Chapter 18 Life is like wine, always a little astringent(1/2)

Zhong Lizi turned around and looked at his opponent, his eyes calm and confident.

He seemed to be a sophomore senior. I heard that he hired three personal trainers at home, and his vitality is very high and his practical skills are also very strong.

So what? I also have a personal trainer. My vitality value has been measured to be higher than yours. As for practical skills...

She suddenly thought of what she said to herself at the Jingjiu down the cliff.

As long as it's fast.

What does this sentence mean? Is it the common line in the movie that the world's martial arts is just about speed and no breaking?

Zhong Lizi was thinking about this question while wearing protective gear.

The boy looked at her and smiled and said, "We should be faster, there are at least three rounds behind."

There are probably so many games to play from the preliminary round to the final victory and defeat. It seems that he is very confident that he can go to the end.

Zhong Lizi didn't know if she was influenced by Jing Jiu, but now she said less than before. She looked like an iceberg beauty, and stretched out a finger and hooked it.

The boy was slightly stunned and rushed over.

The silver hair floated out of the gap in the protective gear and turned into countless rays of light.

The exclamation was blocked by a transparent material barrier, and it looked a little dull, like the thunder she had only heard of but hadn't really heard of.

The sound of falling to the ground wearing a heavy protective gear is very clear.

She put down the half-piece of the wooden stick in her hand, was a little confused, and subconsciously turned around and looked at the small door.

The figure is gone.

There was no disappointment in her eyes, just a smile.

...

...

The gap in IQ of humans is not big, and the gap in ability potential is not too big. Most of the time, what is needed is nothing more than confidence and hope.

Jing Jiu knew she could do it, so he didn't have to watch it anymore and left the gymnasium and went to the empty library.

In the reading room, he connected to the Internet and went directly to the intranet of Yuzumi Company. That day, he took a few minutes to complete the process that a large company might have to go through for dozens of days. Logically speaking, the project of that studio should have started, so why haven’t you received a private message yet?

After searching in the intranet of Yuzuki Company, he found several memos with passwords. Only then did he know the reason, thinking that the noise this time seemed to be a bit big.

...

...

There was a scream in the gymnasium, and then it became extremely quiet.

The door was pushed open, Zhong Lizi walked out, Lu Shuiqian chased her and asked, "Everyone said to have a dinner party to celebrate you in the evening. Where are you going at this time?"

Zhong Lizi smiled and said, "I want to go up there."

She said she wanted to go upstairs, but in the end she went to the neighborhood below first, because Jing Jiu was not in the library, so she must be at home.

She took him to a barbecue stand in the black market and ordered a bunch of things, including two good steaks and a bottle of wine.

It was real wine, made of real grapes, not cheap goods with alcohol and flavors. It was very expensive, almost her monthly living expenses.

But she felt it was worth it. She got the first place in the graded assessment and also got the quota for exchange students. Of course, she had to invite Jing Jiu to have a good meal.

The beef sizzled on the baking board, and the stall was filled with an attractive fragrance, which was a little bit greasy for Zhong Lizi, who had eaten foods all year round.

Jing Jiu's nose couldn't smell it, so he could only analyze those particles, so it was okay.

When the wine is poured into a plastic cup, it cannot reflect its value no matter how it is. It sways slightly, like blood.

Zhong Lizi took a sip and frowned, feeling sour.

Jing Jiu couldn't taste it and didn't drink it, so it was okay.

"I am really happy. After I exchanged to Xingmen University, I will definitely study hard and practice hard, strive to stay there and continue to study. When I have enough credit points, I will try to do gene optimization."

Zhong Lizi had the same amount of alcohol as a bottle of ale. After drinking a few sips, her face turned red and she kept talking to him.

She originally thought that if gene optimization could be successful, her disease would definitely be cured, but thinking that he didn't know about this, she took it back.

Jing Jiu sat in the chair and listened quietly, not caring about what she was saying.

In the noisy night market, in the smell of smoke and noise, he was still reading a book.

Now he has countless books in his mind, enough for him to read for a long time.

The next moment, he suddenly looked at Zhong Lizi, raised the wine glass in his hand, and said, "It's really worth celebrating."

Zhong Lizi didn't expect him to respond at all. She was so surprised that she quickly picked up the wine glass and asked, "What happened?"

From her reaction, we can see that she is really a very smart girl and has a very clear understanding of this society and herself.

Sure enough, Jing Jiu celebrated another thing. He drank the red wine in his cup and said, "I solved a difficult physics problem."

The question he mentioned was the content in the last chapter of the monograph on physics.

In fact, that was not a physics question, it was a conjecture put forward by that scholar.

Many physical conjectures can be verified through experimental means. As long as the instrument is advanced enough, some can also be solved by mathematical methods.

He doesn't have a laboratory, so of course he uses the last one.

Zhong Lizi didn’t know how big the physics question he was talking about had, and thought I was also worth being so happy about it?

Jing Jiu knew what she was thinking, reviewed the physics monographs she had read these days, and said with great certainty: "I have solved all the physical problems that can be solved in your world now."

If Zhong Lizi hadn't known that he had a great origin and was indeed extremely good at studying, he would definitely think he was a lunatic.

She thought about it and decided not to laugh at him. She put down the wine glass in her hand, picked up a black pepper-stained edamame and ate it.

After eating the seventeenth black pepper-stained edamame, she suddenly raised her head and looked at him and said, "Thank you."

Jing Jiu quietly watched her without saying anything.

Zhong Lizi looked into his eyes and continued, "I don't know how you helped me, but I think it must be related to you, no matter what, thank you."

Jing Jiu looked at her and said, "You should know that I am using you."

"Of course I know, I'm not a fool."

Zhong Lizi smiled foolishly, fell forward, and hit his head heavily on the table, making a thump.

After drinking only three small glasses of red wine, she became drunk.

Jing Jiu watched the silver hair slowly spread out on the edge of the table, thinking that after waking up tomorrow, she didn't know if she still remembered this conversation.

The owner of the barbecue stall came over with the grilled eggplant and said, "The most expensive dish is here! Oh... Is the little girl drunk?"

Jing Jiu nodded.

The owner of the barbecue stall leaned back slightly and looked at him expressionlessly.

After a while, Jing Jiu understood what he meant, got up and walked to the opposite side and picked her up, carrying her on her shoulders.

The boss's face was slightly better and he said, "I'll pack the rest for you."

Jing Jiu did not have the patience, but thought about the girl's usual living habits, he still stopped.

He thought about it again, pointed to the bowl of black pepper-stained edamame, and shook his finger.

...

...

"No, no, no, according to the college's rules and regulations, there is no problem with the school doing this."

A thick, fat and white finger kept shaking in front of Zhong Lizi's eyes, like a maggot that emerged from the feces kept swaying.

She forced herself to resist the urge to vomit, took a deep breath, looked at the principal behind the table and said, "My vitality value is the highest, and the three subsequent assessments are also the first place. As a result, the exchange student quota is not mine. Do you confirm that there is no problem?"

The New World College Network logged out at noon today and notified that the person who exchanged for further studies at Xingmen University this year was not her, but a second-year male student.

The classmates who were excitedly asking her about her cultivation secrets and congratulating her suddenly became speechless. Lu Shuiqian held her hand, with a sympathy on her face, and kept comforting her.

If it were other female students, they might run to the lawn and cry. If it were boys, they might run to the woods on the lawn and keep pounding trees. They were all fifteen or sixteen-year-old children who suddenly faced such great setbacks and blows. What could they do before the world of college and adults? What dare they do?

There are always some children who are different, such as Zhong Lizi, because she has no way out and cannot give up this opportunity. With the shocked eyes of the students, she pushed open the classroom door, went to the principal's office, and then knocked politely on the door and walked in.

"Your assessment this time is indeed very good, and all the teachers see it. This year's first-class scholarship and leap scholarship will definitely be yours, but the number of students exchanged is not so determined."

The president of the New World College stood up and looked at her kindly and said, "The exchange students need to study at Xingmen University for half a year. We are a lower-level college. Of course, we have to follow the other party's guidance... I'll say it clearly. Your usual grades are too ordinary and you have never participated in various club activities. I want to say good things to you, but Xingmen University just won't accept them. What can I do?"

"It took only less than twenty hours from yesterday to noon today. Principal, you have transferred my information to Xingmen University. The other party actually read it so quickly. Do you still have time to convince me back and forth?"

Zhong Lizi stared at the fat principal's eyes. When the other party became more and more uncomfortable and was about to get angry, she suddenly said: "Chen Xuefeng, the exchange student two years ago, had his usual grades. Mo Hai, a exchange student seven years ago, had his usual grades even worse than me. How did they pass the assessment of Xingmen University?"

The fat principal didn't expect that this silver-haired girl actually remembered all the information about the exchange students. Finally, she couldn't help it. She slapped the table hard and shouted: "What are you calling! The review conditions of Xingmen University are different every year, how do I know!"

Zhong Lizi did not give in and said, "Since you want to call back the application, Xingmen University must have a written notice. Where is the notification? I want to read it."

The fat principal was forced to the wall and no longer wanted to hide anything. He pulled open his bow tie and scolded: "Is this something you can see if you want to see it! How did you talk to the teacher?"

He suddenly smelled something, sniffed like a dog, looked at her and sneered, "Did you drink alcohol last night? You were drunk all over! A student actually came to school with a hangover! What kind of virtue! Get out for me!"

Zhong Lizi didn't defend herself, but just stared in his eyes.
To be continued...
