Chapter 71 "You'll be punished, baby."...
Lü Dongyi: "..."
Well... he was just asking unnecessary questions.
They got to enjoy themselves again.
The man still had a smile in his eyes as he lowered his gaze and tapped lightly on the screen.
G: [My boyfriend has arrived.]
G: [Go to sleep.]
G: Goodnight.
G: [Baby.]
The director and his entourage, who had just gotten off the plane, also hurried over.
Zhou Xuefeng, carrying his luggage, said, "Why are you all standing here?"
Lu Dongyi, ever observant, stepped forward, took the director's luggage, and joked, "Senior brother's busy reporting to his family."
"Oh?" Zhou Xuefeng's eyebrows curved slightly upon hearing this. "Xiao Guan has a family? Why didn't you tell me?"
Guan Yue turned off his phone screen and readily admitted, "I've got it. I'll bring it to the teacher to show him another day when I have the chance."
“Okay.” Zhou Xuefeng was already quite old, and when he smiled, the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes widened. “Then I’ll have to schedule fewer business trips for you in the future.”
Guan Yue smiled and replied, "That would be best."
"That won't do, teacher. How can you let him have a 'warm bed and family'?"
Zhou Xuefeng and several other older leaders laughed.
Zhou Xuefeng: "Don't forget, let me meet your family another day..."
The group was chatting enthusiastically, but Guan Yue kept his eyes down, focused on the messages on his phone.
Is her boyfriend still awake?
It was only two hours without contact, but he found it unbearable.
The winter wind from south of Beijing blows all the way south toward the city where my loved one lives.
Pei Qi was half asleep when he vaguely heard the increasingly fierce wind outside the window.
I wanted to check if the window was closed properly, but I couldn't get up no matter what I did.
My head feels heavy, pressed against the pillow, and I can't get up.
I slept soundly until morning.
The moment the brain connects.
The capybara then thought of Dr. Guan.
So I quickly grabbed my phone from the bedside table, unlocked it, and opened a certain green app.
Chef Guan: [Boyfriend has arrived.] 12:15 AM.
Chef Guan: [Go to sleep.]
Chef Guan: Goodnight.
Chef Guan: [Baby.]
Chef Guan: [I've arrived at the hotel.] 12:55 AM.
Chef Guan: [I miss you.]
Chef Guan: [Baby.]
Chef Guan: Good morning. 7:05 AM.
Chef Guan: [Baby.]
Chef Guan: [Getting ready for a meeting.]
Chef Guan: [I'll be a bit busy, so I probably won't be able to reply to messages promptly.]
Chef Guan: [Remember to eat breakfast.]
Chef Guan: [Qiqi Baby.]
Pei Xi looked at a string of messages.
I feel like I haven't been able to absorb any information.
All I see on the screen is "baby"...
Ahhhhhh.
Why... do you keep calling him that?
There's nothing wrong with calling it that.
But he still felt ashamed.
It's almost unbearable to watch.
The little capybara buried its face in the blanket, trying to calm down.
But he already woke up late, so he didn't have time to calm down; he had to hurry to work.
So the little capybara jumped up again, hurriedly washed up, and then ran out to catch the subway.
I had already left home when I realized I hadn't replied to Dr. Guan yet.
Click to open the chat box.
Upon closer inspection...
Oh dear, I forgot to eat breakfast...
How am I supposed to explain this?
He could only buy a loaf of bread at a shop in the subway and posted it to Dr. Guan.
Seven.: [Photo (.jpg)]
Seven; [I'm going to work too.]
Seven: [Reply to me when you're done with your work.]
Seven: [No rush.]
Seven: [I'm going to check my phone later too.]
He's busy today too. He has to finalize the restoration report for the previous ancient book, and since it's the end of the year, he also needs to improve a lot of system information.
I have to go to Heda University for class this afternoon.
The capybara forgets all its other traits when it gets busy, and even its fresh and exciting boyfriend is buried in a series of written reports.
Pei Qi was so busy that he didn't notice the time displayed in the lower right corner of the screen until he had saved and submitted the document.
Hmm.
It's almost one o'clock already.
The young man got up from his workstation and stretched.
I wonder if Dr. Guan has finished his work yet.
Um.
I remember now.
My newly-minted boyfriend.
Several people sent me messages.
He was the first to open the chat window with Dr. Guan.
Chef Guan: [Photo.] 11:00 AM.
Chef Guan: [Intermission.]
The photo shows a row of exquisite tea snacks and fruits.
Chef Guan: [Just a piece of bread for breakfast?]
Chef Guan: [That's too little. We need at least one more egg.]
Chef Guan: [Don't skip meals when you're busy.]
Chef Guan: [Otherwise, you'll be punished.]
Chef Guan: [Baby.]
Although the suffix "baby" was added, it still made the capybara feel very intimidating.
Dr. Guan... has many ways of punishing people.
He didn't want to cry and then uncontrollably spray water anymore...
But how could he have thought of all this just because of the word "punishment"...
Pei Xi couldn't stand herself anymore.
Blink quickly, trying to blink away all the jumbled thoughts in your head.
The man's message did not end there.
Chef Guan: [Haven't you taken your lunch break yet?] It's 12:30 PM.
Chef Guan: [Did you forget to eat again?]
Chef Guan: [Qiqi.]
Oh my god.
The name "栖栖" sounds rather scary.
The capybara quickly typed something to make amends.
Seven: [I've eaten.]
But I don't have any food on hand right now...
My senior classmates have already finished eating.
There were only some biscuits and bread in the break room.
We also can't show those posts to Dr. Guan.
I feel like... Dr. Guan would be even angrier if he saw this.
The fuselage suddenly jolted in my hand.
Chef Guan: [What did you eat?]
Chef Guan: [Why are you eating so late?]
Hmm.
Why did you reply so quickly...?
The capybara tried to change the subject.
Seven: [Eating at the cafeteria.]
Seven: [I forgot to take a picture.]
Fortunately, it wasn't face-to-face, so he could still come up with a little lie.
Chef Guan: [Qiqi.]
Chef Guan: [Did you know?]
Chef Guan: [You're really bad at lying.]
Unfortunately, it was exposed in a second.
how so!
How was this discovered?
This...this...
Is Dr. Guan a psychologist...?
Chef Guan: [I ordered takeout for you.]
Chef Guan: [I'll be there in twenty minutes.]
Chef Guan: [Eat it.]
Chef Guan: [Take a picture of me.]
Chef Guan: [Let me check my phone in a bit.]
Chef Guan: [I want to see photos of the meal before and after eating.]
Chef Guan: [Meeting mode muted.]
Hmm.
Pei Xi looked at the message.
The focus was actually...
Dr. Guan didn't call him "baby" this time.
What are you doing, Pei Xi!
We really need to eat something.
My brain is a complete mess.
The takeout was indeed delivered to him twenty minutes later.
The little capybara finished its meal obediently.
Then I obediently sent the photos to Dr. Guan.
The man was probably busy; there was no sound at the moment.
In the afternoon, Pei Qi rushed off to class.
After class, several students added him on WeChat, saying they were very interested in ancient book restoration and wanted to visit the museum on their days off.
The little capybara always likes to share these things with others, and happily added these promising young people.
Strangely enough.
The messages these young people sent him didn't seem to have anything to do with ancient book restoration.
For example, this student, Xiao Ran.
When asked if he could disclose his age, he did not answer.
They asked him if he liked younger people.
The little capybara had a lot of questions in its head.
I don't know how to reply.
I simply didn't reply.
I returned home with a head full of questions, and it was almost 7 p.m.
Pei Xi looked at the lock screen of her phone and wondered how it had already reached the 24th.
The day after tomorrow is Dr. Guan's birthday.
He hasn't prepared a gift yet.
Dr. Guan may still be in southern Beijing and hasn't returned yet.
The plan to prepare dinner and cake could not be carried out.
The little capybara, looking worried, glanced at the message.
Dr. Guan has not yet replied.
Is the meeting going on this late?
Seven: [I'm home.]
Seven: [I went to class at Heda University today.]
Seven: [Has Dr. Kwan's meeting not finished yet?]
Anyway, he's Dr. Guan's boyfriend now, so what's wrong with asking a few more questions?
Hmph.
Seven: [Remember to eat well too.]
Leave your comment.
He went into the kitchen to make egg noodles again.
He had just cracked the eggs into the boiling water.
My cell phone was ringing in my pocket.
The capybara held a wooden shovel in one hand and opened its phone in the other.
Chef Guan: [Just finished.]
Chef Guan: [Very annoying.]
Chef Guan: [I want to go back to the hotel and video chat with you.]
Chef Guan: [But they insisted on going to eat.]
Chef Guan: [We're going to karaoke too.]
Chef Guan: [I miss you so much.]
Before Pei Xi could even open the keyboard, the man's voice call popped up.
"Hello……"
The male voice on the other end sounded slightly tired: "Why aren't you replying to me?"
Pei Xi: "I was just about to reply."
"What are you doing?" The man's voice remained lazy.
"Hmm, I'm making egg noodles." The little capybara stirred the eggs that were gradually forming in the pot. "What's Dr. Guan going to eat?"
"I don't know, they haven't finalized anything yet," the man replied, his voice slightly magnetic. "I miss you so much, Qiqi."
Pei Xi paused in stirring the egg drop soup, her mouth slightly stammering, "She should... be back in a few days."
"Probably." The man's tone was tinged with a hint of resentment. "I'm going to karaoke later, I'll let you know."
"It's alright, you go ahead." The capybara replied without hesitation, "You've had a long day, relax a bit."
Guan Yue: "..."
"Are you really that confident?"
“Hmm…” Pei Xi didn’t understand. What was there to worry about? Going to a karaoke bar wasn’t like going to the KK amusement park. “Just remember not to drink too much.”
"Hmm." The man's tone was indifferent.
Several seconds passed.
Guan Yue: "When are you going to sleep?"
Pei Xi: "It should be ten o'clock."
Guan Yue: "Oh."
"What's wrong?" Pei Qi asked, puzzled.
Guan Yue: "I might not be finished by 10 o'clock."
"It's okay, you have fun, I'll go to sleep by myself." The capybara thought it was being very considerate.
Then Dr. Guan on the other end of the phone didn't say anything.
Then he hung up the phone.
The little capybara blinked its eyes, quickly put down its phone, and started making noodles.
It's 10:15 at night.
Guan Yue watched as his colleagues with family members left the private room one by one to answer calls checking up on him, while his own phone remained silent, as if it had no signal...
Very good.
It's been a whole night.
He didn't send him a single message.
Didn't you say you wanted to date him?
Don't you ever tell your boyfriend/girlfriend that you miss him/her?
They don't check up on anyone.
Let him play as much as he wants, have a good time...
Maybe this stinky capybara is already lying there sleeping soundly.
Very good.
All he wants now is to go back.
This capybara can't get out of bed.
