Chapter 407 A familiar person
He moved.
Gu Nan thought he would finally look up, but no, he just lowered his hat again.
Just when Gu Nan was about to start doubting his purpose for coming to Qingcheng, he spoke, "Sister."
Gu Nan was stunned.
It was a somewhat childish voice with a very special tone, carrying the crispness of a teenager, with clear pronunciation and neither hurried nor slow. It was very pleasant to the ears and had an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
Gu Nan couldn't help but sit up straight and listen carefully.
He was a little nervous, or perhaps thinking, and his hands on his knees were slightly bent. He paused before saying, "Sister, have you ever lost yourself in that world?"
"No." Gu Nan replied.
"Why?"
"Because I know that's not my home. I want to go home."
"What if you're not happy at home?" he asked.
Gu Nan thought for a moment before carefully replying, "I don't know what kind of unhappiness you're talking about, or what degree of unhappiness you're talking about, but I don't think it's any more miserable than being there."
"That world is very dangerous. Violence and death are the main themes of development. There is chaos and order, no human rights, and no humanity."
He shrugged, as if frightened by Gu Nan's description. "Life there is miserable."
Gu Nan said affirmatively: "Yes."
As soon as he finished speaking, he buried his head even deeper. In the dim light, huge tears fell from the brim of his hat, leaving two obvious watermarks on his gray casual pants.
Gu Nan was a little surprised and turned to look at Yi Jingrong inquiringly.
Yi Jingrong sighed, looking both distressed and troubled.
He cried violently, and his tears kept falling like beads from a broken string. Gu Nan, who was sitting opposite him, could hear the sound of the tears falling.
The more he cried, the lower his head he buried, and finally he bent over and curled up into a ball crying.
Gu Nan didn't know what kind of sadness he was going through, but he felt a little bit sorry when he saw this.
Were there no elders left in his family? What difficulties had his family encountered, forcing him to put his studies on hold and follow Yi Jingrong all the way to Qingcheng to inquire about the news?
It is too hard and too heavy for an underage child to carry the burden of the future and relatives on his thin shoulders at the same time.
Gu Nan and Yi Jingrong didn't say anything, waiting quietly for him to calm down.
After a long time, he stood up, ignoring the mask on his face that was wet with tears, and asked Gu Nan: "Sister, do you believe in love?"
Two years ago, single Gu Nan would have scoffed at this question and laughed at the questioner, but now, Gu Nan nodded and said, "I believe it."
He stood up and leaned slightly towards Gu Nan, "Thank you, sister."
"You're welcome."
Seeing this, Yi Jingrong also stood up and whispered something to him. He nodded, and Yi Jingrong breathed a sigh of relief, as if he had made a decision. "Okay, let's do this."
He came suddenly and left in a hurry. Yi Jingrong said goodbye to Gu Nan before he even finished his tea.
Gu Nan sent the person to the door. Yi Jingrong called a taxi on her phone and chatted with Gu Nan while waiting for the taxi. When she heard Gu Nan said that he wanted to continue his studies, she expressed her support and even enthusiastically extended an olive branch to Gu Nan:
"Tianguang is particularly in need of senior algorithm engineers and programmers. Whether you want to pursue research or application in the future, you can come to me."
Gu Nan just thought she was being polite and agreed immediately, "Okay, I'm also very interested in the core algorithm of the skylight simulation system."
The Awakening Project is a long-term major project. After its success, the project will not be stopped immediately. It will only continue to broaden the research scope and refine the branches for further research. It is no exaggeration to say that this project will be difficult to reach the end in the next 35 years.
Yi Jingrong admired Gu Nan very much and hoped that she could study in depth. He immediately shared some courseware and papers from industry experts that he was familiar with and pointed out a general direction for her study.
Gu Nan was overjoyed and opened his phone to take notes.
Finally, Yi Jingrong simply said, "Let's add each other's contact information so that it will be convenient to contact each other if anything happens in the future."
Of course Gu Nan would not refuse. Yi Jingrong was the general manager and research team leader of such a big project. Any little thing she let slip through her fingers would allow her to learn for a long time.
Moreover, Gu Nan found that Yi Jingrong was a very down-to-earth person. His words were meaningful and he did not pretend to be profound. During the short ten minutes of waiting time, Gu Nan and Yi Jingrong had a very pleasant conversation.
During this time, the boy stood quietly behind Yi Jingrong, with his head lowered, as silent as when he came.
Gu Nan didn't pay attention to him until the taxi arrived and he turned to get in. Then Gu Nan saw the pair of eyes that had been hidden by the brim of the hat for a long time in a quick glance.
A pair of familiar, slightly narrow fox eyes.
The tail of her eyes is slightly upturned, and her long and thick eyelashes hang down, covering a pair of amber pupils.
Clear, yet melancholy, like a cup of cold old tea, filled with sorrow that shouldn't appear at his age.
For a moment, Gu Nan seemed to have seen Lin Jingzhe.
She wanted to say something, but before she could, the car door closed and he lowered his head again, pressing down the brim of his hat.
"Goodbye." Yi Jingrong said.
Gu Nan ignored her and only stared at the figure in the passenger seat with his head lowered. It was not until the taxi gradually drove away that she realized she had been distracted. Belatedly, she replied, "Goodbye."
