Besides surfing the internet to learn about the fun of other netizens, Ye Qingyun's main goal was to understand the current level of technological development and to learn from it.
So after waking up, Ye Qingyun opened the terminal to browse again.
His current access is the same as Gu Chenyuan's, and he can investigate anything much more easily than ordinary people, with unimpeded access everywhere.
Before checking, he couldn't resist checking the places where he had left comments before. Not too surprisingly, he found that his posts had been filled with candles from netizens wishing him a safe journey and that he shouldn't pretend to be rich after his rehabilitation.
Clearly, his earlier statement that he wouldn't be arrested wasn't taken seriously by the crowd.
Ye Qingyun didn't care. It was just a joke anyway, and it didn't matter what others thought.
Ye Qingyun continued her search. Nowadays, scientific research is thriving, and even ordinary people often enjoy discussing it.
Ye Qingyun successfully found the website address for introducing cutting-edge technology in those forums, selected the most advanced one which was also the most difficult for ordinary people to enter, and clicked on it.
This forum had an entry threshold, but Ye Qingyun had the highest interstellar access privileges and entered easily without any hindrance.
Half of the content on the homepage consists of discussions and technical sharing on various issues, while the other half features discussions about well-known tech professionals.
This discussion included discussions about their appearance, their character, and various recent gossip about them—it was incredibly diverse.
Ye Qingyun: "..."
Indeed, gossip can never be eradicated, no matter where it is.
Ye Qingyun shook her head and clicked into a post that shared knowledge.
Ye Qingyun originally thought that he would have some difficulty understanding this knowledge, but to his surprise, he read it very smoothly. Even if he only glanced at the knowledge, he could quickly understand and absorb it and integrate it into his understanding.
However, he was able to understand some of the knowledge points that were considered difficult to grasp if one's foundation was not solid.
It's like something that was originally there, but whose original appearance was temporarily forgotten because it was covered in dust. Now that the dust has been wiped away, the original appearance of those things has reappeared in his mind.
After scanning all the content, Ye Qingyun felt a faint sense of pride.
Is this... is this what it feels like to have a cheat code?
He used to be really amazing!
Well done, as expected of him! He truly is the man who could conquer Gu Chenyuan with his wisdom!
After reading through several knowledge posts in a short period of time, Ye Qingyun decided to take a break.
Actually, the moment he clicked into the homepage of this knowledge forum, he was attracted by a certain gossip post. The fact that he has been able to resist until now shows that his self-control is indeed quite good.
Ye Qingyun left the knowledge post, unable to suppress her curiosity, and clicked into the gossip post titled "[Unveiling the Love-Hate Relationships of Past Scientific Research Giants: Dramatic, Messy, and Shocking!]"
Ye Qingyun glanced to the side without making a sound, locked the door, and sat down in a corner to avoid letting Gu Chenyuan, who suddenly appeared, see the screen.
...Will that post contain any information about his past?
Even now, he is still puzzled by the fact that he would fall for an unknown person with questionable character.
Gu Chenyuan is unwilling to tell him, so there shouldn't be any problem with him finding out the truth himself, right?
Ye Qingyun held her breath and watched intently from the beginning.
As time passed, Ye Qingyun's brows gradually furrowed.
No, not at all.
He had already seen the later parts, and now all the famous and dramatic characters had been mentioned. What remained were mostly unknown minor characters and some unexciting plot points, making it quite boring.
Others who read the post clearly shared this view, and they began commenting on how compelling the stories were.
[I declare that the most melodramatic story ever is the one where the three Xia brothers acted as doubles for each other, and in the end, none of them won. This is the most melodramatic story in the academic world. Who supports it? Who opposes it?]
[Support! The others are a bit lacking compared to this.]
[The subject of this melodramatic story is actually a high-ranking official. Tsk tsk, compared to this, the other stories about entanglements with ordinary people seem rather lacking in prestige!]
That's right, that's right.
Ye Qingyun personally thought that story was the most melodramatic, but he wasn't interested. He glanced at it a few times and was about to exit when the post automatically refreshed, and an opposing view appeared below:
[Ha, so this is considered the most melodramatic story in your eyes? Young people are truly ignorant.]
[Are officials with some status really that powerful? Pshaw, there are even more powerful ones, you just don't know it.]
Ye Qingyun looked at those lines of text, realized something, and immediately perked up, rapidly typing out the message:
[Trying to cover up the truth! I just think the three brothers are the most melodramatic character. You say no? Then give me an example! Pfft, I think you're just jealous that the three brothers are good-looking, that's why you're objecting!]
After typing this, Ye Qingyun nervously kept refreshing the page, waiting to see if anyone would take the bait and tell him the hidden story.
Persistence pays off, and Ye Qingyun finally got the reply he wanted.
[Heh, what's a minor official compared to that? There was a researcher who was directly and forcefully taken by that person, and even the pirate captain he had always liked was killed by him. Compared to that, everyone else is child's play! I'm not lying, back then, many pirates knew that the researcher liked that scumbag captain.]
Ye Qingyun's eyes widened.
...A scumbag male star who robbed a ship captain?
Ye Qingyun subconsciously refreshed the page and saw that there were new comments:
【Are you crazy! Delete it yourself right now! How can you say such things carelessly? Don't think you can act recklessly just because this is a closed forum!】
[These are all unreliable rumors, and we've completely banned any discussion of that person and the pirate captain's relationship. How dare you bring it up! Are you crazy?!]
Refreshing the page again, the entire post was deleted, leaving no trace.
Ye Qingyun stood there dumbfounded, a thought of disbelief rising in her mind.
According to the plot of the original novel, the person he liked before he lost his memory was Pu Tian, right?
In this way, the whole plot makes sense, even explaining why he encountered Gu Chenyuan and why he was with his admirer.
...No, that still doesn't make sense. If he likes Pu Tian, and Pu Tian asks him to teach his rival Gu Chenyuan, he would definitely roll his eyes and leave on the spot.
What a joke, he's not that shameless.
Besides, how could he possibly like Pu Tian? He really doesn't like that type of scumbag.
So why is that?
Ye Qingyun found the matter increasingly strange, so he left the forum and decided to search for information about Pu Tian.
When he saw Gu Chenyuan's video, he couldn't help but feel a surge of affection, which shows that even though he had amnesia, he still had subconscious emotional reactions to people from the past.
Now that he's looking for videos and pictures of Pu Tian and has met him in person, he can roughly understand what state Pu Tian was in in the past.
Ye Qingyun planned to search for information about Pu Tian on the public search engine first, so he typed the two characters "Pu Tian" into the search box and was about to start the search when the terminal screen suddenly went black.
The terminal broke down, and of all times?
While he was searching for Pu Tian's information?
Ye Qingyun tapped the screen, and a thought that he had always ignored suddenly flashed through his mind.
His terminal and Gu Chenyuan's terminal permissions are linked. So, will Gu Chenyuan know what he does on the terminal and what he searches for?
It was such a simple thing, something that was obviously important to be aware of, and he only realized it now. He only had no experience in being wary of Gu Chenyuan and was caught off guard.
"Click—"
Suddenly, a sound came from outside the locked door, as if someone was frantically twisting the doorknob, trying to break in.
"Who is it?" Ye Qingyun asked boldly.
There was no answer from outside the door; the person who had turned the doorknob seemed to have left.
Before Ye Qingyun could even breathe a sigh of relief, she heard a "click" and the door was slowly opened, revealing a small crack.
Ye Qingyun was a little startled, but still asked softly, "Shen Yuan, is that you? Do you want to invite me out for dinner?"
Here, only Gu Chenyuan himself would dare to treat him like this; otherwise, Gu Chenyuan would have broken his neck long ago.
The door was pushed open a little wider, so Ye Qingyun couldn't see the face, but she saw a familiar hem of clothing. Finally, she breathed a sigh of relief and stepped forward.
As the distance and angle changed, Ye Qingyun saw the appearance of the person behind the door.
Standing outside the door was Gu Chenyuan. Gu Chenyuan lowered his head and did not look at him. His expression was tense, like a volcano about to erupt.
Ye Qingyun's heart tightened, and she grasped Gu Chenyuan's hand: "What's wrong?"
————
Gu Chenyuan never expected that the happy, stable, and peaceful life he had envisioned would end so quickly.
He also wanted to take advantage of Ye Qingyun's amnesia to deepen their relationship, despicably wanting to experience a time when there was no one else involved, just the two of them.
But he didn't expect that Ye Qingyun could recall Pu Tian's name from just a few words.
Besides the name, what else did Ye Qingyun remember? You see, when you want to remember someone you've forgotten, you first think of their voice and appearance, then the various things that happened between them, and only lastly the name.
Qingyun... must have recalled many other things about Putian, right?
Back then, when he stood before Ye Qingyun, who had lost her memory, Ye Qingyun couldn't recall a single thing about their past. But compared to now...
...He lost.
Gu Chenyuan smiled bitterly, pulled Ye Qingyun into his arms, and kissed her red lips as she tried to say something.
