Come be a real villain!
You'll be gifted the strongest conglomerate from the start, get a head start on the original plot, master core technologies, and have tons of female leads waiting ...
Before arriving at "Feather Pen", Xu Shi had also wondered what it would be like to see Wen Shengkui instructing Gu Yi.
To be honest, he always felt that his maternal grandfather had the air of a teacher—don't be fooled by the old man's muscular physique, when he puts it aside, his refined and scholarly demeanor is truly an embodiment of years of cultural cultivation.
Gu Yi, on the other hand, is clearly a rebellious young girl, but there's no denying that she's very smart. She learned racing car lessons from Little Black Rabbit quite quickly last time... I just wonder if she'll be just as smart in her academic subjects.
In short, it should be quite interesting to see these two together.
but.
What he saw was quite different from what he had imagined.
The image of scholars and intellectuals in their minds was completely nonexistent! Instead, the two of them, each with a controller, were... playing online games together?!
"Grandpa, go! Cut through his mid lane!"
"Then remember to give him milk! I'll die if he touches me even once!"
"Don't worry, I'm officially certified as one of the top ten healers in the entire server!"
"Forget it! You didn't even manage to heal me last time!"
"..."
Xu Shi silently closed the door, then reopened it.
What did I see?
It feels numb to knead things, but what about brushes, ink, paper, inkstones, zithers, chess, calligraphy, and painting?
How did it turn into playing video games?!
They're still playing "God's Descent"!
Grandpa, what's with all that gaming jargon you're spouting off like that? It sounds so unfamiliar to everyone!
"you……"
He felt a little dizzy for a moment. Good heavens, this was a road he had never imagined before... So he tentatively waved and called out to the two people who were engrossed in playing.
"...Hey? Xu Shi, you're here?"
Miss Black Rabbit glanced at him and said, "Wait a minute, the final boss has only a little bit of health left, it'll be over soon."
……walk slowly.
Xu Shi's eyes twitched. He politely waited for them to finish the game before grabbing Miss Black Rabbit and pulling her over in an annoyed manner.
"So when I wasn't around, you kept nagging Grandpa to play video games, right?"
He poked Gu Yi's forehead with his finger. "You're something else, Gu Xiaoyi. You can't forget your stupid game, can you?"
"No way!"
Gu Yi realized what was happening and quickly protested in a pitiful tone, "I was studying too! This was just relaxing after class..."
"Indeed, let go of Xiao Gu Yi."
Wen Shengkui also threw the controller aside and began to lecture Xu Shi, "As the saying goes, work and rest should be combined. I also want to learn about the entertainment methods of young people."
Xu Shi was dumbfounded. "If it's not you, sir, then who are you from?"
The key question is, how old are you? Is it really possible for you to seamlessly integrate into the younger generation without any obstacles?
"It's because you've been away so much lately..."
Seeing that someone was standing up for her, Miss Black Rabbit felt more confident. "Even if you're here, you won't play with me, so you won't let me find someone else?"
"..."
Xu Shi wanted nothing more than to spank her again in front of everyone. "You still think you're right?"
Many people would kill for such an opportunity, and you've squandered it like this... But I must say, you really have a talent for this. Last time, you managed to drag Su Lin down with you, which was already quite surprising. This time, you even managed to get Grandpa Wen to fall for your tricks.
To be honest, he found it hard to connect Wen Shengkui with the "divine arrival," perhaps due to stereotypes from his past life? It's true, for older people, learning to use a mobile phone or computer isn't easy... He vaguely remembered that in his previous life, it took him over a month to teach his grandparents how to use chat software.
But Wen Shengkui was clearly different. The old man was very knowledgeable and had some understanding of various industries. Given the environment of Night City, getting started with a game was not difficult for him.
So after thinking about it, he felt relieved. Letting Gu Yi spend more time with Wen Shengkui, besides studying, was actually a way for the grandfather and grandson to repair their relationship. Caring for elderly people living alone... From this perspective, Miss Black Rabbit did a surprisingly good job. At least when the two of them were playing the dungeon earlier, Xu Shi could clearly feel that the old man was in a very good mood.
"So you're here to pick her up and take her home? Or is there something else?"
Wen Shengkui cleared his throat, reverting to his usual dignified demeanor. "If not, Gu Yi can stay with me. I quite like this child, and she's very caring... It's quite pleasant to be with her."
I think you want to continue teaming up with her to grind dungeons, old man, you've fallen into depravity... Xu Shi was ashamed, he really couldn't think of any way Gu Yi could be associated with the words "good at taking care of people".
However, he also noticed the approval in the other person's eyes. This time, the approval was really directed at him, and it had a hint of "you've found a good wife, kid."
Wen Shengkui isn't stupid. When Xu Shi brought Gu Yi to see him before, he had a general idea. Although he hadn't asked her in detail these past few days, he had figured it out. There must be something between the two of them. Otherwise, if they were just employees, would you go to such lengths to pave the way for her and arrange opportunities for her to improve herself?
—You're quite the player, aren't you? I remember you have a fiancée, right?
—Oh? So, does Grandpa have any advice for you?
—I just wanted to say that young people are really healthy, but they still need to be careful.
It's clear from this silent exchange of glances that Wen Shengkui has no intention of interfering in his eldest grandson's love life. Whether he finds one or ten is up to him; as long as he doesn't mess things up, it doesn't matter.
The old man was surprisingly open-minded.
