Midsummer Part 37

  The heat wave in City B has lasted for several days, and even at dusk, the temperature hasn't dropped a bit.

  The meeting lasted until six o'clock before dispersing, and after the meeting, Yu Gong followed Xiao Nai to the office, planning to find an excuse to mix and eat dinner. Sitting down on the sofa in a casual manner, Yu Gong opened his mouth and said something improper: "I say, you and our department flower are separated like this?"

  Xiao Nai walked behind the office desk, slightly bent over, and tapped his fingers on the keyboard, "Name not correct, words not smooth, experience is shallow, what do you think I should do?"

  Listen! Listen! Listen!

  What words! What tone!

  You're having a bad day too!

  Yu Gong was delighted, and he secretly felt pleased, but he was extremely cautious not to let this emotion show, the guy in front of him was very clever, and he still owed people several hundred yuan.

  "Alas, this matter is quite sad." Yu Gong put on a sympathetic expression and was about to say "We're both drifters in the same boat, why not have dinner together", but saw Xiao Nai shut down her computer with an air of wanting to leave, causing Yu Gong to be shocked and lose his composure.

  "Is this meeting going to end today?"

  "Uh-huh."

  "What's wrong?"

  "Get married and have children."

  At the same time in W City, it was pouring rain. In a spacious and luxurious villa study, Weiwei was explaining middle school geometry problems to a young boy.

  "First connect the diagonals, then draw an auxiliary line on this side, and we can get these equations... Then substitute into the formula... Solve, like this... Understand?"

  The little boy shook his head, on the verge of tears, and stared at Weiwei with a confused expression.

  "Uh, never mind, let's start again."

  Last week, Weiwei returned home and hadn't even had a chance to warm up with her parents when she was sent away by her father to be a tutor for the son of his factory's leader. At the same time, he also rejected Weiwei's request to buy a mobile phone, saying "You can use the money you earn from tutoring to buy one later."

  Even thinking about it now can't help but bring a heart-wrenching tear, I wish I hadn't handed in the scholarship back then. Fortunately, this child is very obedient and not difficult to teach.

  After changing his way of speaking, the little boy finally understood. He explained two more questions to him, and the rain stopped, so he hurriedly bid farewell and went out.

  After the storm, the sun still stubbornly poked out its head, only with much weakened power. The air was filled with the refreshing coolness unique to after-rain. Facing the cool evening breeze, I gently pedaled my bicycle, wearing a green straw hat, passing through winding streets, hurrying quickly back home.

  There's something very important to be done today.

  Back home, after finishing dinner and washing the dishes, it was almost seven o'clock. Weiwei briefly greeted her parents before retreating into her bedroom. She put on her headphones, opened her computer, logged in to the game, and found that Da Shen was already online.

  "Hey, how long have you been up here? It's raining heavily today and I'm running late."

  Weiwei is using voice chat.

  In the past, I was afraid of disturbing my roommates in the dormitory, so I basically communicated by typing. Now that I'm at home, it's different, and I can do whatever is convenient for me. Anyway, her room and her parents' room are separated by the living room, and once the door is locked, they won't hear anything.

  "Just got on."

  "Oh, getting married now?"

  What Weiwei said about getting married is of course not referring to them two, but rather to the old tiger gods.

  These days, Weiwei has been busy with either tutoring or upgrading her pets. Although pets can get married at level 30, the attributes and skills of both parties during the wedding may affect the quality of their offspring. So Weiwei always trains her pets to full level before marrying them off to Dashen's little tiger.

  Pet marriage is simple, just go to the Beast God to get a blessing, but the wedding chamber is more troublesome.

  First of all, there must be a new house.

  Pets also have dignity, and XXOO under the bright sky is not done, so players need to build new houses for them in their own homes. In recent days, Weiwei and Xiaonai divided their work, with Weiwei taking Baby to level up, while Xiaonai was responsible for buying bricks to build a house.

  Secondly, it should be at night, after 8 o'clock.

  Still the same old saying, pets also have dignity, no way to do it in broad daylight, everything has to be done secretly under the cover of night.

  Now that these two conditions have been met, the bridal chamber can be opened.

  Weiwei and Naihe took their pets to get married, and at eight o'clock, they sent them into the bridal chamber.

  According to players on the forum, the pets' wedding scene is quite indecent, with the house shaking constantly and pink hearts continuously emerging from the roof.

  However, Weiwei didn't have the chance to see such a scene, because just as she had locked up her pets, the system reminded her -

  "Sorry, your pet is less than 150 hours old and is considered a minor, it cannot perform XX behavior."

  ……

  Can this game be any more perverted? We've reached the level of marriage, yet we can't even consummate it? The system has once again refreshed its shamelessness!

  Stunned for a moment, he asked Xiao Nai: "Dream Journey 2 won't be so perverted, will it?"

  "I won't."

  Shouhei immediately denied it, and after a few seconds, slowly said, "This level..."

  Only silence remains.

  Fall silent again.

  The sound of familiar footsteps came from the door, and he whispered "My mom is coming", quickly taking off his headphones and pretending to browse the internet.

  Mom Bai pushed the door open and came in, holding her hand directly to Weiwei's face and wiping it while muttering: "Girls should learn computer skills, I heard that looking at computers for a long time will make your face square, radiation is also bad for the skin, before going online you must apply more skincare products..."

  She had long been used to it and didn't resist at all, letting her pinch her face, arguing in her mouth: "Then mom, don't let me wash the dishes, dish soap is not good for my skin."

  Mom said: "Either you wash the dishes."

  Bei's family has a clear division of labor when it comes to cooking, Bei's mom is in charge of washing vegetables, Bei's dad is the head chef, and Weiwei is in charge of washing dishes. But Weiwei really dislikes washing dishes, however washing vegetables...

  I'd better wash the dishes then.

  Mom Bai refuted her daughter's unreasonable request, feeling pleased with herself, and after applying the night cream, she walked out with a sense of satisfaction. However, just as she was about to close the door, she faintly heard: "Mom, watch less TV, it's also square."

  Weiwei put her headphones back on, and Da Shen was silent for a moment before Weiwei asked: "What are you doing?"

  "Study dishwashers."

  “……”

  Xiao Nai added: "I also don't like washing dishes."

  "...you eavesdropped on our conversation."

  "Hmm, I don't mind listening openly and honestly."

  "...the buds of revolution will be strangled if exposed too early."

  Weiwei didn't tell her parents about Xiaonai, not to mention that her father would oppose her university romance, and even if she told her mother, with her ability to dig up the roots and ask questions, and her instinct to show off, it's estimated that within three days, all relatives would know that she had a boyfriend.

  Xiao Nai corrected her: "Méi Méi, sprouts need photosynthesis, and bean sprouts don't see light."

  It's so cold. The great god is indeed a great god, and the cold joke is also at the divine level, making people feel cool on a hot summer day.

  "You must not have turned on the air conditioner?"

  Okay, she's also cold...

  Weiwei stopped talking to him: "I'll take Hua Ze to kill some time, you go ahead with your stuff."

  "Uh-huh."

  These days are like this, wearing headphones, thinking about saying a few words, not wanting to say anything, each doing their own thing, he's writing programs over there, and I'm upgrading pets on WeChat, watching movies and stuff, occasionally looking at the programming books brought back.

  Sometimes half an hour of silence won't make you feel awkward at all.

  Er Xi despises their way of communication, saying that they are messing around and still not having fun in online games. At least they should go to a place with beautiful scenery for tourism or something like that.

  Weiwei was quite unconvinced. What's wrong with online gaming? It has mountains, rivers, and great gods. Isn't it just like a divine and romantic world?

  And it saves phone bills too >o

  Listening to the great rhythm and light typing sound, slightly accompanied by a tiger leisurely strolling in the game.

  It turns out that the great god is also very hardworking, often writing programs or planning until late at night. In fact, making a web game, if you just go with the flow, it would be easy, and there's no need for someone like Xiao Nai to take action, he just needs to divide the modules, assign tasks to others, and that's it. But if the goal is innovation, he has to spend a lot of effort writing new engines, rewriting main programs, and rebuilding frameworks.

  Perhaps, what we call genius is merely the result of a more intense and prolonged effort than others are willing to put forth.

  After playing the game for a while, Ba Dad cooked a pot of small wontons and called Weiwei out to eat. Weiwei ate until her belly was full under the painful gaze of her mother, then went back to her bedroom, where she bragged about her father's cooking skills to Da Shen, and casually asked what Xiao Nai had for dinner that night.

  The great god replied: "I forgot, but I'm a bit hungry now."

  Weiwei was just about to tell him to go find something to eat, but then remembered that Da Shen's parents had gone to some ruins to dig for things and now he was the only one at home.

  She thought for a moment, quietly opened the bedroom door and took a look, saw no one in the living room, so she sneaked in, picked up the phone and made a long-distance call. A while later, she snuck back and asked Xiao Nai: "Do you have some spare change?"

  The sound of the keyboard remained unchanged, someone was multitasking, "Huh?"

  "It's nothing."

  After about half an hour, Xiao Nai said: "Someone is knocking on the door, I'll go and see."

  A faint smile on her face.

  After another ten minutes or so, the sound of a headset being picked up came from over there.

  "Is it your takeout?"

  "Yes, this beef noodle is quite good." Slightly satisfied, "How come you've been gone for so long?"

  "No small change, went next door to borrow some."

  Sweating slightly.

  Xiao Nai smiled slightly, "Do you know who lives next door to me?"

  "...it can't be the principal, right?"

  "Our department head."

  ……

  ……

  The fragmented and aimless chat continued until eleven o'clock, when I was finally sent to bed by my mom who had just finished watching TV. However, I couldn't fall asleep for half a day after lying in bed, so I got up again.

  In the quiet night, under the starry sky, leaning slightly on the window, humming a soft tune, and taking a glance at the moon.

  This is just an ordinary day in midsummer, and even that full satisfaction and happiness are due to the triviality and ordinariness.

  At the end of the month, Da Shen Ye and Wei Wei Niang finally welcomed the birth of Little Tiger. However, this little tiger was born with congenital defects and had extremely poor attributes. Although it's not certain that a divine beast will give birth to another divine beast, it's rare for one to be this bad. I suppose this is what they mean by "things will reverse when they reach an extreme".

  Many players who gave birth to trash babies would directly throw them away, but Weiwei couldn't bear to do so. After finding many spiritual elixirs and medicines, she managed to salvage her baby's attributes a bit.

  After a few more days, Weimei's part-time job had lasted for a month. Because of running around every day and getting a bit tanned, Weimei received 2,000 yuan in salary, and immediately ran out to buy a mobile phone.

  Buying mobile phones online is very efficient.

  The brand doesn't need to be chosen, it's the one from Dashen.

  Model is not optional, also his.

  The color is silver white for Da Shen, so she had no choice but to use pink.

  Hmm, she absolutely didn't mean to get a couple's phone! It's just... trusting the great god of insight ^_^

  On the way home, Weiwei kept thinking about what message to send to Dashen, this was her new phone's first message after all, it had to be meaningful.

  When I got home, I suddenly had an idea and sent a message:

  "Kwong Shing Group 20th Anniversary, sincerely rewarding the society, holding a lucky draw event. Your number has been drawn as third prize winner, the prize is one laptop computer. After paying tax and handling fee of RMB1,000, we will courier the prize to you."

  This kind of brain-damaged scam message, every time I receive one, I have to recite it in the dormitory. After listening to it many times, even if I'm beaten up, I don't need to think with my brain. In order to make it more realistic, I even took out my own bank card and copied the account number onto it.

  After finishing the text message, she read it twice and sent it out with a slight sense of satisfaction. Heh heh, the big shot will definitely delete this text message as spam, and when I tell him tonight that it was her who sent it, his reaction will definitely be very interesting.

  He thought no one would reply to this kind of message, so he sent the text and went to eat. While eating, he was thinking about how to scold him when they meet later - I sent you a text and you actually ignored me!

  Just thinking about it makes me feel happy.

  Just as she was eating, her mobile phone suddenly rang with a message. Her phone number hadn't been widely announced yet, so who could be sending her a message? She went to take a look with some curiosity.

  Sender: 777795559

  What's this?

  Open.

  "Hello! Xiao Nai has transferred 1000 yuan to your card ending in XXXX through X Bank's online banking. Remarks: None."

  A bit stunned.

  Without noticing her parents' surprised gaze, Weiwei quickly grabbed her phone and retreated to her room to make a call. The call was answered quickly, and Weiwei's first words were: "How could you really transfer the money? Are you kidding me?"

  Weiwei is really annoying to death.

  "That's why Shao Nai smiled and said slowly: 'I knew you were deceiving me.'"

  She was slightly startled by his words and couldn't speak for a moment, it wasn't until after a while that she asked: "How did you know it was me?"

  "I checked the phone's location and it just so happens to be in the same city as you."

  Uh...

  "Do you check the address every time you receive a scam message?"

  What kind of hobby is this?

  "Not really, it's just that the bank account number you provided looks familiar, so I checked. Your trick didn't work, and the remittance doesn't even include the account holder's name."

  Xiao Nai had plenty of leisure time to instruct her.

  I was slightly surprised. It turned out that the flaw was here, but that card had only been used once at school to withdraw money, and I had taken it out in front of him just that one time, yet he still remembered?

  I've really lost to him!

  "You know it was me who remitted the money..."

  "Buy tickets."

  She was slightly stunned.

  On the other end of the phone, in B City, in the office, Xiao Nai leaned back in his chair, his gaze fell on a pot of blooming cactus. Looking at the tender yellow flowers, Xiao Nai's eyes softened.

  "The faint scent of flowers on a foreign path, but slowly returning home."

  ————————————————

  This time I really have to stop updating TT, thank you to friends online and on mobile who accompanied me along the way ^_^

  The author has something to say: The flowers are blooming on the roadside, but they will slowly return.

  In plain language, madam, you've been at your parents' home for long enough, it's time to come back.

  So, next chapter is about secretly going back without telling a certain someone ~~

  Poor Little Daddy and Mommy~~~

  Many classmates asked when the book will be released. I recently signed with "June is not over, it's better to hang on the southeast branch", so if there is no me on the southeast branch at the end of June, then July may be able to come out.

  I'm not feeling well today, but since it's the two-year anniversary of the official website, I still managed to update it. If there are any mistakes or typos, please let me know and I'll fix them later.
