Chapter 18: Please Be My Assistant

  "Haha, that's great." Wang Liang said with a smile that didn't quite reach his eyes. "Since you've come to our school, you must perform a few programs for us. Otherwise, it would be looking down on us." Wang Liang pressed Su Nan with his words, not letting him shirk off the suggestion.

  The host felt the atmosphere was a bit unusual, as if the two people were not on good terms, but they were desperately trying to maintain harmony, rushing over in case the two had a conflict on stage that would affect the evening party.

  "Did you two know each other before? Are you friends?" The host found a way to break the silence.

  "It's okay." Su Nan nodded, "We indeed knew each other before, otherwise Wang Liang wouldn't have called my name to perform the program on stage."

  Three people on stage were speaking incoherently, and the audience below was getting restless, shouting out of their seats.

  "Stop chatting, let's get on with the show!" Some impatient people are already urging them on.

  "What are you doing? What's there for three big men to chat about, hurry up and perform, we want to see the show!" a lewd man shouted.

  "Get out of here, we don't know you. Is this how you talk? What's with three big men not being able to chat, do they need to perform? Perform what, perform exploding chrysanthemums?" Sitting next to the lewd man was an even more lewd person. It seemed like he was refuting the lewd man, but instead made his words even more obscene and vulgar.

  On stage, Wang Liang acted more like a friend at this time. "Host, Su Nan is of course our friend and he's talented in many ways. If he performs, the show will definitely be wonderful."

  "Really?" The host made an excited face, "Then what program will our friend Sunan perform for us?" By this time, he had assumed that Sunan and Wang Liang were indeed friends, and their earlier behavior was just a way of communicating between friends.

  "This..." Su Nan opened his mouth. Before he could speak, Wang Liang had already snatched the conversation from him and started speaking loudly.

  "Host, isn't it too monotonous to have singing and dancing every time at this party? Su Nan is a multi-talented person, if he's still allowed to perform singing and dancing, then it would be a waste of the opportunity for him to go on stage. Don't you think we should consider letting him show off some special talents instead?"

  "Really?" The host's eyes lit up, this proposal was indeed very good.

  "Su Nan, Wang Liang said you are talented and versatile, can perform many types of programs, I wonder what you plan to perform today?"

  "Hehe!"

  Su Nan sneered twice. Wang Liang's thoughts were easy to understand, when it came to special skills, for ordinary people, being able to sing and dance or play a musical instrument was already quite impressive, if they really couldn't perform these, then they wouldn't know how to do anything else. They just thought that they themselves wouldn't be able to do it, so they excluded singing, dancing, and playing instruments from the scope, wanting to make themselves look foolish.

  But today he happened to meet Su Nan, and his abacus was destined to be useless.

  "I'll talk about the performance later, but this program can't be performed by one person alone, it needs a few helpers. I don't know if Wang Liang is willing to help out. And also, Yuan Lin and Zhao Jun, host, can you also invite them to come up together and help me perform this program?"

  "Great!" The host was very excited to hear that Su Nan had a mysterious program to perform. The evening party could go well, and it would also be a bonus for him, allowing the teacher to say a few good words on file.

  Take a step forward, the host faces the audience, "Ladies and gentlemen, Su Nan's friend is willing to perform a mysterious program for us, but this program requires several assistants. He has recommended three classmates, Yuan Lin, Wang Liang, and Zhao Jun, to come and help him. Next, let's welcome Yuan Lin and Zhao Jun with applause."

  "Wow~ Wow Wow~~"

  A wave of applause rose, urging Yuan Lin and Zhao Jun forward.

  "Go on! Get on stage quickly!"

  "Damn Wang Liang!" Yuan Lin cursed loudly. It was supposed to be a squeeze on Su Nan, giving him a surprise attack and making him lose face. But how did things develop to the point where he himself was being squeezed?

  If he doesn't go on stage, it would be a loss of face. After all, Yuan Lin is also a notable figure in the school, although he has offended many people, but his family is wealthy, and he is a standard rich second generation, and many people are willing to surround him and fawn over him.

  But when it comes to going on stage, Yuan Lin always feels like he has no bottom in his heart, as if there is a big pit in front of him waiting for him to jump down.

  Wang Liang stood on the stage, his face turning red and white, originally wanting to frame Su Nan, but unexpectedly being lightly flipped by him, pulling himself, Yuan Lin, and Zhao Jun into it. Although he didn't know what Su Nan was going to perform, given their relationship, it definitely wouldn't be a good thing. Would Su Nan really find the three of them to help with his performance if it were something that would expose his face? But now he didn't dare leave the stage, as fleeing in disarray would be too embarrassing. It was his suggestion to the host, intending to make Su Nan lose face, but unexpectedly Su Nan accepted and even counterattacked.

  "It seems that Yuan Lin and Zhao Jun, the two students, do not want to come on stage." The host waited for a while on the stage, seeing that Yuan Lin and another person were still sitting there without standing up, and couldn't help but mock them. Usually, he didn't like Yuan Lin's arrogance, and today he grasped the opportunity, how could he let him off?

  "Go up, go up quickly!"

  The audience has always liked to watch lively scenes, the more they see Yuan Lin's reluctance, the more they shout at them, whistle, applaud, and use every means to stir them up.

  "Brother Yuan, what can we do now?" Zhao Jun looked at Yuan Lin with a bit of grievance. He hadn't been in contact with Su Nan today. The plan was made by Yuan Lin and Wang Liang, with Yuan Lin as the mastermind and Wang Liang as the accomplice and executor, while Zhao Jun was just an audience who got involved, but didn't expect to be affected by the chaos.

  "Get on stage!" Yuan Lin gritted his teeth, spitting out two words. Things had developed to this point, and he couldn't help it. If he didn't get on stage, today's face would be lost for sure. It was better to get on stage, under the watchful eyes of everyone, Su Nan wouldn't dare hurt him either.

  After finishing speaking, Yuan Lin stood up and Zhao Jun also followed suit. The two of them walked towards the stage, one in front of the other.

  "Ning Yu, you said Su Nan let Yuan Lin and them go on stage, what is this for?" Chen Tong asked in confusion.

  "Surely you won't make them targets, will you?" Ning Yu guessed and said a sentence, she also didn't understand Su Nan's meaning.

  "That's right, let them be the target!" Inspired, Chen Tong suddenly thought of a scene and couldn't help but shout out loud, "This Sou Nan actually thought of using this trick. This should scare them half to death!"

  "What did you say?" Ning Yu was startled. He didn't expect that his casual remark would cause Chen Tong to react so greatly.

  "It's just making them targets." Chen Tong said affirmatively. He chuckled as he spoke.

  Jing Yu didn't understand, so he whispered an explanation to her, which made Ning Yu burst out laughing too. The two of them giggled and laughed continuously, their flowers trembling wildly, causing the wolves beside them to swallow their saliva one by one.

  Yuan Lin and Zhao Jun walked onto the stage, Su Nan greeted them with a smile, extending his hand to shake hands with the two of them. "Yuan Lin, Zhao Jun, nice to see you again. I hope you can help out with this performance."

  "Hmph!" Yuan Lin, who was used to being arrogant, couldn't take this, "Su Nan, don't play any tricks, if you really want to provoke me, you'll be in for a good show!" He didn't know about the situation between Su Nan and Da Hei, and thought that Da Hei hadn't had time to find Su Nan yet, so he wasn't afraid of him at all. On the contrary, he was imagining the scene of Su Nan being brutally beaten by Da Hei and his gang, feeling pleased with himself, and laughing wildly.

  "Is that so?" Su Nan responded indifferently, not bothering to argue with them. "Yuan Lin, I'm just asking you to help perform a program, so tell me if you dare or not. Of course, you can rest assured, there won't be any danger."

  Su Nan said it so simply, but Yuan Lin felt that there was a pit in the middle, and he hesitated to respond. However, they had already stepped onto the stage and couldn't just retreat like this.

  The host also saw that Yuan Lin and Su Nan didn't get along, but he had always looked down on Yuan Lin. Taking advantage of this opportunity, he naturally wanted to teach Yuan Lin a lesson as well. "Yuan Lin, are you ready? You can't keep everyone waiting for too long."

  "Alright, I'll be your assistant." Yuan Lin replied loudly. "Su Nan, what program are you going to perform?"

  When Yuan Lin agreed, Su Nan smiled strangely and said, "Actually, this program is quite simple. Later I will point to a position, you just need to stand there without moving."

  "After finishing, he took over the host's microphone and said to the audience: 'Actually, the program I'm going to perform is very familiar to everyone, but few people have really performed it. Probably none of you have seen a live version before. Today, thanks to Yuan Lin and three classmates who volunteered to help me complete this program, let's applaud their courage and thank them.'"

  The host on the side saw Su Nan still keeping it a secret, couldn't help but ask loudly, "Su Nan, hurry up and tell us what your program is about. Look at all these audience members, they're all getting impatient."

  "Good!" Su Nan shouted. He quickly walked down to the field, picked up several apples from the table, and asked someone to help him carry a few candles upstairs.

  Back on stage, Yuan Lin stood up straight, stretched out his hands flat, and placed the apple on top of his head and in the palm of his hand.

  "Ladies and gentlemen, I believe you have all seen the flying knife technique in movies and TV shows. Today, I will perform this technique live for everyone. Yuan Lin, please stand still over there, and from ten meters away, I will use a flying knife to hit these three apples placed on top of your head and palm. What do you think of this program?"

  "Good!"

  "Awesome!"

  "This is the real deal!"

  After dragging on for so long, such a shocking message suddenly burst out, and the audience below was boiling. They clapped their hands and shouted loudly. Such a program has only been seen on TV, and I really didn't expect to see it in real life. For a time, the audience's emotions were mobilized, and the atmosphere at the scene reached its peak.

  "No - no way, I object!" Yuan Lin shouted loudly. This was simply thinking of taking his life, who knew what kind of kung fu Su Nan had? What if his aim was not good, and the flying knife shot into his own face? Even if he didn't die, ruining his looks would be a regrettable thing, although his appearance wasn't great to begin with.

  While shouting, he took down the apple on his head and threw it aside.
