Without quotation marks:

Gu Lun watched with great interest on the side, his lips curling slightly. Zhang Chenxi turned his gaze towards him. Based on his impression of this school heartthrob, he was still a decent person. His inner thoughts wildly transmitted to him: "Why don't you hurry up and scold this junior of yours! What a trash person!"

But Gu Lun didn't say anything. He shrugged and took a step forward, heading straight towards the elevator.

He then noticed that there were still quite a few people following behind them. Everyone was wearing similar clothes, seemingly training outfits for ballet dance. On the edges of the pants, there was even an emblem of the Sofia Art Academy: a beautiful rose surrounded by three ribbons of different colors.

Now, every time Zhang Chenxi sees this logo, she feels a headache.

Ever since entering this school, in just three days, everything I've encountered has been a fucking mess. Except for my roommate, who is a decent person, what else can make me have high expectations for my five-year college life?

Taking a deep breath, Zhang Chenxi zipped up his coat and paid no mind to the peculiar gazes from the people at the Dance Academy. He strode out of the piano room building.

Glancing at the watch, it was only a little past four in the afternoon.

Go to the internet cafe later...

"All attention, especially freshmen! Although today is the first class, I want to remind you that our midterm exam is scheduled for the end of October! Before that, you must perform a five-minute solo dance routine! You can choose your own music, but you can only use live piano accompaniment! No playing songs from your phone is allowed! Remember, the exam is not only about testing your technique but also your understanding of the music and your ability to blend with it! So make sure you are well-prepared when selecting your piece! As for the sophomores, I won't remind you anymore! And remember, the weather is getting colder, so dress warmly and take care of your health! Alright, dismissed!"

The teacher raised his hand and elegantly clapped in the air, instantly relaxing the previously tense dance studio.

Gu Lun shook his legs and jogged over to the piano. He quickly sat on the stool and said, "Hey, Youyou, how about we stick with the old duo? Can you accompany me on the piano?"

Bai You was organizing the sheet music when she turned her head and smiled gently. "Alright, but don't choose anything too difficult. I'm afraid I won't play it well."

"You? Can't play well? Don't tease me! With your reputation as the top piano major, who else could play a difficult piece well?" After some playful banter, Gu Lun stretched his back with force. The weather was getting colder, and his body was becoming stiff. At the beginning of the semester, there was intense basic training, and after two hours, his whole body was sore.

I looked around and saw that most of the people in the room had already dispersed, leaving only a few individuals tidying up the last remaining tasks.

Gu Lun's eyes shot a glance towards the tall figure in the corner.

Fang Zhou can be considered as my direct junior brother. His teacher is none other than my childhood mentor, so naturally, I have heard of this person. He has a good physique, excellent innate talent, and is also very hardworking; one could say that he was born for ballet. I had never met him before, but today was the official introduction as we attended a class together.

Compared to himself, his physical strength seems to be slightly better, and his flexibility is also excellent, especially his long legs, which are like a work of art even when he just stands there.

Maybe in the future, they will become a strong opponent.

But what about him and the boy wearing glasses? What's going on? They seem to have made a connection as if they've known each other for a long time.
