After handing out the flyers, Tang Youxin entered the shop where she worked.
After a while, she took off her dinosaur doll costume, grabbed two bills, one red and one blue, and trotted out happily.
One hundred and fifty dollars.
This is probably her salary today.
"I'll give you hundreds of dollars and you won't take it. You'll be happy with it."
Xia Xu chuckled dumbly.
"That's different."
Little White Flower snorted and raised her head slightly.
"Right."
Xia Xu was thoughtful at first, and then nodded with deep understanding: "Making one's own money and making other people's money are indeed fundamentally different."
"No...bah, that's not right."
Tang Youxin subconsciously agreed, but she realized it immediately. She blushed, spat slightly, puffed up her cheeks and said, "I just..."
Her voice gradually dropped, along with her little head: "I just think that you let me work in the consulting company more out of love...it's obvious that the company has never had any business."
To be honest, working outside, even cleaning, was not far from the salary Xia Xu gave her. Her work during this period was completely worthy of the salary, and Xia Xu also persuaded her.
However, the two of them were familiar with each other, and their relationship gradually became a little unclear, so the salary they received became more and more strange, especially when the entire consulting company was like a decoration and had no business at all.
Of course, she also has her own little selfishness.
She didn't like the feeling of being unable to help and making no difference.
This made her feel as if she was gradually becoming an accessory, a dispensable real 'cleaner'.
Especially in the month after the college entrance examination, without the school as a stable intersection in life, Xia Xu went to Decheng for a 'business trip' again. She felt as if the two of them were suddenly cut off from each other, and she was getting further and further away from him.
the further away.
I tried my best to keep up, but he was walking too fast.
Thoughts, concepts, cognition, communication circles, social status and form.
The two seemed to have no intersection or anything in common.
Just like an ignorant girl who has completed her studies step by step and a successful person who has entered society, all aspects of the two are on parallel lines that do not intersect with each other.
She could occasionally hear about Xia Xu from Uncle Yang and others.
Listen to them boasting about the mystery, power, intelligence, excellence, and wealth of the 'Boss', and listen to them telling the legendary experiences of the 'Boss'.
This sometimes makes her secretly happy, but more often it makes her feel strange. It feels like Uncle Yang and the others are talking about a stranger, which is completely different from the Xia Xu 'classmate' she knows.
Don't.
She only knew him when he was on campus, and she was not included in his legendary experiences.
Uneasiness and panic had filled her little heart before she knew it.
"Don't you know that consulting companies don't open for three years and only open for three years?"
Xia Xu actually understood Tang Youxin's thoughts a long time ago, but at this time, he looked dumbfounded and smiled: "I took on a big business last month, and I also assisted the country's special departments."
"oh."
The little white flower nodded her head obediently, but she still seemed to be in a low mood.
"By the way, Youxin, I have something to tell you."
Xia Xu's heart moved.
"whats the matter?"
Tang Youxin finally cheered up and showed her curious baby-like appearance.
Xia Xu said: "I have decided on the university I will apply for."
"which university?"
When this matter was mentioned, Xiao Baihua's mood finally improved a little, and there was a hint of confidence in her expression.
Thanks to the mysterious potion, her college entrance examination scores were very high, and she was not far behind from a perfect score in all subjects. She would definitely be able to get into any university that Xia Xu could get into.
This is also her biggest source of peace of mind these days. No matter what, she can definitely still be his classmate.
"International Research University."
Xia Xu smiled.
"Eh?"
Grain stalks
This answer obviously made Xiao Baihua a little confused.
The International Research University has only been established for two years, and it does not recruit students directly to the public, so it is not well-known.
She had also heard that Xia Xu had announced in advance that he did not plan to study abroad, so she thought he would definitely choose between prestigious schools such as Qingbei.
"This is a rather special university..."
Xia Xu briefly explained the information he knew to Tang Youxin.
When she heard the special admissions method of the International Research University, Tang Youxin pursed her lips and said nothing, but her little head was obviously lowered towards her chest, and the atmospheric pressure around her seemed to have dropped.
The thing I was worried about actually happened.
And it happened so quickly that even the opportunity to attend the same university was deprived.
I have obviously fantasized about college life for a long time...
"No, it's okay. Just go and don't worry about me. I just talked about it casually before. Besides, I can study in other universities nearby..."
He spoke insincerely, stumbling over his words, but tears fell from his eyes unsatisfactorily.
Listening to Xiao Baihua's choked and insistent tone, Xia Xu instantly felt that his heart was about to break. He no longer cared about his original plan to prepare a small surprise and hurriedly comforted her.
"I didn't cry."
Little Baihua tried her best to raise her head and sniffled, but she still kept her mouth stiff, which made Xia Xu feel distressed and funny at the same time.
"Yes, yes, you're not crying, but can you just listen to me first?"
Xia Xu quickly explained, swearing: "You can definitely get into this school, and it's much easier than me. Don't forget that you are a computer genius. You can definitely get in, I guarantee it!"
"Then...then what should I do?"
Xiao Baihua's eyes once again became gleaming, and she asked hesitantly with a slight lack of confidence.
"It's very simple. From now on, classmate Tang Youxin, you will be promoted to a regular employee."
Xia Xu chuckled and patted her weak shoulder matter-of-factly: "From now on, you are no longer a clerk, but an official investigator of our consulting company, just like Lao Yang and the others."
Tang Youxin nodded in understanding and asked, "But what does this have to do with that school?"
"Our company is now a cooperative unit of a special department."
Xia Xu said with a smile: "They have many special events that require the assistance of high-end talents. You should work hard to learn programming and hacker attack and defense. By then we will be able to take on such tasks. Not only can we use this
If you enroll in school, you can also earn a lot of small money."
"A lot of pennies?"
After getting rid of the problem of enrolling in school, and hearing that he could make a little money, the little white flower instantly became a money-lover.
"Of course, this is to assist national departments in carrying out tasks, protect people's lives and property, and deal with the most powerful bad guys, and you will get a lot of bonuses."
Xia Xu follows the good and tempting path.
"Really?"
The little white flower's eyes lit up.
She can also help like Uncle Yang and the others, and she can also complete the country's assistance commission. While being glorious, she can also make a lot of money by relying on her true skills. For her, there is nothing more perfect than this.
"of course it's true."
Xia Xu nodded slightly and said with a smile: "In addition, in order to celebrate your successful transition to full-time job, classmate Tang Youxin, I have decided to fulfill a small wish of yours. If you have anything you want, just ask."
"I...I want to treat you to dinner."
Tang Youxin raised the two bills she had been holding in her hand.
Invite me to dinner...?
Xia Xu paused for a moment, then a doting smile appeared on his face, and he touched her little head: "Of course it's no problem, but can I make a small request?"
"any request?"
The little white flower tried hard to get rid of the big hand on top of its head and raised its head.
Xia Xu asked anxiously: "How about watching a movie instead?"
"no!"
Tang Youxin instantly felt like a kitten whose tail had been stepped on.
"But it seems like it's still a long time before dinner, so I have to kill some time, right? How about going shopping here? Or find a cafe or an amusement park?"
Xia Xu leaned closer and said with a smile, "Would you choose one?"
