The strategy was almost successful!

"What are you doing standing here?"

Liao Ruming frowned, didn't mention the awkward kiss, just looked at Ji Zhihuai.

"I want to wait for you to come out." Ji Zhihuai whispered, "...you seem to be different from before."

In the past, Liao Ruming would not be so irritable, not so easy to get angry, not so... Ji Zhihuai didn't know how to describe it.But sometimes Liao Ruming in the past would make him feel...untouchable.

That kind of tenderness, thoughtfulness, and intimacy, with a bit of a pretense of being playful.Ji Zhihuai didn't feel this way before, but when compared with the angry Liao Ruming now, it became very obvious.

But now Liao Ruming seemed to be much more alive.

But just now, Liao Ruming was leaving him.

Is it because of the matter of "leaving" that released Liao Ruming's nature?

There was a trace of bitterness in Ji Zhihuai's eyes.He was stuck on Liao Ruming's only way, harboring certain unattainable delusions, but even he himself knew that it might just be a fantasy.

... He didn't want Liao Ruming to leave him.

But he didn't even understand why Liao Ruming left him.

Liao Ruming angrily pushed Ji Zhihuai away and walked out.He is different from before?It's really different, because he doesn't like Ji Zhihuai, a doggy man anymore!

Ji Zhihuai chased after him, barely stopping Liao Ruming when he rushed to the door.

Ji Zhihuai's voice seemed to be a little hoarse, as if he was about to cry, but no one seemed to have seen Ji Zhihuai's tears.Perhaps this indifferent man never cried.

Ji Zhihuai said, "Are we breaking up like this?"

Liao Ruming's eyes widened in astonishment.He said, "Do you think we've been together?"

Ji Zhihuai was startled, and looked at him blankly and confused.

"Let me tell you Ji Zhihuai, I don't need a boyfriend who lives with me and sleeps in two beds." Liao Ruming said through gritted teeth, "I'm rather vulgar, can I?"

"I...I'm not..." Ji Zhihuai blushed, and quickly explained, "I didn't intend to reject you. I just...I just..."

Liao Ruming continued to listen impatiently: "But things have already happened."

Ji Zhihuai fell silent for a while.

Liao Ruming also calmed down slowly, and he said: "Just treat it as if we broke up, Ji Zhihuai. I won't take anything away, you can throw it away or sell it, it's up to you. I'm leaving, goodbye .”

Ji Zhihuai looked at him, as if there was a tremor in his eyes.

At this moment, Liao Ruming thought that Ji Zhihuai was in love with him, but then he went to see Ji Zhihuai again, but he seemed to be exactly the same as the indifferent Ji Zhihuai.

He suddenly thought of Ji Zhihuai's voice.

He still couldn't help but reminded him: "Remember to drink warm water and take medicine." He deliberately explained, "Lao Liu is still pointing at you to make a lot of money for the company."

Ji Zhihuai was silent for a moment, then nodded slowly, and said in a low voice, "I understand."

Liao Ruming didn't know what he understood.

Do you understand that they have broken up, or do you understand that they drink water and take medicine?

Whatever it was, the time to say goodbye seemed to have come.

But just because Liao Ruming mentioned Liu Shuo, he thought of the invitation to that variety show... Oops, I just said goodbye, will I be slapped in the face in a few days?

... Liao Ruming felt a sudden and extreme calmness.

He just thought about it calmly for two seconds, and then said something to avoid being slapped in the face a week later: "By the way, since they are all from the entertainment industry, maybe there will be cooperation in the future."

Ji Zhihuai frowned slightly in confusion.

Liao Ruming thought he was talking about variety shows, but Ji Zhihuai didn't know about it at all.He thought that what Liao Ruming meant was that in the future, other artists brought by Liao Ruming would cooperate with Ji Zhihuai.

... This is a scene talk.Ji Zhihuai thought.

At the same time, however, he still felt a heart-gnawing pain.His manager... his lover, his person.The person who had been with him for three years was about to leave.

Since he lost his parents at the age of 15, there has never been anyone closer than Liao Ruming.Sometimes Ji Zhihuai would wonder what position Liao Ruming occupied in his world?

When his parents died, he was still too young to understand the pain of losing the closest person.

And now he understood.

He watched Liao Ruming walk out of his world without looking back, as if he would never look back at him again.forever.

The door closed automatically.Liao Ruming has gone far.He knew that if he went to the window at this time, he might be able to see Liao Ruming's back when he left the community.But Ji Zhihuai didn't dare to move his footsteps.

His expression froze there, and the whole person was the same.

Then, like a wandering spirit, he walked slowly to the stairs, ready to go upstairs.Then he stopped and repeated Liao Ruming's words to himself: "Remember to drink warm water and take medicine."

So he went to boil water and took medicine.Even though he didn't actually have a cold, wasn't sick, but his voice was hoarse because he didn't sleep last night, he still took a cold medicine.

...just because of Liao Ruming's casual instructions.

Maybe if he obediently listened to Liao Ruming's words, Liao Ruming would come back?Ji Zhihuai knew in his heart that this was impossible, but he seemed to be cruelly forcing himself to think and do this.

You should always leave some hope for yourself.

At this time, Ji Zhihuai really felt dizzy, as if he had caught a cold.

He stared blankly for a while, then walked upstairs with a blank expression.

At the stairway on the second floor, he paused for a moment. He was supposed to go to the right, but he went to the left by a strange coincidence.Liao Ruming's bedroom door was not closed.he walked in.

Inside the bedroom was chaos.Things belonging to Ji Zhihuai were thrown everywhere, while Liao Ruming's clothes were scattered out of the packing bags and spread out on the bed.

Ji Zhihuai watched quietly for a while, then walked to the bed and lay down.He was trapped in Liao Ruming's clothes.He seemed to be surrounded by Liao Ruming's breath again.

However, he thought, this is something that Liao Ruming doesn't want.And he is also something that Liao Ruming doesn't want.

It made him feel a dull pain.He slowly felt a bitter emotion spread, and then the corners of his eyes seemed to be covered with something moist.

He thought that the former vocal music teacher said that ordinary people could not match his vocal condition, which is a unique thing.However, he also has a fatal flaw.

He always lacks some emotion.

But now Ji Zhihuai is thinking to himself, no, no—he just doesn’t know, doesn’t know how—

... Ji Zhihuai was wrapped in the clothes left by Liao Ruming, and slowly fell into a deep sleep.

In the dream, he still frowned uncomfortably.

And Liao Ruming has already returned to the house that Liu Shuo temporarily borrowed from him, and while using the shopping software to place an order for what he needs, he called out 017.

His mood had calmed down, so he asked 017 lazily at this time: "So, what is my side mission?" Before 017 could answer, Liao Ruming asked in confusion, "So there are side missions in this game. Quest? What is the relationship between the branch line and the main line?"

017 can only answer: "There is no necessary connection."

"Inevitable connection..." Liao Ruming said, "So there is indeed a connection."

017 said awkwardly: "Host, I can't disclose this part of the information. We can't interfere with the player's game progress."

"Hehe, then you advised me not to give up the main mission." Liao Ruming said disapprovingly, "It is indeed the player who makes the decision, but you are also subtly influencing the player."

017 cannot refute this question.

Although the player is the real decision maker during the game, due to various reasons, the system that accompanied the player to the second universe must have its own position and ideas.

Liao Ruming secretly suspected that the second universe must have some special secrets.

Before entering the second universe, players will undergo a series of complicated and inexplicable tests.It's obviously just a game, but it looks like it's doing some secret mission.

The reason given by the game company is that entering the second universe is a risky thing, and they must ensure that players are able and suitable to enter the second universe.

This reason is of course quite reasonable, but Liao Ruming doesn't fully believe it.

Why "suitable"?They don't care if they play a game or not?Then why doesn't this broken game company let players play the game, first do hundreds of thousands of psychological tests to see if the player is suitable for this game?

It doesn't make sense at all.

It is enough that the player's physical and mental health can withstand the risk of entering and exiting the second universe.Why bother whether it fits or not?They are just doing business.

There must be some special meaning behind this.

Perhaps these players are like the guinea pigs used by the first universe to explore the second universe.Liao Ruming guessed so, but there was no evidence.

In any case, he had never heard of what happened to the players who entered the second universe.They just come to play a game in an ordinary way, and then return to the first universe in an ordinary way.

Liao Ruming thought for a moment, then couldn't help shaking his head, feeling very puzzled.

Later, he heard 017 talk about his side mission.

"...Looking for someone?" Liao Ruming's eyes widened, and then he rolled his eyes, "Wait, let me confirm one thing first. If my side mission also fails, can I still leave this small world?"

System 017: "..."

Its host also said that it was worrying unnecessarily. Look, this person has already thought of something.

However, 017 still answered this question very respectfully: "The small world we are in is only a subsidiary small world, so we can leave when this bubble bursts automatically."

"Automatically broken?" Liao Ruming frowned, "When will I have to wait?"

017 thought to himself, look, this guy is really impatient with this world, right?

017 made complaints while answering Liao Ruming's question: "Usually, it's waiting until the target of the game dies."

"The target of the game..." Liao Ruming said in surprise, "Ji Zhihuai?? Wait until Ji Zhihuai dies?"

017 shook his luminous body: "Yes."

Liao Ruming: "..."

He fell back on the sofa, closed his eyes in pain, and said to himself: "Then I might as well spend the rest of my life with Ji Zhihuai, and find someone... who else..."

He suddenly realized what he said, then sat up abruptly, glared at 017 viciously, and said, "What did you hear just now?"

017 said rigidly: "I didn't hear anything, host."

That is to say, I heard that your old relationship with your ex-boyfriend is not over.normal phenomenon. 017 thought to himself.

Liao Ruming looked at 017 suspiciously, but the little ball of light showed no expression.He couldn't see anything, so he looked away boredly.

In the end, he still struggled to ask about the side mission: "So who is that person? Any clues?"

017 was silent for a moment, and then said: "Host, I can give you two clues. First, this person has disappeared into this world; second, this person has a direct relationship with Ji Zhihuai."

"Ji Zhihuai?" Liao Ruming couldn't help but said, "Is it related to him?"

017 said: "Yes."

"So this is the 10%??" Liao Ruming was shocked, "Could it be Ji Zhihuai's old lover?! Disappeared in this world... the dead Bai Yueguang? That's why he can't fall in love with me completely??"

017 thought to himself, you have too many idol dramas in your mind.

But the respectful 017 only seriously corrected Liao Ruming's statement: "No, it's not related in this respect."

Liao Ruming was still suspicious.

017 paused, because Liao Ruming might have misunderstood their game, so he explained, "Host, the target of the strategy we provide, from the past to the present to the future, must be only you as a lover, and you will only meet as a player .We can guarantee that.”

Liao Ruming nodded, his expression relaxed.

He made no secret of his high demands on his lover - after all, he himself is a little virgin who has never been in love.If you play a game, you have to face such things as Bai Yueguang in the heart of the target...

Then Liao Ruming should work hard to get out of the singles in reality, he is not a person who likes to be abused.

Generally speaking, even though Liao Ruming is an obsessive-compulsive and perfectionist person, he is willing to ensure his comfort and happiness to the maximum extent.

If doing something doesn't make you happy, then don't do it.

If you are not happy with a person, then choose to leave this person.

Liao Ruming is a short-tempered and impatient person, and because of this, he tries to avoid everything that would make him lose his temper.

As for the side missions, the clues that 017 can provide are nothing more than that.Afterwards, Liao Ruming disconnected from 017.

After that, Liao Ruming contacted Liu Shuo and agreed to participate in that variety show.A few days later, Ji Zhihuai was shocked to see Liao Ruming at the shooting scene.And Liao Ruming shrugged, smiled briskly at him and said: "Look, I said we will have a chance to cooperate."

Seeing how clever he is, he decisively avoided the situation where he was slapped in the face.
