Ye Zhou took off his gaming helmet, quietly pushed the wheelchair, and opened the door quietly, wanting to take a peek at his father's study to see if he was at home.
Poking his head out of the door, he saw Father Ye standing in the corridor on the third floor and looking at Ye Zhou's door hesitantly. Their eyes collided, and they were immediately extremely embarrassed.
"Ahem, I'm out to eat," Ye Zhou said.
Father Ye also put his hands behind his back and said, "I'm also out to eat."
The third floor of Ye Zhou's house is the bedroom, the study is on the second floor, and the restaurant is on the first floor. Father Ye is a very self-disciplined person. Unless he is resting, he rarely stays in the bedroom. Usually at home, he is either the study or the living room on the first floor. It is unlikely that he is on the third floor during this time period.
Father Ye saw that Ye Zhou's eyes kept drifting to the second floor, coughed lightly and said, "Let's eat first."
Although Ye Zhou can walk with a cane, it is difficult for him to go up and down the stairs, so he will still use a wheelchair for the time being. Father Ye pushed Ye Zhou's wheelchair into the elevator. At this time, the lunch on the first floor was ready. Mother Ye was not at home today, and the father and son finished the lunch silently and quickly.
When eating, Ye Zhou always looked at Father Ye hesitantly, as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't speak in the end. After the meal, he supported his wheelchair and said, "I'm going back to my room to rest."
"I'll accompany you upstairs." Father Ye also put down his chopsticks and pushed Ye Zhou all the way back to his bedroom.
After entering the bedroom, Father Ye didn't leave, and even locked the door behind him.
He pushed Ye Zhou to the desk, took a chair and sat opposite Ye Zhou, crossed his hands on the table, and said calmly, "Do you have something to say to me?"
Ye Zhou glanced at his father guilty, not knowing where to start.
Father Ye said: "Did you recognize me in the game?"
Father Ye is such a shrewd old fritter, he has a panoramic view of Ye Zhou and Dugu Zhuo's unreal performances.
Due to his health, Ye's father has been paying special attention to Ye Zhou. He knows every little move of Ye Zhou clearly, how could he not see the strangeness in the game. Coupled with Ye Zhou's furtive look after going offline, how could Father Ye not guess that he had revealed himself.
"Yes." Father Ye confessed so frankly that Ye Zhou could only nod in agreement.
"Do you know why I used Ye Jian's account to log in to the game?" Father Ye asked.
Ye Zhou said: "If it was before yesterday, I would guess that you wanted to find out the reason why the game made me recover. After yesterday, maybe my cousin told you something?"
Father Ye nodded: "You are quite clear-headed and able to guess my motives. You are a smart child. Since you have already guessed that the account number is me, you are still cuddling with Dugu Zhuo, and your eyes are glued to him. Yes. Can't help it?"
Seeing what Ye Zhou was about to say, Father Ye raised his hand to stop him: "Don't use the trick of fooling Ye Jian against me. I have eyes, so you can tell if it's true or not."
"Since you've seen it, then I won't hide it anymore. Dugu Zhuo and I will be together forever!" Ye Zhou looked at Father Ye firmly.
Father Ye was not angry at all, he let go of his clasped hands, tapped his fingertips on the table a few times, and then said: "Let's not mention whether you are too impulsive to talk about your life at such a young age, he knows your physical condition and family status?"
"I know." Ye Zhou said.
"Okay, then let me assume that he is willing to accept your physical condition for the time being, and he is not a person who is greedy for power, but just wants to fall in love with you. But since you have such determination, why do you use that kind of excuse to prevaricate Ye Jian? I Knowing you, you think of spending your whole life together, you should hope to get the blessings of your family, right? But you not only didn’t mention it, but also chose to hide it, why?”
Father Ye's series of questions pointed to the core of the question, and Ye Zhou had no way to answer it. He hesitated for a long time, so he could only say, "I want to tell you when I meet Dugu Zhuo in reality."
Unexpectedly, Father Ye firmly said: "Impossible, you should know who you want to meet, and you must go out with our help in full armor. If you really want to see him, you will definitely get our permission first, right? ?”
Ye Zhou: "..."
"After so many years, it is a miracle that you have grown so big. When I knew your physical condition, I thought about protecting this child for the rest of my life. I will get him whatever he wants. Even if you find a boyfriend, Even though I am shocked, I will choose to accept it, and it is impossible to object, and you know this." Father Ye said.
"Yes, I know." Ye Zhou lowered his head slowly, a little afraid to face Father Ye's eyes.
"You two are in love, you are even willing to tell him about your physical condition, and you know that I won't object, but you came up with such a lame reason to deceive Ye Jian, this is wrong, you must have some secrets from me," Father Ye said sharply. said.
Ye Zhou felt that his father's eyes were like x-rays, and his thoughts could not be hidden in front of him.
Father Ye tried to use Ye Zhou's thinking to analyze: "You are in love, tell your family, out of excessive care and protection for you, we will definitely investigate the other party after agreeing.
"Of course, we won't do anything that violates privacy. Most people have to know the other person's situation in advance when they go on a blind date and get married. If we want to know more about the character of the person you like, you shouldn't be too disgusted. If you Think your lover is very good, and even can't wait to introduce him, let us know him. Don't you think he is not good enough?"
"Of course not!" Ye Zhou immediately defended Dugu Zhuo.
"So in your heart, he is good enough and loves you enough, but you still don't want us to see him, or you don't want us to see him in reality outside the game." Father Ye said.
Ye Zhou was sweating profusely, and even thought about surrendering with his gun.
"I really want to tell you, but I'm afraid you won't believe me, and I don't know if such a thing can be told to you." Ye Zhou said sincerely to his father.
Father Ye suddenly changed the subject: "I remember that the artificial intelligence of this game is very autonomous, and the game company has nothing to do with it, otherwise we would not be able to successfully buy this company. I even suspected that your body is gradually recovering. This AI has a relationship."
"Why did you mention this all of a sudden?" Ye Zhou felt like his father had seen through him.
"When Dugu Zhuo completed the task, the two options given by the system were extremely biased towards Dugu Zhuo, and the other option seemed to have to be included. It very much rejected the eagle dog option. A system that cannot be controlled by a game company, why would it favor someone? Player?" Father Ye frowned, as if thinking of something he couldn't even believe.
Ye Zhou gave up resisting and said directly, "What do you think?"
Father Ye sighed: "You clearly guessed that I was the person under Yangfan Yuanhang's account. At first, you tried to keep a distance from Dugu Zhuo as much as possible, but later when Dugu Zhuo and Dugu Yue recognized each other, you rushed towards him desperately. As other teammates said, Dugu Zhuo is just playing a game NPC, why are you so excited? Don't even care about my sight
"My guess may be a bit fanciful, but what happened to you recently has long been beyond what modern science can solve. Let me make a bold guess. Maybe it's not that you don't want us to see Dugu Zhuo, but that we can't see him at all
"Xiaozhou, are you in love with a game npc with self-awareness?"
Father Ye's precise guess pointed directly at Ye Zhou's heart. He had no way to cover up the fact, so he could only say frankly, "You guessed half right."
"What about the remaining half?" Father Ye's eyes fell on the indoor rehabilitation equipment, and a thought suddenly arises, "The old fairy who gave you the elixir in the game is Dugu Zhuo?"
Father Ye almost guessed the matter by guessing, and Ye Zhou no longer tried to hide it. He simply told the story of Dugu Zhuo's coming from another world. He concealed the entanglement between the two in his previous life, and only Saying that he is in good health is indeed Dugu Zhuo's cure.
Father Ye was just guessing boldly, but he didn't expect the facts to be even more exciting than what was written in the novel.
He thought it was ridiculous, but when he saw Ye Zhou's ruddy complexion and his physical condition, he felt that it was true.
Father Ye paced back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back. He wanted to ask something a few times, but stopped again. It seemed that he had already guessed the answer. Ye Zhou followed Father Ye's gaze back and forth.
"Okay, I'll take a ten thousand step back and fully accept what you said, but what will you do in the future? Do you plan to keep dating him in the game, or do you want to go with him... to the world of comprehension?" Father Ye asked.
Ye Zhou felt his father's anxiety and calmed him down: "Dugu Zhuo said he has a way to come to the real world, and he can do it after the fifth main storyline. But he has no identity and household registration, so he needs your help..."
Speaking of this, Ye Zhou suddenly felt that it would be good to tell his father. He has never been in contact with society, so he definitely doesn't know how to help Dugu Zhuo obtain an official status in modern society.
"He can still come out?! Then can he fly after he comes out?" Father Ye couldn't keep calm anymore, he was about to shout Po Tian, and people who didn't know thought he was reprimanding Ye Zhou.
"No, Dugu Zhuo said that there is no aura in the modern society, he can't cultivate, he will become an ordinary person and spend his life with me." Ye Zhou said and turned into a love brain, showing a sweet smile.
"How does he know that modern society has no aura? He has been here?"
Ye Zhou nodded guiltily.
Father Ye suddenly thought about what happened before: "It was the night when you locked the door and turned off the surveillance camera, right? That day I thought you were secretly watching some small movie or AV at home, but in fact you hid Dugu Zhuo in the... In your quilt?!"
"No, it's in the bed. He is a holographic projection and can pass through the bed board. He hasn't come here physically, and I can't touch him." As he spoke, Ye Zhou felt a little wronged and fell in love. But they can't even hold hands in the real world.
"Don't worry about love affairs, let me think about it, let me think about it..." Father Ye tried his best to calm himself down, thinking about what Ye Zhou said.
At this point, the issue of Dugu Zhuo's identity is already a trivial matter. Ye Zhou has thousands of ways to let Dugu Zhuo return to China as a returnee; whether Dugu Zhuo is willing to accompany Ye Zhou for the rest of his life is also a trivial matter. If you are helpless, you can probably only live in Ye's house.
The biggest question now is whether he can accept a person from another world.
"That... Dad," Ye Zhou hesitated for a long time, and finally couldn't help but said, "Can you think about it on the way to the hospital? I think there is a strange position in the body."
Father Ye immediately put away all his thoughts and asked in concern, "What's wrong with you?"
"It's not uncomfortable, it's weird, and I can't get used to it." Ye Zhou looked down.
Following his line of sight, Father Ye immediately understood what Ye Zhou meant. He was surprised and delighted at the moment. He didn't care whether he could accept that Dugu Zhuo was from another world. As long as he could cure Xiao Zhou, not everyone could accept it. !
