His Excellency the Count of Grandet

Charles was stunned for a moment.

He didn't expect this, or it should be said that he really didn't mention Faraday to Victor in any way.On the one hand, the reason was that the matter of the generator hadn't been done yet, so he had to give himself some room to react; on the other hand, he didn't think it was necessary to report to others that he had made a friend.

But Victor knows now.How did he know?

For a moment, Charles thought of Alphonse who was going back to Paris, and couldn't help cursing viciously in his heart.With Alphonse following him later, he couldn't imagine what he could say to Victor——Alphonse wouldn't really tell Victor that he fell in love with Faraday, would he?

This guy with a big mouth, wait for him to go back and teach him a lesson!

Although Charles now only wants to hit Alphonse with a chestnut, he still has to deal with Victor who is almost on top of him first. "I thought it was my freedom," he said calmly. "Michael is my friend. What's your problem with that?"

There are more than just opinions, opinions are big!Victor pouted slightly. "It's really just like that?" He asked, in a tone of "I can't believe it", "Why do I feel that it's not just like that?"

Charles gave Alphonse another shock in his heart. "I guess, either there is something wrong with the way you listen, or there is something wrong with the way you think."

This time it was Victor's turn to raise an eyebrow.Does that mean, Charles, that either Alphonse was exaggerating, or that he was jealous? "But some things must be all right," he said slowly, "such as your unusual interest in him."

Come on, the tail of the big tail wolf is exposed, right?Charles couldn't help rolling his eyes in his heart.He didn't intend to explain this, but he really didn't want to irritate Victor (then it's hard to say what happened to them in the study), so he said patiently: "I appreciate Michael's work, that's all." What is there to eat flying vinegar?When the motor is invented by then, Victor will count the money softly!

But of course Victor doesn't know this.He pondered over Charles' words several times, from content to tone, plus Charles' expression when he spoke—as if there was nothing wrong?Are Alphonse and himself thinking too much? "'Appreciate his work'..." he repeated Shire's description, "When did you get interested in metal?"

While they were in London, Faraday did experiments on gold and platinum.Alphonse, how much did he say?Charles was almost defeated.If I knew it earlier, I would have dragged Alphonse to Eperna together, but it turned out that so many things were added for nothing! "It doesn't have much to do with that, it's electricity." Anyway, Victor and he were on the same boat, so it's okay to tell Victor in advance, at most, it's an early vaccination.

Victor raised both eyebrows this time, out of surprise and dissatisfaction.

Surprised because of electricity—he had heard a little about it, and knew that it was still in its infancy. There were many interested people, and it was not surprising to add Charles; dissatisfied because of the candidate—a chemical experiment assistant, where did Charles come from? See that Faraday can make achievements in electricity?Not to mention uncharacteristically bothering.Is this really not based on face, and other feelings?

But Victor didn't object directly. "If you think so, then I sincerely suggest to you that you should change your partner." He said softly, "Isn't the chief student of Imperial University a better candidate than you?"

If it is said that Charles had been holding the mentality of finishing the sentence quickly, now his interest has been really aroused. "You mean Ampere? You know him?"

André-Marie Ampere is in his forties.He previously taught physics and chemistry at the Central School of Bourjean-Bresse, before rising to the position of Rector of the Imperial University of France.Just a few years ago, he was elected as a member of the Department of Mathematics of Imperial College, and this year he also began to host the Philosophy Lectures of the University of Paris——

You read that right, philosophy.Most of the scientists of this era are amazingly versatile——

Sorry to drag it out again.The point of this matter is actually that Ampere is the discoverer (in the future) of the current right-hand spiral rule, and Victor's suggestion is not nonsense.

Seeing Charles's immediate reaction, Victor was a little surprised—it was just a job offer, why did Charles look very interested? "Sir Banksy, I wrote to introduce you, what do you think?" Subtext, I know people from other countries, why don't I know people from my own country?

Ciel stared at Victor's profile researchingly.He hadn't thought of it before, but when Victor mentioned Faraday and Ampere together, he couldn't help but open up a big brain hole——

Faraday was an experimentalist, and most of his achievements came from empirical summaries of experiments.Because he has not received a systematic education, he is not good at mathematics, so it is difficult to come up with formulas or something.

But Ampere is different.He came from a wealthy family, received a good education since he was a child, and even had a private library.Judging from his life experience so far, mathematics has undoubtedly improved to a higher level.

If, if these two people can work together, wouldn't it be...

Victor didn't know what Ciel was thinking, but he felt Ciel's eyes glowing.Judging from his standards, he thinks it is a kind of light that only occurs when a person is extremely excited or excited, just like...

fall in love?

Victor was defeated by his own imagination.But he also understood what was going on, why Alphonse insisted that Charles was in love with Faraday, and Charles insisted that he and Faraday were just friends—

Because Ciel's reaction seems really misleading!If he was not sure that he only mentioned Ampere's position just now, and Charles said that he had never met Ampere before, he would have thought that Charles was in love with Ampere, okay?

"What's the matter with you?" Victor couldn't bear it anymore, raised his hand to lift Charles' chin, trying to see himself more clearly. "Why do I think you're fascinated when you hear Ampere?" It seems that to Charles, both Faraday and Ampere are more attractive than him——

This unscientific!There is no reason at all!

Charles is indeed in a trance, because this time his brain hole has been opened to a future where the level of science and technology is rapidly improving.However, even if his brain was open to parallel universes, he couldn't resist Victor's action. He turned his head to avoid the hand, and then replied lightly: "Just thinking about something."

Things like the coal mine haven't been dealt with yet, so let's postpone it; anyway, there should be about a year left, so don't worry for now.When he returns to Paris after he is free, see if he has a chance to visit Ampere.If he can really realize his imagination just now, then he will be developed!The rhythm of soaring into the sky!

"Is it just a little thing?" Victor wondered.Look at Shire's little expression—I've never seen Shire with such a gentle expression, and it's just because of his suggestion; the point is not that this is his suggestion, but the person who has never met in the suggestion!This distinction is too obvious!

Charles ignored the remark. "Okay, you already know what you want to know?" He straightened up, trying to push away the person who had been standing in front of him, "Make room, please. Even if it's a formality, you should read some documents .”

Viktor squinted at him, turning half his body slightly.But as soon as Charles lifted his leg for the first step, he used a lightning-fast movement to push Charles back to the front of the table (the legs of the table moved slightly for this reason, and when they rubbed against the carpet, they made a hard sound. The deep voice that people noticed), the whole body leaned forward and kissed him——

Because the hand he raised just now did not retract immediately, but was fixed in mid-air.At this moment, he paused for a moment, and without hesitation pressed Charles' side face and neck from under his ears, preventing Charles from turning his head.The other hand was originally pressed on the table, but it also moved at this moment, grabbing Charles's two wrists together and pressing them behind his back——

At the very beginning, Charles was taken aback, and many thoughts flashed through his head——

The first reaction was that Victor still couldn't bear it...

The second reaction is that I also eat this kind of flying vinegar, I really don't know what I am thinking...

The last one is the countermeasure: if he doesn't resist, will Victor lose interest?

Charles didn't bother to struggle.Everyone is a man, now it's just kissing, rubbing around will really have something.And he worked all day, and he didn't have much energy to play close combat.Resistance can even arouse a man's desire to conquer, he might as well be more honest...

So Charles let Victor kiss him, only tilting his head slightly, so as not to bump their noses together.But then again, Victor just kissed him and didn't even bite him...

Of course Victor noticed this reaction. "You do this every time..." He slightly moved away from Charles' lips, but still stuck to the skin of Charles' cheek, as if enjoying the distance between breaths. "Can't you respond to me? Even just a little bit?"

Charles thought about the biggest consequence of speaking now, and then moved his fingers, suggesting their current posture. "What do you think I can be interested in under such circumstances?"

Victor laughed softly. "I dare not let go," he said teasingly, "Although you are very well-behaved now, but if I really let go, there will be absolutely no good end."

Charles let out a breath through his nose. "You know it, but you still want to do this?" When he said this, he felt Victor's lips were on his lips; when the tip of his tongue occasionally passed the edge of his lips when he was speaking, the other party came up to kiss him.

"Because I like you..." Victor replied.Because he is busy taking advantage, this is not clear.

Charles almost rolled his eyes at the sky.But this situation didn't last long, because there was a knock on the door outside: "Master, the master is back, please have dinner with that gentleman."
