Classmate Li Zhuangsheng doesn’t want to be reborn

Chapter 485

"Hey——" Li Zhuangsheng was left with embarrassment and speechlessness. After a long while, he said angrily, "Little girl, can you speak more politely..."

Hu Mengdie turned her face away, seeming a little embarrassed, but she still said with all her might: "Why are you pretending, uncle? Haven't you done it with me before?"

Li Zhuangsheng scratched his head. The past was the past and the present is now. Could you please stop talking about what was like in the past? You don’t remember it!
Thinking this way was really a bit of a scumbag, Li Zhuangsheng surrendered decisively: "Okay, I was wrong, I will buy you whatever you want tomorrow."

Hu Mengdie gritted her teeth and said angrily, "So you really want to draw a line between you and me?"

"When did I say we were drawing a line..." Li Zhuangsheng denied, "I have always considered you a friend."

Although I think so, please don't say it out loud! It's like I'm a heartless scumbag.

"Oh..." Hu Mengdie stretched out her voice, then raised an inexplicable smile and repeated, "Friend."

The word "friend" was three parts sad and three parts playful, and the rest was incomprehensible sarcasm. Perhaps he was mocking Li Zhuangsheng, or perhaps he simply thought the word was too hypocritical.

Li Zhuangsheng pretended not to understand. To be honest, every time he faced Hu Mengdie, he was psychologically at a disadvantage. This was mainly because Hu Mengdie before her rebirth was a perfect victim and a born unlucky person.

"Well, so, don't think too much. I am very grateful that you can make friends with Li Xiuyu. She actually doesn't have many close friends." Li Zhuangsheng nodded quickly, "Then I will go back first... Oh, and, I was only 26 years old before I came back. Don't call me uncle, you can call me little brother, thank you."

After making a joke that he thought was funny to ease the atmosphere, Li Zhuangsheng fled back to the KTV box and sat back next to Zhu Zhixue. Zhu Zhixue was drinking water, and when she saw Li Zhuangsheng coming back, she smiled and hugged his arm.

But as soon as he got close, Zhu Zhixue realized something was wrong. How could he smell like another woman?

She pretended to bury her face in Li Zhuangsheng's body and took a deep sniff. It was not Li Xiuyu's. It was Hu Mengdie's. Hu Mengdie had just gone out.

Zhu Zhixue's heart instantly became alert, as if the world was turning upside down. What did the two of them do outside?
"You went to the bathroom just now, why did it take you so long?" Zhu Zhixue asked in a low voice.

"Not long..." Li Zhuangsheng said, thinking that Zhu Zhixue might have asked this question because she saw Hu Mengdie also went out, so he continued, "I saw Hu Mengdie when I came out, and I just said a few words to her."

"Just, did you say a few words?"

"Yes, it's mainly because of her sister. You know, I used to be her sister's tutor!" Li Zhuangsheng avoided the main point.

He felt that he could not be considered to have lied because the origin of the matter was buying an air conditioner for Hu Mengke.

"You didn't do anything else?" Zhu Zhixue stared at Li Zhuangsheng. "You didn't do anything else?"

"Yeah, we just talked a few words..."

Li Zhuangsheng felt a little more confident. Although the content of their conversation was a bit beyond the line, it was indeed just a conversation. Suddenly, he looked at Zhu Zhixue's doubtful and questioning eyes, and suddenly realized, "Oh, and Hu Mengdie fell down due to anemia, so I helped her up."

How could Zhu Zhixue know that I had contact with Hu Mengdie? Her eyes looked like she had caught evidence... Oh, I know, it was the smell. No wonder she sniffed me all over just now. I must be more careful next time.

Wait a minute, when I think about this, it's like a cheating scumbag who is battling wits with his wife at home!
"Really!" Li Zhuangsheng explained, and the doubt in Zhu Zhixue's eyes instantly disappeared. However, although she believed Li Zhuangsheng, she still felt a little resentful in her heart. She didn't say anything, but just silently ordered songs.

Li Zhuangsheng sat on the sofa and played the hand drum for everyone, which almost became his signature performance until it was his turn to sing the song.

Although Li Zhuangsheng wanted to "show off his ugliness", he had to be serious and not mess around. He ordered two songs in total, the first one was "In That Faraway Place".

"In that faraway place
There is a good girl

People passed by her tent
I have to look back nostalgic

her pink smile

好像 红 太阳

her beautiful eyes

Like the bright moon at night..."

Li Zhuangsheng sang the song with great devotion. This song, which was sung by Wang Luobin, the King of Western Songs, is several decades old. However, Li Zhuangsheng is most familiar with Daolang's version, which can be said to be the song he has listened to the most times.

When he was lazy in the playground in high school, he always played this song on repeat. He would lie on the shelf and look up at the night sky, imagining the beautiful girl in the distance.

That was the girl he would never find. She possessed the most simple beauty, and his life would be worry-free when he was with her.

She is the beauty that cannot be obtained, she is the lifelong pursuit in imagination. She is the muse that Li Zhuangsheng once dreamed of, and the regret of his life.

Li Zhuangsheng held Zhu Zhixue's hand, and Zhu Zhixue leaned on Li Zhuangsheng's shoulder with a smile. Hu Mengdie glanced at the two of them with an inexplicable look in her eyes.

It seems like a little sympathy.

She remembered that Li Zhuangsheng had told her that he once liked this song very much. He later looked up information and learned that the story took place in the Jinyintan Grassland in Qinghai. So he once wanted to go to the Jinyintan Grassland in Qinghai.

At that time, Hu Mengdie pretended to be angry and said, "Why, do you want to go find that 'pretty girl' on the grassland?" Li Zhuangsheng immediately smiled and said, "You are the pretty girl I'm looking for." Hu Mengdie just smiled slightly when she heard this, but then she heard Li Zhuangsheng say that when he was in high school, he was sitting in the playground enjoying the wind and playing this song over and over again.

He seemed to miss those years, and also seemed to miss the "distant place" that had never existed, and the "good girl" he had never met.

In fact, everything that happened today had already shown signs, but Hu Mengdie didn’t understand it at that time.

Now she understood, but Zhu Zhixue was still the same as she was back then, so pitiful.

She wouldn't think that this love song was really sung for her, right?

"Not bad, not bad, your singing has improved!"

After the song was over, Zhu Zhixue clapped with a smile.

"I'm sorry for my embarrassment." Li Zhuangsheng also laughed along, because he had hummed along many times and this was his best song.

"Brother, your singing is pretty good. I feel like a light bulb just staying here!"

Yi Yunshui smiled and clapped, but inexplicably, she felt vaguely uncomfortable in her heart.

"It's really good." Hu Mengdie smiled slightly, "You are quite good at singing, but it's a bit too much for you to show your affection in front of us singles!" Zhu Zhixue glanced at Hu Mengdie, and she felt that Hu Mengdie's words were not so annoying. However, her eyes were a little inexplicable and annoying.

But he was not so lucky with the second song, which was Jay Chou's "Blue and White Porcelain". Li Zhuangsheng felt that when singing with a group of young girls, he couldn't just choose old songs that they were not interested in and leave him alone to enjoy himself.

"Blue and White Porcelain" was the first Jay Chou song that Li Zhuangsheng actively listened to. That was when he was in junior high school, and Chenguang launched a pure blue fountain pen named "Blue and White Porcelain Series", on which were printed a few lyrics adapted from "Blue and White Porcelain".

At that time, he didn't know the connection between the two. It was a girl in his class who sang it to him. He thought she sang it very well, so he searched for the original version on his computer, but he felt that it was not as good as the girl's singing... Maybe it was because of preconceived notions.

I can't remember who the girl was who sang to him. It was such a small thing that he couldn't even remember the other person's singing.

Li Zhuangsheng tried his best to sing "Blue and White Porcelain", but he could already feel that he was out of tune. Singing was not his strong point, but it would be even more embarrassing to stop at this time. He gritted his teeth and tried to finish singing, but his voice became more and more out of tune.

"The sky is blue waiting for misty rain, and I'm waiting for you

Smoke curls up from the kitchen, thousands of miles across the river
On the bottom of the bottle, the Han Li imitates the elegance of the previous dynasty

Just think of it as foreshadowing my meeting with you..."

At this moment, a moving voice came from another microphone. It was Zhu Zhixue. She came to help and tried to correct Li Zhuangsheng's rhythm that was gradually getting out of control.

It was Zhu Zhixue, yes, it was Zhu Zhixue. To be more precise, it was Wang Shuangmei.

Li Zhuangsheng remembered that time when he was called to the back of the classroom by the teacher for something and was punished. The pen in his hand accidentally fell and was seen by Wang Shuangmei. After class, Wang Shuangmei said that it looked like Jay Chou's blue and white porcelain.

Jay Chou is very famous and even children know him, but Li Zhuangsheng was not interested in music at the time and had never heard of Jay Chou. He just listened to Wang Shuangmei singing a passage according to the lyrics printed on the pen out of politeness.

He actually forgot about this matter. Although it was indeed a very small daily thing.

Under the lead of Zhu Zhixue, Li Zhuangsheng's rhythm finally returned to the right track. Although it still didn't sound very good, it wasn't so out of tune either.

"Huh..." After singing "Blue and White Porcelain", Zhu Zhixue let out a long sigh and glared at him, "I'm so tired, you almost led me astray!"

"It's my fault, I didn't expect that your singing skills are still so good. This song "Blue and White Porcelain" is as good as it was back then." Li Zhuangsheng spread his hands and smiled apologetically.

"Hmph..." Zhu Zhixue was startled at first, then she remembered what happened back then and couldn't help but pursed her lips and said proudly, "You think!"

"I started listening to "Blue and White Porcelain" after hearing you sing it," said Li Zhuangsheng with a smile.

"Really? Do you like Jay Chou now?"

"It's just so-so. I don't think he sings as well as you."

"Stop talking nonsense!" Zhu Zhixue gently hit him on the chest.

Li Xiuyu looked at the two people interacting like this, then glanced at Hu Mengdie. His lips moved, but he said nothing, and just picked up the microphone.

They sang a few more songs in succession, and then jumped to Benxi's "You're So Cheap, Mistress".

"Who is this..."

"Is it my turn again?"

Before Li Zhuangsheng finished speaking, Zhu Zhixue took the microphone with a smile.

As the long-lost melody sounded, almost everyone's expression changed slightly.

At this time, Benxi's music was quite popular among young girls, especially the song "Xiao San You Are Cheap". Since Li Zhuangsheng was in a liberal arts class, most of the students were girls, so Li Zhuangsheng had heard them mention it.

In the original timeline, he had downloaded music to the girl's MP3 player, and this song was on her playlist. Li Zhuangsheng had listened to the song a few times out of curiosity because of the special title, and he only thought the melody was quite magical and the lyrics were a bit forced to rhyme.

Later, he never listened to it again. He remembered that "Xiao San Ni Ni Jian" was on the blacklist of 15 online music management released in 120, and this song was on the list. At that time, Li Zhuangsheng couldn't quite understand why the song was banned, and he didn't think it was that vulgar. But he didn't listen to Benxi anyway, so he didn't care.

The next time he thought of this song was when he saw the news of Benxi's death on Christmas Day 16. The news said it was suicide, but various conspiracy theories were also rampant on the Internet. He remembered that he had listened to the other party's song before, which was "Xiao San You Are So Cheap".

Fortunately, Benxi was still alive at that time, and "You Are So Cheap, Little San" was not blacklisted, and could even be ordered in KTV.

However, Li Zhuangsheng vaguely remembered the lyrics... Even if he had never heard the song, he could probably tell what it was about just by looking at the name!
"Oh baby San San, do you love me San San
You're always stealing other people's things, aren't you, mistress?

Oh, you are so mean. Why are you so mean?
Oh, you are such a bitch, how can it be so obvious..."

Zhu Zhixue stood up and sang with great emotion. She really has a talent for singing, and she can capture the cute and coquettish flavor of the original singer perfectly.

But Li Zhuangsheng's Taoism was really confused. He understood Zhu Zhixue's underlying message too well. He even suspected that the other party smelled the scent of Hu Mengdie on him, which was the fuse of this incident.

No, it’s not necessary. You... Li Zhuangsheng sighed in his heart and could only hope that Hu Mengdie would not take it to heart.

Zhu Zhixue smiled, as if she was just singing an ordinary song. She glanced at Hu Mengdie, secretly hating her. Today was Li Zhuangsheng's birthday, and she didn't want to do anything to ruin his good mood, but it was okay to choose a song to imply something about someone.

I am her girlfriend, you bitches, please put yourselves in the right place! The mistress hates dogs, please respect yourself!
At this moment, she saw out of the corner of her eye that Li Xiu Yu picked up another microphone and started singing along with her.

"Hey, you are so mean, why are you so mean
Oh, you are such a bitch, how can you be so obvious, so superficial

She pretends to be very shy, but her inner turmoil has long been discovered..."

I was the first one to come, I was here before you, you bitch, it was obviously me first! Whether it was holding hands or kissing, everything was me first! If you have a little self-awareness, get out of here, mistress, don’t disturb my life and his life!

What's going on? Li Xiuyu actually likes this song too? Oh, I've heard her mention Benxi before. Li Zhuangsheng thought, this is great, Li Xiuyu must be helping him out.

If Zhu Zhixue sings alone, her voice is too aggressive and targeted. But when two people sing together, it is not so targeted.

"I feel like I've been scolded." Hu Mengdie moved to Li Zhuangsheng's side and said in a low voice.
