Meng Xiaozhi Sugar Core

With each press of Tang Xin's slender fingers on the keys, the grand piano emits a bright sound, with deep bass, clear midrange, and clear treble. In one word, it is transparent! Unlike wearing headphones, I can even feel the vibration of the air with my skin. Ah, this sound, I am almost drunk.

I was really shocked by the loud piano sound. Now I understand why some people like to listen to real performances. There is indeed a big difference.

But unfortunately, I don't understand music. I am too amateur. In my previous life, I only listened to pop songs. My music theory knowledge is only based on music lessons. I can't tell how good Tang Xin's performance is, or what flaws there are. If there is a bullet comment system, I would have been flooding the screen with comments like "666!" and so on.

There is something really fascinating about music. For example, I sat obediently in the corner of the classroom and listened to Tang Xin’s two-hour private lesson.

"Ms. Tang, it's great. There's nothing wrong with your playing this time!"

Teacher Wang praised Tang Xin, but she just smiled stiffly.

"Okay, you can go home now." Teacher Wang packed up the textbooks and ended the get out of class.

Tang Xin's stiff face finally relaxed a little, and she pulled me out of the classroom.

"My father forced me to learn it. Actually, I didn't want to learn it."

Tang Xin frowned, as if she was being bullied.

"Your father may want you to master more skills, which may serve as your asset to be better than others in the future." Although I know that her father doesn't do this very often, I have no way to help her and can only comfort her.

"You don't understand," the little girl shook her head, "He just uses me as a capital to show off. Whether it's studying or piano, hiring the best teacher, it's just that having an excellent daughter can make him more face among relatives and friends."

I was silent for a moment, not knowing how to comfort the person in front of me.

"Xiao Meng, when you go to high school and live in the school dormitory, will you have a lot of free time?" Tang Xin suddenly stopped and turned to ask me.

"Maybe." I didn't dare to look at her, because I knew that high school would only be more difficult, but I didn't have the heart to destroy the only hope in her heart.

"Yeah, Teacher Ye said so too. Then I can publish my novel online!" Tang Xin smiled sweetly.

Soon we walked to the side of the road next to the parked Wood, and the driver wearing white gloves quickly got off and opened the door for Tang Xin: "Get ready to go home, Miss. You still have extra lessons tonight."

The little girl responded softly and sighed quietly. She got in the car, rolled down the window, and waved at me: "Bye, Xiaomeng, see you at school."

"Bye-Bye!"

See you at school? I watched the car drive away slowly, feeling unhappy. My good grades were "cheating", but this girl was really forced to do it. I couldn't help but feel a little worried. This must be a time bomb in the future.

Ah, I remember, I was going to the Internet cafe. I looked at the time on my phone, it was almost four o'clock, I had to go online quickly to download some songs and novels, so as not to be bored to death during the summer vacation.

Come to the Internet cafe.

"Network administrator, turn on the computer."

I took the five yuan in my hand and handed it to the network administrator who was playing games.

"Shit, it's dead again." He was playing Chenghai 3c, which was one of the originators of the 3-way game in the early years, but it soon became unpopular. He was naturally very unhappy to be interrupted in the game, but opening cards was his job, so he had to suppress his temper and took out a magnetic card from the drawer and swiped it on the machine. Zizizizi, the dot-matrix printer printed out a temporary Internet ticket.

"Here." He raised his head and handed me the internet voucher.

But the moment he saw me, he was stunned and I didn't even take the paper from him.

I feel uncomfortable with this slightly aggressive look. I am not used to it and I don't like it. I am just a 13-year-old girl, okay? Brother, if you continue to do this, I will call the police.

"Hey, give it to me." I was afraid of tearing the thin paper, so I didn't dare to use force.

"Oh, oh okay, sorry." He came back to his senses, smiled awkwardly, and loosened his fingers.

"Who is that?" I cursed inwardly and left to find an empty seat.

Maybe it was because it was close to dinner time, so the Internet cafe was already a little sparsely populated.

"Xiao Meng, this way."

The boy who came with me at noon stood up and waved at me. I looked up and saw a large group of people who had not left yet.

It's nice to have acquaintances. The boy who stood up and called me was the one who started the topic in the group. His name was Ying Wei. He was a sturdy boy who looked much older than his actual age. The classmates around me seemed to be dressed more maturely because they were here to surf the Internet. I seemed to be the only silly one still wearing a school uniform.

"What game are you playing?" Maybe because I was a girl, Ying Wei asked. Almost all the classmates looked at me, as if expecting my answer.

"You guys play first, I'll download some songs." My answer seemed to disappoint them, and they turned around and started playing their own games.

I know what these little guys are thinking. They just expect me to tell them the name of a game that you happen to be good at, and then they say: Come on, I'll take you flying.

I'm Yasuo, so good! Genji 1v5! AWP every shot headshot! Anton Pegasus, believe it or not? The game hasn't come out yet? That's fine. I'll download the song first.

I looked at the 128MB storage space of my phone and burst into tears. I would like to thank someone who can send me the phone with 1TB storage space. I didn’t download many songs before the storage space was full. I had to delete some songs for some novels. I felt bad because I came here to enjoy the old songs.

I looked at the time, it was only a quarter past four, I could still play for a while, I just had to get home before five and cook. I looked at the desktop, a bunch of game icons, feeling a little confused.

Seeing that I had nothing to do, Ying Wei from the next door started talking: "Want to play KartRider? It's very popular now."

"Running around is fine."

Then, I registered an account, skipped all the new player introductions, and entered the game.

"I'll pull you in." He seemed very happy to see me enter the game, "What's your nickname?"

"Connor, the Dragon Maid."

"What kind of nickname is that?"

"Ah, nothing."

At this time, the game did not have any advanced matching system, only the primitive room system. When he entered his room, it showed a prop competition.

"Let's race."

“Compared to the first time playing, the props are more friendly.”

“I don’t really like games that rely on luck.”

"Ok."

He had no choice but to change back to the speed race, but then seemed to feel that something was wrong and changed all random maps to novice random maps.

[Get ready, get ready] Soon the room was full with eight people. Ying Wei's hands quickly typed a few lines on the keyboard. The moment everyone was ready, he pressed the start button. Well, his movements were pretty fast, but a little slower than Teacher Ma who quit the game.

We randomly arrived at the town highway. The corners of my mouth could not help but slightly lift up. Guys, let me show you what despair is!

"Eh!?? How can you rush forward at the beginning?"

After counting down to three, the green light came on and I was the first to rush out. Most of the players at this time were very new and couldn't even start and accelerate.

After a bend, the people disappeared, which is unprecedented and will never be repeated. The first generation of flatbed trucks cannot drift, but they can spray continuously. This picture still allows nitrous oxide acceleration throughout the whole process.

Two minutes and five seconds! Finished the race. It was an easy win.

[Hack now]

After the race, all kinds of doubts arose in the room because it was too fast and no one else could finish the race.

Ying Wei's face flushed, and it was unclear whether it was because he lost the game or because he was excited.

"You're so awesome! These bastards even said you were cheating. I'm going to scold them to death!" As he said this, he started dancing on the keyboard again.

At this moment, several uninvited guests suddenly appeared at the front desk.

"Fuck, Fahai!"

I don’t know which classmate cursed inwardly, but everyone raised their heads and looked over.

Everyone's heart skipped a beat, except mine of course.

Perhaps it was because I was too conspicuous in my school uniform, Fahai noticed the group here at a glance, and rushed over with a dark face.

When he walked in front of me, perhaps he saw who I was, he paused slightly.

"Li Xiaomeng?"

"Hello, Director Huang." I greeted him with a smile, without any change in my mood. Of course, there was no need for any change. What psychological changes would occur if you asked a group of people with a combined age of more than 30 years old to come to the Internet cafe?

He looked at the others again. They all lowered their heads and didn't dare to look at him directly. "Come out, everyone!"

He spoke viciously to the others and pulled me up and away.

There weren't many people outside the Internet cafe, at the entrance of the alley, but there was a group of us standing outside, and there was a person standing in front of us giving a speech, so naturally it attracted a lot of people to watch.

"Li Xiaomeng, tell me first, why did you come to the Internet cafe?" Director Huang looked at me, his tone filled with regret and confusion.

"I came here to download some music. I don't have a computer at home." I told the truth. There was no need to lie.

Director Huang nodded: "I didn't come here specifically to play games."

I shook my head: "I don't like games, I have no interest in games!"

Director Huang nodded with relief: "Although you are underage and shouldn't come to the Internet cafe, since you are just here to download MP3s, I won't blame you. But if you want to download something in the future, you can use the school's computer, don't come to the Internet cafe, understand?"

"Really? Thank you, Director Huang. I can save some money to buy books!" I opened my eyes wide, clenched my fists on my chest, acted like a little girl, and looked at Director Huang with gratitude.

Sorry guys, I'll sell it first. It's better for one person to leave than for the whole team to be wiped out.

Just like that, I was released early by Director Huang, but they would probably be claimed by their parents one by one today, and it looked like they would be scolded in the evening.

Wow, I'm such a green tea. Is this considered green tea? On the way home, I recalled how I looked just now and couldn't help but cover my face. It seemed like there were two little people quarreling on my head. Li Xiao, Li Xiao, so you are this kind of person. In order to escape punishment, you will use everything, even your gender advantage. This is the little man with white wings. Li Xiaomeng, you are Li Xiaomeng, there is nothing wrong with you. You are so beautiful now, you can play everyone around, you should make good use of your face. This is a black little man with a spiked tail.

On this day, I seemed to have lost something, something called integrity.

—

Things like moral integrity, you get used to it after losing them over and over again. I slowly began to accept the social advantages that gender, appearance, age, etc. bring me. For example, when I was buying vegetables this morning, the old lady gave me an extra handful of greens. She said it was New Year's Eve, so I should eat more good food.

Yes, today is the 30th New Year's Eve, which is the most important festival in every Chinese's heart. I got up early in the morning and went out to buy food. In addition to buying all kinds of ingredients for the New Year's Eve dinner, I also bought a lot of fireworks, so that I can set off fireworks with my aunt and sister when the bell rings. Of course, the most important thing is that I prepared New Year gifts for my aunt and sister, and gave them to them after dinner when we watched the Spring Festival Gala.

After a simple lunch, my aunt, sister and I started preparing food for the evening. Dumplings, rice balls, stewed pig's trotters, roasted bamboo shoots, braised pork, casserole chicken, pomfret, hairtail and yellow croaker, none of them could be missing. Although my aunt kept complaining that I bought too much and couldn't finish it, she happily helped me prepare the ingredients and stewed the pig's trotters on a low stove.

"Xiao Meng, you have grown up a lot in this year." Aunt was tired from busy work and sat aside to rest.

"People always have to grow up." I scooped a spoonful of pork ribs and bamboo shoots soup and tasted it to see if it was salty enough.

“I hope you can grow up slowly.”

"Grow up slowly, won't that tire your aunt to death? You won't be able to get married by then."

"You are the one who can't get married." My aunt replied unhappily.

"I'm also worried that my sister won't be able to get married." The younger sister who was washing vegetables suddenly spoke up.

"I don't want to get married." Marry? Like a boy? Is there such a possibility? Maybe, but I don't want to **.

"Then you will be a nun for the rest of your life," my aunt joked.

"Okay, you two are teaming up to bully me, right?"
