Officer Zhang stood at the door for quite a while, silently observing the four people inside the dance studio.
Not until the girl had finished dancing and Qiuzi clapped did her gaze seem to inadvertently sweep over in their direction and then she showed surprise.
"Zhang?" Xu Shuo called out.
Read first at m-v le-mpyr
After he called out to her, the other three also unanimously looked over, and Teacher Changying frowned slightly.
Seeing this, Officer Zhang also pushed open the door and walked in, apologizing with a smile, "Sorry, did I disturb you? I just wanted to come and see Qiuzi."
Today, she wasn't wearing her police uniform, her presence was quite gentle, making her appear to be just a capable older sister.
Hearing this, Xu Shuo didn't expose her identity and turned to Changying to say, "Teacher, this is a sister I knew previously. She probably came to find me about something..."
Changying's face was expressionless, her critical gaze sized up the uninvited guest from head to toe before she bluntly and coldly said, "Now is practice time. Any matters can wait until the break."
Xu Shuo lowered his head with a look of grievance and muttered an "Oh."
At this, Officer Zhang waved her hand and stood at the entrance of the break room, saying, "Then I'll just watch from here, okay?"
Teacher Changying didn't reply, but she didn't object either, not even sparing Zhang another glance, just maintaining the image of a stern and inflexible teacher.
After each of the three had showcased their dance, they began their usual action practice.
Teacher Changying was not only stern in appearance but also strict in teaching. Apart from Xuena, whose foot injury made it difficult for her to maintain some movements for long, Qiuzi and Lanruo needed to repeat actions dozens of times.
Officer Zhang initially leaned against the door of the break room watching them, but as waiting got boring, she retreated into the break room and sat on the bench playing with her phone.
Suddenly, her gaze fixed on the phone.
Picking up on something, Officer Zhang instinctively looked up to the scene in the dance studio, where the girls were spinning around.
To an outsider like her, it seemed like just an ordinary spinning movement, but in reality, the Whip Turning was extremely difficult to perform continuously for a couple of dozen rounds.
However, the action made the girls' flailing figures, the sweat splaying in the air, and their slightly hastened breaths all full of expressive power.
Lanruo's dance moves were sharp and bold, her white dress also giving her a reckless and fervent quality, as if she were a real Black Swan enticing the prince.
She curved her lips into a smile, "Teacher, I will definitely become the lead!"
Gazing into those eerie eyes, Changying collected herself and retracted her gaze, nodding in approval without saying anything more. She gestured for the girl to go and rest.
...
"What's wrong, did she scold you?"
No sooner had Xu Shuo entered the rest room than Officer Zhang's voice followed.
She gave the inquisitive-looking female officer a resentful glance, "The teacher thinks I didn't perform well because you were here and told me not to bring any more odd people around."
Officer Zhang: "..."
What was so odd about her, she was a police officer after all, wasn't she?
As Xu Shuo began to take down her bun, she asked, "Zhang, did you come here to see me for something?"
Officer Zhang glanced at two other girls who were approaching and said, "Nothing much, I just wanted to get to know you better after our encounter yesterday. I'll treat you to lunch."
If not for the fact that this police officer was a woman and Qiuzi was as well, Xu Shuo might have thought this person was trying to hit on her.
Of course, if the other person was cross-dressing, that would be a different story.
Thinking mischievously, Xu Shuo took out her usual clothes from the cabinet.
Then, just before entering the washroom, she suddenly turned and smiled radiantly at Officer Zhang, "Sure, then wait for me, Zhang~"
...
Even though the girl was very pretty, with a round face that still evoked a feeling of childlike cuteness, the smile on her pale, somewhat morbid face didn't seem bright at all.
It was even inexplicably creepy.
But Officer Zhang was inexplicably dazzled by it.
When she smiled, she indeed was very attractive.
Just like when she was dancing earlier, even though Officer Zhang could only see vague silhouettes, it exuded a kind of devilish temptation, one that could stir the desires within a person's heart.
