Fu Bai was waiting for Qin Laiyang's next move, but Qin Laiyang became much more obedient.
He seemed to sense Fu Bai's dislike for him and didn't appear in front of Fu Bai for a while.
Even at school, when Qin Laiyang saw Fu Bai from afar, he would only nod at him as if they were just friends, without even saying hello.
This attitude is completely opposite to the one I had shown towards Fu Bai a while ago, where I practically wanted to stick to him; it seems rather abnormal.
Even 748 noticed it.
It had long been connected to Qin Laiyang's live-streaming strategy system, which was equivalent to installing a surveillance camera on Qin Laiyang. As long as Qin Laiyang made any moves in the system, 748 could detect them.
But Qin Laiyang has been unusually quiet lately.
He not only didn't bother Fu Bai, but he also barely entered the live stream, seemingly focused on researching something.
748 now reports Qin Laiyang's situation to Fu Bai every day.
Fu Bai didn't really care; when 748 was reporting, he just listened to it as background noise.
As usual, 748 explained to Fu Bai what Qin Laiyang had done that day.
Qin Laiyang spent the entire day in the lab today. Since he didn't access the system to retrieve any data, I don't know what he's researching.
He seems to have been focusing on this lately, acting all mysterious, and rarely even logging into the system.
Perhaps because he couldn't get any donations from the "viewers" in the live stream, he's been rarely trying to complete the tasks suggested by them lately.
In his mind's eye, 748 stretched out his short hand and kept scratching his head, pretending to be thinking.
His sudden silence was very unusual; I had a feeling he was up to something.
Fu Bai is still in the lab right now. He's encountered a problem these past few days, and he's leading his team to work day and night to overcome it.
Now things are finally looking up.
Upon hearing 748's confusion, Fu Bai suddenly smiled.
The nine-tailed fox in the sea of consciousness also lazily glanced at 748 and suggested another possibility.
"748, is it possible that your existence has been discovered, and therefore you have been blocked by Qin Laiyang's system?"
Therefore, 748 could no longer find out what Qin Laiyang was doing as before, and only assumed that the other party no longer entered the system and stopped broadcasting.
Upon hearing this possibility, 748's voice immediately rose: "Impossible!"
It's no longer the useless little idiot it used to be; it's now terrifyingly strong. How could it possibly be blocked by Qin Laiyang's system?
Fu Bai continued his experiment, saying calmly, "How about this, let's make a bet. I'll give you two days, and you can try again to see if you can bypass the live stream strategy system's block?"
Before 748 could answer, Fu Bai threw out another bait: "If you win, all the energy in this small world will be yours."
The bait really hooked 748. Without a second thought, it immediately said, "Float! You promised, don't go back on your word!"
Fu Bai: "Of course, when have I ever gone back on my word?"
748: [Fine, a promise is a promise! Fu Baibai, just wait and give me all the energy in this little world, okay?]
Fu Bai smiled slightly: "I'll be waiting for you to come and get it."
After the agreement was made, 748 realized that Fu Bai's suggestion to make a bet with it must have meant that it had already been confirmed by Qin Laiyang's system to be blocked.
748 couldn't help but ask: [Fu Baibai, did you already know I was being blocked?]
Fu Bai nodded: "Mm."
748 clutched her heart in sorrow, and asked Fu Bai with a wronged expression: "Then why didn't you tell me?!"
Fu Bai joked, "I just want to see when the great 748 system will realize that it has been blocked."
At this point, Fu Bai sighed softly and said in a tone of disappointment, "It's a pity that it didn't realize it had been blocked until a few minutes ago."
748 lowered his head in shame upon hearing this.
748 admits his mistake: [Fu Baibai, I have indeed been arrogant and conceited lately. I will definitely improve my professional skills and won't let you down again.]
In the sea of consciousness, the nine-tailed fox stretched out its furry paws and gently rubbed 748's head.
Fu Bai: "Keep it up."
748, as if injected with adrenaline, roared to the sky: "Awoo~"
It first let out an excited wolf howl, then transformed into data and disappeared into Fu Bai's sea of consciousness. It seems that it had already infiltrated Qin Laiyang's system to remove the system's shield against it.
The nine-tailed fox glanced at the aftershocks of the data in its sea of consciousness, its fox eyes flashing.
Then he gave a soft, ambiguous hum.
Qin Laiyang's system already has a repair function, which means that the higher-ups have discovered his existence as a "heretic," and blocking 748 is just a warning to him.
If he dares to completely overturn the "chosen ones" of those worlds again, just like in the previous worlds, what awaits Fu Bai will not be as simple as the system being blocked.
Fu Bai received a warning from the other party.
But so what?
He has nothing to be afraid of.
He was actually more interested in seeing how the other person would react upon seeing him.
Fu Bai blinked, snapping out of his reverie, and finished the experiment in his hands.
It was already past midnight when Fu Bai and his team members came out of the lab.
Night fell in a hazy darkness, and all around was quiet except for the streetlights, which stood silently, casting a warm yellow glow to illuminate the way home.
Fu Bai was not surprised to see a familiar figure at the laboratory entrance.
The moment he saw the other person, the emotion in Fu Bai's eyes softened immediately, and he quickly walked to the other person's side.
“Uncle.” Fu Bai gently patted Ye Luan’an on the shoulder.
Ye Luan'an turned his head and met Fu Bai's affectionate peach blossom eyes. The coldness on his face melted instantly, and he reached out to take Fu Bai's hand.
"Let's go home," Ye Luan'an said gently, placing a light kiss on the corner of her pale lips.
Fu Bai nodded with a smile, snuggled into Ye Luan'an's arms, and said in a sticky voice, "I'm so tired, Uncle, can you carry me back?"
Without saying a word, Ye Luan'an picked up Fu Bai and didn't care about the gazes of the other researchers.
Fu Bai rested his chin on De Ye Luan'an's shoulder with peace of mind and closed his eyes to pretend to sleep.
Ye Luan'an took a few steps and encountered Ye Xi.
He walked in a hurry, as if he was rushing somewhere.
Fu Bai called out to him, "Ye Xi."
Ye Xi stopped and looked over.
Fu Bai: "Shall we go back together?"
Ye Xi shook her head, her smile shy and sweet: "No need, someone is coming to pick me up."
Fu Bai stared at his face, which appeared even redder under the streetlights, and asked meaningfully, "Are you in a relationship?"
Ye Xi nodded in agreement: "Yes."
