Quick Transmigration: After Fake Death, All the Protagonists I Flirted With Went Crazy
Chapter 68 Different Paths to Immortality 21
Qing Yan was also taken aback when he heard this, not expecting Gu Yao, a young man who had just entered the workforce, to be so frank.
Does he realize the weight of his words?
Being the young master of a clan is no easy task.
Is he really ready?
Looking down at the composed and confident young man, Qingyan suddenly felt a strange sense of trust welling up inside him.
Maybe he really can?
Despite the scrutinizing gazes around him, some mocking, some disdainful, and some astonished, Gu Yao remained composed, showing no trace of the timidity he had displayed earlier.
He looks like a proper young master of a clan.
Those open and clear eyes seemed to hold the stars within them.
Scorching and intense.
Qing Yan's heart skipped a beat at the sight of those bright, shining eyes, but he remained calm on the surface. He smiled and said in a somewhat casual tone, "So it was Su Yuanliang. I was blind."
Gu Yao remained neither humble nor arrogant, his back ramrod straight, and his gaze toward Qing Yan carried a faint pride and... relief.
The young man is proud of his identity as Young Master Su, but what is the meaning of "letting go"?
Qingyan didn't know where this sense of relief came from; he only knew that his heart was beating for this person who should have been a stranger.
The two looked at each other, both speechless.
The intense passion that once resided in those brown eyes was no longer visible.
Gu Yao felt a pang of sadness and was the first to look away.
In the end, he was the first to be defeated.
The master of ceremonies beside him was also very perceptive. He keenly sensed that the atmosphere between the two was not quite right, so he suddenly raised his head, straightened his back, and announced in a loud voice, "The North Sea presents its gifts!"
Qing Yan continued to stare at Gu Yao, as if trying to see through the person in front of him. Hearing this, he glanced at the official in charge of ceremonies with displeasure, but did not say anything more.
Even if he had many questions in his mind, this was really not the right time to probe or chat casually.
Gu Yao suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, his whole body relaxed, and even his tense back felt a little lighter.
He bowed and quickly returned to his seat.
She didn't give Qing Yan another glance.
He dared not, nor was he willing.
Xunmo was somewhat surprised, glancing at Gu Yao and then at Qing Yan, his eyes sparkling with gossip.
He had no idea that his cousin and the young master, whom Su protected like the apple of his eye, had a secret affair.
Moreover, it seems that what happened between the two was quite complicated.
But now it's Beihai's turn to present their gift, and he's Beihai's representative this time, so he can't just sneak over and gossip with that little Yuanliang.
What a pity!
Xunmo sighed softly and resignedly left his seat to present his gift.
After all, it was my cousin's celebration banquet, so I couldn't ruin it; I had to give him some face.
Otherwise, his father would beat him to death when he got back.
Last time I went on a pilgrimage with my cousin, I almost got whipped to death by my father when I got back.
As Xunmo brushed past Gu Yao, he also took a special look at Su Yuanliang, who had connections with his cousin.
When he met Gu Yao's calm, emerald eyes, his mind was momentarily disturbed, but he quickly regained his composure.
Passing by in a hurry, Xunmo could only see Gu Yao's back.
Looking at that figure from behind, no matter how many questions he had, he could only wait until the banquet ended.
Withdrawing his gaze, Xunmo composed himself and walked towards the center.
"A gift from Beihai..."
Gu Yao felt he could no longer hear the voices behind him; the silent confrontation with Qing Yan had exhausted all his emotions.
He feels really tired right now.
Outsiders couldn't see the undercurrents between Gu Yao and Qing Yan, but the Fox King and Fox Queen, as their parents, could see it at a glance.
They also had some questions about when their child had become involved with Qing Yan.
I've never heard my own child mention it.
They were puzzled, but seeing Gu Yao's downcast expression, they could only swallow their questions.
My son needs to be alone.
The Fox King and Fox Queen exchanged a glance and reached a consensus.
Gu Yao stood alone with his head down, looking emo. Seeing that he was in low spirits, no one dared to talk to him.
On the surface, he looks like a melancholy little prince.
In reality, Gu Yao was secretly a crazy narcissist.
"66, did you think my acting was good? Did I convey the restrained love, the relief of understanding, and the awkwardness of meeting an old flame?"
66 was worried that Gu Yao might be too deeply affected by the original owner's emotions, causing him to lose himself, when Gu Yao suddenly blurted out this sentence.
Unprepared!
It's such a waste of his feelings.
However, seeing Gu Yao's split yet lucid state, 66 felt relieved.
Gu Yao was feeling frustrated, but still hadn't received a reply from 66, and was filled with doubt.
Has his acting not improved?
He did a special study on it, surely it's not that serious?
Judging from how stunned Qingyan was by his words, he must be pretty good... right?
"66, are you there?"
When 66, who was lost in thought, was brought back to his senses, he saw that Gu Yao had called him again, and he was slightly speechless.
Xiao Jiu is absolutely right.
His host is somewhat narcissistic.
And he will persist until someone praises him, otherwise he will keep at it.
Remembering Xiao Jiu's words, 66 transformed into an emotionless praise machine, saying, "Host's acting skills are unparalleled throughout history. The entertainment industry owes Host an Oscar; you are simply perfect."
The voice was flat and completely perfunctory.
There's absolutely no comparison between this and 0529's "sincere" and overly flattering praise.
Having grown accustomed to 0529's passionate praise, Gu Yao felt slightly disgusted upon hearing such emotionless compliments.
Little Jiu is still the cutest.
Another day of missing my stupid system.
Although 66 is indeed more capable than Xiao Jiu, if he had been given the choice from the beginning, as someone whose goal is to complete the mission, he would definitely prefer a more capable partner.
For example, someone as smart and sensible as 66 can understand what you mean with just a glance.
But now, he feels that being cute is more important.
After all, it's really fun to mess with your own stupid system.
They get easily agitated, and are quite timid; they even get shy if you pat their head a couple of times.
Last time, even the code got messed up.
Thinking of 0529, Gu Yao's expression softened completely.
When Xiao Jiu comes back, let him choose a form from the system shop.
He seems to have been craving 66's human form for a long time.
Thinking it over, Gu Yao glanced at the system beside him in his mind and nodded.
He was a handsome young man.
It's worthy of its own stupid system.
It's also good for their own stupid system.
If the system could grow flesh, Xiao Jiu would probably have been fed into a pig by 66 by now.
These are the kind that are already ready for market.
Ever since I met 66, that heartless little thing has been showing favoritism to her grandma.
He even came back at a plot point last time because of 66, don't think he didn't know.
However, he is a humane host and will not interfere in the relationship.
After all, who wants to be a wicked mother-in-law?
At this moment, Gu Yao had already put himself in the shoes of 0529's family, and the way he stared at 66 was like a mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law.
His gaze was intense and eager.
It also carries the scrutiny of an older woman picking vegetables at a market.
Even 66's expressionless face had a slight crack, and Gu Yao's gaze always felt eerie.
Alarm bells rang in his mind, but his face remained expressionless; he simply took two steps back silently.
Stay safe and sound.
This is not cowardice.
Just follow your heart.
Gu Yao raised an eyebrow at 66's actions, but did not point it out.
Instead, he turned his attention back to the banquet.
He continues to play the role of the "melancholy little prince".
It was as if the scrutiny and oppression of 66 just now were unintentional.
The gaze that had been lingering on her withdrew, and 66 breathed a huge sigh of relief.
If Gu Yao continued to look at him, he felt like he was being seen through.
Being stared at like that is no different from being stripped naked and running around naked.
Although the system is just a string of data, as advanced intelligence, they have already developed human emotions and thoughts, and understand the most basic principles of propriety, righteousness, integrity, and shame.
Moreover, the products from the system's store are all made to a 1:1 scale with human bodies.
Being stared at like that by Gu Yao, he always felt like he was about to be "swallowed alive".
Seeing that Gu Yao had turned his gaze back to the arena, 66 quickly regained his composure and stood guard beside Gu Yao in the best possible manner.
A qualified system must always be aware of the host's needs.
Except for Xiao Jiu.
Even if Xiao Jiu can't do it, he is still an excellent system.
66 is just that hypocritical, and I won't accept any rebuttal.
