Chapter Fifty-Three: Post-holiday Syndrome (2/2)
“You can shut up now.” Yan Jin ended Chu Ge’s nonsense straightforwardly: “Is Fishy okay?”
Chu Ge felt helpless: “I’ve said before that I’m not a veterinarian. If you must seek my opinion, I prefer to believe in science. Since the report shows that everything is normal, then I will believe that there is no problem.”
“Plus, the spectator sees more of the game. I feel that you’re too tense instead.” Chu Ge touched Xiao Yu as if they were best buddies: “Don’t you agree with me, Brother Ham?”
Xiao Yu, who usually couldn’t find a common topic with Chu Ge, nodded his head in agreement this time.
“Squeakk.” That’s exactly the case.
Yan Jin was still unwilling to give up and tried to confirm again: “There’s really no problem, Fishy?”
“Squeakk.” Really. More real than gold.
Xiao Yu nodded his head immediately.
And that was how the entire incident finally ended after running around in circles.
That night, Yan Jin and Chu Ge went out for dinner, leaving the hamster Xiao Yu in the bedroom.
Yan Jin’s original idea was to let Xiao Yu have a proper rest and adjust himself back to normal. However, he made a big mistake –
Not putting away the iPad on the table.
Xiao Yu would definitely not go to bed obediently when electronic devices were readily available.
Xiao Yu, who had not played any games for five whole days, could feel his skills dropping. The moment Yan Jin left home, the hamster immediately switched on the iPad and prepared to make full use of the remaining holiday.
Then, Xiao Yu, who had all his plans thought out, realized that he could not find his games.
First swipe, nothing – Xiao Yu thought that he must have missed them. Second swipe, still nothing – Xiao Yu sensed something weird. Then came the third swipe –
This time, the hamster looked through all of the icons, but still could not find them.
… Where were his games?
Xiao Yu had the shocking revelation that all the games on the iPad were gone.
In that split second, Xiao Yu’s first reaction was that the iPad was in Yan Jin’s hands the whole time. Yan Jin was the only person who could have deleted his games. But why would Yan Jin delete his games?
Could it be… he was discovered?
Wait, wait.
Xiao Yu forced himself to calm down and analyze the situation. If he really was exposed, then it was definitely impossible for Yan Jin to do nothing. The chairman would surely confront him face to face. Since Yan Jin did not have any special reaction, then it must have meant that Xiao Yu was not exposed.
Since he was not exposed, could Yan Jin have just casually deleted those games?
At this moment, Xiao Yu’s brain went into overdrive – He quickly checked the iPad’s internal memory storage and just as he expected, there were less than 2GB left.
It was probably because Yan Jin thought that there wasn’t enough memory, so he deleted some apps to save the videos.
Hm, seems logical.
What a false alarm.
The other games wouldn’t have mattered – Xiao Yu wasn’t playing those games anymore. However, he still downloaded Toxic back onto his iPad.
After downloading the game, Xiao Yu looked at the login screen and hesitated.
Previously, Yan Jin only touched the video apps and ignored the others. Xiao Yu did not expect that the chairman would suddenly mess with the other apps this time.
However, because of the previous offense, Xiao Yu was now worried that Yan Jin would suddenly think about opening Toxic to play.
The problem was that this was his Toxic account. It was tied to his QQ, and his QQ account was Fish and Hamster – You Can’t Have Both.
If Yan Jin was to find out about that…
If Xiao Yu simply stopped playing the game, that would solve all of the problems once and for all. However, Xiao Yu honestly couldn’t bear to let go of his full five-star account. Hence, he could only try to find another way out.
Suddenly, Xiao Yu had a brilliant idea. Every time after he finished playing, he would delete the game. And when he played the game again the next day, he could download it again. Wouldn’t that solve the problem?
Yan Jin’s internet speed was really fast – downloading a game would only take a few minutes, so it was not too much trouble.
After coming up with a solution, Xiao Yu instantly relaxed.
The original plan to catch up during the holiday was thoroughly screwed. Seeing how today was the last day of the holiday, Xiao Yu’s road to becoming the best hero was endless and distant.
He had no choice but to hurry on and catch up regardless of how far he could get.
Nannan had mentioned that he would be back the day after tomorrow, so before that time came, Xiao Yu could focus on his game without any distractions. That did not mean that after Nannan came back, he would not have time to play the game. However, the drawing for the exhibition display could only be done with Nannan’s assistance. Xiao Yu found it embarrassing to make someone else do his job while he was playing a game.
Plus, there were no drafts or incomplete drawings this time, only pure inspiration. Even Xiao Yu himself could not be sure whether he could express himself clearly, and he couldn’t ask Nannan to personally go look at the Four Seasons Manor.
Just the thought meant that they were in for a rough ride this time. There was no way that Xiao Yu could play his game at ease with this situation occupying his mind.
That night, Xiao Yu heard the commotion when Yan Jin came back, reluctantly closed the game, and hit the uninstall button.
