Guide on How to Fail at Online Dating

Ch35 - My love for Xiang Gege! Will never change!!!

Jing Huan had a class in the morning the next day, so he got up at 8am and felt sleepy in the breakfast shop. His head kept drooping as if he was fishing.

He had been tormenting himself for a long time last night as he studied how to play the accompaniment, how to record himself, and how to upload the recording... it took him two hours to figure everything out.

"Huanhuan, did you turn into a thief last night?" Gao Zixiang carried the breakfast for the three of them over with a tray. "Didn't you leave pretty early yesterday?"

Jing Huan rubbed his eyes. "Didn't sleep well."

"Even your voice is hoarse." Gao Zixiang sat down. "Caught a cold?"

"No."

It was just that it took a few recordings yesterday before he was satisfied, which was why his voice was hoarse now.

Good songs were difficult to sing after all, Jing Huan sighed.

He drank two mouthfuls of soybean milk, its viscous sweetness spreading on the tip of his tongue, which sobered him up a little.

"PFFTT–" Lu Wenhao, who was sitting next to him, was wearing his earphones and wasn't in a hurry to eat. His gaze had been fixed the entire time on his phone screen, and he was laughing so hard his mouth was constantly agape.

Jing Huan frowned. "What's wrong with him?"

"Low humour threshold bei, he has been laughing since he got up until now." Gao Zixiang pointed at his ear. "This thing? He didn't even take it off when he was brushing his teeth."

Jing Huan uttered an "oh" and didn't worry about it. He lowered his head and took a bite out of a xiaolongbao; the xiaolongbao was filled with an adequate amount of filling and quite a lot of soup spilled out after just one gentle bite.

Lu Wenhao vaguely heard their conversation. He took off one side of his earphones. "Hey, Xiangxiang, you didn't see your guild's group chat this morning right?"

Gao Zixiang shook his head. "It's so early in the morning, how would there already be people in the guild's group chat?"

"There are! There are already 99+ messages! Someone shared a song in the group chat, it's one of the entries for NCH's singing contest from another server." Lu Wenhao found it amusing when he thought about it. "It's super popular now. It's only been uploaded for a night, but it already has tens of thousands of likes, and it soared straight to the top of the competition likes ranking list, isn't that amazing?"

"So you've had your earphones in the whole morning because you were listening to someone sing?" Gao Zixiang said, "It's a girl ba?"

Lu Wenhao, "It is a girl... no, the main point isn't her gender."

Jing Huan leaned over to Lu Wenhao's side. "Let me hear it, I'd like to see what kind of voice could make you listen to it all morning."

Lu Wenhao obediently placed his earphones gently into Jing Huan's ears.

A familiar voice travelled into his ears. "The horses run towards the south, but the people look towards the north!

Towards the north, the grass are just dry and yellow, with dust flying high!"

"PUU– cough cough... cough..." Jing Huan was shocked, and his food got caught in the middle of his throat, choking him until his face flushed red, and he quickly flung the earphones away in a panic.

Lu Wenhao was stunned. "What, what's wrong?"

Jing Huan shook his head, still coughing quite harshly, and he couldn't speak for quite some time.
