They don't actually think I like them, do they?

When Lin Han's gentle voice came from the speakers,

Mangzi was clearly taken aback for a moment.

It doesn't seem so bad...?

-

"This sweetness made me start to believe in fate."

Thank you, gravity, for letting me meet you~

A beautiful and adorable woman who makes me blush~

A gentle and lovely woman who makes my heart ache.

 …”

As the chorus began, all the guests went from being completely bewildered to being even more bewildered!

What a strange, yet so comfortable feeling!

It's hard for people to describe how they feel right now.

People are used to hearing loud, uplifting songs that are mostly about war, blessings, dreams, and inspiration, and they are all about passion and positive energy.

Love songs have always been considered the least respectable genre. Even if you happen to hear them while surfing the internet, you usually just scoff at them.

However, this song, "Lovely Woman"...

It has a comforting feel to it.

Due to their upbringing and ingrained aesthetic preferences, coupled with the fact that many people haven't heard this type of song much, many customers still can't accept it so quickly.

Not to mention singing and dancing along, it just feels a bit embarrassing no matter how you look at it.

However, at this moment, Mangzi stepped forward.

The girl jumped onto the stage, her eyes shining.

Her eyes lit up the moment she heard the chorus.

This is fucking amazing!!

It's so sweet and addictive, you just can't stop eating it!

When the second chorus came, Mangzi picked up the microphone and sang along.

"A beautiful woman who makes me blush~ A gentle woman who makes my heart ache~"

When the atmosphere was stirred up, the people in the bar finally realized their feelings and started moving.

A musical massacre belonging to Lin Han has begun!

P.S.: Happy Mid-Autumn Festival everyone!

004. Cheers Challenge

A large group of guests.

Behind them was a dazzling display of neon lights. Their hearts burned with the same fervor as the fireworks. Although the song had already touched their souls, their long-standing upbringing prevented them from truly embracing it.

They stood on the dance floor, their expressions calm, quiet, and blank, as if they had never moved.

However:

When the girl group idol Mangzi started singing.

看!

Once he jumped up, he became fierce, lost all passion, and reckless!

A hundred or so brightly dressed guests, like a hundred or so stones repeatedly struck by a strong earthquake, dance wildly before you. Like a sudden rainstorm, their drumbeats are rapid; like a whirlwind, their tassels are fluttering; like frogs jumping wildly, their steps are leaping; like sparks, their pupils are flashing; like fighting tigers, their postures are strong and vigorous.

Inside the bar, what a magnificent, unrestrained, and passionate dance unfolded!

This song, "Lovely Woman," instantly warmed the cold air, made the tranquil sunlight burst forth, and enlivened the weary world.

.......

Growing up surrounded by inspirational songs and deeply positive energy, we've never heard such a sweet and beautiful love song before!

Now, suddenly this song "Lovely Woman" comes out, and everyone is like they've discovered a new continent; they're instantly hooked!

In the first half of the song, everyone was still uneasy, like when you hear a fart, regardless of whether it actually smells bad, the moment you hear it, you always feel like you really smelled something foul. It was the same with this song; everyone felt there was an odd smell, but they couldn't quite put their finger on it.

But by the second half of the song, everyone in the bar was singing along.

"A beautiful woman who makes me blush~ A gentle woman who makes my heart ache~"

Many men even shed tears while singing.

They, who had always looked down on love songs, never imagined that they would be touched by one.

These days, they have pockets full of money, surrounded by women who are both slutty and provocative, posting suggestive photos on social media. It seems they have no shortage of women or love, doesn't it?

However, in their youth, they all had a lovely girl they could never have.

She has a sweet smile and will tilt her head to ask you which hair clip looks better.

One day you'll have to make peace with all those memories, memories that contain both her and you, her youth and your prime. That person lives on forever in time; you can't pull her out, and you can't go back. So be it. Let her remain there quietly. She won't grow fat, won't age, won't wear a business suit, won't carry the scent of everyday life. She'll always be young, always beautiful, standing in your memories in a vibrant dress, smiling radiantly at you.

Lin Han captivated everyone present with just one song.

When the music ended, everyone remained immersed in it, unable to leave.

Soon, a guest raised his hand and shouted.

"do it again!"

"Yes, I haven't heard enough!"

The DJ didn't hesitate and played it again.

The song was too short; it ended quickly.

This time, someone suddenly said:

"Jujube Jam, come up on stage and sing a song!"

That one sentence instantly ignited the entire bar.

"Yeah, the original singer is right here, how can we not listen to it?"

Please! I really love this song so much!

"Quick, quick, sing one! Let's turn this bar into a personal concert by Marmalade!"

"From now on, this place will be called Marmalade Square."

Soon, everyone started to cheer:

Sing one! Sing one!

Lin Han felt embarrassed, but the next second, Mangzi was already in front of him, shoved the microphone into his hand, and gave him a playful smile.

This feeling of being the center of attention made Lin Han, who prefers to keep a low profile, somewhat uncomfortable.

Lin Han sighed. It was his own choice to play the song.

Lin Han stopped refusing and strode onto the stage.

The female DJ winked at the boy and immediately started playing the accompaniment.

As Lin Han started singing, he was surprised to find that the Collapse Index had risen dramatically!

For every line sung, the backstage revenue was [+43], [+26], [+39]...

In addition, thanks to the double experience card and the large stage, Lin Han's [Vocal Skill Card] was also gaining experience points like crazy!

After Lin Han finished singing, both his [Bel Canto Skill Card] and [Music Skill Card] had broken through to the intermediate level, and all his attributes had made a qualitative leap!

Lin Han made a fortune from this.

The audience also joined in Lin Han's personal performance, bringing the atmosphere to a new climax.

......

After Lin Han stepped down from the stage, Mangzi brought over a pitcher of wine, patted Lin Han on the back, and said excitedly:

"Wow, Lin Han, I didn't expect you to be so good! My singing isn't even as good as yours!"

"No, no." Lin Han smiled and took the wine glass full of wine from Mangzi's hand.

"My biggest takeaway today is meeting you as a friend!"

Upon hearing Mangzi's words, Lin Han was suddenly taken aback.

friend?

Mangzi's expression suddenly became subtle. Just moments ago, she had been looking bold and magnanimous, but now she was cautiously looking at Lin Han.

"Could it be... that you're not willing to be friends with me?"

"Huh???" Lin Han was even more confused.

"I understand. Actually, I understand how you feel. You've given so much for me, but you've never received any feedback. I'm sure you're frustrated too, constantly trying to figure out what I'm thinking. Don't worry, I'll tell you tonight..."

"Wait, wait a minute, Miss Mangzi, I think you may have misunderstood something."

Lin Han raised his hand in alarm, but Mangzi stopped him with his hand.

"Don't say anything, I understand."

After Mangzi finished speaking, his expression suddenly turned somewhat sly.

"Did you bring enough money tonight? This wine isn't cheap."

"Didn't you invite me?" Lin Han almost spat out the wine in his mouth.

“I never said that,” Mangzi said seriously.

Damn, did I run into a bar scammer?!

Lin Han got up to get some fluid.

Mangzi quickly pulled Lin Han back and pointed to the beer on the table.

"Okay, this is my favorite beer. It has a chocolate flavor, but it's very strong and gets you drunk very easily. One bottle and you're intoxicated, three and you're passed out."

"If you drink this with me, I'll pay one-tenth of the cost for each bottle. Once we've drunk ten bottles, I'll pay for everything."

"Ok."

"So, how many bottles do you want to drink?" Mangzi asked with a smile.

As soon as Mangzi finished speaking, the system interface unfolded in front of Lin Han.

[A choice has been detected for the host. Three options are now provided for the host to choose from.]

Option 1: 1 bottle. Completion reward: Random beginner item.

Option 2: 3 bottles. Completion reward: Random beginner item.

Option 3: 5 bottles. Completion reward: Random beginner item.

Option 4: 10 bottles. Completion reward: Random beginner item.

005. She's still quite cute when she's quiet.

[This task has started its reward stacking mode. For each level of reward completed, the host will receive all the rewards from the previous level.]

Lin Han understood. When the difficulty of the options clearly increases in stages, such cumulative rewards seem to be more attractive to him in choosing the higher-level options.

The key system rewards aren't the most important thing; the most important thing is paying the bill!

For someone as frugal as Lin Han to pay the full price for such expensive wine would be a death sentence for him.

Even without the system reward, Lin Han would not hesitate to choose the fourth option: avoid spending money if possible!

"Ten bottles."

"Ten...ten bottles???"

Mangzi looked at Lin Han in surprise, incredulous.

"This liquor is really strong, are you serious?"

"really."
