MTL - Hello, How Long Has This Been Going On?-Chapter 28

Waking up from the hangover, Tao Zhi felt dizzy in a daze.

The chaotic dream of last night was still circling in my mind, and the beeping sound of an electric drill came from somewhere next door, making me dizzy.

Tao Zhiyue opened his eyes, lay on the bed and stared at the ceiling blankly, feeling at a loss as if he didn't know what year it was.

He recalled for a long time before he remembered what happened last night.

He first took a taxi from the game show to the company, discussed the game with Mr. Guo and others passionately for a while, and then went to have a barbecue with his colleagues...

In the frenzied atmosphere of beer and barbecue, he seems to have drank a lot of wine, but he has no memory of what happened after the drink, and his memory stays at the moment when he picked up the glass and drank it down.

Tao Zhi felt a little regretful, he seldom drank like this, the last time he drank to pieces was when he graduated from university several years ago, his roommate at that time teased him for a long time, he asked himself what he did after drinking, but No one would tell him.

So up to now, Tao Zhiyue doesn't know what will happen to him after drinking.

Lying under the quilt depressed for a while, Tao Zhi mustered up the courage to reach for the cell phone next to the pillow.

Anyway, there is no contact information of his colleagues. Before going to work in the company, no one will laugh at him remotely... right?

Tao Zhiyue picked up the phone tremblingly, but found that the phone was turned off due to no power, and a large hollow battery was displayed on the screen.

…what was he doing on his phone yesterday? How can there be no electricity?

Tao Zhiyue had no choice but to get up, charge his phone, and then go to the bathroom and wash up briefly.

When he came back, the phone had turned on automatically, Tao Zhiyue glanced at it casually while biting the bread, and almost dropped his jaw in shock.

Why are there so many pp message prompts on the lock screen? !

He put down the bread in shock, picked up the phone, and looked more and more bewildered.

[Orange Jam: I'm Lin Jiajia, from the art group, remember to make a note. ]

[Marmalade: Brother Tao, howling. ]

[Old Guo: / Clasping fists]

[Old Guo: Have a good rest today! ]

[I must not be bald: drink together next time, hehe. ]

[I can't be bald: Brother Tao, I didn't expect you to have this side! ]

[Shimmer: Xiao Tao, hello. ]

[Shimmer has become your friend, let's start chatting! ]

[Cuckoo has become your friend, let's start chatting! ]

…

Tao Zhiyue froze.

If everyone hadn't been talking about brother Tao and Xiao Tao, Tao Zhiyue would have thought that he had taken someone else's phone by mistake.

How could he suddenly add so many colleagues' PP friends?

Tao Zhiyue put on a mask of pain, and slowly entered the unlock code, reluctantly facing this unfamiliar scene.

He opened the app and read it nervously.

He added at least a dozen friends of his colleagues yesterday, and now there are still seven or eight failed friend applications lying in the "new friends".

He even joined the company's pp group, and now the news in it is 99+. Fortunately, he has the habit of entering the group and setting do not disturb.

After finally flipping through the unread messages full of red dots, there is nothing too exciting. The most exaggerated thing is that Wang Heng said excitedly that he had never thought he had this side, and Tao Zhiyue heaved a sigh of relief.

Swipe down with your finger, and the conversation bar with HR just came into view.

[HR: Voice call ended]

Tao Zhiyue's pupils trembled, and he suspected that he was hallucinating.

Trembling, he clicked on the dialog box, and then saw the very simple system prompt on the bottom line.

[Call Duration 539:18]

There is also a cute phone icon next to it.

Tao Zhiyue:! ! !

He let go of his hand abruptly, and the phone fell to the table.

He must be dreaming, and it is a nonsensical nightmare, just wait until he wakes up.

Tao Zhiyue returned to the bed in a nonchalant manner, kicked off the slippers, plopped down, pulled the quilt over his head, and closed his eyes.

A few minutes later, the phone rang a crisp message notification tone.

Tao Zhiyue sneaked out his eyes from under the quilt and aimed at the table.

The phone maintained a difficult upright posture, the screen lit up, and a new pp message popped up.

It's over, it's not a dream.

After drinking, he made a phone call with his crush for 539 minutes and 18 seconds, and it seemed that he didn't hang up until the phone ran out of power and turned off.

And Tao Zhiyue didn't have any impression of it, and didn't know what he said at all.

At the same time, the messages from the impossibly bald Wang Heng circulated crazily in his mind: Brother Tao, I didn't expect you to have this side! I didn't expect you to have this side! This side!

So what side did he show to HR...

Tao Zhi felt that this would probably be the most social death in his life.

Paralyzed on the bed and collapsed for at least twenty minutes, Tao Zhiyue regained a little courage to face reality.

In the worst case, he would abandon his account and run away, and register another pp account, and he could start a new life.

The phone rang again, and Tao Zhiyue picked it up while comforting himself.

Both are messages from HR.

[HR: Good morning ^-^]

[HR: Are you asleep again? ]

It looks like business as usual.

...Maybe the recording of this voice call is a system failure?

Tao Zhi took a deep breath, stretched out his stiff fingers, and quickly poked out a reply.

[Tao: Good morning. ]

HR replied immediately.

[HR: Did you sleep well yesterday? Did you wake up with a headache today? ]

Disillusioned.

It seems that it is not a system failure, HR knows that he drank yesterday.

Tao: Did I call you yesterday?

Tao: Am I drunk and crazy?

Tao: Sorry, I didn't mean to.

Tao: Can you pretend that nothing happened, please QAQ

Tao Zhiyue typed repeatedly for a long time, and when he pressed the delete key, his fingers became numb, but he didn't dare to send any message.

HR seemed to have noticed his entanglement, and was the first to bring up what happened last night.

[HR: I called you last night, do you remember? ]

It was HR who took the initiative to call him?

Tao Zhiyue felt that his image could still be salvaged.

[Tao: I don’t remember ＿(:з”∠)＿]

HR quickly sent a brief explanation.

[HR: It's okay, we chatted casually, and then accidentally fell asleep, so I forgot to hang up in time. ]

[HR: Maomao giggles.jpg]

Tao Zhi felt himself alive again.

[Tao: I drank too much yesterday, sorry, didn't I talk nonsense, did I? ]

[Tao: If I offend you, I'm sorry first. ]

[HR: No. ]

[HR: Don't be sorry. ]

[HR: But drinking is harmful to the body, it is better to drink less in the future ^-^]

Tao Zhiyue was finally able to take off the pain mask, he let out a long breath and expressed his gratitude from the bottom of his heart.

[Tao: Thank you! ]

[Tao: Did you come to me yesterday because you were in trouble? I may not have helped you then, if you still need help now, you can tell me. ]

[Tao: I will try my best. ]

HR seemed to think for a while before answering.

[HR: There was something that bothered me yesterday, but Dr. Tao has helped me solve it. ]

Tao Zhi was taken aback.

[Tao: Really? I have no impression...]

[HR: It's okay, as long as I remember. ]

[HR: It's great to meet Dr. Tao. ]

Seeing HR's sincere words, the long-lost guilt came to my heart again.

Tao Zhiyue suddenly felt very sorry for him, he shouldn't have been with the other party for so long with this purely teasing name, and still let the other party call him a doctor by default.

[Tao: Well, I’m really not a doctor…]

[Tao: There is no Seventh Psychiatric Hospital in Jinbei City, and there is no Director Tao. This forum ID, and my reply to you at that time, are actually online memes. But my last name is Tao. ]

[Tao: Sorry. ]

Tao Zhiyue was ready to be accused, and couldn't help closing his eyes.

Open it again, only to see the other party reply calmly.

[HR: It's okay, don't tell me you're sorry. ]

[HR: So what does this stalk mean? ]

[HR: Star Eyes.jpg]

Tao Zhiyue was surprised at first, and then fell into a subtle entanglement. He felt that it was inappropriate to speak directly, so he could only speak euphemistically.

[Tao: It’s not easy to explain, why don’t you search for this sentence on the Internet: Hello, how long has this situation been going on? ]

[Tao: Then you will know what it means...]

After a while, HR sent a reply.

[HR: I found a Tanmei novel, what is Danmei? ]

[pottery:…]

[Tao: Forget it, stop searching, forget everything you saw just now. ]

[Tao: It’s probably because it’s weird to ridicule others. ]

[Tao: I didn’t mean to say that about you, I really thought you were fishing QAQ]

[HR: So it is. ]

[HR: But so many people replied to my post, the only one who is willing to believe me in the end is Dr. Tao. ]

[HR: If Dr. Tao is really a doctor, I will not be the only lucky patient. ]

Tao Zhiyue's fingers trembled, and a thin blush quickly appeared on his cheeks.

He typed the words a little stutteringly.

[Tao: Why do you still call me Doctor Tao...]

[HR: To me, you are a doctor^-^]

The feeling of blushing and heartbeat from the night before yesterday came back again, and Tao Zhi stared blankly at this simple and warm smiling face.

Obviously there is no gorgeous rhetoric, but what this person said always makes him feel elated.

[HR: Besides, no one in life should call you that. ]

[Tao: ...No. ]

[HR: Then this is my exclusive title. ]

[HR: Little Bear Goes Around.gif]

Tao Zhi tried his best to keep his head full of daydreams, trying not to distract every word HR said.

[Tao: Good. ]

[Tao: No matter where you need help in the future, if I can help, you can come to me. ]

[Tao: Except chasing girls... because I have no experience. ]

He quietly added the last sentence, with jealousy that only he could detect.

[HR:! ]

[HR: I forgot to tell you that day, the person I like is not a girl. ]

[HR: It's a boy. ]

[HR: I will try my best to catch him. ]

Tao Zhi was stunned, and before he had time to react, he saw a new message from him.

[HR: Doctor Tao, have you noticed that I am different. ]

Seeing what he said, Tao Zhiyue flipped through subconsciously, and then clicked on his profile page from his avatar.

The page was refreshed in an instant, and the old-fashioned scenery in his eyes disappeared, and HR's profile picture turned into a beautiful bunch of cartoon flowers.

The painting style of the bouquet is very cute, with gorgeous pink, purple, yellow and white colors, soft petals, and crystal dew.

It was the bunch of hedgehogs quietly placed at the door of the brown bear hut in the dead of night on Animal Island.

[HR: I changed to a new avatar. ]

[HR: This is a flower given to me by someone I like. ]

The author has something to say: Huo Ran: Decisively go straight!
