Sitting in the Bacon Restaurant on the first floor, the monkey ate so happily that it was like a storm.
Chu Yun was horrified as he watched from the sidelines. He felt that it was the influx of refugees who had not eaten for days and nights. He quickly handed a glass of water to the monkey who was rushing to eat, just because he was afraid that he would choke.
"Little monkey, can you eat slowly? No one will compete with you."
Even Lin Ruoxi couldn't see it and spoke with a frown.
Due to the captain's face, Monkey finally became more civilized.
After finishing two large bowls of risotto with soy sauce, the monkey, who was a big eater, patted his bulging belly and leaned comfortably on the chair in the bacon shop. Chu Yun saw that he had finally finished eating, and then asked: "Monkey
, what happened to you, why did you suddenly make such a fuss?"
"Master, you don't know something. My mother forced me to read, so I escaped."
Miss Lin rolled her eyes and said, "Forcing you to read is not asking you to die. Why do you need to run away from home in such a big way?"
"Captain, I'm not naturally good at reading. When I see abc or something like that in a book, I feel sleepy. My mother forced me to study, and she even made a rule that I wasn't allowed to touch the computer for a year.
All my pocket money was also deducted,
I couldn't bear the cram school every day and night, so I had no choice but to come here to seek refuge with you." The monkey lowered his head and kept looking at Chu Yun from time to time. He now knew who had the final say in Hailing Mansion, and hoped that
This master of his can speak well in front of the captain.
Chu Yun was smoking silently on the side, seeming to be thinking about something.
"What do you think we should do?" Lin Ruoxi tilted her head and looked at Chu Yun.
Chu Yun then spoke: "I'm talking about monkey, you have to know that this society is very realistic. Only a very small number of people can succeed in e-sports. In the final analysis, they use their youth as a bargaining chip to gamble. If you win the gamble, you will have both fame and fortune."
Come on, if you lose the bet, you will have to live in a muddleheaded way for the rest of your life. Even so, you still have to persist?"
"Master, I've said it before, all my dreams in this life are bets on e-sports."
Chu Yun's eyes were shining as he stared at the monkey.
He couldn't help but sigh, as expected, what kind of master brings out what kind of apprentice.
"Monkey, you just ran out like this, your family still doesn't know about it, right?"
"I left a note, saying that I was going to join my friends, and I would not go back until I made a difference..." Monkey spoke more and more quietly, and in the end he just looked at Chu Yun's expression secretly: "Master, you have to take him in."
As for me, I don’t have anywhere else to go but you.”
Chu Yun took a puff of cigarette, smiled bitterly, and could only dig into his pocket to find his mobile phone: "What's the number?"
The monkey was stunned: "What number?"
"Your mother's cell phone."
The monkey's head shook like a rattle, as if Chu Yun asked for the number to call the courier company to pack and return the goods.
"Okay, I don't want you to tell me. Give me your number and I'll tell your mother."
Monkey has always been shrewd. As soon as he heard Chu Yun's words, he could tell that he wanted to take him in, so he quickly reported his number to Chu Yun.
Chu Yun dialed the number given by Monkey. The call rang three times and the call was connected.
"Hello, who's there?" The voice on the other end of the phone sounded like a very intellectual female voice, but there was a hint of tiredness that couldn't be hidden in the voice.
Chu Yun was stunned for a moment, then remembered his responsibilities and said: "I am Monkey... no, Hou Shaofeng's friend."
The woman on the other side of the phone paused for a moment, then asked, "Is Shao Feng with you now?"
"Well, I'm afraid he didn't say where he was going when he came out, so I'll give you a call to say he's safe."
"I'm sorry, Shao Feng came to disturb you at home..."
"No, no, monkey... no, although Shao Feng is young, he is very smart and lovable. We all like him very much."
Monkey's mother didn't speak for a while. Fortunately, Chu Yun was patient. He waited for a long time before hearing her voice. He hesitated and didn't know how to speak: "I... have something to say. I don't know whether to ask or not.
Well, if the question is inappropriate, please don’t take it personally, after all, we as parents are also thinking about the well-being of our children."
Chu Yun smiled and said, "Just tell me."
"Are you the master Shao Feng mentioned?"
"I, Chu Yun, should be the person you mentioned."
"So, you rely on playing games as a career, right? I don't know much about this aspect..."
"That's pretty much it, yes."
"Can I ask you about how much you can earn from playing games in a month? Also, is the market stable? I heard that playing games is a popular activity among young people."
Chu Yun sighed inwardly, as expected of a parent, the question he asked went straight to the center of the conflict. He glanced at the monkey sitting next to him, and raised his ears, as if he was trying to hear the voice on the phone clearly.
.
Chu Yun flicked his head and continued: "I can't hide this from you. The game market is for youth. Just like other sports competitions, participating in the Olympics and winning the championship will naturally bring fame and fortune.
Come on, even if you can still serve as a coach for the national team when you get old, you will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of your life. But there are still a lot of people starving to death, and no one can guarantee that if you practice hard, you can win the championship."
There was silence on the other end of the phone. Chu Yun spoke so straightforwardly that even Lin Ruoxi frowned. The monkey simply put his face on the table in despair and covered his ears with his head.
Finally, Chu Yun heard the voice of Monkey's mother on the phone again. She sighed: "Thank you for telling me this so frankly. I don't talk to Shao Feng much, but every time he brings up the game, he brings up your friends.
Sometimes, I always look very happy..."
Chu Yun didn't know how to respond, so he could only listen quietly to what she continued.
But the other party suddenly asked an irrelevant question: "Can you tell me, does my Shao Feng have a future in this field?"
"What?" Chu Yun couldn't understand. He was thinking that he would listen to the monkey mother pouring out her sorrows, but the other party suddenly made such a turn.
"He is very attentive and hard-working. He has high talent. If it were him, he would probably achieve something."
"Really..." The other party's voice gradually became quieter, and Chu Yun seemed to hear a suppressed sob, but he held back the sound.
"I have a request, can I ask of you?"
"You said."
"My Shao Feng is still young and will inevitably have to make many detours. I hope you can help him and remind him that no matter whether he succeeds in the future or not, home is still home. I hope he... can come home more often.
, even if you fail...it doesn't matter."
Chu Yun nodded: "Okay, I will tell him."
"Thank you so much."
"It's okay. This is my phone number. Also, our address is Hailing Mansion, No. 666 Huayun Road, Qiunan City. Please contact us if you need anything."
The two exchanged pleasantries for a few more words, and Chu Yun hung up the phone.
The monkey's eyes were blankly waiting for him: "What did my mother say? Is she coming to take me back?"
Chu Yun felt strange. Judging from the dialogue, the monkey's mother was not an unreasonable person. Why did she make the monkey look like a frightened bird?
He shook his head: "No, your mother didn't say anything and just entrusted you to us. It seems she acquiesced."
"My mother? Really?" Monkey looked like he couldn't believe it.
Otherwise, what else? You have already run away from home. It is impossible to take you back by force and lock you up for the rest of your life, right?
Chu Yun rolled his eyes at the monkey, who sat down from the chair with a guilty conscience and waited for his resignation.
Chu Yun wanted to say something, but as soon as the words came to his mouth, he choked.
He took one look at the monkey's scorching gaze, which was so similar to his own back then that all his words turned into sighs.
"Monkey is a member of our team, and I would also like to ask a favor for him." Chu Yun turned to speak to Lin Ruoxi.
Lin Ruoxi looked at him for a while and nodded: "Little monkey, just find a room upstairs. Anyway, there are many vacancies and no one lives in it."
The monkey was overjoyed: "Then I live next to the master?"
Chu Yun smiled and nodded: "Go ahead and move your bags to the room and tidy them up."
Before Chu Yun finished speaking, the monkey ran away.
The two remaining people in the dining room couldn't help but look at each other with wry smiles.
