Genius Girlfriend - v4 Chapter 146
Jiang Yubai stared at Lin Zhixia for a few seconds, and saw that she took a step back unconsciously, her momentum was not lost at all: “Am I right?”
Jiang Yubai took the initiative to take the role of “Exploring the Universe”: “You are right, Captain Lin Zhixia.”
When he was a child, when Jiang Yubai played the role of “leader”, he always deliberately pretended to be a calm adult. Lin Zhixia thought he was serious and stupid, very funny.
When he really grows up, his appearance and personality have changed, and the words “Captain Lin Zhixia” again will give Lin Zhixia a whole new experience.
Lin Zhixia’s eyes became brighter. She asked him softly: “Are you free tonight?”
“There is a video conference tonight,” Jiang Yubai said, “Tomorrow…”
Before Jiang Yubai finished speaking, Lin Zhixia guessed what he meant, and sighed: “Tomorrow morning, I will teach undergraduates. In the afternoon, the laboratory will have to move equipment. I have to watch it by the side. Meeting with Luo Ying and Feng Yuan to discuss issues.”
Jiang Yubai walked up the steps, and the smooth glass door showed his and Lin Zhixia’s reflections. He stared at the shadows of the two close at hand, and said to himself: “I will pick you up from get off work and take you home. Stay with you for ten minutes.”
This is not an extraordinary love story.
But the true feeling he showed made Lin Zhixia’s heart beating. She immediately took his arm and coaxed him sincerely and sincerely: “That’s all right, I will go to your house for a few days.” She also drew a cake for him: “Next winter vacation, I have a one-month holiday, we can Travel around the world…”
Since Lin Zhixia has already learned to swim, she yearns for an island holiday. She discussed with Jiang Yubai, and the two decided to stay in the Maldives for a week during the winter vacation next year. They chatted and visited the office building. Two hours passed without knowing it, and the bright sky faded. Lin Zhixia glanced out the window and said, “I want to go home.”
Jiang Yubai will also participate in a business meeting.
Lin Zhixia knew he was busy. She suggested: “My brother gets off work at half past five. I will go home with him. You should go to the meeting first.”
Lin Zeqiu works at this Internet company. But he did not know Jiang Yubai’s connection with the company. If he knew, he might quit immediately and find another job as a programmer.
At 5:30 in the afternoon, Lin Zeqiu picked up his shoulder bag and left his work station. The phone in his pocket kept vibrating. He took out his mobile phone and saw that the caller was Lin Zhixia, so he pressed the answer button without hesitation.
On the phone, Lin Zhixia said to him: “Brother, are you off work? I visited the Quantum Technology Lab today and I am sitting in your company’s reception room. I want to drop by and go home with you… Jiang Yubai We have to drive us a ride.”
Lin Zeqiu had heard of that quantum technology laboratory. He is a member of Lin Zhixia’s team and learned a lot of internal news through emails and WeChat groups. He believes that the establishment of the Quantum Technology Laboratory relies on Jiang Yubai’s connection, which has facilitated multilateral cooperation. And Jiang Yubai himself has little to do with this Internet company. Jiang Yubai is just a simple rich three generations, with a relatively large network of contacts… nothing more.
Jiang Yubai wanted to send Lin Zhixia and Lin Zeqiu home, obviously he caught the opportunity to perform. As Lin Zhixia’s brother, Lin Zeqiu didn’t have much to say. He found his sister in the reception room. At that time, his sister was holding a cup of tea, lowered her head to eat a snack, and praised vaguely: “Little strawberry cake, so delicious…”
Jiang Yubai didn’t notice Lin Zeqiu. He raised his hand and wiped the cake residue on Lin Zhixia’s lips with his fingertips.
Lin Zeqiu frowned slightly. But he did not criticize Jiang Yubai’s approach. He has repeatedly pondered Jiang Yubai’s words and deeds, and he has already figured it out. Jiang Yubai often shows weakness to win Lin Zhixia’s favor, so as to successfully achieve some ulterior goals-this kid is simply unfathomable, Lin Zeqiuxin miss you.
Jiang Yubai got up, greeted him, and led their brothers and sisters to the parking lot. On the way, Jiang Yubai and Lin Zeqiu talked about new projects within the company and asked him what he thought of it. He became more and more surprised. How could Jiang Yubai know the performance appraisal model of their engineering department?
He couldn’t help asking: “Where did you hear so much news?”
Jiang Yubai replied: “My colleague told me.”
colleague?
Before Lin Zeqiu thought about it, a young man walked across from the parking lot. Wearing a loose T-shirt and jeans, he was still able to show off a strong and tall figure—he also had a superior appearance, a straight nose, and deep eyebrows. Compared with the lush and restrained in the middle school years, he can be said to be quite mature now.
The parking lot was empty and lonely, with dim light.
The man stopped and stared at Lin Zhixia and his group quietly. He seemed to have something to say, and he didn’t seem to want to say anything.
Before Lin Zeqiu could react, Lin Zhixia greeted the man: “Senior Nie Tianqing?”
Nie Tianqing was carrying a briefcase in his left hand and the car key in his right hand. He hesitated for a while before walking towards Lin Zhixia: “Do you remember me?”
of course.
Lin Zhixia remembered everyone who met her.
Twelve years ago, Lin Zhixia went to Jiang Yubai’s house as a guest for the first time and played a “bubble ball fight” with a group of children. Nie Tianqing was also there. Other children said that Nie Tianqing is a top student in the Provincial No. 1 Middle School with very good academic performance.
Later, Lin Zhixia was admitted to the Provincial No. 1 Middle School, and Nie Tianqing became her senior. However, the words she and Nie Tianqing said together do not exceed twenty sentences.
Jiang Yubai had a vague impression of the three words “Nie Tianqing”. Nie Tianqing stretched out a hand, and he subconsciously shook hands with Nie Tianqing-this scene is not like the reunion of seniors and younger brothers in the past, but rather like a meeting between Party A and Party B in a business negotiation.
Nie Tianqing took the initiative to speak: “I’m here for the autumn recruitment interview, how about you?”
Jiang Yubai briefly summarized: “We have cooperated with the university to build an emerging technology laboratory, and the business is still in its infancy.”
The information disclosed by Jiang Yubai can be found online. It is not the first time that the university where Lin Zhixia works has cooperated with a company. The regulations and procedures in all aspects are relatively mature. The first-hand news related to this is written by the administrative staff of the college.
Nie Tianqing couldn’t ask any valuable news. He exchanged greetings with Jiang Yubai and planned to take a step forward. Before leaving, his eyes turned to Lin Zhixia and nodded at her.
Lin Zhixia waved at him.
He raised his eyebrows and then smiled.
His figure drifted away.
Jiang Yubai stood there and stood still for a moment.
Jiang Yubai has read this year’s autumn recruitment brochure. The autumn recruitment interview dates for all positions are scheduled in mid-October, and it is still late September. In other words, Nie Tianqing did not come to this company for an interview, so he wanted For what? Why lie deliberately?
Jiang Yubai knew that Nie Tianqing was the senior of the Provincial No. 1 Middle School. After a short period of thinking, Jiang Yubai never remembered the intersection between him and Nie Tianqing. The “Bubble Ball Fight” twelve years ago has faded out of Jiang Yubai’s memory. He only remembers Lin Zhixia holding the bubble ball in his arms to save the whole team. As for the character and behavior of Nie Tianqing back then … is the past that is too far away to be verified.
Lin Zhixia’s voice interrupted Jiang Yubai’s thoughts: “What are you thinking about? What about Nie Tianqing?”
Jiang Yubai concealed: “Nothing.”
Lin Zhixia lowered her head and smiled: “If you don’t tell me, I can guess it.”
Before the words were over, Lin Zeqiu happened to pass in front of Lin Zhixia, and of course he heard Lin Zhixia’s words.
Lin Zeqiu put his hands in his jacket pockets tightly, and inserted a sentence at the right time: “Lin Zhixia was very smart when she was a child. Over the years, her brain has been tempered, and she will only get smarter. If you have something, don’t hide it from her. , The remedy is too late.”
Lin Zeqiu squarely threatened Jiang Yubai. Jiang Yubai was not only not angry, but also a little funny. He broke out a shocking anecdote: “I exchange diaries with Xia Xia every year. She knows all my secrets.”
This is true.
Lin Zhixia echoed: “Yes, Jiang Yubai and I have exchanged diaries for more than ten years. He will also take photos and clip them into the diary for me to read.”
Lin Zeqiu was defeated.
He has nothing to say.
He carried a briefcase across the body and slowly approached Jiang Yubai’s car.
Just like Lin Zeqiu’s driver, Jiang Yubai helped him open the door of the back seat, and naturally waited for him to get in the car-this made Lin Zeqiu a little bit useful.
However, as soon as Lin Zeqiu sat firmly, Jiang Yubai slapped the car door tightly. He held Lin Zhixia’s wrist and let Lin Zhixia sit in the position of the co-pilot.
Lin Zhixia turned her head and glanced at Lin Zeqiu in the back row: “Brother?”
Lin Zeqiu put his cheek in one hand.
Lin Zhixia called him again: “Brother?”
Lin Zeqiu turned a deaf ear.
For Lin Zhixia when she was a child, a series of “brothers, elders, and elder brothers” would erupt in the eight achievements. Now that Lin Zhixia has grown up, she has already had a variety of tactics. She said very calmly: “I want to inform you that you work in an Internet company. You must know better than me that the performance of small retail stores is better than that of non-online stores. I have discussed with my mother and asked her to take the Ancheng community My old house is sold, and the rest of the money will be handed to me. I will help her make financial investment…”
Lin Zeqiu finally answered: “Do you want your parents to retire?”
“Yes,” Lin Zhixia replied, “They worked so hard.”
Lin Zeqiu leaned back in his chair. He stretched his legs and sighed silently. He was born a few years earlier than Lin Zhixia. Before Lin Zhixia was sensible, he had seen how hard the adults in the family were.
He said to himself: “I agree with my parents that they should retire. I should have raised them a long time ago. I can’t bear to eat and use things. I can’t compare with the natives of the city.”
As soon as he said this, he realized that Jiang Yubai was still sitting in the car.
At this time, Jiang Yubai acted as the driver. He held the steering wheel and the car was running on the highway. He did not interrupt the conversation between Lin Zhixia and Lin Zeqiu’s siblings, just like a conscientious ordinary driver.
Lin Zeqiu folded his arms and glanced across Jiang Yubai’s profile.
Lin Zhixia was not aware of the subtle atmosphere, and was still talking: “Dad wants to learn Tai Chi, I enrolled him in a Tai Chi class, and he has classes in the gym in our community. Every Monday to Thursday…”
Lin Zeqiu suddenly reacted: “You have told your parents so much, why didn’t they tell me?”
Lin Zhixia explained: “I was not busy at work a few days ago. I got up early in the morning and chatted with my parents at home. You were not awake at that time. You didn’t talk much at the dinner table…”
Lin Zeqiu was in a complicated mood. In his family, all the responsibilities that should be borne by the elder brother were all carried by the younger sister.
What made Lin Zeqiu feel even worse was that early the next morning, Lin Zhixia packed up her suitcases, said hello to her parents, and moved to Jiang Yubai’s house for “temporary stay”.
When Lin Zeqiu sent Lin Zhixia out, Lin Zhixia repeatedly assured him: “Don’t worry, I will take care of myself.”
It was an autumn morning with fresh air, the pale morning mist enveloped the city at dawn, and the smell of sweet-scented osmanthus wafted everywhere. Jiang Yubai stood on the downstairs of the residential unit building with his hands in his pockets. He raised his head and looked at the sky with the same expression as in the past. Only one side face is very eye-catching. A line drawn from his forehead to the bridge of his nose, lips, and chin is perfect.
Lin Zhixia perceives sensitively that Jiang Yubai’s mentality is different from day to day-although his look and appearance have not changed.
She dragged the suitcase and ran towards him.
Lin Zeqiu called her from behind: “Hey, what are you in a hurry?”
Hey, a girl in her early twenties…
Seeing her boyfriend still so excited, it is really not stable enough, Lin Zeqiu thought.
Lin Zhixia didn’t care what Lin Zeqiu called her. She jumped in front of Jiang Yubai, stared at him for just a few seconds, and then asked, “What’s wrong with you?”
“In the past two days, the company has a lot of things,” Jiang Yubai explained patiently, “I may not have time…”
A pause.
He is still working on the wording.
Lin Zhixia guessed what he meant: “No time to get along with me?”
Jiang Yubai immediately denied: “No.”
Lin Zhixia is very considerate and penetrates his mind: “We are all grown up, we have to work, we have to take responsibility… You grow up very well, have a high emotional intelligence, and are especially good at dealing with others, but you don’t have to treat me. That way… I mean, you can talk straight to me, go straight to you, just like I am to you, no matter what happens, I will always be on your side.”
After speaking, Lin Zhixia hid the suitcase behind her.
Since Lin Zeqiu was still standing not far away like a stick, Lin Zhixia could not make any intimate actions towards Jiang Yubai. She stood up straight, and simply stated: “You should be busy with work, I won’t live in your house.”
Jiang Yubai did not expect that she would consider it so appropriately.
However, in the next second, he held Lin Zhixia’s wrist bone tightly as if grabbing relatives. Without blinking her eyes, she tried to speculate on his situation by observing his expression, but he smiled suddenly, and between this smile, Haitang and Qiugui were overshadowed.
“Don’t laugh,” Lin Zhixia was sober, “have you had breakfast? Go to my house for breakfast.”
Jiang Yubai said honestly: “I didn’t eat anything since I separated from you last night.”
“Did you not have dinner?”
“Yes it is.”
Lin Zhixia was a little serious: “No matter how busy I am, I have to eat.” Then he asked, “What kind of breakfast would you like to have?”
Jiang Yubai was absent-minded and blurted out, “You feed me?”
