199. Chapter 199 It's time for the emperor to flip his cards
"You are very keen. I feel more and more that choosing you to join our HX Research Institute is the right decision." The admiration in Wei Mao's eyes became stronger. "I didn't intend to hide this from the beginning. Our HX work is indeed
There is a certain degree of danger, and in serious cases it can even endanger life... Of course, in the end, the chance of this possibility happening is still very small. We have adequate protection measures and will not take the lives of our members at risk."
"If you want to convince someone, you must show enough sincerity... I don't even know what your research institute does. Do you think I might agree to you?"
Li Mengnan now feels more and more mysterious that the HX Research Institute is mysterious. For ordinary scientific research, even if it is dangerous as a nuclear physics laboratory, its internal members are unlikely to face life-threatening danger. And listening to the tone of this Wei Mao, it seems that they are there
The risk factor to be faced is no less than that of high-risk jobs such as building exterior wall cleaners and high-voltage line maintenance workers.
"Uh... I'm sorry, our research institute has internal regulations that prohibit confidential information above D level from being disclosed to non-internal members."
Wei Mao shook his head in embarrassment, and in his heart he scolded the person who made this rule for eighteen generations of his ancestors - you invite people to join, but you refuse to reveal the specific work, how hard must your brain be before someone agrees?
?
Fortunately, the recruitment benefits provided by the institute have always been good, and there have been signs of rising in recent years. Otherwise, he really doesn't know what to say about resigning to impress those extremely wary guys.
However, Li Mengnan's situation gave him a headache, because he found that although the carefree guy in front of him also liked money, he had a very indifferent view of money itself. He didn't know how this seemingly contradictory personality was formed.
But it was obvious that the institute's seemingly generous treatment had limited appeal to the guy in front of him.
At least it wasn't enough to offset the doubts and vigilance in his heart.
"Three minutes." Li Mengnan lowered his head and glanced at the time on his phone. There were still many beautiful things in life waiting for him to enjoy. He didn't want to waste time with this perverted uncle in front of him. "I'll give you three more minutes to convince me."
, if you can’t do it, then I’m sorry, you’d better find another way to do it.”
"If I said that there are many beautiful girls in the research institute, would you consider it?" Wei Mao's smile was very mean and unsmiling.
Li Mengnan stood up and turned away without saying a word.
"Hey, hey, hey! Don't be so stingy, okay!" Wei Mao finally understood that as long as Li Mengnan didn't let go, he would never be able to take the initiative, and he quickly surrendered: "Our research institute has strict confidentiality regulations, and I don't
I'm kidding you, but there's only so much I can say... Of course, if you can sign this contract and become a formal member of our HX Research Institute, you can know these things you want to know."
As he spoke, Wei Mao took out a contract written in black and white from his small shoulder bag, placed it on the table and pushed it in front of Li Mengnan.
The contract was made in triplicate, with about a dozen copies each, stacked together in a thick stack, giving people a very formal feel.
Li Mengnan picked up one of them and flipped through it briefly, and found that the key contents were basically the same as what Euonymus said, and there were no other important details left.
It can be said that except for the many welfare clauses and accidental casualty protection clauses, this contract is almost the same as the employment contract of ordinary enterprises.
Li Mengnan buttoned up the contract, pushed it back to Wei Mao intact, and said calmly: "You are late. If it were two days ago, I might really consider agreeing to you, but now... I can only
Say, I am very satisfied with my current life and don’t want to change anything.”
Li Mengnan is a person who does not have high requirements for material life. He has become sensitive to money recently just because of Xiao Baoer's huge surgery fee.
But now that the demolition notice of the shanty town has been issued, Baoer's surgery fee is no longer the biggest problem that bothers him, and his desire for money has faded again.
Change means more unknown situations will occur. Li Mengnan likes his current life very much, and he doesn't want to see any surprises.
"You...want to think about it again, I can guarantee that you will definitely like our job at HX."
Although it could be seen that Li Mengnan was determined by the weight, Wei Mao still tried to make a final death struggle.
"Three minutes have passed a long time."
Li Mengnan took out his cell phone and took a look at it. He ignored Wei Mao's dissuasion and stood up and walked straight to the door.
Opening the door, Li Mengnan suddenly seemed to remember something. He stopped and turned around and said, "I forgot to tell you that my ideal is to be a teacher... and not a scientist."
…
In the following days, Li Mengnan's college life returned to normal.
The unknown Wei Mao seemed to have completely given up the idea of recruiting Li Mengnan. He had not appeared since noon that day. This made Li Mengnan, who had thought that the opponent would "visit the thatched cottage three times" and persevered, a little uncomfortable. He always felt inexplicable when walking on the road.
There is an illusion that that thing will suddenly pop out of the grass.
The New Year's Eve party was held as scheduled. As the only magic trick in the entire party, Zhao Yingjun's show was widely praised. This little fat guy also became a little limelight in the school.
At the dormitory celebration party at the end of the party, Zhao Yingjun finally plucked up the courage to confess to Miao Miaomiao under the coaxing of several animals. The fake lolita obviously did not expect such an episode and was very moved, and then... refused
Zhao Yingjun’s confession.
Later, Li Mengnan learned from Minnie, who slept with Miao Miaomiao, that this fake lolita had a boyfriend as early as high school, but they were not admitted to the same university and were currently in a state of pain and happiness.
In the state of long-distance relationship.
In this way, Zhao Yingjun's first love ended beautifully before it even started.
However, the little fat man's mentality was quite good, and he was still cheerful all day long. Under the unscrupulous comfort of Liang Sanbo, "As long as you wield your hoe well, there is no corner that cannot be dug down." He expressed that he would regroup and try again in the future.
war.
Although Zhao Yingjun's first love shot in college missed the target, the romantic confession clearly stimulated the other two animals in the dormitory.
Since the celebration banquet that day, Liang Sanbo and Gao Dingtian seemed to have suddenly entered the estrus period. Every night, if they failed to say more than three sentences, they would inevitably go wrong, and then the topic would revolve around their respective departments.
The girl unfolded her hand, and from the tone of her voice, she seemed to have determined her target.
Of course, these three animals will not forget Li Mengnan. When they heard that Li Mengnan had no girlfriend, they all wanted to introduce the girls in their respective classes to him, and even secretly took a lot of photos for Li Mengnan to choose from.
Every time at this time, Li Mengnan would feel like he had become an emperor. Every night, he would be surrounded by three chief executives and asked to turn over the cards.
I'm very moved, but I have to say that the quality of the girls in these three classes is really not that good.
Forget about Liang Sanbo and Zhao Yingjun. Although the School of Art and the School of Foreign Languages are not places where beauties are recognized in Tunghai University, due to the particularity of their majors, the appearance of the girls among them is generally above the average, even if it is not eye-catching.
Once it lights up, at least it won't make people poke their eyes out.
But the photo that guy Gao Dingtian brought was quite weird. Li Mengnan, Liang Sanbo and Zhao Yingjun had their heads pressed together, and it was impossible to tell which of the burly men in the photo was a woman.
Well, it's not your fault that you are tall and strong. Having no breasts, no waist, and no butt is also a legacy of history. But at least you, a woman, should have long hair, right? With such a clear and slender head, you
It feels so comfortable. Is it possible that others have to take off your pants to confirm your true gender?
Once upon a time, it was difficult to find water in the sea.
Although Li Mengnan is not a person who cares much about the appearance of girls, by his side, there are either long-legged ladies like Wu Ansu, or sexy lolita like Qingche, and he even had sex with the gorgeous and charming Minnie.
Two times of ecstasy and bone-crushing passion, this experience obviously directly heightened his aesthetic sense, so much so that it was difficult to regain interest when looking at these ordinary girls who were not considered ugly.
Therefore, he could only express his gratitude to Liang Sanbo, Zhao Yingjun and Gao Dingtian for their kindness.
Speaking of Minnie, since the spring breeze last Saturday night, the other party's attitude towards him has changed significantly.
Although he still has that cold face in school, he no longer intentionally avoids him, and can communicate normally like ordinary classmates even in crowded situations.
And when there is no one around, such as in empty classrooms during evening self-study or in the woods beside the artificial lake, Minnie will not refuse his affectionate gestures even though she does not take the initiative.
There was even a moment when the two of them got emotional and had a wild battle.
Li Mengnan doesn't know what the current relationship between him and Minnie is...brothers and sisters are not like brothers and sisters, friends are not like friends, and lovers are not like lovers.
But every time he wanted to confirm with Minnie, he would either be distracted by Minnie and deliberately change the topic, or the other party would forcefully interrupt him. It was obvious that Minnie didn't want to answer the question at the moment.
"I am now sure that I like the feeling of being intimate with you, but I am not sure that I will also like to be with you at other times... So, for the time being, we will maintain the status quo of our relationship. During this period, I
I won’t interfere with you finding other girls to fall in love with, and you won’t try to make me express my opinion by beating around the bush, okay?”
This is probably the clearest explanation Minnie has ever given to the current strange relationship between the two.
Li Mengnan is a person with obsessive-compulsive disorder. Although he doesn't necessarily want to confirm the relationship between the two, he always feels a little entangled by dragging it on in such a unclear manner.
Although he also knows that emotional matters are inherently confusing and unclear.
Although there has been little progress on Minnie's side, the relationship between Li Mengnan and the little girl Qingche has been developing by leaps and bounds during this period.
Since the text message "Study hard and make progress every day" on Monday morning, the little girl Qingche has been sending text messages to Li Mengnan from time to time. The content is actually very boring. Most of them are talking about what she is doing now. It feels like she is sending text messages to Li Mengnan at any time.
Reporting on the itinerary, and this little girl is still enjoying it.
Later, the frequency of text messages was so high that Li Mengnan began to worry about his phone bill, so he simply gave his WeChat ID to this little girl.
Without the restriction on phone bills, the little girl Qing Che became even more active. As long as it was her break time, she would chat with Li Mengnan from time to time. If both parties had WIFI, they would even make video calls.
Li Mengnan didn't want people to know that there was such a teenage lolita clinging to him all day long, otherwise the beasts in the dormitory might label him as a "perverted lolita control".
Button it up, and then spread the word so much that most of Tunghai University knew about it.
But he didn't have the heart to explain it directly, which would hurt the little lolita Qingche's heart, so he had to hide it every time they chatted in the dormitory. On several occasions, he was even beaten by three cats because of Qingche's sweet voice.
Zoro mistakenly thought he was playing in a vulgar video chat room, and even held a meeting to educate him carefully.
Later, when the little girl learned about this, she laughed so much that she could hardly get up. However, she also expressed her understanding that she would only have normal chats in the future. Unless Li Mengnan took the initiative to apply, she would never start a video again.
.
Li Mengnan generously expressed his forgiveness to her.
Although during this period, the little girl Qingche's chatting behavior regardless of time and place was almost harassment to him, but from the words of this little girl's chat, Li Mengnan could also clearly feel that this little girl
The melancholy and pressure in my heart dissipated a lot as we chatted, and I even occasionally joked or acted coquettishly to him.
However, the little girl never mentioned a word about her promise to be his girlfriend that day. She obviously kept her promise, but her words did not hide the intimacy that came from her heart.
Although it was not intentional, the little girl's move could be said to have directly hit Li Mengnan's weakness.
He suddenly felt that if the little girl Qingche could still maintain her current thoughts and mentality five years later, he might really choose this little girl.
…
Two weeks have passed in the blink of an eye, and notices of demolition of shantytowns have been posted on every wall. Almost everyone is immersed in the joy of moving to a new home.
But it happened that on the morning of Friday, Li Mengnan suddenly received an emergency call from Xiao Baoer during class.
"Brother, come back quickly! Something happened at home! Something big happened!"
Although the little girl Xiao Baoer usually looks weak, after all, the children of poor people have long been in charge, and their ability to deal with problems is far superior to that of little girls of the same age. To make her so flustered, with a cry in her tone, she has obviously encountered a huge problem.
trouble.
Li Mengnan didn't care that it was during class. He threw the book directly to the fourth girl, the class monitor, grabbed the coat hanging on the back of the chair, got up and walked out of the big classroom.
"This classmate is in class now. Where are you going?" The old professor on the podium raised his glasses and asked slowly.
"I'm sorry, teacher, it's time for the baby at home to be fed."
Li Mengnan didn't have time to ask Xiao Baoer the specific reason, so he could only make nonsense.
The old professor was also happy. Although this reason sounded nonsense at first glance, he had lived for such a long time and understood that everyone would inevitably have unspeakable secrets. Moreover, it could be seen from the demeanor and pace of the student in front of him that he was indeed in trouble.
Something extremely important has come to pass.
"Then go quickly, don't starve the child... I just pretend I didn't see anything." The old professor was very humorous.
"Thank you then. I will definitely carry the child over to see you another day."
Li Mengnan didn't expect that this seemingly stern old professor could be so reasonable. He quickly bent down and bowed. After standing up, he glanced at the back row as if inadvertently, turned around and ran out of the classroom quickly.
Minnie, who was also sitting in the large classroom, certainly understood that Li Mengnan was looking at her, and she also vaguely guessed that the phone call just now was probably from Xiao Baoer. Although she didn't know what happened, she knew from Li Mengnan's reckless behavior
Judging from the behavior of absenteeism, it is obvious that something big happened at home.
Minnie was so anxious at the moment that she had no intention of attending the lecture anymore and wished she could just put on her wings and fly home.
But she didn't dare to skip class directly like Li Mengnan. If the old professor could grant Li Mengnan's leave, he might not necessarily grant her leave.
Moreover, as soon as Li Mengnan left, she had to leave with him. Wouldn't that be a clear indication that there was a secret relationship between the two?
