With nothing much to do that evening, Lin Anran set up a karaoke system in the room.
When I have nothing to do, I practice my singing.
One song after another was sung. Lin Anran's sweet voice was quite pleasant to listen to, and Lin's parents were not to be outdone, with Lin Yu's wailing and howling interspersed among them.
Finally, their doorbell rang.
Lin Anran turned off the music, and the whole room suddenly became quiet.
Lin's mother asked in confusion, "Did you hear anything just now?"
Lin Yu nodded: "I think I vaguely heard the doorbell ring."
Ding-dong—Ding-dong—
The doorbell rang again!
The group exchanged glances, their eyes filled with confusion. Why were they looking for them so late at night instead of sleeping?
The family arrived at the door, with Lin's father standing at the front. He opened the door, and a red-haired boy with big teeth came into view, carrying two bags in his hands. A refined-looking man stood next to him.
"How can I help you?"
Red Hair grinned and introduced, "Hello, we live next door. My name is Xie Nan, and this is my brother, Xie Bei. We saw you moved in this afternoon and thought we'd come and pay a visit."
Lin's mother thought to herself, "So these are the two idiots who were spying on them. They look pretty good, but how come they're both so lewd?"
"Please don't misunderstand, we saw this by chance and just wanted to say hello. You can come to us if you need anything in the future. So, may we come in and have a seat now?"
Red Hair didn't mind the awkward situation at all; he took the initiative to invite him in for a seat.
Lin Anran: He doesn't seem very bright, so he shouldn't be in too much danger. But we should be careful of the man next to him.
They had just arrived at the base and didn't intend to make enemies with everyone.
Lin Anran: "Come in first!"
Upon entering the villa, Xie Nan boldly began to look around the house. "Wow! This place is quite clean!"
After everyone sat down, Lin Yu went to the kitchen and brought out a bottle of tea.
Xie Bei looked at the tea leaves in the cup with surprise in his eyes. There weren't many people who could drink tea in the apocalypse, yet they were actually serving it to guests.
This group of people is not simple!
Lin Anran broke the silence by speaking: "My name is Lin Anran. This is my dad, my mom, and my brother Lin Yu. This is... my boyfriend Jiang Qinian."
Boyfriend! Boyfriend! Boyfriend!
Jiang Qinian's mind was filled with thoughts of her boyfriend. Having watched so many TV dramas lately, he certainly knew what a boyfriend meant.
Boyfriend is future husband —
The future son-in-law of the Lin family—
Lin Yu's brother-in-law—
The male owner of Dahei and Tuantuan—
......
Lin Anran didn't notice the change in the people around her. She continued, "We did just arrive at the base today, and we haven't settled in yet. We'll just have some tea to tide us over."
Xie Bei: Good tea!
Xie Nan placed the things he brought on the table. "These are just a small token of my brother's and my brother's appreciation. We'll be neighbors from now on, so let's help each other out."
"Oh, right! Did you fill out the form? Or rather, did you join the team?"
Lin's father asked in confusion, "What do you mean?"
Xie Bei adjusted his glasses and spoke his first words of the night, “After entering the base, someone will approach you and ask you to fill out a form to complete your information. After you finish filling out the form, they will invite you to join the superhuman team based on the actual situation.”
Lin Yu asked curiously, "Is joining mandatory?"
Xie Bei: "Not necessarily, you can form your own team!"
Xie Nan suddenly exclaimed excitedly, "Why don't you join our team? That way they won't make things difficult for you!"
Lin's mother: What a frivolous fool.
Lin Anran: "Thank you, we will consider it."
Living in a villa area, having their own squad, and not being afraid to confront the base—these two people are indeed extraordinary. She doesn't know whether they are friend or foe, and she can't take the risk.
"Emmm...how about we sing a song instead!" To liven things up, Lin Yu weakly raised his hand. It was too embarrassing, so he decided to sing a song for everyone.
Lin's father: "No..."
Xie Nan immediately replied, "I'll go with you!"
"Quickly use the nunchucks, hmph ha hey! Quickly use the nunchucks, hmph ha hey! Martial artists, remember: the benevolent are invincible!..."
Everyone: ......
Lin Anran: I apologize to everyone for letting him in before.
Lin's father: You brat, don't give me a reason to beat you up.
Lin's mother: My skin is all wrinkled.
Jiang Qinian: It's...it sounds awful, I need to cover Ranran's ears.
Xie Bei: There's actually another person in the world besides his brother who sings so badly.
After the song ended, Lin Yu and Xie Nan, as if they had found kindred spirits, wanted to sing another song.
Lin Anran interrupted at the right moment, "It's getting late. Everyone's had a long day, so let's all get some rest. We can talk about it tomorrow!"
Lin's mother immediately chimed in, "Your skin hasn't been looking good lately, I'm going to get my beauty sleep. Don't make any noise, or your dad will beat you up."
Lin's father, standing nearby, patted his muscles and gave Lin Yu a threatening glare.
Lin Yu nodded regretfully, patted Xie Nan on the back, and said, "Dude, let's make it another time!"
"Okay! It's a deal, we'll meet up again later, bro, let's go!"
After the two left, Lin Anran didn't plan to continue working, as it was already very late.
She'd talk about it tomorrow; all she wanted now was a good night's sleep.
After taking a bath in the space, it was almost 1 a.m.
Lin Anran dried her hair and said to Jiang Qinian with a serious expression, "This villa is spacious, so you don't have to squeeze into the same room as me anymore. You can just sit quietly in the living room and watch the tablet, okay?"
Upon hearing that they would have to sleep in separate rooms, Jiang Qinian became unhappy. His eyes reddened, and his gaze held a hint of desolation. "No...no good."
"Be good! You have to behave, or no one will like you!"
"Ranran...likes...me, I...will be obedient!"
Watching Lin Anran resolutely go upstairs, he stood there quietly, staring intently at the figure until it disappeared, remaining motionless.
He was abandoned; she didn't want him anymore!
Stubborn tears slid down her cheeks.
Lin Yu: That's so pitiful. Tomorrow he's going to teach his brother-in-law how to download an anti-fraud app.
Lin's Mom: Waaaaah, the angst is starting, the angst is starting!
Lin's father: That's how it should be, my darling daughter is amazing!
Each with their own thoughts, the group was exhausted and fell asleep the moment they lay down on the bed.
After the last light in the villa was turned off, the lights next door gradually went out. To be honest, they really wanted to kill someone and rob them right now; the singing was just too awful.
"Boss, when are we going to make our move? It's too much of a torture to keep going like this every day!"
"Xu An, go and investigate tomorrow to see if any of them have superpowers!"
"Yes, boss!"
