Singing Contest
“Who cares about him? It has nothing to do with us.” Pinliang said flatly. “If he wants to be boss then let him do it, as long as he doesn’t cross us we’ll let him do what he wants.”
“Oh? Liang Bro, why are you so composed?” Xiaofu said, stunned.
“Boss, four young masters… These are things for kids!” Pinliang said. “We’re mature now, this isn’t for us anymore. People who truly are strong stay silent.”
“Oh, I understand!” Xiaofu nodded.
“We’ll watch from the sidelines. If Xie Yufeng messes with Lin Yi then that’d be good, but if not, it’s nothing to do with us in the first place.” Pinliang said.
“Alright, the three of you sit at the right side, far back!” The teacher said while pointing. “There’s an empty table there, and since you three know each other, just sit there first. I’ll make new arrangements once there are suitable seats!”
The homeroom teacher wanted them to sit in front, but it was clear that these kids didn’t come here to study, so she treated them more coldly.
But Yufeng and his two lackeys weren’t picky and didn’t mind where they sat. Listening to the teacher’s orders, Yufeng nodded politely. “Yes, teacher!”
His proper attitude gave the teacher a good impression. She thought that perhaps Yufeng’s family assigned him these two lackeys, and he didn’t have anything to do with it!
Lin Yi looked at Yufeng—he didn’t look in his direction, so he shook his head. Was he being too careful?
But, just after Lin Yi looked away, Yufeng glanced at Lin Yi for just a quick instant before turning away and walking to his seat.
Lin Yi’s sixth sense, of course, was extremely strong—that one instant was enough to let Lin Yi feel it!
Yufeng looked at him—why would he do that? Could it be because he looked at him first?
After all, mystics were all very good at sensing things. As long as Lin Yi didn’t intentionally hide his gaze, Yufeng would have been able to feel him looking at him! It’s only normal for him to look back!
“Alright, now that the introductions have been done I have something to announce!” The teacher said after Yufeng, Panghu, and Congming sat down. “To reduce stress from studying, we’ve decided to let everyone relax and add some spice to your twelfth-grade lives, we’re organizing a singing competition! The winners in class will proceed to compete with the other winners in their classes! This isn’t compulsory. Those who are interested can do a solo or even a group singing, and those who aren’t can also spectate! Of course, you don’t have to sing if you want to participate, you can rap too—isn’t that pretty popular these days?”
The words caused a wave of laughter among the students. It was true, the twelfth grade was dry and boring, so small events like these gave them excitement! A singing contest. This used to be organized one or two grades before, and they didn’t think much of it. The moment they entered the twelfth grade, however, they had to study a lot more all of a sudden., and so these rare occasions were extremely valuable!
And so, everyone was very responsive to what the teacher said.
“You can all practice singing once you finish studying at night. It’s an extracurricular activity, but if you were to win the competition it’d be something worth celebrating!” The teacher said. “I hope everyone can participate! The top ten of the entire grade can win a sponsorship from a thousand to up to ten thousand!”
“Wow—” Everyone got even more excited at the mention of prize money. The people at this school were rich, but most of them still got in using their grades—part of this percentage were from poor families, and ten thousand was a big sum for them!
If just one singing competition was enough to get ten thousand, then it’d be worth it!
And so, even those who wanted to be spectators were considering participating.
“Yao Yao, do we want to enter?” Yushu said.
“Of course.” Mengyao nodded. “Let’s go practice later.”
Mengyao’s father was part of the board of this school, and as the Miss in this school, she naturally supported everything that the school organized, and so each time an event was hosted she’d always participate!
She didn’t want people to be talking about her negatively since her identity was a little sensitive. She had to make an example.
“We can’t do it at home, it won’t be as good as if we did it in a KTV! Let’s go do it at a KTV!” Yushu said, grabbing the chance to go out and play.
“KTV…” Mengyao hesitated, but Yushu was right. The karaoke system at home was done when they renovated the place, but they rarely touched it and there weren’t any new songs in there. They didn’t even know if it worked, and so Yushu’s plan made sense.
But Mengyao heard that KTV’s weren’t a particularly safe place, and there were a lot of society’s people there… Two girls like them, going to a place like that, wasn’t safe. “Then let Lin Yi come with us. Send him a text and see if he has time tonight.”
“OH, okay!” She was about to do that regardless of whether Mengyao asked her to.
“Ah, and call Tang Yun, too.” Mengyao felt that bringing LIn YI without Tang Yin wouldn’t be appropriate.
“Tang Yun… Okay then!” Yushu nodded, a little unwilling. She subconsciously treated her as a love rival, but Mengyao seemed to have accepted her a lot more. Yushu wasn’t used to it.
Xiaoxiao, on the other hand, was talking to Lin Yi about the competition.
“Lin Yi, are you participating?” Xiaoxiao asked.
“I can’t sing.” Lin Yi said flatly.
“You don’t know how to sing? I’ll teach you, I know how to sing! We can do a duet!” Xiaoxiao suggested.
“Not interested.” Lin Yi replied.
