Chapter 33: Rabbit Ears (6000 words chapter)

"Working part-time, how about you?"

Lin Nanxing replied to the message.

"I'm eating ice cream and sending you a photo."

Jin Jixiu sent a small blue box containing ice cream to the shop.

"You are really leisurely. Can you eat ice cream during working hours?"

Lin Nanxing said.

After entering the exam week, his report was almost finished.

Because he usually works hard to take notes in class, there is no need to improvise and he is very confident in his report.

Moreover, his Korean proficiency is very high and he basically doesn’t make any grammatical errors.

He was even more worried about what happened to this guy Li Guangzai's report.

"Because it's my break now, but I'm a little happy thinking about going to Hongdae. It's a pity that I didn't take a good stroll when I went there before."

Kim Ji Soo sent a message again.

"Don't you like shopping?"

Lin Nanxing asked doubtfully.

"Hey, it's okay to just take a stroll. Anyway, I'm looking forward to the evening. My jendeugie asked me to come over. See you in the evening."

Kim Ji Soo sent a message again.

"Well, you should be busy."

Lin Nanxing replied to the message.

The work in the coffee shop was still going on, and he was thinking about going bowling in the evening.

He is very good at fighting. I wonder if he will be completely beaten by Kim Ji Soo.

Card through!

"Oppa, good lunch! What are you doing?"

It turned out to be a message from winter.

"Good afternoon, I'm currently working part-time."

Lin Nanxing sent a kakaotalk message while looking at the empty shops and thinking about going to Hongdae at night.

Ji Soo said she wanted to go shopping first.

Speaking of which, he hasn't gone shopping for a long time.

As an otaku who is only interested in rap, his life is indeed a bit monotonous.

"Are you working? Are you okay during exam week?"

Winter asked curiously.

"It should be fine. I usually try hard to listen to the lectures."

Lin Nanxing responded to the message saying that he was very confident in himself.

"Then come on, I have to practice dancing with my friends."

winter sent another message.

"...ok."

Lin Nanxing was already used to the way he chatted with this fan.

In the class kakaotalk chat group, some people are discussing reports and group assignments, and have made appointments to go to the library or coffee shop to complete group assignments and reports.

"My report is finished anyway, so I have time to make a second mixtape."

Lin Nanxing just took his mobile phone and watched the killing verse video on the dingo music channel on YouTube for a while. He still liked this plan very much.

Many well-known rappers in the peninsula are on the killing verse.

"I remember that Swervy seemed to have been on this one too, but that Antu Ri was really weird."

Lin Nanxing touched his chin.

Turi, this name is very magical.

Just as he was thinking about this, a long-haired girl walked in with a sign hanging around her neck. She was probably an office worker nearby.

Half of a cigarette case was vaguely exposed in her pocket, with esse written on it.

"A girl who smokes?"

Lin Nanxing thought.

The girl packed up a glass of iced Americano and left.

Lin Nanxing's SNS rang at this time. It turned out that Swervy had made an appointment for a specific time to record the feature and told him to just come to her at that time.

"That's okay. I can make a little more money this way, and I can also update my music equipment. I can also treat Zhixiu to a big dinner. It's a bit embarrassing to always eat her midnight snack."

Lin Nanxing muttered to himself.

Unexpectedly, it was past five o'clock in the afternoon.

After Lin Nanxing changed his shift, he put on his down jacket, went back to his apartment, and started writing verse according to the beat and theme that swervy sent him in the mailbox.

There is still some time before the appointment with Ji Soo, so there is no need to rush.

"This beat has a bit of a chill-hop feel to it, which is a bit interesting."

Lin Nanxing smiled.

Card through!

At this moment, his kakaotalk sounded again.

"Oppa, do you want to meet me next time?"

At this moment, winter suddenly sent a message.

"Ah? Meet?"

Lin Nanxing was a little surprised.

After all, this fan of mine seems to be only interested in my rap.

"Hmm, let's have some coffee together, and can I ask for your autograph?"

Winter sent a message.

It wasn't that she was interested in Lin Nanxing, but when she was in the club before, this guy hid half of his face, which made her a little curious.

"Let me think about it, I may not have time."

Lin Nanxing replied to the message.

"Okay then, tell me when you have time."

winter said.

"Can."

Lin Nanxing thought for a while and had not yet decided whether to meet his fans.

Ding dong!

At the same time, his SNS rang, and it turned out that it was An Turi who liked him on Instagram.

"This guy is really annoying."

Lin Nanxing thought.

Fortunately, he has roughly finished writing the verse (the verse, the verse is composed of bar (a line of words in rap, a measure), generally a verse has 16 bars, and a rap consists of 2 or 3 verses), when the time comes

All it takes is a slight modification.

Card through!

"I'm already here. I'll be at Exit 9 of Hongdae in a minute. Come quickly."

Kim Ji-soo sent a kakaotalk message.

She just went to object to have a glass of iced Americano and bought a white canvas bag with an elephant pattern.

"I know, I'll be there in a minute."

Lin Nanxing said.

He also has to leave for the bowling alley.

"In the building where the gs25 convenience store is located, I was wearing a black down jacket, a black baseball cap, and round-rimmed glasses today."

Kim Ji-soo took a selfie and sent it to Lin Nanxing.

"gs25, right? I know."

Lin Nanxing put on his down jacket, picked up his backpack, ran out of the apartment and ran towards the subway station.

To avoid being bitten by Kim Ji Soo after being late.

Her bite power is truly amazing.

When he arrived at the subway station, he swiped his transportation card and waited for the subway to arrive.

After a while, the subway arrived. He hurriedly squeezed into the car, found an empty seat and sat down, breathing a sigh of relief.

In this way, Jisoo shouldn't be kept waiting for too long.

Otherwise, he will be dead by then.

"It's so slow! It took me so long."

Jin Jixiu was standing at the door of the gs25 convenience store, stamping her feet and waiting for Lin Nanxing.

When she saw Lin Nanxing, she wanted to punch him hard to let him know the consequences of being late.

I don't know how long it took, but Lin Nanxing finally came out of Exit 9 and saw the building where the gs25 convenience store is located.

Not far away, a girl wearing a black down jacket and a black baseball cap ran towards him, swung her fist and hit him in the abdomen.

Fortunately, the down jacket is very thick, so it doesn't really have a big impact.

"Why so slow?"

Jin Zhixiu glared at Lin Nanxing. In order to go on a date with this brat, she didn't stay at home and was actually late.

"I wrote a verse at home, so I was a little late."

Lin Nanxing said helplessly.

"I understand. I forgive you this time. Who made us good friends? Let's go in."

Jin Jixiu said that although this guy deserved a beating, she had to compromise a little in order to learn Chinese.

Moreover, this guy is my gaming partner, much more reliable than Jennie and the others.

"ok."

Lin Nanxing breathed a sigh of relief. Jin Zhixiu didn't bite him this time. It seemed to be pretty good.

The bowling alley was on the third floor, so the two of them walked up the stairs and soon arrived at the luminous bowling alley, where there were many young couples playing bowling.

After arriving on the third floor, the two paid and then walked into the bowling alley. The ambient lights inside were quite bright and there were many young couples playing bowling here.

Bowling is very common here on the peninsula, and it is also one of the activities that many couples like to play.

Renting shoes here costs 2,500 won, and socks cost about 1,000 won. The piece of paper on the counter says that socks cost 1,000 won in cash and 1,100 won by credit card.

Three rounds of bowling costs 10,000 won per person, so the total for two people is 20,000 won.

"Three rounds will take about an hour. I'll try it with 7-pound and 8-pound bowling balls first. I haven't played recently and my hands are a bit raw."

Jin Jixiu coughed.

As a homebody, she rarely goes out. She played bowling a long time ago. Although her skills are pretty good, she has forgotten a lot.

"It turns out you can't do it either."

Lin Nanxing muttered.

"Ah, what did you say? I'm the genius Jisoo! I'm very strong!"

Jin Zhixiu screamed and rushed over.

"ah!"

Lin Nanxing screamed, and his left hand was bitten again.

"Do you know you're wrong?"

Jin Jixiu relaxed her mouth.

"……I see."

Lin Nanxing smiled bitterly.

However, when he just rushed over, he seemed to feel a little soft.

Since the two of them had put their down jackets in the lockers, they were only wearing sweatshirts, so there would inevitably be some simple touches.

However, the atmosphere of this bowling alley is quite good, a bit like a club. Under the dim light, it is a little hard to see Kim Ji-soo's face.

"I came first!"

Kim Ji-soo picked up a white bowling ball and sent it out.

Unexpectedly, I got a perfect hit.

"ah?"

Lin Nanxing was a little confused.

Kim Ji Soo is too strong. Is this luck? Or is it strength?

"Yahoo, this is the power of genius Jisoo, la la la la!"

Jin Jixiu sang a strange song and rushed towards Lin Nanxing.

"Is it so powerful?"

Lin Nanxing felt that there was a living person in his arms. Fortunately, her weight was very light, so it was just right to hold her.

"Of course, now you know how good I am. If you study hard with me, you will definitely be able to fall in love."

Kim Ji Soo said.

"I told you, I'm not interested in love."

Lin Nanxing said helplessly.

However, he can learn this bowling technique.

"Don't worry, I will teach you everything."

Jin Jixiu said coolly, and then took out her mobile phone and took a picture of the score just now.

"Oh well."

Lin Nanxing nodded.

Next, he played three full games with Jin Ji-soo and learned some simple skills. He was much more proficient than when he played before.

The two of them fought like this for forty-five minutes, and both of them were a little tired.

"Hahaha, let's go buy some chicken skewers and then go home and play games."

Kim Ji Soo put her hands on her hips and smiled.

"Oh well."

Lin Nanxing thought about it for a moment, and found that besides revising the verse he had written, there seemed to be nothing else he could do.

Although he wants to make a second mixtape, it won't happen overnight and he needs to slowly find some inspiration.

Spending the past few days with Kim Ji Soo, although it was a bit dizzying, he really got a lot of inspiration.

Is it because I have experienced a completely different life than before?

"Let's go, let's go, buy chicken skewers, chicken skewers, chicken skewers, I want to eat chicken skewers."

Kim Ji Soo took out her down jacket from the locker, put it on, lowered her baseball cap, and then started singing a strange rap.

"MC Kim Ji Soo."

Lin Nanxing couldn't help but smile, and also used beatbox to accompany her.

When he joined the school's hip-hop club, he learned beatboxing for a while with a bearded senior, although it was of no use.

"kekeke, I'm still very good."

Kim Ji Soo also shook her head and sang her own random rap without rhymes, which looked quite funny.

After the two played for a while, they noticed that several couples were looking at them like fools, so they gave up.

"Let's go quickly."

Lin Nanxing couldn't afford to lose this person.

He felt that if he kept in contact with Kim Ji Soo like this, he would one day become like her.

"What are we afraid of? Aren't we wearing masks? And they don't recognize us."

Jin Zhixiu chuckled, took Lin Nanxing's hand, and suddenly sprinted out.

"..."

Lin Nanxing was pulled by Kim Jisoo and rushed from the third floor of the bowling alley to the street.

The streets were very lively with people coming and going, there were many people performing, and there were even more people watching.

On the road they were running on, the white painted words "????" (Road where entry is prohibited and vehicles are not allowed to enter)" written in Korean were already somewhat mottled, probably because they were stepped on too much.

Occasionally, you can see some small advertisements posted on telephone poles and strange graffiti on the walls.

There is a green bus parked at the subway station not far away.

This kind of green bus is called a feeder bus. It is operated independently by private bus companies. Its lines connect major subway stations and bus terminals outside the center of Seoul. They can often be seen near subway stations.

Lin Nanxing has sat on it several times before.

"Kekeke, it's so interesting. After buying the chicken skewers, let's go home and play games."

Jin Zhixiu chuckled and glanced at Lin Nanxing secretly.

I don’t know what’s going on, but when I’m with Lin Nanxing, I don’t know why I feel so happy.

"She does look pretty good."

Jin Jixiu thought in her heart.

Especially during club performances, when the aura is at its fullest, and when there are curse words in the rap, it actually looks a little cool. Is it her imagination?

However, although his lyrics contain curse words, they seem to have a lot of depth.

"Yeah, that's okay too."

Lin Nanxing didn't have any objections. He had experienced a wonderful life that he had never experienced before.

There seem to be a lot of gourmet restaurants here, and occasionally you can smell some grilled beef intestines.

Lin Nanxing had eaten with Lee Kwang Jae once before, but it was too spicy. Neither he nor Lee Kwang Jae liked spicy food very much, and they had stomachaches for a long time.

After a while, Lin Nanxing and Jin Zhixiu came to a stall selling chicken skewers. There were green onions sandwiched between the chicken skewers, which were sizzling and oily in the cold winter.

“My favorite chicken skewers!”

Jin Zhixiu's eyes lit up and her mouth watered.

"Let me treat you."

Lin Nanxing said.

He and Swervy have already negotiated the feature, and will get the money after signing the contract.

In addition, he also made some money from the two previous performances, so he doesn't have to worry about money for the time being.

"Hehe, so nice? You don't like me, do you?"

Jin Jixiu smiled.

This guy is really gentle sometimes, and he's not so stingy either.

"You're overthinking this. I'm just asking you as a good friend."

Lin Nanxing shrugged.

"Okay, then I'll treat you to a supper tonight, and I'll order it for you from a takeaway restaurant later."

Jin Zhixiu chuckled and stared at Lin Nanxing's face with narrowed eyes.

She seems to like this guy a little bit.

Of course, she doesn't know whether this kind of liking is that of a friend or another kind of liking?

Because she is also single and has never been in love.

"Then I'm welcome."

Lin Nanxing nodded.

"But I have to eat a fat-reducing meal, Axi!"

Jin Jixiu gritted her teeth and said.

Recently, Lin Nanxing and I ate too many late-night snacks, and she actually gained a little weight.

"No need, you are obviously very thin."

Lin Nanxing glanced at Jin Zhixiu and remembered the previous touches, but he didn't notice how fat she was.

"You don't understand! I can only watch you eat delicious food. Fortunately, I can still eat some chicken skewers."

Jin Jixiu said pitifully.

"this……"

Lin Nanxing didn't know what to say for a while.

"I'll just eat some of your takeout then. That should be fine."

Kim Ji-soo thought she had come up with a great method.

After packing the chicken skewers, the two entered the subway station, got on the subway, and soon arrived at Cheongdam-dong.

The nightlife in Cheongdam-dong is obviously very different from that in Hongdae, but it is also quite lively.

"Let's go to the nearby coffee shop and buy two glasses of iced Americano."

Kim Ji Soo said.

"Isn't it? It feels like the time to stay up late is coming again."

Lin Nanxing shivered.

"go, go."

Jin Zhixiu took Lin Nanxing into a nearby coffee shop. There were many people inside, some with friends and some as couples.

At the counter, Jin Zhixiu ordered two glasses of iced Americano, and then took Lin Nanxing to sit aside and wait.

After lowering the brim of her hat, she read a romance comic.

"Are you reading webtoon again? What comic is it this time?"

Lin Nanxing curiously moved his face closer, and happened to see Jin Zhixiu's fair ears, which had quite a few piercings, and there were several earrings in one ear.

"Love Revolution, the front is okay, but the back is a bit messy."

Kim Ji-soo shrugged.

"Do high school students fall in love?"

Lin Nanxing narrowed his eyes. Jin Jixiu really liked reading things about love, except that she was not in love.

"Yeah, I haven't experienced it before, so I'm just curious. Our coffee is out, kekeke, come on, play games with me."

Jin Zhixiu picked up the electronic bell, exchanged it for two glasses of iced Americano, and then handed one of them to Lin Nanxing.

"knew."

Lin Nanxing smiled bitterly.

Now he is more concerned about his staying up late than the so-called love.

Fortunately, he has no classes tomorrow, so he can stay up late.

The two came out of the coffee shop and quickly arrived at the door of their respective apartments.

"I'll go in first, come to my house later, kakaotalk will contact you, I'll go in and change into my sports clothes."

Jin Jixiu pushed up the glasses on the bridge of her nose and immediately got into her apartment.

"Starting again?"

Lin Nanxing also reluctantly walked into his apartment.

After turning on the light, I went into my room and turned on my computer. I checked the verse I had written before and found that it felt pretty good.

Moreover, Swervy also briefly told him the theme of the song, and he felt that it fit the theme very well.

However, it will still need to be compared and revised at that time, this is just a draft.

Card through!

At this time, his kakaotalk sounded.

It turned out to be a message from Kim Ji-soo.

"Come on, I've already changed my clothes, and I just drank an iced Americano, and my whole body is full of energy!"

"What you said is very strange. I understand. I'll go over now."

Lin Nanxing had no choice but to reply to the message.

However, it is really easy for me to misunderstand what Kim Ji Soo said.

He picked up his laptop, came out of the house, and rang the doorbell of Jin Zhixiu's house.

Ding dong ding dong!

"Kekeke, are you here? Are you ready for our nightlife?"

Kim Ji Soo opened the door, wearing a white sportswear and a strange bunny ears hat on her head.

"Ready."

Lin Nanxing walked in.

"The takeaway will be here soon. In addition to my fat-reducing meal, there is also your delicious midnight snack. Guess what I ordered for you?"

Jin Jixiu looked at Lin Nanxing and smiled.

"fried chicken?"

Lin Nanxing asked curiously.

After all, many peninsula people’s late-night snack choices are fried chicken.

"Of course not."

Jin Jixiu said with a smile.

"Is that potato spine soup?"

Lin Nanxing recalled the potato spine soup they had eaten before. Jin Jixiu seemed to like it very much.

"Nono, you are so stupid. Of course it is pork belly with rice! Hahaha."

Jin Jixiu laughed loudly.

It just so happens that she can secretly eat something she likes.

"It turns out it's pork belly stuffed rice. Now that I know it, I still like it."

Lin Nanxing nodded.

However, he didn't expect that Jin Jixiu liked to eat this.

"I knew you would like it because our tastes are very similar, except that you can't eat spicy food."

Jin Jixiu chuckled.

"So, now we want to play games first?"

Lin Nanxing asked helplessly.

"Yeah, come on, fight for our victory tonight!"

Jin Jixiu sat on the computer chair, first took a big sip of iced Americano, and then logged in to her account.

She is very happy now, of course, because she can eat her favorite pork belly rice dumplings, and she also had chicken skewers just now.

"ok!"

Lin Nanxing also logged in to his account.

Entered the game.

The two started the journey of "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds" again.

Just when the two of them were in the middle of the fight, the doorbell rang, probably the takeaway had arrived.

"It seems the takeaway has arrived. I'll go get it. Please help me take a look and don't let anyone attack me."

Jin Jixiu stood up, picked up the mask, put it on, and ran out quickly.
