The restaurant Jin Nan mentioned was not big, but it was quiet and clean.Rong Yuan is still very satisfied with this.As for the food, it is indeed better than what Rong Yuan usually eats, but it's not worth his special trip—or, in his opinion, the food doesn't have the value for him to come here to taste it. Even the imperial meal is the same.

The cook in the small restaurant is a crippled old man with a strong body and a strong voice when he speaks. It seems that he can live at least another 30 years.The waiter was a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl, she blushed quietly when she saw Rong Yuan, walked around their table twice with the teapot in her hand, and left reluctantly amidst the old man's shouts.

During the meal, the scene of Rong Yuan taking the child out and wiping his hands when he left just now still lingers in Jin Nan's mind.He thought, Rong Yuan is really an interesting person.

In the past few days, they seemed to be doing nothing for a few days, but Jin Nan was always evaluating Rong Yuan in his heart, and he believed that Rong Yuan was the same.

However, in the past when Jin Nan thought that Rong Yuan was just a young scientist who became famous and tried his best to protect him, Rong Yuan already had a deep understanding of him; and Jin Nan really only got to know Rong Yuan in the past few days .

He could always hear this name from Jin Yang many years ago, and knew that he had a very good friend in City A.However, their family did not have the habit of checking the background of anyone they knew casually, or even dispatching precious troops to monitor them when they had nothing to do. Since Jin Bai and his wife were sure that the child was fine, they were naturally relieved.

In Jin Yang's mouth, Rong Yuan is naturally good: kind, smart, strong, independent, hardworking, rigorous and so on.According to Jin Bai and his wife, he was a good boy who was taciturn and a bit withdrawn, but otherwise had almost no shortcomings.

——I have to say, to a large extent, this is because Jin Bai’s morality does not allow him to speak ill of his son’s savior behind his back, and it is also because Jin Yang cares about Rong Yuan, and Rong Yuan’s social status and conditions at that time were not good enough. It may pose a threat to Jin Yang, so it doesn't matter if you say so many good things.But he didn't want to, because of this long-term misleading, Jin Nan had a very good impression of Rong Yuan, so that he didn't put his suspicious eyes on Rong Yuan for a long time.

After really getting along, Jin Nan felt that Rong Yuan was like a book, you never know what is written on the next page.Even when you think you know him well enough, your previous thoughts will be overturned anytime and anywhere.

Just like when eating, he cherishes food and is not picky, but he never lets himself eat too much; he eats very carefully, and seems to enjoy the delicious food, but in fact he doesn't care about the taste at all, even if he himself You can eat the kind of dark dishes that are comparable to poison and medicine without changing your face; you think he has a dull sense of taste, and then you know that he can actually taste the heat, the amount of various seasonings, and the quality of ingredients in a dish with ease. He just doesn't care about the freshness.

But at least Kim Nam can be sure of this: he's not really heartless.

So, should he go further?

……

"Ding-dong-"

When the doorbell rang, Rong Yuan didn't take his eyes back from the e-reader, but just replaced the content in the Bhikkhu Star Language with a famous book on the earth.

Emerald jumped up to open the door, but no one came in after a while.Rong Yuan frowned and looked up, a figure suddenly rushed in from the entrance.

"Rong Yuan!"

A familiar and excited shout successfully stopped Rong Yuan's counterattack, and the visitor smoothly threw himself into Rong Yuan's arms, holding him tightly.

Wen Xiang nephrite was in his bosom, Rong Yuan was not excited, but calmly pulled out his arm, wanting to tear this person off, but suddenly felt a little wet on his neck.His arms stiffened, and he patted the girl's back stiffly.

Emirida blinked her big eyes, looked at them curiously, and secretly smiled when she saw Rong Yuan's distress, covering her mouth.Jin Yang put the car keys on the shoe cabinet, changed his shoes and washed his hands, and poured himself a glass of water to drink, very calm and at ease.

After a long time, the girl let him go, sniffed, wiped away her tears, and sat beside him.She stared at Rong Yuan intently, her eyes were moist, her cheeks were flushed, and there was a burning emotion in her moist eyes, as if a flame was burning in them.

Rong Yuan leaned back uncomfortably before saying, "Long time no see, Zhou Yuan."

"Yeah, it's been a long time." After saying this, Zhou Yuan couldn't help but burst into tears again.Jin Yang handed over a box of tissues in time, and Zhou Yuan took two, wiped away his tears and snot, sobbed vaguely, "It's been so many years... I thought you didn't think much of us anymore..."

During the time when Rong Yuan left, Xiao A never took the initiative to contact Rong Yuan's former classmates and friends in order to avoid revealing his secrets.Forget about the others, anyway, Rong Yuan has basically been in a state of seclusion since the third year of high school. Jin Yang knows something about it, only Zhou Yuan feels like being suddenly abandoned. The sadness and depression in her heart gradually settled, she could only bury herself in the crazy work, hoping that the increased performance would allow Rong Yuan to see her progress and efforts.

In fact, Jin Yang had implicitly hinted at her.It's just that for the sake of Rong Yuan, it's impossible to say this kind of words too clearly, and it can only be "tacted".But Zhou Yuan's thoughts at that time were not on the same line as Jin Yang's.She always felt that Rong Yuan left her behind because she was too stupid and incompetent.Therefore, she has squeezed herself to the extreme in the past few years, desperately chasing that unreachable figure.But now, when seeing Rong Yuan himself, the pressure and panic accumulated in the past few years suddenly hit, Zhou Yuan cried uncontrollably, finally stopped, and twitched from time to time.

Rong Yuan didn't speak.

In fact, Zhou Yuan's feeling is not wrong.If he doesn't look back, everyone will eventually be left behind by him.

During the four years, Zhou Yuan's changes were the most obvious. If he saw her right after he came back, Rong Yuan might not be able to recognize her.

The girl has lost weight completely, probably less than a hundred catties, and she looks much prettier.She put on light makeup, with thin eyebrows and big eyes, a slender neck, clear collarbones, and delicate arms and legs, which even seemed to be easily broken.It's just that she hasn't had a good rest for a long time. She has heavy dark circles, some fine lines around her eyes, and her skin is not very good.The hardships of the past still left inconspicuous traces on her body: her hands were not thin enough, her face was not white enough, and there were faint scars on her arms, which were left by her stepfather's beating.

Zhou Yuan finished her graduation defense this morning, only after Jin Yang told her the news of Rong Yuan's return.Sure enough, she ignored it, hung up the phone, picked up her wallet, bought a plane ticket and ran back without even packing her luggage.At this time, he was still wearing the shirt and suit skirt that he was responding to, but he had changed into sneakers for the convenience of activities, which looked extremely mismatched.

After getting excited, Zhou Yuan also noticed this.She groaned and covered her face, bemoaning why she had to leave such a bad meeting impression every time.

"I heard that you were defending your graduation in the morning, how was the result?" Rong Yuan took the initiative to talk, which is rare.

"It's okay, it's going well." Zhou Yuan said sullenly.It's not that she didn't want to say that she was better, but she ran back before waiting for the result. At this time, Rong Yuan lost confidence, worried about gains and losses, and worried about what to do if she failed the defense.

The atmosphere fell into embarrassment.

—Say something!Zhou Yuan!You can do it!Find a topic!

Zhou Yuan kept encouraging himself in his heart, but he didn't make a sound for a long time. Who told him that Rong Yuan next to him was born to stop talking, and he always hated meaningless small talk.

"Drink some water." Jin Yang poured her a cup of hot water and handed it over to her, then asked, "What are your plans after graduation? Do you want to continue your studies? Or do you want to help the company? Or go abroad to study for two years?"

Zhou Yuan subconsciously blurted out: "Aren't you—" You know?

Before the last three words were said, she suddenly realized why Jin Yang asked such a question, grabbed the corner of her clothes awkwardly, looked at Rong Yuan, lowered her head, gritted her teeth and said, "I want to enter the research institute."

Rong Yuan was a little surprised.There are many sugar country research institutes, but what she said is probably only one.

There was no turning back, Zhou Yuan paused, and continued: "My university is a double degree, majoring in biophysics and structural biology like you, and minoring in optoelectronic information science and engineering. I originally planned to graduate in August this year. Go take the recruiting exam for the institute."

Zhou Yuan said it simply, but anyone who knows a little bit knows how difficult her words contain.

The two majors she mentioned are both majors that many people devote themselves wholeheartedly to and it is difficult to learn well, not to mention that there is almost no connection between them, and the difficulty of learning can be imagined.She would choose these two majors, and she made up her mind to enter the graduate school from the very beginning.Originally, undergraduates like her had no chance, but in the past two years, Noah thought that it was too restrictive to only accept people recommended by universities and other research institutes each time. The most important thing was that it was optimistic about a few good seedlings but There was no way to get it in. After scratching my head for a while, I came up with the idea of ​​this assessment-no matter nationality, race, gender, age, education, experience, or whether you have won awards or honors, as long as you can pass its professional examination, you can get extra Qualify for admission to the Institute.

As soon as this condition came out, most people's first reaction was that the exam must be very difficult, so the number of people who signed up did not increase like Noah's blowout. Most of them were foreign scholars and spies, and some were self-righteous. young people.For these people, in order to justify throwing them out again, Noah created very difficult assessment questions.

So that year, the number of admissions: zero.

This further reinforces the impression that this assessment must be super difficult/Dr. Rong is just entertaining us.In the second year, Noah turned into a little angel on QQ, and he managed to impress two of his favorite youngsters to take the exam.It knows what they are good at, and naturally gives out test papers that seem difficult but are within the scope of their knowledge, and successfully abducts talents into its own bowl.

Therefore, there is the biggest shady thing about this exam—it is not only those who have passed the exam can be selected, but only those who have been selected can pass the exam.If Rong Yuan didn't come back, then in order to avoid being exposed in front of Zhou Yuan, Noah would definitely brush her off.

But now Rong Yuan decided to give her a fair chance without letting her go.

So Rong Yuan nodded and said calmly: "Then you go and try."

Hearing such a cold sentence, Zhou Yuan was overjoyed and nodded vigorously.

"Ok!"

Jin Yang: What should I do if I suddenly feel that my friend is a bit scumbag?
