Don’t Covet the Beautiful System!!

Chapter 85

When the host was in high school, among the hundred kinds of flowers that Ji Tong secretly planted in his heart, there was paulownia flower.

The eyes of the little robot wandered back and forth between the two kinds of Paulownia flowers.

The same sea of purple flowers and swaying petals, I always feel that there is something different.

Why is it better to grow out of the host’s tree?

…the robot flower farmer who thought he was professional enough felt a 10,000-point critical hit.

Pei Qingyuan, who was packing his suitcase, heard his system sigh faintly: “Host, it’s summer now.”

“Well, it’s summer.” He responded.

He heard Ji Tong mutter again: “Blooms in summer, why not pomegranates?”

Paulownia is a spring flower.

Ji Tong couldn’t conjure up food, so he even counted on the only tree not planted by him to be a fruit tree, so that he could harvest the fruit in autumn, and maybe he could realize his great dream of eating in the virtual space.

Pei Qingyuan didn’t understand what he was saying, but he accurately predicted the meaning behind the sentence: “Do you want to eat pomegranate?”

“No…” Ji Tong subconsciously retorted halfway, and couldn’t help but imagined the sweet and sour pomegranate seeds, and flexibly changed his words, “Are there any pomegranates for sale now?”

“Yes.” Pei Qingyuan said, “Many fruit trees are in harvest season, do you want to go to the mountains to play?”

Ji Tong quickly remembered what Pei Huaishan said last year, and his eyes lit up: “Mountain spring hot pot!”

Grandpa once asked Pei Qingyuan to go to the mountains to play in the summer vacation after the college entrance examination. It is best to bring friends to go lively.

“Grandpa contacted me before, and now the time is just right.”

When the fruit is ripe, you won’t meet the person you’d better not meet.

The fragrant fruit and the steaming hot spring water hot pot have already appeared in his mind, Ji Tong immediately got up and joined the team to pack his luggage, and couldn’t wait to say: “The next stop is to go to Grandpa’s!”

Pei Qingyuan did plan like this at first.

Taking Ji Tong around the country, on the return trip, he went to grandpa’s cool and quiet mountain to stay for a few days, and finally returned home with peace of mind.

It’s just that what he thought at that time was, as Pei Huaishan said, take friends to play during the summer vacation, let Ji Tong have a good meal, and let grandpa see his new friend with his own eyes.

But now, it’s not just friends.

When Pei Huaishan received these two young men who were full of summer breath at the foot of the mountain, he smiled happily.

“Are you Qing Yuan’s high school classmate? What’s your name?”

“Grandpa, my name is Ji Tong.” The strange boy answered him with some trepidation, “I’m not my brother’s classmate… I haven’t been to high school.”

Pei Huaishan was startled at first.

He seems to have heard the name Ji Tong a long time ago.

But these memories have disappeared in the depths of time, blurred.

He was quickly distracted by Ji Tong’s life story.

It turned out that the two children were not classmates, nor even friends in the conventional sense.

Ji Tong was met by Pei Qingyuan on the street by accident. He had no home and didn’t know who his parents were. He was an orphan and grew up in an orphanage. He didn’t remember many things, but he still remembered the reason for his name. Because there used to be a big paulownia tree growing in the orphanage that has long since disappeared.

“Actually, I guessed it.” Ji Tong said to him with a smile, “At that time, I was young and didn’t want to have the same name as the tree. I thought it was very casual, until someone told me that the paulownia flowers in spring are very beautiful. I just started to like this tree.”

His tone was not sad at all, but the elderly Pei Huaishan always could not hear such sad stories.

Pei Qingyuan, who came back with a freshly washed fresh fruit, looked suspiciously at the grandfather who secretly turned his back to wipe his tears: “What are you talking about?”

The old and the young shook their heads in unison: “It’s nothing.”

The mountain wind blew the shadows of the trees, and in front of the window full of green shade, Ji Tong gnawed on the peaches while praising the sweetness of the flesh with simple and sincere sentences, his eyes were full of satisfaction, the puppy raised by the old man was so rare that he was not afraid of life, and he pawed affectionately at his feet Turning around.

Contrary to his unfortunate life experience, he looks like he grew up in countless happiness, clear and bright, making people want to get close for no reason.

The old man couldn’t help thinking, who said that to him?

Under the sunlight, Pei Huaishan saw Pei Qingyuan peeling a pomegranate and putting red crystals into a white porcelain bowl.

Pei Huaishan didn’t listen to the “amnesia” Ji Tong tell more about the past, but he seemed to be able to clearly see the child sitting under the tree and staring at the sun.

A long time later, on the lonely street in the middle of the night, he waited for another person who needed the sun.

So Pei Huaishan guessed that those words should be said by the person who was concentrating on peeling the pomegranate.

It was the first time he saw his former grandson treat a peer in this way.

That obviously goes beyond the boundaries of ordinary friends.

But the same gender makes people subconsciously want to bypass the most logical answer.

The puppy who kept circling wanted to lead Ji Tong to the mountains. He got up obediently, greeted his elders, and walked into Luyi with the puppy.

The clean house that was caged in the shade of the trees fell silent in an instant.

After Pei Qingyuan left Pei’s house, this was the first time that the unrelated grandpa and grandson chatted without burden like this.

“Have you thought about what you want to do in the future?”

“I want to study bionic robots.”

Pei Qingyuan answered him like this.

Pei Huaishan knew that Pei Qingyuan had been admitted to the major of artificial intelligence, and he had also read the news that had made a lot of noise on the Internet, but he didn’t believe the plots made up by netizens themselves.

“It’s something worth exploring.”

Pei Huaishan showed affirmation.

He doesn’t understand these new things, but he knows that this is the direction of the future, and he knows that the precocious young people in front of him are capable enough.

“You will succeed.” There seemed to be a sense of loss in the old voice, “What about the family?”

A family that includes family and love.

Hearing this, the fingers that were removing the pomegranate seeds did not stop at all.

“I have a home now.”

Pei Huaishan watched his movements and said in a deep voice, “You know what you’re doing.”

This should have been a question, but Pei Huaishan said it with certainty.

Pei Qingyuan nodded: “I know.”

After a moment of silence, Pei Huaishan made up his mind, and there was a sighing smile in the wrinkles of his eyes: “You have been such a stubborn child since you were a child.”

“I hope you’re right to be stubborn this time.”

He reached out and took away the scattered mottled peels on the table, leaving only half a pomegranate in Pei Qingyuan’s hand that hadn’t been peeled.

And half a bowl of tiny red gemstones.

When the dusk fell, most of the gems entered Ji Tong’s stomach.

He likes the end of this summer. He can lazily sit on a rocking chair surrounded by the mountain wind and look at the mountains immersed in the setting sun in the distance. Beautiful pomegranate seeds, fruity and grassy aromas wafting in the wind.

It’s a beautiful thing to be alive, he thought.

The host, who no longer wore silver-rimmed glasses, was sitting on a chair next to him, holding a notebook in his hand, and was helping his grandfather read a line of small characters that he couldn’t read clearly. Ji Tong generously grabbed a handful of pomegranate seeds and handed it to him.

Pei Qingyuan was stunned, spread his palms, and his pale fingertips, which were particularly eye-catching in the bright red, lightly slid across his palm.

Like a gust of wind that penetrated into the bottom of my heart.

There is a slight sourness in the sweetness.

“It’s delicious,” he said.

Ji Tong, who is well versed in the way of borrowing flowers to offer Buddha, smiled with crooked eyebrows: “You’re welcome.”

A week later, under Pei Huaishan’s persevering eyes, Pei Qingyuan and Ji Tong’s graduation trip officially ended and they started their journey home.

Ji Tong leaned in front of the rear window and kept waving at his grandfather who was going away. After a long while, he whispered, “The holiday is coming to an end.”

It’s late August, and there are only ten days left before school starts.

Ji Tong sat down again, with a hint of apprehension in his tone: “I’m going to take the exam…”

A human being who is trying to disguise himself as an artificial intelligence is about to take an artificial intelligence professional entrance exam organized by a group of human beings who specialize in artificial intelligence with the identity of an artificial intelligence disguised as a human being.

It is really a set of unprecedented nesting doll operations.

Before he finished speaking, Pei Qingyuan beside him said: “I will wait for you outside the examination room.”

It wasn’t until this moment that Pei Qingyuan realized that no matter how much he believed in Ji Tong’s ability, he would still feel nervous about this important moment for him.

Just like Ji Tong was nervous about him before the college entrance examination.

This mood has nothing to do with rational reality and is driven only by pure emotion.

“I will behave well.” Ji Tong took a deep breath, trying to relax, “By the way, will you let Xiaomei accept an interview with Reporter Li?”

The fourth main task has been triggered. Ji Tong has thought about it. With the personality of the host, he is definitely not willing to be exposed to the camera for a long time. Netizens are still curious about the jelly bean robot, so they can take this opportunity to use Xiaomei to complete it. The first pot of gold in the business, such as making this weird jelly bean robot image advertise, will be rewarded by the platform even if it is just the traffic converted from interviews.

The jelly bean robot was made by the host himself, and the income related to it can certainly be regarded as the first pot of gold in his career.

Pei Qingyuan’s answer was very concise: “It’s up to you to decide, Xiaomei is yours.”

Ji Tong was even more confused.

He really wanted to complete this task quickly to prolong the duration of the advanced form and facilitate campus life during college, but he was also a little bit reluctant to part with Xiaomei who only belonged to him at the moment.

People will always have selfishness.

Seeing his changing expression, Pei Qingyuan took the initiative to say: “Can infringement compensation be regarded as the first pot of gold?”

“What?” Ji Tong didn’t realize it for a while, “As long as you earn money by yourself, it should be counted…Except for scholarships.”

“I registered various patents after Jelly Bean was completed, and there are many similar-looking pirated versions on the Internet.”

Although Pei Qingyuan at that time could not predict what happened later, using jelly bean robots to complete influence tasks has always been one of the options, so he registered the patent in advance to prevent possible future infringements.

“If the compensation obtained after suing them can be used to complete the task, you only need to consider whether you want others to see Xiaomei.”

Ji Tong poked at the task panel, but was not refuted. The route proposed by the host should be feasible.

Overjoyed, he felt that starting from this mission, the host seemed to be a little different.

The host figured out how to complete the task earlier than him.

Immersed in the complicated mood of the child growing up, Ji Tong sighed quietly, and couldn’t help but think of the comments from netizens he had seen before.

Many people recalled their childhood under the video of Pei Qingyuan introducing the original intention of the one-to-one design of the Tangdou robot.

Plush dolls, building blocks, dolls, and even a small blanket, many people have the experience of growing up with these objects.

Most of them can’t speak or move, but they have accompanied a child through perhaps the most fragile time, and the childish tears that have dried up have condensed on them. After the owner grows up, they are gradually forgotten or kept cherished forever. .

If these silent companions are replaced by a talking, laughing and dancing robot, will those lonely childhood become more lively? Can those childlike whispers that can only be said to dolls get a warmer response?

Ji Tong thought for a long time before saying, “It would be great if every child had a little beauty.”

“But you can’t all be called Xiaomei.” He added, “This is my name.”

Hearing his childish tone, Pei Qingyuan flashed a smile on his face.

“Do you want this wish to come true?”

Ji Tong looked up at the host blankly, this sentence was more of a casual feeling, he subconsciously felt that this was impossible, and never really imagined it.

But he saw a very stubborn light in Pei Qingyuan’s eyes, flickering with the palpitating waves when he saw Pei Qingyuan for the first time.

“If you wish.” He heard a determined voice close at hand, “I will make it a reality.”
