"Flip forward the PPT, the second page, yes." Mu Xu faced the online meeting window on the computer screen, "Please explain the project background again, I didn't understand."

"Okay." The narrator repeated the content on the PPT, and Mu Xu interrupted: "Wait a minute, here..."

Next to the mahogany table is a milky-white desk, on which there is a tea break fruit plate and three bottles of sparkling drinks.Chi Juntao sat behind the desk, hugging the computer, facing the floor-to-ceiling windows, with bluetooth headsets plugged into his ears, typing on the keyboard with his fingers, writing a line and deleting half a sentence, and only finished two paragraphs in two hours.

"OK, I'm fine." Mu Xu said, "According to what I just said, give me another version on Wednesday."

"Okay, Mr. Mu." The subordinate said, "Can I give it to you before 6 pm on Wednesday?"

"Okay, thanks for your hard work." Mu Xu said, he closed the meeting window, and sent a message to Kan Mengran, [Set me as busy for the next hour, and all other things will be blocked except for the first-priority projects. 】

[Kan Mengran: Received. 】

"How is the opening report?" Mu Xu asked.

Chi Juntao stared blankly at the birds outside the window while wearing a bluetooth headset, without any response.

Mu Xu walked over and pinched the tips of Chi Juntao's ears. Chi Juntao was startled, and took off the earphones: "What?"

"The opening report." Mu Xu asked.

"I wrote, uh, two paragraphs." Chi Juntao said, "I have no idea."

"Let me take a look." Mu Xu picked up the computer in Chi Juntao's arms, and read the topic of the thesis, "This topic is okay."

"I came up with three angles." Chi Juntao said, "But I think these angles are too..."

"Too ordinary." Mu Xu said, "Not amazing enough?"

"Yes." Chi Juntao said, "I have read ten papers with similar topics, but none of them are what I want."

Mu Xu grabbed a chair and sat beside Chi Juntao. He asked, "What references did you choose?"

"Here." Chi Juntao's hand crossed Mu Xu's arm, his fingertips slid on the touchpad, and he clicked on a folder, where densely packed files were listed, "The ones I've seen are marked with [done] before."

"Serious and meticulous, not bad." Mu Xu said, he glanced at the title of the document, "I have an hour to spare, tell me what you think, and we'll discuss what to write next."

"I thought you were busy." Chi Juntao said.

"I'm very busy." Mu Xu said, "So please hurry up and talk."

Chi Juntao first sat on the swivel chair and talked about his thoughts. Mu Xu indicated that the wall was a whole piece of glass with writing function, so he stood beside the wall with a marker and drew while talking.Mu Xu asked questions from time to time, and Mu Xu perfected it. Four or 10 minutes later, Mu Xu and Chi Juntao stood beside the glass wall, showing a clear thesis structure on the wall.

"Here, here, and here need more evidence to support." Chi Juntao said, "I remember there are a few papers, but I haven't had time to read them yet."

"Most of the arguments for the newly proposed viewpoints are in English literature." Mu Xu said, "I'll find them for you."

"Thank you." Chi Juntao said. He looked at the glass wall and sighed, "I have never felt that my thinking is so clear."

"If you don't mind," Mu Xu raised the corners of his lips and said with a smile, "I suggest you refer to my graduation thesis."

"..." Chi Juntao was silent for a while, then said, "Your desire to win is really strange."

"It's just a small proposal." Mu Xu said, "You don't have to accept it."

"Send me your paper." Chi Juntao said.

Mu Xu snapped his fingers, walked around behind the mahogany table and turned on the computer, and after a few operations, he said, "I sent it to you."

"You carry your thesis with you at all times?" Chi Juntao said in surprise.

"I'm more nostalgic." Mu Xu said, he fiddled with the pink rabbit keychain next to the pen holder, and the phone made a "ding dong", indicating that it was an hour.

"At least give me a first draft before leaving get off work." Mu Xu said, he picked up his mobile phone, "I have a meeting, and I will come back at about seven o'clock to check the homework."

"I have a game tonight." Chi Juntao said.

Mu Xu looked at him: "Are you sure there is a game?"

Chi Juntao said, "...I can have it."

"Push it away now, you have no game." Mu Xu said, he picked up his laptop and walked out of the office, "Meng Ran is working at the door, she is wearing pointed high heels, and one kick can knock you into paralysis."

"I'm not that cruel." Kan Mengran said, "But I can."

Birds of a feather flock together, and people are divided into groups. As expected, there are no normal people around Mu Xu.Chi Juntao resigned himself to sitting behind the table, picked up the jelly on the plate, tore open the package and took a sip. It tasted like strawberry and was delicious.

The three-hour meeting was exhausting, Mu Xu walked out of the conference room, the sky was dark, Kan Mengran put the folder on the corner of the table, and said to Mu Xu: "Young Master Chi has been to the bathroom a few times, and he went to the tea for two drinks." A cup of coffee, no protesting or screaming."

"Good performance." Mu Xu said, "Go and eat, I'll take over here." He pushed open the door, Chi Juntao didn't realize it, put his elbows on the table, fixed his eyes on the computer screen, and frowned .

"Are you hungry?" Mu Xu asked.

"I've finished writing." Chi Juntao said, "I'm reading documents."

"Let me take a look." Mu Xu put the laptop on the mahogany table, sat next to Chi Juntao, glanced at the alfalfa on the window sill, and said, "Did you water it?"

"It's a little wilted from the sun." Chi Juntao said.

"Its vitality is very tenacious." Mu Xu said, he pinched the leaves of the alfalfa, "Do you know, it is a kind of pasture."

"The best feed for rabbits." Chi Juntao said, "I know, I checked."

"You pay attention to it." Mu Xu said, he picked up Chi Juntao's computer and put it in his arms, carefully checking the opening report of more than [-] words.

Chi Juntao was not interested in rereading what he had written, his eyes wandered from the computer to Mu Xu's profile.Mu Xu has a gentle and elegant appearance, with a full forehead, a high nose bridge, and slightly thin lips, which does not hinder the overall beauty, but adds a sense of alienation and indifference.

Perhaps it was because the surroundings were too quiet, Chi Juntao felt the noise of his heart pumping for the first time, he slowed down his breathing rhythm, blinked his eyes, and even the texture of Mu Xu's skin was reflected in his eyes.

reflected in the heart.

Chi Juntao forcibly turned his gaze to the computer, but was attracted by Mu Xu's hand, as if Mu Xu was carrying something called "Chi Juntao Attractor", every inch of his skin could distract Chi Juntao .

"Is there a problem with your logic here?" Mu Xu pointed to the computer screen and read out a line marked in red, "The argument and the evidence don't quite fit together."

"Ah, let me think about it." Chi Juntao quickly dismissed the inexplicable thoughts in his head and replied.

"Let me mark it for you first." Mu Xu said.

"Okay." Chi Juntao said.

"Pour me a cup of tea, add a spoonful of milk and a spoonful of sugar." Mu Xu said.

Chi Juntao stood up, walked around the desk, and got Mu Xu's cup: "Where are the sugar and milk?"

"In the cupboard under the teapot." Mu Xu said.He breathed a small sigh of relief, Chi Juntao was too close to him, he even felt the smell of lavender from Chi Juntao's hair brushing the tip of his nose, and Chi Juntao's gaze.He didn't feel uncomfortable being stared at before. When Chi Juntao looked at him, his hairs stood on end for no reason, as if he was being hunted.For Mu Xu, who has always been strong, being hunted is not comfortable. He suppresses the urge to attack in his heart, such as pressing Chi Juntao's head on the keyboard.

"Here you are." Chi Juntao put the teacup in front of Mu Xu.

"Thank you." Mu Xu said, "After reading it, I will mark the places that I think are not logical. Let's stop here today. What do you want to eat tonight?"

"How about we cook by ourselves?" Chi Juntao asked, "I found that I really like cooking."

"Yes, but there is no stock in the refrigerator." Mu Xu took a sip of tea.

"Then let's go to the supermarket to stock up first." Chi Juntao was eager to try.

Mu Xu buckled up the computer and put it on the desk: "Did you take the computer back?"

"No." Chi Juntao said.

"Let's go." Mu Xu stood up, went to the hanger and took off his coat.

Chi Juntao asked: "Do you wear suits all year round?"

"Almost." Mu Xu said.

"What should I do if it's too hot in summer?" Chi Juntao asked.

"There are air conditioners in the company and in the car." Mu Xu said.

"But there is no air conditioner outside." Chi Juntao said.

"Then don't go outside." Mu Xu said, he put on his coat and walked out of the office, "put away your excess curiosity."

"As you said, the first step for friends is to understand each other." Chi Juntao said.

Mu Xu said as he walked, "I regret it."

"Refused." Chi Juntao said.
