Chapter 34 The Gathering Storm (3)

"Oh yes! Lin Ze, you are so awesome!" The timid four-eyed boy cheered excitedly after Lin Ze put the black eight into the ball bag. The nymphomaniac Zhao Han next to him was also very excited, and seemed to be more excited than himself.

I am still happy to have a high-quality and inexpensive princess dress.

Han Xiaobao also raised his fist, looked at Lin Ze with a slight change in his eyes, and cursed: "This guy seems to be good at everything. He can pretend to be a pig and eat the tiger in any situation. He is really unpredictable."

Han Xiaoyi had long been accustomed to Lin Ze's amazing arms and didn't find it strange at all. On the contrary, she didn't understand why Han Xiaobao didn't take action when he was betting on the first game with that arrogant young man.

As for Dong Xiaowan, she glanced at Lin Ze blankly. This man was really good at everything except not paying attention in class.

Lin Ze put down his cue, ignored the compliments from the four-eyed boy and others, turned to look at the arrogant young man, kept smiling, but said nothing.

The arrogant young man was already intimidated by Lin Ze's skills, but he couldn't bear to take advantage of it. He took two steps forward and shouted to Lin Ze in a low voice: "Boy, do you know who I'm with? Be careful.

He was stabbed in the back several times and lost his life."

He spoke so quietly that only Lin Ze could hear him. But facing the threat from this arrogant young man, Lin Ze smiled and said, "It's just that you are too greedy."

"Are you looking for death?" The angry young man looked stern, and several of his companions behind him also made some movement. It seemed that they would pounce on him if anything went wrong.

"Try it." Lin Ze was still smiling, but there was a hint of coldness in his eyes.

Seeing that Lin Ze was calm in the face of danger, the arrogant young man had quite the demeanor of a general. He knew that he had encountered a tough situation this time. If he really took action, it would be difficult for a few people on his side to take advantage. By then, the medical expenses would have to be paid.

I had to pay for it myself, but I couldn't get it back. I suppressed my resentment and said viciously: "We'll see, sooner or later I'll make you look good."

Lin Ze smiled and said nothing.

But Han Xiaobao and others wanted to stop them from giving money, but Lin Ze finally stopped them and said to them: "I'll take it as soon as you see fit."

Han Xiaobao curled his lips and said disdainfully: "We have a lot of people here, are we afraid that we can't defeat them?"

"Do you know why they didn't take action?" Lin Ze asked.

"You're afraid of us." Han Xiaobao said proudly.

Lin Ze shook his head and said calmly: "If the leader starts a group fight with you, the medical expenses will be charged to him. It's not that he's afraid that he won't be able to beat us, but that he can't afford the expense. And you, and

If they beat me, you will probably all lose your reputation and you will no longer have classes. Who will bear the blame of the school? Have you forgotten Purple Flower’s school rules?"

Han Xiaobao was left speechless by Lin Ze's continuous questioning. Naturally, he had not forgotten Zijinhua's school rules. At least, fights within the school had not been publicized, and at worst, they would have been expelled. Once a fight outside the school was discovered, the consequences would be more serious. They fell

It’s not that I haven’t fought before, but I’m afraid that I’ll be caught if I’m not smart enough. It will make them walk around with nothing to eat.

Han Xiaoyi also gave her younger brother a hand and scolded: "Lin Ze is right, just give up when you see fit. If Lin Ze hadn't taken action, you would have been cheated out of 40,000 yuan. Didn't you still make 10,000 yuan now? Let's come out.

You are looking for fun, not a fight. Come on, take the money you won and treat us to some fun."

The Happy that Han Xiaoyi calls is real Happy to all the students. Because they have never been here, and they have never spent money here. The reason is that it is too expensive.

The Royal Hotel is the only six-star hotel in Huaxin City. A meal here, even if there is no wine, just a table of dishes and a few bottles of mineral water will cost tens of thousands. Not that these dishes are worth it.

Price, but the high-quality services here, the high land prices, the high-end luxurious decoration, and the high-end music performances on each floor all cost money.

Han Xiaoyi didn't want to show off, so she just used the ten thousand yuan to spend. She ordered a table of food and occupied a round table in the lobby on the third floor, where she drank drinks and some snacks and listened to music. Even the band here was pretty good.

Famous. I heard that it was a team that specially accompanied the concerts of top domestic stars in the past few years. Later, when I got older and couldn't keep up mentally, I worked part-time here to earn some wages.

Lin Ze is a monster who can appreciate both refined and popular culture. He can dance yangko with you and listen to Beethoven's music with you. This is also thanks to his work experience in the past few years. Whatever environment you are in, you must adapt to life in this environment.

. Once the trap is exposed, he may lose his life. He can stay close to the shark line for two years without being discovered. It is because of his super adaptability.

The students sat on soft chairs, and Zhao Han said with emotion: "I have never eaten a meal worth ten thousand yuan in my life, but this time I finally have the capital to show off."

Wang Xi rolled his eyes and said disdainfully: "Master Tai, can you learn the etiquette and posture of a poor Taoist? Even if you learn one tenth of it, it will be enough for you to use for your whole life."

"Bah, you old bald donkey, you dare to quarrel with my aunt, do you think the last oral ulcer brought you a heavy shadow?" Zhao Han glared at him.

Dong Xiaowan and others also appreciate the style here. It has to be said that the style of the Royal Hotel is indeed enjoyed by people with taste. The ordinary working people really do not have such wealth. Just the degree of demandingness of a certain detail in the decoration style,

It also left Dong Xiaowan, who knew a bit about art, speechless.

At half past five, the dishes started to be served, and the empty round tables nearby were also occupied by guests. Seeing that Lin Ze's table was full of young people who looked like school, everyone looked at Lin Ze with curiosity.

At first glance, I didn’t take it to heart.

There are countless rich second and third generation people in this city. It’s someone’s child’s birthday, and the parents gave them money to go out and play. Rich people who have seen a lot of weird things have a poor tolerance for weird things.

Still very good.

"Boys, have you felt the pleasure of being the center of attention? Yes, right now, God knows how many people's eyes are focused on us." Wang Xi said with great exaggeration.

Han Xiaoyi sighed and said, "Eat, I'm going to sing karaoke later."

For these high school students, after getting over this novelty, they no longer feel how great this place is. There is not much insight at all. If an ordinary white-collar worker with a salary of several thousand a month eats a meal here,

After a while, I am afraid that in the next year I will be thinking about why others can call this place their home and eat every day, but I can't. The experiences are different, the life experiences are different, and the insights I have after encountering something that makes my soul throb.

It's also different.

After eating this rich dinner, Han Xiaobao picked his teeth, threw a wad of banknotes on the table, and said with a rich look on his face: "Waiter, pay the bill."

Everyone's legs weakened and they almost fell down.

Han Xiaoyi was angry and funny, twisting his ears and said: "What does my sister usually teach you? Don't pretend to be cool, be careful of lightning strikes."

————

The place where they sang karaoke was a decent KTV, not too luxurious, but not a mixed bag either. This KTV was a national chain, and Han Xiaoyi had a VIP card, which offered a 40% discount on consumption, so these students could still afford it.

In the past, drinking was not strenuous. As we all know, in a slightly higher-end KTV, the alcohol is usually more expensive.

After choosing a large private room, Zhao Han was the first one who couldn't help but want to show off his singing voice. Da Ma Jin Dao ordered a song "Qinghai-Tibet Plateau", which made more than a dozen students excited.

This kind of song is really inspiring. Normally, you would be despised to death if you hum a few lines, but in KTV, it is an excellent choice to cheer up. After singing one song, the students took turns singing. They squatted in the corner and grabbed a bottle.

Lin Ze, who has been listening to songs for a while, made a rough review. Zhao Han, Han Xiaoyi and Dong Xiaowan generally have better singing voices, and among these three, Han Xiaoyi is the best at singing. The other two only have clear and nice voices at best. They have the essence of a song.

His skills are not smooth. Zhao Han has a talent problem, while Dong Xiaowan is a little reserved in this kind of situation and has not yet been able to let go of his courage.

As for Wang Xi and his ilk, they were just here to cause trouble. Even if they were tone-deaf, they were shouting hoarsely. If the private room hadn't been well soundproofed, they would probably have caused public outrage.

Finally, the group of people encouraged Lin Ze to play a song. Seeing that they were in high spirits, he put down his wine glass and asked Wang Xi to tune a song called "You Are Not Really Happy":

The crowd was crying/You just want to become a transparent color/You will never have dreams or pain or heartbeats again/You have decided/You have decided/You endure it quietly/Hold yesterday tightly in your fists

/ And the sweeter the memories, the more hurtful they are / The more they leave dense, deep and shallow cuts on the palms of your hands / You are not truly happy / Your smile is just a protective color you wear / You decide not to hate / You also decide not to

Love/lock your soul in a body that is locked forever/the world laughed/so you smiled gregariously/when survival was the rule and not your choice/so you wandered and stumbled with tears in your eyes/you

It’s not real happiness/your smile is just a protective color you wear/you decide not to be happy anymore/you also decide not to love/lock your soul in a body that will be locked forever...

The rhythm of this song sounds brisk and long, but the lyrics convey a long artistic conception through straightforward vocabulary. Lin Ze's voice is mellow and deep, which is completely different from *** lead singer Ashin's clear timbre, but this song is inherently lonely.

The desolate tone is performed by Lin Ze's highly contagious voice, which can more accurately express the artistic conception of this song. At the end of the song, Lin Ze almost performed it in a hoarse voice, coupled with the poignant lyrics, it perfectly fit

The flavor of the whole song.

When Han Xiaoyi and others listened to this song, they all looked thoughtful. You are not really happy, your smile is just the protective color you wear. More or less, these seventeen or eighteen-year-old boys were thinking about the lyrics.

, there will be some enlightenment.

The reason why Lin Ze chose this song was because it fit his mood at the time when he first listened to it. So he was deeply impressed by this song.

After the song ended, the students applauded one after another, and Wang Xi and others even roared to play another song.

Lin Ze couldn't refuse, so he sang another song "Clouds from My Hometown" that was popular in the 1980s, and then let him go.

Everyone was singing, drinking, chatting and punching, and the atmosphere was so harmonious. Lin Ze looked at their lives with a somewhat cold eye. A trace of envy and yearning could not help but arise in his heart.

Lin Ze was only two years older than them, but at their age, he was already living a devilish life of desperately completing tasks and trying to survive. Not to mention a peaceful sleep, he couldn't even guarantee three meals a day.

The thoughtful Dong Xiaowan was keenly aware of Lin Ze's depression. Somehow, her heart softened slightly. She sat over and said softly: "Don't you seem very happy?"
