Me and My Two Bosses' Systems

Chapter 239 The 239th Day of Wanting to Be a Lazy Person

After Li Xingyu finished explaining, she received nine beautiful pink apples.

"No, what's wrong with you guys?" Li Xingyu looked at the nine people in front of her, whose faces, ears, and even necks were faintly pink, with a blank expression.

"Ahem, Little Feather, although we've been somewhat prepared, isn't this dance a bit too intimate?" Xinghe controlled her emotions and thoughts, coughing lightly with an innocent and pure expression.

As for what he was thinking?

That's something only he himself knows.

Who says blushing is always because of shyness?

However, Xinghe's reasoning was impeccable.

"Is it alright? Just a little support for your back. How about we switch?" Li Xingyu looked at the two dancing figures on the personal computer screen, whose genders she had labeled, and her tone was somewhat hesitant.

Anyway, Li Xingyu can dance both the male and female steps, so there's no harm in switching.

Furthermore, it seems that the gender aspect in StarCraft is indeed reversed, right?

Li Xingyu, who didn't know much about biology, was filled with uncertainty.

"Uh... is that possible?" Cain and Xinghe exchanged glances, also somewhat hesitant.

"Let's go to the dance studio and try it out now, this way please." Li Xingyu casually sent the video to the group chat, stood up, and playfully gestured for Xinghe and the others to join her.

Xinghe and the others have gotten used to Li Xingyu's occasional pranks, and they just smiled helplessly as they stood up and followed behind her.

The dance studio in Li Xingyu's room has excellent natural light and is about 70 square meters in size. It is divided into a practice area and a dressing room, which includes a changing room and a restroom.

"Alright, you guys observe first. I'll dance the male and female steps separately. Tian Shu, can you record a video for me?" Li Xingyu led everyone to her dance studio, stopped in front of the mirrors covering the entire wall, and turned to ask Tian Shu behind her.

"Of course, little star, it's my honor." Tian Shu replied quickly, and the speed at which he summoned the levitation ball was also very fast.

"Thank you for your trouble, Tian Shu." Li Xingyu nodded, then found a suitable instrumental piece in his personal computer and clicked play.

The gentle and soothing music flowed quietly in the dance studio, both relaxing and melodious while maintaining a sense of rhythm.

With the piano, violin, and cello as the main instruments, this piece is very suitable for waltzes in terms of both tone and timbre.

"I'll start with the female steps now. The male steps will be on the next song." Li Xingyu turned to Xinghe and the others and reminded them. Then, lifting her non-existent skirt, she pretended that someone was inviting her to dance and gave a slight curtsy.

Waltz is more suitable for wearing a European-style dress with a large skirt, but Li Xingyu is a bit lazy and doesn't want to change, so she'll just make do with what she has for now.

Anyway, I've already explained some basic etiquette and characteristics of waltz to Xinghe and the others. Now, the more important thing is the dance steps and movements.

As for dance partners, well...

They haven't even finished their apprenticeship yet, let's wait and see.

Whether it's music, dance, or anything else, a serious experience always makes people unconsciously immerse themselves in it, subconsciously ignoring everything else around them.

As the music flowed, Li Xingyu's nimble and graceful figure and elegant and playful dance steps were presented in a gorgeous and fluid manner before Xinghe and the others.

Xinghe and the others were completely mesmerized, their eyes never leaving Li Xingyu for a moment.

If it weren't for filming commitments, Tian Shu would probably be one of those obsessed with dance and Li Xingyu.

Tian Shu knew why Li Xingyu asked him to film the video, so the camera always focused on Li Xingyu, accurately and clearly recording her dance moves and steps.

The dance is over.

Li Xingyu lifted the emperor's skirt again and bowed, then stood up and turned to look at the still-dazed crowd: "How was it?"

“It’s beautiful, elegant and gorgeous,” Cain murmured to Li Xingyu.

"Ahem, thank you for the compliment, Cain. Do you think this dance is difficult?" Upon hearing Cain's answer, Li Xingyu paused for a moment, then couldn't help but cough before asking the question again in detail.

"It doesn't look too complicated. So, is the next part for the boys?" This time, it was Elnis who answered Li Xingyu. He rested his chin on one hand, looking thoughtful, while his other hand slid in the air as if he were imitating something.

"Yes, this will also trouble Tian Shu." Li Xingyu gave Tian Shu a bright smile.

Smiling like a flower.

An idiom popped into Tian Shu's mind, and he nodded blankly as if he hadn't quite grasped it.

Not only Tian Shu, but everyone else who saw Li Xingyu's smile was also momentarily stunned.

"Let's begin." Li Xingyu faced Tian Shu again, making an elegant and gentlemanly starting gesture as if he were a boy inviting someone to dance.

As the roles change, Li Xingyu's temperament seems to change as well.

If Li Xingyu was a confident, noble, elegant, and reserved princess or young lady when she was dancing the female steps, then she is now a gentlemanly, polite, wealthy, and powerful prince or knight when she is dancing the male steps.

Although it was the same dance and the same music, Li Xingyu's male and female steps conveyed completely different feelings and momentum.

Xinghe and the others had almost never paid attention to dance before, and now, watching Li Xingyu's dance, they were all somewhat dazed.

Amazing.

Although they only had a vague understanding of this dance called waltz, Xinghe and the others unanimously admired Li Xingyu's performance.

The elegance, confidence, and strength displayed in this dance are qualities that Li Xingyu herself possesses, but they are not usually revealed; only a small part of them is being shown now.

Li Xingyu finished the last pose, put it away, and had a satisfied smile on her face.

My soul and body have adapted to more than two-thirds of the way, so it seems I can move around more in the future.

Besides the adaptation of his mind and body, Li Xingyu was also satisfied with his reaction ability and the training he had undergone in the previous period.

Otherwise, if she had been caught off guard by Qingyao's voice while she was dancing, she might have immediately stopped what she was doing and her face would have shown an expression unrelated to the dance.

After realizing that her soul and body had not fully adapted, Li Xingyu discussed with Qingyao and Hanqing that if there were significant changes in the adaptation, they would tell her directly.

This is not only Li Xingyu's concern and attention to this matter, but also a test of her, Qingyao, and Hanqing's training during this period.

The results look very good now.

"Little Feather, you're amazing! Can we learn two dance steps like you?" Yufina's almond-shaped eyes widened in surprise and delight, and her face showed eagerness to try.

“Sure, now please send the two videos to the group. You can practice the moves on your own first, and I will give you guidance from the side.” Li Xingyu sat cross-legged in front of the mirror, operating the personal terminal to play suitable music.

'Oh, it's so much more convenient to wear pants. I can sit however I want. Now I can also think about how to design the flow for tonight's live stream.' Li Xingyu watched Xinghe and the others practice their movements, and for a moment her mind wandered.

As it turns out, Li Xingyu's previous praise of Xinghe and his team for being not only intelligent but also well-coordinated was quite reasonable.

Although Xinghe and his team moved slowly and their movements weren't very smooth, apart from a few slightly off-target movements, there were no other problems.

This was the conclusion Li Xingyu reached after watching Xinghe and the others completely imitate the actions in the video.

After watching Xinghe and the others dance for the first time, Li Xingyu had a general understanding of their shortcomings, and the next step was to scrutinize them in detail.

"El, lower your hands a little here. You should also consider the height difference between you and your dance partner," Li Xingyu whispered to Elnis, who, despite her somewhat stiff movements, was already displaying her poise and presence.

When Li Xingyu was dancing just now, she didn't have a dance partner, so she couldn't quite get the hang of some of the partner moves. She also didn't have a dance partner in mind, so she just went with her gut feeling.

It's true that Xinghe and the others learn very quickly, but they are all imitating Li Xingyu's movements, so some parts still need to be adjusted slightly.

"Like this?" Upon hearing Li Xingyu's reminder, Elnis lowered his raised arm slightly and asked Li Xingyu with some uncertainty in his tone.

"Um... El, would you mind if I gave you some guidance on physical contact?" Li Xingyu asked hesitantly, tilting her head as she looked at the other person's posture, which had become lower but slightly off.

All the props needed for dance practice are put back in their original place after each use. Now the dance studio is incredibly clean and tidy, and you can't even find anything to use as a prop.

Moreover, Li Xingyu had a strange feeling that if she used other objects to contact Xinghe and the others, the consequences might not be what she wanted to see, so she gave up the idea of ​​taking things out of her storage space to use as teaching aids.

“…It’s alright, thank you for your trouble, Little Feather.” Elnis was a little slow to react, and after a moment of silence, he shook his head, his body stiffening as he held his raised hand.

“I’m sorry, but you can relax a little more.” Li Xingyu placed his hand on Elnis’s bare forearm and adjusted his posture.

Xinghe and the others stopped what they were doing when Li Xingyu got up and walked towards them. Now everyone's attention was on Li Xingyu and Elnis.

“Hmm…would El mind if I led you through the entire dance?” Li Xingyu suggested, noticing that Elnis’ movements were a bit off due to adjusting his posture.

A duet is a dance that can be performed by a partner, provided that the partner's skills have reached a certain level.

Actually, Li Xingyu had thought about this before, but decided to let Xinghe and the others try it out on their own first. It seems that they still need to be guided.

"Is it okay? Won't that be too much trouble for Little Feather?" Elnis could also realize that his movements were not quite accurate, but he had not expected this unexpected joy.

"Sure, it's not a problem."

Having someone guide you through the dance will provide a more accurate understanding and help with your practice.

"But you'll have to wait for me to change my clothes and shoes first. You can practice on your own first." Li Xingyu said it was okay, and explained why she was bringing the jumps along, before heading towards her changing room.

Li Xingyu is only a little over 1.5 meters tall, while Xinghe, Elnis, and Cain are all over 2 meters tall, so there's a bit of a mismatch.

After Li Xingyu entered her changing room, Xinghe and the others realized what was going on and each found a place to practice their moves.

I can't make any big mistakes when I dance with Little Feather/Little Star later, otherwise I'll be letting her down with her embarrassing praise.

Here, Li Xingyu glanced at the clothes in the changing room. Dance costumes and everyday clothes made up two-thirds of all the clothes, while the rest were some less everyday outfits.

For example, European-style evening gowns, combat uniforms, suits...

All of these were styles and sizes that Li Xingyu liked. Thinking of giving Xinghe and the others some time to practice, Li Xingyu slowly and deliberately chose clothes and shoes for herself.

Although Li Xingyu doesn't use the dressing room in the dance studio very often, it has everything she needs and is practically a small walk-in closet.

Since she was going to change anyway, Li Xingyu simply picked out a dress and shoes, and then planned to put her hair up in a simple updo.

"This feels a bit like Cinderella, doesn't it? I must say, it would be even more fitting if the hair were blonde."

"Any fairy tales here? I don't think I've ever paid attention to them. I might check them out this afternoon." Li Xingyu looked at herself in the mirror, wearing a blue tulle European-style dress, and commented to herself. Then the topic suddenly veered off course.

Although Li Xingyu is still young, she has already experienced wearing high heels, both physically and mentally, so she can still manage 15-centimeter high heels.

Previously, it was because art students had to perform on stage, wearing formal dresses and high heels;

This is because of the family's status in the interstellar world. Although they are still young, they have attended many grand banquets and have to dress up formally for some particularly important occasions, since they represent the family when they go out.

After checking that there was nothing wrong with her clothes, Li Xingyu changed into the silver gemstone-encrusted high heels that were placed next to her.

Looking at herself, who had suddenly grown taller, Li Xingyu looked down and checked the hem of her skirt.

Well, a small part of it still drags on the ground. Although it doesn't affect walking, Li Xingyu feels a little melancholy. When will she be able to grow a little taller?

After changing her clothes, Li Xingyu did not immediately push open the door and go out. Instead, she stayed in the changing room to get used to the feeling of wearing high heels.

If we wait a moment and someone accidentally falls, wouldn't that be embarrassing?

To avoid such a low-probability accident, Li Xingyu walked around the changing room twice in her high heels before deciding to push the door open and leave.
