“Sorry, you’ve got the wrong person. I just passed Subject Two of my driving test. I can reverse, but I’m a law-abiding university guy. I will never drive without a license!”
A teasing glint flashed in Fang Yan’s eyes.
“Oil cake?”
“What right do you have to laugh? Pretending you know everything!”
“Thought you were so impressive, laughing so loudly.”
Even when scolding someone, the girl’s stunningly beautiful face looked breathtaking.
Fang Yan was not intimidated by her presence. He explained seriously, “Did you eat mushrooms or something? When did I laugh out loud?”
“You’re clearly hallucinating. I suggest you go to the hospital.”
“Shut up!” The girl’s eyes turned icy as she stared at him. “You have three seconds to disappear from my sight.”
“Three!”
“Two!”
The passenger door opened, and another fairly good-looking girl stepped out. She seemed well aware of the temper of the girl confronting Fang Yan and quickly stepped forward to pull her back.
“Wen Wenya, calm down. If you can’t reverse, then you can’t. Don’t start a conflict.”
“Ordinary people can’t handle your punches. You’ve practiced judo and taekwondo since you were young. If someone else took one of your kicks, they’d cry for a long time.”
Wen Wenya crossed her arms and looked Fang Yan up and down, her gaze as if she were examining a weak little dog.
“What do you mean by that?”
Fang Yan felt insulted and quietly stepped back a few steps.
He clearly saw that beneath Wen Wenya’s denim shorts, her legs were not only long and fair, but also full of strength.
If she kicked him once, wouldn’t he be meeting his ancestors on the spot?
“Tian Xin, don’t worry. I’m not that short-tempered.”
Wen Wenya gave Fang Yan one last glance, as if mocking him.
“Crazy woman.”
“What rotten luck.”
Fang Yan muttered curses under his breath and walked into the KTV.
…
He successfully found the private room number Wang Ziyu had sent.
He gently pushed open the door. Dazzling stage lights flashed and intertwined.
The room was huge, able to accommodate fifty people at once.
A massive LED screen covered one wall, and sofas were arranged in a circle around the table.
Looking at the familiar faces illuminated by the screen’s glow, Fang Yan knew clearly that after tonight, it would probably be hard to see these people again.
After only a few steps inside, deafening music blasted toward him.
“Yingying chicken has a chicken coop~”
“Goose wants to sing goose songs~”
“Thunder echoes all around~”
Fang Yan’s face froze instantly. Which genius was singing “Boundless Oceans, Vast Skies” like this?
Seriously, man?
You’re not selling products or livestreaming. Are you just here to torture people?
When Wang Ziyu saw Fang Yan arrive, he immediately raised his hand. “Yan, over here! I’m here!”
Fang Yan sat beside him. The leather seat felt cool and comfortable.
The seats were exceptionally comfortable. No wonder this private room cost tens of thousands.
If not for Jiang Wanrou, the wealthy young heiress, it would have been difficult to enjoy such an experience.
“Hehe, Yan, why did you come so late?” Wang Ziyu asked with a smile.
“You heartless guy, and you dare to ask? Thanks to you, I got scolded for no reason!”
Fang Yan shot him an annoyed look. After hesitating between alcohol and juice, he chose juice.
He did not want to drink juice, but Jiang Wanrou had made it clear. If he kept drinking, she would tell his mother.
The thought of his mother buzzing in his ear nonstop made him behave immediately.
“Scolded? Tell me quickly!”
Wang Ziyu grabbed Fang Yan’s hand, his curiosity burning fiercely.
“Idiot, go play somewhere else.”
“Yingying chicken has a chicken coop~”
The unbearable noise rang out again.
Fang Yan slammed the table and stood up. “Gao Shijie, this is outrageous. Singing this badly and you still dare to sing?”
“I’ll sing. Let me show you what true heavenly music sounds like!”
“Hey! I haven’t finished yet!”
Gao Shijie was just getting into it when Fang Yan cut him off.
Gao Shijie pointed at him. “If you’ve got the guts, duel me and fight for the right to sing!”
“Duel you? I won’t smash your glasses!” Fang Yan laughed.
The two started arguing over the microphone.
The classmates sitting around them cheered them on, not afraid to escalate things. Wolf howls filled the room again.
“Awwooo~”
“Fight, fight! Gao Shijie, if your glasses get smashed tonight, stop being a four-eyes!”
“Fang Yan, I support you! Smash his glasses!”
…
On the girls’ side, they started whispering again.
“These boys are so childish. They’re about to become university students, yet they’re still this immature. Can’t they grow up a little?”
“Exactly. They’re so noisy it’s driving me crazy. Their singing is terrible, and they’re deliberately showing off to get Wanwan’s attention.”
“I noticed it long ago. These boys are naive and ridiculous. If they knew Wanwan only wants to study hard and has no interest in dating, they’d realize they’re clowns.”
In the girls’ eyes, the boys had become clowns.
Jiang Wanrou showed no interest in any of this. Her cold, breathtaking face remained expressionless.
Except earlier, when Fang Yan was choosing between alcohol and juice, there had been a subtle change in her expression.
But she hid it well. No one noticed.
Then something happened that shocked all the girls.
Just moments ago, Gao Shijie and Fang Yan had looked ready to fight.
The next second, they were facing each other, hands raised.
“Rock, paper, scissors!”
“I won!”
“Damn it!”
Fang Yan won, so he got to sing.
Although Gao Shijie was unwilling, he respected the result.
The girls were stunned.
How were these boys so strange? One moment they were about to fight, the next they were good brothers deciding things with rock-paper-scissors?
“Hurry up!” Gao Shijie urged from the side.
“Don’t rush. You’re lucky. In three years, no one has ever heard me sing. This time, I’ll let you enjoy it.”
Fang Yan smiled mysteriously.
His former roommates suddenly fell silent.
It was true. In three years of high school, Fang Yan had never sung, not even while showering.
The giant LED screen lit up.
It was a scene from “Armor Hero,” where Emperor Hero fought the Shadow Beast.
Everyone lost it.
Seriously?
Are you reliving your childhood here?
Fang Yan picked up the microphone and took a deep breath.
He waited for the background music.
First came the dialogue from the show.
Emperor Hero had subdued the Shadow Beast.
“I’m giving you one last chance!”
“You can return to your world now!”
…
“Enough nonsense! Until the very end, we won’t know whether you’re destroyed or I perish!”
“If there is a heavenly law in this world, then let it deal with you!”
…
“Evil can never defeat justice!”
“As long as we unite as one, no battle cannot be won, no obstacle cannot be destroyed!”
“Next comes your doom!”
“Metal’s solemn strike!”
…
The background music started.
He sang.
“The life of the universe.”
“Will never cease.”
“Believe in your own body.”
“It always carries hidden potential!”
“Change will always bring the surprise of growth!”
“Brilliant light illuminates.”
“A brand-new world.”
