Lou Wei had no intention of seeing how ‘lovey-dovey’ the couple were. He turned around and stepped forward to Li Yunxiu’s tomb to pay a respectful bow. He was ready to leave the cemetery with Lou Xia. 

As they were leaving, the couple were tangled in a fight. At first, Zhou Yuan protected her head with her arms from being hit. But later on, she started to counter attack Lou Ke and all of an instant, their usual elegance temperament was nowhere in sight. They looked like a couple on the street biting onto each other’s necks.

However, Lou Xia’s happy mood was totally ruined.

Moreover, it is on her mother’s memorial day.

During the ride home, Lou Wei was driving in front while the girl with sharp facial features sat at the back passenger seat, leaning her head against the car’s window looking outside of the window. After getting inside the car, Lou Wei placed his phone on the phone holder at the dashboard. Thus, Wen Fan was able to see Lou Xia’s depressed face. 

Lou Xia, whose face resembled Lou Wei’s, was wearing a hard look. It made her appear serious, like a wild rose that was gentle yet fearless.

Wen Fan hesitated for a while before connecting himself to Lou Xia’s phone IP address.

Three seconds later…

Lou Xia, who was leaning against the window, daydreaming, suddenly heard knocking sounds coming from the phone that she held in her hand.

The sound was so real, as if someone was knocking on the door. 

She took out her phone and unlocked it with her fingerprint. 

The image that she saw on her phone screen made her blood freeze.

This is —

“Mom.” Lou Xia said with trembling voice.

The pangnon character on her phone turned into Li Yunxiu. Moreover, it took the appearance of Li Yunxiu when she was in her prime during her younger days. She was even more pretty compared to the picture that Lou Xia saw at home.

She looks a lot like Lou Xia, but her facial features were more gentle, full of tenderness and elegance of a Northern lady. 

Lou Xia was really drawn by her appearance.

Li Yunxiu waved at her from the screen. Her every move was filled with the elegance of that of a mature woman. All these were based on the information that Wen Fan gathered from the internet. A lot of the information was deleted from the internet and this is the output of all the previous video records and pictures of Li Yunxiu.

Perhaps Li Yunxiu’s avatar may not sound like the real person, however, her actions and temperament were almost the same. 

Lou Xia’s eyes turned red almost instantly when she stared at the image of her mother on the screen. She glanced at her in a daze as she lifted her hand to touch Li Yunxiu who was on the phone screen gently. At this instant, she finally found a vent to express how much she had missed her mother.   

This had always been Lou Xia’s biggest regret.

When Li Yunxiu passed away, Lou Wei was already in primary class. But she was just three years old, and her memory of her mother was vague. Regardless of how many photos she looked at, she simply couldn’t recall how her mother looked. That is the biggest regret in her life.

But today, she finally saw her in real-life.

Even though it’s just an avatar.

""

Lou Xia is no fool. When she recovered from the shock of seeing Li Yunxiu, she immediately knew who was behind this. She quickly lifted her gaze to stare at the phone held in place by the phone holder next to the driver’s seat. Sure enough, she saw Wen Fan floating in midair, staring at her.

“Thank you, Sis-In-Law.” Lou Xia’s original voice was a little hoarse, but now, it sounded even more hoarse.

Wen Fan waved at her and gave her a ‘hug’.

Lou Xia smiled instantly. 

At first, Lou Wei wasn’t aware of what was going on. After they reached home, he noticed that Lou Xia was still hanging her head low, playing with her phone. Her eyes never leave the phone screen even when she is getting down from the car. And that is the time when Lou Wei saw Li Yinxiu on the screen.

Lou Wei was shocked. He looked at Wen Fan and his lips curled to form a smile. 

He lifted his hand to touch Wen Fan.

    现在的天气已经入了春,头顶的光线也有了几分热度。空气中满是院内新开的樱花的香气,三人踏着草坪上的樱花进了别墅房门,连空气都好像惬意起来。

    温梵坐在投影的虚空中,哼着小调被娄危带着走。

    但就在这时,娄危的手机忽然响了。

    手机的震动连带着投影中的温梵都被震得来回晃荡,昏着脑袋坐在半空中。

It’s spring time now. The sun ray casted on top of the head is a little warm and the air in the garden is filled with the fragrance of peach blossoms. The three of them stepped on the fallen peach blossom on the grass and entered the villa. 

Wen Fan was floating in midair, humming a song as Lou Wei led him away.

But at this instant, Lou Wei’s phone suddenly rang.

The vibration from the phone caused Wen Fan, who is in projection mode to shake. He sat in mid-air, feeling dizzy.

He stood up dizzily and turned off the projector mode to go inside the phone screen so that Lou Wei could answer the phone.

The moment Lou Wei answered the phone, a familiar voice was heard.

It was Zhao Mengke’s voice, “Wei-ger! I didn’t mean to get so excited, but, but, I’m just simply too excited. It’s because, it’s because!!”

    ————

Lou Wei frowned, “Send me a message through WeChat.”

“No!” Zhao Mengke refused, “I must tell you this with my own mouth! Wei-ger, we’ve successfully developed the beta version of the game pod!”

 Lou Wei had no idea how he arrived at the office with Wen Fan. He could sense that his heartbeat was a lot faster.

He clenched onto his phone tightly and took a deep breath before he pushed the door of the designing department. 

The first thing he saw after entering the room was the game pod that was already placed in the middle of the lobby of the designing department.

The game pod was like a black color egg that was split into half, standing still on the ground. The head of the designing department opened the game pod in front of Lou Wei, exposing the reclining chair that was connected to a lot of other devices.

Because this is an early prototype of the game pod, they did not spend a lot of time dealing with the design of the interior of the game pod, especially doing proper cable management. However, the reclining chair for users to fall into deep sleep and the headset connector were designed with fine details. 

Lou Wei walked over and ran his hand along the silver reclining chair. His fingertips were slightly trembling. The employees in the room stood behind him, however, they did not notice anything strange about Lou Wei.  

The head of the designing department rubbed his palms anxiously, “President Lou, this is just the prototype. We’ve already concluded all the design stages and now, we are left with the trial run. The technician who will be doing the trial run is still on the way, he should be here shortly.”

The head of department was getting excited as he spoke. His face was blushing from excitement. Zhao Mengke was already jumping up and down in excitement. Ling Xiao who stood beside him was also feeling happy that he couldn’t stop smiling. 

The other employees who participated in the project felt the same as well.
