Chapter 12
The twelfth article(1) of “The Bible of Love”:
If a lover chooses to lie because he or she loves you too much, this may leave you in a dilemma about whether or not to forgive them. I think that you should make the decision based on their looks, as it is the most important thing. (Question answered by teacher L #2)
Chen Zi was in a very good mood today.
The wrongdoer actually came up to his door and was beaten. It was really a beautiful thing that someone sent a pillow when he wanted to sleep.
"Happy, my ass." The person next to him was scolding him, "I told you we have a plant to catch, don’t be late, and you were still talking about playing another game. Now look, you have to buy another ticket."
Chen Zi said, "It's not my fault, I counted the time, it would have been enough on normal days. How would I have known that there would be traffic jams? Don't be afraid, I have plenty of money."
"Yeah right. You used all your performance fee to buy gold chains, and made them add diamonds on it." The more his friend thought about it, the angrier he got, Chen Zi really must have had water in his head, "It’s all your fault. They told you that pure gold is too soft, and not suitable for diamonds. But you didn't listen, you wanted to show him the pure gold chain. In the end, did he look?"
"He saw my superior basketball skills." Chen Zi said, "That's enough."
His friend almost spewed out a mouthful of water, "You're really fucking ......"
It's really like the kind of idiot that goes to grab people's braids in order to attract the attention of the girl they like. Of course Chen Zi is still different, he will only plant bombs next to others to attract attention.
"You haven't told him yet, huh?" Another person asked, "And I'm asking you, please, stop using our official blog to dislike Deer Mountain, okay? We bumped into their people yesterday after the show, they saw us and hid three feet away. We don’t kill people!"
"Yeah, our company’s reputation for peace and love is gone because of you." Some people echoed.
In fact, at first, they were happy to watch Chen Zi make trouble, after all, in their opinion, it was indeed Xu Ou who bullied people in the first place. When Chen Zi came into their company, he said that he began to listen to hip hop in middle school, and the first thing he listened to was Xu Ou's diss track. That year, when he heard that the battle competition was hosted by Xu Ou, he had to go. He did become the winner, but as soon as he got off the stage, before he even got to talk to his idol, he was pointed at and scolded by Xu Ou, causing him huge psychological damage. That’s why they initially agreed to be enemies with Deer Mountain. But it has been three years, and now the people in Flying Eagle only suspect that Chen Zi is a little perverted.
Chen Zi does not show the slightest remorse, "I simply do not give a damn about him anymore! I'm much better than him now!"
"Can we expel him?" Someone was asking.
"No, he is the most popular now. If we fire him, we will have less than half of the performance. As of now, there’s already a lot of people who only want him to go," the person who spoke did not avoid Chen Zi. Anyway, he won’t really be fired, it’s just to make fun of Chen Zi, "bear with it, most companies have people who are mentally ill, so learn to be tolerant, there are even homosexuals in Deer mountain."
But Chen Zi sat up, "Who? Who is homosexual?"
"Lu Ming." The person was puzzled, "Can you be more aware of current affairs?"
Oh, it's the same Lu Ming who can’t make songs. Chen Zi remembered that he also opened separate account to private message Lu Ming, telling him not make the producer watermark so obvious, it’s annoying to listen to. But Lu Ming was very disrespectful, he blacklisted him and also let Xu Ou retweet Lu Ming's microblog.
Xu Ou is really a tasteless idiot. No wonder he's not as popular.
"Our company should have a gay quota," said another person, "I thought there were a lot of gays in cities C and D, we can't lose to Deer Mountain."
"We probably already have someone who is gay," another person said.
The gay guy didn't seem to have found out about it yet, and he probably wouldn't admit it even if they told him now. Would have been great if he found out the truth sooner rather than cursing the organizers to the point of almost suing them.
Lu Ming woke up with a start, Xu Ou had finished losing and took them out for a late night snack.
"How's your song?" Lu Ming suddenly remembered and asked Bing Bing, "How come all of a sudden you're saying you're not satisfied with it and not sending it out?"
Bing Bing is a bit distressed: "I think I’m having a creative block, nothing sounds good. I watched an interview with a rapper the other day, and he was also saying that the hip hop circle is too fickle now. And everyone is following the trend, not knowing how to write about their own stuff."
"It's okay to write about your own life," Lu Ming was pouring himself a drink, "It’s not like you don’t have a life. Write things like ‘everyone who advised me not to smoke are dead’, or ‘I went out today without wearing cotton wool pants and was blown into cerebral palsy by the wind’ ......"
Lu Ming also recorded songs before, but then gave up, there was not even a splash. He was also not too satisfied, always feeling that he was lacking emotions. He could even sing about eating bowls of rice. Indeed, as the listeners say, he was like a happy retard.
Bing Bing was thinking, then he saw Lu Ming answer the phone. Lu Ming's tone changed, and said to the phone, "I'm in a large food stall eating late night snacks. It’s not far, I'll be back soon, you don't have to come over."
It sounded a lot like he was being checked up on, not to mention that as soon as Lu Ming put down the phone, he said, "I'm leaving first."
The others are not too happy, "Lu Ming what's wrong with you? You’re going back earlier now that you’re divorced. You gay people really recover fast from a relationship, it's only been a few days and you’ve already found a new love."
Bing Bing vaguely feels that this is not the case, and indeed Lu Ming's face reddened and began to argue, "Fuck you, what new love, I am ......"
Lu Ming suddenly realized again that the truth of the situation is not much better, so his voice gradually weakened, "I haven’t moved out yet, that was my ex-husband."
"Then why does he still care about you? And why are you still speaking to him?" Xu Ou is a little impatient, "I thought it was strange when he came to pick you up after the music festival. Didn’t you say you were moving out the other day?"
"But, I slept with him yesterday." Lu Ming said, "I was going to make it the last time before we break up, but was it not a good idea?"
Lu Ming was consulting his group of straight friends with a sincere face.
Bing Bing was holding his forehead, he thinks he knows now what to write for a new song that was close to life and interesting.

1-The original text does not have articles 12 and 13, but the author posted them on weibo. She said that they will be in the published book and will be added to the online version, but as of today, the articles have not been added. So, I’m just assuming that they belong in chapters 12 and 13.

I, for one, would be thoroughly interested in hearing this adapted into a rap
