Sir, what if it's too cold?

Zhou Qing's eyebrows were full of displeasure at being interrupted, or when he stood up, he suddenly thought of his own student in front of him, so he abruptly controlled his facial expression to make it look gentler: "What's the matter?"

Xu Zhiyang opened his mouth: "I..."

He originally wanted to ask Zhou Qing to help him revise his thesis, but unexpectedly, he saw something that he should not have known.

His teacher just pressed his "senior sister" on the sofa in the office, and that posture was a bit like a forced kiss.

He raised his hand to scratch his head, rubbed the pockets of his jeans helplessly, and stammered for a while before saying, "I...I...I originally wanted to ask Mr. Zhou to revise the thesis, now I'm fine, I'll talk about it next time Go." The speed of the speech surprised even himself.

After speaking, he was about to go out, but Zhou Qingke stopped him politely: "Come here, I happen to be free now, so I will tell you something. Is it the one you wanted to submit to National Physics last time?"

Xu Zhiyang mechanically nodded: "Yes."

Zhou Qing responded, and pointed casually: "Sit down, I'll go out and wash my hands."

... Let him sit next to "Senior Sister"?

Xu Muran said in a timely manner: "Is it inconvenient? If it is inconvenient, I will go outside first."

The corner of Zhou Qing's mouth curled up: "No, just sit here."

The gentle smile fell into Xu Zhiyang's eyes, which was extremely dazzling.

He numbly sat across from Xu Muran, lowered his head without saying a word.

There was an unbearable silence in the room, Xu Zhiyang didn't expect the person in front of him to suddenly say: "Just now... I got something dirty on my face, Teacher Zhou wanted to wipe it off for me, but the posture was awkward, don't think too much many."

A good one here is 300 taels of silver.

"Oh, you don't need to explain to me." He really admired himself, and he could still talk to people with a smile under such circumstances. "This is the teacher's private matter, and it has nothing to do with our students."

"What's more," he looked at the suspicious blush on the other's face, and said calmly, "You two are both women, so it's okay to be intimate."

"That's right," the girl's eyes lit up, "Aren't all good friends like this?"

He looked at the other person's face that suddenly became vivid, and every word she uttered was like a newly tempered awl, piercing his heart to pieces.

Xu Zhiyang stared blankly at the ground under his feet, made a decision in a hurry, stood up abruptly, and forced himself to say to the startled Xu Muran: "Suddenly remembered that I still have something to do. I'm gone, if Teacher Zhou comes back later, if you ask, please explain it for me, thank you."

Without waiting for the other party to reply, he rushed out the door.

The chaotic footsteps formed a string, resounding through the Zhixing Building in the afternoon.

Xu Zhiyang sat against the wall in the far corner of the equipment room, buried his cheeks deeply in his palms: this was the first time he had tasted love in his life, but he didn't expect it to be so bitter.

The smile on the corner of Zhou Qing's mouth appeared in front of his eyes again.He thinks he knows Zhou Qing, he has seen her cold as ice, her earnestness, and her persuasion, but he has never seen her treat anyone like that girl, taking off the wind and snow all over her body, smiling Like a defenseless child.

No matter who it is, in front of the one you love deeply, it will degenerate into the simplest appearance.

"Why..." He muttered to himself, his tone gradually out of control: "Why, why, why why why!"

It's not that Xu Zhiyang doesn't know that it's almost impossible for her to be with him.He was already prepared to hide these feelings deep in his heart, spend the remaining years in peace and stability, and then he can never see each other again.

But he was not reconciled.

How could he be reconciled?

If the other person is tall, handsome, gentle and considerate, and he can't even hold a candle to him, that's fine; but that person is ordinary, except for longer hair and more smiles, he is no different from most people he has met.

Oh yes, it's still a woman.

It never occurred to him that he would lose at this point.

Directly opposite where he was, there was a glass cabinet displaying various balances. Xu Zhiyang raised his eyes, and the smooth transparent glass was like a mirror, clearly reflecting his slumped and defeated face.

Ridiculous, too ridiculous.

Loving someone who can't like you is like eating mustard empty-handed. You know it won't bring you a pleasant experience, but you still swallow it while crying.

Xu Zhiyang thought, he should have understood earlier.

He was about to leave the equipment room, when he accidentally saw a scene from the window next to the door that made him feel stuck in his throat.

Zhou Qing took the girl downstairs, turned his head and said something to the other party frequently, making the other party laugh and tremble, then touched her head, and tucked the scarf tighter for her.

Standing there, he felt that the blood all over his body was cold.

Keep saying that you don't care, it's all a joke in the end.

He never knew that he liked Zhou Qing so, so much.Xu Zhiyang only felt that a gust of wind had just blown up on the ground, blowing the dust into his eyes impartially.

Just as he was about to walk up the escalator of the shopping mall, Xu Muran's phone rang.She took a look, a little strange: why would Lu Tianhua call her at this time?Could it be...

Have to work overtime again? !

She has been working overtime for almost a week, if she comes again...

She shook her head and opened the call interface: "Hey master, what's the matter?"

"I want to ask you something," Lu Tianhua hesitated for a moment, then said, "Do you want to go abroad?"

"...Going abroad?"

Hearing this word, Zhou Qing's heart skipped a beat, and he turned to look at the people around him.

Xu Muran waved at Zhou Qing, meaning to let her go to the restaurant first, and then go up after answering the phone, Zhou Qing nodded.

She hid aside, and after listening for half a minute, she understood the cause and effect.

Before Baimeng mentioned the number of exchange places at public expense, the whole department would send three people to the UK, and Lu Tianhua recommended her.

"Thank you, master," Xu Muran replied, "Well, if there is a chance, of course I want to go."

She was ashamed to brush off Lu Tianhua's kindness face to face, she thought, with so many people in the whole department, many of them are more experienced than her, it probably won't be her turn.

After seeing her, Zhou Qing handed her the menu, seemingly unintentionally asked: "I just heard you say on the phone that you want to go abroad?"

"What country?" Xu Muran smiled helplessly, "It's just talking, it probably won't be my turn."

She told Zhou Qing what had happened, Zhou Qing pondered for a moment and said, "Do you want to go?"

"Me?" Xu Muran poured himself a cup of tea, thought for a while, "I want to go, but I don't want to go that much. Go if you can, it's a personal experience anyway."

Zhou Qing stared at her white wrist, and gave a faint "hmm".

A week later, a work email was sent to Xu Muran's mailbox.

Her application, or the application submitted by Lu Tianhua for her, was approved.
