After delivering the congee, ng Fan was bored out of his mind. It was the weekend, and Zhang Zhou Wei and the others were all out on dates when he asked them to go out. When he asked Da Fei, they were all busy as well. ng Fan did not know where to go by himself.
[Mic Hog] only had 130 songs left, and he felt uncomfortable leaving the task when it was so close to completion. Smack! He suddenly slapped his head. How could he forget the fickle netizens!
The Shi Zhan Youth!
ng Fan rembered he had his WeChat and imdiately sent him a voice chat invite that was answered not long after.
“Are you busy this afternoon?”
“Nope! ng host do you need a car? I’ll head over now!”
“No no no. I don’t need a car.” ng Fan interrupted him and continued. “Out of all our netizens, how many do you know of that are in Hangzhou?”
“Several! Didn’t we run into a bunch in Song Cheng last ti? Us Hangzhou folk have created a chat group, and aside from watching your stream, we’ve hung out together too.”
“That’s incredible. I’ll treat you guys to karaoke this afternoon. Wanna co?”
“Of course! Where are you, I’ll co right now!”
“… Uhm, can you keep the headcount below ten people though? I’ll send you the address now.”
“I understand, I’ll call them now!”
Twenty minutes later, ng Fan welcod the Shi Zhan youth and his two friends into his booth. Next, a new person arrived every few minutes until there were nine. Four guys and five girls, so including ng Fan, it was perfect to couple up. This Shi Zhan Youth had so next-level organizational abilities.
Since there were only 130 songs left, and he was with a group of internet friends, ng Fan was too embarrassed to directly hog the mic. He let go and enjoyed his ti, singing, eating and drinking.
Although the ten of them were eting for the first ti, their ages were similar and had similar interests and passions. It wasn’t difficult to hang out together, and the atmosphere was harmonious as well.
In the afternoon, ng Fan ended up only getting forty or so experience points. After karaoke, they went off and shared a al together before dispersing.
In the evening, ng Fan did not continue to invite people to go out and went to another KTV wearing his hat. From 7:00 pm, he sang until 12:30, completing the last 90 songs.
“Ding! You’ve sung 1000 songs by hogging the mic at KTV. You’ve completed the task [Mic Hog]; Reward: Points 1000.”
“Ding! You’ve completed the task [Mic Hog], gaining the title [Mic Hog] (Singing skills 5, voice appeal 3)”
At this ti, ng Fan was in the third booth of the night.
He didn’t enter this booth because it was all girls inside; it was because they seed to be having a good ti. These six girls completely entered the zone when ng Fan entered, drunkenly singing and having a good ti. They had no perception of the extra voice and the extra person in the room.
At this point, they couldn’t even sing what was ant to be sung.
When the song “Give a Reason to Forget” ca up, ng Fan was about to leave but hesitated for a mont. He picked up the microphone once again.
He wanted to test his newly added attributes.
“The rain has stopped…”
After singing the first line, ng Fan was stunned. When his singing skills increased, it ca with improved vocal performance, added pitch, range, tone, and sound quality. ng Fan didn’t even have to think about it, it just sounded so good!”
“… but why is the sky still Gray? I rember you said we have to be happy.”
ng Fan sang and unconsciously entered an emotional state.
Suddenly, the girls in the room who had been crazily singing suddenly quieted down. Their expressions were shocked as if they just heard so heart-wrenching voice. But it didn’t sound like that. However, the corners of their mouths slowly lifted into a smile.
“… I feel like I’m alone. Every ti I smile, my heart is bitterly crying.”
At the mont, ng Fan was curious to see what his voice sounded like with both his new voice and the added validation. He was worried the hat would mask its effects and had taken the hat off in the spur of the mont.
“Give a reason to forget, the you that loved so much.”
As ng Fan took off his hat, the six girls were stunned when they saw him. They didn’t scream but were carried away by ng Fan’s voice.
One of the girls began to break down, sobbing heavily.
“So love seems more clear when you are far away…”
When ng Fan finished singing, the five girls, including the one who was crying the loudest, were all stricken with tears.
This was a song about heartbreak and the disappearance of love. It was easy enough to provoke tears on its own, not to ntion these girls were already long gone. Plus, with ng Fan’s 4 vocal skills…
After the song, ng Fan put on his hat to leave but paused at the door. Suddenly, he couldn’t help but remove the hat and erupted into laughter.
His laughter was filled with happiness and vocal appeal plus his added smile appeal… The girls who had just been overwheld with tears suddenly began to laugh with tears in their eyes.
“This… this is taking it too far!”
ng Fan grimaced but didn’t know how to explain. He could only put on his hat and slip away. He bought so food and drink from the counter and brought it to the booth as if it were so form of compensation.
When he left the KTV, ng Fan could confirm the 6 singing skill and 4 voice appeal from his tasks, and the black magic microphone was a terrifying trait. His singing skills weren’t on a professional level, but with the voice appeal, he was way more attractive than professional singers were.
He wasn’t sure about anything else, but at least he could make a crowd cry. If he included his smile appeal, it was even easier to make them laugh.
He stepped outside the KTV and passed a convenient store. ng fan took off his hat and entered. “Boss, do you guys have wa hahahahahaha?”
The boss heaved with laughter. “You guys hahaha are all poison hahahaha you’re the fourth one today hahahaha!”
ng Fan was a bit embarrassed. He managed an “early blessing for the new year” and slipped away.
He was just outside the store when his phone rang.
It was almost 1:00 am, who could be calling at this hour? He assud it was ng Cai Wei, but he was stunned when he answered the phone.
Su Qing Cen!
He had exchanged Wechat information with Su Qing Cen before, but they had never contacted each other. His idol was calling him late at night, and ng Fan was both excited and nervous.
He took a deep breath and picked it up. “Hello.”
“Sorry to bother you so late. I didn’t disturb your sleep, did I?” Su Qing Cen said apologetically.
“No, of course not. I haven’t slept yet.”
“It’s like this. I had so work today in Hangzhou, and I just finished. I’ve been in a bad mood for various reasons and wanted to talk to soone about it. I didn’t want to find soone in the industry and rembered you were in Hangzhou, so I gave you a call. It sounds like a stretch, but I really want to see you laugh. Your smile is kind of… magical. Seeing it seems to make people happy.”
ng Fan froze. Could it be his presence was so great after taking off his hat that it had drawn Su Qing Cen who was in a talkative mood toward himself?
He then smiled. “What do you an magic? You can just say it’s poison. Then how about I send you a video?”
Although he had already seen Su Qing Cen, his heart skipped at the thought of video chatting with his idol.
