[Dance + teachers and students + reality orientation]
Sixteen-year-old Shen Lu is a first-year high school student in a key high school in Hongkou District, Shanghai.
Stubborn and disobedient. At school, he dared to hand in blank papers when the teacher didn't like him. At home, he bullied his good-tempered cousin until he was unable to fight back. She's not bad, she's just - if you want to convince her, you have to show your true ability.
In her freshman year of high school, she became obsessed with hip-hop and jumped into it. In the spring of her freshman year, she walked into the dance studio and stood in the front row.
Twenty-six-year-old Gu Qi is a contracted dancer of this studio. He talks little and is cold-faced. He does not make any videos during class and only speaks with his actions. She never talks nonsense when teaching. She will do an action five times. If you can keep up, just follow. If you can't, she will come to your side and lead you to do it - but she won't explain a word more. She is not impatient, she just believes that the body can remember things longer than the brain.
One is a rebellious child who refuses to be controlled, with a hard mouth but a soft heart, who wants to be controlled but dare not speak out; the other is an extremely restrained adult who uses silence to pressure and uses actions to care. There are ten years between them, a classroom, and a "sister" that they can never say out loud.
This is not a story about being together. This is a story about approach, temptation, restraint, and how sixteen-year-old Shen Lu stands in his own shadow and learns to trust that person.

Shen Lu's psychology is described very delicately, and every thought touches my heart. I highly recommend reading it.
It looks great, the characters are well created, and the description of Shen Lu is really great.
