152. Entering the House
He hadn't been online for three years and hadn't seen Glutinous Rice Ball. It wasn't that He Jin didn't miss it. Although it was just a virtual baby in the game, it was very strange. Every time he thought of Glutinous Rice Ball's cries and how Glutinous Rice Ball called him "Daddy" before leaving the game, He Jin felt sad.
"Are you still online?" He Jin couldn't help but ask Qin Yang.
Qin Yang remembered that He Jin didn't even take the game helmet with him when he left and complained, "You're not playing. Why should I go online? Am I going to be alone?" In fact, Qin Yang didn't have much time. Moreover, the two of them stared at each other as soon as they went online. It was sad.
He Jin stammered, "… Don't you still have Glutinous Rice Ball to accompany you?"
Qin Yang was angry when he thought of this. "Do you think you can shirk your responsibility by saying those things to Glutinous Rice Ball before you left? You're abandoning me after you've started! "
He Jin: "…!" Qin Yang knew what he said to Glutinous Rice Ball? Orz..
As if he knew what He Jin was thinking, Qin Yang snorted. "Don't you know that Glutinous Rice Ball has a recording function?"
"I, I didn't know …" He Jin felt very guilty. After thinking about it, he could only apologize again. "I'm sorry."
Qin Yang sighed. "Forget it. I won't argue with you about the past. Remember to personally compensate me in the future."
He Jin: "I'll take over your company. Send me the specific situation and information of the company. I'll understand it in the next two days."
Qin Yang was finally a little happier. "No rush. You should take advantage of these few days to rest and stay at home with your parents. You'll be busy in the future."
He Jin asked Qin Yang about his friends in the game. It was said that everyone was still playing. However, ever since the God and Devil was holographic, new players kept coming in. Just as Qin Yang predicted, there was a group of professional players who specialized in the official team competition that was held twice a year. Qin Yang had been busy with work for the past three years. The top few positions on the leaderboard had long changed. Shang Huo, Shishui, and the others were already "legendary" figures.
"Everyone is now a life player. They farm, run dungeons, and grind achievements. God and Devil leveled up again not long ago and allowed same-sex marriage. They also relaxed the restrictions on babies. Now, as long as a player is married for three years, they can have eggs. Wild Crane is also pregnant … Oh right, Shishui and Jiu are married.
"Pfft!" He Jin almost spat out a mouthful of blood. "They're together too?"
Qin Yang laughed out loud. "How is that possible? They're just stimulated by how loafers show off their love every day. At the same time, they're a little curious about the same-sex marriage system. They're probably just trying it out and will divorce soon."
He Jin: "…"
Qin Yang: "You can ask them about the details when you go online. They miss you and often ask me when you will be back."
After hanging up the phone, He Jin sighed with emotion. While he was escaping from this world, the world didn't stop changing.
Carrying the cardboard box home, Mother He said in surprise, "Why are you back so early today?"
He Jin put on an obedient look as if he was ready to be scolded. "I quit."
Mrs. He took a step back, her face pale and then blue. A few seconds later, a heart-wrenching cry came from the He family, "He — Jin!"
…
He Jin stood silently in the kitchen helping his mother peel the garlic. His mother raised the kitchen knife and chopped the pork on the chopping board. Hearing the frightening sound of chopping meat, He Jin couldn't help but shrink his neck.
For the three days after he quit, He Jin stayed at home. He woke up on time and went to bed on time. He even helped his mother with the housework. His mother didn't scold him or hit him, but the anger on her face didn't disappear. He Jin felt that his mother probably wanted to chop the pork on the chopping board.
"Go buy a bag of cooking wine!" Mother He glared fiercely at her son, who was in a daze after peeling the garlic.
"Oh!" He Jin quickly stood up, wiped his hands, took his wallet and keys, and went downstairs.
As soon as he went out, He Jin heaved a sigh of relief. The atmosphere at home was too depressing. He ran downstairs and looked down at his wristband. He was about to take this opportunity to call Qin Yang when a gust of wind suddenly attacked him and he was hugged!
He Jin exclaimed and widened his eyes when he saw who it was. "Qin Yang?"
Qin Yang was wearing sunglasses and had an evil smile on his face. He hugged He Jin and spun around. He hugged his head and kissed him. He Jin's brain was numb. He instinctively hugged him back. Their lips and tongues intertwined as he responded to Qin Yang's kiss.
After kissing for a few seconds, He Jin finally reacted. He hurriedly broke free and looked around nervously. This was downstairs from his house. The people living in this area were old-fashioned people about the same age as his parents. If the neighbors in the community saw them, his parents wouldn't be able to live here in the future!
"Why are you here?" He Jin stared at Qin Yang with indescribable joy in his eyes. "Why didn't you tell me that you were here?"
"I gave you a surprise." Qin Yang hugged him and didn't let go. He stretched his neck like a bird and leaned against He Jin's face. "I missed you. Did you miss me?"
He Jin paid attention to his surroundings while looking at Qin Yang with sparkling eyes. "I missed you."
Qin Yang buried his face in his neck and kissed his scent. Three weeks of not seeing him felt like three years. "Why do you smell like garlic?" Qin Yang frowned slightly. Even though it smelled bad, he couldn't bear to let go of him.
"I was just helping my mom peel garlic." He Jin suddenly remembered his mission. "Ah! I want to buy cooking wine! You, you're here now. What should I do … "
"What else can I do? I just wanted to see you. I was just about to call you to come down, and you appeared … You won't let me into your house. I'll stay in the car and sleep later." Qin Yang seemed to be complaining.
He Jin looked at him and struggled for a moment before saying, "Why don't you come up with me to eat?"
Qin Yang's eyes suddenly lit up. "Really?"
He Jin tilted his head. "But I don't know if my mom will kick you out."
Qin Yang was so excited that his entire body was glowing. He hugged He Jin and walked up. "We'll deal with it when it comes. We'll talk about it after I get kicked out!"
He Jin pulled him. "Wait, wait! I still want to buy cooking wine! Come with me to buy cooking wine! "
Qin Yang said, "… That's fine. We can buy some things while we're at it. It's not good to go upstairs empty-handed."
The two of them arrived at a nearby supermarket. Qin Yang was wearing a hat, sunglasses, and a scarf, but he was still too eye-catching. After living as a celebrity for three years, his entire temperament had been tempered to the point that he was different from ordinary people.
He Jin did not dare to get too close to him, so he went to the seasoning section to buy a bottle of cooking wine. Qin Yang picked through the gift section, but there was nothing that caught his eye. When he saw He Jin coming over, he asked, "What does your mom like?"
He Jin thought that even if Qin Yang gave him a mountain of gold and silver, his mom would not like it. However, he did not dare to pour cold water on him. Instead, he joked, "Just buy whatever you want. It's not like we're proposing."
Qin Yang pursed his lips and picked up the most expensive box. It was called bird's nest protein beauty care products. Then, he snatched the cooking wine from He Jin's arms and went to pay the bill.
He Jin followed behind him. His heart was beating faster and faster. At this moment, he suddenly felt uneasy, as if he was bringing his "boyfriend" home.
After leaving the supermarket, He Jin asked, "How are you going to compensate my dad?"
"Didn't you say that your dad likes to smoke?" Qin Yang pointed to his MINI SUV parked outside He Jin's neighborhood. "I happen to have two cartons of good cigarettes in my car. They were given to me by a local event organizer the last time I came to the event."
"This car … Did you just buy it?" The last time he sat in the car, he noticed that it smelled new.
Qin Yang glanced at him and smiled. "I thought I would have to fight a protracted battle with you in Q City, so I bought a car so that it would be easier to catch you."
He Jin: "…" Are you sure it's not convenient to do that in the car?
Qin Yang: "I didn't expect you to agree to come with me so quickly. Hehe, I haven't thought about what to do with this car. Do your parents know how to drive? Why don't we leave it at your house? You can drive it when you come back."
"My parents don't know how to drive." He Jin had gotten his driver's license the year before, but Mother He insisted that she buy a car for the first two years, so he hadn't had the chance to practice until now. Hearing Qin Yang's words, He Jin felt a little complicated. This car could be considered Qin Yang's "dowry."
"What are you laughing at?" Qin Yang saw that He Jin was holding back his laughter. Since they were on the street, he didn't dare to be too presumptuous and kiss him directly, so he reached out and pinched He Jin's face.
He Jin: "…"
Qin Yang took two cartons of cigarettes from the car. One was Zhongnanhai, one was Marlboro, and a few packs of loose iron-shell panda cigarettes. He stacked them with the bird's nest gift box and followed He Jin to his house.
Mother He waited anxiously at home.
He Jin bought a pack of cooking wine for half an hour. Mother He was already waiting anxiously at home. When she heard the door open, she walked out of the kitchen with a fierce expression. She wanted to scold him to vent her anger, but she didn't expect that when He Jin came in, an unfamiliar young man half a head taller than him followed behind him!
"Mom …" He Jin called out weakly. He acted first and led Qin Yang into the house. He took the things he was carrying and placed them on the table. Papa He stood up from the sofa, dumbfounded. "This is?"
Qin Yang took off his sunglasses and hat, revealing his exquisite and handsome facial features. His deep eyes swept over He Jin's parents without avoiding them. Then he said respectfully, "Dad, Mom."
The three members of the He family: "…"
He Jin pinched him and chided him in a low voice awkwardly, "Hey, what are you calling me?"
God knew that this "Dad, Mom" was a "fatal blow" to He Jin's parents, who had lost a son!
Mother He swayed and looked dazed. She almost fainted. He Jin felt that his mother's heart must be breaking down at that moment …
Father He also froze on the spot. The wrinkles on his face loosened and tightened.
Qin Yang looked at Father He, who was easier to deal with. He pointed to the cigarettes on the table and said, "Dad, I heard from He Jin that you like to smoke. I came in a hurry and didn't prepare anything. Don't mind. I'll prepare something better for you next time."
Father He looked at the cigarettes on the table. It was as if he had seen a table full of shining gold. The skin on his cheekbones slowly turned red, and the corners of his mouth curled up. He nodded slightly and patted the sofa. "Sit."
He Jin and Mother He: "…"
Qin Yang clenched his fists and thought to himself, "Yes." Done. Three against one!
He Jin looked at his father, who had been bribed by two packs of cigarettes. He was speechless.
Qin Yang looked at Mother He again. Mother He subconsciously took a step back. She was still sizing up this handsome young man who looked like he had walked out of a movie. Qin Yang took a step forward, and Mother He took another step back. She seemed to be shocked and didn't know how to react for a moment.
"Mom …" Qin Yang put on a smile and called out affectionately. He didn't believe that his face, which could almost charm women between 18 and 80 years old, couldn't charm He Jin's mother.
