Chapter 56: Talent Show
TL: Etude
After a perfect weekend, the military training at Lin Uy tihe m routine included running ten ps around the field, followed by standing at attention and marg, and theing a series of bat moves. This left the freshmen exhausted, barely able to stand or sit properly.
Jiang Qin removed his hat, revealing a sweaty forehead, aed his hands on his bent knees.
At that moment, a slender hand reached out from behind him, a half bottle of Wahaha mineral water.
“Jiang Qin, want some water?”
Song Qingqing, sitting on the right rear side of the formation, leaned slightly forward, blinking her eyeliner-atuated eyes at him.
“Never mind, Qingqing, you’ve already drunk from that one. Drink mine instead; it’s unopened.”
Jiang Tian handed over a bottle of Wahaha, her face slightly flushed.
Jiang Qin, having fotten his water, gratefully accepted Jiang Tian’s and took a few sips. “Thanks, I’ll pay you baorrow.”
“o repay for a bottle of water.”
Jiang Tian’s lips curled into a smile, while Song Qingqing’s eyes held a hint of rese.
But she quickly soled herself.
Don’t be angry, he has a Bentley, he has a Bentley…
This se left Zhou Chao sitting behind Jiang Qihing with jealousy, his ice co losing its sweetness and turning into soulless sparkling water.
“I fot t water too,” Ren Ziqiang suddenly spoke.
Pan Xiu revealed her dimples, “Sce says you survive three days without water.”
“…”
After a while, the instructor, feeling enough training had been done, gathered the nearby four squads and asked if anyone wao showcase their talents.
Despite their bravado in the dorms, fag such a rge audience made the students shy. With over two hundred people, not a single voice spoke up.
The instructor then annouhat there were two hours left until the end of training. They could either watch talents for two hours or run for two hours.
This stirred the squads.
An hour of running was exhausting enough, let alowo. Talent show it was!
“Rep, instructor, Li dance ballet!”
“Rep, instructor, Du Jiahao squirt water out of his ’s so cool!”
“Rep, instructor, Jia Xiangru dahe peacock dance!”
“Rep, instructor, Yang Liu sing ‘Little Dimple’!”
“Hey, hey, hey, Liu Jinghao also sing ‘Little Dimple,’ they could do a duet!”
Betrayed by their friends, some students relutly performed, preferring it to running for two hours.
The young geion indeed had talent, especially the er-squirter, although it was a bit disgusting.
But such a talent dispy meant giving up any hope of finding a partner in college. No girl would fancy a boy who squirted water from his nostrils, unless she was a bit peculiar.
The duet of ‘Little Dimple’ was a hit. The pair sang while exging gnces, igniting the youthful atmosphere and elevating the mood.
Li ’s ballet was also impressive, especially her figure, gracefully spinning and leaping, almost magical.
“Damn, it’s a good thing Old Cao didn’t e to see our training today,” Ren Ziqiang muttered to himself.
Zhou Chao turned around, “What do you mean?”
“He’s not quite over it. He’d be in agony watg this!”
Zhou Chao realized, “Ren, yood at putting yourself in others’ shoes.”
After a while, Song Qingqing couldn’t resist volunteering. She performed Jolin Tsai’s “Dang Diva,” singing and dang, drawing howls from the male students.
Hearing the cheers, Song Qingqing couldn’t help feeling proud. Her gaze naturally drifted towards her squad, only to find everyog her, except Jiang Qin, who kept his head down. This dimmed her spirits.
What does this man like?
“Jiang Qin, did I not dance well?” Song Qingqiuro the formation, her voice tinged with a hint of mencholy.
“Huh? Yeah, you danced great, jumping high and far.”
“?”
Jiang Tian, who had been listening ily, couldn’t help but ugh.
Song Qingqi a bit embarrassed, but couldn’t muster ament.
If it were a boy from an ordinary family, she’d think he was faking, but Jiang Qin was different. Being a rich sed geion, his aloofness seemed more justified.
But Jiang Qin’s distra wasn’t disi; he had received a message from Pang Hai about the advertisement fan design, needing to coordih Shengshi Advertising. With the limited capabilities of 2008 cell phones, he couldn’t see the design or firm its appropriateness.
How long would this talent show go on?
Maybe it was time for a tactical retreat to the restroom.
Just as Jiang Qin was about to raise his hand, he realized everyone around was ting for the instructor to perform. Caught up ihusiasm, the instructor took off his shirt, revealing a muscur, bronzed body, and demonstrated a set of capture teiques.
The dispy owerful and anding, earning appuse and cheers from the udents.
After the instructor finished, he wiped his sweat with his shirt and turned his attention back to the formation. His eyes lit up, and he poi Jiang Qin.
“Alright, the male student who raised his hand, e on up.”
“?????”
Jiang Qin looked around and realized he was the only oh his hand raised, with all eyes from the four squads on him.
Even Song Qingqing and Jiang Tian had a look of curious anticipation, while Feng Nanshu from the neighb squad stood up, gazing at him with lively eyes.
But he only wao use the restroom…
As for talent…
What even is talent?
But now, it was too te to escape. Admitting to the instructor he needed a restroom break would be too embarrassing.
Jiang Qin put on his hat and calmly walked up to the instructor.
“What’s your name?”
“Jiang Qin.”
“What talent will you showcase?”
“Rep, instructor, I do an imitation show.”
“Imitate what?”
“You, instructor.”
The formatioed in surprise.
The instructor’s performance had been impressive, not something a non-professional could easily emute. Could this guy really imitate him? It seemed unbelievable.
But the instructor, intrigued by the prospect of such talent at Lin Uy, stepped aside, giving Jiang Qiage.
“Now, I am the instructor. Remember to imagine me as him while watg. It’s an important dition, uood?”
The freshmen, unsure of his pn, nodded.
Jiang Qin, hands behind his back, walked in front of the four squads. “All troops, on my and, disperse!”
“?????”
The squads were momentarily fused, then, seizing the moment, everyone sprang up and rushed out, filling the field with deafening cheers.
Even the instructor was stunned, rushing to stop them, but with over two huudents, it was impossible to trol. The udents swiftly vacated the field, leaving the other squads bewildered.
Only Feng Nanshu remained, still expeg to watch Jiang Qin’s performance, only to be whisked away by him, leaving the field in the blink of an eye.
