The secretary was rather efficient, and he speedily booked tickets to Europe for the next morning.
However, Zhou Wenyan received a transnational call from Dad Zhou late at night.
"I heard you booked a flight ticket to Europe from the secretary." When you heard Dad Zhou's voice on the phone, you knew he was a middle-aged man who lived like a prince, "What's going on?"
"I happen to be traveling to Europe to take care of a minor matter, so I'll drop in and see you," Zhou Wenyan said casually, unconsciously rubbing the phone case with his fingers.
Dad Zhou laughed heartily: "That's not necessary. We're about to leave for China."
Zhou Wenyan's eyes darkened, but his pleasant tone remained unchanged: "Didn't you say you wanted to play for another two months?"
Dad Zhou stated: "Alas, there's an unexpected situation here. Your mother is having problems acclimatizing, so we decided to return early. We'll co back by plane the day after tomorrow. There's no need for you to et us at the airport."
Dad Zhou was about to hang up the phone when Zhou Wenyan stopped him, saying, "There is sothing I want to ask you."
"What is it?" asked Dad Zhou.
"Do you recall the great master who treated
back then?" Zhou Wenyan inquired.
"I rember," Dad Zhou answered after a little pause. "What's the problem?"
"What is that master's background?" Zhou Wenyan asked.
"He was introduced by soone else," said Dad Zhou. "At the ti, I had the mindset of giving it a shot but didn't expect you to be truly cured. Later, the great master went to wander, and I haven't heard anything since."
Zhou Wenyan was inquisitive and questioned, "Who introduced him?"
"It's been so long that I've forgotten…" Dad Zhou laughed. "Let's speak about it when I get back."
Dad Zhou seed concerned about what Zhou Wenyan would question again. He hastily hung up the phone, and the screen went dark all of a sudden.
Zhou Wenyan set down the phone.
Shen Dongqing was using a controller to play a ga. When he heard Zhou Wenyan move, he paused the ga and turned to face him.
Zhou Wenyan: "It's nothing."
He sat next to Shen Dongqing, cross-legged.
Shen Dongqing stuffed a video ga controller into his hands.
Zhou Wenyan was a little absent-minded, made two small mistakes in a row, and died in front of the boss. He lifted his hand to rub his forehead, adding quietly, "I'm not myself, I'm not playing well."
"It's fine," Shen Dongqing responded. He resud playing competently, without forgetting to pay attention to the man beside him, "What's wrong?"
Zhou Wenyan: "I keep feeling it's strange."
Bang—
After a few operations, the boss dropped to the ground, and the screen displayed the two words "Level cleared."
Only then did Shen Dongqing take the ti to respond: "What's strange?"
Zhou Wenyan bent his head in thought, palms on his knees: "I can't explain it, but I just feel…" He couldn't put his finger on it. All kinds of words swirled around on his tongue before he finally said, "Let's go back to the old house to have a look."
He wanted to examine the ga's mainfra once again.
Shen Dongqing was baffled: "Go back? Whatever for?"
Zhou Wenyan: "The basent." He had already gotten up to drive, not wanting to waste any more ti.
Shen Dongqing raised his hand and grabbed Zhou Wenyan's shirt hem. He gazed up at him after pulling him back: "Do you want to examine the ga's mainfra? But I can't get in," he said, tilting his head.
"Can't get in?" Zhou Wenyan was astonished.
"That's right. The controller can only be used once, and now no one can access the core of the ga," Shen Dongqing pouted hard, pointing to the jade gourd on his wrist.
Zhou Wenyan lowered his gaze to observe.
The jade gourd, which was originally transparent and glossy, had beco dull and its surface was cracked with a dent, as if it would split open with a light touch.
Shen Dongqing: "Going there is pointless. There's nothing there but the basent."

Two days later.
Despite Dad Zhou's assertion that there was no need to pick them up at the airport, Zhou Wenyan estimated the timing and arrived early.
Shen Dongqing sat beside Zhou Wenyan, rubbing his eyes and wiping away tears from the corners of his eyes. He had nothing to do after resolving the ga problem and had beco an out-and-out Internet junkie. He stayed up late last night playing video gas and was still drowsy.
"Why don't you take a nap?" suggested Zhou Wenyan, placing his hand on his shoulder.
Shen Dongqing opened his bloodshot eyes and asked vaguely, "Are they almost here?"
"There is still so ti," Zhou Wenyan stated, looking at the electronic screen.
Shen Dongqing let out an "mn
