"That's right, you've heard that too?" Xu Lina said in a low voice with contempt on her face, "I've never seen such a shameless person."

Zhu Yun was a little anxious and asked directly, "Is it Fang Zhijing's team?"

Li Xun glanced at her, and Xu Lina said, "You know him too, Fang Zhijing is their team leader."

Zhu Yun: "What happened to them?"

Xu Lina snorted twice, and said, "It's really insightful to dig a hole for a competition."

Digging a door and stealing a hole

Gao Jianhong said to Zhu Yun: "I heard that they communicated with the event sponsors in advance."

"It's more than an exchange!" Xu Lina interjected, "The teacher leading the team simply went directly to someone's door to ask for questions."

Zhu Yun: "Where did the questions come from? Aren't the competitions all self-proposed questions?"

"That's what it means..." Xu Lina stuck her fork in the unfinished fruit salad, "Forget it, don't mention these bad things, anyway, he has no effect on you, and they won't participate in the next competition."

The more Zhu Yun listened, the more confused she became, "What do you mean? You won't participate?"

Gao Jianhong said to Zhu Yun: "There is an item in the competition rules, 'products that are about to be released in cooperation with enterprises cannot participate'. It seems that their encryption interface is about to sell a patent."

Zhu Yun was stunned on the spot.

Li Xun played with the cup again.

Xu Lina: "Their mentor has cooperated with the sponsoring company. Knowing that they have recently established a new studio with a research direction in this area, they got the proposition a few months in advance, and they have almost done it themselves. Part of it is given to the students. To participate in the competition, I really can’t even admire it.”

A student next to him continued: "Originally, they could continue the competition and sell things after the competition, but they are anxious, afraid of missing the opportunity."

Another classmate said: "I don't know how many bugs there are, so guilty."

Zhu Yun was quiet, and said in a low voice: "Then they won't participate in the competition?"

"What else is there to participate in?" Xu Lina sneered twice, "If you really sell the patent, they will give you a special prize. They will get both fame and fortune, and they don't care what others say."

"You don't need to be so sour."

A sharp female voice came, everyone turned their heads and saw a man and a woman sitting at another table not far away.

Zhu Yun had a vague impression that they were from the same school as Fang Zhijing, the girl was Liang Yuxin, Fang Zhijing's girlfriend, she came with her, and did not participate in the competition, and the boy was a member of Fang Zhijing's team.

I didn't expect them to come here for dinner.

Liang Yuxin sarcastically said: "It is a skill to be able to sell. Some people might as well go back and improve their own level instead of telling stories here."

Not to be outdone, Xu Lina said, "What level should I improve, the level of going through the back door?"

Xu Lina didn't feel embarrassed at being caught saying bad things behind her back. It seemed that she couldn't see Fang Zhijing's actions from the bottom of her heart.

Liang Yuxin glared, "What do you mean by going through the back door, if you have the ability—"

"Forget Yuxin." Another boy interrupted her, sneered, "What's the use of talking about it, it's like this these days, some people sell patents, some people sell tongues, everyone pursues different things, don't demand too much from others. "

"Oh, you're right." Liang Yuxin glanced lightly, and stopped looking at Xu Lina.

Xu Lina was so angry that she almost gritted her teeth.

Zhu Yun didn't want to hear any more, got up and left.

The lake is very cool, and there are a few small boats parked on the shore not far away. The boats can't swim in the lake, just a beautifully decorated coffee shop.

With willow branches swaying by the lake and a beautiful environment, it is a bar street. Summer nights are free, and there are many pedestrians around. Red men and women shuttle in the colorful neon streets, laughter, crying and chatting, all are swallowed by the night wind.

The reflection of the moon on the horizon in the lake was broken.

Looking at the lake like this, Zhu Yun suddenly felt that what she did was meaningless.

She naively thought that she could defeat Fang Zhijing with hard work, but the reality taught her a wonderful lesson, teaching her that there are countless paths to victory in this world, if you block one, others can exploit another.

You blame the sky for not opening your eyes and letting the villain succeed, but the fact is that the sky has never looked at you.

Take a step back, even if Fang Zhijing continued to participate in the competition, their results crushed him, so what

After so many years, does he still remember Liu Xiaoyan

To him, Liu Xiaoyan might just be a step to curry favor with the school leaders, after stepping on it, he would never look at it again.

Only she herself is always looking back at the past, always looking for those vague regrets at the edge of memory, and then trying to make up for it in a roundabout way.

has no meaning…

If you really hate Fang Zhijing, you should have stood up that day many years ago. What's the point of winning him now.

Besides, you still can't win.

Zhu Yun suddenly felt a strong self-loathing, put her head on the stone bridge pillar carved with lotus, squatted down slowly, her stomach was overwhelmed.

Not long after, a hand suddenly appeared on the abdomen. The palm was big and gentle, slowly lifting her up, like salvaging a sunken ship.

"What are you doing, drunk without drinking?"

His voice was as calm and clear as ever, with a little bit of ridicule, and because of the night, it was a little low.

Zhu Yun lowered her head and shook her head slightly.

"What's wrong?"

"nothing… "

Li Xun leaned against her, "Unhappy?"

"without… "

I sweated so much during the day that my hair stuck to my ears, and the wind couldn't even blow it up.

Li Xun narrowed his eyes, and said calmly, "The reason I set aside so much time to come out is not to see your expression now."

Zhu Yun felt sour in her heart, "I'm sorry."

She really shouldn't have put on such a posture in front of Li Xun. Fang Zhijing's matter had nothing to do with him. He did his best to help her and he didn't deserve to be treated like this.

Zhu Yun tried to communicate with him with a lighter topic, but her mind was like a rusty bearing, and she couldn't turn it on.

Li Xun lit a cigarette: "Are you annoying that Fang Zhijing?"

"Um."

After responding reflexively, she suddenly felt bad. Just about to explain, Li Xun smiled knowingly, "Got it."

Quiet, Zhu Yun said: "You don't ask me why?"

"Do not ask."

"Maybe the reason is not convincing?"

"It doesn't matter if there is no reason." Li Xun straightened up, "Everyone has to make decisions based on emotions."

Li Xun's voice was never in a hurry. Zhu Yun was infected by him and felt that she didn't feel so uncomfortable anymore. She said to him, "I'm going back to rest first, you guys eat slowly."

"Um."

Watching Zhu Yun leave, Li Xun returned to the dining table, Gao Jianhong asked him, "Where is he?"

"The princess has already returned to court."

Gao Jianhong smiled, and Xu Lina next to him came over and asked Li Xun, "What? What princess?"

Li Xun didn't sit down, he lazily took out his cigarette, Xu Lina urged him, "What the hell?"

"It's the princess."

"There are still princesses now, what kind of girl is a princess?"

Li Xun leaned against the table.

"Princess..." He looked towards the long street on the way back in the hazy night, and said half-jokingly, "First of all, you must have a pair of clear eyes, and secondly, an innocent and fragile heart."

Xu Lina looked confused, Li Xun raised his eyebrows, and added, "Of course, it would be even better if we added a little more risky spirit."

Xu Lina was confused and pushed him.

"What, mysterious."

Li Xun finished smoking a cigarette and got up, Xu Lina pulled him, "Where are you going, let's go shopping later."

"No, I have something else to do."

"What's the matter, haven't you finished all the works for the competition, go back and practice your defense."

Li Xun smiled, "I have to think of a way to see if I can remedy it."

"remedy?"

Li Xun snuffed out the smoke, and said coolly, "Otherwise, if this continues, my business will be ruined."

Xu Lina said disappointedly: "Then you are going back now?"

Just as Li Xun was about to nod, he remembered something and glanced at Xu Lina.

Seeing those clear eyes, Xu Lina's face became slightly hot, and her voice became softer.

"What's wrong?"

Li Xun said: "You seem to be very familiar with these participating players and mentors."

Xu Lina hummed, "...Many of them are people I know."

Li Xun looked at her thoughtfully and walked slowly.

He was tall, blocking the moonlight, Xu Lina's heart was pounding. Suddenly, he felt a weight on his shoulders, and then smelled a clean smell.

A seductive voice rang in my ears—

"Then... can you help me get Fang Zhijing's equipment samples and source code?"

The wind blows and weeds grow on the side of the road.

Zhu Yun returned to the hotel and met the person she least wanted to meet at the door.

After Fang Zhijing had a meeting with the sponsor, he came back with a glowing face. It could be seen that the results of the discussion were very satisfactory, and he walked with trepidation.

Zhu Yun wanted to hide behind the flowerpot, but failed, Fang Zhijing saw her at a glance.

"Hey! Zhu Yun!" He came over with a few strides, "I'm done talking, whoops, these people are really inefficient in doing things, and companies are like this, so we have to be patient and talk."

"..."

"By the way, our group may not participate in the official competition." Fang Zhijing said half-jokingly, "Let's leave the first prize to you, so Teacher Liu will be happy too, haha!"

It seems to have a stealth skill...

"I heard about it." Zhu Yun has been duplicity countless times since she lived, and this time made herself the most uncomfortable, "Congratulations."

Fang Zhijing: "Have you heard? Who told you?"

Zhu Yun didn't answer, Fang Zhijing snorted and said, "Is it those few again? They'll be cooing behind people's backs."

Zhu Yun still didn't speak, Fang Zhijing spread his hands and said, "I don't care, people are like this, success will be envied by others. They said that I play dirty tricks, what are dirty tricks, I don't use resources if I have them, and I put my long hair on them." Is there any real fairness in this society? I spend time studying in the laboratory every day, so I don’t need to spend time in contacting? Anyway, the result I want has been achieved, and I don’t care what others say.”

Zhu Yun was still silent, Fang Zhijing asked: "Use your brain, people should spend their time on things that can get the highest feedback value. And, Zhu Yun, do you know the essential difference between me and them? "

Zhu Yun shook her head, Fang Zhijing looked at her steadily.

"They can choose to talk nonsense or not, and I can choose to listen or not to listen, but whether they talk nonsense or not, my results will not change. If I choose to listen, I will be upset for a while at most, but once I choose not to listen , is a complete victory!"

His eyes flickered, and he had the toughness unique to successful people, forcing Zhu Yun to agree—

"You're definitely not like them. You're so smart. You should understand who goes up and who goes down."

Zhu Yun's chest was cold, and her fingers trembled uncontrollably by her side. She tried her best to keep her face and voice calm—

"Well, I understand."
