"Minister Huiyue, you don't have to worry about how you look in my eyes. Everyone's aesthetics and judgment standards are different. Don't easily deny or affirm yourself because of my comments." Qinglao said.
A profound statement.
"Of course I know this simple truth." Minister Huiyue's tone was very low, "But in the branch research institute, please give me, the director of the ASEAN City branch, some face."
"Okay. After all, the ASEAN City branch of the Spirit of Creation Mechanism will rely on you, Minister Huiyue, to watch over you at the last moment." Unexpectedly, Mr. Qing did not refute Minister Huiyue.
"Thank you, Mr. Qing, for your thoughtfulness. I will definitely live up to Mr. Qing's expectations." Minister Huiyue nodded.
After explaining to Qing Lao, Minister Huiyue stayed at the First Research Institute as usual, inspecting the daily operations of the mechanical division, with Qing Lao following beside him.
Minister Huiyue looked at the mechanics who were conducting research in front of him and complained: "I have to worry about a lot of things every day, and sometimes I feel that the depraved idea of 'no need to worry about anything' is very comfortable. But this is also a high position.
weight, and I have no delusions of retirement.”
"I didn't expect that Minister Huiyue also had a serious side. I thought Minister Huiyue was an idiot who didn't understand propriety and moderation." Mr. Qing continued to ridicule Minister Huiyue.
"Please, I'm not the incompetent waste that Qing Lao thinks. I have the self-awareness and self-awareness of a leader."
There was no one around except Qing Lao, so Minister Hui Yue was able to express his thoughts directly.
"Oh? Minister Huiyue, you are quite tolerant of your own self-assessment." Qinglao said in surprise.
"Has Qing Lao ever been jealous and slandered in the past?" Minister Huiyue stopped.
"Minister Huiyue, why did you suddenly ask this question?"
"I'm just asking casually, don't go into too much detail. If you don't want to explain, Qinglao, just pretend I didn't ask." Minister Huiyue looked embarrassed.
"Forget it. In fact, I have encountered the situation that Minister Huiyue mentioned more than once in the past. I have a lot of experience. I can't change the environment around me, and there are always people around me who don't like me. Jealousy
I'm used to being slandered and slandered. But I don't accept their negative comments. Comments that can't even explain the basic truth are completely nonsense." Qinglao gave his own answer, "If it's too much
If you care about the attitude of the people around you, you will easily fall into self-doubt. From my observation, Minister Kaguya is the type of person who easily falls into self-doubt."
"And in the past few years, when I retired, I also learned through the grapevine that the ASEAN City branch of the declining Spirit of Creation Agency had some bad rumors. For example, Minister Huiyue was the biggest sinner of the branch and was the ASEAN City branch.
The main culprit for the decline of the branch. Compared with the previous ministers, the ministers of this term are basically rubbish, and other vicious remarks are made. However, in the eyes of sensible people, these are just disgusting false rhetoric.
"
"But those harsh words did cause a certain degree of psychological damage to me before. At that time, I suffered from mild depression and could only maintain a normal life through special drugs." Minister Huiyue
surface
Feeling depressed, "At that time, a lot of pressure and public opinion swept over me, which was enough to make me breathless because of my unstable mentality. And the ministerial position that I was originally pursuing became a hot potato. No matter who was in the branch,
I don’t want to be the head of the branch anymore.”
"That's why, Minister Huiyue, you asked me if I have ever been slandered by others. So now, Minister Huiyue, do you still feel depressed about this kind of thing?" Qing Lao slowly put his hands behind his back.
Minister Huiyue frowned and said: "The current ASEAN City branch of the Spirit of Creation Agency has Mr. Qing, so I will not be troubled by such strange things, but I am not sure what I will do after Mr. Qing leaves the branch.
Can we have enough strength to safeguard the achievements of the young and old efforts?"
Qinglao looked at Minister Huiyue with firm eyes and lowered his head silently, "In other words, Minister Huiyue became a little less confident after I left. I don't think Minister Huiyue needs to worry. Since Huiyue
Before the minister asked me to go out, I stayed in the ASEAN City branch despite being under pressure from public opinion, so I have sufficient psychological quality."
"Yeah, but 'gaining and then losing' is often more sad than 'never having'. And now I'm a little shaken by the fact that Qinglao left the ASEAN City branch of the Spirit of Creation Agency."
"Don't always think about negative things. Now Minister Huiyue should focus on solving this stalled branch revitalization plan." Qinglao did not directly answer Huiyue's question, "No matter what the final situation is.
, can be influenced by your own behavior, so don’t stand still, Minister Huiyue."
"In my eyes, Qing Lao has always been so confident and free and easy. I will not give up the ASEAN City branch of the Spirit of Creation Agency, and I will not easily give up this opportunity given to me by Qing Lao." Minister Huiyue said.
Made a promise.
"Then it depends on your performance."
Qinglao did not explain the nature of his explanation thoroughly, leaving a little hope for Minister Huiyue.
…
"Hey? Lingsi, aren't you going to the laboratory to do research today?"
Muse, who was dealing with his daily work, looked at Lingsi who appeared in front of him in confusion.
"Well, something unexpected happened today and the seminar ended early. I just didn't have anything to do, so I just wanted to come over and see you, Miusi." Lingsi, who was sitting on the armchair, smiled at Miao who was working.
Si said.
Muse was still wearing her coffee shop uniform and was holding a round dinner plate in her hand.
Today, the task assigned to her by Minister Huiyue is to help coffee shops that are short of manpower due to special reasons.
"I see, Lingsi is already busy with her work today. But I will have to help here the next day, until the place closes." Miusi showed a frustrated expression.
It is estimated that deep down in her heart, she also wants to cherish the time when Lingsi is still in the branch.
——After all, it has only been a few days since Lingsi officially left ASEAN City.
Miusi said bluntly: "Oh, it's a waste of time to stay here and work. It would be great if I could give up the task now and go play with you, Lingsi."
Muse, who had returned from the reception, patted the table in front of Lingsi and looked pitifully at the frightened Lingsi.
Lingsi stood up and shook her hard
Body: "Muse, you are too excited. Don't always think about unrealistic things."
"But Lingsi, your stay in the branch has almost come to an end." Miusi looked at Lingsi seriously.
"...Muse, you are right. In order to help you, Muse, adapt to life without me, I have recently been planning to reduce the chances of appearing in front of you," Lingsi told the truth without hiding anything.
"Hey, Lingsi. Do I have to stay at the ASEAN City branch of the Spirit of Creation Agency?" Muse asked a question that surprised Lingsi.
Lingsi came to her senses: "That's right. This is really a point of negligence on my part. The reconciliation with Director Linyao was an unexpected change. As long as Director Linyao is willing to facilitate it now, Muse and I can do it."
Leave ASEAN City smoothly. Muse, you finally don’t have to stay alone in ASEAN City.”
Lingsi happily reported the good news to Muse, but this time Lingsi saw Muse's tense and bitter face.
Lingsi asked uneasily: "Muse?"
Muse shook his head and said in a heavy tone: "No, even if there is a way to leave together, I will choose to stay here. After all, the accident outside ASEAN City is my personal responsibility. Use Lingsi to think of you
With my hands stained with blood, I am not qualified to leave the ASEAN city as if nothing happened with the help of Director Linyao."
"But in that case, Muse, you will always have to carry that guilt, and it will be difficult for you to get the final redemption." Lingsi was also a little panicked.
Miusi complained: "Lingsi, don't treat me like a child just because I'm pretending to be stupid when I wake up! I can already make rational decisions on my own... How to put it, I think it's very difficult to stay in the ASEAN city."
An Yi, Ling Si, you will make me feel a little restrained when you are by my side."
Lingsi was silent for a while and replied: "...Since these are your sincere words, Miusi, I won't say anything more. But Miusi, you have to remember that no matter what happens, you can always be the first
Contact me when you choose."
"Muse, whatever you want to do, go ahead and do it. As long as it doesn't violate the law, be a free humanoid girl."
"...Lingsi, thank you for your support of my willful ideas." Miao Si looked at Lingsi gratefully, "I promise you that I will not do the kind of accident that happened a few years ago. I will wait until Lingsi when you are in the capital.
While you are settling down, please keep in touch with me."
"No problem, I agree."
"Ling Si, you are such an angel. I like you the most." Miao Si ignored the sight of others and hugged Ling Si.
"You idiot Muse, I can't even breathe."
"Eh? Sorry, sorry."
…
Muse slowly moved away from Lingsi, arranged her uniform and returned to work. Lingsi, who had been worried, finally breathed a sigh of relief and ordered a cup of pure coffee with peace of mind.
"If this world can run according to the trajectory I expect, that would be great. Anyone can get a happy ending. Pain and sadness will not exist. Within the scope of permission, do whatever you want.
Everything can be done, and the mood can be relaxed... This should be a far away place, an ideal city that does not exist."
