Tutoring is free, which is a bit enviable. It has something to do with whether your family is rich or poor. It really makes people envious and jealous. They envy Shang Lin for having such good resources and hate themselves for not having them.

The food was served quickly, along with fruit wine. Since everyone was a minor, Fan Mingyu only symbolically ordered some alcoholic drinks.

Even so, Shang Lin still refused, saying, "I'm allergic to alcohol and can only drink water."

Fan Mingyu knew that Shang Lin didn't drink alcohol, and Yuntai Sect also prohibited alcohol, but he didn't expect that the other party could implement the ban on alcohol so thoroughly, even using the excuse of alcohol allergy.

Zhou Heng didn't believe it and bluntly said, "If you're so capable, why are you allergic to alcohol? It's not like I'm asking you to drink, so why are you using such a lame excuse?"

Fu Xinyu quickly chimed in, "That's right, that's right. We're all classmates. Although there were some unpleasant things before, they're all in the past now. Don't be so petty, okay?"

Shang Lin really wanted to say, "I really don't know what I would be like if I drank alcohol? It would be troublesome if I scared you all again."

But when he opened his mouth, he said with certainty, "Don't you know I'm in poor health? That's why I didn't even participate in the military training before the start of the semester. My alcohol allergy isn't a lame excuse; it's really true."

Zhou Heng and Fu Xinyu exchanged glances. They knew that Shang Lin hadn't participated in military training. After all, unless someone was extremely unwell, there was absolutely no way they would skip military training, not even girls, let alone boys.

But Shang Lin doesn't look unwell at all. Although she's a little thin and has fair skin, she's also very pretty. It's not like she's seriously ill and can't participate in military training, is it?

Fan Mingyu quickly said, "If you can't drink, then don't. We're not here to have a drinking contest. Let's eat. This restaurant is famous for its specialties."

Now Zhou Heng and Fu Xinyu stopped hesitating and both picked up their chopsticks.

But Fu Xinyu said, "It doesn't matter what we eat. Everyone's eating and drinking well these days, especially during the New Year. But do you want to see the new suspenseful horror movie that's been released recently?"

Fan Mingyu's eyes lit up immediately. "Really? Is it still available today? Let's go see it together after we finish eating!"

Fu Xinyu immediately picked up his phone. "I'll check it now."

Zhou Heng hurriedly said, "I'm not going. After watching it, I felt uncomfortable everywhere."

"Is he a man?" Fan Mingyu asked, then turned to Shang Lin, "What about you? You're not too scared to look either, are you?"

Shang Lin wanted to say, "I've seen plenty of real-life versions, but I haven't seen any non-real-life versions yet."

He said, "What's there to be afraid of? Just don't stay up too late. I'm not in good health and can't stay up all night."

Although Shang Lin's body has been reshaped, how long has the reshaping process taken? It has to be done slowly. After all, the body of an ordinary human is very fragile, and he has to cherish it. Otherwise, how will he have the chance to find another one?

Fu Xinyu laughed and said, "Horror movies are for midnight screenings. Who watches horror movies during the day? The atmosphere just doesn't feel right."

Shang Lin, "..."

Is this kid a little too brave? He needs atmosphere even for a horror movie, it's not like he's talking about love.

The next second, Fan Mingyu actually chimed in, "That's right, that's right, otherwise what's the point of watching?"

"You two have gone too far!" Zhou Heng was a little exasperated. "Even eating can't shut you up."

At that moment, Shang Lin suddenly thought of a few phrases: "A newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger," "Ignorance is bliss," and "A young man is full of courage."

Fu Xinyu laughed and said, "Zhou Heng, are you scared?"

"Get lost, you're the one who's scared, your whole family is scared." Zhou Heng's expression was not good. "Put down your phone and eat quickly."

"Okay, okay." Fu Xinyu wasn't annoyed at all, and even put down his phone cooperatively. "I booked three tickets, the earliest showing at 9:30 pm. After we eat, we'll go to karaoke, and then head straight to the movie theater. Little Zhou, you can go straight home now."

Shang Lin smiled helplessly. Boys this age are really full of energy. However, it was 9:30 pm, which was still a good time. Unless absolutely necessary, he didn't want to stay up late at all.

During the meal, Fan Mingyu and his two friends started by talking about their winter vacation homework, then moved on to games, novels, horror movies, and even their teachers, discussing which teacher was good at lecturing and which teacher made everyone drowsy.

Finally, they talked about the female classmates, such as who was pretty, who was tall and had long legs, and their opinions on the class's most beautiful and handsome students...

Shang Lin listened silently to the side, and as he listened, he felt deeply that there was an insurmountable gap between him and these boys, and they really had absolutely nothing in common!

Especially when it comes to girls, he hasn't even gotten to know all the girls in his class yet, let alone which ones are pretty or which ones are tall and have long legs. As for the class beauty and the class hunk, he knows absolutely nothing about them!

Fan Mingyu gently tapped Shang Lin's water glass against his fruit wine glass. "What's the meaning of you not eating or drinking, and looking like you're daydreaming? Is the food not to your liking?"

Shang Lin pointed to the food scraps in front of him, "Look, none of the three of you have eaten as much as I have."

There was supposed to be a waiter to help clear the table, but Fan Mingyu found it troublesome and didn't ask anyone to come. So when he looked over, he saw it very clearly and looked at Shang Lin with some surprise, "You ate all of this?!"

Shang Lin nodded. "This can be faked?"

Fan Mingyu, “…”

Silently, she gave Shang Lin a thumbs up.

Zhou Heng asked Shang Lin, "Is this what you meant by 'not feeling well'?"

Shang Lin answered quite frankly, "Yes, that's why I need to eat more, since food supplements are always better than medicine."

Fu Xinyu hurriedly asked, "Are you full? We can order more if you're not full."

"I'm full, and I'm just listening to your conversation."

Fan Mingyu immediately put down his chopsticks. "Have you finished eating? Let's go sing karaoke after we finish."

Shang Lin initially wanted to refuse, but then he thought that he had finally gotten to be a normal high school student for once, so he decided to stay and play with them tonight. He figured he could bring his disciples out to play in the future, so they wouldn't have nothing else to do besides make money.

The karaoke place was large and noisy, but this noise was only for Shang Lin, who had exceptional senses. After all, each private room was well soundproofed. Once the door was closed, even if an ordinary person pressed their face against the door, they wouldn't be able to hear anything inside.

Shang Lin subconsciously wanted to shut down his senses to avoid getting a headache from all the noise, but if he shut down his senses, he wouldn't be able to communicate with his classmates, so he had no choice but to give up. Anyway, it was only an hour, so he could just bear with it.

But……
