After the two "guests" left, Qi Yanxin looked at Xu Zhi and seemed to be hesitant to speak. She probably heard clearly that the two men came here to recruit Xu Zhi. Although she didn't know more about the inside story, she thought that it would not be long before Xiao Zhi would leave here?
Although Xu Zhi once said that he would try his best to take her with him, Qi Yanxin has truly understood in these days that she is now just a "burden". She even wondered whether she should take the initiative to propose not to leave with Xu Zhi to avoid adding burden to Xu Zhi?
But I can't do it.
Now Xu Zhi is her only spiritual support to survive. Even though there is a voice in her heart telling her that maybe she should not follow Xu Zhi and that she will only cause trouble to him, when she really wants to say goodbye, she can't open her mouth no matter what. She even hopes that even if she is a burden now, Xu Zhi will not just abandon her.
This is really despicable.
Xu Zhi, who was standing by, noticed that something was wrong with Qi Yanxin's mood. She moved closer to Qi Yanxin, and although her face was calm, she asked with a slightly concerned tone, "What's wrong? Are you unhappy?"
Qi Yanxin raised his eyes and looked at this "sister", his eyes flickered slightly, and he struggled for a long time in his heart. Finally, he said: "I'm sorry, Xiaozhi, I seem to be too despicable."
"But could you please not leave me?"
There was a brief period of time when Xu Zhi might not be able to survive without her, but that period did not last long. Now the situation has reversed, and she has become the one who might not be able to survive if he left.
In fact, even if Xu Zhi left, Qi Yanxin could just go back to his previous life and continue to live numbly, but that kind of life was too terrible, like a dark corridor with no end in sight, where people were crawling with difficulty. Physical fatigue was not the most terrible thing. The most terrible thing was the loss of will.
She could no longer go back to that life.
Seeing Qi Yanxin's sad expression and slightly humble tone, Xu Zhi was speechless for a moment. She then realized that perhaps she did care about Qi Yanxin, but that concern was so weak that she didn't even realize that there might be a big problem with Qi Yanxin's psychology.
She could see that Qi Yanxin was sick and abnormal at the moment, but Xu Zhi was not a psychologist, nor did he know how to comfort people. However, there was a good solution at the moment.
Xu Zhi nodded: "I will take you with me. I can't cook, and you even fold the quilt yourself. If you don't come with me, what should I do?"
It doesn't really matter. The upper class will have a more convenient life. At the very least, she will do it herself. But right now, Xu Zhi feels that Qi Yanxin needs a reason why "he can't leave her for the time being."
Sure enough, after Xu Zhi finished speaking, Qi Yanxin's originally frightened expression gradually calmed down, and he returned to his usual gentle self.
This fake sisterly relationship has been unusual since the beginning, and now it is even slightly distorted. Xu Zhi can notice it but doesn't care much. After all, she has never experienced any normal family relationship. Isn't it good like this right now?
"Have you decided which one to choose, Xiaozhi?"
"Yeah, which one should I choose?" Xu Zhi sighed.
Neither is a good choice.
At first glance, it seems that the consortium is a relatively good choice, but in Xu Zhi's opinion, the consortium is the most hypocritical one among them.
They spoke of sincerity and honesty, but when it came to what Xu Zhi was going to do, they only vaguely said "some small contributions". The consortium was indeed generous, but would capitalists really just give without asking for anything in return?
The more generous you are, the bigger your ambition.
The more you give her, the more she will try to squeeze out of her.
If he wasn't forced to do so, Xu Zhi really didn't want to choose the consortium, which seemed like a good cake.
As for the Tianxin Society, it is something Xu Zhi wants to avoid. In fact, according to the given conditions, as long as she can pass the "inspection" of the Tianxin Society, this will be the best choice in the future. Unfortunately, Xu Zhi's identity is really tricky. Although she often takes risks, she can also distinguish what dangers are best not to get involved with.
As for the lifetime tenure at Guangming Academy, it is not a contract written in black and white, but there is no way to get rid of it.
It seems that the only choice is the organization behind the doctor and Guangmingyuan?
"So, not only is the council late, but they're also blaming us first?"
In the largest tent, the people sitting at the round table were no longer the officers, but several "big shots" from the upper class area.
Sitting in the center is a man in a platinum uniform, who is obviously being attacked at the moment.
"Late? I remember the Council clearly sent a message. I arrived at the agreed time, so I'm not late. But everyone, you ignored the Council's order and completed the final examination of the body before I arrived. Isn't this a bit disrespectful to the Council?"
"If we hadn't arrived in time and reported the test results early, and concealed some information that shouldn't be known, I'm afraid the city would be in turmoil by now. Instead of thanking us, the council would still be blaming us."
After several verbal battles, no one got any advantage.
"We can now confirm that this person picked up the knife purely by chance, and there's no organization or person behind it. There are currently no other extraordinary people in the plains area besides him. The news has been suppressed, and other cities won't know about it for the time being. If any news leaks out, everyone present should be careful."
The one who spoke was Chi Qiusheng, a low-ranking military officer, who somehow was able to sit at the same table with these people and even speak in front of the members of the House of Lords.
"The most urgent task now is to confirm where this knife came from and who made it."
After she said this, she looked at the man with a heavy hammer tattooed on his sleeve.
"I've inspected it, and the craftsmanship of this knife is quite neat."
"It doesn't look like the work of a human, but more like mechanical craftsmanship. It has no personal touch or style, just a formulaic horizontal sword."
"The material used for forging is very special. I haven't found it in any known material. It appears to be wood, but it's not ordinary wood. If it's the roots of an extraordinary plant, it doesn't look like it."
As he was speaking, he seemed to have strayed from the topic. Someone said, "So you guys at Gods Heavy Industry can't figure out the origins of this knife?"
"Of course not!" the man objected vigorously.
"Any artifact that enters the furnace can be traced back to its origin. I only need to bring this knife back and we can find out the truth!"
"Why should we let you take it back? There are more things that can be traced back to their origins than just the furnace!" someone objected.
The noise started again, and finally, the congressman sitting in the center of the round table made the final decision.
"Alright, time is running out. Tiyet is already making preparations. Results should be available within 12 hours. Before then, he'll take the items to the furnace to investigate the source."
When they heard the word "Tiet", everyone suddenly became quiet.
I didn't feel right the past two days because I've always had a little anemia, but it was very mild so I didn't pay much attention to it. But the past two days I felt something was wrong, so I went for a checkup today. I checked my blood routine and saw that my hemoglobin concentration was 80. My heart sank. How did the mild condition turn into a moderate one? The doctor prescribed me two weeks of medicine and told me to take it first and come back for a checkup in two weeks. I hope I'm fine. (
