Song En was startled by the president’s words. He didn’t expect that this matter would really alarm the president. Although he had been connoting the other person before, saying it behind someone’s back and saying it in front of others are two different concepts.
“President Hui…” Song En was speechless. He realized very clearly that this was a person who could control his destiny, and the courage he had just lost suddenly disappeared.
The president nodded, glanced at Song En casually, then walked over to Lin Nuo and Gu Han, showed a kind smile, and took the initiative to extend a hand: “Welcome Miss Lin, Mr. Gu, if you don’t treat me well, you still need to give me a little face.”
Gu Han reached out and shook hands with him, using his clever position to block the president’s hand that might reach out to Lin Nuo. He knew that Lin Nuo didn’t like physical contact with strangers, so he hoped that the president would understand this.
As expected, the president understood very well and wisely stopped shaking hands with Gu Han. He could understand that a delicate little girl would not be happy to have any contact with an old man like him. He was the same when he was young. He’s not a handsome young man that little girls like.
“Hmph!” Zhang Ming snorted displeasedly, took a few steps forward, and said angrily, “The president is very familiar with this little girl. I heard that you are going to give her a separate test today?”
The president heard this. Turning around to look at Zhang Ming, he responded neither humble nor overbearing: “Originally, we had this plan, but since some people expressed dissatisfaction, let’s test it publicly – Miss Lin, do you have any objection?”
Lin Nuo nodded, saying that he didn’t care. She has never been afraid of anyone in Purification. To put it bluntly, everyone present is scum in her eyes.
Zhang Ming was about to speak when he felt his sleeve being tugged. He frowned and turned around to find that it was Song En winking at him.
“Grandpa Zhang, I can’t do it -”
Song En whispered. When he was facing a public execution, he remembered how much he weighed, and he was immediately on pins and needles, fearing that his secret would be exposed in front of everyone. It is one thing to be speculated in private, but it is another thing to be exposed in front of so many people. If possible, Song En hopes that he will not have to play.
Zhang Ming knew this very well, and he was responsible for all the cheating. Although he was getting older and his memory had not faded to the point of forgetting this incident, he knew that Song En would definitely not be able to pass the test, but that was the end of the story. If you refuse, you won’t be able to get off the stage, so it’s better to take it one step at a time.
Thinking of this, Zhang Ming winked at Song En and told him to calm down. In his heart, he felt a little contempt for this boy who was ignorant and incompetent. If he hadn’t neglected his training and made no progress, he wouldn’t have to drop the chain at such a critical moment.
At this time, Zhang Ming had selectively forgotten Song En’s advantage of being sweet-talking and getting things done, and all he could think about was suppressing Lin Nuo first. After she failed, he would give the president face and let her become his subordinate. At that time, he can make things difficult and humiliate the other party as much as he wants, and avenge his grandson.
It has to be said that when it comes to making wrong ideas, his and Song En’s brain circuits are surprisingly consistent.
The president over there had spoken, and his subordinates naturally did not dare to neglect him. There were 12 newcomers participating in the test this time, including Lin Nuo and Zhang Ming, the number became 14.
Considering Lin Nuo’s level, the president arranged the venue in the open space outside the hall. Various needed fruits were transported by robots in boxes and piled in designated locations, waiting for candidates to use them.
Many people have already come after hearing the news. Anyway, except for those specific days, there is rarely any serious business in the association, so coming to see the excitement will not delay work at all.
The assessors who were originally queuing up were going to take a collective test this time. The staff in the hall had nothing to do and they all followed them out. In order to avoid suspicion, none of them took the initiative to touch the fruits waiting to be purified. They all chose to stand aside and watch the fun.
Lin Nuo was not interested in watching them set up the venue. She was only thinking about the drama she was watching yesterday. Taking advantage of the free time, she simply found a place to stand out of the way, turned on the lightbrain and started watching it with gusto.
Zhang Ming walked up to Lin Nuo with a sullen face and stared at her for a long time, but the other party was only obsessed with watching dramas and didn’t even notice that there was someone else next to her. Gu Han saw Zhang Ming, but ignored him. He even thoughtfully asked someone to borrow a chair and brought it over so that Lin Nuo could sit down and watch comfortably.
“Little girl, it’s not too late to step back from the brink.” Zhang Ming suddenly spoke with a seductive tone, “You are young, and it is normal to have some vanity. In order to gain face among your friends, you have to establish yourself as a purifier. …You didn’t expect that things would become so big.”
By now, Zhang Ming has believed that Lin Nuo is a junior purifier, so he is so confident that she can look at her lightbrain here without worrying about the assessment later. But if he said that the other party was a master of purification, Zhang Ming would not believe it. He still thought it was a gimmick made by the little girl just to save face.
Lin Nuo ignored Zhang Ming and just pretended that there was a humanoid fly next to her ear. Although the “buzzing” was a little annoying, it was not enough for her to get up immediately to get the fly swatter.
“I know you’re feeling very nervous right now. You’re trying to divert your attention by looking at your lightbrain, but what’s supposed to come will still come. It’s useless for you to hold on.” Zhang Ming is still following the instructions, completely different from the initial aggresiveness. The two of them said, “How about this, if you apologize in public now, I can accept you as an apprentice for the sake of correcting your mistakes after you realize them. In this way, you don’t have to lose face in public examinations, and you can enter the association. Why not kill two birds with one stone?”
Lin Nuo still ignored him. The character in the play had reached a critical moment of life and death. She was worried about the heroine. How could she have the energy to pay attention to a chattering old man.
Zhang Ming didn’t know what Lin Nuo was thinking. He just felt that she was indifferent and was not a good-tempered person to begin with. The few words she just said were the limit. In the past, it was always others who supported him. Why? It was his turn to be friendly with a junior.
“Little girl, I don’t know whether to say something or not.”
Lin Nuo didn’t look back, and finally gave the other person a favor: “Don’t you know whether to say it or not?”
Zhang Ming almost choked to death at this sentence. Holding back a breath, raised his voice: “I want to give you a suggestion!”
The whole audience heard this, and everyone fell silent instantly and turned their eyes here to see what happened.
After Lin Nuo waited for the heroine to escape from death, she reluctantly pressed pause and raised his chin to Zhang Ming: “Say.”
Zhang Ming was almost pissed off, but he still firmly remembered the role he was going to play today. He said in a deep voice: “I wonder if your parents have taught you that when others are talking to you, you should look at others, don’t just stare at your lightbrain. It’s very rude to do that!”
Gu Han snorted coldly. He was about to speak, but was stopped by Lin Nuo’s raised hand. Then he saw the girl slowly getting up, with a look of surprise on her delicate and beautiful face, and looking at Zhang Ming with eyes full of pity.
“Old sir, let me give you a piece of advice. We are all adults. Please be a little self-aware. Sometimes when you talk to others and they keep looking at you, it’s not that they are impolite, but that they are simply too lazy to pay attention to you. This is a euphemistic way of saying that I hope you can get over it and stop being entangled. Why don’t you understand? It’s a miracle that you can live safely until now.”
When Lin Nuo said this, the whole place was silent for a second, and then people turned around and shook their shoulders with suppressed laughter one after another.
Zhang Ming was furious, but there was nothing he could do, because Lin Nuo sat back again, clicked the play button, and continued to focus on the lightbrain, completely ignoring him.
Lin Nuo was like this, and so was Gu Han. He looked at Zhang Ming as if he was nothing. He bent down and whispered something in Lin Nuo’s ear. Then he nodded, stood up straight and walked towards the box where many fruits were piled up.
After saying hello to the president, Gu Han looked at the fruits critically, and finally chose an orange that people wouldn’t drink the juice from his hand, and walked back calmly despite a lot of curious eyes.
Lin Nuo took the orange and purified it casually. Just as she was about to peel it, Gu Han took it back. Under the eager eyes of some people, Gu Han first took out a handkerchief and wiped his hands, and then slowly peeled the orange with elegant movements. The outer skin reveals the orange flesh with white streaks.
The handsome young man stretched out his slender white fingers, broke open a piece of fruit flesh, and brought it to the girl’s cherry-like lips. Lin Nuo raised his eyelids and clearly saw the teasing in Gu Han’s eyes. Without being pretentious, she opened his mouth and ate in line with the other person’s movements.
Isn’t he just playing the role of a housekeeper who takes good care of the young lady? Okay, I’ll just act with you.
Seeing Lin Nuo chewing and swallowing, Gu Han put the second piece to his lips, and at the same time asked almost in a whisper: “Is it sour?”
Lin Nuo opened her mouth for a moment, then ate it again as if nothing had happened, and clicked his tongue. The ambition of the wolf is obvious. Sure enough, being a considerate butler was all an illusion. He just wanted to find a food taster.
Hey, man!
Sure enough, Gu Han was very satisfied after getting the answer. The next time he whispered was: “How about we take some back later?”
“Sure.” Lin Nuo waved his hand, indicating to Gu Han that he should hold the orange on one side. Eat, don’t bother her, “My dear, please step aside.”
Gu Han bowed down just in time to salute, took the orange with only two pieces eaten, and stood behind Lin Nuo. Based on the principle of not wasting food, Gu Han with the others looking at him with envy and jealousy, calmly ate the rest.
He can’t care about other people. He gets the moon first when he is close to the water, and he eats first before talking about it.
People who knew Lin Nuo’s identity were all guessing about the taste of the orange, whispering how delicious it would be. After a while, when the test was over, and the little boss became one of their own, could they be shameless enough to ask her to share a few to taste?
Those who didn’t know Lin Nuo all looked at Gu Han with schadenfreude or sympathy. They felt that this housekeeper was really pitiful. He was forced to eat such unpalatable food just to show off for his master – even the purifier herself couldn’t eat it after eating two pieces, but she asked the butler to finish it all. It was really overbearing.
The little housekeeper has a thin waist and long legs, he is handsome and good-looking, and he is still of a cold and ascetic type… They don’t know how much his annual salary is, and whether it is possible to poach someone to come to their house.
…
While some people were having strange dreams, the venue had been arranged, and the president walked to the center and asked everyone who participated in the test to come over.
“Everyone, please get in place. The test is about to begin.”
Lin Nuo turned off her lightbrain, stood up slowly, and walked into the venue slowly. However, she did not go to her place as required, but instead looked sideways at Zhang Ming, who was about to serves as a judge.
“I, Lin Nuo, apply to challenge this person. If accepted, the method will be decided by him.”
After the words fell, there was an uproar in the venue.
The battle of honor between purifiers has not happened for twenty years.
The author has something to say:
Lin Nuo: Please teach me Lin Daodun, thank you.
Gu Han: I’m so happy to have a taste.
