Chapter 338: Old Lover

Next, in the entire conference room, there were only Luca, Catherine and Xu Le. There were also two secretaries, both of whom were called out.

Looking at the conference room with only the three of them, Xu Le had an ominous omen. These two guys seem to want to come up with something they can't do on their own.

It can be seen from their desire to stop talking and the smile on their faces that their words are far more than a contract.

"Xu Le, you used to be a student in the history department. Why do you suddenly want to develop in medicine? I heard that the development of the history department is no worse than that of medicine!" Luca changed his previous seriousness, and a smile appeared on his face. His hooked nose no longer looked so mean because of this smile.

"Because of the dream..."Xu Le glanced at Luca, rubbed his hands against each other, hesitated for a moment, and asked directly, "Mr. Luca, I hope we can say everything clearly, don't test each other here, say some polite words, what do you think?"

He was tired of repeating it over and over again, and he believed that so did Luca.

Tempting each other is no longer an unwritten rule that they are willing to abide by.

"Okay, I'll tell you the truth. Although our group seems to be very powerful, recently, other groups have poached several of our powerful pharmacists, and we are actually very short of people here, so we will hold the competition. This time, we do want to work with you to make you more famous, but at the same time, we hope you can help us too. Lukka looked at Xu Le deeply.

Xu Le understood the previous words and agreed with them, but the last sentence made him dumbfounded, he frowned, and looked at Luca curiously, "What can I help you? If it's just a simple research and invention, it should be mutual assistance and reciprocity, right?"

He knew that this thing was not as simple as he thought! Otherwise, this system would not have made him a task.

"Okay, I like you to be more direct, let's help each other, don't test each other, it's boring, actually, we also have a competition here, which is about potions. Luca sighed deeply, "It's going to be this tournament every year. Because we used to have a lot of pharmacists, we didn't look at it. But this time, he pulled all of our awesome pharmacists over. We don't have any great people, so we can only look for them in the game and hope they can be used by me. Moreover, this time, there are 1 million US dollars. ”

Xu Le nodded, and now he understood why Catherine seemed so anxious. And this competition, compared with the previous calm and calm, completely lost the elegance revealed in the bones.

"This... I still have to think about it, after all, there are many things that we need to think about before we take action, and it is more prudent. Xu Le thought about it, but decided to wait a few days before politely refusing.

There is no need for him to cause himself to have one more enemy for this petty profit.

The events of the past few months have made him determined that as long as he can not make enemies with the other party, he will try to avoid it.

"Of course, I want to tell you that this million dollars will not belong to your laboratory, only to you, I have already discussed this with your Mr. Gongsun, and we will continue to cooperate for a year, this year I will cooperate with you to make you more famous. Luca is an old fox, of course he heard the meaning of Xu Le's words, and hurriedly said all the conditions.

"A million dollars in metal for me alone?" Xu Le opened his mouth, a little incredulous. If so, then the conditions are tempting enough.

"That's right, it belongs to you, don't worry, I mainly want a reputation, and we have a downbeat on money. Lukka nodded, they sometimes make so much money in a month, so why bother talking about this million dollars.

Xu Le was no longer as determined as before, and his heart began to be full of hesitation, he thought of the main task arranged by the Galaxy System, gritted his teeth, and agreed.

Normally, three hundred points should not be too dangerous a task, and besides, this is one million dollars, enough for him to buy a small villa on the outskirts of Beihai City.

In addition, he also hoped that Li Lao would see that there was nothing unworthy of Li Qiuyue.

"Okay, I hope we have a good time working together. Lukka stretched out his hand and faced Xu Le, he rarely showed a smile, his blue eyes were not as cloudy as before.

"Thank you, Xu Le, you really helped us a lot. Catherine was also excited, and her face was flushed with excitement.

"I can't really understand why you're doing this because your medical skills are definitely not below me. You can choose to participate in the competition?" Xu Le always felt that there were many doubts here.

Catherine smiled wryly, "You don't know, there is a rule in this competition, you can't be a member of the family. ”

She went abroad for so long before, and learned a lot of partial knowledge about medicine, just to stand out in the competition, where did she think that when she returned to China after completing her studies, the rules of the competition gradually changed, and he was not qualified to participate.

"This is too unfair, since it is a competition, as long as the capable people go up, shouldn't they all be?" Xu Le held grievances for them. "If it's so unfair, why don't you react?"

He believes that with their influence, there can still be some response.

"It's not that we don't react, it's just that the eldest son of the other party is better than me. A wry smile broke out at the corner of Catherine's mouth, "I didn't expect it, I also thought that I was the best." If I react, we play, or I lose. ”

Xu Le held his chin in his hand, and dense sweat appeared on his forehead, and he began to regret agreeing. Since the other party is more powerful than Catherine, there is no doubt that he can't compare to the other party. If you want to fight each other, you still have to ask the Galaxy system for help.

"What? Are you scared?" Catherine couldn't help but ask, noticing Xu Le's pale face.

"That's right, I can't even compare to you, you want me to compete, of course I'm under a lot of psychological pressure. Xu Le nodded, not intending to hide his anxiety.

Catherine grabbed Xu Le's shoulder, didn't say anything, looked at it for a while, then put down her hand, took out her mobile phone, and showed Xu Le a video.

"Catherine, I have to tell you the truth, when it comes to potion research, you really can't compare to Xu Le. Although you are very good, but Xu Le..."The words of one of the experts who were sitting in the back at that time reached Xu Le's ears, and the whole paragraph was praising him.

"I just wanted to tell you that you're really a lot better than you think. Catherine grabbed Xu Le by the collar, and leaned her face very close to Xu Le.

Xu Le faced those blue eyes, a little embarrassed to look over, he swallowed, "I believe in myself, thank you for telling me so much." ”

Catherine slowly let go of Xu Le, kept a certain distance, and the two talked about their respective childhoods.

Xu Le was just about to talk about his past, when he suddenly remembered something, and snapped his fingers, "Catherine, there is one thing that you haven't told me yet!"

"I know, my master, yes. No problem, wait until tomorrow, I will take you to see, the competition will be held in three days, even if you don't say, I will take you to meet my master. Catherine sighed, "However, my master is very fierce, and I hope you can tolerate him." ”

"No problem, as long as I can learn something, it's okay to be fierce. Xu Le doesn't take this seriously, anyway, he is not unfamiliar with vicious people. Before he met the galaxy system, when he was working, he often encountered fierce people, and although he wanted to resist at that time, he thought of Xu Nan and endured it every time.

Who would have thought that that bad girl would actually bring herself a green hat!

They went to a restaurant, tasted the food, went to the bar, listened to a singer sing on the guitar, ordered a cocktail, and went on a date-like trip.

"Isn't it nice here?" said Catherine, looking around, her face full of comfort.

"That's right, it's an elegant environment and the singing is beautiful. Xu Le nodded, satisfied. Honestly, it's a rare place he feels good.

"Yes, I was looking for a place for you, just to find a place that suits you, so that you will be happy. Catherine looked at Xu Le and said softly, "Until now, I'm still curious, why are you so good in a history department, and I, who grew up in this environment since I was a child, can't compare to you!"

Xu Le was just about to say something, but suddenly heard a voice behind him, "Yo, isn't this Miss Catherine of the Lucca Group?"

He turned around and saw a blond man dressed in a suit standing in front of him, followed by several people, all of whom were dressed in fancy clothes, and it was obvious that they were all rich people.

This guy has a smile on his face, but unfortunately it's not the friendly one, and his tone is also yin and yang.

"Let's go. Catherine barely looked back, pulled Xu Le, and prepared to leave here.

Xu Le looked at Catherine, frowned, and said softly, "Who is this?

Looking at Catherine's expression, she should have a relationship with this man, otherwise, such a generous person would not avoid a man like this.

"Don't say it, let's leave first, and I'll tell you everything then. Catherine let out a long sigh and almost pushed Xu Le forward.

"Oh, Miss, what do you mean, wow, why do you run away when you see me?am I a monster?I didn't do anything to you, did I?" the blond man laughed and pointed at Catherine.

"You can't blame him, she liked you so much before, but you rejected her, didn't she run away before seeing you?"

The rest of the boys laughed as they gathered together as if they were about to surround Catherine.
