Chapter 274: Soul Was Sucked Into It

Shen Xi looked at Su Yi in disgust and smirked coldly, “Mr. Su, don’t embarrass yourself. I don’t share a relation with you.”

Without getting upset, Su Yi explained in chuckles. “Child, you’re just acting out with us.”

Standing in the back, Su Muxuan lowered his head to hide the burning rage in his eyes. Where were the d*mn brat’s manners? If it were him, he would slap her to show her who was boss.

Shu Baiyu scoffed coldly with a taunting look on her face. This person sure flattered himself.

She heard from Jiang Yin that Xixi was indeed the daughter of the Su family. However, they had long thrown her out of the house and cut ties with her.

After finding out that Xixi was Cai Ni, the family shamelessly clung to her, wanting to take her back.

With his eyes on Shen Xi, Huo Yuping dotingly smiled and said, “Go and have fun with your aunt. I need a word with Mr. Su.”

His tone was so affectionate that people would think Shen Xi was his granddaughter.

It did not come as a surprise to Shu Baiyu. The girl was likable, and anyone would fall in love with her following an encounter. Jiang Yin was an example. She was an oddball and never minced her words to anybody, yet now she would not stop bragging about her student.

“Aunty.” Shen Xi caught up to Shu Baiyu who was about to take off.

Shu Baiyu tilted her head and gazed at Shen Xi. Her eyes bore a hint of regret. “I still prefer it if you call me your teacher.”

She was not short of nieces or anyone to call her “Aunt”. However, she desperately needed Shen Xi as a student.

Anxious, Su Yi tried to call out to Shen Xi. In the end, he held his tongue and smiled at Huo Yuping. “Sir, please sit.”

What was the girl trying to pull?

Both his wife and him had sought for her countless times and begged her to come home. Did his wife not mention that Shen Xi was after the Su family’s shares? She was pushing her luck. Did she think the shares could just be handed to her on a silver platter?

Nevertheless, Su Yi could consider putting some shares to her name if she convinced the Huo family to do business with them.

Su Muxuan smirked to himself as Shen Xi and Shu Baiyu ran off.

People nowadays thought they could get under the Su family’s skin. He could overlook the fact that the Huo family was not able to tell the good from the bad, but even Shu Baiyu gave them the cold shoulder. Who was she to act all high and mighty?

Well, they would show these people once they got the Huo family’s Kesi in their hands.

Once outside, Shu Baiyu turned to the girl who was on her tail. “What’s going on?”

Before they left the room, it was weird that her uncle called her an aunt to Shen Xi. No matter how fond her Uncle was with any child, he never expressed such endearment. There was something going on.

“Ms. Shu, Grandpa Huo is taking my mother in as his student.” Shen Xi was smart to catch on to what she was referring to.

“Your mother?” Shu Baiyu was curious as to the kind of talent that had prompted Uncle to accept as a student.

Shen Xi assumed by the look on Shu Baiyu’s face that she mistook the person to be Li Jingran. Shen Xi was quick to explain. “It’s my mom, Yun Jinping. Grandpa Huo looked at her embroidery and was impressed.”

Shu Baiyu grinned. “Can you show me as well?”

Of course, she was aware that it was not Li Jingran. She knew Yun Jinping was the girl’s adoptive mother.

Jiang Yin often praised her in front of Shu Baiyu, saying that Yun Jinping had a unique understanding and a gift on aesthetics and design. Jiang Yin lamented that Yun Jinping would be in the same league as her in the design community had she not given up her dreams and became a housewife.

There were not many in the world who could earn Jiang Yin’s admiration and praise. Yun Jinping must be gifted.

Shen Xi showed the photos as instructed.

Staring at the photos on the phone, Shu Baiyu’s eyes reflected amazement and appreciation. That would explain why Jiang Yin complimented her and Uncle taking her in as a student. She was an invaluable talent. Shu Baiyu was still in awe by the time she put down the phone. “Uncle really hit the jackpot. I want to watch your mother at work.”

Uncle often whined that the young generation in the family let him down. The art of Kesi was bound to disappear without an heir to the Huo family. Uncle would nag at her, pestering her to give up dancing and focus on the family business every time they met.

Now with a student, Shu Baiyu could finally have peace of mind.

“Thank you for the compliment, Ms. Shu,” Shen Xi replied politely.

Art was universal. If Ms. Shu was not obsessed with dancing and instead inherited the family business, she would come out on top in the industry.

“I’m being honest here. Your mom is a rare talent.” Shu Baiyu then asked, “Jiang Yin mentioned that your mom isn’t here with you. When will it be official?”

Shen Xi shook her head. “We hadn’t talked about this.”

Shu Baiyu was in a good mood. “It’s been a while since our home was so lively. Uncle is a proud man and will definitely make it a huge ceremony. Tell your mom to be ready for it as soon as possible.”

Uncle had only accepted one student in his lifetime and during his old age too. It was a must to make sure everything was in order, to liven it up.

The rest of the family members would likely share the same happiness after getting this news. They would not be hurt and called a disappointment anymore.

Technically, they only failed to live up to Uncle’s expectations because his demands were too high. Grandpa once said that he was a genius that only appeared once in a lifetime. How could a mediocre gifted person weigh up against a rare genius like him?

It was unfair to apply the standard of a genius against a regular joe.

Sitting across from each other, Shen Xi and Shu Baiyu chatted.

Shu Baiyu soon got up to grab her laptop and showed her a clip.

Shen Xi had no idea what Shu Baiyu was up to, but the video completely took her breath away, sucking her soul right into it.

The dancer with a lithe physique in the clip was graceful and beautiful, thinning the lines between beauty, vibrancy, and otherworldliness. There was no better word to describe her poise.

The dancer was Ms. Shu Baiyu.

Shu Baiyu observed as the girl immersed herself in the performance. She could tell that Shen Xi loved dancing through her passionate eyes. Only those with a passion would revel in the performance and Shu Baiyu’s perception of Shen Xi was right on the money. Sure, Shen Xi said that she would not focus solely on dancing, but she never mentioned her dislike for the art.

At the end of the clip, Shen Xi looked at the beautiful woman with ardent eyes. “Is this the new dance you choreographed?”

As expected from Ms. Shu, the best of the best in Chinese dances. Her dance represented Chinese dances in its highest caliber no matter artistically, technicality, or performance-wise.

It was amazing!

The astonishment evoked from the dance could not be expressed in words. To someone who was familiar with performance art just like Shen Xi, she was aware that the creation of such choreography could only be achieved with the combination of an incredible gift and years of experience.

“Yes. I got the muse from your Corn Poppy dance. What do you think?” Shu Baiyu stared at her in delight and pointed at an open space. “Dance for me.”

Shen Xi put on a serious look. “I’d need to watch it one more time.”

Shu Baiyu was dumbstruck by her remark. She was only joking just now and the girl took it seriously. For her to be able to dance away after watching twice, Shen Xi was definitely the student she had her eye on indeed. Shu Baiyu nodded. “Sure.”

It took Shu Baiyu three and a half months to choreograph and improve the dance for the effects it had today.

Guan Yue had been keeping up with the progress alongside Shu Baiyu during the choreography and till today, Guan Yue could only manage around 90% of the dance.

A short distance away, Guan Yue approached in a hurry. Her usually calm face bore a hint of worry.
