Chapter 588: Escape from the meal, each showing their unique skills
With so many people coming to class, their small conference room was no longer enough. The lecture hall seemed a bit too big.
Xu Weiwei sent a message to Wei Lai, asking him to bring the cleaning staff to clean up the large, unused conference room. He also wanted to count the seats and see if there were enough. If not, he could add a few more chairs.
After returning to the group chat, Xu Weiwei discovered that Wang Lingxian, the monitor of the teaching class, had @ed her in the group.
[Teacher, just a quick reminder, it would be best if you deleted your latest blog post. The content is too valuable to be leaked.]
Many people followed suit.
After hearing these words, the first four words that popped up in Xu Weiwei's mind were: academic monopoly.
This is a phenomenon she deeply detests: the dominance of a few authoritative institutions, universities, and influential professors, which form academic circles, monopolize resources and research, and suppress the exchange and competition of other viewpoints.
This behavior is essentially driven by personal gain and has no social benefit. It hinders the diffusion of technology and the sharing of knowledge, and results in unfair resource allocation.
Xu Weiwei understood that most people are selfish. The more wealth and status one possesses, the more they want to cut off others' paths to advancement.
But trying to control her is going too far.
Xu Weiwei typed a few words in dissatisfaction, but deleted them out of courtesy and changed her words to be more tactful.
It's okay. Anyone who wants to read it can read it, and anyone who wants to learn it can learn it. I want to see everyone interested in Traditional Chinese Medicine. When I first wrote this, I had the idea of sharing it for free.
Xu Weiwei was rehearsing in her mind how to respond if the other party crossed the line again.
But she didn't expect that the other party's next answer was completely beyond her expectations.
"It's not just about the money. I know you don't value that little bit of money, but I also know your character. You don't understand the risks involved."
Medicine is a highly specialized field, and even the slightest mistake can lead to disaster. For example, if someone follows the pictures in the "Illustrated Guide to Chinese Herbal Medicine" and consumes the wrong ingredient, you might be in trouble.
[Yes, Professor Wang is right.]
[Acupuncture should be kept secret even more. Since it's so difficult to see you, someone might have ulterior motives and use your name, or some random connection, to give someone acupuncture.]
[Yes, by then the scammers will have escaped and the victims won't think too much about it, so they will definitely put the blame on you.]
[Not to mention the scammers, it's not good for spies to get their hands on this thing.]...
Xu Weiwei suddenly felt enlightened and buried her face in her hands in embarrassment.
Ahhhhhhh! How could she miss someone so much! Ahhhhhh! Thank goodness! Thank goodness she didn't post the first "thorny" version!
Xu Weiwei quickly opened Xingbo and deleted the post.
During lunch, her family asked her what she planned to do during the summer vacation and where she wanted to go.
Xu Weiwei paused for a moment while holding the chopsticks, then slowly raised her head and blinked her big eyes at them.
Well, this is another time to stand them up. Looking at this expression, what else is there to understand?
Everyone at the table wanted to talk but hesitated, and finally chose to eat in silence.
"Next time! I'll definitely go after I finish work! I really want to go out and have fun, but there's nothing I can do. I have a lot of work to do, and my employees are counting on me for their livelihoods. I'm in the rising stage of my career..."
Xu Weiwei was stunned after she finished speaking. How did these words just flow out of her mouth? It was as if... something strange had been opened up.
Kane put it bluntly, "Do you know what you look like right now?"
"what?"
"Irresponsible 'husband'."
Xu Weiwei: “…”
Can't refute.
Mrs. Seaforth burst out laughing, then sighed. "Besides, the summer vacation is so long, it wouldn't hurt to take a week or two off, right?"
Since her mother had said so much, Xu Weiwei didn't dare to say no. She nodded in agreement.
"What are your plans for the afternoon? Do you want to go out for a walk?"
"I'm going to the research center for a small meeting this afternoon, and then I'm going to pick up Brother Ganz. He sent me a lot of messages yesterday, asking for leave to come back, but I didn't agree. Then we agreed to pick him up today."
"You're quite the boss," Mrs. Seaforth said amusedly.
Xu Weiwei was very proud: "Of course, Gantz listens to me the most."
If Ryan was there, he would definitely try to recite a line at the top of his lungs, but unfortunately he had classes at school and left early.
Kane wiped his mouth and said, "I'll go with you."
"Okay, then you can rest at home first. I'll text you after the meeting."
In the special forces training base, everyone was having lunch in the cafeteria.
Each person had an aluminum plate, covered in a pool of green goo. Aside from Gulu, who was happily enjoying his meal, everyone else's faces were sullen. It was hard to tell which was greener, the goo or their faces.
In order to fit in with various identities, diet is also a part of their practice.
There were dozens of dishes from different planets, and the chefs cooked a different dish every day. Unfortunately, today they were served Lusenshi cuisine.
It's not as sweet as jelly, but stickier than jelly. It's not terrible, and it's okay as a snack, but it's a bit hard for people to accept as a full meal.
Fujio took advantage of the instructor's inattention and poured his food into the gourami plate. After all, he was a vegetable and would not be hungry even if he didn't eat anything.
The fire man simply burned everything cleanly.
Haisang and Gantz could only stare blankly. How could they reason with the elementals? They had to eat.
Suddenly, there was a crackling sound in my ears.
Looking to the left, the Ice Girl had frozen the porridge into a smoothie-like consistency, eating it bite by bite without any burden. Noticing their gazes, she enthusiastically asked, "Do you need help?"
"Yes!" Two plates were handed over.
"Is that all you're going to eat?"
"Today is Friday. Gantz is going home. The general's family must have prepared a lot of delicious food." Someone nearby said enviously.
"Oh yeah! I forgot all about that."
They only have a vacation once every two weeks, which is too long and they become confused as time goes by.
Knowing that Ganz was going home, everyone gathered around him.
"Brother, you will bring me some cookies this time, right?"
"I think the shredded beef with light shadows was delicious! Godfather! Can you ask your aunt to make it again?"
"Ganz, I'm not picky. I'll eat whatever you bring."
Ganz was already accustomed to the biweekly celebrity treatment and stated as usual, "These are all prepared by my mom and grandma. I'm not sure if there's anything you like."
"It's okay, as long as you bring it, everything is delicious, hehe..."
Haisang glanced at Gantz who was surrounded by the crowd, lowered his head and poked at the smoothie in the plate with a thoughtful look on his face.
When he first saw the news yesterday, he wanted to send a message to Selvie, but Ganz next to him had already done it before him.
He didn't want to bother her with repetitive words. Just hearing from someone else that she was alright was enough.
But he kept regretting it afterwards.
His chat with Selvie was still stuck on the page they had just added. Although he would check her homepage from time to time to see what was going on, he still hadn't thought of anything to say.
Especially after such a big incident. Afterwards, seeing that he didn't say a word, would Selwyn think he was a bad person?
Haisang racked his brains, thinking about how to save the situation.
