Hello, How Long Has This Been Going On?

Chapter 110: Extra story about Jin Shao’s adventures (bl direction)

Views:

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^-^]

Yesterday, he visited Dr. Tao's island in the game and found that Dr. Tao had not been online for a long time. The island was deserted. Seeing the little hedgehog holding a hoe, Huo Ran immediately volunteered to help.

Two animals, one big and one small, worked hard until twelve o'clock, finally restoring the island to its former vitality.

Huo Ran had not played this game for long and was immersed in the joy of building infrastructure on a single player. He even only added Huo Sihan as a friend.

This was his first time building an island together with others. The big brown bear was swinging an ax to chop down trees. His physical strength was about to bottom out. He was about to put down the ax to find something to eat. The little hedgehog brought him fruit that would increase his strength in time.

It was an amazing feeling. Huo Ran suddenly understood what attracted players to the group mode of this game.

So after Dr. Tao went offline to go to sleep, Huo Ran, who was still interested, dug out the scarf that had made Animal Island a fire a while ago. Huo Sihan had sent him the link when he tried to lure him into the trap.

There are tens of thousands of comments under the scarf, and many of the top high-profile comments are about things they encountered when playing Animal Island. Some are humorous, and most of them are full of warmth.

Huo Ran was fascinated by what he saw. He followed the recommendation in the comments and went to see the creative area of the official forum of Animal Island. There were various forms of derivative works in it. Huo Ran stared at the screen intently and clicked on one after another. New web page.

When he came to his senses, he looked at the time in the upper right corner of the computer and saw that it was already four o'clock in the morning.

Huo Ran, who didn't often stay up late, quickly turned off his computer and went to bed. In a daze, he was still thinking about the forum post he hadn't finished reading just now.

The next day he entered the company with dark circles under his eyes, calmly ignored the roses that were delivered on time, calmly accepted the eager care of his assistant Xiao Jiang, and then followed Huo Zhendong and chatted and laughed with several uncles, listening humbly. A terrible emotion for future generations.

Huo Ran, who only slept for three hours, felt like a warrior in life.

After the visit, Huo Zhendong took his old friends to continue the next trip, and Huo Ran finally relaxed.

We’re already here, why not hold a few more meetings.

After reading many players' opinions about the game in the middle of the night, Huo Ran discovered how charming the virtual game world was. He had not understood this in the past and thought that playing games was just a pastime when he was bored.

But from Dr. Tao to many other players, they are fully immersed in the game, will establish many new interpersonal relationships, and will learn knowledge and skills that seem useless in reality. Some people have made friends, Lovers and even lifelong partners, some people have developed new interests and gained unexpected opportunities.

These people who are addicted to a certain game should not be simply classified as Internet addicts. In many cases, they are looking for a second life in another world.

At a certain time, they will say goodbye to this virtual world for various reasons, but they will never forget the traces left here, which may change their real lives.

If one-way movies are the art of dreaming, then Huo Ran believes that games with interaction as the core should be the art of dreaming.

So Huo Ran called the newly formed game development department in the group and wanted to make up some temporary lessons and listen to professionals talk about games before leaving for northern Shanxi.

Previously, Huo Zhendong asked people to invest in emerging game companies everywhere, precisely to enter this blue ocean industry as soon as possible with the development of technology, which has great potential in the future.

Entering the conference room, it was the first time for many people to see the airborne vice president. Before they had time to observe the legendary second generation of a wealthy family who was born with a silver spoon in his mouth, they were quickly taken away from their thoughts by Huo Ran's barrage of questions. .

By the time the meeting, which lasted all afternoon, was over, a group of people seemed to have been squeezed dry. They could no longer recall the initial subtle envy and contempt. There was only one thought left in their hearts: He is indeed Huo Zhendong's son.

On the way to the airport, Huo Ran's brain was excited after absorbing many unfamiliar concepts. He was still not sleepy sitting in the stretch car specially arranged by his assistant.

A lot of exciting ideas and plans were floating in his mind, and he began to lose focus.

… Is the lop-eared rabbit poster in the post last night actually with her neighbor Titmouse

I haven’t finished reading the post, I’m so anxious.

Huo Ran struggled for a while, took out an antique button machine from his pocket that was incompatible with everything around him, and tried to log onto the official forum of Animal Island.

The system of this key machine is really backward. The product has been discontinued for many years, and even the original manufacturer has gone bankrupt. The system has not been updated for a long time, so the built-in browser does not support many common web page formats today.

The forum could not be accessed at all, and the jump page was blank, which made Huo Ran even more curious, as if there were a hundred cat paws scratching in his heart.

Jiang Nansheng, who was sitting across from him and secretly glanced at him, immediately handed over his mobile phone, "Mr. Huo, do you need to use mine?"

Huo Ran glanced at his face, which was still a normal color, and cautiously declined: "No, I'll just take a look."

Jiang Nansheng was a little regretful, but still tried to fight for it: "Mr. Huo, don't you change your mobile phone? Your mobile phone is too old and it is very inconvenient. If you need to change to a new model, I will have someone send it to the airport right away."

Huo Ran was silent for a moment and did not answer him directly: "I'll close my eyes and rest for a while. Call me when you get there."

He wasn't mentally prepared yet.

Although in the eyes of others, it might be strange for him to hesitate over such a trivial matter.

But for him, this is not just about changing his mobile phone. This is a habit he has maintained for ten years. It is also his longest and most persistent resistance to his father Huo Zhendong, who was once busy with his career and neglected his family.

Later, Huo Zhendong did change. He would take time to communicate with his children and no longer controlled and lectured them simply and roughly.

Those tough and rigid words sound like caring, but in fact they are perfunctory actions that require the least effort, and are often accompanied by chronic harm.

Huo Ran and Huo Sihan were still young at the time, and they thought their father was careless and harsh. However, Huo Zhendong's wife, who had spent more time with him, could no longer bear it any longer. Their love as a couple was exhausted, and they divorced as soon as Huo Ran came of age.

So Huo Ran hasn't changed his cell phone yet. This outdated old cell phone is like a symbol of the past, and he can't find an opportunity to erase it.

At eight o'clock in the evening, the plane landed.

Huo Ran slept on the plane and felt much better. The dark circles under his eyes were gone.

He rolled down the window and looked at the night in northern Shanxi. The lights were bright, the streets were full of bustling food stalls, the market was full of smoke, and the aroma of barbecue and fried rice flowed domineeringly into the wind.

Huo Ran has been to many cities at home and abroad, but this is his first time in northern Shanxi.

This time Jiang Nansheng was sitting in the passenger seat and was looking down at his phone when he suddenly turned his head in surprise.

"Mr. Huo, Mr. Huo actually posted a message!" Jiang Nansheng handed over the phone and sighed, "I thought Mr. Huo only used this to send messages."

Huo Ran took the phone very carefully, being very careful not to touch his hand, lest the other party take any chance of blushing.

[News] Contentment always brings joy: Friends come from afar! [Image] [image]

The pictures were of a sumptuous dinner, as well as a group photo of Huo Zhendong and several of his uncles standing in a row, arms around each other during the day. Their faces were all red from drinking, and Huo Zhendong, who had half-white hair, laughed so hard that his eyes were wrinkled.

Most pp users are young people, while middle-aged and elderly people usually use another instant messaging software with simpler functions.

Jiang Nansheng continued: "No wonder Lao Huo is always so successful. He always cares about and penetrates into the lives of young people and is constantly exposed to new things. My parents refused to use PP. They didn't try it and just said it was too difficult and they couldn't use it. "

Probably no one can guess the reason why Huo Zhendong used APP. He actually wanted his son to change his mobile phone.

Looking at Jiang Nansheng's admiring expression, Huo Ran thought silently in his heart.

After arriving at the hotel, Huo Ran entered the room and immediately turned on the computer. He had been thinking about the posts about lop-eared rabbits and tits for a long time, and he had no time to chat with Dr. Tao all day. I wonder if his mood was better.

He logged into the app and sent a message to Dr. Tao while waiting for the browser to jump.

[hr: Dr. Tao, I have arrived in northern Shanxi. I have just entered the hotel room. The climate here is so comfortable. ]

The moment the message was sent out, new news about Dr. Tao popped up.

[Tao: I brought snacks I made to my colleagues today. I will take a new step at work tomorrow. It takes courage to step out of the comfort zone. I will also doubt whether it is the right thing to do, but after stepping out, I feel that I have become happier. Yes, I think this is right. ]

[Tao: Thank you for what you said to me yesterday^-^]

After a brief chat, Dr. Tao quickly went to bed, but Huo Ran stared at this paragraph and did not look away for a long time.

Although he didn't know what Dr. Tao looked like or what kind of life he lived, Huo Ran always felt that Dr. Tao was a brave and decisive person from the day he met him.

Sure enough, even Dr. Tao will be confused and distressed, but as long as a little strength comes from the outside world, he can cheer up and try those things that he has been avoiding.

Huo Ran's eyes flashed and he looked at the color screen button machine that had been with him for ten years. It was lying quietly on the table, and the paint color had already faded.

This is the most stubborn label in his life, but it is not only him, but also Huo Zhendong who has been depressed about it for a long time.

Huo Ran took a deep breath, no longer hesitated, and called the hotel concierge.

Twenty minutes later, he inserted the SIM card into his new phone, turned it on, and downloaded the app.

While waiting for the app to download, Huo Ran successfully opened the Animal Island forum on his mobile phone.

On the latest floor, the owner of the Lop-eared Rabbit posted a photo of the new tree house she and Titmouse built. She didn’t post any words, but everyone saw two small dens made of hay in the tree house. There are piles of carrots in it, and thick branches are placed in another small nest.

Huo Ran scrolled down the screen and looked at the yelling replies, and smiled unconsciously.

Doctor Tao was right, and Huo Ran felt that he seemed to be happier.

Opening the app, Huo Ran entered the space dynamic page and liked the content-contented dynamic.

Huo Zhendong actually didn't sleep, and sent a message a few minutes later.

[Contented and happy: Are you at the hotel? ]

[hr: It’s been a while. ]

[hr: I stayed up so late after drinking. ]

[Be content and happy: If you drink too much, go for a walk and enjoy the breeze! ]

[hr: What do you think I am using to chat with you? ]

Huo Ran saw that Huo Zhendong had been typing for a long time, probably deleting, deleting, and revising it for several rounds, and finally sent a lonely expression.

[Contented and happy:/like]

This was very similar to Huo Zhendong's style of not being able to speak, so Huo Ran followed suit.

[hr:/handshake]

[Contented and happy: / clasping fists]

Seeing the silly default expressions filling the screen, Huo Ran suddenly had an idea.

[hr: Dad, I have set an example, should you also keep up with the trend of the times? ]

[Contented and Happy: What’s the Trend? ]

[hr: Nowadays young people like to use emoticons. If you use them too, it will make you look fashionable and friendly. ]

[hr: You can long press on the picture to add it to the emoticon, and then click on the heart symbol to select the emoticon package to send. ]

[hr: Huahua for you.jpg]

[hr: Look, I would be happier if you complimented me with such a cute expression, which looks much more sincere than that thumbs up. ]

[Contented and happy: Oh, all the bells and whistles! ]

Unable to deceive his old-fashioned father, Huo Ran put down his new phone angrily and got up to take a shower.

Don't overdo it, get up early tomorrow and get down to business.

After a while, Huo Ran came out after drying his hair. Feeling tired, he deliberately took his new phone aside to charge before going to bed.

The screen lit up, and Huo Zhendong sent a message five minutes ago.

[Contented and happy: flowers for you.jpg]

Huo Ran couldn't even say a word of rejection because she didn't express her feelings at all, so he couldn't change his assistant because of this.
