His abilities are even more terrifying than possessing the nuclear button.
Chapter 98 The Longest Summer Vacation
2025-03-23 16:52:01 Author: Wukong Who Can Eat
The weather in July is like a giant steamer, extremely hot and humid.
The air seemed to be frozen in place, showing no sign of movement whatsoever.
Every breath was hot and stifling, and the leaves on the roadside trees drooped listlessly, as if complaining about the unbearable heat.
Lu Jing was wearing a pair of shorts, a vest, and flip-flops.
We arrived at the restaurant where the group was having dinner.
It looks quite luxurious, but it's all in English.
He doesn't recognize it.
As soon as I stepped inside, I was stopped by the waiter at the door.
"Do you have an appointment, please?"
Lu Jing was stunned.
His English grades aren't that good, besides.
They don't test listening comprehension in the college entrance exam here.
"Can you speak Chinese?"
The waiter smiled slightly and switched to Chinese:
"Do you have an appointment, sir?"
Lu Jing thought to himself, "What do you mean?"
You can speak Chinese, so why are you trying to talk to me in English?
"It's a reservation, room 185, booked by a guest surnamed Song."
"Oh, you're Mr. Song Zeqi's classmate, right?"
"Mm." Lu Jing nodded.
Then I followed the waiter into private room number 185.
Several girls had already arrived in the room.
Lu Jing greeted them and then found a corner to sit down.
Lu Jing transferred here later, partly due to his personality.
So he barely spoke a few words to the other students in the class.
He habitually sat in the corner waiting for dinner to be served.
Soon after, Song Zeqi, Tian Xiran, Ma Jianyu, Shen Chuyue and others arrived.
Everyone greeted each other, chatting and laughing.
Lu Jing felt that this gathering was no different from the others. He whispered to Ma Jianyu while watching other popular people in the class chat.
For example, Song Zeqi and Shen Chuyue.
Lu Jing still habitually considers himself a nobody.
They regard people like Song Zeqi and Shen Chuyue as the center of their social interactions.
Because they are popular.
Everyone was circling around them.
It's usually Song Zeqi who brings up a topic, or others who are joking with Shen Chuyue, asking Tian Xiran about things in the entertainment industry...
But while eating, Lu Jing vaguely felt that something was wrong.
Everyone seemed to be talking about him.
This made Lu Jing feel flattered and overwhelmed, as if he had suddenly become a celebrity.
This was not his imagination.
Now, everyone in the entire Second High School knows Lu Jing.
Even the four most popular figures in this year's college entrance examination—Song Zeqi, Shen Chuyue, Lu Xue, and Tian Xiran—were overshadowed by him alone.
On the day of the college entrance examination, I went against the flow of the crowd.
At the time, some parents were recording the incident, which happened to capture Lu Jing's entire ordeal.
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that it went viral across the entire internet.
Add to that a cool and catchy background music.
Coupled with his resolute gaze.
Lu Jing spent the entire day watching short videos about himself.
He was so happy he was rolling around in bed.
So handsome! !
"What fleeting farewells, like the moon's gentle light brushing against the passing years, flicker and fade amidst faltering steps..."
"Beyond the mountains, there are even higher mountains; halfway up the mountain, a clap of thunder shakes the treetops!"
Soaring high, piercing through clouds and mist, across countless mountains and rivers.
Enduring frost and snow, forging a sword through ten years of honing.
Behold, I alone will stand guard, daring to silence ten thousand men; as a soaring goose, I will traverse glaciers, my sharp edge cleaving through the heavens…
Lu Jing scrolled through the various comments netizens made about him.
The overwhelmingly positive reviews praised the young hero.
Lu Jingda was so happy that his nose was practically snotting.
But in front of others, he has to pretend that he doesn't care at all, as if he is just a hero who does it out of interest.
It all feels like a dream.
A few months ago, he was nobody in everyone's eyes, an unknown figure, Lu Xue's brother, a dreamy loser...
Thinking about how the school's most beautiful girl looked down on him, he imagined the moment he would prove them wrong.
Everything has changed now.
Lu Jing straightened his back, and he was able to chat and laugh with Shen Chuyue again.
It felt like I was suddenly on equal footing with them.
He spoke with more confidence.
I no longer feel like I'm being scrutinized by someone superior.
He wasn't afraid of being laughed at for not knowing how to eat steak.
Just like in some people's eyes, a billionaire eating steak with chopsticks is called knowing how to enjoy life.
If poor people eat steak with chopsticks, that's considered out of touch with the times and low-class.
However, this was the first time Lu Jing had ever felt so tired talking to others.
I didn't say as much at any of the previous gatherings as I did at this one.
Lu Jing also noticed that the way the girls in his class looked at him was different now.
ogle??
Lu Jing steadied himself.
After the party, they were going to go to a karaoke bar to sing.
Lu Jing coughed lightly, took a sip of his drink, and cleared his throat.
These days, under Miao Miao's guidance...
Lu Jing's singing skills improved rapidly.
Sure enough, as soon as they arrived at the KTV, everyone egged Lu Jing on to sing a song.
Lu Jing didn't stand on ceremony and took the microphone to speak passionately.
"Even if I were to wander the world for three thousand years, even if I were a poplar tree in Kashgar, I would search for you meticulously for centuries..."
A poem about poplar trees in Kashgar.
This earned Lu Jing a round of enthusiastic applause.
.........
night.
People gradually dispersed.
