Chapter One? What's going on?
Chapter One? What's going on?
Chapter One? What's going on?
What happened?
Where is this?
What's the current situation?
With a blank expression, he carefully looked around at the unfamiliar environment.
In the foreground are rows of unfamiliar faces.
Although they wore smiling faces, most of them were gloating.
The way he looked at me was filled with an unspeakable mockery.
It blends in with the surrounding lavish decor, like a mural, yet separate from it, forming two distinct worlds.
How did he get here? As he frantically tried to recall his lost memories.
A sharp pain in his head interrupted his train of thought.
The sudden pain made him very irritable.
He couldn't help but reach out and pat his head, using external force to neutralize the sharp pain emanating from within.
My mind gradually cleared as I patted myself.
My last memory flashed through my mind. Could it be that there was something wrong with the glass of liquor I drank?
He shouldn't have been taken at a dinner table. If it was a scheme, it should have been done at a hotel or some more discreet setting, not at a banquet.
Judging from the environment, this must be a high-end banquet; the brightly lit "Happy Birthday" sign confirms that this is a birthday party.
The upscale decor, luxurious furnishings, and sophisticated attire all indicate that this banquet is no ordinary event.
He looked up, peering through the crowd at the magnificent stage in the center.
On the slightly elevated stage stood a handsome young man.
She looked to be seventeen or eighteen years old, exquisite, elegant, and proud.
That person must be the main character of this banquet.
Looking down at myself again, I saw a cheap white long-sleeved shirt, faded jeans, and a pair of cheap sneakers that barely qualify as brand names.
Hehehe.
What blatantly different worlds!
The total price of all his clothes doesn't exceed two hundred.
I doubt they could even afford one of that young master's buttons.
It doesn't look like someone who could attend such a high-class banquet.
Furthermore, judging from such casual attire, he couldn't possibly be a waiter.
What an unexpected person!
Such an incongruity.
Given the current unclear situation, the wisest choice is to leave as soon as possible.
Moreover, the amused expressions on the other people's faces made him vaguely uneasy.
So many people were watching the spectacle, yet no one came to their rescue.
This only proves...
He's no longer a person, he's just a source of amusement.
The fun of this banquet.
Rich people always have some twisted games.
Sometimes, when you get tired of the usual fun, you need some unconventional fun.
He's clearly the unconventional source of amusement.
Seeing that no one had moved for a long time, someone finally became impatient and urged them on.
"What are you still daydreaming about? Young Master Xia is calling you!"
He sat on the ground, turned around, and glanced at the person who had spoken.
Ouch, what a huge poisonous mushroom!
The person was wearing an expensive haute couture gown with a white and purple gradient color scheme.
Pair it with a red floral tie.
Coupled with her brightly colored hair and her black lips, which were as dark as if she had eaten countless dead children.
He was like a poisonous mushroom sprouting from the ground after the rain.
Such an adorable outfit is simply irresistible.
She couldn't help but curl the corners of her lips into a smile.
If it weren't for the inappropriate occasion and unclear situation, everyone would want to laugh out loud to praise his unconventional style of dress.
Their eyes met, and the poisonous mushroom was clearly taken aback for a moment before understanding the smile in those eyes.
Anger creased his brow.
"What are you looking at, you country bumpkin?!"
After saying that, she arrogantly turned her head away and gave a cold snort to express her disdain.
Hehe, I can tell, this guy is a tsundere!
"come over!"
The boy waiting on the stage spoke in a cold and impatient tone.
Impatient with wasting so much time.
A hint of anger flashed in his eyes; clearly, he was referring to the person sitting on the ground.
Everyone else looked over too, and they knew what was going on in their minds without even looking.
Oh dear, when you're under someone's roof, you have no choice but to bow your head.
He's the kind of person who's easygoing and knows how to adapt to changing circumstances.
He scrambled to his feet and rushed onto the stage.
The young master clearly hadn't expected this person to be so unrestrained; instead of using the steps, he jumped up directly.
His rudeness caused him to furrow his brow in disgust, and his handsome face showed signs of aversion.
Great, this godforsaken place is so tempting, it makes your hands itch with excitement.
The young master clearly sensed the eagerness of the person in front of him and gave him a warning look, telling him to behave himself.
And then he never gave the person in front of him another glance.
With a polite and gentle smile, the young master lowered his head, leaned closer to the microphone, and spoke politely.
A deep, pleasant voice filled the banquet hall.
"Welcome everyone to my birthday party. Now, Zhou Ran and I will play a piece for you to liven things up."
After he finished speaking, amidst applause, the young master looked at Zhou Ran.
Oh, so my name is Zhou Ran? What an ordinary name, like a cannon fodder male character in a novel.
"I won't."
Zhou Ran shrugged nonchalantly. How could a little karaomi like him possibly have the skill of playing the piano, which is a character trait often associated with male protagonists?
"No, I'll just sit to the side."
The young master lowered his voice and gave instructions in a tone that only the two of them could hear.
Zhou Ran gave an OK sign and casually sat down in front of the piano.
This piano is nice! It looks like one of those super expensive, high-end models.
Unfortunately, I didn't meet the right person today; the treasure has been left to gather dust.
Just as Zhou Ran was lost in thought...
The young master had already accepted the expensive violin handed to him by the servant.
He rested the violin on his shoulder, his face, beginning to show its angularity, pressed against the instrument.
As the slender hand moved, music began.
The young master closed his eyes, playing the tune with a look of deep absorption and seriousness.
Wow, not bad!
Paganini's Violin Concerto No. 1 in D major.
This young master is quite something!
Zhou Ran sat on the piano bench, too lazy to even open the lid.
He rested his chin on his hand, watching the young master's focused performance.
Unfortunately, it has a bit too much of a craftsman's touch; despite practicing a lot, I don't necessarily like it that much.
It's true that being a child from a wealthy family isn't easy.
There are too many miscellaneous things to learn.
Zhou Ren stared intently at me.
The message is quite clear.
How can this person have the nerve to just listen?
Are we just going to watch?
If it were me, I would be utterly humiliated.
How dare you do nothing?
Zhou Ran calmly accepted the judgment of the gazes; it was the young master's birthday, and a nobody like him shouldn't cause trouble.
If you play poorly, you'll offend people.
Playing it well will offend more people.
He might as well play dumb; it's just a few insults, he can take it.
Being called a coward is better than suffering misery afterward over a trivial matter.
He glanced around and keenly noticed several unfriendly gazes.
If my performance as a monkey doesn't satisfy the guests, someone will definitely come to confront me soon.
It's really troublesome to teach a small fry like me a lesson.
Zhou Ran smiled and stretched her arms and legs.
You need to warm up before exercising so you can move your arms and legs freely.
When the song ended, I led the applause, then quickly stepped off the stage, making sure to leave first.
Where are you going?
"Is this a place you can come and go as you please?"
The people surrounding them were mostly teenagers, and their faces were filled with anger.
His angry gaze was fixed on Zhou Ran, the troublemaker, and he wished he could kill him.
"You come here to cause trouble, and you think you can just walk away so easily? What do you think this place is?"
The poisonous mushrooms, mixed in with the crowd, were making an especially loud noise.
Zhou Ran licked her back molars with the tip of her tongue, but instead of finding the gap in the back molars, she licked a perfectly intact tooth, and was stunned for a moment.
But this wasn't the time to be spacing out, as the encirclement was getting smaller and smaller.
Zhou Ran was irritable.
He's innocent too; who knows where this is?
Why is he here again?
He drank a glass of wine that the boss handed him.
That's all I know. Who knows how he got here?
He was even fed dogs by a group of immature teenagers.
If he gets angry, who should he take it out on?
As they approached menacingly, he looked down and saw his thin, slender arms, devoid of muscle and even a pound of flesh.
He was calculating the odds of winning against these people.
Alas, reality tells Zhou Ran that no matter which option she chooses, she will basically only be able to take the beating.
There is no turning back in the face of the current situation.
Dry!
Only a coward wouldn't dare to stand up!
Give it a try; you might be able to achieve great results with a small investment.
I rolled up my long sleeves, ready for a one-sided, life-or-death struggle.
He lost and was covered in wounds.
He won, but was covered in injuries, and his opponent was also covered in injuries.
No matter how you look at it, I'm the one who came out ahead.
I caught a glimpse of the gauze still wrapped around my wrist, and blood was seeping through it from some movement.
Oh dear, I'm injured! I didn't even feel it!
I think I felt a slight stinging sensation just now, probably when I was resting my chin on my hand.
This wound looks more like it was caused by self-harm.
He seems to be having a particularly miserable time!
Yes, just now, he was completely certain that this guy named Zhou Ran was indeed Zhou Ran.
It definitely wasn't me.
He would never do something so cowardly in his life.
I'll eat anything, I'll never lose out!
The injuries on his body could only be medals he earned in fights; it's impossible that he would have cowardly committed suicide by cutting his wrists.
This Zhou Ran is such a coward. She's not even afraid of self-harm, but she's afraid of getting back at him?
If someone bullies you, bully them back.
If I don't repay it a hundredfold, it's because I'm kind.
Zhou Ran's eyes gleamed with excitement.
interesting,
This is getting more and more interesting!
