Chapter 9: Serious men are the most handsome
In his previous life, Lu Yiming specialized in outsourcing for software companies, and he was very familiar with finding loopholes and installing patches.
Twenty years later, there are coders like Lu Yiming all over the streets. They are the type of waste talents who can be sent to society at any time after the age of 35.
In his previous life, he worked in a software outsourcing company and had a miserable life. He had to compete with the Indians in terms of labor costs and even had to kneel down and call the foreign software companies daddy.
Not only in life, but also at work, you have to be a bootlicker.
But in 1998, people like him who were proficient in Nmap technology were rarer than giant pandas.
It's like the era of cold weapons, when a tough guy driving a tank suddenly breaks in and starts killing people indiscriminately.
Lu Yiming had been writing code for half an hour when Zhu Hanwen came over, wiping his hands and saying, "Xiaoming, it's time to eat. Go wash your hands."
Lin Yuzhen, who had been learning from Lu Yiming for half an hour but was still confused, stood up abruptly when she heard the word "dinner is ready". When she stretched out her white and tender arms, her school uniform was lifted up, revealing her cute belly button and her graceful figure. However, her expression was a little sour, and she pouted and muttered, "Uncle, you actually called him first instead of me!"
Zhu Hanwen didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and quickly coaxed him a few words: "Yes, yes, uncle is wrong, Xiaozhen, you come to eat too."
Lu Yiming was in a critical situation and had no time to eat. He kept typing on the keyboard with his hands, staring at the screen, and said, "I'm not hungry. You guys eat first."
Sun Jiatong arranged the dishes and leaned over to shout, "You are growing up now, how can you not eat? Put the food here first, you can eat it after you are done with your work."
Lu Yiming did not insist and immediately agreed: "Okay, I'll go eat after I finish writing this."
After being reborn, everything was both familiar and unfamiliar. With a mind in his forties or fifties, he could no longer be 100% compatible with his teenage classmates. However, from his parents and his class teacher Zhu Hanwen and his wife, Lu Yiming felt the long-lost warmth and touch.
Although the food was simple, Lu Yiming ate it with relish.
When Lu Yiming went to get the third bowl of rice from the pressure cooker, Lin Yuzhen couldn't help but say, "I didn't expect you to be such a big eater."
Seeing the pressure cooker almost empty, Lu Yiming calmly pushed the rice back from the spoon, turned around and glanced at Lin Yuzhen, and said, "Who asked Master's wife to cook such delicious food? You eat so little, do you have any problem with Teacher Zhu and Master's wife's cooking skills?"
"you……"
Lin Yuzhen was speechless. She picked up the chopsticks angrily and ate the rice violently, as if regarded the food in the bowl as her mortal enemy.
Zhu Hanwen and Sun Jiatong couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Lin Yuzhen grew up in the care of the couple. She is extroverted and very strong-willed. She would argue even when things were unreasonable. From childhood to adulthood, few people could get the upper hand over Lin Yuzhen verbally.
Unexpectedly, in just one day, Lin Yuzhen was repeatedly left speechless by Lu Yiming.
This is really the case of one thing conquering another.
"Don't talk while eating or sleeping. You two should stop talking." Seeing that Lin Yuzhen had been holding it in for a long time and didn't know how to respond to Lu Yiming, Zhu Hanwen quickly spoke up to help Lin Yuzhen out.
After dinner, it was almost time for class. Lu Yiming looked at the code on the computer desktop. Although he wanted to finish it all night, he was still very rational and saved the code and turned off the computer.
Before leaving, Lu Yiming said, "Teacher, I have turned off the computer. I will come back tomorrow to continue studying."
The next day, during the afternoon class, Li Quanwang looked at Lu Yiming unhappily: "You kid, did you take the wrong medicine? You ran outside after school these two days, leaving your close comrade here. Where is our revolutionary friendship?"
Lu Yiming didn't want to reveal too much of his plans to others for the time being, so he had to explain vaguely: "I have something to do."
"What can you do for me?"
Li Quanwang looked resentful, thinking that his best friend was hiding something from him. They used to talk about everything, but Lu Yiming didn't say anything, so he didn't force it. He subconsciously changed the subject: "Tomorrow is Saturday, where are you going to play?"
Lu Yiming shook his head: "I have already made plans for this weekend. I will go to my homeroom teacher's house. Studying makes me happy."
"Oh my god, you are not confused because of the fever, right?"
Li Quanwang put his hand on Lu Yiming's forehead, looking surprised: "On weekdays, you are the most wild boy in the class. Now you suddenly say you want to get out of trouble and become a good man. Who would believe you?"
"Whether you believe it or not, I believe it anyway." Lu Yiming smiled and slapped Li Quanwang's dirty hands away.
Li Quanwang said disdainfully: "Tsk."
He felt that Lu Yiming was absolutely talking nonsense and being hypocritical, trying to establish himself as a good student in front of the girls in the class to make his presence felt.
By the time school is over, Lu Yiming's true colors will be revealed.
At 5:30 in the afternoon, the students happily packed their bags and prepared to go home.
Lu Yiming rushed out of the classroom with a workbook in his hand.
Li Quanwang quickly put down the work in his hands and chased after him quietly.
When he saw Lu Yiming leave the classroom and immediately meet up with Lin Yuzhen from the next class, he understood instantly.
"What a scumbag! No wonder he said he didn't like Wu Qiuya. It turns out he was flirting with Lin Yuzhen, the beauty from Class 7. He's so cunning. He even hid such a big thing from me. How mean!"
Lu Yiming and Lin Yuzhen came to the teachers' dormitory. Zhu Hanwen was not at home, only Sun Jiatong was busy in the kitchen.
Noticing the movement at the door, Sun Jiatong said, "You guys are here? Sit down and pour yourself some water. I'm cooking."
Lin Yuzhen didn't see Zhu Hanwen, so she asked, "Where's my uncle?"
"He went out to buy some fruit."
Sun Jiatong was still busy with his own things, chatting with Lin Yuzhen from time to time.
Lu Yiming greeted him, then went into the utility room, turned on his computer and started typing code.
Compared with the first generation WIN95 version, WIN98 has made further improvements in graphics and operation. Overall, the operation is becoming more and more user-friendly, and the graphics are getting better and better.
However, as the first version of WIN98, it still has many problems, especially the frequent blue screen crashes, which has not yet been solved.
And this is Lu Yiming's opportunity.
At that time, computer software technology was still in its infancy. Even WIN98, a high-tech product in the eyes of ordinary people, was full of loopholes in Lu Yiming's view. What he had to do was to use his professional skills to patch this software.
The poor student who usually acts carefree is now fully focused and attentive. His fingers move very fast and the keyboard makes crackling sounds under his hands.
This seriousness and concentration added a bit of masculine calmness and capability to Lu Yiming's already young and handsome face, making him extremely charming.
Even a beautiful and arrogant girl like Lin Yuzhen couldn't help but take a few more glances.
