Chapter 009: Father and Son, the diffusion of the charm of "Three Kingdoms".
"Squeak!"
With a soft sound, after the main door of the room was pushed open, a thin figure quietly flashed into the room, but unfortunately he paused the next moment.
Because he looked up, he found that on the sofa in the living room, there was sitting the person he was most afraid of meeting now, and what was worse was that the other party had put down the newspaper in his hand and stared at him expressionlessly.
"Dad...... You haven't slept yet. โ
Chen Yuanlong, whose scalp was numb, didn't dare to face his father Chen Xing's scrutinizing eyes, moved his steps and walked to the front and back, and then reluctantly lowered his head and asked.
"Xiaolong, haven't I beaten you in the past few years, and your skin is already itchy?"
Chen Xing, who was very angry, did not show his emotion and roared loudly, but Chen Yuanlong, who was familiar with his temper, knew that this was the omen before the storm, and wanted to refute but did not dare to speak for fear of directly angering his father, so he suddenly lowered his head.
"Say! Why do you fall asleep during school and fight with your classmates at noon? โ
The appearance of his son bowing his head and not speaking made Chen Xing's anger continue to rise, which in his opinion was suspected of "breaking the jar and breaking it".
Although Chen Yuanlong's grades are not good, Chen Xing also knows very well that his son's chances of being admitted to a better university are too slim, but he cares more about his son's learning attitude-
Even the basic study of the steps is careless and perfunctory, and you expect to do something else in the future to be able to make a difference?
"Dad, don't get angry yet, listen to my explanation."
Chen Yuanlong is not a completely ignorant child, he is very respectful of his father who works hard day and night outside, and accompanies him to work hard for the family with dignity, he doesn't want his father to be sad, so he gritted his teeth and decided to confess.
"That's it, I couldn't sleep last night, and it happened that Dad, you forgot to lock the Internet, so I got up and read the novel, but I didn't expect to find a very beautiful novel about the Three Kingdoms......"
"Dad, don't you usually like to read novels very much, and often educate me to say: Do you have to respect these writers and gentlemen who use their brainpower to create a wonderful world for us? That Three Kingdoms novel is so good, I didn't resist the impulse to reward all my pocket money, because I was fascinated by it, and when I came back to my senses, it was already four o'clock in the morning. โ
"As for the fight, it's even more of a misunderstanding, I explained to Xiaopang that he fell asleep in class and was criticized by Teacher Fang, but they didn't believe it, so I asked them to check if I wasn't convinced. But I read the content of the novel twice last night, but I didn't bother to remember the name, thinking that I could see it at any time anyway. โ
"All along, you have locked the permission of my personal terminal to connect to the external network during the day, I can't log in to my account to find it, and then I didn't find them, so I naturally made fun of me even more, so I was a little angry and played with them, it was just a normal joke between friends, I didn't expect to be seen by Teacher Fang again......"
"Really?"
Seeing his son's anxious and flushed face, Chen Xing actually believed it in his heart, and most of his anger was gone.
Compared to what he originally thought was indulgent and depraved, this result now relieved him - children have poor self-control, and it is perfectly acceptable to have a little situation once in a while, isn't it?
"That's it! Seeing that you are a first-time offender, I will give you a chance. In the future, you should pay attention to rest on time, and you can only read novels and do other things at the time I have set, you know? โ
Seeing Chen Yuanlong nodding his head busily, Chen Xing decided to expose these unhappy things like this, and at this time Chen Xing was also curious about the novel that was praised in his son's mouth, "Xiaolong, you go find that book and show it to me, you go to eat by yourself first, your mother is working overtime today, she doesn't know about this yet, don't say it to make her angry, understand?" โ
"Order! I knew that you were the greatest, my dear father. โ
Chen Yuanlong saw that this turmoil had finally survived without danger, and immediately jumped up happily, saluted nondescriptly, and ran away before Chen Xing smiled and scolded and slapped the raised slap.

Due to his work, Chen Xing has had relatively little communication with his son Chen Yuanlong since he was a child, and when he realized that there was some estrangement between father and son, he couldn't find a good way to eliminate it.
After the tedious and tiring work, he will read novels at other times except for watching TV with his wife, because he likes this kind of work that suits his taste in many novels, and in the process of calming down and reading, substituting for the protagonist will allow him to enter another vast space and forget the troubles of reality for a while.
And the eleven-year-old son accidentally came into contact with the famous work "Ascending the Peak" by Master Liu Ziming that he bought and treasured, and then he also liked to read novels on the Internet, which also allowed Chen Xing to find an effective bridge of communication between father and son.
In the past six years, under the common hobby, the relationship between father and son is more like friends when facing the works they like, they can have similar opinions and have fun together, or they can insist on their own opinions and fight based on reason.
The harmonious relationship between father and son also made Chen Xing's understanding of his son gradually become very profound, unlike his own frequent tips and support, Chen Yuanlong is completely a "slam the door to death" style, in his own words,
"It's not that I don't want to reward, firstly, the pocket money you give is too little, and secondly, I haven't encountered any works that I think are worth rewarding and supporting."
Then, Chen Xing is obviously very interested in this novel that suddenly appeared to make his son "make an exception".
For Chen Xing, who often deals with citizens, among civilians, although his credit points cannot be compared with those "rich" who have hundreds of millions of dollars at every turn, the number below 10,000 is really not in his eyes, so Chen Xing, who is more active on the Internet, is also a well-known "local tyrant" fan in the online novel industry.
Like his son, Chen Xing, who is a longer scholar, has been in a "book shortage" for several months, so after his son's affairs were basically understood, he didn't have much of the heart to teach his son a long lesson, and soon began to use his son's account to read Yang Lin's "Legend of the God of War" with curiosity.
"The beginning is very good, a large number of heroes appear, and it immediately renders a sense of the opening of the era of great chaos, if the whole text is of this level, it is definitely a masterpiece above the average level."
"Well, how does the second chapter start with a bit straightforward? Could it be that the author's basic writing skills are insufficient, and the beginning is extraordinary? โ
"It seems that my own mentality is not put in place, it seems that it is easy to reread a novel and substitute it into the novel, this little Zhuge Liang's portrayal is very wonderful, most people can find in him the shadow of being naughty and carefree when he was a child."
"Is a quiet life a way to reflect the cruelty of war? The change of the protagonist is not abrupt in the slightest, and people are very much looking forward to watching this smart guy who has been different since he was a child shine. โ
"Finally out of the mountain, under all the foreshadowing in front, the expected protagonist really did not disappoint. An inexperienced and unknown man can easily let Cao Cao's battle-hardened warrior Xiahou Dunwolf bรจi escape, which makes me somewhat believe that this Zhuge Liang is the first person of wisdom in ancient times. โ
"After reading the updated content, why did Mr. Mu Yi obviously choose the classification of alternate historical works, indicating that the history in this novel may not be consistent with the historical facts, but I still feel that this is more like a real historical biography in the plot and the compact occurrence of major events at various exact times?"
Two hours have passed, Chen Yuanlong has already eaten dinner, and by the way, he sent his mother, who came back from overtime, to rest first.
"Hehe, Dad, you usually boast of being rich in reading, and you never believe that there are novels that fascinate you except for the works of master-level masters? Now you can always understand my excitement last night, and you won't come to 'settle accounts after autumn' as the ancients said, right? โ
With nothing to do, he saw his father's completely fascinated appearance, and suddenly thought a little proudly.
"Not bad! Not bad! It's a pity that I have to wait for the update ...... painfully."
"No, it's better to be alone than to be happy, and it's certainly better to stay in the pit together than to be in the pit alone! Looks like I'm going to have to recommend this good book to my old friends and let them stay with me, hehe. โ
Chen Xing, who was talking to himself to the point of pride, suddenly found Chen Yuanlong who was snickering on the side, and suddenly turned straight face, and pretended to scold: "What are you laughing at, don't you go to bed early after eating!" โ
"Dad, you don't look at the time, it's almost twelve o'clock, I've already finished eating!"
After not feeling a little anger from his father's words, Chen Yuanlong, who let go of his worries, suddenly regained his usual hippie smile and replied with a pout.
"Then why don't you hurry up and go to sleep, and you want to continue to sleep off in class tomorrow?"
Chen Xing, who couldn't hold his face a little, used the old method of "a gentleman doesn't move his mouth", and directly raised his right hand, this trick still worked so well, so that Chen Yuanlong immediately disappeared in a puff of smoke.
Chen Yuanlong was "threatened" and fell asleep obediently, but Chen Xing still recalled the plot in "The Legend of the God of War" in his mind, guessing how the protagonist Zhuge Liang would respond to Cao Cao, who had become a force that had swept the world, to conquer the world after facing the pacification of the north......
The more he thought about it, the more energetic Chen Xing simply went to his reading account, first rewarded a league leader, and left a comment post in the book review area to encourage the author to cheer. He clicked into a community group on his computer.
"Hey, I recommend a good book to everyone, the link is here...... I bet with 3,000 credits, and if I don't get into the pit after reading it, I lose. โ
With the sending of Chen Xing's text and the gamble he really started in the group, the community group of more than 100 people suddenly exploded, and the diving guys also bubbled.
"A thousand words, only one word - 'I don't believe it'!"
"Yes, dear 3,000 points are my drops, no one should rob them."
"But I believe in Lao Chen's character, this book shortage is really not a human life, so let's go and see it first."
โโฆโฆโ
Chen Xing is the administrator of this book friend group, and the community group of this "Old Bird Home" is also enriched by him and a few like-minded friends in the past ten years, intermittently pulling friends who also love to read novels in reality, and they know each other well.
At this time, seeing Chen Xing throwing down the "big words" so confidently, he instantly pounced on him like a shark smelling blood, and made some noise, and everyone who had time ran to read this novel, and the group quickly quieted down again.
Half an hour later, the people who came back one after another began to speak.
"Lao Chen, after reading this book, although it's okay, it feels weird, it's not as good as you say? Looks like I'm going to laugh at your 3,000 points. โ
A book friend named "White with Boundary" was the first to speak out.
"Cut, although the name has been changed, but you kid has been reading for six or seven years, at most he has evolved from a white to a middle white, and the level of appreciation is not enough, if you want to say this after watching it twice, then I will admit it."
Chen Xing pursed his lips and typed in response.
In fact, even if he didn't respond, he only had to wait for a while, and that guy didn't dare to be proud, because the arrival of a large wave of speeches made Chen Xing reply in a hurry, and then simply pretended to be offline-
"Yes, Lao Chen recommended a book of grain and grass."
"I have a question after reading it, how do things in this look so real, there are too many controversies in this period of the Three Kingdoms, I really don't know who said it is true."
"I feel the same way, but we are too far away from that time to ever know what the real history is like. Since I can't confirm it, then I'll just assume that what is written in this "Legend of the God of War" is the truth, so that the protagonist can feel a sense of accomplishment after defeating those opponents who are too strong to speak. โ
"You still have the heart to think about this, I only have one thought now, this book is less than 100,000 words, and when it is updated, it will make people suffer!"
"That's it, Lao Chen, don't pretend to be dead, I promise not to kill you when you come out, it's too unkind, this guy must be unwilling to go into the pit alone, so come and pull us to accompany him, it's just bad!"
"+1, Lao Chen comes out."
"+2, Lao Chen, come out."

Looking at the many speeches of the crowd, Chen Xing smiled "hehe", closed the communication software, and went to rest in a comfortable mood.
