Gu Qingze and Chu Lingxiao received their first mission, which was considered their novice mission, and required them to enter a world generated by a contemporary novel.
This was an era and environment that was completely unfamiliar to Chu Lingxiao. Products of technology could be seen everywhere, from the flashing neon lights on high-rise buildings to the small electronic products held in the hands of people on the streets. Everything seemed so novel.
However, Chu Lingxiao's ability to adapt and learn is truly amazing. He is like a sponge, desperately absorbing the knowledge and rules of this world.
From his initial ignorant curiosity about the surrounding environment to gradually being able to deal with various situations with ease, it took him less than two months to basically become familiar with how the world works.
Gu Qingze originally thought that he could be Chu Lingxiao's "little life teacher" for once.
He imagined himself patiently teaching Chu Lingxiao how to operate those newfangled electronic gadgets, like a mobile phone—that gadget with a smooth screen and all sorts of mysterious buttons, where a simple swipe of a finger could unlock a world of information;
There are also electrical appliances, from refrigerators that can quickly cool down to microwave ovens that can cook a variety of delicious dishes...
Gu Qingze had even decided to start teaching Chu Lingxiao from the most basic steps of turning on and off the computer, and slowly help him integrate into this era.
However, what surprised Gu Qingze was that Chu Lingxiao didn't need his help at all.
Chu Lingxiao was like a natural explorer. With his intelligence and keen observation, he quickly mastered the use of these modern technological products.
He can operate the phone expertly, sliding and clicking his fingers across the screen quickly to find the information he wants;
He can also easily use electrical appliances, whether it is adjusting the temperature of the refrigerator or setting the cooking time of the microwave...he can do all kinds of things in an orderly manner.
This small world created by contemporary fiction bears a striking resemblance to the small world Gu Qingze originally lived in. When Gu Qingze once again saw those familiar electronic products, the mobile phone and tablet lying quietly on the table, the familiar shapes and textures seemed to take him back to the past.
Seeing these things that he once took for granted again after so many years, it would be a lie for Gu Qingze to say that he was not excited... At least he stayed up late playing games for two days.
But... the novelty was only temporary; he soon felt a sense of boredom. While those games could provide short-term excitement, playing them over and over again was nothing more than a repetitive routine.
"Qingze, don't you want to continue playing games?" Chu Lingxiao asked with a hint of sarcasm when he saw him put down the tablet and close the book he was reading.
Gu Qingze nodded: "Let's stop playing, it's boring. Let Lingxiao and I read a book together." As he said that, he moved to Chu Lingxiao's side, took Chu Lingxiao's hand and squeezed it gently.
"Who wants to read with you? I haven't forgiven you yet. You were playing games and didn't have time to pay attention to me. You even didn't sleep, leaving me alone in the empty room..."
Chu Lingxiao accused Gu Qingze of all his "crimes" over the past two days one by one, but did not pull his hand out of Gu Qingze's hand.
Gu Qingze was incredulous and cried out "Unfair!" "I admit that I've been playing games a bit too much these days, but I'm not ignoring you. I've always responded to Ling Xiao. After all, Ling Xiao is the most important thing to me."
As Gu Qingze spoke, he looked at Chu Lingxiao without blinking, his eyes full of flattery.
"Besides... I just went to bed a little late. I didn't refuse to sleep with Ling Xiao... Well, in the final analysis, this matter is my fault. I apologize to Ling Xiao."
As Gu Qingze spoke, he felt that he had gone too far, and finally admitted his mistake.
He gently tugged at the corner of Chu Lingxiao's clothes and said coquettishly, "Dear Lingxiao, please forgive me." As he spoke, he placed a feather-light kiss on the back of Chu Lingxiao's hand.
Chu Lingxiao looked at him acting like a spoiled brat and he automatically forgave him in his heart. He secretly sighed that he was too disappointing, but Qingze was really pretty and it was hard for him to be really angry at his face. What's more... he acted like a spoiled brat towards him in this way... No one would be able to stand it.
Gu Qingze also knew that Ling Xiao had forgiven him, so he immediately took advantage of the situation and hugged him from behind. He also rested his head on his shoulder and rubbed it, whispering in Chu Lingxiao's ear: "I knew Ling Xiao was the best."
As he spoke, he cast his gaze towards the cover of the book Ling Xiao had just read and read it out word for word, "Life Skills Course, published by Huaqing University."
"Yes." Chu Lingxiao nodded. "It's a very comprehensive introduction. It covers every aspect."
Gu Qingze flipped through the catalog curiously. "Really? Not only does it cover how to use and repair various electrical appliances, but it also teaches you how to manage your finances, organize things, decorate, learn recipes, dress code, and how to build and cultivate good interpersonal relationships... It's really comprehensive."
Chu Lingxiao nodded: "Yeah, that's why I read this book first."
Gu Qingze extended an invitation: "Can I watch it with Lingxiao?" After saying that, he rubbed his face against Chu Lingxiao's and looked at him expectantly.
"Qingze, you want to see it too?" Chu Lingxiao looked at him uncertainly. "Isn't your original world similar to this small world? You should have mastered all these skills, so you shouldn't need to see it, right?"
Gu Qingze heard this and smiled helplessly: "In my original world, every day I worked, worked..."
