MTL - Why is the Bright Moon Shining?-Chapter 43
Xu Can looked down and saw the lights of the car flashing in the dark night.
It was the black Mercedes Benz she was familiar with, as if she had just finished delivering someone, turned the car around, and left.
She paused and asked out of nowhere, "Did you just come back?"
Tong Mingyue: "Well."
Xu Can's heart seemed to be pricked by a needle, and he continued to ask, "Then you want to tell me about the school..."
Tong Mingyue hummed again.
Xu Can remembered that he didn't ask clearly last time, who was the man who gave her flowers and dated her.
"I'm not at home," Xu Can said quickly, "Professor Huang has already agreed to be my thesis advisor."
She didn't wait for Tong Mingyue to say anything, and added, "I'm still waiting for data in the laboratory. I want to be a graduate student of Professor Huang and do well."
Lied and hung up.
Can't meet Tong Mingyue.
Knowing that she is unprincipled in front of her, just like Guo Xiaoya said, what she says is what she says.
If, Tong Mingyue told Xu Can that she wanted her to be his student.
Xu Can had no choice and didn't know how to answer. Does she... really just want her to be her student?
But she was not willing to be her student.
—
Tong Mingyue returned home.
She didn't turn on the light either, walked to the study and sat in front of the computer for a few seconds.
Open the drawer, and two transparent folders are filled with the original work invitation letter, the letter of guarantee, the detailed work schedule and so on.
Tong Mingyue is a graduate student in the UK.
When I went abroad to study, it was purely to save time, and the British master's degree was one year. I didn't expect to meet a very good mentor. Later, if the mentor felt that she was too old and no longer took doctoral students, she would not return to China to study for a Ph.D.
The tutor has the style of the old British aristocracy.
Among the necessary documents that were mailed, there was also a handwritten envelope with a solemn lacquer seal. Open to:
DearMingyue:

The next day, before Xu Can went out, he carefully confirmed that Tong Mingyue was not waiting for the elevator.
Then go down the stairs.
The sun hides in the thick clouds, showing its face, the light emerges little by little, and the flowers and leaves are fragrant in the chirping of birds. The leaves of the trees refract the light, and the day is getting hotter.
Xu Can went to the laboratory very early.
Stay until noon. I found that Tong Mingyue sent her a message and asked when she was free.
After calming down all night, Xu Can still hadn't figured out how to face her.
On the way to the cafeteria, she was thinking about what to do, but she saw Tong Mingyue standing there under the camphor tree at the corner.
The male classmate in front of her, Xu Can recognized at a glance that it was Cheng Yiyun, another tutor of Ren Xinyi. At the time of the movie, he also said that Tong Mingyue was his ideal type.
He is the only one who Xu Can remembers his appearance and name after seeing him once.
Xu Can walked over quickly, trying to interrupt their speech.
Then I saw Tong Mingyue say something with a smile.
Chen Yiyun's smile was even more exaggerated.
Tong Mingyue's smile is nothing in itself, it's a little polite, the teacher's smile.
But they seemed to be having a good time chatting.
The sun is too bright.
Xu Can closed his eyes, feeling a little dazzling, and simply walked to the shade of another tree.
Taking advantage of Tong Mingyue not seeing herself, she went around from the right.
…
Xu Can stopped in place, not standing still, but not knowing how to move forward.
As if she wanted to divert her mind, she took on more and more filming jobs in other places, getting up early and ending late, purely for the sake of being busy. make money? Anyway, that's the right thing to do.
I was so confused, I didn't know what I was doing. Tong Mingyue is also on a business trip.
Contacts are getting less and less.
until senior year.
Guo Xiaoya came to hand in the first draft of the thesis, met Xu Can, and took her to the cafeteria to eat. He asked worriedly, "Are you alright?"
Xu Can smiled and said, "I'm fine."
"Are you sure?" Guo Xiaoya frowned and looked up and down at her smile, "The list of research fellows is coming down soon, what are you busy with, you can't see anyone all day. Shouldn't this be the busiest time? Are you afraid of being brushed in the retest?"
"Busy with part-time work."
"Wow," Guo Xiaoya said with no smile at all when she saw her sinking, "Did you find that no one talked to you recently? Because your aura is getting more and more fierce, and you feel like a murderer."
Xu Can: "?"
She ate the potatoes pretending to be meat in the cafeteria, trying not to smile: "Why do you see it?"
"Seriously," Guo Xiaoya paused and sighed, "I'm going abroad soon, and many things shouldn't be mixed in with blind ideas. But if you are like this, I really... advise you to stop thinking about it."
Xu Can did not speak.
She knew what Guo Xiaoya was talking about, and said weakly: "What? The last contact between her and me was last month."
Guo Xiaoya looked into her eyes and asserted, "You still like it to death, but you are deliberately cold to Professor Tong. What are you trying to do? You are abusing yourself."
Xu Can was noncommittal, looking at the pumpkin slices on the plate, thinking that this is something she doesn't like to eat.
But if it's crispy, she can eat a lot.
Guo Xiaoya hesitated and hesitated again, and asked: "Think about it for yourself, if Professor Tong gets married tomorrow, will you be devastated or even have thoughts of suicide."
Xu Can said lightly, "No."
"You really don't care about her?"
Xu Can smiled, "I have to live to see if she is doing well."
"What if she's not doing well," Guo Xiaoya asked curiously, knowing that Xu Can was not the kind of upright person on the surface, "Kill her husband? Will you kill for her?"
"Everyone studied chemistry," Xu Can thought of this question, only to realize that he really had no good morals. "Aflatoxin b1 may be possible, and it's easy to make. After a clean death, the autopsy can't find it."
Guo Xiaoya sneered and sighed, "Then your mentality is not as bad as I thought. Let me tell you the truth. I went to Qiu Wei yesterday to get a certificate. I heard from her that Tong Mingyue is going to work in the UK."
Xu Can: "…"
She didn't even know about it before.
"I heard what Qiu Wei said, she is the most well-informed...Professor Tong's master's tutor in the UK is the big cow who endorsed her Nature. He is about to retire. He has a very good international project to find him. He thinks I couldn't do it myself, so I recommended Tong Mingyue instead."
Xu Can pursed his lips and said nothing.
Guo Xiaoya swallowed cautiously, and continued: "Professor Tong has actually accepted this job offer a long time ago. After all, the conditions are very good. She is going to be the second boss. Her former mentor is the big boss, and she studies the combination of artificial intelligence and chemistry. …”
—
On the way home, Xu Can suddenly wanted to drink very much. In TV dramas, people with amnesia and despair are always played to drink and paralyze themselves.
She didn't understand this kind of emotion before, wouldn't it be good to solve it when she encounters difficulties?
It's better to be smart than stupid. Still don't know the best.
She remembered that Guo Xiaoya had said that there was a bar on Siqian Road, not too far from the school.
Thinking about it, she took a bus.
Xu Can had never been to a place like a bar. Guo Xiaoya occasionally goes to play, and has said several times that she will take her to see the muscular man dancing pole dancing.
At the entrance of the bar, two men stood around and greeted passing girls: "Do you want to come in and sit?" There was even a feeling that they would come over and pull people in.
Xu Can subconsciously avoided it and walked away.
I don't think this is a decent place.
There is another one next to it, quietly flashing neon signs, no one at the door. You can faintly hear the music inside.
Xu Can mistakenly regarded the small nightclub as normal, and walked in plainly.
Entering the door, I immediately found that the atmosphere inside was not right.
A man in a vest was on the phone, grabbing a girl's wrist and not letting him go, and the girl, not to be outdone, was swearing swearing.
As soon as Xu Can entered, everyone looked at him. The man scolded: "Damn, there are still people who are here to step up!"
A few people next to him immediately surrounded Xu Can.
Xu Can: "…"
She was obviously panicked, and when she saw that she was still very close to the door, she turned around and wanted to run. He was knocked down by a few men next to him.
"How many young ladies did that **** Zhang Jing call?"
"Fuck with us," the man in the vest kicked the girl and turned around, only to be hit on the head by the girl with high heels from behind, "Damn..."
The high heels were snatched by him and smashed into the girl's face.
Xu Can was pressed tightly by several people, feeling in a trance. For a moment I forgot to be afraid.
She actually knew that man.
Li Wenjie. He was the most ferocious person her father's debts in the past life provoked, and he was also the one who slashed her face with a blade in the past life.
After paying off the debt, Xu Qingguo did not gamble for a long time because of this matter.
"Damn, who is this..." Li Wenjie came over, still holding the high-heeled shoe in his hand, and patted Xu Can's face, "He has a tender face, but he looks like a student, you did not catch it wrong?!"
After all, after being on the road for a long time, eyesight is indispensable.
Xu Can nodded hurriedly: "I asked a friend to play next door. I just went wrong. I'm sorry, I'll go right away."
She lowered her face, trying not to meet his eyes.
"…"
Everyone was silent for a few seconds.
Xu Can was let go, but he couldn't let her go directly. Several men looked at each other.
"Are you Xu Qingguo's daughter?"
Li Wenjie looked at her face carefully, and suddenly remembered, with a malicious smile on his face, "I'm too busy to ask for your father's bad debt with me, and I don't have time to ask for it. I happened to meet you."
"Twenty thousand yuan, you can take it."
Xu Can was stunned, wondering how he could recognize him.
"I don't… don't know what you're talking about."
This amount does not match the previous life. It was more than 50,000 in the previous life. Is it all interest?
"Hehe, your uncle and I don't have any other skills, but I have a strong ability to remember people," Li Wenjie pointed to his head and smiled grimly. Your dad sent it? I heard that your dad is very precious to you."
Xu Can was suffocated.
Thinking of being slashed in the face by him with a knife in a previous life, it is also said to be slashed. Her eyes flashed, and she quickly wondered if there was a way to get out.
Suddenly, the door was knocked open from the outside.
"Hold your head and squat against the wall—"
The policeman in uniform came in and handcuffed all the strong and unobedient people at the door, "Sweeping porn—"
