Yunli: "You can decide..."

"If I didn't have my heart set on something, I would have arranged for Fu Shize to be with me." He Jiameng looked distressed and looked at Yunli with confusion, "You have seen this before."

"Then Fu Shize at least has a good-looking face. You feel good when you take the boxed lunch every day, don't you think?" She sighed heavily, pretending to hate the iron.

After explaining the matter, He Jiameng went back to his office.

Yunli looked through the documents on the workstation, most of which were instructions for use of some products. The files were quickly turned over, and she became idle.

After sitting at the workstation for an hour, Yunli reviewed today's news from hot topics to not-so-hot news, but still no one else came.

Just when she was about to get bored, Fang Yuning notified her on her mobile phone to go to the EAW Experience Hall to help repair the equipment. There would be engineers at the venue. This was not the work of Yunli's department. Fang Yuning probably lent it to other departments for use without any arrangements for her for the time being.

It's just like He Jiameng said, maybe he's just doing odd jobs here and there.

The EAW experience hall was closed to the public this morning. Yunli looked through the glass door and saw that it was dark inside, with particles of dust flickering in the narrow beam of light.

After using He Jiameng's employee card to open the door, Yunli opened the switch box at the door and found that all the switches had been opened. It was estimated that the engineer was already inside.

There was silence in the venue, and for some reason, she also relaxed her steps.

After walking around on the first floor, at the door of the corner room, Yunli heard the sound of a blunt object being dragged on the ground. It sounded like someone was already working inside.

Yunli knocked on the door and said politely: "Hello, I am the new intern. Sister Yuning sent me to assist you in repairing the equipment."

No one came to open the door, but the sound of knocking and moving equipment could be heard inside.

Yunli felt ignored.

The people inside seemed to be pulling louder on purpose.

Knocking on the door again is like trying to confront the other party.

As she struggled with whether to keep knocking on the door.

"Come in."

Yunli opened the door. Only a small beige light was turned on in the room. The air was dry and the smell of wood products and plastic glue was mixed together. There was a figure squatting in the corner, his sleeves half rolled up. He rummaged through the tools in the tool box, picked up a screwdriver, compared it, and then threw it aside.

"Come to EAW?" Fu Shize's voice was low and echoed in the closed room.

In the workplace, Yunli switched back to her honorific and spoke respectfully: "Yes, thank you for your suggestion last time."

Before coming, Yunli had imagined many scenes of meeting Fu Shize. After much hesitation, she still talked about her dismissal from the technical department.

"I was transferred to the human resources department, which is not in line with my major, and my personality is..." Yunli felt like he was risking his own life, "Some companies are afraid..."

Fu Shize stopped moving his hands and raised his head. The beige light hit his face. He didn't seem to believe it: "Really?"

Yunli was stunned when he asked: "Look, doesn't it look like it?"

Fu Shi stared at her for a while, as if he was seriously thinking about her question.

This look made Yunli wonder if he was recalling her request for contact information. Originally, Yunli wanted to get some career advice from Fu Shize, but now she just hoped that the topic would end soon.

"Sister Yuning asked me to come over and repair things with you." Yunli trotted up to him and tried to change the subject, only to notice a frosted bag of croissants and a cup of coffee on the ground.

After all, he didn't know how to repair things, so Yunli felt a little scared.

"Is there anything I can do to help?" Yunli looked at the breakfast on the ground, "Your breakfast is cold, you can have breakfast first."

Looking from Yunli's side, Fu Shi was wearing simple blue work clothes, with yellow electrician gloves occupying a large area.

"It's okay." Fu Shi didn't let her interfere, put two light bulbs in his pocket and climbed up the ladder.

The ladder didn't look very stable. Even a person of Fu Shize's size would make a loud noise when climbing up. Yunli subconsciously held on to both sides of the ladder.

Fu Shi replaced the two spotlights on the ceiling. He held the outer eaves of the bulbs and unscrewed them, put them in his pocket, and soon replaced them with new ones.

After coming down from the ladder, he took off his gloves and threw them aside. He went to the door and turned on the spotlight. The originally dark ceiling became much brighter.

At the door, Yunli was still holding the ladder in the distance, and Fu Shi reminded her: "There is no one on the ladder."

Yunli was stunned and let go of her hand in embarrassment.

Fu Shi picked up the brown paper bag from the ground and opened it several times. He took a bite of bread and took two steps forward to check the other spotlights.

"Let me check. You have breakfast first." Yun Li said warmly, while Fu Shize stopped and looked back at her.

Did she say something wrong just now? Or is there something dirty on her face? Several thoughts passed through Yunli's mind, but when Fu Shi did not move, she said nervously, "You have worked hard all morning, I will do the rest."

Unexpectedly, Fu Shize just took another bite of bread and imitated her tone: "No need for your help."

“…”

Yunli learned the lesson: "Then you have breakfast first..."

The other lighting equipment was basically normal. Yunli basically wrote down a few minor problems on paper, while Fu Shi followed her slowly.

The presence at the rear put pressure on Yunli. She pretended to be calm and hesitated, "Then are we doing anything else today?"

Fu Shize hummed, paused for a while, and asked her again: "What do you want to do?"

Yunli paused.

The question asked - what could she want to do?

This isn't the right thing to ask him! !

Fortunately, Fu Shize finished his breakfast and didn't care about her answer. He told her that the remaining work this morning was to test the other gaming equipment in the venue.

It was something she could do, Yunli breathed a sigh of relief.

Compared with when she first arrived, EAW has added some new theme venues with classic movie themes, as well as some street entertainment projects such as facial expression imitation lottery, blind box games, etc. Yunli was not familiar with the venue yet, so she followed Fu Shize with a folder. After each test of a device, Yunli will tick the corresponding position on the checklist.

For the rest, the two of them split up, with Yunli in charge of the expression-imitating lottery machine. This machine uses facial expression recognition technology. The screen will prompt the player with the emotion they need to imitate, and then the camera will record the player's expression and identify it. The higher the matching score, the richer the prizes in the lottery.

Yunli had never played this before, and she didn't know if it was really that sensitive.

She sat in front of the machine, her face appeared on the screen, and different color bars were used to mark the scores of various emotions and the total score in the upper left corner.

She clicked "Start Game" and the screen prompt said: elated.

Yunli smiled slightly, a yellow rectangle framed her face on the screen, and then the bright advertising font displayed the total score - 20 points.

Isn't this... too difficult

Yunli clicked again, and after the yellow frame appeared, she immediately raised her eyebrows exaggeratedly, widened her eyes, and grinned, so that even her smile muscles could be clearly seen.

Several opened gift boxes pop up on the screen—with a score of 100, you surpass 99% of people.

It's too exaggerated.

For those who have no emotions, this game is not very friendly.

After checking the corresponding position, Yunli operated on the screen and was about to shut down.

Another thought suddenly popped up in my mind -

As soon as the idea came up, Yunli felt that she seemed to be going a little too far.

Fu Shize happened to have finished the test and came over to her side.

Yunli took a step back and placed the folder down on her thigh.

"There seems to be something wrong with this machine, and the detection is not very accurate." Yunli said while observing Fu Shize's expression.

She... isn't lying, right

This machine is indeed not very accurate. She has to show an exaggerated expression to get high scores.

After convincing herself, Yunli felt a little hopeful, waiting for Fu Shize's reaction.

"It's always been like this." Fu Shize yawned without interest and poked at the screen.

A few words popped up - elated.

Fu Shize's face was in the center of the screen, looking sinister and solemn. His straight jawline finally relaxed, as if he was trying very hard to smile.

A purple-gray box appears on the screen.

The two scores of "Anger" and "Sadness" in the upper left corner skyrocketed.

—10 points, you exceed 5% of people.

It's indeed quite accurate.

Yunli thought. But Fu Shize didn't show any sign of smiling in order to get high scores, and Yunli's original little plan didn't work either.

"No." Fu Shize walked aside directly, put a big X on the test form, closed the pen cap and hung it in his breast pocket.

Yunli quickly smiled and comforted, "It's just that it's not accurate. We can find the manufacturer to repair it."

At this moment, Yunli's face happened to be captured by the camera.

The score jumped directly from 10 points to 100 points.

“…”

It's like, one second you told your friend who failed in the exam that it's okay, everyone did poorly in the exam, and the next second the head teacher loudly announced on the podium that you won the first place in the grade. '

"Look, you are still more than 5% of the people." Yunli was a little incoherent, "5% multiplied by the total population, that is also a huge number."

Fu Shize glanced at her: "You are quite optimistic."

“…”

Fortunately, Fu Shize was already accustomed to this machine and was very self-aware.

After checking the equipment, it was already lunch break. The two opened the gate of the small room and were about to leave. Yunli noticed that there was an arcade machine at the door of the outermost room. The introduction said that the VR game in the room was adapted from a Classic arcade game.

When Yunli was in elementary school, arcade games were all the rage. After school, Yunli often secretly plays with her classmates, promising to play together for the rest of their lives.

At that time, she didn't have much pocket money, so she saved one or two yuan every week. Later, when Yunye went to elementary school, Yunli saved her living expenses and waited until the weekend for the two of them to play together.

Later, as technology advanced with each passing day, Yunli and Yunye would continue to play those games on the game console when they returned home. And the former friends also disappeared in time.

Seeing Yunli stopped in front of the arcade, Fu Shi stood there waiting for a while and asked, "Would you like to try it?"

Yunli: "Hey, is that okay?"

Fu Shize hummed.

Yunli was embarrassed, "I often went to play with my classmates when I was a child. Arcades were very popular at that time, and there were several games in them that I was familiar with." Realizing that they had been chatting about her own affairs, Yunli asked again: "When were you a kid? Have you ever played this?"

"I'm not playing." Fu Shize responded.

Yunli: "Then what did you usually play when you were a child?"

Fu Shize: "I mainly play with my nephew."

Yunli: "Oh... Then what are you and Fu Zhengchu playing?"

Fu Shize: "He likes to play house."

Yunli: "?"

Fu Shi opened the switch and placed a dozen small motorcycle devices in the room. Fu Shi went to the backstage to remotely control and activate the two machines. The two agreed that she would be on the left and Fu Shi would be on the right.

Yunli manipulated in front of the screen and selected '2p' (two players). The next step was to choose the relationship between the two people. She would probably choose a copy of the game based on this.

Several options popped up on the screen, and Yunli was stunned. Only parents and children, spouses, and couples could choose.

Clicking on the other two really aroused people's imagination, so Yunli decisively chose 'parents and children'.

Fu Shize: "..."

Not knowing how to explain it to make her motives seem legitimate, Yunli said sarcastically: "I think this word is more accurate to describe our relationship..."

Fu Shize: "..."

Remind her: “There’s a next page.”

“…”

Yunli just wanted to get herself a pair of high-profile glasses, but she didn't even see such a big right button. Since it was locked, Yunli could not perform other operations and directly pressed the next page.

The next page asks them to choose the machine the guardian will operate.

Yunli highly doubted that the designer of this game was afraid that there would not be enough negative reviews, so how could he design such an outrageous entry interface.

Yunli consciously set Fu Shize as his father and himself as his daughter.

Fu Shize didn't speak, but his gaze seemed to penetrate her back, which made Yunli feel scared. She awkwardly suggested: "How about I become the mother, and you become..." Yunli refused to say "son" "Say two words.

Fu Shize: "..."

Fortunately, the subsequent operations were relatively smooth. After making the basic settings, the two entered the official game. During the game, you need to ride on a motorcycle, and a motorized device is installed underneath to simulate the driving effect.

Yunli had never worn any equipment, so she didn't know what to do after she climbed onto the motorcycle. Seeing this, Fu Shi got out of the car and walked to her side to remind her: "It will shake a lot later."

He leaned over and tapped a pedal near her shoe with his finger, "Press here."

Yunli put her feet on the footrests obediently.

Fu Shize turned his head and asked her, "Tie it up for you?"

This sentence made people blush, and Yunli hummed like a mosquito.

It was different from the first time I went to EAW. At that time, Yunli's emotions were more shrouded in fear. At this moment, she stared at Fu Shize as Fu Shize wrapped the fixed rope around her ankle and tightened it. Unconsciously, her eyes moved up and stayed on his collarbone.

Just after installing the device on Yunli, Fu Shi noticed her motionless gaze and raised his eyes: "Is it too tight?"

Yunli blushed: "No."

After putting on the safety rope on the other side of her, Fu Shi returned to his seat. After the two of them put on VR glasses and entered the game, a motorcycle shop appeared in front of them.

Yunli saw someone next to him, wearing a pair of sunglasses and tight sportswear. He was probably Fu Chize from the game. The other party nodded to her after choosing the model of motorcycle.

The game has entered a countdown.

Doesn’t she have to choose a motorcycle? Yunli felt confused.

When the game officially started, Yunli discovered the problem—

Since the parent-child mode was selected, the system defaulted to the fact that she and Fu Shi were riding a motorcycle.

She sat behind Fu Shize, with his back in front of her.
