Chapter 34
That day, after finishing his meeting in the afternoon, Arnold returned to the living room as usual.
In the past, whenever he returned to the living room, Fu Yue would get up, greet him with a smile, and say, "General, you’re here," welcoming him solemnly.
But he recently noticed that his little pet was acting a bit differently.
For example, he purposely walked heavier steps, but even when he reached Fu Yue’s side, she was still completely focused on the projection.
"Ahem…" Arnold tried to cough a few times.
Only then did Fu Yue seem to notice the person next to her and shifted her gaze to Arnold.
You’re here.
Picking up a fry, she smiled and patted the seat next to her, "General, sit down quickly!" Then she continued to watch the contents of the projection.
Actually, since a few days ago when they went out to eat, Fu Yue found out that she was supposed to die. After that, she started to think, "Well, since I’ve already died once, why not be more casual in what I say and do."
And as she spent more time working here, she gradually understood the working environment and her role.
So now, Fu Yue, who was once a new employee, transformed into the boss’s only designated personal assistant.
In this place where there is no competition, she found everything to be peaceful. But without competition, it also means there is no room for improvement.
Oh, sometimes she could only sigh and say: being unbeatable can be so lonely.
Now, she glanced at the projection again and noticed that her cushion was still not in place. She turned her head, puzzled look at Arnold, who was still standing in place. Could it be that the boss wanted to watch TV standing up today?
Arnold, "…" Well, let this good employee come and rescue the boss’s mind.
Fu Yue grabbed Arnold’s hand and led him to sit on the sofa, "General, come and take a break."
Although she said that, when Arnold actually sat down, Fu Yue immediately sat right between his legs’ gap, and then comfortably lay down on her boss. After adjusting to her favorite position, she lay down contentedly.
Ah, a human chair is indeed comfortable. The sofa cushion is cozy, but it’s inconvenient for her to reach for snacks on the table.
At this moment, surrounded by Fu Yue’s sweet words and gentle scent, rubbing against the pet’s soft fur, Arnold didn’t see any harm in it. So he earnestly watched the video playing on the 3D projection TV with Fu Yue.
However, the TV was not showing the news and boring political and economic content that Arnold usually watched.
It’s not a movie, but a TV show, and it’s a TV show by the Blue Star people.
Truly unbelievable.
Even though she had watched funny videos from other planets before, there were still some cultural differences sometimes, and it was rare for her to find something suitable to watch.
Wanting to watch some romance movies was like searching for a needle in a haystack for Fu Yue; she had almost given up.
Although she didn’t know who the kind person was, someone had set up a channel specifically for Blue Star people’s TV shows in Kurds. Fu Yue sincerely appreciated this unknown philanthropist.
But people are always very greedy. Fu Yue, who originally just wanted to watch, now had some small thoughts.
"General, wouldn’t it be even better if this TV show could be improved…" Fu Yue whispered to Arnold as she took a sip of cola.
"These TV shows have already been transformed from their original 2D form to lifelike 3D images by the best 3D restoration experts. He has hired some of the best technicians from Star Domain to work on this, and if it doesn’t work out, he might need to consider hiring people from other Star Domains ruled by the Krud people."
It’s not that these restoration experts are not good; on the contrary, they are just too skilled.
Turning 2D videos into 3D instantly broadened the perspective of TV dramas, making flat images appear three-dimensional. Some things inevitably get restored by restoration experts.
For example, since being in 3D, you can often see a black microphone used for on-site sound recording in the upper left corner of the video, showcasing its presence.
There are even large fans, spotlights, and cameramen shooting from a distance on the ground in a diligent manner. It can instantly pull people back from the romantic love story to the reality of the filming set.
However, don’t think that removing these external objects from the shots will fix everything.
In scenes where these objects are not present, you can still notice a poorly-made cardboard heavenly palace in the distance, swaying in the wind and even missing some limbs.
The tree the female lead is holding onto is completely made of plastic. Even the awkward height difference between the male and female leads, requiring the female lead to half squat to act together, is vividly restored.
"General, look at this scene now. It’s the crucial moment where the female lead is being harassed by thugs in the alley, and the male lead is about to come to her rescue!" Fu Yue excitedly points at the screen, "But see these wires, they completely reveal that the male lead is not skilled in light movements…" Arnold calmly analyzes, "However, considering the setting of this series is in the Republic of Hua Country period, the male lead shouldn’t be expected to have those kinds of skills."
This really exposed a gap in Fu Yue’s knowledge.
And after Arnold’s explanation, she instantly understood. She noticed the exaggerated and outrageous movements when the male lead fights the thugs.
"But…" even so, Fu Yue tried to find a reason, "Defeating the enemy like this can make one feel excited."
Yes, it would arouse the viewers’ girlish hearts. If the enemy hadn’t been kicked away by the male lead, if the male lead hadn’t acted so deadly.
"Are you feeling excited too?" Without the option to cheat with 1086, Arnold had to find the answer himself.
"Hmm…" Fu Yue still voted in favor, "there’s still a bit of something…"
She looked at the heroine in the drama, who had been crying in the arms of the male lead for about half a minute, feeling a bit unsure. So she added, "Besides this, there are many modern dramas with various ways of heroically saving the beauty."
Arnold looked at his cute pet in his arms, expressionless as he rubbed her head and said, "I understand."
Fu Yue, "??? What do you understand?"
Fu Yue couldn’t figure it out after thinking for a few seconds, so she brushed off the question and continued eating Colonel’s chicken nuggets while watching the TV series.
Learning from the lessons of their past date. Arnold felt that the reason for his previous failure was not understanding the other person – in this case, Fu Yue’s likes and dislikes.
This time, Arnold tried to discover Fu Yue’s preferences by putting the collected information into a 3D projection.
So far, he has successfully obtained the correct information.
He told Carter about this matter during a video call.
However, the current Carter was clearly not paying attention to him. He was deeply absorbed in his own world.
With a sweet smile on his face, he proudly started boasting, "My last date with Minli was very successful! I managed to get a kiss from her, oh no, I should say a peck."
Arnold ruthlessly exposed him, "It was just a peck on the cheek," and casually mentioned, "I’ve had a similar experience too."
"Hmph, what you had with Fu Yue was just her unconscious behavior after drinking. Besides, you also forgot about it the next day due to the effects of alcohol. What kind of experience is that?"
After a moment of silence, Arnold solemnly said, "This time, I will not fail."
Seeing the serious Arnold, Carter, amidst his boasting, offered a suggestion, "This success is based on my recently developed strategy of wearing a cloak."
This is a common way used in TV shows to attract females. The trick is to subtly change the temperature of the environment to make the other person feel cold, then offer your way of keeping warm to move the female emotionally. But for us Krud people, we need to feel the cold at least below minus two hundred degrees to feel it. This temperature exceeds the limit that Blue Star people’s bodies can bear.
"But Blue Star people may not know this. At least Minli didn’t question me when I made this move, but warmly extended her arm to me." Remembering something, Carter swiped on his own screen, "This is the video I recorded at that time, you can take a look."
From his words, it was clear that Carter was proud of this.
"Hmm." After successfully receiving the information, Arnold went offline to prepare for their second date.
Until the end of the video call, Peidi couldn’t find a suitable opportunity to join in the conversation among the three participants.
This can’t go on like this!
So he took out the form that Blue Star people had applied for, added "Urgent Processing" on it again, and sent it out.
After finishing this, he then opened the video sent by Carter. Peidi, who had expected to see a heartwarming scene, fell into silence.
The scene in front of him, by the actions witnessed, seemed like a Blue Star people’s pet attacking Carter no matter how you explained it.
Peidi was very confused, is this what they call love in legends?
