In the past few days, I have not made the slightest progress on the matter of Professor 'Z', whether it is about Professor Wu or about "Alpha". All the clues were broken by this time.
"Damn!" I tapped the table hard, but I didn't notice Li Ruina, who was walking towards me with a plate.
"What's the matter, such a big fire? Could it be that your research project was not successful, or did Cui Li make you embarrassed again? Li Ruina jokingly sat down next to me, put the plate on the table, and tilted her head to look at me.
"I didn't ...... It's nothing, it's just that today's meal wasn't quite appetizing. "I casually told a lie that even I felt was clumsy, avoiding Li Ruina's gaze.
"Bad for today's meal? Would it make you so angry? Cheng Yin, your ability to lie is also enough. Li Ruina sneered.
I lowered my head and didn't answer her, but continued to eat my lunch, and then suddenly asked, "By the way, why did you come to this kind of student cafeteria and eat with some of our poor students?" Aren't you the lead engineer of AEF? It should be rich, right? Why, are you here to experience life today? β
"Yes, you're right, I'm here to experience life, I can tell you, in fact, I have a lot of assets, maybe I can buy a country." Li Ruina became more and more outrageous as she spoke. Can you buy a country? Does she really think she's a princess of a country or the daughter of a rich man?
I shook my head helplessly, picked up the pumpkin and put it in my mouth.
"Okay, I'm not going to tease you, in fact, I'm here to find you."
"Just looking for me? It's not going to be another exhibition, is it? I don't want to go, you can go to Cui Li. "My first reaction was to push this hard work on Cui Li's head.
"Exhibitions? It's not the show, it's this. Li Ruina said and opened her designer bag, took out an invitation letter from it and handed it to me.
"Birthday invitations? What's your birthday? I looked at the words on the invitation and typed it open, and sure enough, it was printed with Li Ruina's name and the address of the banquet.
"yes, it's my birthday, don't blame me for not reminding you, you have to dress more formally that day." Li Ruina looked at me with a smile.
Birthday party? Could it be that she came to school this time to send me a birthday invitation? But.....
"I'm still not going, and I don't know anyone..... I think you'd better find someone else." In fact, for two days, I was depressed that Professor Z's affairs had not progressed, and I was not in the mood to attend Li Ruina's birthday party, so I could only find a random reason to euphemistically refuse.
"I knew you would say that, so I gave Cui Li another invitation before you, and he was very happy." Li Ruina is right, I can imagine Cui Li's expression when I close my eyes.
"Okay....I'll attend." In this case, I have no reason to refuse again, so I can only go.
I took a closer look at the address of the banquet, and if I remember correctly, this lot should be the most prosperous place in the city, where almost all luxury villas, apartments are concentrated. I didn't expect Li Ruina to hold her birthday banquet there.
"This address ....." I was about to ask something, but Li Ruina's mobile phone suddenly rang.
She looked at her phone, quickly picked up the dinner plate, and dropped a sentence: "I have something, go first." He quickly left the school cafeteria.
I continued to eat the food on my plate, looking at the birthday invitation in my hand. Forget it, since you agreed, let's go, it's a big deal, just take it as a change of mood.
January 19, 2022 at 15:51 a.m
Today is Li Ruina's birthday, and I got up early to start looking for the right clothes.
I picked out a few pieces of clothing from my closet that looked good and changed into them. suddenly remembered what Li Ruina said to me: Don't blame me for not reminding you, you have to dress more formally that day.
Isn't it just an ordinary birthday party? As for such a big formation, you don't necessarily have to wear a suit.
I pulled out a shirt from the closet, found a brand new suit, and looked at the brand, it wasn't a big name, but I could still call the name.
I wore the suit on my body, it was quite slim, and this is it, I made up my mind and went out.
Since the address where the birthday party was held was in an extremely expensive area, there were almost no bus stops, so it seemed that I had to take a taxi. Just as I was about to stop a taxi, a car pulled up in front of me, and a familiar face peeked out of the window----- Cui Li.
I looked at what he was dressed today, his suit and leather shoes, and even his hairstyle was carefully groomed, I had never seen him care so much about what he was wearing. I don't know where the sun rises today.
"Cui Li? What's wrong with you today? So formal? I asked curiously.
"Cheng Yin, you don't know, but it's not strange, you don't usually go out much, the address of Li Ruina's birthday banquet this time is not ordinary, it is the most luxurious private manor in the city." Cui Li said.
"What!! Private estate? I asked in disbelief, that lot was almost a lot of money, and that there were still people building private estates there. I was shocked
"yes, let's get in the car." Cui Li said.
I took Cui Li's car and headed towards the private estate...... On the way, I kept wondering what that manor was like.
January 19, 2022 at 16:46 a.m
Soon we arrived at the venue of this banquet, Cui Li and I got out of the car, and in front of us appeared a private manor that seemed to be extremely magnificent and extravagant.
At this time, what Li Ruina said suddenly came to my mind - "I can tell you, in fact, I have a lot of assets, maybe I can buy the next country." β
It can't be true, right? Maybe she's really the princess of some country, or the daughter of a rich man. Thinking of this, I couldn't help but sneer three times and slowly walked in.
"Hello sir, please show me your invitation, thank you." The ushers at the gate said respectfully.
"Okay." Cui Li and I took out our invitation letter and handed it to him, and he made a 'please' gesture to us after careful confirmation. Soon the door opened slowly with the thought of us.
Cui Li and I officially entered this luxurious private manor, and when we came to the inside of the manor, I knew what magnificence was.
I looked at my clothesβa black suit that looked like a brand, and a light-colored shirt. Although it is not rude, it seems a little lo compared to their high-end suits and dresses, and it seems a little out of place with the overall atmosphere.
"It's really beautiful here...."Cui Li couldn't help but sigh.
"yes." I said perfunctorily, and at first glance, I knew that it must be a place where rich people would come. If it weren't for Li Ruina's invitation, how could Cui Li and I have come here. In this way, this Li Ruina is not ordinary rich.
At this moment, I suddenly heard a familiar voice, "Cheng Yin, Cui Li, you are here, I am so happy." β
"Yes...... "It's good that I don't look back, but when I turned around, I saw a completely different Li Ruina from usual.
I saw Li Ruina wearing exquisite makeup, holding a princess head, wearing a high-end and gorgeous pink evening dress, and wearing extremely precious jewelry on her neck and ears, feeling out of temperament.
Li Ruina walked slowly towards me, and her slight smile almost caused me to go into cardiac arrest!
"Cheng Yin, didn't I ask you to dress more formally?" Li Ruina looked my whole body up and down as she spoke.
I pulled Li Rena aside and whispered in her ear, "This is the most formal dress in my closet, but you didn't tell me that your birthday party was such a big scene." I can't handle that. β
Li Ruina secretly smiled, looking at my anxious expression, but she only found it funny.
"You're still smiling, or I'll go back first and give you a gift." As I spoke, I handed the gift to Li Ruina.
"No, why are you leaving? What's more, the haute cuisine here is made by international celebrity chefs, and you can't eat it outside. Li Ruina said.
"Yes, Cheng Yin, we just came, and it was rude to go back like this, besides, I haven't eaten such high-end cuisine." Cui Li's eyes lit up when he heard the food.
"Okay." I thought about it, since I'm all here, it's not good to leave right away, so I might as well stay here a little longer, wait for the meeting to be less crowded, and then find a chance to slip away.
Thinking like this, I nodded, and after greeting Li Ruina, I walked towards the buffet with Cui Li.
January 19, 2022 at 17:46 p.m
Li Ruina's words are true, the food in this buffet area really looks exquisite and delicious, and it tastes delicious, needless to say, it must be made by a celebrity chef. I was so immersed in the heavenly kingdom of food that I had forgotten that I had slipped away when I had the chance. Cui Li and I were in the buffet area and kept tasting all kinds of food. Not only is the food delicious, but a lot of it is something we haven't even seen before.
Suddenly, the beautiful violin music sounded behind me, and I drank the juice and ate the food, and it was at this moment that the waiting in the banquet hall suddenly darkened. Jack came out of nowhere and appeared on stage with Li Rena in the spotlight.
"Ladies and gentlemen, it's nice that you can come here in the evening......" Jack seemed to be saying his birthday greetings.
"Cheng Yin, there seems to be a French meal in the courtyard outside, let's go quickly." Cui Li urged.
"At this point, it looks like I'm going to say a birthday greeting now." I looked at Jack on stage.
"What's so nice about this, it's more important for me to go out and taste the food." After Cui Li finished speaking, he pushed me to the courtyard outside.
The courtyard environment outside is indescribably beautiful, and the open-air tables and chairs have a different artistic conception against the backdrop of the moonlight. As soon as we got to our seats, a French chef brought delicious dishes to us. Then he said a lot of French that we didn't understand, and Cui Li and I could only nod awkwardly.
We didn't understand the French chef's language, but the French food he made was really delicious. While we were enjoying our meal, a beautiful melody suddenly came to mind next to our table, and a Frenchman with a violin was playing next to me.
"Well, I said, it's much better to have a French meal here than to listen to a boring greeting in there." Cui Li said proudly, as if the decision he had made was so wise.
I didn't speak, I just ate the dishes by myself.
β¦β¦
January 19, 2022 at 18:20 p.m
When Cui Li and I returned to the banquet hall again, the lights in the banquet hall were already on, and a beautiful melody filled the air.
Obviously, Cui Li and I had missed the congratulation, and at this time, the spotlight was all on Li Ruina, and Li Ruina walked in my direction. She gracefully pulled up the hem of her skirt with both hands and smiled and saluted.
"Cheng Yin, I don't know if you can dance with me." Li Ruina said gently, at this time, she was like two people when she was in the amusement park.
"But, I don't dance well...."I just wanted to refuse, but Li Rena said softly: "Today is my birthday, don't let me down." β
Although I felt embarrassed, I could only smile and put one hand on my chest, saluted Li Ruina in return, and took her right hand.
The music sounded in our ears, the spotlight hit Li Ruina's face, which was particularly beautiful, I took Li Ruina's hand, cooperated with her dance steps, gently leaned my head to her ear, and whispered: "Li Ruina, I am confused by you, what is your identity?" β
Li Ruina looked at my side face and asked me, "What?" Didn't you hear? β
"What do you hear?" I looked at Li Ruina inexplicably.
"Since you didn't hear it, then I won't say it, you will always know later." Li Ruina deliberately bought a mystery and rested her head on my shoulder.
The music was still ringing in our ears, and when it was played to the most lyrical part, I heard Li Ruina say softly: "Cheng Yin, I like you." β
Her words suddenly made my deer more than stop, and my heart struck. At that moment, I accidentally glanced at Yitzhak behind the curtain in the banquet hall. He looked at me and Lee, then turned away and left.
At that moment, I vaguely saw the anger of hatred in Yitzhak's eyes, like a fire that consumed the world......
