Family (Part 3)
The dungeon was extremely dangerous, so the two of them made preparations in advance. If anything happened to them, they would leave Qiao Yuan and all their property to their good friend Lu Lan. After all, their parents had passed away a few years ago, and they had no other relatives.
They also hope that after Lu Lan adopts Qiao Yuan, he will not mention them again.
After all, if Qiao Yuan downplays their existence, he won't miss or look for them in the future.
Qiao Buyan and Sang Miao's preparations finally came in handy. The two failed their mission in a copy. Although they did not die, they were trapped in that copy and could not return to the real world.
This world is not stable and ghosts appear from time to time, so you need to be extremely careful when living here.
As the days passed, their memories were gradually tampered with. Although Qiao Yuan's existence was disappearing from their memories bit by bit, Qiao Buyan and Sang Miao still felt that something was missing.
Because of this, the two never take photos together.
Until they saw Qiao Yuan appear, even though the only memory of the other person's appearance as a baby was in their minds, their intuition still told Qiao Buyan and Sang Miao that the other person was their child Qiao Yuan.
But after the joy faded, worry quickly came to his mind, and Sang Miao immediately asked Qiao Yuan why he was here.
"And..." Qiao Buyan's gaze fell on the three people behind Qiao Yuan: "They are..."
He smiled at Song Yanchi and Fei in a friendly manner, and then his hesitant gaze fell on Sheng Guiye. After all, among the three, Sheng Guiye's outfit was the most eye-catching, making it difficult for him to ignore it.
Especially this outfit and the nervousness revealed in Sheng Guiye's eyes and eyebrows, made him feel familiar.
He was sure he had never met the other person before.
After searching through the memories in his mind, Qiao Buyan quickly remembered where this inexplicable familiarity with Sheng Guiye came from -
When he met his parents, Sang Miao's parents were still alive.
At that time, Qiao Buyan was like a peacock spreading its tail. Even though he knew that Sang's parents had watched him grow up and were very confident in him, the one in ten thousand chance of being rejected made Qiao Buyan extremely nervous when facing his father-in-law and mother-in-law, and he even forgot all the words he had prepared.
Qiao Buyan: “…”
Could it really be what he thought?
However, after Qiao Yuan started to tell the story of what happened to him, Qiao Buyan's attention was temporarily diverted away from Sheng Guiye.
Qiao Yuan: "They are people I met in this instance. I came here specifically to meet you..."
Sang was stunned for a moment, then quickly asked, "A copy?"
"You got sucked into the game?"
Qiao Buyan and Sang Miao were confused at first, wondering how Qiao Yuan appeared here. When they heard that Qiao Yuan was involved in the game, their expressions immediately became tense.
Although Qiao Yuan downplayed what happened in the copy, Qiao Buyan and Sang Miao, as people who had experienced the copy themselves, naturally knew the dangers involved, not to mention that Qiao Yuan had to face God in the end before finally ending the game.
Therefore, Qiao Buyan and Sang Miao did not even have time to be surprised that their daughter had become a god, nor did they have time to be happy that the game that had been bothering them had ended at this moment.
Qiao Buyan looked at Qiao Yuan with a look of heartache: "You must have suffered a lot in the game."
Seeing Qiao Yuan nod, Song Yanchi and Fei felt very complicated. After all, looking at Qiao Yuan's performance in the game, it was unclear which side suffered more.
Sang Miao: "Were you injured before?"
Qiao Yuan shook her head. She wasn’t lying. After all, she usually hurt other people or ghosts in the game.
Realizing that Qiao Buyan and Sang Miao were still struggling with this matter, Qiao Yuan quickly started to talk about what happened in the real world.
When Qiao Yuan talked about the death of Lu Lan and Lu Zhi, Qiao Buyan and Sang Miao showed sadness on their faces. After all, they and Lu Lan were good friends since childhood and witnessed each other's growth. They also knew about Lu Lan's children. It was said that they were twins, but one of them was taken away by the other's biological father and died with him.
The other one was Lu Zhi. They only remembered that he was about the same age as Qiao Yuan, but loved to laugh. When Qiao Yuan was a few months old, they also took Qiao Yuan to visit Lu Lan and Lu Zhi.
Whenever the two children were put together, they got along very well and often communicated in baby language that the three adults present could not understand. Because of this, Qiao Buyan and Lu Lan always thought that the two children would be able to get along well when they grew up.
Unexpectedly...
After obtaining the power of Narcissus, Qiao Yuan also thought about resurrecting Lu Lan and Lu Zhi.
Although it had been anticipated that resurrecting the dead would be much more difficult than killing them, no matter how Qiao Yuan tried in the space in the past, he was still a little short of success.
However, when Qiao Yuan was searching for Qiao Buyan and Sang Miao in various worlds, he found two people who looked very similar to Lu Lan and Lu Zhi in other worlds, but she and Gu Yan did not exist in their lives.
After hearing what Qiao Yuan said, Qiao Buyan and Sang Miao felt a little comforted: "It would be great if we could see Lu Lan and Lu Zhi again in the future."
"But I didn't expect your dream was to act. Has it come true now?"
Qiao Yuan: "Although it took some twists and turns, it has now come true."
Qiao Buyan and Sang Miao looked at Qiao Yuan with relief, but at the same time, they felt a little disappointed in their hearts.
At this moment, they became more and more aware of how much had happened in the more than 20 years that they had missed with Qiao Yuan.
Not only did they not know about the death of their best friend and his child, they also missed Qiao Yuan's growth, so much so that they could only hear about his dreams and Qiao Yuan's current career from Qiao Yuan's mouth.
Sang Miao: "It's good to be a star, are you busy with work?"
"Besides acting, do you do anything else? Isn't it tiring to be in front of the camera all the time..."
Qiao Yuan also realized that behind Sang Miao's questions was his curiosity about her career.
She wanted to search on her phone and show it to her parents, but she quickly realized that the phone she brought with her couldn't be used in this world.
The situations of Qiao Buyan and Sang Miao are special. They were trapped here in a near-death state after failing in their mission. They have been relying on this world to survive invisibly.
It would take time to bring the two back to their original world.
Just as Qiao Yuan was thinking about how to give a detailed answer, Sheng Guiye's voice had already sounded: "Here are some clips and screenshots of Qiao Yuan, as well as her peripherals..."
Qiao Yuan:?
Song Yanchi & Fei: ???
The eyes of the three people fell on the bag in Sheng Guiye's hand at the same time. Even though Sheng Guiye did not explain this time, Song Yanchi and Fei had already realized what Sheng Guiye had taken.
Under the astonished gazes of the other three, Sheng Guiye respectfully opened the bag.
While styling, Sheng Guiye suddenly realized and asked his secretary to urgently go to the house where he often lived to get some treasures. The reason why he took these out was also very simple. Although Qiao Yuan said that he didn't need those things, thinking of the concern of Qiao Buyan and Qiao Miao for Qiao Yuan in the previous copy, Sheng Guiye thought that the two should be very interested in Qiao Yuan's recent situation.
It was just that due to limited time, he only had time to prepare part of it.
Sang Miao took it with shining eyes: "Great, let me see..."
Although Qiao Buyan knew that Sheng Guiye's action was very much like showing courtesy, he was also curious about what Qiao Yuan looked like in front of the camera, so he followed Sang Miao and watched.
Qiao Yuan, Song Yanchi and Fei also joined in, wanting to see what kind of peripherals Sheng Guiye had prepared.
Just as Sheng Guiye said, he did prepare a lot of screenshots of Qiao Yuan in film and television dramas, and marked which film or television drama they were from, as well as the clips played by Qiao Yuan, and compiled them into a book.
Qiao Yuan previously played mostly minor roles, and only recently did he have a representative work, so this booklet is not very thick.
However, this was not something Sheng Guiye prepared on the spur of the moment. He had already made it before, but he printed it out temporarily because he wanted to show it to Qiao Buyan and Sang Miao.
Sang Miao and Qiao Buyan spend a long time reading each page.
It seems as if I have already seen all the roles played by Qiao Yuan through these screenshots.
Song Yanchi's attention was on the other peripherals prepared by Sheng Guiye.
His eyes were stern: "You actually have this autographed photo..."
It was a signed photo of Qiao Yuan that the company had released earlier. In it, Qiao Yuan was wearing headphones and seemed to be listening to music seriously with his eyes closed.
Although Joe Yuan was in a black and red position at that time, he still had fans, so these limited edition signed photos were also sold out.
After knowing the existence of the autographed photo, Song Yanchi embarked on a slow journey of searching. He also kept waiting in Qiao Yuan's super topic and autographed photo software, and even for the first time, he secretly contacted everyone inquiries in the identity of the fan group leader.
Although he received many autographed photos, Song Yanchi was the only one missing.
He had originally wondered whether he would have the chance to see this autographed photo in this lifetime, but he did not expect that although he saw it now, it was in Sheng Guiye's hands.
Qiao Yuan was also shocked. After all, this happened almost immediately after her debut. At that time, the company had already made up its mind to let her continue on the path of variety shows, so Qiao Yuan never released this kind of peripheral products again. If Sheng Guiye hadn't brought it out now, she would have almost forgotten about it.
Qiao Buyan and Sang Miao were unaware of the twists and turns involved, but it seemed as if through these surrounding circumstances they were closer to Qiao Yuan and saw different people under the camera.
After reading it, Sang Miao thanked him and tried hard to return the things to Sheng Guiye. However, Sheng Guiye stopped him. After all, he brought these peripherals to give to Sang Miao and Qiao Buyan in the hope that they could get to know Qiao Yuan better.
Sang Miao: "How can this be so embarrassing..."
Sheng Guiye: "This was originally prepared for you. It will be more meaningful when it reaches you."
Sang Miao's attention had been on Qiao Yuan before, but now when she heard Sheng Guiye speak, her gaze finally fell on him.
She was also an experienced person, so she naturally noticed the meaning in Sheng Guiye's eyes when he looked at Qiao Yuan.
However, although he had only spent a short time with the person in front of him, Sang Miao's first impression of Sheng Guiye was already good and now it is even better.
