Love You for the Rest of My Life

Chapter 1204: Is Jin Palace’s Girlfriend That Impressive?

Di Jinxuan was a bit dazed and did not react for a moment.

After she snapped back to reality, she was engulfed in embarrassment. Not only was she singled out and criticized in front of everyone, but her qualification was also revoked, and a reserve team member was asked to replace her.

Di Jinxuan didn’t speak.

Instead, it was Qin Yun who stood up and said, "Teacher, this doesn’t seem fair."

"Not fair?" Teacher Hong raised an eyebrow and huffed, "Then tell me what’s unfair about it."

"Xuanxuan just felt a bit dizzy just now, she’ll be fine after a bit of rest; there’s no need to revoke her qualification," Qin Yun said discontentedly.

"If she’s not feeling well, isn’t it normal for the reserve team member to step in? Are you suggesting she should perform sick? If something unexpected happens on stage and she messes up, what then? What’s the point of having reserve team members if not to prevent these kinds of eventualities?"

As Teacher Hong spoke, he looked towards Di Jinxuan, "If you’re really not feeling well, then you shouldn’t dance. Do you think I’m right?"

Di Jinxuan was at a loss for how to answer; she had indeed told a small lie and had now painted herself into a corner. She certainly couldn’t admit to lying right now.

She didn’t actually care much about the dance competition, whether she danced or not.

However, having prepared for so long, and being the lead dancer, this sudden turn of events naturally left her feeling rather upset.

After thinking it over, Di Jinxuan answered, "Teacher Hong, I’m not feeling that bad, I can still go on."

"You can go on?" Teacher Hong looked at Di Jinxuan displeased, "The competition is the focus of everyone’s attention, audiences worldwide are watching. If you have an incident, it’s the whole school that suffers."

"..."

"Teacher, you’re being a bit too harsh," Wang Xiaomei also stepped forward to defend Di Jinxuan, "Xuanxuan said she can go on, it’s not a serious illness. Plus, Xuanxuan is Jin Palace’s girlfriend, what do you mean by targeting her like this?"

Enthusiastic Wang Xiaomei was eager to stand up for Di Jinxuan; she blurted out these words in her haste, and it was too late for Di Jinxuan to stop her.

Faced with even more stares, Di Jinxuan felt extremely uncomfortable.

Before she could even speak, she heard Teacher Hong say coldly, "Does being Jin Palace’s girlfriend make her so great? Jin Palace is the Dance King; is she the Dance King? Besides, Jin Palace has been out of dance for ten years. Whether he can still dance or not is questionable. Maybe he stopped dancing because he’s lost his talent."

Hearing Teacher Hong’s words, Di Jinxuan sharply looked up at him, feeling a sudden surge of aversion in her heart.

"He hasn’t lost the ability to dance, nor has he run out of talent. He stopped dancing for personal reasons. If you don’t know the facts, don’t make wild guesses. You’re showing extreme disrespect to Jin Palace," blurted out Di Jinxuan, countering Teacher Hong without thinking.

But Teacher Hong was unimpressed and even arrogantly said, "A dancer who’s been inactive for ten years doesn’t deserve to be called a dancer. If one truly loves dance, no matter what personal reasons there might be, one should persevere."

Teacher Hong’s words seemed to make some sense, and for a moment Di Jinxuan fell silent.

Qin Yun, Wang Xiaomei, and Zhou Yihan couldn’t stand it anymore and immediately spoke out in defense, "Teacher, how can you speak of Jin Palace like that?"

Suddenly, many others also started to clamor, "Yeah, how can you say such things about someone based on your own assumptions?"

Nangong Jin held a revered status in these students’ hearts; to be honest, he was like a god among them, an aspiration for all dancers.
