Chapter 57: The Obvious Plot

"Is my cousin going to enter the lab too?"

Ji Yiheng was seeking answers from Yan Yue, but he was actually looking at Tang Lin.

Tang Lin shuddered unconsciously, as if she was being stared at by something.

"No, I don't. It's Brother Cui who is going to study with me later."

Tang Lin didn't dare to say that she could get in, but others were not fools. Cui Hengyu obeyed Tang Lin's words. What Cui Hengyu knew was the same as what Tang Lin knew.

The key point is that it is agreed that resources will be shared, but obviously, some people do not intend to share.

Yan Yue just watched,

"Ah, I thought classmate Tang was so enthusiastic and wanted to be together, but it turns out that's not the case.

It's hard for Amu to fight for an extra spot. It turns out we misunderstood."

After Yan Yue finished speaking, he looked at Tang Lin with regret.

Just with this one glance, Tang Lin became anxious. She didn't want to miss this opportunity.

Even if there is someone, if it is yourself, what you know will be completely different, the focus will be different, and your understanding will also be different.

"Of course I want to learn, but I'm afraid I'll cause trouble for everyone."

Tang Lin expressed her thoughts.

"Since you know it will cause trouble, then don't cause trouble."

Ji Yimu refused outright.

Yan Yue almost died of laughter.

What's more annoying is his brother.

"Brother Ji, that's not what I meant."

I was just being polite, but it turned out to be causing more trouble.

"Your major is not even related to this field. You will only cause trouble if you go there.

It's rare that you have the self-awareness to take the initiative not to cause trouble."

The laboratory is now just an empty shell, and is used for fishing. You can bring as many people as you want in.

This is what they discussed over the past two days.

Only they and Mu Lin knew about it. Even Mu Lin’s three students didn’t know about it.

"Brother, I also want to study. You know, I have always been interested in Chinese medicine. If dad hadn't insisted that I study Western medicine..."

Ji Yiheng said it was difficult.

It seemed like he was just interested, but Ji Yimu knew that was not the case.

From the moment he was brought back, Ji Yimu knew how ambitious this man was.

It’s just that I don’t care about those things at all.

"This is Dean Mu's project, and I can't make a decision."

"Brother, I don't ask for the opportunity to study in the laboratory. I just want to have the opportunity to listen to you when you ask Dean Mu for advice in private. I just want to learn more."

Ji Yiheng knew how to take detours. As long as he could interact with them more, he could get information from just a few words, even if he just listened from the side.

This made Yan Yue look up to this man and think he had some ideas.

[Brother, your younger brother's rank is much higher than Tang Lin's.]

Yan Yue hooked his finger into Ji Yimu’s palm.

It turns out that people with the surname Ji have grown brains.

[He is more thoughtful than her. ]

"Brother, I know it's difficult for you, I just want to learn more secretly."

[He knows it's difficult but still speaks up. Look, the aroma of tea is everywhere. ]

Little Dumpling was humming on the side.

"You are the only one who is willing to help me now. If you are really in trouble, just pretend I didn't say anything."

Brothers are friendly and respectful to each other. Ji Yiheng's eyes are full of love when he looks at Ji Yimu.

【The abacus beads all bounced onto my face.】

The little dumpling snorted.

Ye Chenxu coughed lightly to cover it up for him.

[Brother, what does he want to do? ]

[If you want to know what he wants to do, just put him under your nose and you will know. ]

Ji Yimu's eyes were deep.

"Can."

"Um?"

"I said I could take you or the others with me."

Ji Yimu was answering Ji Yiheng's question, but he was looking at Qin Mu who was about to speak.

These people have ulterior motives written all over their faces. Do you really think they are blind?

[It's such an obvious trap, there's no way they would fall into it. ]

Yan Yue complained that no normal person could do that anyway.

I have personally slapped the abacus beads on other people's faces, clearly saying that I have dug a pit and am waiting for you to jump into it.

[Is there really someone who would go to a mountain of tigers even though he knows there are tigers there? ]

Ye Chenxu also thought it was unlikely.

Ji Yimu didn't say anything. He just made his thoughts clear. As for whether these people dared to do it or not, it was none of his business.

Now that they have been given the opportunity, whether they dare to fight for it or not is entirely up to them.

"Student Ji, can I do that too?"

Qin Mu looked at Ji Yimu. He thought he had to find another way to infiltrate them. Although he knew that Ji Yimu had bad intentions, so what?

When masters fight, it all depends on who has better skills and more meticulous thinking.

It is still unknown who will succeed.

Who can be content without giving it a try?

"Of course."

"Thank you so much, Ji. I will definitely benefit a lot from the guidance of President Mu."

Qin Mu would not be as stupid as Tang Lin. He would insist on saying polite words and waste the opportunity. If he could not seize the opportunity when it came, he would be incompetent.

"You're welcome. It's all for learning."

Why, who knows, who cares?

Anyway, it has been made clear, one more is too much, two more is the same,

Now it's just superficial business greetings.

[Is this possible? ]

This already exceeded Yan Yue's knowledge reserves, and he began to suspect that he had lived a lonely life in his previous life.

My own calculations are not good enough in front of these people.

[Once there is a proper profit, capitalists will become bold. With a 50% profit, they will take risks; with a 100% profit, they will dare to trample on all human laws; with a 300% profit, they will dare to commit any crime, even risking strangulation.]

[So the result is tempting enough. What can this little bit of calculation mean? Besides, they don’t think they are fools. It’s others who are stupid.]

Ji Yimu said quietly.

【……】

【……】

【……】

The other three looked at each other silently, so the person they least wanted to offend was Ji Yimu.

He is an obvious schemer and is so arrogant.

"Brother, I heard that Dean Mu allowed you to participate in the core research and development of his project, even his three students did not participate. He really thinks highly of you."

Ji Yiheng looked at Ji Yimu with eyes full of envy.

As for Yan Yue, Ji Yiheng didn't think he was better than Mu Lin's three students. After all, the survey results did not show any excellence in traditional Chinese medicine.

The reason why I was able to join the core research and development was definitely because of Ji Yimu.

"Of course, Yan must be very outstanding to be selected."

"I didn't expect that my cousin, who hasn't even transferred to Q University yet, is so concerned about what happens in school." What he knows is the same as what he sees himself.

There was more thoughtfulness in Ji Yimu's eyes as he stared at Ji Yiheng.

It is not known whether he was focusing on himself from the beginning or became more concerned about himself after focusing on the project.

No matter which one it is, it makes people concerned, and no one likes their private life to be paid attention to.

"Brother, don't misunderstand me. I'm also going to transfer to Q University next semester. I just talked a little more during our casual chat."

Ji Yiheng didn't feel embarrassed at all about being caught.

Anyway, as long as you don't break the window paper, nothing you say will be of any use.

“So that’s how it is.”

"No wonder the information is so different. Dean Mu just took care of me for my grandfather's sake, but the rumor spread like this. It's true that three people make a tiger."

Ji Yimu just says what you want, and I won’t admit it without evidence.

"So that's how it is. That's really a misunderstanding."

Ji Yiheng didn't get a definite answer from Ji Yimu and felt doubtful.

He couldn't be sure that when he returned, he would tell his family everything, so how it was taken away was not his concern.

"Then the rumor that Xiaoyan also entered the core research and development, could it be a false rumor?"

Qin Mu thought he knew Yan Yue very well, but he knew nothing about Chinese medicine, so naturally he believed it was a misunderstanding.

"Of course. I was able to enter the laboratory because of my boyfriend. I am a Western doctor and I have only just started Chinese medicine. What can I know?"

Yan Yue didn't even raise his eyes. Anyway, his image was that of a gigolo who relied on his boyfriend.

"Then let's study together in the future. We must not let down Ji's help."

Qin Mu looked at Yan Yue intently.

“…”

[It's so boring to listen to them chatting, when will it end? ]

Little Dumpling kept hinting crazily that it was good that he was left alone, but it was also really boring.

He almost made his wife's hands blanched.

[It should be soon. They have finished their work and got what they wanted. There is no need to continue.]

Ji Yimu replied.

Yan Yue really couldn't stand staying here and watching Qin Mu's hypocrisy, so he left the private room under the pretext of going to the bathroom.

After coming out of the bathroom, Yan Yue was not in a hurry to go back to the private room. He leaned directly against a maple tree in the courtyard.

He took out his cell phone and sent a message to Ji Yimu, telling him his location.

I thought that after it was over, I would ask people to come here to find me.

I was doing nothing, so I looked at the maple tree I was leaning against. I realized that it was the season when maple leaves were in full bloom, but the leaves of this tree were dry and curled, looking sick.

Yan Yue placed one hand on the tree trunk, and felt a faint coolness lingering between his palm and the trunk, and even a layer of green light shining.

Yan Yue thought he was seeing things and rubbed his eyes gently. When he looked again, the green light was still there, but not as bright as before. He was shocked. What was going on?

Yan Yue wasn't sure if he was sensing it wrong, but he felt that the maple tree was more alive after he touched it.

Although it was horrifying, having experienced so many bizarre things before, Yan Yue's face did not show any change in emotion.

For things that are completely beyond your knowledge, you naturally need to find someone who can help you.

In a case like this, it would be a good idea to find Xiaotuanzi.

Use your consciousness to summon the little dumpling.

While waiting, Yan Yue found that as time passed, the green light became dimmer and dimmer. Thinking that he would show it to Xiaotuanzi later, he withdrew his hand and continued to lean against the tree.

For those things I don’t understand, I can’t figure them out even if I rack my brains, so I just don’t think about them.

With a casual glance, I saw two people in a hidden corner.

He knew Qin Mu, Wu Yue, and Mu Lin's student.

Yan Yue now subconsciously scrutinized Mu Lin's students. After all, something happened to his senior brother when the semester was almost over, and now they still had no idea what happened.

Now seeing these two people together, Qin Mu approached with a purpose, and Wu Yue was the object of suspicion, so it was hard not to think too much.

No one knew what Wu Yue said that could make Qin Mu, who had always been a gentleman, lose his image and almost go berserk.

Yan Yue couldn't hear what they said, and didn't want to make any trouble, so he moved to another place and continued hiding.

Still leaning against the tree, thinking about something, she didn't notice that Qin Mu was already standing in front of her.

"Xiao Yan..."

"Um?"

Yan Yue looked up in confusion.

Just one glance, the innocent and cute look caught Qin Mu's eyes unexpectedly and hit his heart hard.

"Xiaoyan, do you really have to hide from me like this?"

“…”

Yan Yue thought carefully, when did he start avoiding him?

"I don't know what I did to make you angry. You insisted on cutting off ties with me. Can I apologize? Can you forgive me?"

Qin Mu looked at Yan Yue, passionately and sincerely.

If he had not experienced his previous life, Yan Yue felt that he would definitely be trapped.

But he has already paid the price for his mistakes, and now he is extremely sober.

Every time Qin Mu showed goodwill, he must have an ulterior motive.

"I'm not angry, and you don't have to apologize to me."

No one forced me to do those things. I didn't like someone because that person forced me to like him. I planted the seeds and reaped the fruits, good or bad, that's what I deserve. I can't blame others.

So he likes Qin Mu, and when he is hurt, he admits that

He also acknowledged this cause and effect.

So he is not angry, and does not need others to apologize, they are all right.

Liking someone may not necessarily lead to a response, and others are not obliged to respond.

"Are you still angry that I didn't accept your confession at that time?

I can really explain this. I was just shocked and didn’t react for a while. Later on, I felt that no matter what I said at the time, it would be misinterpreted by others, which would be worse for you, so I didn’t say anything. ”

Qin Mu explained seriously.

"If I had known you cared so much, I would have made it clear right away."

“That’s all in the past.”

For me, things that happened in my past life, I no longer cling to them.

"How can we get over it? We obviously like each other, how did it become like this?"

Qin Mu looked at Yan Yue as if he had lost his loved one.

Yan Yue couldn't help but admire Qin Mu, as he always found a way to pretend to be a victim.

How could he be the one who was actually hurt in this incident?

"But it's only been a short time, how come you don't like it anymore?"

"Love or not, it doesn't matter how long it takes. The change of feelings may only take a moment."

Some people can wake up in an instant, but some people won't turn back until they hit a wall.

It has taken me a lifetime to wake up, and that is enough.

"Have you ever really liked me?"

Qin Mu began to wonder, is there really someone like this? Does someone change their likes or dislikes so quickly?

He didn't believe it. Love is such a strong emotion, how could it just disappear?

"I once loved you, sincerely, passionately, and unreservedly. It's true.

But it’s also true that I don’t love you anymore.”

Love or not love, it is very clear and can be distinguished at a glance.

It’s just that some people always have selfish motives of one kind or another and don’t want to see the truth clearly.

"Do you really not like me anymore?"

"no longer."

Qin Mu looked at Yan Yue, as if he could see through him.
