MTL - Don’t Covet the Beautiful System!!-Chapter 61

When leaving the bakery, Pei Qingyuan came out with a large bag of freshly baked pastries, and Pei Huaishan was also stuffed with a bag of the same size. He Shiwen refused to accept the money no matter what.

Smelling the seductive aroma wafting from the paper bag, Pei Huaishan thanked He Shiwen seriously.

He Shiwen smiled and waved his hands honestly: "It's okay, it's okay, don't be so polite, come and sit when you have time, see you next time!"

He stood at the door of the shop, watched the three of them leave, and waved reluctantly.

When he opened the door and returned to the store, he could see the new members on the photo wall at a glance.

One is Ji Tong with scissorhands and Pei Qingyuan with a gentle expression.

In another photo, Pei Qingyuan is surrounded by two pairs of scissors, and Ji Tong and him standing on both sides are smiling so hard that their teeth can't see their eyes.

This was taken by Pei Huaishan for them.

Maybe it's because of the person taking pictures outside the picture, or maybe it's influenced by the two idiots next to him, Pei Qingyuan in this photo is smiling rarely.

He Shiwen stared at it for a while, and suddenly remembered the back view of him leaving in a hurry on a bicycle that late at night a long time ago.

Fortunately, that day he called out to stop the boy who was always wandering outside the door, he thought.

The wind chime hanging at the door of the store rang again. When a customer came in, He Shiwen turned around with a smile.

By the side of the car beside the road, Pei Huaishan handed the bag full of bread to the driver who came up, looked at the shops on this street, and said with emotion: "You met a good person, and a good person will have good luck."

Pei Qingyuan heard the meaning of his words, and silently nodded.

"Now my legs and feet are better, I moved back to live on the mountain, it's quieter, the company's business is still left to the young people." Pei Huaishan smiled, "Remember to come to the mountain to play with grandpa when you are on vacation. If Tongtong's parents can rest assured, Also bring Tongtong, you have been here a few times when you were young, do you still have any impressions? It is very beautiful."

"Remember some." Pei Qingyuan said, "There are many fruit trees."

"Yes, summer is very cool. It's the best time after your college entrance examination and summer vacation." Pei Huaishan said in detail, "At that time, many trees will bear fruit, there are peaches, lychees, red bayberries... and mountain spring water. You are young. Do people like to eat hot pot? I heard from the group of children on the mountain that the hot pot boiled in mountain spring water is delicious.”

In the second half of grandpa's words, Pei Qingyuan saw Ji Tong's eyes getting brighter and brighter, and swallowed suggestively, he laughed and said: "Grandpa, when the summer vacation is over, I will bring friends to play of."

At that time, Ji Tong will have a new look.

"Okay, okay, bring friends!" Pei Huaishan was very happy, "You can bring as many as you want, there are plenty of rooms!"

Ji Tong has already started fantasizing about mountain spring hot pot: "Thank you grandpa, grandpa is so kind."

"Hey!" Pei Huaishan joyfully responded to his grandfather's voice over and over again.

He raised his hand and rubbed Ji Tong's hair. He wanted to touch his grandson's head like he did when he was a child, but Pei Qingyuan was already taller than him, so he just patted Pei Qingyuan's shoulder lightly.

"You've grown up, and you're happier than before." Pei Huaishan finally said, "I'm very happy."

Pei Qingyuan wanted to say something, but couldn't find a suitable sentence, so he responded softly, and rubbed Ji Tong's hair like Pei Huaishan did.

The distant sunset gently sinks.

After bidding farewell to Pei Huaishan, Pei Qingyuan led Ji Tong on the way home.

"Ruanrou, is my hair messed up?"

"…No."

"Really? Let me see."

Immediately afterwards, Pei Qingyuan saw Ji Tong open the schoolbag on his back in astonishment, and found a small mirror.

"Why is there a mirror?"

"Because this is a treasure bag connected to the mysterious space, I can also transform Huahua out of here. Do you want to see Huahua now that no one is passing by?"

"…No."

"By the way, you said just now that you asked my 'father' to hold a parent-teacher meeting, will you go back on it?"

Looking at Ji Tong who was arranging his hair with a small mirror, Pei Qingyuan thought for a while and promised, "No."

"Great!" Ji Tong cheered immediately, "Thank you host!"

"How are you going to attend?"

Ji Tong shook his head: "This is a secret, and you will know it when the time comes."

"Um."

"Also, Ruan Ruan, can I take a leave of absence on the day of the parent meeting? I will come back on time in the evening to hold the parent meeting."

"Ask for leave?"

"I have a very important thing to do, so I have to leave for a while. I will leave some data on the watch to monitor the movement around the host. In case the host encounters any emergency that I haven't noticed, you can contact me at any time , I'll come right over."

This very important thing is to meet Fang Hao, a naive primary school student who is so bored that he is rolling dice and swiping the screen in the chat group.

Amidst the countless voices of "Brother Ji Tong" from unwillingness to numbness, Ji Tong couldn't help feeling a little bit of sympathy for the poor elementary school student, and planned to invite him over in the next few days.

Cross-world data exchange is troublesome, there are many procedures to go through, and Fang Hao is the first friend to visit him after all, Ji Tong will definitely show his friendship as a landlord and lead him around to get familiar with the environment here.

It's quite exciting when I think about it, it feels like meeting netizens.

This is a netizen across the world.

After Ji Tong finished speaking, he looked at the host beside him expectantly.

Apart from the regular system meeting, this is the first time Ji Tong asks him for leave.

Pei Qingyuan was startled, looked into his bright eyes, and agreed: "Okay."

Although I don't know what Ji Tong is going to do, but it's just a day off, and it will pass soon, Pei Qingyuan thought so.

But when that day really came, the days that seemed to be the same as usual were no longer normal.

Ji Tong has disappeared since the morning, there are no children who love to sing and wander around the house, only he and Hua Hua have a quiet breakfast.

When going out, Watch Xiaomei will still broadcast the route and estimated time to him. This is the preset program left by Ji Tong, but this slightly mechanical voice will no longer make nonsensical comments on the shape of the clouds in the sky.

Pei Qingyuan rode silently all the way to the school, and when he entered the classroom, a line of words appeared on the dial in time.

[A new day has begun, host come on ヾ(@^▽^@)ノ]

Familiar colored bubbles and small flowers appear next to the text, which is Ji Tong's usual style.

Pei Qingyuan subconsciously wanted to have a conversation with him, but when he was about to speak, he stopped in time.

Still the default program.

He watched the line of words gradually fade away, and a sense of loss welled up in his heart for no reason.

It was the morning reading time, and the classroom was filled with noisy reading sounds, and the sound of morning reading from the classroom next door also floated in through the window, and it was very lively everywhere.

But Pei Qingyuan only felt extraordinarily quiet.

There are no small robot animations that often change patterns, and there is no clear voice that always rings in my heart.

Outside the window is the bright and good weather, warmly shining on this suddenly ordinary world.

He was distracted for a long time, and the book in his hand remained on the page he read yesterday.

Where is Ji Tong now?

What is the most important thing?

Pei Qingyuan couldn't help but think of these two questions.

Far away from him, in a deserted corner of the city, a tall figure appeared out of thin air.

The handsome man in black looked around, shaking his whole body.

Ji Tong, who sat on the rock and waited for a long time, waved to him enthusiastically: "Brother Xiaohao."

Fang Hao didn't refute Brother Xiao Hao, but his face looked weird.

Ji Tong dissatisfied: "Why do you have such a stinky expression? You have called me brother so many times."

"It's not because of this." Fang Hao seemed a little embarrassed to say, "... I was a little dizzy when I was teleported."

He was still dizzy after a while, and he couldn't care less about maintaining his image, so he simply sat down on the rock next to Ji Tong.

Ji Tong looked at the handsome but sluggish primary school student beside him in surprise, and asked, "Did you get motion sickness before?"

"Yes." Fang Hao nodded honestly, "I've been dizzy since I was a child."

Ji Tong sighed: "It's a good thing you went to the fantasy world, it feels good to be able to fly around, doesn't it?"

"Well, I like it very much." Fang Hao nodded again, "I will take you to play next time."

Ji Tong imagined the car sickness of a tiger-headed elementary school student, and suddenly felt that the image of this handsome and cold guy in front of him became cute.

He dug out a box of motion sickness pills and a bottle of water from his all-purpose schoolbag, and handed them to Fang Hao.

"Come and experience the power of modern science again."

Food that can work on the human body cannot be changed. This is one of the things he prepared in advance, but he didn't expect it to be used.

After all, it was the first time for Ji Tong to welcome friends who came to play with him, so it was inevitable to be a little over-excited.

Only a little bit.

Of course, this part does not need to tell primary school students.

Fang Hao looked up at him in surprise, and whispered, "Thank you."

Ji Tong took the opportunity to squeeze the top of the handsome guy's head: "You're welcome, welcome to my world."

"Hey, don't mess with my hair."

"No mess, more handsome."

"Really?"

"Really, it's a pity I don't have a mirror, or I'll show you."

"Then I'll turn into a mirror—"

"Okay, okay." Ji Tong quickly pulled his hair back and changed the subject, "Are you feeling better? Where do you want to go?"

Two hours later, Ji Tong and Fang Hao reluctantly walked out of the video game city. The latter was carrying a large bag of dolls. There was an ice cream shop next to the video game city. The two looked at each other and turned their directions tacitly. walked over.

"It would be great if you grew up a little more." Fang Hao sighed while holding the cone, "It feels like a crime to play other game consoles with you who can only shoot basketballs and catch dolls."

"Yes, I really want to grow up." Ji Tong also sighed, "But you are a primary school student, and you can't play without me."

"…oh."

One big and one small with the same movements and expressions attracted the attention of countless passers-by.

"By the way, is your host in class?" Fang Hao asked curiously, "Will I see him after school?"

This time, Fang Hao's external identity is Ji Tong's bodyguard. Taking Ji Tong as his fictional family background, this identity is quite reasonable.

Of course, when explaining to Pei Qingyuan, Ji Tong will tell him that this is his system colleague who came to visit from other worlds. Except for Fang Hao and his human identity, other parts can truthfully tell the host.

Hearing that he mentioned the host, Ji Tong checked the real-time video transmitted by the data by the way, and found nothing abnormal, and Pei Qingyuan never contacted him.

"Yes, I'll introduce you to each other then." Ji Tong closed the monitoring window with confidence, "Tonight, the host's school will hold a parent-teacher meeting."

"I hate the parent meeting the most." Fang Hao frowned and asked casually, "Who will hold it for him?"

"us."

"..." Fang Hao's cone almost fell to the ground, "What? Who?"

Ji Tong smiled slightly: "Come here and discuss something with you."

After a while, Fang Hao, who had bent over to listen, sat up straight again, with a delicate expression on his face.

"Then I'm just a puppet in human form?" Fang Hao thought for a while, a little unhappy, "And I used someone else's face."

"No, no, how can you say it's a puppet." Ji Tong shook his head again and again, and asked him solemnly, "Is the season banquet handsome?"

"…handsome."

"Then do you know Gundam?"

"Of course I know, what does this have to do with Gundam?"

"There is a cockpit inside the Gundam, and there is a pilot inside, right?"

"right."

"Isn't this the combination of the two of us? I'm in charge of controlling, and you're in charge of being handsome. Although I'm talking and directing, others don't know. What they see is you, the handsome war machine Gao·Ji Ban Xing· Da."

Seeing the sudden brilliance in Fang Hao's eyes, Ji Tong knew that he must be shamefully moved.

No elementary school student can refuse to be a cool and handsome Gundam.

After contemplating for a while, Fang Hao coughed and said casually, "Then I will reluctantly promise you."

Ji Tong stretched out his hand contentedly: "Happy cooperation."

Fang Hao also shook hands with him contentedly: "Remember to be handsome."

In the anticipation of different people with different moods, night gradually falls.

Tonight's evening self-study in the third year of high school is cancelled, and the classroom will be reserved for parents to have a meeting. Students can go home or go back to the dormitory after school, or they can stay in the school and wander around, and go back together after the parents' meeting.

Among the group of anxious or worried students, Pei Qingyuan's slightly gloomy quietness seemed normal.

He will go to the basketball team to practice at night, so he will not be affected by the cancellation of evening self-study.

Walking on the way to the gymnasium as usual, Pei Qingyuan just felt that today was a very long day.

In fact, he wanted to contact Ji Tong several times in the middle, but before he spoke, he gave up again.

He couldn't find a suitable reason.

Nothing happened that required the system to help.

So why did he want to find Ji Tong?

Pei Qingyuan found this mood very strange.

It cannot be explained by clear and orderly logic.

Stars were twinkling in the night sky. Under the dim light of street lights, he pushed open the door of the gymnasium and walked in silently.

At the same time, outside the extremely lively school gate, a pure black luxury car slowly stopped.

There were many cars parked near the school gate. Many parents drove over today, but this luxury car was still quite eye-catching.

A parent of a car fan said with emotion: "I didn't see this car at the parent meeting last semester. Which boss got rich?"

And when the car door was opened, the small-scale discussion suddenly fell silent.

The man with a handsome face stepped out of the car with an indescribably captivating aura. The well-tailored black suit and the shirt of the same color opened the neckline slightly, which faded away from the formality and solemnity, showing a bit of wantonness. His suit was similar to the night In the pure black, only the delicate light gold cufflinks on the cuffs are shiny.
