Dong dong dong — —
A series of dull knocks woke Feng Bujue from his deep sleep.
He opened his eyes and saw a familiar face through the round glass window of the gaming pod.
"What the hell?" Feng Bujue mumbled as he unlocked the gaming pod from the inside.
He opened the hatch and sat up. He looked at Ruo Yu with a puzzled expression and asked, "What are you doing?"
Ruo Yu looked at him with a strange expression. "I mean … A normal person would ask questions like 'What time is it?' or 'How did you get in?'"
"It's 3: 30 in the morning. You must have a copy of my key." Feng Bujue answered the two questions directly and added, "This kind of thing that can be figured out in two seconds, I normally don't ask …"
"As someone who just woke up, your thoughts are a bit too clear …" Ruo Yu's current attitude was indeed a bit strange. Looking at her expression, it seemed like she was throwing a tantrum, but she wasn't really angry.
"It's okay … Hah …" Brother Jue yawned and praised himself. "If the human brain is compared to a computer …" He tapped his temple with his finger. "Then my computer's startup speed is indeed faster than most people's." He paused and tilted his head to look at Ruo Yu. "Then, back to the topic … Why did you suddenly come here in the middle of the night?"
Ruo Yu hesitated for a moment as if she was thinking. After a few seconds, she looked like she was in a difficult position. She gave an answer that even she felt was a little strange. "Hmm … It seems like … it's nothing."
"Huh?" Brother Jue raised his eyebrows in response. He didn't think much of it. He just waved his hand and motioned for her to move back a little so that he could climb out of the gaming pod.
"Hah …" After climbing out of the gaming hub, Feng Bujue started to think about Ruo Yu's words and actions again. He seemed to have realized something. Instantly, a wicked smile appeared on his face and he joked, "You came even though you had nothing better to do … That means you missed me."
"I see … I missed you." Unexpectedly, Ruo Yu nodded as if she had suddenly understood, as if she had accepted this explanation.
"Hey hey …" This time, Feng Bujue's smile disappeared. He narrowed his eyes and asked with confusion, "Are you okay? When we were in the game, I felt like something was wrong with you. "
"You noticed it as well?" Ruo Yu added. "I did feel something was wrong after I left the scenario …" She crossed her arms before her chest and lowered her head with a frown. "So, I didn't wait for you. I quit the game and started to meditate …"
"So … what's the result?" Feng Bujue asked.
"Even though I can't be sure, I have a general idea …" Ruo Yu replied, "There's something wrong with the 'seal'."
"Oh?" Hearing that, many thoughts flashed through Feng Bujue's mind. "Could it be … your seal has been broken?"
"Not really." Ruo Yu shook her head. "I know for sure whether the seal has been broken or not, but … in some ways, I feel like I'm different from before." She paused for half a second and said thoughtfully, "I believe … it's because of the excessive mental stress that caused the seal to crack."
"Is that so …" Brother Jue seemed to be interested. He smiled again. "Hmm, do you have any special feelings for me now?"
"I can't explain it." Ruo Yu answered. "I just suddenly wanted to come and see you. It would be best if we could talk, but the details are not important."
There was nothing wrong with what she said. Whether it was romantic or mushy, it was just the content. However, the tone she used when she said it was the tone of a killer torturing a victim. It seemed very out of place.
"Hmm …" But when that remark fell into Brother Jue's ears, it was no doubt that it made him lose his mind. "Sure …" His expression was like he had discovered a new toy. Instantly, he pulled Ruo Yu's hand. "Come, come … Let's talk in the bedroom."
However, just as Brother Jue's hand touched Ruo Yu's, something unexpected happened!
"Why are you being so touchy?!" It was as if Rainy had suddenly entered a berserk state. She used a shout that would only explode when a Fighter dealt a fatal blow to her opponent. At the same time, she used a strange strength that was far beyond Brother Jue's reach to twist Brother Jue's arm and threw him over her shoulder to the ground.
Dong —
One breath later, Feng Bujue collapsed to the ground with his face facing the sky. His expression was like Loki, who had just been beaten up by Hulk. His throat was still making groaning noises.
"Ah! I wasn't paying attention and … "After Ruo Yu threw Brother Jue, she returned to her usual calm state. She looked down at her hands and said," Sure enough … Something must have happened to me … "
"This has reminded me once again …" Feng Bujue looked at the ceiling with his soulless eyes. The pain that came from his back and wrists could not suppress his desire to complain. "Women, what they say, what they think, and what they actually do … are usually not consistent with each other …"
"Mm … I'm sorry …" Ruo Yu was also very embarrassed. She immediately squatted down to help Brother Jue up.
Feng Bujue naturally reached out and hooked his arm around Ruo Yu's shoulder. Then …
"Ah —" Brother Jue screamed, announcing that he had been thrown to the ground by an even more vicious move.
"Eh?" This time, Ruo Yu was a little scared. "Why …" Other than confusion, there was also fear on her face. "I didn't want to …"
As she spoke, she wanted to help Brother Jue up. "Are you okay?"
"Don't come over!" When Feng Bujue saw this, he covered his head and "rolled" two meters away. He maintained a lying position and said to Ruo Yu, "Sister! I beg you, please let me live … "
"No … I …" Ruo Yu wanted to explain.
However, Feng Bujue interrupted her. "I know you didn't do it on purpose. I'll accompany you to the Ninth Section to ask your grandpa for help." He quickly finished his sentence. When he saw that Ruo Yu was no longer approaching him, he lay down and panted. "Phew … But now, you have to let me rest …"
…
Forty minutes later, Ninth Section, Chief's office.
"It's useless to ask me …" Gu Chen yawned and looked at Feng Li and Feng Bujue. "This seal wasn't created by Vincent or Woody's power. As something related to the Candidate Game, your seal was most likely created by the magic system of the Parliament … This is obviously beyond the observation and interference of the human world. In fact, if it wasn't for Woody and the others who revealed this information to Feng Bujue, even I … wouldn't have known about the seal's existence."
"No way … Even you can't do anything about it …" Feng Bujue said with a troubled expression.
"Of course." Gu Chen said. "If there was a way, how could we, the elders, ignore it? Even if I don't do anything, Little Yu's grandparents can't just ignore it."
"Grandpa, is there really no other way?" Ruo Yu continued. "With my current situation … Even my daily life will be a problem, let alone work. What if I accidentally hurt Mom, Dad, or Xiao Ling …"
"It's very simple." Gu Chen was a very reliable person. He could always give others the feeling that he had a "solution". Even if it was a Hail Mary method, he could still make it sound very reasonable. "Why don't the two of you live together again?"
"Huh?"
"Huh?"
Feng Bujue and Ruo Yu had the same reaction at this moment. Whether it was the timing of the words, the length of the word "huh", or even the pitch of their voices, they were all exactly the same.
"Little Yu, you can leave the gallery work for now." A second later, Gu Chen looked at Ruo Yu as if nothing had happened and continued, "Anyway, there isn't much work to do. Just let your dad take care of it alone. If he can't handle it, he can just hire a female secretary." He paused. "As for daily life …" He looked at Feng Bujue again, and a malicious look appeared between his eyebrows. "… Isn't it just right to have a boyfriend who can freely allocate his work time and is basically on standby all day to take care of her?"
"Why do I feel like the meaning of 'take care' in your sentence is similar to 'get beaten up' …" Feng Bujue said. "So if you hurt me … it won't be a problem, right?"
"It won't be a problem in the first place." Gu Chen replied in a matter-of-fact tone. "You two don't sleep together at night. When you're awake, just avoid physical contact as much as possible. Based on your vigilance as a great writer, if you were prepared, how could you be beaten up so easily unless you were the one who made a fool of yourself? "
Feng Bujue couldn't refute his words, because what he said made sense …
"This …" Ruo Yu muttered. "… It can be done." She thought for a moment. "But this is just a temporary measure. It still doesn't solve the problem at its root."
"Sigh ~ It's only temporary." Gu Chen said. "You said it yourself. This is probably caused by a crack in the seal. I think … this is a normal reaction when emotions that have been suppressed for many years are suddenly released. There are two sides to every emotion. Using your example … the two sides are 'a strong desire to spend more time with Feng Bujue', and 'a strong resistance and instinctive reaction to physical contact'. " He spread out his hands. "You don't have to worry too much. Humans are creatures with strong adaptability. If nothing unexpected happens, these two symptoms will slowly weaken over time and eventually reach a level similar to that of a normal person."
Speaking up to this point, Gu Chen leaned back in his chair and raised his head. "In a way, this accident might be a good thing … Because from your reaction, if your seal had really broken directly, your reaction might have been even greater."
"Hmm … That 'bigger reaction' does sound quite exciting." Feng Bujue made use of this opportunity to make fun of Gu Jun.
Gu Chen continued to ignore him and said, "Of course, I'm just speculating based on the current information and my personal thoughts. If your condition doesn't improve after a while … hmm … let's talk about it then."
"When the time comes, are you going to say … 'You two should just get married'?" Even Ruo Yu couldn't help but look at her grandfather and complain.
"Haha …" It was rare for Gu Chen to be so open with his laughter. "You are a smart kid, but your words are rather silly." He glanced at Brother Jue. "Look at Feng Bujue's face after he heard that." Look at how fascinated Feng Bujue was. "
At this moment, Feng Bujue's expression actually said, "You're f * cking kidding me."
"Hey, hey … What's so fascinating about a married life where you enter the rhythm of mixed martial arts as soon as there's physical contact?" Brother Jue's mouth twitched as he replied.
Unexpectedly, Gu Chen looked at Brother Jue in the next second and said something even more shocking, "You can tie her up."
Just as the two people across the table were stunned, he looked at Ruo Yu and said, "You can also train him to have a physique that will make him happy after being beaten."
After he finished speaking, the room was left with … only silence.
As the man who was called "Dong Ming Mountain Car God" half a century ago, Driver Gu Chen didn't easily race, but as long as he did a little bit of drifting, those young people wouldn't even be able to see his taillights.
"Alright, I'm going back to sleep. If there's nothing else, you guys can go back too." Gu Chen didn't have time to explain as he got into the GTR … Oh, no … He walked out of the office, leaving behind the two young men and woman who didn't even have time to call the police. They sat there dumbfounded … They couldn't say a word for a long time.
