Chapter 611: Indignant and Unfair
Chapter 611: Indignant and Unfair
The university sports field appears even livelier at night, with the bright moonlight spreading across it, casting a gentle glow. A breeze blows by, causing the leaves at the edge of the field to sway gently, like little fairies dancing in the night, captivating anyone who looks on.
The field is filled with students running or walking. Of course, there are also groups of two or three sitting on the artificial grass, happily chatting away.
Zhou Yaling, wearing a hat, walks alone, looking somewhat out of place in the crowd. However, no one seems to mind her being a lone walker.
Looking at those chatting groups, Zhou Yaling feels a bit envious.
There was a time when the four of them from her dormitory were like that.
But now? The food in the cafeteria still tastes the same, and the scenery of the campus is unchanged, yet the relationship among the four dormmates has completely broken down, not to mention that one of them has passed away.
"Sigh~"
Just then, Zhou Yaling felt someone tap her on the shoulder.
"Senior, can I add you on WeChat?"
She was about to turn around to see who it was, but upon hearing these words, Zhou Yaling’s face stiffened, and in the next second, she bolted away.
Her speed could easily compete in a campus 100-meter sprint.
Leaving behind the confused junior.
Could it be that his intentions were seen through by the senior?
Last year, Zhou Yaling was a prominent figure within her department.
Everyone knew that this senior was a relative of the boss of Candy Technology, and naturally, who wouldn’t want a bright future?
After running far away, Zhou Yaling stopped and turned back to take a look. No one was following her, so she finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Wasn’t this the sixth one already? Zhou Yaling chuckled bitterly.
Earlier in the daytime, the first handsome guy used the same line, making her think her charm had increased, but it turned out she was overthinking.
"Forget it, might as well go back to the hotel and video chat with Candy."
Half an hour later, it was already past half an hour into the night, and Candy was examining a safe delivered by a courier earlier that evening when the WeChat notification sounded. Candy got up, picked up the phone from the bed, and broke into a smile.
After the video call connected, Candy shouted loudly:
"Sister."
Seeing the background of Candy’s video being in a room, Zhou Yaling exclaimed in surprise:
"Why did you come back to your room so early today?"
"Hehe, it’s a secret." Candy giggled, not telling her sister that she was figuring out how to use the safe.
"Tch~ What secrets could you possibly have, isn’t it just the thing under your bed..."
This was indeed a secret, fortunately, she stopped in time.
Unaware that her Little Golden Pig was already broken, Zhou Yaling was still glad her brain was quick.
However, Zhou Yaling didn’t consider who was on the other side of the video call.
Fooling ordinary little kids is one thing, but is Candy that easy to fool?
"Hmph, sister, I heard it all."
"You’re talking about the Little Golden Pig I hid under the bed, right?"
Zhou Yaling looked at Candy in shock. This kid is so open about it, maybe her brother confiscated Candy’s little treasury.
Clicking her tongue, Zhou Yaling thought her brother was impressive, confiscating Candy’s little treasury and still managing to cheer her up, and the key is that Candy was so proud about it, isn’t this a remarkable trick?
However, in the next moment, Candy turned the camera to reveal a metallic box, looking more and more like a safe.
The next second, Candy proudly said, "Hehe, with a safe, I’ll keep it in sister’s room, how about that?"
"Not good!"
It was indeed a safe, her brother was something else.
"Where’s your Little Golden Pig?"
Candy, turning the video back to herself, said regretfully, "I didn’t hold it steady, and accidentally broke it."
Broke it? Zhou Yaling hadn’t expected this outcome.
With a slight smile, Zhou Yaling asked, "You broke it, did you cry?"
"Nope~"
"Brother gave me the safe as a gift~"
Clearly, Zhou Yaling didn’t believe it.
Her brother gifting a safe meant it was to appease Candy. Therefore, inferring from this, after Candy broke the Little Golden Pig, she must have cried.
"Sister, I’ll tell you secretly; I’ve saved 12,852.10 yuan!"
"When you come back, I’ll treat you to bubble tea."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yaling couldn’t help but chuckle.
"Brother texted me not to buy you bubble tea."
As expected, Candy, who was just smiling a moment ago, couldn’t smile anymore, her bright eyes filled with indignation.
"Hahaha." Seeing Candy’s setback made Zhou Yaling even happier.
The transfer of joy, just like that, was so quick.
"Come on, let’s play King of Glory?"
"Hmph, no way, I don’t have time, I haven’t figured out the safe yet."
"Sister, I’m hanging up, we’ll chat tomorrow. In a bit, brother will definitely call me to wash up."
Doo~
On the hotel bed, Zhou Yaling pouted in dissatisfaction.
It’s just because she’s worried I’ll find out the safe’s password.
In the morning, sunlight spills across the earth, giving people a sense of the approaching summer.
It felt cold when leaving home in the morning, but now walking under the sun, wearing so many clothes already feels a bit warm.
In the classroom, having unzipped her jacket, Candy is reading a Chinese textbook.
Not only is the story inside captivating, but every picture above invokes endless imagination in Candy.
Looking at the scene of catching butterflies in the textbook, Candy felt as if she were the child holding a net catching butterflies.
Birds chirping, flowers blooming, a large lawn, and kites.
As the teacher walked by, Candy was oblivious. The teacher, intentionally passing by, was surprised to see the Chinese textbook on Candy’s desk, isn’t this a first-grade book?
These days, children are so intense.
Behind the kindergarten, in the second lab building separated by two enormous buildings, everyone had been evacuated. Except for the ground floor, without permission, one couldn’t go to other floors.
Staff from the logistics department watched in awe as Whites moved cartloads of supplies upstairs.
Each White worth millions, yet in Candy Science and Technology Park, they are merely tool people, and the boss couldn’t care less.
Even though they couldn’t hear or see what White was doing upstairs, with impact drills, cutting machines, and various building materials, it wasn’t hard to imagine White was transforming the completed lab.
Gradually, the second lab building, like the first, was shrouded in a veil of mystery.
In the office, Mo Jingchun sat on the sofa, one hand petting a cat, the other holding a phone reading a progress report email from the aerospace research center head.
With the foundational data the upper ranks provided, the research progress was commendable, yet it was still far from Mo Jingchun’s desired target.
The report sounded promising, but Mo Jingchun could tell that at this pace, it would take five or six years before seeing the shadow of the aerospace rocket.
"Whew~"
"Seems like the aerospace research center still needs a massive recruitment of personnel."
