"Do you know the organizer?" Bai Lu frowned.
"I know him, what's wrong?" Lu Chengxun noticed Bai Lu's displeasure.
Bai Lu pointed at the staff members who had just been there and said, "These people are not suitable for this position. Transfer them to other positions. Don't let them participate in important events or meetings in the future."
"Ah?" Lu Chengxun glanced at the people Bai Lu pointed at. "What did they do to you?"
Bai Lu didn't bother to answer and continued to ask, "Did you forget to tell me something?"
"No." Lu Chengxun was confused.
Bai Lu didn't ask any further. After all, Jiang Shiyuan dancing in front of her was just an eyesore, but it didn't really affect her mood. She just ignored her. After the event ended, they went their separate ways and no one bothered anyone else.
It was already ten o'clock when Bai Lu had filled her stomach. The formal meeting began. She followed Lu Chengxun into the conference room. Feeling extremely bored, she sat down next to Lu Chengxun, leaned back in her chair, and prepared to close her eyes and sleep.
Lu Chengxun tugged at her sleeve and said, "Don't fall asleep..."
"Just take a nap for a while." Bai Lu said vaguely.
Then, someone from the left back handed over an orange and said, "Little girl, eat the orange."
Bai Lu opened her eyes, turned around, and looked at the old lady she didn't know at all, with a confused look on her face, "You know me?"
The old lady nodded kindly, still holding the orange, "Eat it, this orange is very sweet."
Since coming to this era, Bai Lu has not eaten fruit for a while. Mainly because she has been in the South Island. It is very cold there. How can she eat fruit in winter?
He took the orange, peeled it, and started eating it.
Several young researchers sitting in the back were somewhat shocked and started discussing.
"The one in front with white hair and black clothes, is that Old Lady Meng?"
"That's the one...why did she give oranges to the girl in front?"
"Is this little girl pretty? Aren't all the people attending this seminar researchers? How did a little girl sneak in?"
"Didn't you see the person sitting next to her? Commander Lu from South Island. He's a well-known figure in South Island."
"Then I understand. We worked so hard and studied so hard, and only after achieving some results were we allowed to attend the seminar. But they can just come in directly because they have a brother named Teacher Lu..."
Bai Lu finished eating the oranges and her appetite was whetted. The snacks were delicious, but she was very tired so she drank a lot of tea. After all, tea and snacks are not a proper meal. It can be a snack, but she hasn't had any hot food since four in the morning, so she still feels hungry...
Bai Lu nudged Lu Chengxun, "Did you bring any food?"
Lu Chengxun: ...
Yesterday, he told the old researchers who wanted to take Bai Lu as their student and asked her what she liked, that she loved eating, and then he forgot about bringing food...
Bai Lu remembered that there were still two pancakes in the space that she had promised to give her. She reached into her pocket, took out one, and started to eat it.
Lu Chengxun: ...
"You're still taking sesame cakes out?!"
Bai Lu's mouth was so full that she nearly choked. After finally finishing and swallowing the pancake, she asked Lu Chengxun, "You don't have any food, but where's the water? Isn't there any water provided for the meeting?"
She put the orange peel in Lu Chengxun's hand and licked her lips which were a little dry after chewing the sesame cake. She should have known not to chew the sesame cake.
"Do you know who gave you the orange just now?" Lu Chengxun pinched his eyebrows.
"A kind old lady." Bai Lu explained.
"She is a very capable researcher in the Second Legion. She has made outstanding contributions in radio cracking and is known as the strict Mrs. Meng in the circle." Lu Chengxun intended to ignite Bai Lu's fighting spirit.
Bai Lu thought for a moment, "Will she still give me oranges?"
Lu Chengxun: ...Isn’t Bai Lu’s focus a bit off?
As Bai Lu finished speaking, another orange appeared on the side and she reached out to take it.
This time, Bai Lu smiled sweetly at the old lady and said politely, "Thank you, Grandma Meng, the oranges are indeed sweet!" Anyone who gives her food is a good person!
Old Mrs. Meng gave her another orange.
"Grandma Meng is so nice!"
Then, I got another orange.
Lu Chengxun: ...
These old guys who usually speak righteously really like Bai Lu...
No, not a little bit, I really like it.
In the end, Grandma Meng gave all the oranges to Bailu, seven in total.
Bai Lu peeled the orange peels into small pieces and gave them all to Lu Chengxun, then threw three into the space.
I don’t know where Grandma Meng bought the oranges. I must buy some and store them in my space when I leave Haicheng, so that I will have something to eat whenever I want to.
"Comrade Bai Lu!"
Bai Lu turned her head and saw an old man sitting on the left.
"Hello." She responded politely.
"Do you like lamb liver soup? I brought you some." The old man said, taking out a few from his pocket, and then continued to take out...
After taking it out, he held a handful of goat liver soup in front of Bai Lu. It looked like there were at least ten of them. "Eat it."
Bai Lu swallowed.
It's physiological. It's definitely not that she hasn't eaten good food before, it's just that there really isn't much good food these days! It's purely a physiological reaction! Today she ate oranges for the first time, and now she also has lamb liver soup.
Feeling a little embarrassed, Bai Lu took one.
"This is all for you," the old man gave all the lamb liver soup in his hand to Bai Lu, "Eat it slowly."
Bai Lu: ...
She looked at Lu Chengxun, a little confused about the situation.
Lu Chengxun smiled awkwardly, but he was actually panicking. These old people wouldn't poach people from Nandao, would they? He had even thought about asking Bai Lu to secure funding for Nandao, but he forgot that these old researchers were all people who valued talent. What if they offered better conditions to poach people? Where would he go to complain?
"Maybe the elderly think you are young and need to grow." Lu Chengxun explained evasively.
"Jun Jing lied to me the same way back then, and then he still wanted my body, didn't he?"
Lu Chengxun: ...
Oh my god, are they talking about the same thing? And! Is this something that can be said directly?
"Do you think I'm popular with the elderly, the kind that both grandmas and grandpas like me very much." Bai Lu twitched her eyebrows.
Lu Chengxun knew the truth but didn't dare to say it. He followed Bai Lu's words and said, "I think it's possible."
However.
The young researchers behind started to feel jealous again.
"Is the guy sitting to the girl's left Qian Laoyao, the father of rockets? Our leader said he doesn't want to come this time."
"Is the news not good? This time there's a mysterious researcher coming, and these veteran researchers are all here for the mysterious person!"
"Is this true? What does the mysterious man do?"
Bai Lu had very good hearing and was always listening to gossip. When she heard that the person sitting on her left was Mr. Qian, the father of rockets, and that the old man was giving her mutton liver soup, she thought that the mutton liver soup was really precious, but she was absolutely reluctant to return it to Mr. Qian.
When the host at the conference podium began to speak, Bai Lu fell asleep with her head tilted.
