Becoming a life winner from infancy

Chapter 344 274 DDD Band

Lin Mengran brought Fang You to a place on the edge of the city—an underground livehouse that was unremarkable and nearly deserted when they arrived.

"Under normal circumstances, an 11-year-old kid like you wouldn't be allowed to enter a livehouse, but there's no performance today, and the livehouse is closed. We usually practice singing here,"

Lin Mengran glanced at Fang You, who was looking around curiously, "Hey, hey, are you scared? It's not too late if you're scared now, after all, you're just a child."

Fang You raised an eyebrow slightly, "Aren't you also underage?"

"That's not important..."

Lin Mengran patted her chest, a confident smile blossoming on her face, and threw Fang You a wink, "Plus, with my mature look, I'm not much different from an 18-year-old, right?"

"..."

Fang You shook his head, offering his professional assessment, "You're still far from a real adult."

Lin Mengran shot a disdainful look, "You little brat... aren't you a bit too picky?"

Fang You followed Lin Mengran downstairs into the underground livehouse venue, and Lin Mengran unlocked the door with a key.

The livehouse seemed to be a converted underground parking garage. Since it wasn't open for business today, the interior was empty. The bar was unmanned, a small stage upfront had two speakers set up, and the beams above were covered in various air ducts and hanging tire decorations, creating an industrial vibe throughout.

"Didn't I tell them to come early today for special training? Why has no one arrived yet?"

Lin Mengran sighed helplessly, hands on her hips, as Fang You offered a reminder.

"If you call people at the last minute, they obviously won't arrive so quickly."

"What about THAT person... She lives right upstairs! It's only a two-minute walk!"

At that moment, Fang You suddenly sensed some movement behind him and swiftly stepped aside to avoid it.

"Hey!"

The twin-tailed girl who suddenly appeared behind Fang You missed her mark and her face showed a hint of regret.

"Whoa, what fast reflexes you have, little brother."

However, upon seeing Fang You's face, her disappointment quickly turned to surprise, and then to delight—

[Chen Dongdong, who has always liked little boys, has fallen for you at first sight! Emotional Energy +100]

"But... what a cute little kid!"

The girl became instantly excited, "Meng Meng, you have such an adorable little brother, why didn't you ever tell me!"

"This isn't... How does this 1.7-meter-tall kid relate to being cute?"

"But still, his chubby cheeks, chubby cheeks are cute!"

"Little brother, what's your name, do you have a girlfriend, would you like for me to be your girlfriend?"

"I'm under 14 years old, a primary school student."

Dong Dong is indeed an exception.

She really likes little brothers, but since her family couldn't afford a second child, they never had one, so she just watched the shows to satisfy her craving.

"You said you were bringing a little brother to see our practice, I knew Dong Dong would arrive faster than us..."

At that moment, two girls with bob haircuts arrived.

"These two are bass players, Dian Dian and Duo Duo, they're fraternal twins, Dian Dian is the brother, Duo Duo is the sister, they live in the apartment upstairs. This place is rented out to others by their family, so we usually get to practice here, and they normally perform here, too. The business, well, it's just so-so..."

Although they're siblings, they look quite similar...

Both have bob hairstyles.

"Can't tell us apart? Just remember this: the one who usually does the talking is my sister, Duo Duo. My brother isn't much of a talker."

As Duo Duo spoke, Dian Dian was nodding continuously beside her.

He seemed to be a quiet, introverted boy.

Fang You furrowed his brows in confusion, "Speaking of which, why do you have two bass players in your band?"

Duo Duo spoke frankly, "Because it's easier to get by as a bass player, no one can tell if you make a mistake."

...

She then explained, "However, my brother does occasionally double as the lead singer."

"Double as the lead singer?"

"Correct, after all, Meng Meng is still in high school, sometimes she can't make it to the performances, so my brother steps in."

At this point, Fang You turned to Lin Mengran: "...So you're the newbie? I thought you were the band leader."

Lin Mengran's face turned red, "I am the band leader, and they're not as old as you think, we went to the same middle school!"

"Actually, it's just Meng Meng who is still in high school, the rest of us have already started working!"

Dong Dong took over the conversation and waved her hand, "After all, we're completely hopeless at studying, couldn't get into a regular high school, vocational school seemed pointless, just a waste of time. Better to dive into music right away!"

"Why are you explaining so much to a kid? Does he even understand?" Duo Duo scratched her ear.

"Youyou isn't just any kid, ah! He definitely knows what we're talking about, right Youyou?"

"Hmm..."

So... this means a group of good friends who have known each other since middle school formed a band...

It feels like a very cherry-blossom-esque plot development, but with a bit of a twist.

"Alright, enough talking."

Lin Mengran hadn't forgotten the main point, she clenched her fists to motivate her teammates, "This little brother said he's very interested in our band, so everyone, please do me a favor today and let him truly witness the strength of our band!"
