71 I Say Theyre Trash (2/2)
”Stop! Your pitch is too high. Lower it,” Qiu Liang instructed, interrupting.
An Huanhuan adjusted her tone and sang on: ”The wind is roaring…”
”Still too high! Try again!” Qiu Liang interrupted again.
An Huanhuan was furious, but for the sake of the department's reputation, she held it in, cleared her throat, and sang again.
After six tries, she finally met Qiu Liang's expectations.
”We all took music lessons from Elementary to High School, so what went wrong with you? Did your Physical Fitness teacher teach you to sing or something?” Qiu Liang remarked snidely.
”You…”
An Huanhuan's face was red with anger. She gritted her teeth and glared at Qiu Liang.
”Huanhuan!”
Huang Ruoran called out, telling her not to start a fight with Qiu Liang. Though An Huanhuan was angry, she decided to restrain herself.
”That's too low. What do you think you are? A subwoofer?”
”What are you singing? Is that how you are supposed to sing this line?”
”You are one of the worst female singers I've ever come across! Are you singing or just memorizing lyrics?”
Qiu Liang criticized every girl in the English faculty until all their faces went red with anger. Everyone began having their doubts and wondered if their singing was really that bad.
Zhao Shijie looked at the cocky Qiu Liang. His eyebrows began to furrow. In his heart, he was secretly scolding his peer: Qiu Liang, do you still want to find a girlfriend from the English Department? Just flaunt your skills a little, and that's it! Right now, you're going totally overboard and insulting all the ladies. Are you a fool?
Zhao Shijie coughed a couple of times in an attempt to signal as much to Qiu Liang.
However, Qiu Liang was wholly oblivious and high on his musical superiority and might. He was sure that he looked really cool and that he had attained the status of a male god in the eyes of these girls. Then, all of a sudden, he realized there were three empty seats. Pointing at the three vacant chairs, he exclaimed, ”What's going on here?”
”Those seats belong to the three guys in our class,” Huang Ruoran explained. For the sake of increasing her department's singing standards, this was the third time she checked her anger at Qiu Liang.
”Why aren't they here?” Qiu Liang asked in a roaring voice.
”Don't you know that the male dorms are quite a long way from here? Surely, it takes them more time to get here,” Huanhuan shot back, crossing her arms on her hips.
Qiu Liang crooned, ”Is that a valid reason? No wonder your singing standards are so low. If you can't even get everyone here on time, then how can you expect to sing well?”
Seeing the girls glaring at him, Qiu Liang finally realized he had gone overboard. It was time for him to backtrack and curry favor. Hence, in a reverent tone, he said, ”Actually, you girls sang fine. These three black sheep are the ones who lack any sort of responsibility and honor. I say that they are the real trash and rat sh*t here. Does anyone disagree?”
He was afraid to offend the girls but could care less about the guys.
After hearing this, all the girls were shocked. They were all thinking: Is Qiu Liang from Mars? Doesn't he realize that he's referring to the Hero Luo Trio and calling them trash and rat sh*t? Is he asking for a free one-way ticket to hell?
”Class Monitor, we're here!”
Just then, Zhu Xiaofei's voice rang out in the distance.
