Chapter 231 What is Junior Uncle doing now?
Although the physical body outside will fall into a sleep state when entering the virtual space, this does not mean that the physical body is actually asleep!
People who enter virtual spaces will still be in a highly active mental state. Virtual spaces cannot truly replace sleep; people still need rest.
So Zhang Chulan was very surprised when he saw that his junior uncle, who had been busy all day, had no intention of resting and was instead preparing to activate the Extraordinary Bracelet.
"Uh." Zhang Lingyu paused for a moment, then casually said, "I think it's still quite early. If I go to sleep so early, I'm afraid it will affect my biological clock. I'm going to go into the virtual space to cultivate for a few more hours before going to sleep."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Chulan gave Zhang Lingyu a thumbs up and praised, "Junior Uncle is really amazing. As expected of you, you can think of cultivation anytime, anywhere."
Even Wang, who was standing next to him, said admiringly before falling asleep, "As expected of a disciple of the Celestial Master's Mansion, I really can't go on anymore and need to get a good night's sleep."
After saying that, he fell asleep immediately, leaving Zhang Lingyu standing there awkwardly with a smile.
Zhang Lingyu glanced around and, seeing that no one was paying attention to him, activated his virtual space and lay down on the bed.
……
In virtual space.
Zhang Lingyu nervously opened the door to his house in his personal home. Although he had sent Xia He a message yesterday that he was returning to Na Du Tong while escorting Liu San back, Xia He said she would wait for him in the virtual space.
Zhang Lingyu hadn't expected there to be so many people to arrest! As a result, he had been working since midnight the previous night and hadn't stopped until now. He wasn't even sure if Xia He was still there.
When he pushed open the door, a figure came into view from behind.
A figure wearing a white short-sleeved shirt is leaning against the bed, constantly tapping the virtual screen in front of her with her finger.
The person on the bed was Xia He, and Zhang Lingyu almost didn't recognize her at first glance.
After the virtual space was revamped, Xia He's makeup and her usual clothes disappeared, replaced by a very ordinary white short-sleeved shirt and shorts.
More importantly, even Xia He's hair has turned black!
At this moment, Xia He looked completely different from her previous arrogant self. With her bare face, she looked like a friendly older sister next door, completely lacking her previous alluring demeanor. She exuded a gentle and virtuous temperament.
If it weren't for the fact that Xia He's short-sleeved shirt was still stretched high, he really wouldn't have been able to find any resemblance between the person in front of him and Xia He.
However, as soon as Xia He spoke, Zhang Lingyu felt a sense of familiarity. After seeing Zhang Lingyu enter the room, Xia He turned off the virtual light screen in front of her and pounced on Zhang Lingyu, pinning him down.
"Why are you so late! Do you know how long I've been waiting for you!"
"Haha, I've been busy, there are just too many people to catch, so I came over as soon as I had some free time." Zhang Lingyu, wanting to change the subject, casually praised Xia He, "Xia He, you look so different from before, even your hair color is different. Did you dye your hair before? I almost didn't recognize you."
"Of course it's dyed. Who has pink hair?" Xia He replied speechlessly.
Xia He then looked up at Zhang Lingyu and asked with a sly look in her eyes, "Then do you think it's better now or before?"
Zhang Lingyu immediately broke out in a cold sweat, and said with a forced laugh, "It's all good, it's all good!"
Just as Xia He was about to press further, she noticed a hint of relief in Zhang Lingyu's eyes. She released him and looked at Zhang Lingyu with a dangerous gaze, asking him a question.
“Lingyu, let me ask you, before you logged into the virtual space, were you worried about what I would look like without makeup? Were you afraid that I would become a haggard old woman?”
"No...no! Absolutely not."
Although Zhang Lingyu immediately shook his head in rebuttal, the panic in his eyes could not be concealed.
Xia He angrily got up from him and sat down to the side, then kicked Zhang Lingyu off the bed.
"You damned old Taoist! If I didn't look good without makeup, were you going to kick me to the curb?! You heartless bastard!"
Enraged, Xia He stood up and began stomping on Zhang Lingyu's face repeatedly with a jade bamboo stick.
After giving Zhang Lingyu the reward, Xia He angrily chose to log off.
"You stay here by yourself! I'm logging off."
After saying that, he disappeared from Zhang Lingyu's personal home.
……
Day two.
Zhang Chulan, who had slept all night, finally woke up. As he climbed out of bed, he saw that the spot that was originally Zhang Lingyu's was empty. Looking at the fact that it was only seven o'clock, he muttered to himself in curiosity.
"Hey, is Junior Uncle up yet? Is he up so early?"
Suddenly, Wang Ye, who was sleeping nearby, spoke up.
“Master Lingyu got up and left shortly after you fell asleep yesterday.”
"Holy crap!" Startled by the sudden noise, Zhang Chulan turned to look at Wang Ye, whose eyelids were still closed. "Old Wang, are you asleep or awake?"
"I'm half asleep, you know?"
Zhang Chulan, who did not understand Wang Ye's realm, shook his head, recalling Wang Ye's words just now.
"Why is this junior uncle up instead of resting? What's he going to do?"
Wang Ye's lazy voice came again: "I don't know about this little path. Maybe Master Lingyu went to exercise."
What Wang didn't tell Zhang Chulan was that when Zhang Lingyu left the virtual space yesterday, her face was clearly flustered, indicating that something had happened.
But Zhang Lingyu himself didn't say anything, and he acted furtively, clearly not wanting to tell anyone. Wang Ye wouldn't just say anything to anyone either.
"Do you exercise? That sounds like Junior Uncle's habit. Junior Uncle is really diligent."
After muttering an admiring comment to Zhang Lingyu, Zhang Chulan got up and left the room.
……
After leaving the lounge, Zhang Chulan sent a message to Zhang Lingyu, but the other party did not reply.
It wasn't until nearly noon that Zhang Lingyu arrived at the company, looking exhausted.
"Junior Uncle, where did you go yesterday? Why didn't you rest in the lounge?"
"Um... I don't feel comfortable staying in the company's lounge, so I went back to my apartment to rest yesterday."
"Junior Uncle, why didn't you change your clothes when you got home? Hey, why are your clothes torn? They look like they were ripped. Did you damage them when you were arresting the criminal yesterday?"
"Yes...it was torn apart by the criminal."
Zhang Chulan looked at Zhang Lingyu, whose eyes were still tired even though she had "rested" all night, and offered some words of comfort.
"Oh dear, Junior Uncle, if you still feel tired, why don't you go back and rest for a while? Junior Uncle, did you secretly cultivate yesterday? I see you have dark circles under your eyes. You need to take care of your health and balance work and rest."
