After replying to this post, Tao Zhiyue browsed other sections and browsed through all the big news that happened today.
Tao Zhiyue, who had been full of emotions all night, felt a little sleepy. He looked at the time in the upper right corner of the computer and saw that it was almost ten o'clock.
Tao Zhiyue's biological clock is very regular. He should be ready to take a shower and go to bed at this time, but at the moment he was about to close the web page, a new reply reminder suddenly popped up.
He yawned and opened it casually.
[User 726397816 (Owner): Hello, Dr. Tao, this has been going on for more than a month. I am really worried. Is this the scope of business of your hospital? can you help me? ]
Tao Zhiyue:…
Tao Zhiyue's eyes widened in confusion, and he unconsciously stopped turning off his phone.
Why did he know all these words taken apart, but couldn't understand them together at all? Who is Dr. Tao? What business scope? Help who
Tao Zhiyue, who was confused, followed the message reminder and clicked in. When he saw the original post, he realized that it was a phishing post made by the shameless straight man who tricked him into replying.
He vaguely remembered his very "friendly" reply.
Tao Zhiyue was speechless and started typing.
Director Tao of the No. 7 Mental Hospital of Shanbei City: Brother, I mean you are sick...
Before his reply was sent, a new message came.
[User 726397816 (Owner): Dr. Tao, are you still online? Sorry, a friend mentioned in the post just now came to my house and insisted on staying. I had a hard time persuading him to leave, so I didn't reply to you in time. I'm sorry. ]
[User 726397816 (Owner): I don’t know why other people’s replies are scolding me, or saying that I fish. I looked up the meaning of fishing and then I understood that I really wasn’t lying. You are the only one in the post who cares about my situation. Whether you are still here or not, I want to say thank you. ]
Seeing the particularly sincere reply from user 726397816, Tao Zhiyue actually felt a little guilty.
He deleted the direct taunt he was going to send in the input box, and hesitated with his fingers on the keyboard, not knowing how to reply to the poster who was too involved in the drama.
In any case, this person was very polite, didn't say anything outrageous, and seemed like he really didn't understand Internet buzzwords.
What if this person is telling the truth...
Tao Zhiyue suddenly remembered that he was in the world of a bloody novel. In the middle and later stages of the novel, the protagonist Shen Nian had about seven or eight handsome and wealthy suitors. light.
He suddenly felt that it was not impossible for the plot of four bosses to fall in love with a straight man at the same time.
So Tao Zhi, who was completely sleepless, gave a tentative reply.
[Director Tao of the No. 7 Mental Hospital of Shanbei City: It doesn’t matter. Too many people like to post and deceive people, so everyone will be more excited when they encounter it. ]
A few minutes later.
[User 726397816 (Owner): Dr. Tao, you are still here! Great, can you help me? I'm really not a liar! You should be a psychiatrist, I can give you a consultation for a fee! ]
[User 726397816 (Owner): I didn’t mean to look down on homosexuals! I respect every orientation and know that it is not a pathology, but I have never been in love and have no experience in dealing with emotional problems. They are all too enthusiastic and a simple rejection is useless, but I am afraid of saying the wrong thing and hurting others. They have been so worried that they can't sleep well this month and have nightmares every day. It would be great if Dr. Tao could help me, my pp number is 6728f369z]
Tao Zhiyue felt even more guilty, but he also had a subtle feeling.
He has seen many straight men who are at a distance or full of contempt for homosexuals. When facing heterosexuals, there are very few people who can treat them peacefully.
As for user 726397816, this was the first time he encountered someone who was deeply troubled but still cared about the other person's feelings.
If it's a lie, it's too much to pretend. What is this person trying to do
If it is true, this straight male poster should be a very kind person, and such people should be treated equally.
A moment later, Tao Zhiyue logged into the app by accident, searched and added friends.
The other party's profile picture is a very beautiful scenery photo, and his nickname is hr.
It seems that he is a big brother who works in human resources. Maybe their company is relatively large and he usually comes into contact with a lot of employees. So it is not surprising that such a considerate, gentle and kind HR brother is liked by several gay elites in the industry. Many gay guys with rich emotional experience. In the end, you will return to your true nature and fall in love with this kind of person.
Tao Zhiyue began to automatically complete the plot, and the more he thought about it, the more it made sense.
The friend application was approved immediately, and the HR guy was obviously waiting online.
[hr: Dr. Tao, is that you? ]
Tao Zhiyue's pp nickname is the character Tao, which is easy to recognize.
Just as he was about to explain that he was actually not a doctor, another message came from the other side.
[HR: Several people came to join me just now. I thought it was you, but they came up and scolded me for being sick. ]
[Tao: Please delete that level of reply quickly and don’t expose personal information. ]
[hr: Okay, thank you Dr. Tao, I will delete it immediately. ]
[hr: I rarely go online, and I just registered for this forum. I came across this forum when I was searching online for what to do if someone of the same sex pursues me. ]
Sky Forum is the most trafficked online community in China, and every section in it is very popular. Especially the emotional life section is filled with a large number of eye-catching emotional stories. People often ask netizens here for help with all kinds of weird relationship problems.
Tao Zhiyue felt more at ease. This HR guy was probably older and didn't have much contact with the world of young people. No wonder he didn't know anything about buzzwords.
He also remembered that HR brother said that he had never been in love, so an image of a tired and lost middle-aged man gradually emerged in Tao Zhiyue's mind: he was still single at his age, being pestered by people of the same sex who were not interested, because he was too young. I'm easy to talk to, so I can't refuse. I probably don't have anyone I can communicate with in my life. I finally found my way online and posted a request for help, but I was attacked by netizens.
Although the eldest brother said that he was handsome and rich, Tao Zhiyue, who was completely absorbed in the plot, had subconsciously ignored it.
Brother HR's life is already so miserable, so it's completely understandable that he would like to beautify his image a little bit.
Tao Zhiyue even felt a little pity.
[Tao: From now on, don’t post your contact information casually online, and don’t expose any real information about yourself. Human flesh searches are very common now and can easily affect your real life. ]
It showed that it was typing. It took a while before the message was sent.
[hr: Dr. Tao, you are such a good person. ]
[hr: You have always used the real name of the hospital and have not been harassed by netizens? ]
[hr: It must be because Dr. Tao usually comforts and enlightens others. Everyone thinks you are a good doctor. ]
Tao Zhiyue, who was collecting good guy cards like crazy today, hesitated to speak, and his hands trembled slightly when he wanted to type.
In the end, he gave up the explanation because he really couldn't bear to let this innocent and pure HR brother suffer another blow.
Forget it, just be a doctor. Anyway, he works voluntarily and doesn't get paid.
[Tao: There is no need to pay as you mentioned before, because my... professional direction cannot help you. ]
[Tao: But I also like men, so maybe I can help you analyze the behavior of your friends and see how you can completely reject them. ]
This was the first time Tao Zhiyue confessed his sexual orientation to others. Although they were anonymous across the Internet, he still became nervous after the news was sent out, and his palms began to sweat.
He had mustered up the courage countless times to speak to his parents who kept urging him to find a girlfriend, but the words stopped when he reached his lips.
He was afraid of seeing the disappointed eyes of his parents, and even more afraid of being treated as an alien from now on.
I don’t know why today, but this line of words flowed out of my fingers naturally.
Maybe the secret had been hidden for too long, and there was absolutely no one to tell in this world. Suddenly, when he met someone who seemed very honest and sincere, he couldn't help but tell the truth.
After thinking about it, Tao Zhiyue added a sentence pretending to be nonchalant.
[Tao: If you mind, forget it. ]
Unexpectedly, HR responded quickly, as if there was no need to think at all.
[hr: Dr. Tao, you are so brave. You are willing to tell your story in order to help others. ]
[hr: I hope everything goes well for Dr. Tao and that he can be happy every day. ]
[hr: Don’t care about other people’s opinions, just follow your own heart. ]
Tao Zhiyue stared at the screen blankly. The few lines of words were very simple and cliché, but they were full of gentle kindness.
No wonder so many people of the same sex fall in love with this straight man who looks a bit old-fashioned.
[Tao: Thank you^-^]
In the context of middle-aged people, what does solemnity mean
Tao Zhiyue almost opened the search engine and searched for the meaning of solemnity.
Before his fingers moved, Tao Zhiyue decisively commanded his brain to control his body and stop this stupid and illiterate behavior.
If the peach and idiot during the day were completely accidental, then the HR's name at night should have been changed after imitating him...
Tao Zhiyue lacks romantic literary talent, and has always been given random names. In pp and technical communities, he is simply called Tao, and in entertainment forums and games that are not suitable for linking to his real name, Tao Zhiyue will be stiff. The naming process took a long time.
In the end, I came up with common and uncreative names like a hedgehog and a peach.
So when he saw the silly joke about Director
Tao Zhiyue envied people with the surname Bo for a while, because they could name all their usernames as pineapples, which were neutral and easy to remember, while peaches always looked like girls.
It can be seen from this that the world with abandoned names is really sad.
So, why did HR imitate him and change this boring name? Why do you ask him if he has a boyfriend
Blushing and his heart beating for a long time, Tao Zhiyue still spurned himself and turned on Qiandu.
[Zhengzheng: a Chinese word that means careful and serious. ]
Good, he was really retarded today.
Tao Zhiyue buried his head deeply, shameless to face his lowered IQ.
He played "HR is a straight man who likes girls" on a loop in his mind, but he still couldn't hide his excitement.
No matter what, he felt indescribably happy at this moment.
Tao Zhiyue got up and ran to the bathroom, washed his face with cold water, and drank a large glass of ice water, forcing himself to physically cool down and regain some composure.
After he came back, he sat upright, took a screenshot of the game screen without changing his expression, and stored it in the folder filled with details about the little hedgehog's life.
Having your first neighbor is certainly something worth remembering, and you should take a screenshot of it.
He didn't want to save HR's answer.
[A brown bear: I'm here! ]
[A Brown Bear: Can I come visit my new neighbor now? ]
As if Tao Zhiyue on the other side had reacted, there was no movement, and HR sent a careful test.
[A brown bear: Doctor Tao, are you offline? ]
[a brown bear:/poke]
Tao Zhiyue felt slightly guilty and made a random excuse.
[A hedgehog: Sorry, I just answered a phone call. ]
[A hedgehog: I see, your island is beautiful. ]
[A hedgehog: /花花]
[A brown bear: Dr. Tao, can I call you later? ]
Tao Zhiyue's eyes widened.
Then the screen went black, and when Tao Zhiyue regained consciousness, he found that he had reflexively pressed the power off button.
Okay, this time it's really offline.
Local physical cooling was not enough. Tao Zhiyue walked into the bathroom with empty steps, took off his clothes stiffly, turned on the shower, and let himself be swallowed by the dense water.
Why... call him
Tao Zhiyue held his head covered with white shampoo foam and rubbed his hair mechanically, feeling like a robot that had failed due to water damage.
When he came out again, he stayed far away from the computer and mobile phone, as if he was avoiding some terrible allergen.
Tao Zhiyue got into the bed that used to make him feel sleepy whenever he touched it. He closed his eyes, but his mind was filled with what HR had said.
After rolling back and forth countless times on the large double bed, with the thin quilt tangled around his body, Tao Zhiyue buried his face into the soft pillow, feeling like a self-heating pancake.
He suffered from insomnia for the first time.
Dr. Tao has not replied yet.
Huo Ran stood up a little nervously and paced back and forth in the hotel room, wandering around.
The drinks in the refrigerator were a bit sparse, and the bathrobe in the wardrobe didn't feel particularly good. He preferred the linen ones. The view from the floor-to-ceiling windows on the balcony was quite beautiful, overlooking most of the brightly lit Shanbei City.
Huo Ran walked back to the computer. It felt like half a day had passed, but in reality only two minutes had passed.
Dr. Tao still didn’t reply.
[A brown bear: Dr. Tao, can I call you later? ]
The private chat conversation was frozen here, and Huo Ran felt a sense of sadness.
Dr. Tao will definitely not answer the phone again...
Did he say the wrong thing
Huo Ran tried to seek help outside the venue.
[hr: Is it too much to ask a netizen to make a phone call? ]
[I can do it again:…]
[I can do it again: Brother, how obsessed are you with making phone calls? ! ! ]
[I can do it again: What should I say? I am worthy of being an antique straight man? ]
[I can do it again: No, when did you make online friends behind my back? ! ]
[I can do it again: men and women! Isn't it the old doctor from last time? ]
Huo Ran paused and began to talk about him.
[hr: Have you watched the game video? Do you like it? ]
Earlier, he sent the video to Huo Sihan, and as soon as he mentioned this, Huo Sihan's attention was immediately diverted.
[I can do it again: Feelings are all in id. ]
[I can do it again: Considering that you recorded such a long video, I reluctantly stopped pursuing that idiotic name you chose. ]
[I can do it again: So... who is the peach who is trying it out with you? Your friend? Is she a cute little sister? ]
[I can do it again: Star Eyes.jpg]
…Why does the topic still come back here
Huo Ran typed the reply a little depressed.
[hr: I won’t tell you. ]
[hr: Go to bed, good night. ]
Usually when he says he's asleep, he really means going to bed.
But today Huo Ran was not sleepy at all, and the game screen was still. He was sitting in front of the computer, his mind filled with random thoughts.
The online status of players is not displayed on Animal Island. At a certain moment, Huo Ran even wanted someone to log into the system to check if there was any malfunction.
Huo Zhendong just decided to invest in the production company of Animal Island some time ago, and now he is also a shareholder behind the game.
What if Dr. Tao's game is offline and cannot be logged in
Half an hour later, both the app and the game were completely silent, and Huo Ran gave up the idea of getting lucky.
Dr. Tao is really offline.
He must have made Dr. Tao angry.
Huo Ran turned off the computer in frustration, took a shower, turned off the lights, and then sank into the soft bed motionless.
He should have thought that Dr. Tao was a very cautious person. He had not agreed to meet with him before, and he certainly did not want to suddenly have any contact with him other than through text.
Today he was completely stunned. When he saw Dr. Tao saying that he was answering the phone, he subconsciously asked.
Huo Ran turned over, the ups and downs of the whole day still lingering in his mind.
He never thought he would fall in love with a man.
Originally, he just didn't understand why he kept thinking about Dr. Tao, and asked the driver to turn around and drive back, looking for the figure who left in a hurry.
At that time, Huo Ran got out of the car and glanced around aimlessly. The sculpture-like Jiang Nansheng also followed.
Jiang Nansheng spoke in a voice so quiet that it was almost inaudible: "Mr. Huo, have you noticed that I... you."
"..." Huo Ran wanted to say that only a blind man couldn't notice, but another sentence came out.
"Sorry, I have someone I like."
He said it very naturally and confidently, as if it was flowing directly from the bottom of his heart, without any of the confusion and weakness he used to face when facing confession.
It wasn't until that moment that Huo Ran suddenly realized what he was thinking.
He really wanted to meet Dr. Tao.
He really wanted to hear Dr. Tao's voice.
After tossing and turning for a long time, Huo Ran, still unable to fall asleep, took the mobile phone from the bedside table.
He clicked on the chat history with Huo Sihan, dug out the series of "weird" articles, and read them one by one.
The phone screen emitted a faint light, reflecting Huo Ran's nervous and solemn expression.
Regarding this abnormal behavior, he comforted himself and said: This is respecting doctors. Respecting doctors means respecting life. Who doesn't respect life
After logging into the app, Dr. Tao had indeed sent a message. Huo Ran was about to reply when he saw an unread message from Huo Zhendong in the list.
[Contented and happy: The investment in the game company in northern Shanxi has changed. After re-evaluation, it was decided to invest only 30% of the share. The derivative development has been temporarily shelved, so there is no need to send people to stay there. ]
[Content with contentment: If you want to go to northern Shanxi so much, there will be a game exhibition there next week. Go and see if there are any projects worth doing that we can control. ]
[Be content and happy: / shake hands / hold fists]
In order to encourage him to change his mobile phone, Huo Zhendong deliberately registered an app when he was young, specifically to send him messages. Unless there was something urgent, he would never take the initiative to call or send him text messages.
From this point, it can be seen that he must be Huo Zhendong's biological son.
Huo Ran, who had been suffering from homosexual harassment recently and regretted not going to the project in Chengbei City, would complain to Huo Zhendong from time to time. He didn't care much about the project, he just wanted to escape here openly and he could go on a business trip anywhere. .
Seeing Huo Zhendong say this, Huo Ran's eyes immediately lit up.
Dr. Tao is in Shanbei City, and Huo Ran also knows his work address, the No. 7 Mental Hospital in Shanbei City.
Yesterday, under the guidance of Dr. Tao, he successfully scared away Xia Xingxi, who had been pestering him for more than half a month. From now on, at least he would not have to worry about someone knocking on the door in the middle of the night. For all the reasons, he wanted to go to the hospital to thank Dr. Tao in person. He is not an official patient and does not pay, so what should he do to show his gratitude
In his wild thoughts, he was even thinking about what to write on the banner given to Dr. Tao.
Huo Ran stared at the typing input at the top of the dialog box and held his breath unconsciously.
If Dr. Tao does not object to meeting netizens, he would like to treat Dr. Tao to a meal.
It was not until five minutes later that Dr. Tao entered the message for a long time that it came.
[Tao: The weather in northern Shanxi is very good now. It will be very comfortable to come here. After you’re done, you can wander around and there are plenty of snacks. ]
[Tao: But I’m not very familiar with this place, so I can’t recommend you good places to eat, drink and have fun. I remember there are recommendations in the travel section of the Sky Forum, you can take a look. ]
The two paragraphs of reply were not long, but Huo Ran read them several times, feeling a subtle sense of loss in his heart.
Huo Ran was sure that Dr. Tao knew what he was going to say next, so he took a step ahead and politely declined this unspoken request to meet.
Huo Ran, who was stuck in depression, thought about it again. He and Dr. Tao had only known each other for a few days. A person as private as Dr. Tao would definitely not want to meet a stranger rashly.
So Huo Ran decided to make up for it.
[hr: OK, thank you Dr. Tao. ]
[hr: It’s a pity that my schedule is too busy this time, otherwise I would definitely come to thank Dr. Tao in person! ]
This time Dr. Tao returned quickly.
[Tao: You’re welcome~]
[Tao: Puppet Bear Dancing.gif]
Looking at the awkwardly twisted stuffed bear in the center of the screen, Huo Ran skillfully right-clicked to add an expression and breathed a sigh of relief.
