“I…” Gu Jinzhi had a complex expression. “Is there something wrong with how I sounded?”
How was Mo Yu supposed to say it to his face?
He didn’t believe anyone’s moaning in bed could sound that bad.
It wasn’t like a kindergarten class learning Pinyin!
It’s fine. It must just be that the current atmosphere is too awkward, so Boss Gu can’t let loose.
He would take the lead. If he made a fool of himself first, Gu Jinzhi wouldn’t feel so constrained. Besides, no matter how embarrassing he was, it couldn’t beat Gu Jinzhi’s performance.
Mo Yu was touched by his own spirit of sacrifice.
Although Boss Gu didn’t seem to quite understand, he still submissively swapped positions with him.
He almost completely copied Mo Yu’s previous movements, pressing down on him without missing a single detail, looking quite serious.
Only by lying here could Mo Yu clearly see that the “mirror” above could almost fully reflect both of their figures.
Gu Jinzhi’s broad-shouldered, narrow waisted frame hovered above him. Whether it was his arms or his waistline, both were packed with power, he almost looked like he was filming a commercial for his dress shirt or suit trousers.
“You need to get a bit closer.”
Mo Yu reached out and hooked his arms around Gu Jinzhi’s neck, while simultaneously getting distracted thinking about whether he should give the gym downstairs another chance…
He was actually not as strong as Gu Jinzhi.
“Alright, you can move now.”
After Mo Yu finished speaking, Gu Jinzhi still didn’t move for a long time.
He could only feel the muscles beneath his palms tensing up tightly, radiating a surge of heat.
Mo Yu looked at him in confusion.
The two locked eyes once again.
Gu Jinzhi’s ears turned red again. He almost wanted to ask how he was supposed to move, but quickly realized how embarrassing a question like that would be.
“…Don’t look at me.”
Gu Jinzhi’s warm palm suddenly covered Mo Yu’s eyes.
Mo Yu raised an eyebrow slightly. Then, he felt Boss Gu gently press down against him.
Mo Yu was stunned for a moment. So gentle. Does this count as moving?
Whatever, whatever. Mo Yu prepared to start his performance.
He warmed up his voice with a couple of trial sounds, just getting into the groove and wanting to add a bit of emotion.
Unexpectedly, in the next second, Gu Jinzhi pushed him away.
“Ah? What’s wrong?”
Mo Yu was startled and looked left and right. Did someone come in?
No, no one.
“You, you…” Gu Jinzhi’s face was actually completely red.
“I get it now. You should be the one moaning.”
Mo Yu: “Ah?”
“You’re not going to try again?”
Gu Jinzhi turned his back, looking as if he couldn’t bear to look at him. “No. I can’t out moan you.”
Mo Yu: ?
This isn’t a competition! As a young entrepreneur of the new era, how can you be so complacent and not strive for progress!
Mo Yu deeply regretted it, he had truly misjudged him.
Besides, he didn’t have much confidence in performing from this position either.
“Are you really not going to try again?”
“No.”
Practice had to continue.
Boss Gu dragged his feet for a long time before finally returning to the bed, even insisting on warning him.
“Don’t start moaning yet!”
It’s not like I wanted to moan in the first place!
Mo Yu swallowed his pride and endured it. It wasn’t until dinner time that he suddenly forgave Gu Jinzhi again.
Boss Gu intended to order room service directly.
Mo Yu glanced at it; the cheapest item on the entire menu was a plate of Golden Fried Rice for 169 yuan.
It’s literally just egg fried rice.
He peacefully put the menu down.
“Too expensive.”
Boss Gu had already picked up another work call. Hearing this, he raised an eyebrow in confusion and stuffed the menu back into his arms.
“It’s fine. My treat, order whatever you want.”
Mo Yu: “!”
For the first time, he found Boss Gu’s voice incredibly pleasant to hear.
Mo Yu quickly picked up the in room telephone.
“Hello, how may I assist you today?”
“Hello, I’d like an order of Escargots de Bourgogne, a Salmon Tartare with Avocado Mousse, a Pan Seared Steak with Red Wine Reduction, and a Braised Lamb with Pea Puree. Also, a Chocolate Lava Cake with Vanilla Ice Cream.”
Before long, a waiter wearing white gloves pushed a service cart in to set up their meal.
Mo Yu sat happily by the window, eating the dessert after the main course, and the main course after the appetizer, tears of happiness practically welling up.
So this is what it feels like to have money without having to work.
No wonder everyone wants to be taken care of.
Boss Gu didn’t seem to be a picky eater. When Mo Yu placed the food he ordered for him in front of him, he just ate it directly.
Because during dinner, Gu Jinzhi would occasionally pause to handle work matters.
Even on a repeating day, his mind was still clearly focused on work.
Mo Yu pricked up his ears to listen, relieved that he didn’t hear any news regarding his manuscript.
With a ding, he received a text message from Fu Li on his phone.
【Strange, I feel like I dreamed about playing games with you.】
Mo Yu froze.
【And then?】
【I don’t remember what happened after.】
Mo Yu didn’t know whether he should breathe a sigh of relief or not. He didn’t reply again, but Fu Li sent another message over.
【Are you coming over to the bar tonight?】
Mo Yu subconsciously looked up at Gu Jinzhi beside him.
Can’t go at all.
He still had to fake making love with his client boss.
When the time reached eight o’clock in the evening, Mo Yu, who was lying on the bed, predictably lost consciousness in a single second.
He had originally made up his mind to meet up with Gu Jinzhi as quickly as possible, but he hadn’t expected to run headfirst right into a robot.
“A69. Time’s up.”
The robot’s smile was the same as before, its non-reflective artificial eyes staring straight at him.
At this moment, two robots stood in front of him, and Mo Yu subconsciously took a step back.
However, the two AIs each stepped forward, like wild beasts hunting him down. For the first time, they reached out to grab him and even wanted to put a blindfold on him.
“What are you doing? I’m not…”
“Don’t worry, I will help you.
Relax. You don’t need to do anything, you just need to trust me and enjoy it.”
Mo Yu: ???
What the hell…
The plot was different from before.
Mo Yu’s heart sank.
That’s right, what was reset previously was only the task.
How could they have assumed the situation would still be exactly the same as last time? But Mo Yu never expected these AIs could be this perverted either.
Looking at this stance, were they planning to help push them together?
Did they really need this much participation? How were they supposed to fake it then!
While soothing his emotions, the AI forcefully led him forward, practically lifting him up by the end.
Mo Yu couldn’t contend with them for the time being, so he could only follow them down via the elevator.
Soon, Mo Yu heard Gu Jinzhi’s voice again.
“Get off!” He sounded much angrier than him.
“Ultron! You pride yourself on being an advanced lifeform, so what are you doing right now?”
Ultron: “What are you saying? I have always existed to serve humanity, haven’t I?”
“What kind of human counts as something forced and controlled by you! What about my free will? Did you eat it?”
The more Mo Yu listened, the deeper his heart sank.
Does Gu Jinzhi really have acting skills this good? Ad-libbing so well that he even knows the AI’s name?
The answer, of course, was impossible.
He had lost his memory again.
But why? Clearly, only a few minutes had passed this time?
Mo Yu’s heart beat nervously. Suddenly, he remembered the corruption level prompt after their previous failure. Since only the task was reset, the 5% corruption level was naturally inherited as well.
So Gu Jinzhi loses his memory as soon as he enters the stage now…?
This was way too unfair.
“Do you really think you can trap me!”
The current situation caught them completely off guard. Before Mo Yu could think of a solution, Gu Jinzhi suddenly went ballistic on the other side.
A violent crashing sound rang out, it seemed like a robot had fallen over ahead.
Taking advantage of the chaos, Mo Yu hastily pushed away the two Ultrons beside him and tore off his blindfold.
The entire layout of this floor had changed. Before, it was clearly empty, with almost no furnishings.
This time, however, it looked like an operating room, set up with various instruments. What was even more terrifying was that several massive screens were mounted above, precisely recording baffling data alongside real time feeds.
And Gu Jinzhi was fixed onto a hospital bed as if he were about to be dissected, surrounded by three steel and iron robots.
A glaring overhead light shone down on him, leaving every subtle movement of his with nowhere to hide under the monitors.
Mo Yu’s first thought was to curse in his mind. Fuck.
The task definitely can’t be done here.
It had to be said that memory lacking Gu Jinzhi was genuinely fierce.
After a dazzling display of martial arts, he single handedly knocked down all three robots, flipped over several computer chassis, and left through the door on the far right.
Mo Yu didn’t think twice and hurriedly chased after him.
Fortunately, agility might always be the short board for humanoid robots.
Mo Yu shook off the remaining two robots, quickly caught up with Gu Jinzhi, and desperately grabbed him just as he was planning to leave the building again.
“Let go!”
The memory lacking Gu Jinzhi had an extremely fierce look in his eyes. “Don’t think I won’t kill you.”
Mo Yu swallowed nervously, but naturally didn’t let go. “Listen to me…”
Gu Jinzhi let out a sneer. “What, turned into a pet after being modified, and now you’ve learned to protect your master?”
“No, can you wake up and think about who you are?”
“Of course I know who I am, but do you know, A69?”
Mo Yu: Who is discussing philosophical questions right now aaah!
“Gu Jinzhi! Do you still remember your company? Do you remember the game you’re about to launch? Do you remember that in less than a month you have to submit it for review, yet you’re still torturing an innocent writer to revise the female ghost’s storyline?!”
Mo Yu delivered the last part with exceptionally rich emotion, and a momentary look of confusion indeed appeared in Gu Jinzhi’s eyes.
“But that storyline is very important…”
Seeing that he was on the verge of remembering, Mo Yu hastily dragged him forward, ran into an empty room, pushed him inside, and immediately double-locked the door.
“Hurry!”
“Hurry with what…”
“Complete the task!”
Mo Yu was already starting to take off his clothes. It was estimated that the AI named Ultron would be able to breach this door again in no time.
They didn’t have much time alone, and this room clearly had surveillance as well or rather, the entire building was under Ultron’s constant surveillance. So the best way was to quickly complete the task of faking it right now.
Gu Jinzhi pressed down on him. “Wait, our plan has changed…”
“What?”
To fake intimacy, the two were currently standing extremely close, almost face to face. Even after rehearsing for a day, Gu Jinzhi was still clearly unadapted to it.
He lowered his gaze, his expression complex as he struggled for a long time without knowing how to explain, his face even turning red.
“They… they seemed to have identified me as… the receiving side just now.”
Mo Yu froze for a moment. Just as he was about to ask why, he suddenly realized that while he was blindfolded, the reason Gu Jinzhi had been so angry was probably because the AI wanted to “prep” him.
