At this moment, Oliver, who lived alone on the twelfth floor, was also having trouble falling asleep. He was troubled by the recruitment task and wanted to get up and write a plan. Then he thought about Jenny and sighed in his heart.
The recruitment plan can be discussed slowly tomorrow, and he is thinking more about Miss Jenny. Oliver is an honest man. Because he was born in Victoria, he knows a lot of things, but knowing does not prevent him from being shocked.
Miss Olicia is the employer, the client, and Jenny is the employee, the client. The two of them...
Moreover, judging from the situation, Jenny was completely in the active position. I didn't expect that Miss Jenny, who was usually lively and generous, would be so unambiguous in such matters.
Although according to regulations, work reports are required to be detailed, Oliver feels that it is better to keep this matter secret.
……
The next morning, Bai Lang was awakened by a knock on the door. She remembered what Miss Qin Liu said last night, so she hurriedly put on her clothes and went to open the door.
"Hi, good morning, Miss Olicia." Qin Liu stood at the door with a smile.
"Good morning, come in." Bai Lang rubbed his sleepy eyes which were not fully open yet, and went to wash up. Qin Liu took the initiative to go to the dressing table, took out her props one by one and placed them on the table.
Considering that Miss Qin Liu was still waiting, Bai Lang tried to speed up her washing. After finishing, she wiped her wet hair casually and went to the dressing table to get a hair dryer.
"I'll help you." Qin Liu, who had been waiting for a long time, did not seem anxious at all. She took the hair dryer first and asked Bai Lang to sit on the stool.
Bai Lang had no choice but to do as the other party asked and sit obediently on the stool. She felt her hair being lifted up, and then the buzzing sound of a hair dryer came to her ears.
After only blowing her hair half dry, Qin Liu put down the hair dryer and sprayed something on her hair a few times, and a faint violet scent filled the air.
"Should I prefer a stronger or a weaker flavor?" Qin Liu asked with a smile.
Actually, it doesn’t matter if you don’t want it, White Wolf thought. She said, “A lighter one. The smell is too strong for my nose.”
"I had forgotten. Your Rupert has a very sensitive nose. That's it." Qin Liu picked up the hair dryer again and turned it to the lowest setting. He blew it a few times, then changed to a comb and got busy.
At this moment, she remembered her thoughts from last night, and was worried that she might have led Miss Olicia astray, so she spoke less. But some things are more difficult to avoid, and under close contact, Qin Liu's mind was a little confused again, but this situation did not last long, and she was immersed in her work and forgot everything.
Volume 4: Chapter 81: Trends
Qin Liu combed his clothes for a while and found a small problem. After hesitating for a long time, he finally couldn't help asking: "Miss Olicia, how about you take off your coat?"
"why."
"It's not easy for me to comb my hair."
"Okay then." White Wolf thought that the room wasn't cold anyway, so he took off his coat and threw it on the bed, leaving only a T-shirt on.
Qin Liu was standing up and looking down. She felt that the current situation caused her some stimulation, so she shifted her gaze to the sides and placed it on Miss White Wolf's arm.
Well, the smooth and white arms look very nice, but what is the red thing on the left arm that is slightly covered by the short sleeves? It looks like a gem, an ornament? Why hide the ornament? No, gems should not be such irregular shapes.
Qin Liu was not stupid. She suddenly thought of a possibility and her hands froze.
"What's wrong?" White Wolf turned his head and asked in confusion, "Is your hair done?"
"No, no." Qin Liu forced a smile and continued to comb her hair. She looked at Bai Lang's arms many times and gradually confirmed her guess. Her heart was in turmoil.
Just yesterday, Oliver and she were standing on the standpoint of ordinary people, and enthusiastically discussing a wave of infected people. They had no idea that the real infected people were right in front of them, and they just listened to their self-righteous words silently. As long as you put yourself in their shoes, you can understand what kind of harm that is.
Bai Lang sensed that Qin Liu was in a bad mood, so he asked, "Qin Liu, are you worried about something? I feel like you haven't said much today."
Qin Liu shook his head and asked hesitantly: "No, Miss Olicia, I saw your arm..."
"Arm?" White Wolf subconsciously looked at his left arm and frowned. The Originium crystal was a little bigger than before, and it would be exposed if he wasn't careful. It seemed that he must not wear short sleeves when going out in the future.
Her heart was full of doubts, so she asked, "Didn't Outcast tell you about this?"
"No." Qin Liu said with difficulty, "You are a noble of Ursus, we didn't even think about it."
Miss Qin Liu's sudden respectful tone made Bai Lang feel sad. She realized that she was negligent. Miss Qin Liu was not a true member of Rhodes Island and was probably not used to getting along with the infected.
She forced a smile and pretended to be carefree: "Perhaps, in the eyes of Ms. Outcast, the infected are no different from the non-infected, so I forgot to remind you."
In front of many ordinary people, Originium crystals would cause panic. Thinking of this, White Wolf planned to cover the Originium crystals, so he stood up and went to get his coat, while apologetically saying, "I'm sorry, I didn't think so much before. If it's inconvenient... I will pay attention to the distance. Well, thank you for helping me with my hair, I can do it myself in the future."
Qin Liu knew that Miss Olicia had misunderstood her. She was not resentful because of the other party's identity as an infected person. It was just that she suddenly learned about the situation, and all kinds of emotions such as shock, heartache, regret, and worry were intertwined at once, making her completely at a loss.
She knew she should say something to comfort her, but she didn't know how to start. She just stood there as if frozen, watching Miss Olicia pick up her coat without saying a word.
The joke ceremony last night suddenly appeared in her mind: the other party was standing here, racking his brains to recall the lines, pretending to be serious and saying, "You already have compassion, honesty, sacrifice... eight virtues." As if it was a sarcasm, at this moment, Qin Liu suddenly felt so guilty that she wanted to cry.
She didn't know how disappointed Miss Olivia was in her, and she herself was extremely disappointed in herself.
Jane Willow, there is no one worse than you.
The white wolf heard some movement behind him, looked back in confusion, and then was thrown onto his back.
Miss Qin Liu rested her arms on the bed, her golden hair spread out and fell on Bai Lang's cheek. Bai Lang's nostrils moved, and she smelled the sweet and fragrant scent of violets: "What are you doing, Miss Qin Liu?"
"I want to prove myself, Olicia. I'm not the person you think I am."
Bai Lang easily understood what the other party meant. He was happy, but also a little confused. Does a personal opinion need to be proven? And how to prove it? Isn't the posture of the two people a little strange?
She saw a strange smile on Qin Liu's gentle face, and suddenly felt uneasy. Sure enough, the next moment, Miss Qin Liu used her elbows to support her body, and the distance between them suddenly shortened a lot, almost sticking together.
The panicked White Wolf was about to take some action immediately, but Miss Qin Liu was faster. She gave White Wolf a light kiss on the lips.
The white wolf only felt a little chill between his lips, and his mind went blank.
Why did things turn out like this?
Qin Liu was also frightened by her own behavior. This was not her original intention, but now she could only convince herself that the lip kiss was part of the etiquette of the ancient Victorian aristocracy. Although it is not often used now, it is not a problem to have a Renaissance occasionally. Isn't it often done like this in novels?
"You're not angry?" she asked cautiously.
Bai Lang was so shocked that she was speechless. She happened to have read about ancient Victorian etiquette in a book. At that time, she found it incredible and difficult to accept. In comparison, even the kiss on the cheek seemed restrained and implicit.
How could she have guessed that she would actually have the opportunity to experience it herself? In fact, she was not angry at all now. Her heart was filled with confusion. After listening to Qin Liu's question, she just shook her head.
I will never, ever, ever come to a place like Victoria again! The people here are horrible!
"Don't do this again." Qin Liu heard Miss Olicia say in a low voice. She thought she was forgiven, so she nodded happily and felt that the person under her was becoming more and more intimate.
She felt a little tired of supporting herself on her elbows, so she turned sideways and lay down naturally.
Bai Lang didn't feel that Miss Qin Liu was that heavy, but she just felt a little breathless on her chest. She tapped Qin Liu's back with her right hand.
"What's wrong?" Qin Liu breathed into her ear.
"Move aside a bit, don't you feel crowded?"
"I don't think so." Qin Liu smiled ambiguously, then moved her body away a little.
"Are all you Victorians like this? So..." White Wolf blushed, not knowing how to describe it.
"Open?" Qin Liu said in a cheerful tone, "Maybe. In front of people they want to get close to, Victorians are never conservative, unlike Yan people, who are timid and shy when they don't agree with something."
Bai Lang felt that he was being implied, and was embarrassed, so he asked for no reason: "Are you used to this kind of atmosphere?"
"It's a habit. I like my country, I like its culture, I like its ancient side, and I also like its passionate side. Hehe, I like you too."
"Don't talk like that."
"You misunderstood." Qin Liu put his face against Bai Lang's cheek and murmured, "It's the kind of love between good friends. If you think wrongly, I will be very distressed."
Volume 4: Chapter 82 'Fall'
Considering that he might need to go to the college to do something in the spotlight today, Oliver sprayed his hair with styling spray, and after carefully tidying up his appearance, he went downstairs to find Jenny to make some plans in advance.
He walked to Jenny's door and knocked a few times, but heard no response.
Went out to buy breakfast? Or... Oliver swallowed in disbelief, didn't come back all night?
It was probably impossible to buy breakfast, as Jenny always ate with everyone in the base. Thinking of this, Oliver felt a little nervous. He took difficult steps and moved to the door of Miss Olicia's room. He took a deep breath and knocked gently.
"Oliver?" The person who answered was indeed Qin Liu. "It's not very convenient now. Can you wait a moment? I'll open the door for you later?"
Inconvenient? Oliver suddenly felt that he understood the hidden meaning. He suddenly found that his position was very awkward and seemed a little redundant.
Forget it, forget it, he thought, I am here to work, just do my job well.
He shouted to the room, "You guys are busy. I'll go to the restaurant downstairs to order breakfast. You can just go over there later."
"Don't worry, don't worry, let's go together." Qin Liu finished drawing Bailang's eyebrows, put the tools on the dressing table, and hurried over to open the door.
When Oliver heard Qin Liu's footsteps, he guessed that the other party would most likely open the door to let him in. He was so scared that he shuddered and turned away.
The man in the room was Rhodes Island's partner, an Ursus noble. As a knowledgeable Victoria native and a veteran employee of Rhodes Island, he naturally knew that he should never go in at this time and under these circumstances.
Qin Liu opened the door and looked around, but there was no trace of Oliver in the corridor. She was usually lively and had a lot of contact with Oliver. She knew that this seemingly taciturn guy was actually not simple-minded. In this situation, the other party's misunderstanding deepened again, and most likely he would think that she and Miss Olicia...
If something really happened, it would be fine, but the reality is that she did nothing and was misunderstood for no reason. It was really... too unfair. Miss Jane Willow was obviously pure and decent, how could she encounter such a thing! ?
Qin Liu's face turned red with anger, but there was nothing she could do. She could only close the door helplessly and go back to her room.
"Why doesn't Oliver come over?" The ignorant White Wolf turned his head and asked in confusion.
"He may have misunderstood again." Qin Liu said distressedly, "He is the kind of guy who doesn't like to talk and has a rich inner world that is the most troublesome."
This made Bai Lang confused: "Misunderstanding? What's there to be misunderstood about?"
Qin Liu was thinking about whether it was possible to explain it clearly to Oliver. When he heard what Bai Lang said, he didn't think much about it and blurted out: "I'm just afraid that he will think that we did that kind of thing. Otherwise, why would he not even dare to enter the door? Maybe he is afraid of smelling something strange."
Bai Lang was even more confused. She thought she had read many books and had a wide range of knowledge, but why couldn't she understand a word Miss Qin Liu said?
She didn't know that Qin Liu was feeling anxious because of the previous sentence. After all, it was still very unsettling to accidentally speak out one's true feelings.
However, Qin Liu soon discovered that Miss Olicia did not understand at all. Not only was she confused, she also asked questions that seemed cute and silly to her: "What? Isn't the room filled with the only scent of your perfume? Violet, is this smell strange? Is he allergic to it?"
Miss Olicia, you don’t want to know the answer, Qin Liu thought secretly.
She did not intend to go into detail, but a strange excitement took control of her.
She bent down, put her hands on her knees, and approached the white wolf intently, saying in a seductive tone: "This is a secret. If you want to know, I will tell you quietly."
Suddenly, White Wolf's heart was filled with alarm. He immediately stood up from the stool, stepped back a few steps, and said nervously, "Business is more important. We can't let Oliver wait any longer. We should set off now."
Bai Lang was actually very curious about what Miss Qin Liu didn't say. She really couldn't understand what else could happen between two girls besides kissing and hugging. Just these were already too much, okay?
On the way to the restaurant, Qin Liu fell into self-reflection again.
She knew very well that she had almost fallen again, but falling was not the saddest thing. The saddest thing was that while she was clear-headed and criticizing the past, she could foresee that she would fall again in the future, and even the most severe self-criticism seemed pale and powerless. Moreover, because of her clear mind at this moment, she could realize more deeply that the so-called falling was actually something that could not be escaped, at least, as an ordinary human being, she could not escape it.
Miss Qin Liu is currently thinking that she is a bad person and needs to stay away from Miss Olisia.
The two of them walked to the restaurant downstairs with their own thoughts. Oliver was already waiting there. There were three identical portions of food on the table where he was sitting, all of which were pastries and bread.
Seeing the two people coming over, Oliver waved and said, "I don't know if Miss Olicia has any dietary restrictions, so I ordered these simple things for everyone."
"This is how I usually eat breakfast." Bai Lang sat down with a smile, picked up the knife and fork, cut the pastry into small pieces, and then put them into his mouth one by one with the fork.
"Olicia, is there anything you particularly like to eat?" Qin Liu asked while eating.
"Probably not. I like to eat food I've never eaten before. It doesn't necessarily taste good, I'm just curious." White Wolf thought for a moment and added, "But it can't be sandworm legs or something like that. I never eat bugs."
"Yes, that's right." Qin Liu nodded repeatedly, "I don't eat it either. I really don't understand why anyone would eat that kind of thing!"
Oliver swallowed a piece of bread and sighed.
"What's wrong?" Qin Liu asked.
"Nothing, I just sighed a little. The charcoal-grilled sandworm legs on our ship taste very good. It's a pity that I can't eat them anymore after returning to Victoria. You really can try them if you have the chance."
After the meal, Bailang asked the waiter to take away the plates, tidy up the table, and discussed today's recruitment mission with Qin Liu and Oliver.
She told the two of them about Miss Ke Lan, and after some discussion, they developed an action plan.
Since this is a formal action of three people, they plan to formally register the company at the Victoria National University this morning, apply for a recruitment location, and then separately inquire about Miss 'Ke Lan's' news. They will then use Miss 'Ke Lan' as a breakthrough point to learn more about the inside story and seek other recruitment opportunities.
Volume 4: Chapter 83: Yan Nation's 'Saint'
Since the documents were complete and Bai Lang himself had noble status, the company's entry procedures were handled extremely smoothly. After the school staff registered the information, they took Bai Lang and others to the recruitment building.
The so-called recruitment building is actually converted from an old teaching building. It has five floors, each with more than a dozen classrooms. The company can choose a classroom as the recruitment location. The maximum recruitment period cannot exceed 7 days. The venue rental fee is Longmen coins per day.
This fee made Bai Lang secretly groan, but she also knew that it was actually very cheap. By the time of the official recruitment in May, the venue fee would increase many times.
After all, April is not yet graduation time, and not many people are willing to look for jobs in advance. The school does not allow companies to advertise on campus, so recruitment is extremely difficult and the cost is low. But it is different in May.
But no matter how difficult it is, White Wolf dare not delay until May. By then, all the giants like Rhine Life, Rhodes Island, Dagu Group, and Black Steel International will come together, and her small mining company will only be able to pick up what others have left.
What makes her relatively relieved is that if the right talents are recruited, the school will process the graduation procedures in advance based on the students' credits. As long as their grades are not at the bottom, they can basically graduate smoothly in advance, which relieves one of their worries.
After entering the recruitment building, Bai Lang discovered that there were many people who shared the same idea as him. Most of them were small, unknown companies. The entire first and second floors were already occupied, but there were hardly any students in the corridors. It was deserted and extremely desolate.
