But many times Qi Min is still quite cute.

As she thought she was, she was a serious and lively Bolshevik. Although Anton felt that she was wrong everywhere when they lived together at first, he gradually realized that Qi Min was just weak in empathy, and he didn't realize what he had to say about her.

It's actually a bit weird. Qi Min, as a face control, especially likes to stare at Anton, making him think that she is reading his expression, but in fact, Qi Min is just staring, and any emotional signals he expresses are filtered by her.

Qi Min also knows that his empathy ability is not good, and he makes up for it with later training, and he can also feel the same for general emotional expression. However, because of his good empathy ability, Anton was used to restricting his emotional expression before, so that in Qi Min's opinion, he was as calm as water all the time, and he couldn't see the emotional changes at all.

Therefore, Anton had to adapt, and when he was with Qi Min, he had to express his emotions as clearly as possible, so that she could feel it.

After that, getting along became very smooth. Since Anton's emotional expression was controllable, he avoided bringing home the negative energy of his work, and although his daily discussions as a Bolshevik were critical, he at least maintained a neutral discussion environment, rather than becoming a model in which two leftists began to pour bitter water on each other when they arrived at home.

And Anton still doesn't like Qi Min's friend Yelena. But it's not a big deal, when Qi Min and Yelena go out to play between experiments, he is often still at work. In order not to block him, Qi Min also wisely did not tell him these things, otherwise Anton would definitely think how she could get mixed up with pedophiles.

However, as they have been together for a long time, Qi Min will inevitably come into contact with Anton's friends.

She also learned after they were together that Anton didn't always go to a public high school of "happy teaching" Zheng When the previous owner of the Chinese restaurant had not left, Anton was sponsored to study in a private high school that was okay in this area, and affected by the stereotype of Asian, his grades were still good, and he also took a few AP courses first.

But the atmosphere in the underdeveloped areas of the United States is quite fatal, and such a serious study and self-proclaimed Chinese Rao student is often considered NERD by the "typical" Americans around him - Qi Min couldn't understand when he knew that such a good-looking person as Anton would be regarded as NERD? But when she looked at Anton's previous photos, she finally understood a little - even if a good-looking person wears original black-framed glasses and combs strange bangs, he will inevitably be considered a nerd.

In short, on the one hand, because of stereotypes, and on the other hand, Anton also did not have the heart to fit in with the Yankees, and he made friends with some minority NERD friends, and the only one who continued after his transfer was Nicholas. That is, the young Bolshevik of Hispanic descent, who had left for New York after graduating from high school, had suddenly told Anton that he was coming back.

Anton was of course happy to hear the news on the phone, but after being excited, he found that there was still some trouble in this matter. In their second year of high school, the Ni family went to Cuba for "higher pursuits", so in the last two years of high school, Nick went out to rent a house with Anton, and the rent was obviously the current apartment. And if Nick wants to come back, the priority must be to borrow and live here, the problem is that he will face the fact that he will have to meet with Qi Min and even get along for a while.

From Anton's point of view, Nick is an optimistic young man who doesn't have any bad hobbies, at least much "cleaner" than Yelena. Therefore, he is still very confident, and he directly follows Qi Min.

Qi Min was also very happy when he heard that his friend was coming back: "Since there is an extra bedroom, let him live here." ”

"Well, that's what I thought too." Anton was immediately relieved, "Nick is a super nice guy, you don't have to worry about him." ”

————————————

Nicholas arrived on Saturday, and in the morning Anton went to a fast-food restaurant to borrow a car to pick him up at the airport.

Finally met, Nick was no different from two years ago, and Nick was a little surprised to see Anton: "Hey, brother, you look good, don't you?" ”

"It's okay." Anton asked pleasantly, "How are you doing in New York?" ”

"It's not good, it's too competitive in New York. I'm going to have to go in a different direction, I'm going to go to Mexico. Nick shrugged his shoulders and asked again, "So...... Did you have surgery? ”

"What surgery?" Anton is a little strange.

"Laser correction of myopia." Nick was surprised, "Didn't you always want to do this?" ”

"Ah...... I didn't. Anton hesitated, "I think it's okay to wear contact lenses." ”

On the way out of the airport, Nick couldn't help but ask, "Brother, why don't you go for corrective surgery?" Didn't you plan for surgery? ”

"This surgery is too expensive." Anton replied.

"Too expensive? But didn't you save money? Nick asked.

"Oh, that money is still not enough. And I took some of it to buy a MacBook for Min. The Yankees in her lab all use Apple products. "That kind of surgery will be very troublesome if it fails, but it is safe to wear contact lenses in comparison." ”

Nick looked at him and couldn't help but say, "Are you crazy?" Isn't your girlfriend a PhD student, and she wants you to buy her a notebook? ”

"The salary of doctoral students is incredibly low." Anton reluctantly explained, "Two months without food or drink is not enough to buy a notebook. ”

"Wow, that's terrible." Nick shook his head, "Then you have to be busy, I've heard that some people have to pay off their student loans for more than ten years." ”

The terrible student loan is also the reason why Anton graduated from high school and fell directly into college. Otherwise, although he studied in a public high school in his final year, he would have no problem applying to a local university with his grades.

"Thankfully, Min hasn't applied for a student loan." Anton said happily, "And she studied in China as an undergraduate, so it shouldn't be very expensive." ”

"So you're going to go to China with her in the future?" Nick asked, turning his head.

That's a tough question to answer. Anton didn't know what Qi Min thought, and he himself didn't think about what the future would be. He thinks he is a pure Chinese, and deep down he has always wanted to return to China, but since Qi Min has come to this broken place to study for a doctorate, will she return to China to find a job?

And in the future, if the salary of student biology is so low, it will probably be difficult to do it.
