"Mr. Lin is into music too?" Wang Jingjing—oh no, I mean Teacher Bai Jie—covered her mouth in surprise, curiously eyeing Lin Hai.
She thought that a rough, fierce-looking rich hunk like him should be interested in things like weaponry and tough vehicles.
"Hehe, a little, just a little," Lin Hai modestly replied, even though that expression looked rather pretentious in his sister-in-law's eyes.
Ruoshuang, lively and mischievous, got an idea: "Brother-in-law, why don't you go up and embarrass yourself after Teacher Wang finishes singing?"
"Cough cough, since you say it's embarrassing, now I'm even less inclined," Lin Hai sheepishly responded, his sister-in-law was such a Little Witch, her eyes clearly showing her malevolent intentions.
"Mr. Lin, I'm really looking forward to it, I believe you'll definitely surprise us."
Before Ruoshuang could speak, Wang Jingjing eagerly said.
Lin Hai nearly choked on his words; he was here to make contact with Sister Bai Gu, not to hold a concert.
"Ah, class is starting, let's go in. Every time we have a music class, Teacher Wang's fans return," Ruoshuang cheerfully walked in.
Lin Hai found a seat and sat down.
He noticed that many people were seated around; were they all Wang Jingjing's student fans?
"Handsome classmate, I want to sit next to you," Ruoshuang chuckled, pretending not to know him as she approached.
"Sorry, this seat is taken by my girlfriend," Lin Hai rolled his eyes.
"Humph!" Ruoshuang pouted, obviously miffed.
"Sh*t, classmate, you're awesome, even daring to offend the school's belle Ruoshuang!" A chubby guy with glasses next to Lin Hai looked at him with admiration.
"Damn, what kind of nickname is that? The school's belle Ruoshuang!"
"Shh, keep it down, don't let her hear. We call her that behind her back because she often kicks the guys who are up to no good or annoy her right in the nuts," the chubby guy said nervously looking around, relieved Ruoshuang hadn't heard him.
"Sh*t, she's like a little devil," Lin Hai muttered to himself.
"Big bro, you look like a senior student, I haven't seen you before. I'm in the same grade and department as Ruoshuang, really. Take care later and protect your, um, lower body."
"Thanks a lot," Lin Hai felt deeply on the inside, his sister-in-law was too fierce.
"Hehe, no need to thank me, we're all classmates after all. What's your name, senior? Mine's Wei Shengjin."
"Oh, I'm Lin Hai," Lin Hai nodded, then asked in surprise, "What did you say your name was?"
"Wei Shengjin, cool right?"
"My dad spent a lot of money back in the day to have a grandmaster calculate this name for me, saying I was destined to be rich and powerful, that I could look down upon others, haha. I suspect I might be a future grandmaster or maybe like Bill Gates, an internet CEO?"
Wei Shengjin said laughingly, completely self-indulgent in his daydreams.
Lin Hai suspected this chubby guy's dad had been scammed by some shady worldly society figure back in the day.
What kind of name is "Sanitary Pad" anyway?
Watching the chubby guy reveling in his name as if it were something to boast about, Lin Hai couldn't help but feel that kids these days are just too naive.
"Eh? Are you reading a novel?"
"No, I'm looking at a treatise on the sublimation of thought and morality."
"Oh, no wonder you're so naive. Bro, let me introduce you to a book, called 'Super Bodyguard of the Female CEO', it's really good, helps boost your IQ."
"Really? I love reading online novels the most, is this book cool?"
"It's okay, there's pretend pretentiousness and ambiguity at the beginning, and later it unfolds into a grand storyline with all kinds of showing off, stepping on others, face-slapping, high IQ battles, and so on, totally thrilling."
"Damn, that's exactly what I like!" Wei Shengjin was extremely excited as if he had found spiritual sustenance.
Formal class has started.
Wang Jingjing first lectured on a great deal of music theory knowledge.
Lin Hai and Wei Shengjin listened as if enchanted, nearly dozing off.
After finally enduring the theory part, Wang Jingjing cleared her throat gently to relax it and began to demonstrate for everyone.
Lin Hai had to admit that Bai Gu and his sister were both devils.
Bai Gu was the kind of abnormal devil, taking an extremely short route.
As for his sister, she had a sweet voice. That voice, whether on "Avenue of Stars" or "Super Brain," could totally snatch the crown.
It was an intoxicating state of mind that seemed to originate from the soul.
Lin Hai narrowed his eyes, immersed in the music, his trip here wasn't in vain at all. It's a pity for her to be a teacher; if she were a star, she would definitely be hugely popular.
"Next, please welcome a special friend to perform a song for us today, Mr. Lin."
"Whaaat?" Lin Hai was soaking in his enjoyment when he realized Wang Jingjing had finished singing and was looking at him, while many students around him were giving him strange looks.
Especially Wei Shengjin, who stared at Lin Hai with a look of shock and disbelief.
"Mr. Lin, welcome to showcase your singing talent to my students at our school."
Wang Jingjing spoke with a sincere and grateful look in her eyes.
"Damn it, sh*t, Ruoshuang screwed me over again." Lin Hai wished he could strangle the ten thousand galloping horses in his heart.
The music amphitheater was large enough to accommodate over a thousand students.
And now, about half of it was filled with people looking at him, truly the center of attention. Pretending to be dead was just not an option.
"So you're from the entertainment industry?" Wei Shengjin said in surprise.
"Cough cough, you should say I'm from the music industry."
Lin Hai corrected pompously; he always felt that the term "entertainment industry" would be associated with various shady unwritten rules and bad practices.
Left with no choice, he could only grit his teeth and go on stage, while internally he scoured his brain for a song he was good at.
Walking slowly while pondering in his mind, should he sing "Eight Consecutive Kills," or should he sing "Shoe Shining"? It seems both are kind of vulgar.
And this hesitant, slow movement, in the grand music amphitheater under the setting atmosphere, appeared steady and imposing.
"Could my brother-in-law really know music? Isn't he just a security leader who's good at fighting?" Ruoshuang was doubting herself too.
Wang Jingjing was greatly relieved. She had been a bit worried that Lin Hai might embarrass himself, but now seeing his calm and steady demeanor, like a music grandmaster, she felt assured.
Once on the stage in the center, Lin Hai was internally suffering without being able to voice it.
"Mr. Lin, we appreciate it."
"Don't mention it, Teacher Wang." Lin Hai could only put on a hypocritically genteel smile.
"I must say, your presence has a certain air of someone in a high position; it seems you truly understand music."
"Heh, a little bit, a little bit." Lin Hai was inwardly bitter, but he could only put on an even greater front on the surface.
"Then please, begin."
"Oh."
What should he sing? Lin Hai was in a quandary.
Suddenly, he thought of a song.
"Got it, heh heh, let's just sing that one"
