Chapter 351 Human Spirit
Chapter 351 Human Spirit
"Can you hide behind someone when you say bad things about them? It would make me feel uncomfortable if I heard it, okay?" Lin Jing said with a smile.
"You haven't started school yet?" Xu Mingyuan asked.
"It's open. I'm on vacation and staying at school for a while. I'm back to help my family. I'll go back in a few days." Lin Jing's eyes were not on Xu Mingyuan, but on the pretty girl next to him. Then she pouted at him and said, "You're good. I saw Tao Tao two days ago and heard that you two were still together. Are you changing people now?"
"My sister." Xu Mingyuan said casually.
"Your sister?"
Lin Jing was so shrewd that she was about to fall apart. Looking at the two people behaving intimately, her face was full of question marks.
"Is it beautiful?"
"Well, she's pretty, but it's not your Xu family's genes. You're far inferior to her. You're so ugly that you can't even be flattered."
"My brother is not ugly, he is very handsome..."
Before Xu Mingyuan could speak, Yang Zhi frowned and spoke in a low voice.
"Hahaha..." Lin Jing looked at Xu Mingyuan with a smug smile and continued, "Little sister, what's your name? How old are you this year? Almost twenty, right?"
"Yeah, almost."
Yang Zhi responded and glanced at Xu Mingyuan, indicating that she was no longer young, as if to say: Look, others can see it.
"Giggle..."
Now Lin Jing smiled even more happily.
The more immature a person is, the more he wants to appear mature.
The little girl in front of him looked a little timid and shy, and was obviously not used to dressing maturely, but she wore leather boots and tied her hair up.
When she looked at Xu Mingyuan again, her eyes seemed to be dripping with tears.
If it was just a suspicion just now, then Lin Jing has now confirmed most of it.
These two people are so weird, there is definitely something fishy going on.
"I won't disturb you from reading. Goodbye."
After Xu Mingyuan finished speaking, he took Xiao Yangzhi and left.
"Hey, hey, hey! Goodbye! Long time no see, let's chat for a while! Wait a minute, you haven't weighed the melon seeds yet, I'll pack you a bag of freshly roasted ones..."
This is the thing that gives Lin Jing a headache when talking to Xu Mingyuan. He will turn the table over and refuse to talk if he disagrees with something.
Lin Jing stopped playing tricks now and quickly chased after him, turning back to shout to her mother that she would not be watching the store for the time being.
I randomly found a small restaurant nearby. There was no quiet seat in the restaurant. It was just a simple private room blocked by plasterboard and curtains.
Yang Zhi carried the kettle to heat the dishes and chopsticks. After helping Xu Mingyuan, she started to heat her own.
After washing the dishes for both of them, Yang Zhi paused with her hand holding the kettle, not knowing whether she should go to help the woman opposite. But without much hesitation, Xu Mingyuan took the kettle and put it aside.
"Rich families are very particular. I come from a small family with a small courtyard and don't even clean the food when I eat in the cafeteria." Lin Jing said with a smile.
"Why do you have so much to say? If you want to eat, eat. If you don't want to eat, just stay away." Xu Mingyuan said.
Little Yangzhi just had nothing to do, so she showed her thoughtfulness in this way.
It was the same at home. When I had nothing to do while eating oranges, I would pinch the meridians on them. Only when the oranges were warm would I give them to Xu Mingyuan to eat.
"Eat, I've chased you here, can't we have a meal together? You're a big boss, why don't you treat people to a big restaurant?"
"Can't eat in a small restaurant?"
"Yes, of course. I can't afford to eat at this small restaurant every day." Lin Jing said with a chuckle.
"By the way, why are you still wearing these broken glasses? Didn't you get a new pair?"
Xu Mingyuan glanced at Lin Jing's big black-framed glasses, which still looked very rustic. When she was looking after the store, she was wearing an orange cotton coat with red flower sleeves, which made her look even more rustic.
But her temperament has improved a lot, she is more mature than when she was in high school, and her every move is less deliberate, as if it comes from her bones.
"They are not easily damaged. The original ones are still the best. Hey, my left eye is 450, my right eye is 570, and I have 120 astigmatism. Did you write it down? If you like, you can choose a pair of glasses for me."
Lin Jing's eyelashes fluttered and she threw him two seductive glances.
"Go play somewhere else." "What are you doing? Are you not happy with me today? I just didn't have time to dress up because I was chasing you. How about I go back and change clothes now?"
"Then you go back."
"Then forget it. What if you run away and leave me to pay the bill?"
Lin Jing poured herself a cup of tea out of boredom, blew away the foam on top, and took a sip.
The small restaurant also served home-cooked dishes. Scrambled eggs with leeks and stir-fried tofu were served quickly. As many people came to eat at noon, the beef in sour soup and stir-fried kidney were served a little late.
Smart people don't need to speak in a roundabout way when communicating, but Lin Jing has long been accustomed to it, and sometimes she can't help but say it subconsciously.
However, when Lin Jing teased Xu Mingyuan just now, he didn't get angry, but when she tested Xiao Yangzhi a little, he reacted.
In order to have a full meal in peace, Lin Jing put her thoughts aside.
Lin Jing studied science, but she was also good at liberal arts. Seeing that Xiao Yangzhi had nothing to talk about, she asked about her homework.
Although Lin Jing was very patient, Yang Zhi was unwilling to talk more. She felt a little inferior in front of people who studied much better than her.
"Yang Zhi, your skin is so good, you don't look like a high school student at all. Unlike me, I've been resting for almost a month, but my complexion is still so bad."
Seeing that Xiao Yangzhi didn't want to talk about studying, Lin Jing changed the topic to her strengths.
"well enough."
Yang Zhi glanced at her and said calmly.
"She just looks old and has aged prematurely," said Xu Mingyuan.
"Hey! Just say it, you have such a sharp tongue. It's too much to say that I look old." Lin Jing said speechlessly.
"It's just work." Xu Mingyuan picked up a piece of beef for Xiao Yangzhi and said, "Eat more meat. You won't feel cold after walking around outside."
"Oh, your brother treats you much better than Taotao." Lin Jing said as if very surprised.
"Ah."
Yang Zhi nodded vigorously and even took two mouthfuls of rice. She felt that the rice in her mouth tasted delicious.
Xu Mingyuan glanced at her and frowned.
"Xu Mingyuan, am I really that old? Many people say that I am at my most beautiful age after 30." Lin Jing said with a sigh.
"Haha, maybe."
"Hey, Boss Xu, can I come to your company for an internship after graduation? Since we know each other so well, can you give me an offer? Many companies are vying for top students like me."
Lin Jing smiled faintly, and it was unclear whether she was joking or not.
"Impossible, I will ask the HR department to blacklist you and never hire you again." Xu Mingyuan raised his head and said.
"Oh my god! You rejected me so straightforwardly? I'm not that bad, am I?"
Seeing Xu Mingyuan speaking in a serious tone, Lin Jing felt both amused and confused.
"I'm not kidding you. You are too smart. Being too smart will make you appear utilitarian." Xu Mingyuan said lightly.
"Isn't it good to be more utilitarian? Who isn't utilitarian in this society?" Lin Jing said indifferently.
"Haha, I'm not as utilitarian as you, and there are countless people in the world who are not as utilitarian. You are too utilitarian, which may easily lead to vicious competition within the company. If you can work in my competitor's company, I will definitely celebrate with drums and gongs." Xu Mingyuan said in a flat tone.
"Is it that exaggerated?" Lin Jing was both angry and amused. She gritted her teeth and said, "Then I must work for your rival company and make it bigger and stronger! I will ruin your company!"
"Ha, okay, then I hope you can become the general manager and CEO as soon as possible, and bring my company down sooner rather than later."
Xu Mingyuan smiled and didn't take it seriously. Even if he was a top student from Peking University or Tsinghua University, how could he easily become a company manager? Without any tricks, he still had to climb up step by step.
"Forget it. There's no point in competing with you. It's too damaging to one's self-esteem. I'd better wish you to become bigger and stronger. Maybe you'll be kind enough to give me some soup."
Lin Jing shook her head, scooped a spoonful of sour soup, drank it with a sizzling sound, and deliberately gave a coquettish look.
This person, even though he has grown a few years older, the nature of a little fox is still deeply rooted in his bones and cannot be changed.
