Don't covet a beautiful system! !

The bright voice that rang out from time to time in the room disappeared, the light and shadow in the living room changed, the milky white gauze curtain was blown by the wind, and the rings collided on the track to make a soft sound.

The green shades are swaying, the sky is blue, the sun is a clear golden color, and there are slight noises everywhere in summer.

In the sudden silence, the cat Huahua stopped running after her tail.

It raised its head curiously, and looked at the kitchen where the second owner walked in and never came out again.

Why didn't the master continue to unpack the package?

What about the large plastic duckling that he promised to buy for him?

Are you secretly playing with its little yellow duck! !

The white cat, with its tail up high, walked towards the kitchen, its loving butt shining in the sun.

But when it was about to reach the door of the kitchen, it stopped vigilantly.

Owner No. [-] is also inside.

After getting along for so long, the first master will not tease it like the second master, and is a relatively mature and stable human being.

But Huahua found that since it was thrown out of the room by the neck last time, owner No. [-] began to use this action frequently on it.

For some unknown reason, Master No. [-] became increasingly barbaric.

What a disgusting human being.

Huahua shook her neck. As a smart and witty cat, it decided to crawl by the kitchen door and wait for the second owner to catch him when he came out.

The cat curled up in the corner and curled up into a ball, waiting and waiting, almost falling asleep in the warm weather.

After waiting for a long time, the two masters finally came out.

Huahua stretched her head, but didn't find the little yellow duck for the time being, only saw the flushed cheeks of the second owner.

Is it hot?

It's not hot.

It circled around the number two master, as if trying to find the little yellow duck that he hid.

"Meow meow meow meow?" Where's my gift?

Master No. [-], who usually talks a lot, didn't open his mouth, but Master No. [-] answered it: "This is my gift."

Owner No. [-], who is always cold, seems to be in a good mood when he puts two T-shirts of the same style into the washing machine.

Hearing this, owner No. [-] blushed even more. In addition to being ashamed and indignant, he picked up the cat Huahua, lowered his head and scratched its soft belly.

"Meow meow!" Let go of me!

Why is master number two so hot!

But it is not an ice cube, it cannot be used to cool down! !

The washing machine started to roar continuously, the cat bared its teeth and paws in Ji Tong's arms to resist, and the freshly cooked vegetables were submerged in the boiling soup.

Pei Qingyuan couldn't take his gaze away from the sun.

After lunch, he accompanied Ji Tong to unpack the remaining couriers.

Huahua, who got the little yellow duck as a gift, was finally satisfied. She was lying on the plastic yellow duck, pressing it back and forth with her paws, and listening to it squawking.

Ji Tong bought couple clothes, daily and travel necessities, and a lot of weird gadgets.

From giant butterfly dolls to small ceramic cat ornaments.

Pei Qingyuan opened the package with scissors, and handed the contents to Ji Tong. Ji Tong would ask him if it looked good, and after getting a satisfactory answer, he would put them in a suitable place.

The afternoon was lazy, and the living room echoed with cats and ducks calling one after another.

However, after dismantling a few couriers, Pei Qingyuan noticed a detail.

In the product names on several courier slips, there are words like birthday gifts.

His birthday was in October, which was still early, and none of his acquaintances had a recent birthday.

Seeing Ji Tong holding an astronaut's night light and excitedly putting it on the bedside table, Pei Qingyuan's movements gradually stopped.

After reading the host domestication log, he knew that Ji Tong regretted not being able to celebrate his birthday.

But he also knows that Ji Tong will never take the initiative to bring up those not-happy past events, even if he has to mention them, he will quietly hide the sad part.

So Pei Qingyuan didn't ask specifically, he didn't want to make the atmosphere heavy again.

But today the weather is fine, everything is beautiful and clear, in such a summer day, it seems that the old things can be taken out to dry with light steps.

When Ji Tong finished putting off the night light and sat next to him again, Pei Qingyuan asked, "Are you buying yourself a birthday present?"

His tone was very ordinary, Ji Tong was taken aback for a moment, then nodded a little embarrassedly: "I searched for keywords, and then I saw a lot of interesting things, so I bought some."

"When is your birthday?"

"There are still more than 20 days left, which is June NO.17." Ji Tong's answer was also very ordinary, full of personal characteristics, "So theoretically, I am really an older brother."

Pei Qingyuan corrected him: "You said that the timeline is different. In fact, I am a month or two older than you."

Then, he changed the subject and said inexplicably, "Or, do you want me to call you brother again?"

Ji Tong has no guts: "...I don't want it anymore."

There is a price to be paid for being called brother.

On the issue of age and height, he decided to accept his fate for the time being.

Wait until the day when you can beat Pei Qingyuan and the mastermind, then discuss.

It just sounds a little far away, alas.

Seeing his constantly changing expression, Pei Qingyuan knew that he was planning something strange again.

The atmosphere is still light.

So his voice was gentle: "You don't need to buy it yourself, I will give you a birthday present."

June NO.17 was a very good day a few days after the international competition ended.

Flowers, trophies, fresh scenery, and a first birthday.

Ji Tong let out a calm expression, and reached out to take down an unopened package.

A few seconds later, he couldn't help peeking at Pei Qingyuan: "What gift?"

"You don't know the gift until your birthday."

Ji Tong let out another oh, and watched him unpack the package with his chin resting. After watching for a while, he said abruptly, "I can't guess what you will send."

Pei Qingyuan laughed: "Then don't guess."

"But I'm about to receive a present." Ji Tong's eyes were bright, twinkling like stars, "It's a birthday present."

He didn't say he was happy, but there was joy in every syllable.

If it weren't for the fact that his hands were dirty from the parcel bag, Pei Qingyuan would definitely rub his head.

"Well, you're going to get a lot of birthday presents."

More gifts than those missed.

Ji Tong then asked: "How much is a lot?"

The cat circled around the little yellow duck full of novelty, and he happily kept asking questions.

This is what he has always wanted most, an ordinary life, and an ordinary conversation.

"Will you give me a lot of gifts, or will a lot of people give me gifts?"

Ji Tong thought for a while: "No, other people don't know when my birthday is, should I post a Moments to let everyone know?"

"How do you make the notification more natural?" He fell into deep thought. "Do you think ten days' notice is enough to give everyone the time to prepare gifts..."

The teenagers around him always had endless things to say, but Pei Qingyuan couldn't find the right words to answer.

He had to kiss the stars in the day.

Until the stars close their eyes again.

Half a month later, the airport.

There were people coming and going everywhere, in the departure hall, Ouyang Yu, who had arrived early because of his excitement, was playing with his phone while waiting for his teammates to come over.

He was happily scrolling through Moments, but suddenly frowned.

[Ji Tong: Let's go to the airport!In addition to the competition this month, there is another very important thing, that is]

Then it was gone, and it stopped abruptly.

The accompanying picture is the clear sky and residential buildings in summer. It is estimated that it was taken casually when I went out.

The question is, what's the big deal?

Ouyang Yu hung there without coming up, typing comments in a crackling voice.

[Ouyang Yu:? ?Have you been kidnapped?Don't speak half of your words! ! ]

[Ji Tong replied to Ouyang Yu: Warm up, let’s talk about the rest next time ヾ(@^▽^@)ノ]

College students hooked by curiosity protested one after another.

[Cui Yinan: What is it?Are you finally going to move out of the dormitory with Brother Pei to live in a two-person world? ]

[Huang Wen replied to Cui Yinan: Huh? ?Is it what I think it is? ? ]

[Ouyang Yu replied to Huang Wen: Tsk, this is probably a straight man, you have lived up to your name. ]

[Xie Yuchi: Damn, can you finish the sentence?Your phone was stolen by your boyfriend? ]

[Ji Tong replied to Xie Yuchi: Don't swear. ]

[Ji Tong replied to Xie Yuchi: I didn't take it away, I also sent the above sentence for him. ]

Seeing this, Ouyang Yu decided to put down his phone and stop seeking abuse.

Annoying stinky couple.

But not long after he put away his mobile phone, not only did his teammates and their families arrive one after another, but he was also attacked by a stinky couple in reality.

Not far away, two boys came here wearing the same white T-shirt and pushing the same black suitcase.

Their clothes and suitcases are all the same style, the only difference is their temperament, and the suitcase pushed by the more lively boy is covered with gaudy stickers.

Lin Rui made a naive voice: "Is that a team uniform? Why don't we have one? This suitcase is also pretty."

Xie Yuchi wanted to roll his eyes: "Why don't you go ask the captain if he can give you a set."

Ouyang Yu smiled sourly: "It's okay, it will be winter after getting off the plane, and the couple's T-shirts are only temporary."

As a result, after getting off the plane and arriving on the other side of the world, everyone crossed the corridor bridge, and when they opened the boxes to get clothes in the warm terminal, Ji Tong and Pei Qingyuan took out the same style and different colors of coats.

Ji Tong wears white, Pei Qingyuan wears black, they look more like a couple than the same color.

Moreover, Pei Qingyuan took out two dark blue scarves from the box and wrapped them around Ji Tong first.

The dark blue scarf is embellished on Ji Tong's white coat, which is very conspicuous, and a little cute mushroom pattern is exposed on the edge of the scarf.

unacceptable.

It's not that people don't know how to wear scarves by themselves!

And why even scarves are for couples! !

Ouyang Yu feels that even the down jacket can't warm his cold heart now.

Lin Rui looked a little melancholy: "I miss my girlfriend."

Ouyang Yu got shot again: "You guys have only been separated for half a day, alright, senior sister is here to see you off!"

Lin Rui spread his hands and sighed: "It's love, that's how it is."

... The world is so unfriendly to single dogs.

Ouyang Yu looked at Xie Yuchi sadly: "Aren't we two really miserable?"

It was rare for Xie Yuchi to not dislike this increasingly perverted junior, and agreed: "There is a point."

He was just about to criticize the shameful behavior of the other two juniors, Hua Huaxiu, when he heard Ji Tong say, "Xiao Hei came to pick us up from the airport in a while, and we transported Xiao He here in advance and hired a local driver." .”

Ji Tong looked at him with a smile: "Senior Xie, if you need a car, you can do it anytime."

He still remembered that Xie Yuchi said that he wanted to use Xiao Hei to drive in front of the scumbag for a ride. The scumbag senior was still studying this major after going abroad, and he might also come to participate in this year's international competition.

Although in reality, international car consignment is a bit troublesome and time-consuming, most people would not do it.

However, Xiao Hei is not an ordinary car, and Ji Tong is not an ordinary person either.

Asking is the magic of the mysterious rich Mr. Ji.

Ouyang Yu watched helplessly as Xie Yuchi's Bingshan face showed vivid emotions for the first time.

The unspoken criticism has also become a compliment.

"What's the other important thing this month?" Xie Yuchi said enthusiastically, "Actually, I don't think other things are too important. I want to attend your wedding most now."

Ouyang Yu: ...

traitor!

but.

"This scarf is so cute, it matches the two of you so well." Ouyang Yu quickly changed his mind, "Xiao Hei is here, can you lend me a day?"

Even if he hasn't figured out why he wants to drive Xiao Hei, he will borrow it first.

There is no way, Xiao Hei is really too cool.

In the harsh winter of a foreign country, the laughter spread far away.

Because Ji Tong, who was looking forward to traveling abroad, had packed his suitcase early and was looking forward to departure every day, so Pei Qingyuan's team was the first to arrive.

Other teams that were going to participate in the international competition, such as Qiao Yunhe and others, also arrived in the following day or two. Anyway, the school granted a holiday, so it would be nice to take the opportunity to play abroad for a few days.

The teachers in the courtyard have teaching tasks, and they basically arrive the day before the competition.

But no matter who it is, when they see Xiao Hei who comes to greet him at the airport, they will make a similar sound.

"Sitting in this car, I feel that I am not here to participate in the competition, but to inspect investment."

Qiao Yunhe, who has outstanding language skills, said so.

During this period, the local driver and tour guide who couldn't help but say "holyshit" every day when he got into Xiaohei took everyone to visit many famous scenic spots. Ji Tong had a great time along the way.

The camera he used to hang around his neck is always held by Pei Qingyuan now, taking many photos of him.

The pea-green robot Mark also has a special seat in the car, and is treated like a human being, chatting with people in the car.

This is the happiest picture Ji Tong can imagine.

It would be even better if there is snow.

Although he has had snowball fights with people, he has not seen snowflakes falling in June.

"Mark, when will it snow?"

Mark quickly searched for weather information and replied: "There is a 60.00% chance of snowfall tonight."

Ji Tong's eyes lit up: "I think it will definitely snow."

Tomorrow the competition will officially start, and tonight the organizer has set up a buffet for the contestants to communicate with the visiting guests.

Mark nodded: "I hope it will snow."

It is now the most daily friendly mode, which can be regarded as a comprehensive weakened version of the rainbow fart and flattery mode.

Ouyang Yu was ready to move: "Mark is so out of character, I really want to switch to a new mode."

This sentence was immediately strictly stopped by everyone present except Ji Tong.

They don't want to be infected by Mark like that, this ultimate move is used to infect the opponent.

"Can't we just let Mark say a few words?"

Xie Yuchi was ruthless: "No, I still want to have a good conversation with people at night, so I made an appointment with several old friends to meet at the dinner party."

Ouyang Yu, who was in love with Mark, fought and said: "If it snows tonight, how about releasing a new version of Mark? Don't you want to hear what Mark has to say about the snowy night?"

"...All right, but it can only be released for 3 minutes, and you have to wait until the meal is over."

The instigator, Ji Tong, laughed happily, and Mark also raised the corners of his mouth.

This scene was frozen in the camera in Pei Qingyuan's hand.

Ji Tong turned his head and asked him: "Senior Xie and Senior Lin have a team they know, but we probably don't know anyone. Will the buffet at night be boring?"

"No." Pei Qingyuan put away the camera, "There will be a lot of people coming to chat with us. If you feel bored, we can leave halfway."

The competition system of the RS Cup domestic and international competitions is basically the same. The most watched and longest schedule is still football competitions. The life events they participate in do not need to be compared round after round, and this time there is no comparison. In the field of poker robots, the works of all teams are different, as long as they are displayed in order and scored by the judges, then compare the scores.

However, as the champion of this event in the domestic competition area, Robot Mark still received a lot of attention, and the video of the competition was also circulated.

It is a pity that after translation, the charm of Mark's language has been diminished, but this innovative concept and quite amazing completion have aroused many people's discussions.

The champion team of this competition last year paid close attention to this work.

At the brightly lit buffet, Ji Tong carefully selected his favorite food, and this time he didn't need Pei Qingyuan to taste it for him.

Pei Qingyuan accompanied him to get food, Xie Yuchi and Lin Rui went to chat with acquaintances, Ouyang Yu was still making video calls with his family at the hotel, and would come back later, anyway, this meal is a voluntary event, not very important, he I'm not too used to the food here, so I'm going to fill my stomach before coming back.

Ji Tong, who loves everything, just filled a plate when he saw a few blond foreigners approaching him, and politely said in a foreign language: "Good evening, did you develop the robot Mark?"

Ji Tong was featured in the video of Mark playing cards, so he was the first to be recognized.

Ji Tong nodded.

Several people looked quite excited: "Your ideas are very novel."

Ji Tong was busy eating, so Pei Qingyuan greeted them politely in fluent foreign language.

It turned out that this was the team that won the championship of this project last year. Several team members were enthusiastic and hearty. They have been praising Mark's design innovations and doing some technical discussions.

Ji Tong ate and listened quietly, only thinking that Pei Qingyuan's foreign language was also very pleasant to hear.

But at the end of the chat, their expressions seemed a little regretful.

"With your abilities, you should do something more valuable to people." The foreign girl named Annie said, "I don't mean that Mark is bad, but it can only be used for entertainment after all, without any practical utility."

"Mark is interesting, but it's a kind of meaningless interesting. Maybe you should spend your energy on the real thing and contribute something to the world... I hope you don't mind my offense."

"Thank you for your suggestion." Pei Qingyuan said calmly, "But I don't think so. Meaning is a subjective concept, and there is no single correct standard."

In the subtle silence, another slightly teasing male voice intervened: "Annie, you always want to do something for this world."

Annie and her companions turned their heads and said in surprise, "Hey, Zhuang, you're here too."

There was a hint of surprise in Ji Tong's eyes.

He didn't expect to meet an old friend he didn't know very well here.

Pei Qingyuan's classmate when he was studying in a private high school was also the president of the student union of that school.

Because he clashed with Mr. Ji while laughing, Ji Tong disliked him, so Pei Qingyuan took the initiative to promise not to associate with him as much as possible, since he was not familiar with him anyway.

Seeing the similar oriental faces of the three of them, Annie asked curiously, "You seem to be from the same country, are you acquaintances?"

Zhuang Wenbai smiled and said, "Well, I'm Pei's high school classmate."

After a brief chat, Annie and the others left, leaving space for them.

Looking at the backs of several people leaving, Zhuang Wenbai smiled with emotion, and said to Pei Qingyuan: "Long time no see."

Because of the promise he made to Ji Tong at the beginning, Pei Qingyuan didn't want to have too much communication with him, but after all, he met by chance in a foreign country, so he still responded, "Long time no see."

Ji Tong remembered very clearly that the day Pei Qingyuan walked into the classroom as an exchange student, Zhuang Wenbai greeted him in the same way.

Zhuang Wenbai didn't know Ji Tong, so he looked at Ji Tong and asked, "Is your teammate?"

"Yeah." Pei Qingyuan didn't intend to introduce him, and said lightly, "Are you coming to the competition too?"

"No." Zhuang Wenbai still smiled, "I'm here to find opportunities."

At the same time, Ji Tong quietly searched for information about Zhuang Wenbai in his mind.

He was surprised to find that today was not the first time they met Zhuang Wenbai since they graduated from high school.

When Pei Qingyuan’s uncle Pei Siyou’s jelly bean graffiti became popular on the Internet, it was once mistakenly associated with a foreign emerging technology company called Zart, and it was regarded as the latter’s publicity for promoting products. picture.

It was a company founded overseas by Zhuang Wenbai's family.

And Zhuang Wenbai went abroad to study after graduating from high school, but his major was not finance and business, which is common among rich second-generation groups, nor did it involve the field of science and technology, but art history.

When Pei Minghong's enterprise underwent a major shake-up, one of the capital involved behind it came from the banker.

Just like Ji Tong's previous analysis, this person really has a villainous temperament.

Ji Tong looked in the direction where Zhuang Wenbai came, and there stood a group of middle-aged people talking with wine glasses, they were obviously businessmen.

Zhuang Wenbai seemed quite interested in him, noticed his gaze, and took the initiative to explain: "Their purpose of coming here is the same as mine, even though they know nothing about artificial intelligence."

"Of course, I don't know much about it." Zhuang Wenbai spoke frankly, "But everyone says that artificial intelligence is the electricity of the future."

He smiled warmly: "No one wants to miss an opportunity to master electrical energy."

Someone in the group turned around and motioned to him, probably to let him go, he nodded, and finally said to Pei Qingyuan: "Your robot is very interesting, congratulations in advance on the good grades you will get."

The conversation simply ended.

After Zhuang Wenbai walked away, Ji Tong immediately told Pei Qingyuan the information he had found.

"Ruan Ruan, what kind of person do you think he is?"

Pei Qingyuan's answer was concise and to the point: "A careerist."

Ji Tong thought about it, and thought it was very appropriate: "I feel like he doesn't like you very much."

Although Zhuang Wenbai's performance has always been very decent, Ji Tong can feel a faint rejection.

Pei Qingyuan acquiesced to his words, and asked, "During high school, why did you tell me not to associate with him?"

Ji Tong said truthfully: "Because Sister Yinyin taught me some stereotype judgment methods at that time... I think he might be a villain."

"What stereotype?"

Ji Tong quickly recited: "This kind of guy with glasses who is handsome, gentle, courteous, friendly and family-friendly is either the infatuated second guy who loves the heroine unrequitedly in the urban love world but can't let go in the end, or he is the scheming man in the urban business world. A paranoid villain who is deep and good at disguising."

Hearing what he said, Pei Qingyuan couldn't help but said: "Then I hope he is the second type of villain."

"Why?" Ji Tong was puzzled.

"Because the mastermind said that this is a world dominated by career lines."

Right.

Ji Tong let out a rather bored voice, and then heard Pei Qingyuan say: "It's also because the villains in the career line take longer to resolve."

Ji Tong looked at him unexpectedly.

"That means there's a long way to go."

Pei Qingyuan stared into his eyes seriously: "And every time I see this villain, I always think of someone who told me in my heart that I don't like seeing him smile."

According to the current trajectory, if Zhuang Wenbai wants to enter this field, there will definitely be an intersection in the future, maybe a partner, or a rival, and the probability of the latter should be higher.

Pei Qingyuan doesn't hate this kind of future, but looks forward to it.

As long as the people around you at this moment will still be there at that time.

Together they keep secrets and memories that no one knows.

When his voice fell, snowflakes began to float outside the window of the banquet hall.

A surprised smile appeared on Ji Tong's face: "It's really snowing tonight."

"Well, it's snowing."

Pei Qingyuan let him drag him out of the banquet hall.

Young lovers walking into the snow holding hands.

"I like to see you smile." Ji Tong said, "but it's also good not to smile."

"Everything is fine."

The breath condensed into white mist, and small snowflakes fell on the trembling eyelashes.

Ji Tong posted another circle of friends.

[Ji Tong: It's snowing today, on the other side of the world.I like June, because it will be a year older, and it is a very important year. ]

The accompanying picture is snow fluttering in the night sky.

In the hotel room, Ouyang Yu, who was about to go out, took a long breath of relief and put down the hook hanging in his heart: "So it's my birthday this month, I thought it was something."

The next second, another one popped out.

[Ji Tong: In the future, we will also watch snow together, winter snow and summer snow. ]

The accompanying picture is two interlaced shadows on the snow.

...Smelly couple!

Out of anger, Ouyang Yu dialed back to his parents who had just hung up the video call: "Dad, Mom, it's snowing here."

He held up his mobile phone and walked to the window. When he passed by Mark, he remembered something and said excitedly, "By the way, I'll show you a fun one."

"Mark, switch to Mary mode." Ouyang Yu cleared his throat, "Look, it's snowing outside."

Under the curious gaze of the middle-aged couple on the video call, Mark turned the camera's eyes to look out of the snow-covered window while moving the scroll wheel.

The night is as bright as a jewel, illuminating the pea-green mechanical shell of the robot, and there is another decoration on its smooth mechanical wrist, a handsome black watch.

The street lamps were dim and the moonlight was bright white. People walking on the street opened their palms to catch the falling snowflakes.

"Oh my God……"

Mark stood by the window and uttered a gentle aria: "This is really a wonderful night."
