Why didn't you tell me earlier that my little sister is still waiting for me?

Eating doesn’t matter where you eat, so Lin Bufan naturally took people to his own territory, Shangpu International Hotel!

Not long after Lin Bufan and others arrived, they received a notice from Professor Wang that other members who were willing to come to participate in the National Art School Exchange Conference had also arrived!

The group walked into the magnificent Shangpu International Hotel. Lin Bufan instructed the front desk, "Prepare the largest private room and serve the best wine!"

Seeing Lin Bufan, the manager immediately trotted over and said, "Boss Lin, you're here. I'll make arrangements right away!"

After three rounds of wine and five kinds of food, Old Kangtou's face was already red from drinking. Suddenly, he slammed the table and stood up, singing "Dingjun Mountain" at the top of his voice: "This letter came at the right time. God helps Huang Zhong to succeed in his mission——"

Professor Li leaned over to Professor Wang's ear and asked, "Why is Lao Kang so happy today?"

Professor Wang took a sip of his wine and whispered, "I'm feeling proud! You know how much Old Kang has been laughed at during Lin Bufan's absence. Back then, he was so devoted to this kid, giving him whatever he wanted. You could say he loved him better than his own son. But then, he disappeared right after graduation, and many people were gossiping behind his back, wondering if Old Kang had been deceived by this kid..."

Lin Bufan's heart warmed when he heard Lao Kangtou's hoarse singing voice. He stood up and walked to Lao Kangtou and continued to sing: "Standing at the camp gate, the three armies are calling, and the young men, big and small, are listening to the roots and seedlings——"

Old Kang was stunned for a moment, then he burst into laughter and patted Lin Bufan's shoulder vigorously. The two of them sang one after another with great passion. The other teachers also clapped along, and the box was very lively.

At the back of the box, a girl with neat short hair and a gentle temperament was looking at Lin Bufan intently.

She is Xu Lu, a student in the Musical Theatre Department of Kyoto Art College, and is now a highly regarded new generation actor.

"Professor Wang!" Xu Lu asked in a low voice, "Is that the legendary senior Lin Bufan?" Her voice was filled with unconcealable curiosity and excitement.

Professor Li smiled and continued, "Yes, it's this kid. He graduated the same year you enrolled, so he didn't get to cause trouble for your class."

Xu Lu blinked her big eyes and looked at Lin Bufan who was singing enthusiastically with Old Kangtou: "Principal Kang always has a stern face in front of us. I didn't expect..." Before she finished her words, she was interrupted by Old Kangtou's sudden burst of laughter.

When the banquet was over, Lin Bufan held on to Lao Kangtou's hand and refused to let go, insisting on becoming sworn brothers with Lao Kangtou.

Old Kang slammed the table drunkenly and said heroically: "Okay! Let's become sworn brothers! Today, we two will become sworn brothers!" As he said that, he was about to pull Lin Bufan to kneel down.

Professor Wang grabbed Old Kang's arm and said, "Old Kang! Are you crazy? You're the principal and he's a student. How can this be ridiculous?"

Professor Dong also advised with a helpless smile: "Lao Kang, you've had too much to drink. Stop making trouble. If it gets out, people will laugh at you."

Seeing that Lao Kangtou was thinking, Lin Bufan hurriedly spoke up to interfere: "Who said we were drunk? We are very sober! Lao Kangtou has been very kind to me, and I have decided to be your brother today!" As he said that, he was about to pull Lao Kangtou to kowtow.

Professor Wang quickly stopped him and glared at Lin Bufan, "Don't make trouble, kid!" Then he turned to Lao Kang and said, "Lao Kang, think about it. If you really become sworn brothers with him, will he call you principal or big brother in school? How will the students see you?"

Old Kang blinked dazedly, as if he was stumped by the question, but quickly waved his hand: "Who cares! I, Old Kang, don't need to consider other people's opinions when doing things!"

Professor Li saw this and quickly stepped forward to smooth things over. "Alright, alright, this sworn brotherhood thing is too hasty. Why don't we talk about it another day when we're sober? Go back and rest today!"

Everyone hurriedly helped Old Kangtou up. He was still struggling and muttering, "No... We must become sworn brothers today... This kid... can't let him get away..."

Lin Bufan was also pulled back by Jiang Nansun. She whispered to him, "Stop making trouble. Principal Kang is drunk. If you really want to become sworn brothers, wait until he sobers up."

Lin Bufan curled his lips at Jiang Nansun and said unhappily, "If he wasn't drunk, would he be sworn brothers with me?"

Jiang Nansun: ...

Jiang Nansun finally realized that Lin Bufan was taking advantage of Old Kangtou because he was drunk!

In the end, due to the crowd's obstruction, this ridiculous "brotherhood ceremony" could not go on. Old Kangtou was carried back to his room by Professor Wang and Professor Dong, muttering: "Little bastard... next time... you must become sworn brothers..."

Lin Bufan and Jiang Nansun did not stay at the Shangpu International Hotel, but chose to return to Ode to Joy.

Because Lin Bufan was drunk, Jiang Nansun took the car keys on her own initiative.

Along the way, Lin Bufan leaned on the passenger seat, staring at Jiang Nansun's profile without blinking. The neon lights outside the car window flowed on her delicate features, making her skin look like snow, and her eyelashes cast a small shadow under the light.

"What are you looking at!" Jiang Nansun's ears felt hot from Lin Bufan's stare, and her hands gripping the steering wheel tightened unconsciously.

Lin Bufan grinned: "Just because you look good."

"Slippery tongue..." Jiang Nansun muttered softly, but her cheeks turned even redder. To ease the ambiguous atmosphere in the car, she coughed lightly and changed the subject: "I didn't expect that you can sing Peking Opera so well."

"What goes around, the followers follow!" Lin Bufan lazily adjusted his sitting position. "Old Kangtou loves this, I learned it on purpose. Otherwise, why do you think he likes me so much? Is it just because I'm handsome?"

Jiang Nansun couldn't help but roll her eyes: "Shameless!"

After a moment, Jiang Nansun couldn't help but add, "Flatterer."

Lin Bufan laughed heartily and suddenly leaned close to Jiang Nansun's ear: "Then do you want to listen to my flattery? I guarantee it will be more beautiful than the one I gave to Old Kangtou..."

"Hold on tight!" Jiang Nansun's hands trembled, and the car veered slightly off the lane. She was so frightened that she quickly steadied the steering wheel: "If you make trouble again, I'll throw you out of the car!"

Lin Bufan sat back obediently, but his eyes were full of mischievous smiles.

Back to Ode to Joy, as soon as they entered the door, they saw Zhu Suosuo sitting cross-legged on the sofa with snacks in her arms, and a variety show was playing on TV.

"Yo~" Zhu Suosuo's eyes lit up and glanced back and forth between the two of them: "Are you back from your date?"

Jiang Nansun's face flushed red. "Suosuo, what nonsense are you talking about! It's just...it's just a coincidence that I ran into Professor Dong and the others..."

"Really?" Zhu Suosuo raised her eyebrows and deliberately stretched out her tone: "Then why is someone's face as red as a tomato?"

Lin Bufan sat down on the sofa carelessly and snatched the potato chips from Zhu Suosuo's arms: "Suosuo, you don't understand. Our Nansun is hot, right, Nansun?"

Jiang Nansun glared at the two of them, then turned and walked towards her room: "I don't want to bother with you!"

"Hey, don't go!" Zhu Suosuo jumped up and tried to pull Jiang Nansun. "Tell me, did you have fun today? Was the mecha fun? And, what was it like sitting in the boss's arms?"

Jiang Nansun shook off Zhu Suosuo's hand, walked into the room without looking back, and slammed the door shut.

Zhu Suosuo and Lin Bufan looked at each other and laughed at the same time.
