Chapter 115: The top student’s little Desktop Pet 9 (part 2 of 2)
But Shen Tong was completely shocked still the moment that envisioned shiny white-haired scientist appeared before him.
–The other person was actually Gu Qiange?
Although that face had no less than 7 points resemblance with Han Ying, Shen Tong was still able to instantly recognize him with just a single glance. What made Shen Tong more surprised was that the other had clearly matured a lot, and seemed to be at least about 25 or 26 years old.
The dumbfounded expression on Gu Qiange’s face was even more obvious than Shen Tong. He even suspected that he was having a hallucination, that even the movements of his hands and feet halted. He couldn’t even hear what Kong Baiji, who was beside him was talking about.
–What’s going on? Did he actually fall into a trance, for him to see a real-life version of Tong Tong?
The youth before him was also looking at him with a pair of beautiful eyes. His slightly opened rosy lips, exposed a small part of his tiny soft tongue and looming pearly white teeth. This adorable and familiar dainty appearance really made Gu Qiange believe that his little guy had returned for a split second.
But he knew that this was impossible.
His little guy had disappeared for so long, so long that he had grown out from an immature senior high student to an experienced and reliable man. He had always strenuously restrained himself from constantly thinking of that little guy over the past years, stepping into the scientific research industry, and completely immersed himself into meticulously studying the virtual reality technology, just to see the other person once more.
He really missed him very much.
Time was said to be the best medicine. Had it just been a simple longing or affection, it would not have been able to last so long, and would eventually fade away with the pa.s.sage of time. But Gu Qiange’s longing and affection were mixed with remorse and unwillingness to give up on seeking this longing of his.
After the disappearance of the little guy, Gu Qiange, who failed to get him back after exhausting all means, once contacted the developer of the game company through the connections of his parents. The company really had such a smart Desktop Pet on trial, but was far less intelligent than his Tong Tong, not to mention becoming an actual index sized person and running out from the mobile phone. The developer thought that Gu Qiange was just telling a joke, so without being able to do anything, the reason for the disappearance of the Desktop Pet was attributed to the very low favorable impression.
There was indeed this setting in the program. Once the Desktop Pet’s favorable impression towards the owner was lower than 50, it will automatically uninstall. During the time of the little guy’s disappearance, Gu Qiange did see that the favorable impression in the character information interface has dropped to negative 50.
So Gu Qiange had always believed that it was his fault. If it were not for his jealousy and roughly questioning the little guy while the other was ill, then his favorability wouldn’t have decreased spontaneously, and the problem wouldn’t have emerged as well. His little guy might have been ignorant towards this matter too, nor did he have a clear understanding for the reason of his sudden disappearance. Recalling the surprise and helpless look in the other party’s eyes as he faded away, couldn’t help but make Gu Qiange be distressed.
The things in this world, are more memorable the more unattainable it is. Gu Qiange has seen all kinds of extravagance over the years, but this engraved the little guy deeper in his memories instead. He seems to have vaguely returned to that moment when the other turned into light spots and disappeared, which inevitably made Gu Qiange try to reach out at this moment, in an attempt to grab a hold of Shen Tong’s wrist.
But he was still unable to grab a hold of it.
Having just noticed something wrong, Kong Baiji immediately took a step ahead of him in time, then slightly leaned his body to the left, completely blocking half of Shen Tong’s shoulder.
This is a very standard protective stance. Even the momentum of the great bro-con, older brother had unconsciously become a bit aggressive. Perhaps he didn’t even realize this, but Gu Qiange, who could clearly perceive this, inexplicably felt a strong uncertainty fill his chest. Which immediately caused him to change his aura, his deep dark had even revealed a sense of danger and chill.
The scene grew tense for a while, but fortunately, mother Shen took a step forward and broke the deadlock: “Does Mr. Gu know Tong Tong?”
“.…..Tong Tong?” Gu Qiange momentarily paused a bit because of these two words. His gaze shifted back to Shen Tong. He then raised his brow, and stowed away the imposing momentum of his entire body, almost as if the danger and chill he exposed just a moment ago was just an illusion.
Hence, the others only saw that conceited and contemptuous genius scientist, who couldn’t accommodate anything in his eyes, unexpectedly use an unprecedentedly gentle att.i.tude and sincere tone when introducing himself to Shen Tong: “h.e.l.lo, I’m Gu Qiange.”
He even showed a smile to the youth. The smile on this kind of man, who doesn’t normally show a smile, will be very lethal. As if his body was illuminated by a spotlight, giving his handsome appearance even more depth.
The author has something to say: Gu Qiange: For the sake of how handsome this gong is, you cuties should forgive this stupid author for this shortness, ok? After all, three thousand words from the perspective of such a thousand year novice like her can’t be regarded as shortish……
