The Beautiful Time With You - Chapter 254
Chapter 254: You Are a Well (2)
“…”
Sitting on the sofa, Shi Yao listened to the exchange of song parodies between the two and fell into a daze.
So it’s actually possible to sing songs like this too?
Lu Benlai: “I’m just a small small small small bird, I want to fly higher, higher!”
Xia Shangzhou: “Night Shanghai, Night Shanghai, eh oh eh oh picking carrots…”
“Pfft!” Hearing up to this point, Shi Yao couldn’t hold back her laughter anymore.
Even Lin Jiayi, who seemed to be haughtily watching the lively duo singing in the front, found her lips edging upward uncontrollably.
Lu Benlai suddenly stopped at this point. He called over an attendant and got them to bring a few more microphones over. He then asked Lin Jiayi, Shi Yao, and Lin Jiage to join in the festival of song parodies as well.
Perhaps it was due to the joyous atmosphere that the two of them had built up, but Lin Jiayi didn’t turn down their request. Taking the microphone, she pondered for a few seconds before speaking up, “For you, I’m willing. For you, I’m willing. For you, I’m willing to trade your warmth for the chest of another.”
Lu Benlai raised his thumbs up and uttered a whole string of “666666” before continuing to sing, “Together we watch a meteor shower, land upon this earth we’re on. Watching as the railway slowly builds its way to my village.”
Xia Shangzhou: “A crying, crying, crying man isn’t a crime, soar through this materialistic world and spend our lives together forever.”
“…”
While the trio was busy singing all the song parodies that they knew of, Shi Yao laughed so much that her stomach was starting to hurt. In the end, she couldn’t resist picking up the microphone and joining them as well.
Shi Yao: “Give me a cup of love-forgetting water, half a lifetime of poverty.”
Lu Benlai: “Who’s playing the melody of Caesura of the Eastern Wind on the lute, let the entire world know that we’re the men of the Central Plains.”
Lin Jiayi: “Where will you be a thousand years later? Wipe your tears, ask not, at least we still have our dreams.”
Xia Shangzhou, “Lighting up the flames of my life, huo huo huo huo huo huo huo huo, the Huo Family’s fists are flexible and nimble.”
“…”
Time slowly ticked by, and the atmosphere of the group only grew more and more heated.
The entire room was filled with the melody of songs and loud peals of laughter.
Just as the clock approached twelve, a line of red words flickered on the screen of the KTV machine, reminding them that their time was almost up.
This time, it was Lu Benlai’s turn to sing. But instead of singing, these were the words he said into the microphone instead, “Before today comes to an end, why don’t we sing a line of lyrics to share our wishes? I’ll go first, okay?”
After saying those words, Lu Benlai yelled, “Let’s walk together on this journey through the mundane world, living our lives carefree and unrestrained![1]”
Xia Shangzhou also raised his microphone and shouted, “Let’s walk together on this journey through the mundane world, and live a life longer than the Zhongnan Mountain!”
Lin Jiayi pondered for two seconds before speaking the words in her heart too, “Let’s walk together on this journey through the mundane world, and love boldly and hate boldly!”
Seeing that the trio was now focusing their eyes on her, Shi Yao tilted her head to think for a moment before raising the microphone to her mouth, “Let’s walk together on this journey through the mundane world, and eat till we’re nice and chubby!”
“Good!” Lu Benlai, Xia Shangzhou, and Lin Jiayi cheered loudly. Then, Xia Shangzhou turned his gaze to Lin Jiage and asked, “Boss, why don’t you say something too?”
Lu Benlai: “That’s right, you should join in too!”
Lin Jiayi: “Hurry up and say your wish!”
Shi Yao turned to look at Lin Jiage and nodded vigorously, “Un un un!”
Seeing that even Shi Yao was requesting for it, Lin Jiage got to his feet and slowly walked to the table to pick up a microphone. Then, after two seconds of silence, he glanced at Shi Yao and said with a cool voice, “Let’s walk together on this journey through the mundane world, and eat buns every day!”
In response to those words, Lin Jiayi replied disdainfully, “Tsk. There’s nothing I hate more than eating buns!”
Heh, how is it any of my business whether you like buns or not? All that matters is that I like it… Ignoring Lin Jiayi, Lin Jiage put down his microphone and walked out of the room.
