My Amazing WeChat is Connected to the Three Realms - Chapter 42
Lin Hai’s suggestion was met with immediate enthusiasm.
“Come on, let’s finish this!”
After downing a glass of wine, everyone started eating and chatting about some amusing incidents that had happened at school.
In the blink of an eye, each person had already consumed two or three bottles.
“Lin Hai, I never expected you to be such a hidden talent! Not only did you win the title of ‘King of Songs,’ but you also managed to win over a beauty because of it,” Wang Hai said, patting Lin Hai’s shoulder and glancing at Liu Xinyue, who was sitting beside him.
Liu Xinyue, who had also had a bit to drink, blushed even more as she listened.
“Hey, you can sing too?” Liu Xinqing asked curiously.
“You didn’t know?” Wang Peng immediately got excited and proceeded to embellish the story of Lin Hai’s past achievements, recounting it in front of everyone.
“Really? Is that true?” Liu Xinqing was completely stunned.
“Don’t believe me? Then let Lin Hai sing for us right now. What do you all think?”
“Sure, let’s hear it!”
“King of Songs, give us a performance!”
Everyone started egging him on, and the girls in the room also blushed, their eyes slightly dazed as they looked at Lin Hai.
“Lin Hai, hurry up, everyone’s waiting,” Wang Peng urged when Lin Hai didn’t move for a while.
“Alright, I’ll embarrass myself then.”
Fueled by the alcohol, Lin Hai stood up.
“Brothers, we’ve lived together for three years. During these three years, we’ve had our joys and our conflicts, but more than anything, we’ve helped each other out. Especially me, Lin Hai. My family’s situation is probably the worst among us, and you guys have helped me a lot. Today, I want to take this opportunity to thank all of you. This song, ‘My Good Brothers,’ is dedicated to all the members of Room 302.”
“Alright!” Liu Liang led the applause, while Wang Peng ran over to the karaoke machine in the corner of the room and queued up the music.
“In your glorious moments, let me sing a song for you, my good brother. If you’re feeling down, just tell me…”
As soon as Lin Hai started singing, everyone quieted down, fully immersed in the heartfelt performance.
“We’ll walk the road ahead together, even if we have to cross rivers. What’s a little hardship? When you need me, I’ll be there to get through it with you. My good brother, if you’re feeling down, just tell me. Life is full of ups and downs, but we still have to live strong. Whether we cry or laugh, at least you still have me…”
By the time the song reached its climax, several of the guys were visibly moved and stood up to sing along.
“The bond between friends is higher than the sky and vaster than the earth. Those years, we’ll definitely remember them. The bond between friends is the greatest treasure of our lives. It’s like a glass of wine, like an old song…”
Perhaps it was the emotions in the song, or maybe it was the alcohol, but the men ended up hugging each other tightly.
The girls watched quietly, deeply moved by the camaraderie expressed in the song.
“Fatty, do you remember when I lost my wallet right after starting freshman year? I mooched off you for a whole month, and when I tried to pay you back, you refused and even scolded me!”
“Liu Liang, you jerk! That winter break during sophomore year, you told me to take some health supplements home for my dad, saying they were just extras from your grandpa’s place. But I saw you buying them fresh from the store!”
“Zhao Hui, you stingy bastard! You usually pinch every penny, but when I got sick last year, you really splurged. You spent 200 yuan on good food for me and ended up eating dry buns for a month yourself!”
…
Lin Hai went on, recounting all the ways his brothers had helped him over the years. The memories of their three years together kept resurfacing, touching everyone deeply.
“So, now I, Lin Hai, have a bit of money. I can drive a Land Rover and eat at fancy restaurants. But you all need to remember this!” Lin Hai pointed at each of his brothers.
“You are my brothers. You were the ones who helped me selflessly when I was poor. So now that I’ve made it, don’t hold back with me. Don’t be formal or distant!”
“I, Lin Hai, am not someone who forgets where I came from. And more importantly, I don’t want money, status, or position to come between us and ruin the brotherhood we’ve built!”
“Well said!”
“Damn, I was worried that now that Lin Hai’s rich, he might look down on us. I was such an idiot!”
“No matter rich or poor, we’ll always be brothers!”
“Waiter, bring us more wine!”
They were all having such a good time that they ended up drinking way too much.
It wasn’t until 11 PM that they finally left, each supported by their girlfriends.
Wang Peng, being single, was about to get into Lin Hai’s car when Liu Liang pulled him away.
“Xinyue, can you drive?” Lin Hai, having drunk quite a bit, was clearly in no state to drive.
“No,” Liu Xinyue shook her head. “And I’ve been drinking too.”
“Then what should we do? Should we call a designated driver?”
“Hey!” Liu Xinqing, standing nearby, put her hands on her hips and glared at Lin Hai.
“What’s up, little sister-in-law?”
“Hmph, you’re so inconsiderate! I’m standing right here, and you didn’t even think to ask if I can drive?”
“You?” Lin Hai chuckled. “Your sister can’t drive. How could you?”
“Why can’t I? I spent last summer learning from my uncle. Get in!”
Before Lin Hai and Liu Xinyue could react, Liu Xinqing had already taken the driver’s seat and started the car.
“Damn, is she really going to be okay?” Lin Hai asked Liu Xinyue.
“She did stay at my uncle’s place last summer, but I don’t know if she can actually drive.”
“Hurry up!” Liu Xinqing urged impatiently.
“Alright, let’s get in.” Lin Hai and Liu Xinyue sat in the back seat.
“Hold on tight!” Liu Xinqing said as the car slowly started moving, driving quite steadily.
“Didn’t expect that, little sister-in-law. You can actually drive.”
“Tch, there’s a lot you don’t know about me.” Liu Xinqing, driving on the road for the first time, was a bit nervous. She kept her eyes on the road, not daring to speak too much.
The car fell silent.
Under the dim light of the street lamps, Lin Hai glanced at Liu Xinyue beside him.
Having had a bit to drink, Liu Xinyue was leaning back in her seat, her face flushed, her eyes slightly dazed, and her chest rising and falling gently. She looked incredibly alluring.
A primal urge surged within Lin Hai.
He stealthily reached over and took Liu Xinyue’s hand.
Liu Xinyue panicked, trying to pull her hand away, but Lin Hai held on tightly. She quickly glanced at Liu Xinqing, who was focused on driving, and then pinched Lin Hai’s hand hard.
But Lin Hai wasn’t satisfied with just that. His mind was filled with the memory of the time he and Liu Xinyue had kissed in the car.
Alcohol makes the timid brave!
Lin Hai didn’t care that there was someone else in the car.
He pulled Liu Xinyue into his arms.
Liu Xinyue was shocked but didn’t dare to make a sound. She tried to push Lin Hai away, but this only fueled his desire even more.
Lin Hai leaned in and captured her lips with his.
“Mmm!”
Liu Xinyue wanted to struggle but was afraid her sister would notice. She was both angry and anxious, pinching Lin Hai’s hand as hard as she could.
But Lin Hai was beyond feeling any pain.
His tongue, like a nimble fish, explored the sweetness of Liu Xinyue’s mouth.
Their tongues inevitably intertwined.
Liu Xinyue felt her mind go blank as a strange sensation spread through her body. She could no longer resist and wrapped her arms around Lin Hai’s neck.
Screech! Just as they were lost in the moment, the car came to an abrupt stop.
“Hey, can you two keep it down? There’s a minor in the car!”
Liu Xinqing turned around, both embarrassed and angry.
Liu Xinyue snapped out of it, her face burning with shame.
“Uh…”
Lin Hai was also embarrassed.
Damn, I lost control and ended up putting on a show in front of my sister-in-law.
Just as he was about to say something, Lin Hai suddenly felt something was off. He glanced at the passenger seat.
“Holy crap!” Lin Hai’s throat let out a hoarse scream, and all the alcohol-induced courage vanished in an instant.
