"Boss! Wait for me! I'll go with you!"
After taking a few steps, he heard Jian Jun's voice coming from behind.
The two turned around and saw him running down the stairs with a box of sundries in his hands, sweating profusely, and almost bumping into the automatic door.
He staggered to An Chengye, let out a long sigh, and said sincerely: "No matter what others say, I believe you will not do that kind of thing. You are the most creative geek in my heart. Please let me continue to follow you!"
"No, I finally got rid of you, don't bother me anymore." An Chengye frowned and said with disgust.
Mai Xiaoshu and Jian Jun were both stunned. They didn't expect An Chengye to say such cruel words.
"You really don't want me to follow you?" Jian Jun's expression turned sad.
"No, you'd better stay here obediently." After saying this, An Chengye pulled Mai Xiaoshu out of the laboratory.
It was snowing heavily outside. Within sight, several flamingos standing in the square had their fiery red feathers dyed snow-white, losing their former brilliance.
An Chengye stared at them for a long time until he came to his senses when he heard Mai Xiaoshu's voice.
"In fact, you stopped Jian Jun from leaving Shiku Technology because you didn't want to become a stumbling block in his career. Even someone as stupid as me knows this, and Jian Jun will definitely understand it."
An Chengye looked at her with a hint of melancholy in his eyes: "I can start over again, but I can't delay others."
" You definitely can stand up again! At worst, I can support you!" Seeing that the atmosphere was becoming sad, Mai Xiaoshu deliberately raised his voice and clenched his fists to make a gesture of cheering.
"You support me?" An Chengye was stunned for a moment. He caught the ambiguous words in Mai Xiaoshu's words, deliberately moved closer, and asked, "Why do you want to support me? How are you going to support me?"
Because of his sudden approach, Mai Xiaoshu's cheeks flushed pink. She looked away guiltily and hesitantly explained: "You fell into this situation because of me. Of course I have the responsibility to support you. Besides, I haven't used the salary you paid me before. I have a full 100,000 yuan. You can use this as start-up capital!"
"Oh? In that case, I won't be polite." An Chengye seemed to be comforted and pulled himself out of the sad atmosphere. A mischievous expression appeared on his handsome face. "I forgot to tell you that my house has also been taken away. From today on, I have to stay at your house."
"What!"
I didn't expect things to develop to this point, and I couldn't take back what I said. Mai Xiaoshu stared at him blankly, her heart pounding because of his request to live together.
Half an hour later, when Song Feifei saw Mai Xiaoshu standing at the door and An Chengye behind her, she was as nervous as a wooden man.
“You guys are here!”
"Fei Fei, where are you going?" Looking at Song Feifei carrying a suitcase and preparing to go out, Mai Xiaoshu asked curiously.
"Please come in, please come in." Song Feifei pulled An Chengye into the house in a flattering manner, then pulled Mai Xiaoshu aside and whispered in her ear: "Didn't you send a message saying that An Chengye was going to live in our house? I thought about it, as your good friend I should leave you some private space. It happened that my classmate said that her parents were traveling abroad, and she was scared to be alone at home. I was worried that something would happen to you staying alone, so I didn't agree. Now that An Chengye is going to live here, then I will go to my classmate's house to live for a while! Remember... hehe... remember to take him down!" After that, she smiled meaningfully again.
"What did you say? You want me to live with him alone?" Realizing what Song Feifei meant, Mai Xiaoshu's cheeks turned red.
"Come on! It's normal for couples to live together . You guys stay at home. I'm leaving first!" Without waiting for Mai Xiaoshu to explain, Song Feifei continued to speak, "Do whatever you want. An Chengye, just treat it as your own home."
After saying that, Song Feifei looked at the two of them ambiguously, closed the door with a clang, and left.
"Fei Fei, wait a minute, we are not what you think!" Mai Xiaoshu didn't have time to hold her back to explain, and soon they were the only two left in the room.
The two looked at each other, and An Chengye coughed awkwardly: "Your friend is quite sensible, it's just right, he won't disturb us."
As soon as the words fell, Mai Xiaoshu's face suddenly turned redder. He tried to guess what he meant by that. He turned around and saw An Chengye looking around the house. Although it was much simpler than his house, he didn't seem to mind. He sat on the sofa leisurely, crossed his arms over his chest and said, "There's not much time left. I want to continue the Reiki ZOO project."
So this is what he meant by not being disturbed. Thinking of the random thoughts he had just had, Mai Xiaoshu scratched his head in embarrassment.
Seeing that she was standing there in a daze without saying anything, An Chengye raised his eyebrows and said, "Why are you still standing there? Help me prepare a desk. I need a computer."
"Oh oh, right away!"
When it comes to work, An Chengye becomes serious again. Seeing Mai Xiaoshu slowly tidying up the workbench, he can't help but urge her: "Hurry up, be more efficient. Also, you are not allowed to go anywhere for the next half month. You must complete the project with me."
"Okay, I get it. Stop just staring and help me lift the table down!"
"You said you would take care of me until I succeed in starting my own business. This kind of heavy work is not suitable for me." Although he complained, An Chengye still lifted the table obediently.
The heavy snow outside the window had stopped at some point, and the first ray of winter sunshine gently fell on them, making everything warm and beautiful.
There are tens of thousands of animal species in the world, and it is impossible for two people to complete all the tests in a short period of time. The two decided to use cats as the primary experimental subjects, and the cat cafe owner Yu Shang was willing to provide the experimental site unconditionally. Coupled with the previous experience accumulated, the project progressed more smoothly than expected.
After countless sleepless nights, one morning, An Chengye yawned and pushed Mai Xiaoshu, who was sleeping on the sofa: "Wake up! There's a fire!"
"Ah!" Mai Xiaoshu, who was immersed in his sleep, suddenly woke up with a start. Seeing the mischievous smile in An Chengye's eyes, his veins popped out immediately, "You scared me to death. Why did you wake me up before dawn?"
"The procedure is complete."
"Huh?" Mai Xiaoshu blinked in surprise. "Really? Is the software usable?"
The progress was faster than she had originally expected!
As if she couldn't believe it, she confirmed it again and again, and after getting his affirmative answer, she jumped up happily.
I took the phone handed to me by An Chengye, and there was an app with the letter "Z" on the screen.
"You are the first user of the software." An Chengye said softly. Under the orange light, his eyes seemed to be shining.
Mai Xiaoshu happily opened the app, and suddenly a little person wearing yellow clothes and a bun-like hairdo flew down from the right side of the screen. A pair of beautiful wings flashed behind her, carrying her down from the sky. When she landed on the ground, her eyes blinked, which was very cute. She then waved the fairy wand in her hand, and countless furry animals surrounded her from both sides of the screen.
"Wow, so cute! But I feel like I've seen this cartoon character somewhere before." Mai Xiaoshu raised his head and looked at An Chengye in confusion.
The result was a slap from An Chengye: "Idiot, that's you!"
Mai Xiaoshu's eyes widened in surprise.
"You were dressed like this when I first met you."
The atmosphere was suddenly filled with pink bubbles...
At this time, the doorbell rang. The two regained their composure, looked at each other, and said in unison: "Who is it?"
It's six in the morning. Who would ring the doorbell at this time?
Mai Xiaoshu looked out through the peephole and unexpectedly found that it was Song Feifei and a man in black.
A few minutes later.
"I'm sorry, I agreed to do that kind of thing because of Jiang Xingye's inducement." Miyamaru Tomo knelt on the ground and apologized to the three people sitting opposite him.
Song Feifei looked at Gong Wanzhi with a look of disappointment, and sighed: "This guy suddenly called me and said that he didn't want to hide anymore, so I brought him here to apologize to you. Chengye, Xiaoshu, what do you decide to do with him?"
"I'm here to make amends. I hope you can give me another chance."
"Make amends?" Mai Xiaoshu asked back.
"In fact, Jiang Xingye has been in a state of panic recently. Jim is an actor he found from the United States, but that American is not a good person either. He has video evidence of the transaction with Jiang Xingye and threatened Jiang Xingye to prepare one million for him within three days."
"This is called bad people getting bad consequences. Jiang Xingye deserves it!" Song Feifei stood up for Xiao Shu.
But An Chengye frowned, with a complicated expression, and remained silent, making it impossible to guess what he was thinking at the moment.
"Things have come to this, what does what you said have to do with making amends?" Mai Xiaoshu frowned in confusion.
"As far as I know, Jiang Xingye is already raising money. The video is a great threat to him. If we can find a way to get the video, wouldn't it prove that everything is Jiang Xingye's conspiracy? Jim will definitely put the video in the place he thinks is the safest. Maybe we can ask animals for help and sneak into Jim's activity area to find evidence!"
An Chengye, who had been silent for a long time, calmed down, looked at Mai Xiaoshu with a star-like gaze and said, "Miyamaru Tomo is right. We must get the video. As for whether to make it public, we will discuss it later."
"Yeah!" The four of them nodded in unison. They quickly found his exact location - a local five-star hotel. Then they asked the nearby birds to follow him, and finally saw him put a USB flash drive into the room safe.
On the morning of the day when Jim and Jiang Xingye agreed to make the transaction, Mai Xiaoshu changed into the hotel cleaning staff's clothes and pushed a cleaning cart along the corridor. Jim lived in the presidential suite on the top floor of the hotel.
Mai Xiaoshu walked calmly, and An Chengye's voice came from the Bluetooth headset hanging on his ear: "Jim went into the bathroom."
At this time, An Chengye was standing on the top floor of the building opposite the hotel. He was observing everything in the room through his mobile phone. The picture on the mobile phone was transmitted from outside the suite window by a bird with a micro camera.
“Got it.” Mai Xiaoshu looked around vigilantly and only sneaked into the room after making sure that there was no one around.
There was a sound of water splashing in the bathroom, Jim should be taking a shower. Mai Xiaoshu soon found the safe under the TV cabinet, and Bird had memorized the password when she watched Jim unlock the door last night, so she successfully opened the safe door.
Sure enough, I saw a silver USB flash drive lying inside.
"who is it?"
Just when everything was going smoothly, Jim's voice came from the bathroom. Just two simple words made Mai Xiaoshu break out in a cold sweat. She hurriedly put the USB drive into her pocket, stood up, suppressed her nervousness, and lowered her head to tidy up the quilt on the bed .
When the person in the restroom came out, Mai Xiaoshu lowered his head and said in a low voice, "Sir, room service."
Jim looked suspiciously at the middle-aged woman in work clothes, holding a sheet in her hand, and looking respectful. Fortunately, she had made preparations in advance. Song Feifei was afraid of such a mistake, so she put on old-age makeup for Mai Xiaoshu before she went out. She now looked at least 40 years old, and there was no sense of disobedience in the hotel cleaner's clothes.
"How can you just walk into someone's room?" Jim didn't seem to think much about it, but just complained a few words in an unhappy tone.
"There is no sign on the door. I knocked on the door just now, but no one answered. I thought you had gone out." Mai Xiaoshu said the lines he had prepared in advance.
Jim waved his hand and didn't care much: "Since you're here, help me clean up the room. Here, a tip." After that, Jim threw a five-dollar bill.
Although Mai Xiaoshu's heart was pounding, he still pretended to be happy and took the money: "Okay, sir."
Half an hour later.
After tidying up the room, Mai Xiaosu walked out of the hotel with a sore back.
Suddenly, an anxious voice came from not far away. Before she could see who it was, he held her tightly in his arms : "I was scared to death. Did that guy do anything to you?"
The person who came let him go. Yes, it was An Chengye. He looked at Mai Xiaoshu in panic, wanting to see if she was injured.
"I'm fine. I just pretended too well. He really thought I was a cleaner and asked me to help him clean up. Why are you sweating so much?"
An Chengye was breathing heavily, sweat dripping from his forehead, as if he had just finished a sports meet, and his face was turning red and white.
"I was afraid something happened to you and wanted to rescue you, but the elevator in the building was broken, so I had to run down from the top floor."
Hearing An Chengye's breathless answer, Mai Xiaoshu looked at the building opposite in surprise. Roughly estimating, the building must have at least 50 floors!
"I'm sorry, I was so nervous just now that I forgot to tell you I was safe through the headphones." She apologized, but when she thought about An Chengye running down the 50-story building because he was worried about her, she couldn't help but feel a little happy in her heart.
