Chapter 13: Hardwork pays off

There had always been a tradition in their school for the third year of senior high students. They would have several comeptitions. The first one would be art class performance in which the class would compete in song composing and stage performance.

As an art person herself, Chen Li Xue was good at dancing. She was also chosen as the representative to be one of the dancers to perform in an Asian Conference. Not only in dancing, she was known to be good at writing script and acting in drama. Most of the stage performances in the art organization would be handled by her. Thus, she was chosen indirectly to handle the stage perfomance after she proposed an idea.

The song was about Christmas as their performance aqa1à1was near Christmas. In their class, there was a girl called Yun Li. She was the most mature as well as the wisest person in the class despiter her young age. She had an exceptional talent in music and the most inspiring was her perception. She seemed to be a middle-aged woman clamored in school uniform.

Yun Li was indirectly chosen as the one who handled the song composition after getting several ideas from other friends who were also good at music. She also gathered the poetic friend to write down about Christmas. Then she arranged into a deep and meaningful Christmas.

'God, we know the time is truly Yours from beginning to the end. Christmas is not what we give and what we take. Giving little things and hoping for ten folds.'

Listening to the song gave Chen Li Xue insipiration for the stage perfomance. She gave an idea of dancing under the ultraviolet,or they usuall called as black light. Perhaps, they could also use lightstick. That idea was accepted by Yun Li. After that, they discussed with their teacher in which they decided to use torch insetad of ultraviolet light.

Refreshing. Even the most bandit student in the class agreed to obediently practise for the performance. It was not a tacky performance. It was not an embarassing one. It was a cool performance.

Since then,both Yun Li and Chen Li Xue worked together as the leaders and guided the class for the amazing performance. As they had the same value and principle, they managed to cooperate very well. There was no issue between the two leaders. They were even known as dedicated leaders.

They were willing to walk for an hour long journey in order to buy the new torches for the class a day before the performance. When their friends knew that they walked so far, they all asked worriedly "Why didn't you tell us ? We can drive you guys there."

"No, it's fine. You guys need to rest after all."

The sacrfices and the teamwork brought glory to the whole class. They won first in three categories. The best in music arrangement, the best in lyrics, the best in performance.

All of their friend felt grateful for the two leaders' leading. Even one of the girls cried and hugged Chen Li Xue "Ah Xue, thank you for your guidance and hardwork."
