Chapter 38: Be Proud of Me
"Open the first-order friendship treasure chest to get a piece of soap, which can be extracted from the real world and stored in the lottery warehouse."
In the end, Zhou Yi, who failed to free his hands, decided to draw a prize to comfort his injured heart.
And the lottery results made him hurt even more, and the legendary favorability chest where everything is possible, let him pick up soap at the first shot.
It was the [Lottery Warehouse] that made his eyes shine, which was equivalent to the function of a space ring, and this kind of daily necessities were stored in the warehouse, and it might be useful in the future.
So he didn't take out the bar of soap and went straight to the second draw.
"Open the second-order friendship treasure chest and get a box of 200 paper towels, which can be extracted to the real world and has been stored in the lottery warehouse."
Have you ever seen a cartoon like this, a crow flew in the sky, accompanied by dubbing: Ga ~ ~ Ga ......
Now Zhou Yi has experienced such a famous scene, and his forehead is full of black lines.
He was thrilled when he saw the 200 draw, thinking that it was a chance to draw 200 times, and the result was a box of toilet paper.
"Give me some strength, what about good people who say that good people have good rewards?"
Zhou Yi learned from the pain and decisively changed into a pair of red underwear.
As it turns out, the red pants do have a hidden bonus.
"Open the third-order favorability treasure chest and get 50,000 merit points."
Fifty thousand points is still good, and Zhou Yi's injured heart has been comforted.
He felt that the Favorability Chest was too random, and he never knew what he would open next time.
The next day, Zhou Yi went to class as usual and found that his classmates had a completely different attitude towards him.
If in the past everyone was thinking about how to squeeze him, now everyone is thinking about how to please him.
Even though Zhou Yi rejected Sun Xiaoxin and Qian Mengru's kindness in public yesterday, there are still many people who come forward to succeed him.
The logic of this is easy to understand, some people gamble on everything in order to listen to a public class of the famous teacher Yun Xuanran, who does not hesitate to turn against their roommates and break up with their lovers. In the same way, it can be proved that Zhou Yi has helped people develop talent and specialization three times in a row, and the current success rate is 100%, in a sense, his methods are no less than that of famous teachers, you can imagine how fanatical the students are in their hearts.
However, Zhou Yi simply ignored these flatterers who saw the wind and steered the rudder, and immersed himself in the atmosphere that learning made me happy.
He went directly to the graduate school and learned a lot of new knowledge in the project team that was specialized in research. It just so happened that the leader of the project team was Professor Wen, and the two didn't know each other, so they had something in common.
Yesterday, Zhou Yi ridiculed the tutor in the big classroom, and was not kicked out on the spot, relying on Professor Wen to stand up and say a few fair words.
That Professor Wen was a reasonable person, able to accept criticism, listen to different opinions, and won Zhou Yi's respect.
Before you know it, it's weekend again.
On Friday, September 30th, the long-awaited National Day holiday finally arrived.
The National Day of the New World Donghua Empire is also on October 1st, and there is a Golden Week holiday.
The main reason why Zhou Yi and Ling Cong can become Fa Xiao is that they live in the same community, and on Friday afternoon, the two packed their bags and went home together. Halfway down the road, Ling Cong looked like he wanted to speak and stopped, and finally spoke after being entangled for a long time: "Old Zhou, don't go on a cold war with your father." ”
"What Cold War?" Zhou Yi didn't understand the situation, his own personality in the new world collapsed, and he always did something he didn't expect.
"Don't pretend to have amnesia, just because you used to chase your sister everywhere and make your dad very sad. He thinks that your mother left early and failed to give you a sound family, so you lack maternal love, and when you see your sister, you run up to chase a plate. ”
Ling Cong opened the conversation: "Listen to my advice, and talk to your father when you go back." In fact, your father is very worried about you, every time he talks to you less than ten words, he will quarrel, afraid that he will stimulate you if he says something serious, so he secretly called me several times and asked me to persuade you, and I was about to cry when I heard his voice on the phone. ”
Zhou Yi was silent, no wonder he felt that his father in the new world was a little weird, and his eyes were also weird when he looked at him, and he looked like he wanted to speak many times.
Ling Cong said again: "To be honest, your father is not easy, the Internet café business is not good these years, he pays you a million school construction fees every semester, and the pressure is very high. Coupled with the fact that you do this kind of thing, you put yourself in his shoes and think about how much pressure he has to endure every day. ”
"What a million school fees?" Zhou Yi was dumbfounded, in the previous world, the tuition fees of the three colleges were indeed several times more expensive, and it was less than 100,000 yuan a year.
"You kid won't forget such an important thing, will you?"
Ling Cong has always been straightforward: "Back then, my college entrance examination score was 1 point off, and it all depended on my good performance in the interview and I paid 200,000 yuan in construction fees every semester. You kid is a scumbag better than me, 8 points worse, if it weren't for your dad begging people everywhere to make some connections, you wouldn't have been able to enter the school gate of Tokyo University. Even if you open the back door and send you in, you have to pay one million construction fees every semester, two million a year, and your father sold all the Internet cafes last year. ”
Zhou Yi's heart twitched, and he said in disbelief: "Isn't our Internet café still open?" ”
Ling Cong was also incredulous: "Your kid's amnesia is a bit serious, the Internet café is open, but the real estate certificate is not your family's." At the end of the year, the new owner will have to take over the house, and there will be three months, and your Internet café will not be able to open at that time. ”
Zhou Yi's heart twitched even more, he was in no mood to chat, and strode back home.
"Coming back?"
His father, Zhou Daniu, is still wearing flip-flops, looking indulgent and uninhibited and loving freedom.
"Hmm."
Zhou Yi nodded, there were a thousand words in his heart, and he didn't know where to start.
"I just got some food from the kitchen, it's still hot, let's go eat."
Zhou Daniu also had a thousand words in his heart, but in the end he did not get to the point.
The relationship between father and son has always been like this, and neither of them is good at expressing feelings.
In the previous world, don't look at Zhou Yi's family to open an Internet café, Zhou Daniu is very opposed to his son playing games online, and the reason is very sufficient: I think he became an e-sports player after graduating from junior high school, and he suffered the loss of no culture, and the biggest regret in his life is that he never went to college, and I hope that his son can study hard every day and become the first college student in the old Zhou family.
Originally, Zhou Yi wanted to play professionally after graduating from high school, but his father strongly opposed him. The father and son almost turned their faces, and after three fierce negotiations, an agreement was finally reached, Zhou Yi could play games after studying, and his father helped him introduce some agency business to make extra money during the winter and summer vacations.
And in this new world, Zhou Yi's personality collapsed, and he never made his father proud of him since he was a child.
Today, Zhou Yi decided to make his father happy and said: "Dad, I am now a bachelor's and master's student, and the tuition and miscellaneous fees for my junior and senior years will be free in the future, and there will be a million scholarships every year." ”
Zhou Daniu put down his chopsticks, reached out and touched his son's forehead, his expression was very puzzled: "I don't have a fever, how can I talk nonsense?" If your kid can be admitted to the top 500 in the grade, Dad is very satisfied, and I didn't expect to study for a bachelor's and master's degree at all. ”
Zhou Yi took out his student ID: "Dad, can you trust me a little?" You see, this is my new student ID card with my identity as a graduate student. ”
Father Zhou looked at the student ID card and his expression was very calm: "Are you going to find Lao Li who has a fake card again?" Don't fix these useless things, just study hard. ”
At this moment, Zhou Yi had a painful understanding.
Assuming that the full credit value is 100, he used to have a credit rating of 60 in his father's mind, but in the new world, his credit in front of his father does not exceed 30.
He simply changed the subject: "Dad, since I was a child, have I ever made you proud?" ”
Zhou Daniu wanted to speak and stopped, thought for a long time, and finally fell silent.
At times like this, silence is the best answer.
Zhou Yi felt the critical damage caused by a silent skill in the game, and talked to his father for the first time about a topic that he had always wanted to say and had always felt embarrassed about: "Dad, in fact, there is a sentence that I have been holding in my heart for many years, what should I do to make you proud?" ”
"You kid is not normal today, you actually talk about this."
Zhou Daniu glanced at his son suspiciously, and finally replied: "Back then, I scored 980 points in the qualifying match of the God of War Pavilion, and I was only one game away from being able to reach the diamond rank. It's a pity that I didn't get a diamond. If you can upgrade to a three-star fighter after graduation, you will play a ranked match, and if you can play the three-star diamond level one day, your dad will wake up laughing when he falls asleep. ”
"That's it?"
Zhou Yi didn't expect his father's wish to be so simple, and said enthusiastically on the spot: "Dad, you don't have to wait for college graduation, I'll do this during the National Day holiday." Please don't look at me like that, I'm serious, you wait to be proud of me! ”
