As their eyes met, an awkward memory slowly flooded Jian Zhizhen's mind.
The Qin family and the Jian family originally lived in the same area; the two families were not only neighbors but also good friends.
Later, because of my brother's situation, my parents moved to the countryside.
She and Qin Yubai were also forced to separate, but they could still meet during the winter and summer vacations every year.
That was during her winter vacation when she was 10 years old, and Qin Yubai was 12.
Qin Yubai stayed at her house to help her with her homework.
The heating in the house was broken, and her hands were so cold they hurt. She put her hands directly inside Qin Yubai's clothes.
It wasn't that she was too lazy to turn on the air conditioner; she just wanted to touch him.
Qin Yubai was very handsome back then, and she couldn't help but want to get closer to him.
Although Qin Yubai did not remove her hand, he sternly lectured her: "Doing this is hooliganism."
After that, Jian Zhizhen dared not act recklessly.
Let's return to the present.
This time, he pulled her hand and pressed it against him... so it can't be considered her being a pervert, right?
After a long pause, Qin Yubai, with a calm expression, quietly asked, "How does it feel?"
Jian Zhizhen snapped out of her shock. Seeing that he wasn't embarrassed at all, she pretended to be normal and said, "A firm yet soft touch."
He then added, "It's harder than when you were a kid."
Qin Yubai: "..." That goes without saying.
[What awful dialogue? My boyfriend knocked on the door and asked if I was watching an R-18 movie, the kind that goes from underage to adult.]
[Hopefully, the next thing you'll understand instantly is advanced mathematics [candle emoji].]
[Those who stay up late definitely get a late-night perk, haha, I'm totally smitten!]
[But judging from their behavior, it seems Qin Yubai isn't Jian Zhizhen's biological brother? And Director Lin couldn't possibly be her brother, so who is her brother? Ahhh, I definitely won't be able to sleep tonight until I figure this out!]
Jian Zhizhen withdrew his hand, picked up the nail on the table, and silently squatted down to complete the robot's last process.
This time, she not only changed the appearance, but also made the robot more sophisticated. It will not move when it encounters a person, but will only move when it encounters a large rat.
After they finished, the two went upstairs together to their room to sleep.
Qin Yubai was extremely sleepy, but when he lay down on the bed again, he couldn't fall asleep.
He also silently placed his hand on his abdomen, as if he could still feel the lingering warmth of Jian Zhizhen's palm.
He thought they could be friends for life.
But... what kind of friend is that?
...
Zhou Sui was also awake on the bed next to his.
He's used to writing late at night, and even when he's tired from recording shows, he still insists on writing some.
He actually dislikes writing rebellious works that flaunt individuality or are just pointless whining.
He likes to write about domineering CEOs.
However, his editor told him that men who write about domineering CEOs are looked down upon, and that in the current book market, only novels like "I Don't" sell well. They even put his book in tourist attractions, and many people buy it as a souvenir.
However, while he outwardly yielded to the market, he did not actually do so.
He created a pseudonym and secretly wrote about domineering CEOs, and the response was quite good.
He's currently thinking about topics for his new book.
After racking my brains to no avail, I decided to draw inspiration from my surroundings.
Turning around, I saw Qin Yubai deep in thought.
Thinking about how Qin Yubai had been intentionally or unintentionally protecting Jian Zhizhen these past two days, he suddenly had an idea.
Zhou Sui silently typed out the title of his new book: "The Domineering Young Master Qin's Fierce Love".
...
The next day.
Just like yesterday, everyone went to their work posts and began to earn production value.
Following yesterday's approach, Jian Zhizhen modified the cabbage speaker.
She had planned that after purchasing the software, she would return to the production line and install an automated quality inspection gate for everyone.
But unexpectedly, something went wrong today...
Today, the production value the counter assigned her was only one-third of the data from the first day.
She carefully examined the counter rules and discovered a clause stating that inventing something that doesn't currently exist yields high production value. Modifications and updates based on this invention only grant 30-40% of the production value.
She said to Qin Yubai with some disappointment, "Bai Bai, it seems that our invention won't be able to maintain a high income for long, and it will get lower and lower in the future."
Qin Yubai walked beside her and nodded silently: "Yes, this can't go on like this. The most important thing is to find a way to establish a connection with our spacetime."
Jian Zhizhen said regretfully, "G invited me this year, but I declined and was unable to participate in the research of the new generation of conduction devices. Otherwise, we could be working together to find a solution now."
The previously quiet comment section instantly became lively:
Holy crap! G! Has anyone heard of this legendary company?
[科普:G公司,正名在基建建设公司,虽注册信息对建公司,其实是研究公司,有200年。,对时间空科技,他们创新的。他们不公开招聘,外人不找发现的基地。他们年年出上引引以世界的顶优秀研究天才。]
[In short: It's the Hogwarts of the scientific world.]
[In short: My god Qin is truly amazing! He's a member of G at such a young age!]
[In short: Jian Zhizhen is also very capable and received an invitation, but she declined!]
“I have a basic idea, but I need a lot more money.” He turned to look at Jian Zhizhen. “You can make money with me.”
Jian Zhizhen met his gaze and nodded with a smile: "Yes! I know how to make money."
The technological level in this parallel universe is roughly the same as that in China in 2023.
