The atmosphere in the room became very strange.
Yue Zheng's smiling face was very vague. The meaning behind his words was also very vague. But the direction of his gaze was very clear. It was enough for most people to fill in the gaps in their minds.
Was he pretending to be unintentional to step on the faces of Luo Nan and the others?
Or was he stepping on the faces of Luo Nan and the others to show off to Tian Si?
Huh? The meaning seemed to be the same … In short, he was stepping on their faces.
Ruan Zihui shot a glance at Mo Han and saw her best friend frown. She giggled and said, "What's the point of changing? We're going to Area A, B, and C. The size of the room is of no use."
"Wow, you're using profanity." Tong Hui made a fuss over nothing.
"You've already dirtied me!" Ruan Zihui's sudden outburst shocked everyone present. Unfortunately, she wasn't a veteran. She couldn't help but laugh as soon as she finished speaking. She covered her face and squatted down.
But in this way, it would prove her words true. Even Tong Hui was dumbfounded. The focus of the entire room had been led astray by her.
Mo Han looked at her in shock. It was just a standpoint. Was there a need to go all out!?
In any case, Ruan Zihui had used Gray-Gray's sacrifice to reverse the atmosphere here. Though she wasn't openly teasing or making fun of them, the men and women were stifling their laughter. They threw the matter of upgrading to the back of their minds.
Yue Zheng gaped, but he was unable to say the words he wanted to say. He knew very well that forcefully reversing the atmosphere was too difficult. If he didn't do it right, it would be very hurtful. In the end, he wanted to make a good impression. He didn't want to run into a wall.
That's right. Yue Zheng was certain that Tian Si was his favorite kind of prey the moment she came in. She had a sense of propriety. She knew when to advance and when to retreat. She had a graceful bearing. She wasn't very old either. She had just begun to mature. This was the kind he was most obsessed with in recent years.
In comparison, though Mo Han was young and beautiful, she had a prickly temperament. If things went wrong, she would torment someone to death.
Yue Zheng's gaze lingered on Tian Si. The more he looked, the more he felt that she was to his liking.
He had yet to figure out why such an outstanding beauty would be friends with a typical otaku brat like Luo Nan. However, he dared to bet with his eyes that the two weren't that close. Luo Nan's polite behavior spoke volumes.
Oh, the first part was a little too hasty. After all, this was the social circle of Mo Han and Mo Peng. If he was too forceful, it might produce the opposite of the desired result. However, once they entered the amusement park, that might not be the case.
A smile reappeared on Yue Zheng's face. He shrugged and acted as if nothing had happened. He no longer mentioned the matter of upgrading the cabin. He slowly took off his jacket and prepared to change his equipment.
Just then, colorful lights flashed in the private room, followed by impassioned music and a voice in the background. "Explorers, I admire your courage. Now, let's move on to more dangerous areas!"
"What happened?"
"The equipment is locked."
"This is an upgrade!"
"Yue Zheng, what the hell are you doing?" Ruan Zihui shouted again.
Everyone's gazes turned towards Yue Zheng. Most of their gazes were filled with rebuke. No matter what you want to do, this attitude of acting first and reporting later is too unsightly!
However, Yue Zheng also displayed an innocent appearance. Half of his jacket had been taken off, and there was still a sleeve hanging on his upper arm. He froze just like that, facing over a dozen gazes with a blank expression.
A knock came from the door during this awkward and tense moment. Then the outer door was pushed open, and a young man wearing a perfectly straight suit walked in with a smile. "Zhengster, it's just an upgrade. What are you hesitating for? At most, it'll be on my tab. I'll act first and report later …. Oh wow, you really have quite a few new friends."
How wonderful!
Yue Zheng's entire face lit up. He never expected that this fellow would play such a trick. Perhaps it was the Shanghai style, or perhaps it was some other reason. But no matter what, Yue Zheng had extricated himself from a passive situation. This was truly a battle where he could raise his eyebrows in elation and turn things around!
He tore off the jacket hanging on his arm and took a deep breath. Only then did he walk over with a smile. "Brother Fan, you're too fast."
The young man surnamed Fan came in. It was clear at a glance that he was an exquisite character polished in society. He hammered Yue Zheng's chest, displaying an intimate attitude. Then he turned towards the room, his smile even wider. "My surname is Fan, Fan Qu. I'm in charge of this branch, so I might be two years older. This is the first time I'm meeting most of you younger brothers and sisters, but you're all Zhengster's classmates, and Zhengster is my younger brother's childhood friend. We're all just strangers. "
Fan Qu spoke quickly, but each word was clear. "There are many guests today. If there's any place I've neglected, please don't take offense. I've added a few fruit plates and refreshments to the luxurious compartment as an apology to my younger brothers and sisters. In the future, when you come here, you can look for me directly for matters like reserving a private room. If you can't find one, just mention my name and I'll do my best to arrange it properly … "
Yue Zheng's heart warmed up when he heard him say this. In the past, he had somewhat looked down on this "Brother Fan" who had a strong social air, but now his opinion had changed greatly.
Brother Fan was indeed a busy man. He picked up the phone in the time it took to say a few words. He smiled and waved to everyone before leaving with quick steps.
Though he had come and gone in a hurry, Yue Zheng had already reshuffled the rotten cards in his hand with this trip. He had used a king bomb and four twos to play the bottom line. It would be hard for him to lose again.
The more confident he was, the more natural Yue Zheng's attitude became. He no longer needed to flaunt anything. He just needed to spread his hands and face everyone, assuming the most magnanimous posture. "Fine. I didn't know he would play this hand either. I'm afraid the data has all been transferred. Let's go. It's only a few steps away. "
Having said this, he faced Luo Nan with a smile. "Junior Nan, this matter was an accident. It's been quite a toss. Why don't we make a deal and give me a chance? I'll treat you tonight. Consider it an apology to everyone, and also to express my stance to the seniors and juniors of Acumen College. "
Yue Zheng's words were spoken beautifully, especially after he had been wronged. The more he lowered his stance, the more it made the sharp-tongued Ruan Wenhui and the others unable to open their mouths.
Yue Zheng looked around him after he finished speaking. He made some calculations in his mind. Right now, he should have more or less snatched away Luo Nan's limelight as the host. He could continue to plow deeply and meticulously. Look, Senior Sister Tian. Wasn't she looking over with great astonishment?
Tian Si was truly astonished. She could guess Yue Zheng's thoughts, but she was astonished at how reckless this person was. Though she still didn't truly understand Luo Nan's extraordinary ability, it didn't hinder her from having a basic understanding.
If Luo Nan wanted someone like Yue Zheng to die silently, it would only take a mere thought for Yue Zheng to die!
Fear couldn't be avoided from Tian Si's heart when her thoughts reached this point. This fear came from her reverence towards a power that escaped the control of society's laws and principles. Luo Nan's current wooden performance was like a mask in her eyes. Perhaps the mask would be torn off in the next moment, revealing the face of the grim reaper.
She turned to look at Yue Zheng, and he just so happened to meet her gaze. He bowed from a distance with a smile. Yue Zheng thought that he was free and unrestrained, but in Tian Si's eyes, he was no different from a rotting corpse.
She shivered and subconsciously shifted a bit in Luo Nan's direction. Then, under everyone's gazes, she reached out to press down on Luo Nan's upper arm. She hesitated for a bit, then slid a bit to the side to gently grasp his arm.
"Junior …."
At this moment, the eyes of the people in the room bulged. Chaotic thoughts ran through their minds. Of course, Yue Zheng's expression instantly darkened.
Luo Nan was very baffled. He turned to look at Tian Si, feeling a bit uncomfortable with her suddenly closing the distance between them. He opened his mouth to ask why.
At this time, Papercut suddenly jumped out from the side and laughed, "Don't be confused. Don't be unreasonable. The data has already been transferred over. It's impossible to go back. Let's go experience the luxury room. I've never been there in my life!"
He extended his hand to drive them away, "Go go go. All of you, go. Don't forget your clothes, your personal belongings …. Hey, Nanster. Finish talking to Tian Si. Hurry up and go over."
Perhaps there were many people in the room who wanted to see what would happen next, but Papercut only needed to use a little trick to make this group of powerless boys and girls, including Yue Zheng, whose heart and face were very stiff, involuntarily lift their feet and leave.
The room became quiet in a few breaths of time.
"Senior, what's the matter?"
Luo Nan's reaction was a bit slow, but he wasn't an idiot. Even though he hadn't completely understood the ways of the world, from his perspective, Tian Si's heartbeat was chaotic right now. Fear was growing, and the hand holding his arm was very stiff. It seemed as if she had suffered a fright, and her mind was very tangled.
The reason for this seemed to be because of him?
Luo Nan was a lot more open-minded when dealing with someone like Tian Si, who only knew a little. He gradually adapted to the new distance between him and Tian Si. He laughed, "What are you afraid of?"
"I-I'm just worried that you'll get angry." Tian Si's voice was a bit hoarse. She had some problems controlling her breath. In the end, she was still nervous.
"Me?" Luo Nan was baffled.
"I'm a bit surprised as well."
Papercut stood at the door and suddenly spoke, startling Tian Si yet again. But when she saw this chubby youth give a simple and honest laugh, the smile lines on his chubby face appearing rather likable. Her heart actually calmed down quite a bit.
Xue Lei popped his head out from outside the door. He curled his lips, "That Yue fellow deserves a beating. He's always stepping on people. He's crazy!"
Papercut chuckled, "Nanster usually has a good temper. I know that, but I never expected you to be this calm and collected when you're in trouble. You're not simple."
"Huh?" Luo Nan was still a bit uncertain, "Are you talking about me?"
"Who else could it be besides you? That bro stepped on your face today, and he didn't let it go. I'm really worried that some string in your brain has snapped, and you'll just clean him up like a tank …. Motherf * cker. Speaking of which, do you know how hard it was to clean up the scene back then? That bro's entire body went limp. With just a bit of force, his skin and flesh would fall off. It was like he fell into a pressure cooker. "
Luo Nan had an innocent expression. He had been busy to death recently. How could he have the leisure to think about the matter of a dead person?
Tian Si finally reacted at this time. Luo Nan didn't seem to have any killing intent. She carefully confirmed, "You really aren't angry?"
Luo Nan was depressed, and he felt a bit wronged. "Did you guys really have to go so far as to kill him just because he said 'bibibibi'? What he did was all for naught, wasn't it? From start to finish, he didn't move a single person, including his sister …. And then I have to get angry? Brother Papercut, the few lives I've taken are all because they wanted to kill me first, and then they destroyed my mother's work. This doesn't count as indiscriminate killing, right? "
"Of course. Of course it doesn't count. Nanster, you're very magnanimous! "Papercut gave a thumbs up.
Tian Si felt it was quite odd when she heard this from the side. The words' a few lives' were seriously contrary to normal social logic. Yet Luo Nan and Papercut spoke of it so casually and naturally.
Xue Lei's expression didn't change at all.
In the end, they were different from normal people …. Tian Si's heartbeat was hard to calm down. She had no choice but to take deep breaths to adjust.
Luo Nan could feel it clearly, but he was a bit uncertain when he saw the situation. He turned his head and asked her, "Was there a problem with what I did just now?"
How was Tian Si supposed to respond? She had a clever and varied eloquence, but she was completely unable to display it at this moment. She really admired herself. Why did she think of having a private conversation with Luo Nan just now?
It was Papercut who helped her out of this predicament. "Nobody had that intention. Didn't they just praise you …. I just want to know. Are you sure that kid Yue didn't move a single person? His tricks are pretty good, especially when that kid Fan came over. I don't know what this group of boys and girls are thinking. Tian Si is knowledgeable, but others may not. "
Luo Nan especially liked this topic. He immediately laughed and pointed at his own head. "Sense it."
Papercut was just teasing him. He never thought that there would really be an answer. He was stunned for a time. "You can even sense this?"
"Of course. It's very clear."
It had to be said that Luo Nan didn't understand some of the ways of the world, but there were few in the entire Xia City who dared to say that they could beat him when it came to sensing people's energies, let alone in this room.
It was just as he said. Yue Zheng was like a banshee that kept hitting a tree in this matter. The living starry sky displayed that this bro's' gravity 'didn't form any effective fluctuations as a dim star. It had practically no real effect on everyone present at the time.
Yue Zheng's influence, regardless of the peaks and troughs, never touched upon the level that Luo Nan needed to pay attention to. He just silently melted into the depths of the vast sea of stars.
So Luo Nan's heart was truly without the slightest fluctuation.
He prepared to give Papercut an explanation, but Papercut had already raised his hands in surrender. "Forget it. I still need to help you deal with Cat Eyes in a bit, so I'll leave some brains for you. Let's go to the luxury room and take a look …. Hey, the one I smashed at the fudong store last time. It's also one, right? "
Luo Nan grunted. He had a stomach full of words, but he couldn't say them. His mood was a bit down.
When they rushed to the luxury room in area A, they saw Mo Peng's spittle flying from inside. He was talking about a certain person's magnificent feat at the fudong store.
"I've definitely never been to this place before, but Nanster should have seen it before."
"Huh? He doesn't like this kind of place, right? "Luo Biyao was very familiar with Mo Peng's role as a supporting character. The two matched up seamlessly.
Mo Peng laughed mischievously. "He doesn't like it, but he can't stand bad luck! Last time, the Frost River Reality on Fudong Main Street was attacked by terrorists. It was smashed to smithereens. After the incident, I looked at the police data. Nanster and the others retreated along a route that included the room in area A …. That seems to be the starting point? "
"Huh? Nanster was also a person who personally experienced it?" Tong Hui had heard Mo Han mention this before, but he didn't know much about it. He was quite curious.
"Of course! You don't say. Today's group took up a third of the place. Me, Sister Pomegranate, Senior Sister Tian, and Brother Qi were all people who personally experienced it, but none of us played as big as Nanster. He was in the last batch to come out …. Oh right, there's also Xue Lei. He was one of them. His dad was the special police captain in charge of protecting and protecting the mission! "
Mo Peng was dancing with joy as he spoke. Luo Nan and Xue Lei glanced at each other. They both kept their mouths shut and kept a low profile. Luo Nan wanted to deal with this group of people before talking to Papercut, Cat Eyes, and the others.
However, Yue Zheng stood in the middle of the large room with flowing colorful lights and top-notch sound and light effects. All he heard were words like 'attack' and 'smashed to smithereens'. His expression really didn't look too good.
A call connected to his wristband at this time.
