send me home with your dopamine

Xiaolan looked at the computer screen and heard a crashing sound outside the door.

She had known that Roland had returned, but she never left the room.

Opening the drawer, there were a lot of snacks inside. She tore open the package of beef jerky, threw a few into her mouth, and clicked the "Continue Game" option with her mouse again.

"Why don't you come out and say a word?!" Fang Xiaoling pushed open the door and angrily turned off the power strip.

"What..." Xiaolan took off her headphones, "I haven't saved the file yet."

"You can't hear the loud noise in the living room, right? Don't you know your mother came back just now?"

"So what? Even if you keep her as a person, you can't keep her heart." Xiaolan stretched her waist, "I would say you were just messing around. You were trying to trick her into staying longer." After a few days, what’s the result? Is it self-defeating?”

"Who did it? You heard it, right?" Fang Xiaoling was a little embarrassed, "She left because there was something urgent in the real world, otherwise she wouldn't have left after a few words with me."

"Sister Xiaoling, do you have any special feelings for my mother?" Xiaolan looked her up and down, "How old are you and haven't found a boyfriend yet? Even if my mother returns to the virtual world, then I must be bringing Yu Mengying and I with Yu Ren. In the future, we will be a family of four, will you still get involved?"

"I..." Fang Xiaoling was speechless for a moment. If she thought about it carefully, it was really like that. No matter how good her relationship with her sister was, she could not restrict her freedom. When her sister returned to the virtual world in the future, she would have her own life.

Just like the rest of the squad.

At this moment, the doorbell rang again. Fang Xiaoling ran to open the door and saw everyone carrying gifts and wishing them happy New Year.

"Happy Chinese New Year, sister Xiaoling!" Li Mengling took off her sunglasses and went up to give her a hug, "Chenyu and I got off the plane in the morning. If Aunt Xiaoyu's shop hadn't been too busy, we would have been here at noon!"

"It's so unreasonable of you to blame the blame as soon as you arrive." Li Xiaoyu walked into the room, "Chenyu, quickly bring my gift in."

Wang Chenyu held a fish tank with half a tank of water in it, "Aunt Xiaoyu, you are so tormenting, my arms are sore."

"The grown man is doing some work. I didn't let Yu Ren move it. That's to give you a chance to show off, you know?" Li Xiaoyu said with a smile, "Second niece, look at these koi carp. How about it? If you find it troublesome to keep pets, why don't you just keep a few goldfish?
ah! Why is this coffee table broken? "

"Ah...I accidentally broke it. Everyone, come in quickly." Fang Xiaoling took Li Mengli's handbag, "Why are you bringing wine again? There are several rows of wine in the wine cabinet at home, and no one usually drinks."

"Sister Luo Lan specially ordered that everyone should get drunk before resting during the Chinese New Year."

"Did sister contact you?"

"Yes, they contacted us from the real world a week ago. Let us not tell you yet. We want to give you a surprise." Li Mengli walked into the room, "Isn't Sister Luo Lan back yet?"

Fang Xiaoling looked at Yu Ren at the door and changed the subject: "Long time no see, what have you been busy with recently?"

"You'll know when you see it." Yu Ren mysteriously handed a box to Fang Xiaoling.

"What is this? It's heavy, for me?" Fang Xiaoling wanted to open the box, but Yu Ren stopped her, "Let's look at it when we are alone."

"Why are you being so mysterious? Come into the house." Fang Xiaoling put the box on the surface of the closet and said frankly, "Yu Ren, actually, my sister came back just now, but there is something urgent in the real world, so..."

"There should be a breakthrough in environmental optimization." Yu Ren was not surprised. "She stayed at my place yesterday and told me a lot about real-world things."

"What? She came back yesterday?" Fang Xiaoling was stunned for a moment, "Sure enough, men are more important than sisters. No wonder she came here with New Year's goods. I thought she went to buy them specially, but it turned out that she went to visit you first!"

"I went shopping with her in the morning, and then I went to the airport to pick up my eldest brother and Mengling. Didn't she tell you?"

"No!" Fang Xiaoling said angrily, "She quarreled with me when she came back, and then went back after not chatting for a few words." "A quarrel?" Yu Ren hung his coat on the hanger, "That shouldn't be the case. Yesterday she was always I’m talking about you, and I’m saying that I will go on vacation with you when I return to the virtual world, and I won’t even take you with me.”

"She...really said that?"

"Why did I lie to you?" Yu Ren walked out of the door again, brought in a box and put it in the living room, "Everyone, stop being lazy and get moving!"

"We don't need to do anything. Without superpowers, it doesn't mean that we don't have high technology." Li Mengling sat on the sofa and opened the zipper of her school bag. "Xiao Zhi, clean up the floor and decorate this place."

"Good master." Xiaozhi flew out of his schoolbag and said on the roof of the shed, "Happy New Year to sister Xiaoling!"

"Happy Chinese New Year Xiaozhi! Where have you been hiding? I almost forgot about you!" Fang Xiaoling walked over and said, "Don't be busy yet. Come down and let me take a good look. Is the paint peeling off?"

"Why is the paint peeling off? It sounds like I abused it." Li Mengling clicked on her phone, "Just because it's back in the 21st century doesn't mean its material has returned to the level of this era.

I bought a new coffee table online. "

Yu Ren opened the box and took out the melon seeds, nuts and sugar. "If I had known Xiaozhi was here, I wouldn't have bought these paper-cuts and Spring Festival couplets."

"Don't you have to eat takeout today?!" Xiaolan ran out of the room, "I remember there were big crabs on New Year's Eve last year. Are they available this year?"

"Of course, I'm going to cook right now. The ingredients are all fresh, and there are a lot of them in the box over there." Yu Ren picked up the box and walked to the kitchen, "Brother, go and bring another box of ingredients."

"Here we come." Wang Chenyu went to lift the box, "Xiaolan has grown taller again and lost weight."

"Brother! Please don't interfere this time. The food you cooked last year was too terrible!" Xiaolan complained, "I still feel nauseous when I think about it now."

"Oops? It's not like I used to cook delicious food for you?"

"You no longer have the ability to create. To be honest, your cooking skills are really not that good."

"Are you disgusted?" Yu Ren said proudly, "My cooking skills have improved a lot this year."

"We have a chef at home, so I don't need to do anything." Wang Chenyu put the box on the kitchen floor, "Chef Yu, I'll leave this to you. Don't forget the eighteen dishes, as soon as possible."

"Why don't you come in and help wash the vegetables?"

"Stop making trouble, what time is it?" Li Xiaoyu rolled up his sleeves and walked into the kitchen, "Everyone comes in to help, and we have to make dumplings.

Xiaolan is coming too! You are 15 years old, you can't know nothing, and you won't be able to get married when you grow up. "

"What are you afraid of? If I lie down on the street, someone will take me home." Xiaolan joked nonchalantly, "Anyway, my boyfriend can take care of my food and drink and buy me a PS5. Don't worry." I didn’t ask for anything.”

"Sister Xiaoling, haven't you bought a PS5 for Xiaolan yet? I'll order one for her online now."

"No!" Fang Xiaoling snatched Li Mengling's phone, "She has already played with a computer from morning to night, don't spoil her too much."

"Sister Meng Ling, you don't have to buy it for me. I'm pretty good at playing computer games. There are a lot of stand-alone games." Xiaolan said nonchalantly, "Sister Xiaoling is too busy now. If she doesn't care about me, she will have nothing to do. ”

"You're itchy, aren't you?"

"Aunt Xiaoyu, I'm here to make dumplings!" Xiaolan quickly ran into the kitchen.
