Chapter 97: If you don’t seek death, you won’t die
What would you do if someone pointed at you and scolded you, and every word he said was directed at your flaws and magnified them countless times?
Don’t talk about things like “How should I deal with the world that slanders me, deceives me, humiliates me, laughs at me, despises me, despises me, hates me, and cheats me? Just tolerate him, let him be, leave him alone, avoid him, endure him, respect him, ignore him, and wait a few years and you will see what happens to him”. This is the state of mind that the Zen master Shi De had reached, not Dong Wenrou’s. Xu Yan’s every rap was like a bayonet, constantly stabbing his heart. Even the cheerful laughter around him seemed to have turned into a hail of bullets, beating him all over.
He clenched his fists tightly, his eyes turned red, his eye corners twitched up and down, his voice became disordered, and he completely forgot all the lyrics and melody. He just glared at Xu Yan angrily, looking at his face so close to him, and suppressed his impulse, not to punch him and hit Xu Yan's face crooked.
Xu Yan didn't care about Dong Wenrou's suppression and endurance. He saw that everyone was laughing happily, and he was immediately encouraged. He rapped more happily, and the loud and harsh words came out like a machine gun. When he was in high spirits, he took two steps forward and moved closer to Dong Wenrou, rapping with his mouth flying, and the words of his rap carried saliva and attacked him head on.
"Isn't it because you don't look good, isn't it because you are too ugly, isn't it because you don't know how to be gentle..." Xu Yan rapped a line and spit all over Dong Wenrou's head and face, and the latter's face was almost covered with saliva.
Even a clay man still has some earthiness. Even though Dong Wenrou had a good temper, he couldn't help it. He pushed Xu Yan away and shouted, "That's enough!"
The furious voice echoed in the venue, instantly suppressing the laughter around. The noisy crowd quieted down in an instant. Everyone looked towards the venue, only to see Dong Wenrou breathing heavily, veins bulging on his forehead, his face ferocious and distorted, staring at Xu Yan with anger.
Seeing this, Xu Yan rolled his eyes, shook his head and said, "Brother Wenrou, singing is for entertainment, to entertain others and yourself. Look at you, your face is red while singing, as if you are arguing with someone. How can you be entertaining at all?"
hiss!
The sound of people gasping for air rang out in the crowd. Everyone looked at Xu Yan with sour teeth, and was once again defeated by his shamelessness. This guy really dared to say that!
When Dong Wenrou heard this, she was like a cat whose tail was stepped on. She jumped up and down and said, "Are you singing? Are you singing? This is clearly humiliating!"
"Humiliating people? How can you say that? I just sang a rap song and slightly modified some of the lyrics." Xu Yan pretended to be innocent, and then pretended to be surprised and said, "Oh, Brother Wenrou, you won't misunderstand that I am talking about you, right? Those are just lyrics, not directed at anyone. Don't think too much about it, and don't take it personally!"
"You pointed your finger at me and spit in my face, and you still dare to say you weren't talking about me!"
Dong Wenrou questioned again, but was easily dismissed by Xu Yan with a sentence "Sorry, I'm too involved".
When it comes to singing, Xu Yan is definitely no match for Dong Wenrou, but when it comes to debating, ten Dong Wenrous are no match for Xu Yan. So even though Dong Wenrou knew that Xu Yan was quibbling, she had no way to do anything about him. She could only stare at him fiercely with her eyes wide open.
Xu Yan ignored Dong Wenrou's fiery gaze, glanced at the other side, shook his head and said, "I say, how can you be so angry even about what you ate today? You get angry about memory and singing. Can we still have a happy competition?"
The look of him taking advantage of others and acting ungrateful made everyone speechless, and the people in the company challenged by him were so angry that their teeth were itching. Some of those with bad tempers couldn't help but yell at him.
"Arrogant, too arrogant!"
"Squad leader, let me scold him severely!"
One person couldn't stand Xu Yan's attitude, so he separated the crowd and came to Xu Yan, saying, "It seems that you are very good at sophistry. In this case, do you dare to compete with me in quarreling and insulting others?"
His name is Situ Wen, and everyone calls him Situ. He is the best at quarreling in the company. Seeing Xu Yan being too arrogant and cocky, he couldn't help but jump out and directly proposed to compete with him in quarreling. He wanted to scold Xu Yan severely to vent his anger. As for whether it was a good idea to do so, and whether Xu Yan would agree, he didn't even consider it in his anger!
As expected, these remarks, which were more insulting than quarreling, caused a lot of discussion. Many people who were interested in trouble started to make a fuss, shouting at Xu Yan to agree and turning their eyes to him.
Luo Yifei looked at Situ sympathetically, shook his head and said, "Ah, it turns out that people won't die unless they seek death. Why don't you compete with Xu Yan in quarrels and insults? Aren't you just asking for trouble?"
Lu Xiaolin wanted to stop this farce, but after hearing Luo Yifei's words, he couldn't help but give up the idea and asked curiously: "Why, is Xu Yan good at quarreling?"
"He said he was the quarrel king of seven schools. He once scolded an entire school by himself." Luo Yifei paused and continued, "I don't know if it's true, but the last time I saw him scolding, he scolded for three or four minutes without taking a breath in between. In terms of quarreling and insulting others, he is definitely a master!"
"So awesome!" Lu Xiaolin exclaimed in surprise . Although he still didn't know how bad Xu Yan's quarreling and insulting others would be, he was very good anyway. So he felt relieved and didn't say anything to stop him. He just watched the show with a smile.
Hearing Situ say that quarreling is more insulting than fighting, Xu Yan's eyes suddenly lit up, a hint of excitement emerged from his eyes, and his heart couldn't help but get excited. As the quarreling king of the seven schools, quarreling and insulting others is his forte. Since entering the army, he has never performed well. Now this guy in front of him is actually challenging him without knowing the consequences. Isn't he asking for trouble!
Although thinking this in his heart, Xu Yan remained calm on the surface. He glanced at Situ playfully and said deliberately: "It's more hurtful than quarreling. This is not good!"
"Weren't you very happy making fun of Dong Wenrou before? Are you scared now?" Situ snorted coldly, thinking that Xu Yan was scared!
"Yes, I'm scared!" Xu Yan nodded.
Everyone looked at Xu Yan in surprise. No one had thought that he would actually say that. Is he still the same arrogant and domineering boy? Will he also bow his head and admit defeat?
After a brief silence, doubtful discussions arose.
"How is this going?"
"Why did Xu Yan suddenly bow his head and admit defeat? This is not like his style at all."
"That's right, it's incredible."
"It won't be that simple, he must have some conspiracy!"
