuenuo should learn from this; stop with your frivolous talk all the time (disdain)]
[Qingying Jiujiu: Does the host really think Zhuying dances Korean dance well? I think it's just average, not as good as her classical dance] Floating screen.
Suddenly a floating screen appeared, and Tao Tao read it aloud without thinking, instinctively expressing her opinion:
"I really think it's amazing; I certainly couldn't do something like that."
I haven't seen Sister Zhuying's classical dance before. I'll check it out when I have time; it's even more amazing than this dance.
[Qingying Jiujiu: She majored in classical dance, a hundred times better than this K-pop dance. The streamer should really check her out.] (Floating screen)
Tao Zhimu nodded obediently, "Okay, okay, I'll go and appreciate it when I have time."
If you're curious and interested, you can check it out.
No wonder Sister Zhuying said I wasn't good enough. Compared to Sister Zhuying, I do seem to be quite a bit behind.
That dance I just saw was already incredibly impressive, but her classical dance is a hundred times better—it's simply unbelievable!
[Tao Tao, don't be modest! So what if you can't dance K-pop? Your voice is good enough!]
[Waaaaah, Tao Tao is such an angel! You're praising her so sincerely, even directing traffic to her! I'm so upset!]
【Tao Tao, don't listen to those things! Your singing is enough for me to forgive the whole world, that's more than enough. We have to give others a chance to live!】
[Smooth as silk! I'm talking about Tao Tao's mindset! Smoother than Dove chocolate! Sister Zhuying's dancing is smooth as silk, but Tao Tao's personality is even smoother!]
Wait a minute! Who is this "Qingying Qiuqiu"? Coming in with "100 times stronger" right off the bat, is she showing off to Sister Zhuying? Could it be that Sister Zhuying herself created a new account to "personally drive traffic"? (doge)
[Upstairs +1! This ID looks a bit like Zhuying's main account, both green and shadowy.]
Tao Zimo waved her hand repeatedly as she looked at the comments praising her for being magnanimous and repaying evil with kindness.
"No, no, actually I was a little angry and sad when I was told that."
However, we should also stick to the facts. Sister Zhuying is indeed an amazing dancer, which is why I made that comment.
Okay, let's not talk about her anymore. I'll sing you a song.
Hey Passerby, Starry Sea, Black Cutter, do you guys have any songs you'd like to request?
[Black Cleaver Fragments: Let's sing "The Joker."]
【What?! What did I just see? Black Cutter was the first to request a song! Didn't he always wait for the other two guys to request theirs before speaking up?】
Something's wrong, something's very wrong!
[During the PK battle just now, Black Cleaver hadn't said a word, and I thought he had left. I didn't expect him to still be here, and he even requested a song right away. It was obvious that something was wrong on his face.]
So, what does Black Cutter mean by this?
[Who is this song title referring to as the clown?]
[This is really unsettling to think about. This song isn't Tao Tao's usual style, so Black Cutter must be talking about something.]
Who is it?! Who is this clown?! We're all eager to hear the juicy gossip!
[Based on proximity, the account that recently showed abnormal activity was that Qingying something-or-other account.]
So, is Black Cleaver saying that Bamboo Shadow is a clown?
[Qingying Qiujiu just praised Zhuying's classical dance in a floating message, and Heiqie Ge immediately requested the Clown Song—Is Zhuying the Clown Confirmed?]
Holy crap, the gossip that's been bothering me all night is finally coming to an end?!
Is the reason Bamboo Shadow is targeting Taobao because of Black Cutter Bro?
[But why? I already searched the Bamboo Shadow rankings before, and Black Cutter Bro wasn't on them!]
[Exactly! Before watching Tao Tao, Black Cleaver was always browsing the gaming section. I saw him a lot in the gaming section.]
[Xinghai: Take care of your own affairs and don't cause trouble for the streamer!]
[This...is a tacit admission, right? That bamboo shadow came because of Black Cutter.]
Uh... this drama is giving me a bit of a headache. Are they starting to fight over who's the boss now, people who have absolutely nothing to do with each other?
[+1, this whole thing is so illogical, I'm not enjoying it at all.]
[Unable to enjoy the thrill of deduction and gossip, only the streamer's singing can console me.]
[Black Cleaver Shards: @Starsea, I'm totally confused too, okay? You don't need to lecture me, the streamer can handle this! He's not a child.]
Although Black Cleaver Shard felt that he was indeed the one who caused the trouble for the streamer, he was already dealing with it.
However, being lectured still annoyed him.
We're all the older brothers, so who's more noble than whom?
He didn't believe that Xinghai was innocent; who knew if the female streamer he had tipped would come looking for him one day.
Isn't this normal in the live streaming industry?
The streamer isn't a child anymore; getting a few words of criticism isn't a big deal.
If you want to become a live streamer, there will be many more opportunities like this in the future.
He always felt that Lu Guo and Xing Hai were protecting the anchor too much. If it weren't for the fact that the anchor sang really well, he really wouldn't want to stay.
I spent money, and I still got lectured.
Seeing that the two older brothers were about to start arguing again, Tao Zhiming quickly turned on the backing track, "Okay, next up is 'The Clown' that Black Cutter requested."
When Tao Zhiming read out the song title, her voice unconsciously became a little softer. Influenced by the comments section, she could no longer look at the song title directly.
It felt like they were really calling Sister Zhuying a clown, which was quite impolite.
