17: Chapter 17 A Surprise from Dilina

"Brother Wang, you know that was a long time ago. I was just an ignorant youth. If I hadn't attended this gathering, I would have forgotten all about it."

After Chu Ge finished speaking, Wang Qiang gave him a thumbs up.

Yan Bing felt slightly awkward after Feng Zheng introduced his new status, and she forced a smile at her old classmates.

Toward Chu Ge, she didn't even seem to have the courage to smile.

...

As glasses clinked and the wine flowed, everyone was still full of excitement in the joyful and warm atmosphere, and they all requested to move to the next venue.

Aside from giving Chu Ge a warning at the beginning, Feng Zheng didn't really cause him much trouble afterward.

Thus, encouraged by a few classmates who loved to stir up trouble, Chu Ge's group ended the dinner early and headed to a KTV.

Inside a luxury suite at Regal Entertainment.

Chu Ge couldn't even remember the last time he went karaoke; he rarely visited such places.

The reason: he was tone-deaf.

So Chu Ge didn't join the crowd at the front; instead, he pulled Wang Qiang and a few other male classmates aside to start a card game.

There were bound to be a few mic hogs among the classmates; leave it to them, and they could sing for you all night long.

"How's Chu Ge's singing?" Feng Zheng asked the classmate next to him nonchalantly.

"Him? He doesn't know how to sing," Yan Bing replied casually.

"You certainly know a lot!"

Yan Bing knew she had misspoken, so she didn't answer and lowered her head.

Feng Zheng looked at Chu Ge, who was in the middle of a heated card game with Wang Qiang, and gave a cold smile.

Picking up the microphone, Feng Zheng walked over to Chu Ge.

"Classmates, how about we let the most handsome guy in our class, Chu Ge, perform a song for everyone?"

"Great! Yeah!"

"Haha, it's over. Chu Ge is going to make a fool of himself now!"

"..." several classmates whispered among themselves.

Chu Ge looked up, squinting his eyes as he stared at Feng Zheng.

"Damn, this guy just won't quit."

"System Big Brother, it's time for your Doraemon to step in!"

"Ding! Host, there are items in the 'Other' category of the Store System. You can check them yourself!"

"Oh right, how could I forget?"

Chu Ge hurriedly found the Arts and Literature column in the 'Other' category of the Store System.

"Exchange for Permanent Master Level Singer: 10,000 prestige points.

Exchange for Temporary Master Level Singer: 100 prestige points.

Host's prestige points: 200."

"Heh, Big Brother, do you think I even have a choice?"

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for exchanging for Temporary Master Level Singer. Effective for 24 hours. Remaining prestige points: 100."

"I really thank you for that!"

"I'll have to research what the hell prestige points are later!"

After finishing his exchange with the system, Chu Ge looked at Feng Zheng, who was waiting with a fake smile to see him fail.

Chu Ge had a sudden inspiration.

"You brought this on yourself. Just don't go crying to Uncle Wang in a moment!"

Chu Ge took the microphone and went straight to the song selection console, typing in the title.

You Must Be Happy

On the screen, the intro to a gentle love song began to play, and the classmates all quieted down.

"Walking home alone along the streetlights

Calling an old friend

Is the weather good where you are

Is there any news that can be told as a joke

Memories and I both dislike speaking

Occasionally, I'll think of her..."

The moment Chu Ge opened his mouth with Master Level skill, the entire class was stunned.

The cigarette Feng Zheng had just lit fell to the floor with a 'thud'...

"Holy crap, Chu Ge's voice... I feel like it's even more amazing than the original singer!" Wang Qiang murmured.

"Wow, Chu Ge, I love you!"

Several female classmates began to whistle wildly.

"Some concerns remain in my heart

But some loves must settle at opposite ends of the earth

Thinking of her in the dead of night

Of the flowers she gave

And the heart-wrenching words of love we spoke

Gambling on a chip of happiness

Thinking of her in the bustling streets

Is she doing well now

But I cannot give you the answer you want

But You Must Be Happy!"

...

After Chu Ge finished the song, he looked toward Yan Bing meaningfully for a moment before stepping off the stage.

Yan Bing's mind was currently a total blank; she had short-circuited.

She remembered that Chu Ge was tone-deaf in high school, yet this song seemed to be sung at an entirely different level.

And in the lyrics...

Yan Bing blushed. Although the lights in the private room were dim, she could feel her face burning in waves!

Feng Zheng looked at the dazed Yan Bing, and the second cigarette he had just lit fell to the floor with a 'thud' again...

On Chu Ge's side, he was already surrounded by female classmates, all clamoring for him to sing another one.

Chu Ge was about to refuse when he caught sight of his phone flashing on the table and quickly picked it up.

"You rogue, where are you?"

"At a class reunion. We're singing at a KTV right now."

"Singing? I love singing the most. I want to go too. Is it convenient?"

"They would love for you to join, but you're in Magic City. By the time you get here and back, we'll have already left. Stop joking!"

"Who said I'm in Magic City? I'm right here in H-City. Hurry up, send the location! Come out and welcome this princess!"

"Huh?"

Chu Ge sent a location to Dilireba Nazha, then pulled Wang Qiang beside him and headed outside.

"Hey, hey, hey, Old Ge, if you don't want to sing, then don't sing. Why are you getting all worked up!"

"I really am in a hurry, but it's for something else. Hurry up and come out with me."

The two of them walked to the entrance of Regal Entertainment.

"So, I have a friend coming over in a bit. Do you think it's convenient?"

"Male or female?"

"A girl!"

"Is she pretty?"

"Pretty!"

"How pretty?"

"Uh, as pretty as Dilireba Nazha!"

"Convenient!"

"..."

Chu Ge was speechless. What kind of best friend was this!

About 20 minutes later.

A beam of light hit them from afar, followed closely by the surging roar of a 911 engine.

The red 911 came to a sudden halt in front of Chu Ge. Dilireba Nazha opened the car door, leaned against the window, and looked at Chu Ge with her big, sparkling eyes.

"Big rogue, long time no see!"

Today, Dilireba Nazha wore a bright red woolen coat, her flowing long hair tied with a red and white hairclip.

,

Below, she wore a slightly asymmetrical pleated black short leather skirt, with black silk stockings covering her entire legs, subtly shimmering.

Playful and wild!

Coming to his senses, Chu Ge hurriedly stepped forward to block her, as several passersby at the entrance were already staring.

"Long time my foot, we just saw each other the day before yesterday!"

As he spoke, he dragged Dilireba Nazha toward the lobby, and as he passed Wang Qiang, he even reached out and kicked him.

"Stop daydreaming and let's go!"

"Oh..."

"Hey, wait, Old Ge, introduce us first so I can get to know her!"

"We'll do introductions once we're in the room! You go ahead and scout the way!"

"Oh, oh, okay!"

Wang Qiang finished speaking and hurriedly ran ahead, not forgetting to look back at Dilireba Nazha as he ran.

"Big rogue, surprised?"

Wearing a large mask, Dilireba Nazha faced Chu Ge, cupping her face with her hands and swaying left and right.

"For me, it's a surprise; for them, I'm afraid it'll be a shock!"

"Haha!"

As they talked, the two reached the door of the private room, and Chu Ge pushed it open and entered.

Wang Qiang, being clever, had already greeted everyone when he went in and turned off the spotlights and atmosphere lights.

The private room was now brightly lit.

Seeing the two enter, Wang Qiang immediately led the group in a bow: "Welcome, Sister-in-Law Chu!"

A bunch of female classmates below started to jeer.

Chu Ge closed the door, looked at Dilireba Nazha, and shrugged helplessly.

Fine, do whatever you want.

Dilireba Nazha looked at Chu Ge, blinked her eyes, and then took off her mask.

"Hello everyone, I am Dilireba Nazha. Um, a good friend of Chu Ge. Sorry for intruding on everyone's gathering!"
