Chapter 15 Ways of Comfort
In the silent conference room, only Sikong Tan was pointing at the screen and sighing:
"Poor little Haitang, what should you do now that the devil has targeted you? Should I remind you to escape from the devil's clutches as soon as possible before anything happens? But it seems there is no better way."
After a moment of silence, he suddenly looked up at Yin Zhiyou, who was completely absent-minded across the table, with a calculating glint in his eyes:
"I almost forgot about you. Hey, do you want to go and remind Xiao Haitang not to fall into the big devil's trap? Hasn't opposing Huo Shizhen always been your strong point?"
Yin Zhiyou followed in Huo Shizhen's footsteps and entered the Central Military Academy, and deliberately chose Huo Shizhen's old path to cover his records in the military academy. But he was not really here to be his substitute as the joke said.
"First, your methods of sowing discord are completely inferior to your ability to gather intelligence. Second, your imagination is even worse. Finally—"
Yin Zhiyou stood up, smiled at him and said:
"You banned me and now you're asking me to speak. Such an unreasonable request. What? Do you think you're the willful omega partner I'll indulge without any bottom line?"
Sikong Tan: ...
I almost forgot that this person has been permanently banned by himself and cannot speak in the group chat.
However, he clearly doesn't have an omega partner, nor is he the type to indulge others' willfulness, yet he can say such absurd things... It's better to continue to ban him!
Yin Zhiyou has a talent for language that is either silent or difficult to handle, and he can go in the wrong direction when he speaks. I'm really afraid that he can defame Haitang even through the screen.
How to say it, although Huo Shizhen suspected that Haitang's background was unknown, Sikong Tan relied on his intuition and always felt that Haitang should not be so scheming.
If she is really a spy, she is probably the poor Haitang who was pushed out as cannon fodder.
When you think about it this way, being used as cannon fodder and being used as a shield in public, and then being targeted by the big devil Huo Shizhen, is really doubly pitiful.
***
Poor Haitang herself - Lin Guantang has been staring at the private chat interface for a long time.
Lin Guantang's mood tonight could perhaps be described as a roller coaster of ups and downs.
But fortunately, he has a loving group chat. Even though he is a country boy with little knowledge, his group members will comfort him instead of mocking him, especially this [Cypress Tree], who is really kind and enthusiastic.
Lin Guantang expressed his gratitude to him in a private message. He was even happier and more excited than Lin Guantang, the person who was rescued. He said things like "I didn't expect you to say thank you to me. It feels quite novel." Although it felt weird - isn't saying thank you popular in the imperial capital?
In short, when Lin Guantang read the long paragraph of encouragement sent by classmate Yige Baishu, he felt a warm feeling and made a prompt decision. Other subjects could be discussed later, but the so-called archery class must be taken.
But before making up my mind, perhaps I need to seriously ask myself: in the imperial capital... are bows and arrows really no longer necessary?
Thinking of this, Lin Guantang followed the advice of a cypress tree and added Zhen, who was good at archery, in private chat. He originally thought that Zhen was a cold and aloof senior, after all, he had not seen him speak all night, but he did not expect that he would quickly accept Lin Guantang's friend request.
But it was just passed.
From the current perspective, if Lin Guantang does not take the initiative to ask something, the other party will probably not take the initiative to talk to him.
But how do you take the initiative to say the first sentence?
Lin Guantang sent a tentative message.
[Haitang]: Hello, senior. I didn’t expect you also like bows and arrows [happy]
…
This dry greeting...was indeed ignored-_-||.
After waiting for five or six minutes without any response from the other party, Lin Guantang reflected on himself and decided to ask the question in a different way.
[Haitang]: Senior, do you think that the art of archery has truly become obsolete and should be completely discarded? [Confused]
Huo Shizhen looked at the message he sent. If he put himself in his shoes and judged it from the perspective of a professional spy, it was simply the worst possible pick-up line.
Huo Shizhen replied expressionlessly.
【zhen】: Do you think people over 100 years old should die out?
[Haitang]: How can this be!
Lin Guantang was immediately shocked when he heard his words. Although there are not many people who can live to be a hundred years old...but you can't force people to die. He also felt puzzled. What does this have to do with the topic they are talking about now?
The other party didn't let him wonder for too long and sent him the follow-up content.
[zhen]: That's it. People who are left over from the last era are still thinking about how to stand out all day long. Why should we have those unnecessary worries about things created by humans?
Lin Guantang: ...
Lin Guantang thought for a while before he understood the connection between the two.
A hundred years ago, this world experienced a disaster that could have destroyed the world. After the disaster, the human race, which originally had only two genders, male and female, experienced a second gender differentiation. As the disaster was finally overcome, the world officially entered a new era of ABO gender division.
But just entering a new era does not mean that everything is new. Including human beings, we have only entered a new era from an old era - so this is what Senior Zhen wants to tell me.
It was to comfort Lin Guantang and not worry too much about the so-called new and old eras. It didn't mean that the new era meant it was completely outdated and useless.
But I always feel that there is a hint of sarcasm in the words!
But, after all, the other party was well-intentioned.
So Lin Guantang thanked him sincerely, but the other party continued to read the message without replying.
He is indeed a senior who goes for the aloof approach, the kind of senior who is cold on the outside but warm on the inside.
Lin Guantang stared at their chat for a while, and quietly changed his note to a cool senior who was cold on the outside but warm on the inside.
I want to remind myself that although the other party is happy to answer questions if I have any, he is not a warm person, and I can't be too tactless. If there are no important questions in the future, I should not bother this cold senior.
Lin Guantang guessed that the other party was probably someone who didn't like daily greetings, like good morning, good night, or have you eaten? These meaningless daily conversations would definitely annoy the senior if he heard them every day.
Guessed wrong.
6:00 AM
【zhen>>Note: A cold-hearted senior student with a cold exterior】: Are you awake?
At six o'clock in the morning, the sun had not yet risen completely, and Lin Guantang had not yet gotten up to wash, but Senior Zhen's greetings had arrived on time.
Lin Guantang thought he had misread it. After seeing it clearly, although he didn't understand why the other party sent a message, he still quickly replied -
The senior is so aloof that he took the initiative to send me a message early in the morning. It may be that he has something very important to say.
