Chapter 77
Cheng Wei rubbed his hands together and said.
“We’ll go over there after work. We can also let him take us to the copy.”
“Have you seen him before?”
Xue Jiayue was curious about what the “kill the world” in the game looked like in reality.
“Is he a student? Or working? Is he older or younger than us?”
“Working seems to be doing a work for a game and we are older than seven or eight years old.”
Cheng Wei briefly said the situation of Song Yikun, smiled, and continued.
“You’ll see him later; you should ask this to him. I don’t know much about him.”
Xue Jiayue gave a “hmm” as she became more and more curious about Song Yikun and was looking forward to this afternoon.
Working all morning made the time pass quickly and was already noon, Xue Jiayue and Cheng Wei drove to New Imperial City.
Xue Jiayue and Cheng Wei arrived a few minutes first. They sat in the box for a while before the waiter led Song Yikun into the box.
When Xue Jiayue looked at the man who came in behind the waiter wearing a casual outfit with his tall, straight body, made Xue Jiayue’s whole person frozen.
Brother…..
Looking at Song Yikun who walked in from outside, Xue Jiayue was like seeing her brother in green army uniform walking towards her, she almost couldn’t help but scream out.
The same handsome face, sword-like eyebrows, high nose, lightly pursed thin lips, firm chin, he looked the same as her brother.
Xue Jiayue held back the word “brother” that almost came out of her mouth and looked at the approaching Song Yikun with unblinking eyes, a voice in her heart shouting.
‘It was too similar, too similar, not only the looks are very similar, even the walking posture is very similar!’
For a moment, Xue Jiayue felt that he was her brother if she did not know clearly that she transmigrated into a book and she was not in her previous world she was going to think that her brother also followed her in crossing over the book.
But that’s impossible, Xue Jiayue quickly denied the speculation. Her brother was an excellent soldier and had been a soldier in X city before. The year before she crossed over, her brother was ordered to perform a very important task however there was an accident on the way back. The plane he took crashed, and none of the people on the plane were spared. So far, he has not been found.
“Come on, let me introduce you. This is Song Yikun also known as ‘kill the world’ in the game.”
When Song Yikun arrived, Cheng Wei stood up from his chair and introduced him to Xue Jiayue, and then introduced Xue Jiayue to Song Yikun.
“Brother Kun, this is Jiayue, the ‘Jiajia’ in the game. Today, thanks to your help we were able to retrieve her designs.”
“Hello, Brother Kun.”
Xue Jiayue retrieved her thoughts, steadied herself, and smiled as she extended her hand to Song Yikun.
“Hello, Jiajia.”
Song Yikun also said hello to Xue Jiayue and reached out to hold Xue Jiayue’s hand.
Two people say hello to each other, even if they know each other.
“Today, I thank brother Kun for helping me find the design drawings.”
Those were the painstaking efforts of Xue Jiayue so she was really happy and grateful to Song Yikun for retrieving them back.
Song Yikun showed her a smile as he bluntly said.
“It’s just a little effort. You don’t have to be so polite.”
Cheng Wei said to Xue Jiayue.
“Brother Kun has always been so straightforward.”
Xue Jiayue smiled. She always had a strange feeling Song Yikun was her brother. She couldn’t help asking.
“Has brother Kun ever been a soldier before?”
The walking posture of a soldier was different from that of ordinary people. Soldiers have great momentum at first sight. Their temperament was trained over the years and has the spirit that ordinary people don’t have.
Song Yikun smiled at that.
“How can you tell? I did serve as a soldier.”
“I can tell from the way you walk, the aura coming out of your body is different from others.”
The main thing was that he was very similar to her brother, the two people’s actions were so consistent, only people who have gone through special training would be like that so Xue Jiayue guessed he had been a soldier like her brother.
“Where did you become a soldier?”
Xue Jiayue asked again, with a little bit of expectation in her heart that even she could not tell, as her hand holding the teacup tightened slightly.
Song Yikun did not know what was in her mind and said directly.
“I was a soldier in X City.”
With a clang, the teacup Xue Jiayue was carrying fell on the dining table and tea poured out from it.
Song Yikun and Cheng Wei looked at her when they heard the sound. Xue Jiayue suddenly panics and hurriedly said.
“Sorry, sorry, I slipped my hand just now.”
She said, while taking paper towels to dry the tea on the table, Cheng Wei also rushed to help and also took a paper towel to wipe the table, only Song Yikun sat without helping them with an unreadable expression on his face.
Fortunately, not much water poured out of the teacup, so Xue Jiayue and Cheng Wei only took a few paper towels to wipe clean the table.
Xue Jiayue raised her head again and looked at Song Yikun sitting in front of her. She seemed to hesitate for a moment before she found other topics to talk to Song Yikun as she wanted to know more about him and said.
“Brother Kun has been a soldier in X city for several years?”
“Eight years.”
Song Yikun recalled his time as a soldier in the army. It was a good memory. Even if he was not in the army now, he would still miss that period. He smiled and said.
“I went to the army when I was a sophomore.”
Sophomore?!
Xue Jiayue was surprised and couldn’t help looking at Song Yikun. His brother also went to the army when he was a sophomore. He also liked the life of the army very much and to realize his childhood dream, he just went and never came back.
“It turns out that brother Kun is still a college soldier, that’s awesome.”
Cheng Wei used to want to be a soldier, but his elders didn’t agree, and his eyesight didn’t meet the standard. In the end, naturally, he didn’t go, but he always admired those soldiers in green uniforms.
Song Yikun was very modest.
“I’m not that awesome. It’s just happened that my major in University was just short of people at that time, so I went and applied.”
“That’s also very impressive. I also wanted to go to the military before but couldn’t.”
Cheng Wei was very good at holding people up, he quickly picked up the teacup and smiled.
“There’s no food and wine yet but I will use the tea to toast Brother Kun first, you are my role model.”
Men have men’s pride and admiration.
It’s always pleasant to be praised and was no different for Song Yikun, he also picked up the teacup and then toast each teacup and drank the tea as if it was wine.
Xue Jiayue who was observing all of these saw this Song Yikun and his brother as like two peas in the pond. It makes her suspicion blow like the waves in the sea.
The more she talked with Song Yikun and the more she knew, the more she felt he was like her brother. The experience of the two people was just the same. If this was not the world in the book, and Song Yikun’s surname was surnamed not Song but surnamed Xue and Song Yikun was only the original passerby in the book then she would think he was her brother.
Until dinner, Xue Jiayue couldn’t calm down. Facing the delicious food on the table, she didn’t the appetite to eat. All she thought was, was Song Yikun her brother? Was Song Yikun a transmigrator like her?
The world was in a book, an era when crossing over was common. She crosses over and her brother was likely not dead and just like her, he transmigrated instead.
Xue Jiayue’s eyes were slightly wet. She couldn’t help looking up at Song Yikun next to her. She wanted to reconfirm and was looking for some clues from him that were very similar to her brother, to judge whether Song Yikun was her brother or not.
Song Yikun was very keen and had already perceived Xue Jiayue looking over, so he met her gaze with a faint smile.
Facing Song Yikun’s calm eyes, Xue Jiayue panicked for a moment. For fear that would be found, she quickly found something to say.
“What do you think of the taste of these dishes? I don’t know what you like to eat, so I casually ordered a few dishes.”
“The food tastes good, when I was a soldier in the army before or was on a mission outside, I only ate dry food, compressed cookies, or whatever I have, and sometimes it was all the same.”
Song Yikun was not so particular about food, and his requirements were very low, as long as they can fill the stomach.
When Cheng Wei heard him talk about dry food, he remembered that he had an experience of eating military food. He continued the conversation enthusiastically.
“Isn’t there a kind of convenient rice now? Just open the bag and there is a package of rice and some vegetables in it. Add some water to the bag, you can heat it yourself, the rice and vegetables then you can eat them. I ate it last time and it tastes good.”
Song Yikun nodded and said.
“There is that kind of rice, but you’ll get used to it and. So meal made by a proper chef is more delicious.”
“That’s for sure.”
Cheng Wei also followed.
“Convenient store rice is no longer delicious, certainly not as good as the dishes made by the chef of the new imperial city, such as this eight-treasure duck, which is not convenient store brought rice.”
Eating and chatting casually would bring people closer.
Xue Jiayue once again thanked Song Yikun for his help.
“If it wasn’t for you, I wouldn’t have been able to get my designs back, those were my heart and soul.”
Xue Jiayue’s heart was palpitating until now, if those designs were lost, she didn’t know how long she would be sad.
Song Yikun thought for a moment and kindly reminded her.
“I think you’d better check who uses your computer. This time she can delete your design drawing. Next time, you won’t know what else she could do. You’d better be careful.”
When Xue Jiayue first learned that someone had deleted her design, she had her suspicions and now that Song Yikun reminded her of this, she took the matter even more seriously.
“Thank you for the reminder, I will go back and check.”
She will not let go of the person who deliberately harmed her!
“If you need help, I can help you. You can come to me.”
Song Yikun has great skills in computers. Since he came across this matter, he was also willing to help.
Xue Jiayue thanked him for his kindness and said.
“If there is a need, I won’t be polite with you.”
After saying that, he toasted Song Yikun with a cup of tea instead of wine.
After having their fill, Song Yikun had to say goodbye to Xue Jiayue and Cheng Wei, before leaving the three of them agreed that would play the game together again for a three-person team set.
Xue Jiayue and Cheng Wei sent him to the car before leaving.
Returning to X.W. studio, Xue Jiayue had no intention to do anything. She was still thinking about Song Yikun. She wanted to know whether Song Yikun was her brother or not.
