The King’s Game-Chapter 103
Chapter 103
When he asked this question, which he didn’t quite understand why he wanted to ask, Gu Huai only thought that the strange feeling in his heart became more obvious, but he still couldn’t figure out the reason.
Even if it was a system, as an intelligent life it should have a name or code….The term “System” was the only information it gave him. Gu Huai had always used it as a substitute. However, Gu Huai was now wondering what the name or code of his system was.
It was totally unexpected that the youth would ask this question. The system, who was asked, remained silent for a while, which meant it wanted to escape the question.
But it also found that the youth didn’t plan to let it go easily this time. After a long time, the system stopped, and then said in a cold voice that was not light or heavy: “Noah. “
Noah was its name, but he liked it… the one he loved gave it. It had no code name but it had a nickname, but the latter was not suitable to say at this time.
Noah… Gu Huai thought about the name in his heart. A familiar kind of feeling suddenly came into being for a moment. Gu Huai’s breathing subconsciusly slowed down slightly.
Maybe he heard the name somewhere before. Gu Huai quickly found a reasonable explanation for this groundless familiarity. As a screenwriter, he usually took the initiative to come into contact with a large number of literary, cinematic, and televised works, of which it would not be surprising if there were works featuring the name Noah…
Theoretically, this logic was very reasonable, but Gu Huai still felt like something was wrong, even though he couldn’t find any other explanation. Gu Huai could only suppress his groundless strange feelings for a while.
Since the two events of the unexpected black Weibo posts and the Gu family’s recognition, Gu Huai’s popularity had obviously reached a higher level than before, and a large number of melon eaters had grown familiar with his name through these two events.
Some artists were willing to take the route of “black news” in order to become popular, so there was a saying in the entertainment circle that black rumors was also a kind of popularity. It was not uncommon for artists to become famous by taking the heat first and then slowly washing themselves white.
But Gu Huai’s incident was quite special. Due to the dramatic reversal of the incident, the hired team trying to slander him on the internet with false news not only failed to drive away fans, but also attracted a large number of people’s attention. The number of his fans increased instead of decreasing.
“The world’s clearance value is at 35%.” Gu Huai took the initiative to talk to his system, in order to ease the strange feeling of pressure in the bottom of his heart.
The system originally kept silent after answering the last question of the youth. Now it took several seconds to respond with a dull and low voice: “Hmm.”
He didn’t know if it was a psychological reaction. At this time, listening to the voice of his system, Gu Huai discovered something very late.
In fact, his system and his Chu Chu’s voice… Were somewhat similar?
The timbre was obviously different, but it was also a kind of cold feeling sound, which was related to the tone used by a speaker when they were used to speaking.
“System, call me.” Gu Huai suddenly remembered that his system never addressed him at all, so he intuitively asked.
System: “…”
Facing the silence in the consciousness space, Gu Huai blinked unconsciously, then continued to call for it several times: “System, system, system… Noah?”
It couldn’t understand what the youth was thinking. The system maintained a cold voice as usual, meeting the requirements of the youth, “Host.”
After experiencing many worlds, Gu Huai had never heard his system use the name “host” before today, nor any other name, as if it was deliberately avoiding this matter.
Hearing the call of his system, Gu Huai propped his left hand on his jaw, slightly lowered his eyebrows and eyes, and further demanded, “call me Ah Huai.”
It wasn’t used to saying its host’s name. Gu Huai looked down and thought, he just intuitively wanted to hear his system call his name. He had no reason why.
“… Ah… ” The system squeezed out a monosyllabic sound quite slowly. Only when the first syllable was uttered, its speech was temporarily interrupted due to some inconvenient reasons. It waited for the past few seconds to start again and said slowly: “……Ah Huai. “
The texture of the cold voice was convenient to hide its true emotions, but it was very difficult for the person who heard his name to remain calm.
Their tones were exactly the same. They might not be aware of it but Gu Huai couldn’t ignore his discovery.
At this moment, he understood the reason for the strange and subtle feeling he had. Now, Gu Huai was in a state of surprise because he was suddenly close to the truth.
But simply saying his name in the same tone wasn’t sufficient evidence… Considering this problem, Gu Huai frowned unconsciously. Now he really felt that there were many mysteries in front of him. He had many doubts, but there was one thing that Gu Huai could still be sure of: the other would not do anything to hurt him.
Basically, it had been determined that the system and his lover were the same existence. After hearing the voice of the system whispering his name, Gu Huai fell into deep silence for a long time.
It may have been a coincidence that there was a subtle synchronization between their reactions the first time. It could also have been a coincidence the second time. The third time was definitely not a coincidence.
“Ah Huai?” The young man was stunned for a long time when reading the script. Yan Lin said his name in a low voice and rightfully pecked the youth’s cheek with his thin lips.
The black balls rubbing on the youth also squeaked at this time, expressing their concerns about the youth’s situation.
“Thinking about the plot.” Gu Huai raised his eyes to respond. He basically believed that the system and his family’s Chu Chu were the same, but at the same time, Gu Huai realized something. They might be two independent individuals for the time being.
The former knew the latter, the latter did not know the former. The essence of several individuals differentiated from the same whole was the same existence, according to Gu Huai.
If asked directly, Gu Huai basically surmised that his system would not admit it. Just based on his hypothesis that they were the same existence, Gu Huai could now detect the restraint of the system towards him.
He continued to watch, only taking the initiative to speak out when he couldn’t bear watching anymore. That was the result of trying his best to restrain his pent-up emotions.
With filming imminent, Gu Huai could not fully solve his inner doubts and could only put aside all the problems in his heart for a while.
Most of the resources provided by Donghuang Entertainment didn’t require Gu Huai to audition. Basically, he could get the role he wanted after reading the script.
This level of treatment was really not available to newcomers in Donghuang company. Even Chu Yue, as a new movie emperor, had not enjoyed such treatment. But even if the people in the company found out, thinking of the remarkable experience of the youth’s 360 degree turnaround, they could only swallow up their dissatisfaction and jealousy.
They were all people who acted based on the society they lived in, and this was the entertainment industry, which was like a bottomless pool of water. Naturally, it was essential to know who could and could not be offended. With his current family background, they understood that he had all the resources he needed and that money could make a ghost slave away.
After choosing the script of the detective movie, Gu Huai would play a detective who was very different from his own character.
The hero of the movie was a talented young detective. On normal days, it seemed that he did not do his job at all. When he quarreled with others, his nonsense jabbering could kill people. When he did not talk, he looked calm and handsome. However, when he opened his mouth, he sometimes showed his childish side. He was a character with depth.
Despite his apparent carelessness, the male lead, as a genius detective, managed to gain recognition by his own strength and finally got to investigate the crime scenes and found the truth of the incident.
Gu Huai was also very serious in acting in this movie. He had always acted in TV series, and had never played a role in any movie. Therefore, this movie was Gu Huai’s debut in the movie ranks.
He would not act rashly. During the filming, Gu Huai had pieced together some clues of the system and his family’s Chu Chu in his spare time, and confirmed his judgment again and again.
The only thing that bothered Gu Huai was that these could only be regarded as his subjective feelings and couldn’t be used as substantial evidence to prove to the other that his idea was correct. That was to say, if the other denied, he couldn’t fight it.
So now the question was, how could he make his system voluntarily admit his identity?
