[Super short sweet novel, feel free to read]
Lin Yuean felt he was probably the most miserable office worker in history.
Fresh out of graduation, he was 'air-dropped' a four-yea...
A hint of resonance in the blurred consciousness
This time, while Gu Lin was unconscious, Lin Yu'an sent him to the hospital without waiting for his consent.
Gu Lin was lying on the hospital bed with an IV needle stuck in the back of his hand.
"Mr. Gu, it's time to take your medicine."
A middle-aged nurse with a kind face approached with a cup of water and pills, speaking in a very low voice.
Gu Lin opened his eyes with great effort, his vision was a little blurry, and he could only see a swaying white shadow.
He pursed his lips tightly, his jawline tense, which was his instinct to resist weakness.
The nurse waited patiently for a moment before carefully lifting his head, putting the pills into his mouth, and feeding him a few sips of water.
She handed water, wiped sweat, and recorded body temperature. Her movements were gentle, but with an impeccable sense of distance.
This alienation made Gu Lin feel a strange, indescribable irritation.
He was used to Lin Yu'an's care.
He is used to being able to accurately predict his needs.
Now, the temperature of the cup of water handed to him by the nurse is always a little off; the action of helping him up is also filled with a hint of cautious tentativeness.
Hotel rooms.
Lin Yu'an skillfully turned on his live broadcast equipment.
The screen lit up, reflecting his slightly tired face, which still had a bright smile.
"Good evening everyone! Long time no see, I'm An Xiao Miao."
He greeted the screen, "I've been busy with a project with my boss lately. I've been so busy that I'm practically flying off the handle."
The barrage immediately became active:
【Meow Meow is finally back! I missed you so much! 】
[Is the boss the legendary Mr. Gu, who is so handsome but as cold as a Siberian blast?]
[Meow meow, you've been working hard! Tell us some gossip! Does your boss exploit you?]
Lin Yu'an looked at the rapidly scrolling barrage and smiled.
He picked up the water cup beside him and took a sip: "Squeeze? Um... this," he deliberately dragged out the tone, causing the screen to be flooded with comments like [???] and [Got it!].
"Our boss is a complete workaholic. Let's put it this way, his mind is probably only in two states: 'work' and 'preparing to work'."
He put down his water glass and looked more serious.
"However, I'm not here to complain about my boss today. I actually want to talk about that...hard-to-describe feeling of rapport that sometimes comes with work."
He paused, as if searching for the right words.
"It's the kind where you don't need to say much, even a glance or a gesture can make the other person understand your intention immediately and do what you want."
[I understand! Soul mates!]
What is Meow Meow hinting at? (Dog head)
[Tell me more! Is this with the boss?]
"Yes, with the boss."
Lin Yu'an admitted it frankly, with a warm smile in his eyes, as if he remembered some specific scene.
"I feel like I really know my boss inside and out. He's very considerate!"
"Just as several departments were about to get into an argument and blame each other, I noticed the boss raised his hand to grab a glass of water, and his fingertips turned white. The glass of water in front of him was cold and almost empty."
Lin Yu'an's tone was very calm, as if he was talking about a trivial matter.
"I stood up and got him a cup of warm water, just the right temperature for him to drink but not too hot. I also pushed my tablet in front of him. It contained a crucial report, which solved the problem."
[Fuck! Meow meow, are you the worm in the boss's stomach?]
[This isn't a secretary! This is a caring little girl! No, it's an external brain!]
Perfect details! Warm water! Perfect timing!
What was the boss's reaction? Was he moved to tears? (Smirk)
Lin Yu'an was amused by the comments: "I wouldn't cry, boss, you guys know what I mean."
He imitated Gu Lin's cold expression.
"He glanced at the screen, took a sip of the warm water, and then, in that chilling voice that could freeze anyone, he issued new instructions. The instructions were clear and organized, clearly arguing with the various departments that had been arguing. The meeting was immediately back on track."
There was a subtle hint of pride in his smile.
"That feeling... how should I put it? It's like you've precisely dripped a drop of lubricant onto a high-speed, but slightly stuck, precision instrument, right where it needs it most. Then it roars along smoothly and continues on its way.
No words are needed, I just know what he needs at that moment and what I can give him.”
[I'm so impressed! This damn tacit understanding!]
[Meow meow, tell me the truth, are you... huh?]
[Don't talk nonsense! The boss said she likes men, okay? Meow, it's dangerous!]
[Right, right, right! Meow Meow, wake up! Don't fall in love with your boss! (Thumps the table)]
Seeing the screen full of messages like "I like men" and "Don't fall in love with your boss", Lin Yu'an's cheeks flushed all the way to his ears.
He frantically picked up the water glass and took a few gulps, trying to hide his embarrassment.
As a result, I almost choked and started coughing.
"Ahem... ahem! You... you guys stop messing around!"
He put down his water cup and tried to keep a straight face, but his red ears betrayed him.
"That's work! It's professionalism! It has nothing to do with... anything else! The boss is the boss, I'm the secretary, and there's a clear line between us! Stop it, stop it! If you say anything more, I'll shut down the live stream!"
He threatened with bluffing, but his eyes were a little vague.
The barrage of comments was instantly flooded with comments like "Hahaha, Meow Meow is shy", "There's something fishy going on here", and "Meow Meow's ears are so red they look like blood could drip out".
At this moment, above the live broadcast screen, a series of extremely dazzling special effects exploded without any warning!
One after another, huge models of space battleships emitting brilliant starlight descended with a loud bang.
It instantly filled the entire screen!
Immediately afterwards, countless meteor showers shone with colorful lights, accompanied by a gorgeous server-wide announcement:
[Supreme VIP user "L" gave streamer "An Xiao Miao" 10 "Star Fleet"! ]
[Supreme VIP user "L" gave streamer "An Xiao Miao" 10 "Meteor Shower"! ]
Supreme VIP user "L" gave streamer "An Xiao Miao" 10 "Hearts of Eternity"! ]…
The gift special effect lasted for half a minute, the entire live broadcast room was illuminated like daylight, and the barrage of comments went completely crazy.
[Holy crap! ! ! !]
【L Godly Rich!!! ! ! ! ! 】
Ten fleets! Ten rains of fire! Ten Hearts of Eternity?! How much would that cost?!
[I'm so depressed! How inhumane!]
[L God!! Are you still missing a leg pendant?!]
Lin Yu'an was completely stunned, his eyes wide open.
Looking at the breathtaking special effects on the screen and the astronomical amount of rewards, his mouth was slightly open and did not close for a long time.
This mysterious "L" is the sponsor of his live broadcast room, and he has always been generous in giving rewards.
But this is the first time that there has been such a sudden and indiscriminate bombardment like today.
"Thank...thank you L...thank you Brother L for the tip! It's...too expensive!"
Lin Yu'an thanked him quickly, his voice stuttering a bit.
He subconsciously glanced at the online audience list, and the familiar, golden "L" ID was hanging there quietly.
***
The lights in the VIP ward of Singapore General Hospital are dimmed.
Gu Lin half leaned on the raised hospital bed, with the infusion tube on the back of his hand connected to the drip.
The dizziness caused by the high fever came over me, making the tablet screen in front of me a little blurry.
The nurse dozed quietly in a chair in the corner.
Gu Lin couldn't sleep. The physical discomfort and mental anxiety made it impossible for him to sleep.
For some unknown reason, he clicked on the live streaming platform that he hadn't logged into for a long time.
At this moment, on the screen was An Xiaomao's familiar face.
Gu Lin's vision was a little dazed, and the high fever slowed his reaction down.
He heard An Xiaomiao talking about "boss", "project encountered difficulties", "meeting deadlock", "tacit understanding"...all those words made him feel the same.
An extremely weak warm current quietly slipped by.
He didn't think, or even see what gift option he had ordered.
He just wanted to "feed" or "comfort" the kitten, which was always very close to his ideas.
He placed his finger on the icons of several of the most expensive gifts and clicked them quickly and continuously.
Watching the special effects exploding one after another on the screen, and watching "An Xiao Miao" being so shocked that he was incoherent.
Gu Lin leaned back on the pillow, and the corners of his mouth, which were cracked by the high fever, moved upward very faintly in an almost imperceptible arc.
A hint of childish satisfaction, tinged with the willfulness of illness, briefly overwhelmed the physical discomfort.
Gu Lin’s physical strength could not hold on any longer, and his eyelids became heavier and heavier.
Before falling into a complete coma, he took one last blurry glance at the live broadcast room.
At the top of the screen, a few colorful bullet screens flew by like fragments, appearing in his eyes as they were about to close:
[L-God is so generous! Meow meow, kowtow to L-God!]
[Meow meow, the sponsor is here! Come on, show your support!]
[L God, look at us, meow! Investing is worth it!]
