She nodded desperately.

Volume 4: Chapter 135: Ordinary Recruitment Meeting II

The Liberians were the first to leave the classroom.

Immediately afterwards, others also left hesitantly.

White Wolf heard them talking to Oliver, who was standing at the door.

"I'm sorry, but I think I need to think about this more carefully."

"Sorry, I thought so too."

"We'll meet again someday."

……

It’s nothing, Bai Lang kept repeating, it’s really nothing, it’s just that the recruitment failed, it’s just a small matter, I have already made preparations, why should I be sad about something that will not succeed anyway.

She suddenly saw Ina walk up to Oliver and say something after everyone left, then she also walked out.

Is Aina leaving too? Even Aina is leaving?

It’s nothing. It’s nothing.

Her lips trembled and she tried her best to control her emotions. She slowly walked to the window and looked downstairs with a dull look.

The weather was just right today, the sun was shining, and the pond on campus was sparkling, but Bai Lang felt chills and a strong sense of powerlessness lingered around her.

Does what she does really make sense?

Qin Liu didn't know how to comfort Olicia. An hour ago, she came here full of hope and longing. Who could have thought that she would encounter such a thing.

When she saw the other person's distraught look, she wished she could take his place, but she knew that she was not the other person, not the one being criticized. She could only guess, but she could understand the other person's feelings anyway.

As for what Liberi said, she knew from the White Wolf's expression that it was true, but strangely, she believed him even more because of it. She didn't understand why, perhaps it was because she felt his pain, or maybe she had begun to trust Olisia unconditionally.

Before what happened today, Qin Liu had seriously considered a problem, which was to find an opportunity to explain that she refused to join Ice Stone Mining. She thought she was a useless person to Olisia. But now, all the people the other party needed had left, and she could no longer say that.

She walked silently behind the white wolf and stood by the window with him without saying a word. She did not look outside the window, her eyes were always on the white wolf.

How she wanted to hold Olivia's hand and tell her that she was by her side, but she didn't dare to act. She was afraid that any inappropriate action would lead to worse consequences, so she just watched silently from the side.

An unknown amount of time had passed, Qin Liu was thinking about many things, her eyes gradually became blurred, and she suddenly realized that Miss Olisia's hair was not very neat, maybe because she didn't comb it carefully in the morning.

She couldn't help but take out the small dressing box she carried with her, took out a small brown wooden comb from it, gently lifted Olicia's hair, and combed it carefully.

Olicia seemed to have lost consciousness and continued to look out the window indifferently.

After standing in the room for a while, Oliver felt that it would be better for him to go out first. He silently left the recruitment classroom, lit a cigarette in the empty corridor, and then sighed heavily.

As a veteran employee of Rhodes Island, he believed in the judgment of Kal'tsit and Ms. Outcast that Ms. Olicia could not possibly have any connection with the so-called "executioner." However, what Liberi said was not wrong in a sense. The way Ursus dealt with the infected could indeed be described as inhumane.

Although the situation today was accidental, there were also inevitable factors involved. He could only smoke and sigh at the cruel fate.

Oliver thought of Miss Ina, who was the last one to leave. That girl was also very strange. After listening to what the Liberi people said for a long time, she had no intention of leaving. She just said with red eyes that she wanted to go to the bathroom and would come back later. No one knew what the relationship between her and Miss Olicia was.

At this moment, Ina was indeed in the bathroom, talking on the phone with someone.

"Ceylon, the experiment can be done later. Can you come over now?"

"What's wrong? Didn't we agree that I can go there before ten o'clock?"

"It's something serious."

"What's the matter?" Ceylon asked in confusion. She immediately heard Ina's answer, which sounded a little strange.

"They, they wronged Miss Olicia."

Ceylon was not sure if Aina's strange voice was because she was crying, but the mere fact that she might be speaking in a crying tone was enough to make her nervous. She said anxiously, "I know. I'll be there right away. Are you okay?"

"I'm fine." Ina wiped her tears and hung up the phone while Ceylon was giving her many instructions.

From the beginning to the end, Ina firmly believed that Miss Olicia could not be the bad person that Liberi said. She was an infected person who used her body to help her block the attack of the infected body in the critical moment. Why should such a kind person be blamed for the mistakes of others?

She felt like crying just by imagining this happening to herself, and how desperate must Miss Olicia be after enduring such a blow alone?

In the recruitment room, she was so angry at the scene in front of her that she was shaking all over, but she was rational and knew that she could not stand up to defend the other party. She might be the only one who knew that Miss Olicia was infected, and a momentary anger would bring greater trouble to the other party.

Sometimes, reason is a really annoying thing. Because of reason, she couldn't stand up at the critical moment. And because of reason, she realized that there was no point in calling Ceylon to come over.

Will Ceylon's decision change because of her call? Will his hasty response make the other party prejudiced against Miss Olicia?

Ina, you are such a waste. Miss Olisia risked her life to rescue you from the disaster area, but what about you? How can you repay her?

……

In an ordinary house two kilometers away from the National University.

Tianhuo was lying on the sofa in the living room, licking his ice cream leisurely, and asked Bolu beside him casually: "Why can't I see Aina? Isn't today the weekend? Is she in the lab again?"

"No." Bo Lu put down the book in her arms, shook her head and said, "She went to the recruitment meeting."

"Recruitment meeting, why would she go to a place like that?" Tianhuo was stunned for a moment. She remembered that her mentor had told her that he wanted Aina to follow Ceylon to Xiosta. This gave up her idea of ​​luring her to Foxtail. Otherwise, she would have arranged Aina to be by her side a long time ago.

But why did she come to the recruitment meeting again? Was she not going to Xiosta? If so, wouldn't it be better to follow her?

Bo Lu saw Tianhuo's doubts, so he seriously talked about Miss Olisia's story, trying to help Ina prove that this choice was the right one.

However, Tianhuo is not an ordinary college student who has just started out. As a member of the core group of Foxtail, "The Staff of Kings", her knowledge and information channels are far beyond the reach of ordinary people. When Bo Lu was talking to her, she quietly checked the information of "Ice Stone Mining" and Olicia.

After Bo Lu finished telling their story, she saw Tian Huo standing up and looking like she was about to go out, so she asked curiously, "Sister Tian Huo, where are you going?"

"Go to the academy and bring Aina back."

Volume 4: Chapter 136 "Conservative" Skyfire

Based on the information he had learned, Tianhuo had good reasons to bring Aina back.

First of all, Bingshi Mining is a new company. From the perspective of its operating model, it is engaged in the traditional source stone mining business and has no foundation for scientific research at all. The purpose of Olicia coming here to recruit researchers is probably to set up a research institute.

She could easily deduce that the other party could not have any research plan. Miss Olicia seemed to be an Ursus noble and knew nothing about Originium research. In other words, this company had neither a research foundation nor a suitable research institute manager, nor a clear project goal.

This does not mean that Bingshi Mining cannot be used. In fact, from the perspective of ordinary people looking for a job, Tianhuo still recognizes this company. As long as the salary is paid, no one will have any objections. But the same situation will not work for Aina.

Aina is a true scientific research talent, and should be free to play on a platform that is more suitable for her, rather than wasting her abilities on the trivialities of setting up a laboratory. Tianhuo himself has done related work and knows how difficult and complicated it is to purchase and test instruments, design laboratories, arrange research projects, and adjust the matching of researchers.

Perhaps, there was another important factor that prompted her to make the decision, and that was her selfishness. She had always regarded this extremely talented girl as her own sister, and of course she did not want her to go to faraway Ursus.

Although Tianhuo had a quick temper and sometimes even behaved a little arrogantly, she still cared about the feelings of her sisters. Since Bo Lu didn't understand the inside story, she explained her thoughts to her in a serious tone.

But the strange thing was that today, Bo Lu seemed to have changed his personality. He refused to listen to her and insisted on letting Ina and Miss Olisia be together.

Tianhuo began to get anxious. She looked at her younger sister in confusion. From her strange look as if she wanted to say something but hesitated, she suddenly realized something.

Olicia, Olicia! Isn't this the person that Aina was desperately looking for before?

Her face turned red in an instant, her arms trembled, and the temperature of the whole room rose.

"Bo Lu, tell me, is Aina because..."

Bo Lu shook her head subconsciously. Seeing that Sister Tianhuo was about to explode with anger, she nodded hurriedly.

Through a lot of study, Bo Lu understood more and more things. She had clearly distinguished that Sister Tianhuo was different from ordinary Victorians. Perhaps because of the influence of her family education, she was a standard conservative and held different opinions on some things that were popular with everyone.

Truth cannot be hidden forever. It is impossible to keep this matter a secret from Sister Tianhuo forever. What she needs to do now is to adapt to the situation and try every means to change Sister Tianhuo's mind.

Seeing Bo Lu nod, Tian Huo, who was extremely angry, calmed down instead. She thought about the reason why Aina didn't follow Ceylan to Xiosta, and it turned out to be because of this matter!

If she didn't know Ina's personality, she would probably think that she was seduced by Miss Olicia. But because she knew her very well, she realized that Ina had definitely gotten herself into this trouble.

It's just shameless.

"Bo Lu, come with me." Tian Huo looked ahead with a determined look, "I must get your sister Aina back today."

It's over, Bo Lu thought sadly. Sister Tianhuo was too angry and got into a state. Even if she wanted to help Aina, things would probably be difficult to handle. However, as long as she went with Sister Tianhuo, maybe she could continue to find a way to save the situation. She thought to herself, nodded quickly, and ran out with Tianhuo.

……

On the fifth floor of the National University Recruitment Building, in the recruitment room where Ice Stone Mining is located.

Bailang suddenly turned his head to look at Qinliu. Miss Vaifan, who was combing her hair, was stunned for a moment, one hand still pulling Bailang's hair.

"Do you think I'm sad?" White Wolf asked seriously with his eyes wide open.

Qin Liu nodded subconsciously, and then she saw an angry blush on Miss Olicia's face, and she asked quickly: "Do you still think I'm so sad that I want to jump into that pond?"

Qin Liu was about to nod, but suddenly realized the problem and shook his head hastily: "No, absolutely not."

"No, you have." Miss Olicia said angrily and anxiously, "You must think that I have lost my balance and am full of self-pity. Ah, do you still think that I am about to cry?"

"Really not." Qin Liu wanted to explain herself eagerly, but Miss Olicia didn't give her a chance.

"I won't listen, I won't listen. Even if you have it, you must think I was embarrassing just now, and you're going to laugh at me."

Qin Liu felt that whatever she said was wrong, so she simply stopped talking and just looked at the white wolf with her innocent big eyes.

Perhaps it was her self-recovery after making a fuss for a while, or perhaps it was because she noticed Qin Liu's pitiful expression, Miss White Wolf looked at Qin Liu's face and suddenly laughed. She stretched out her arms and hugged Qin Liu tightly, rubbing her cheek against the other's face.

"Thank you, Miss Qin Liu, thank you for being by my side just now."

Qin Liu, who was suddenly treated specially, enjoyed the soft touch in his arms, feeling as if he had fallen into a dream, and said vaguely, "No, it's okay, it's my duty."

Bai Lang's hand passed through Qin Liu's long hair and rested on her back. She suddenly remembered the quick glance she took when she was changing clothes in the morning. Her right hand subconsciously wanted to touch her gently, but before she could take any actual action, she came to her senses and realized that she was thinking about something strange. A blush appeared on her cheeks.

Her original intention was to hug Miss Qin Liu out of gratitude, just for a moment and then separate immediately, but she didn't want Qin Liu to see her blushing face, so she was in a dilemma and had to hold Miss Qin Liu tightly.

It was not until Bai Lang adjusted his state and let go of Qin Liu with a normal expression that half a minute passed. This shows Bai Lang's gratitude to Miss Qin Liu.

However, when Miss Qin Liu recalled the incident again and again afterwards, she insisted that the two of them hugged each other for less than five seconds. It is not known whether it lasted more than three seconds. Good times are always so short and disappear in the blink of an eye.

Although the time was short, Qin Liu had already begun to crave that wonderful feeling. She found that being passive was more refreshing than being active. It would be great if Miss Olisia could hug her for a while every day.

People are always greedy. Once they get a little, they want more. In fact, Miss Qin Liu was uneasy for a long time because of this little episode.

Volume 4: Chapter 137: Never Met

Qin Liu looked at Olicia, who looked normal, and asked hesitantly after a while:

"So, you are, uh, not angry anymore?"

"I wasn't angry the whole time. I was just a little, a little sad just now." White Wolf said in a complicated tone.

"What about the recruitment meeting?" Qin Liu walked to the desk, picked up the list on it, and muttered to himself in a depressed mood, "Everyone on the list has left."

She really couldn't do anything right, she thought silently. The recruitment meeting was already settled, and the task assigned to her by Rhodes Island was destined to be unfinished.

Unlike the melancholy Miss Qin Liu, Bai Lang has become more open-minded because she has let go of everything. Her purpose of coming to Victoria is to recruit the best researchers. If this method doesn't work, she can resort to social recruitment as a second best option. As long as the salary is in place, there will be no shortage of applicants.

The only regret is that the quality of talent is difficult to guarantee.

She comforted Qin Liu and said, "Recruitment is no longer a big deal. There will be other ways. We have tried our best. Some things are beyond our control."

Qin Liu sighed, looked at the list unwillingly, then nodded and put it on the table.

……

Ina adjusted her mood and thought of a lot of comforting words. She walked to the door of the recruitment room, quietly greeted Oliver, pushed the door open quietly and walked in.

However, the scene before her made her brain temporarily unable to process it.

Miss Olicia was sitting on the table looking at her phone with a calm expression on her face, her legs with perfect curves dangling leisurely in the air. Miss Qin Liu was shrouded in a melancholy temperament, silently organizing documents on the other side.

This is different from what I thought before!

When White Wolf saw Aina come into the room, he waved to her and jumped off the table.

"Ms. Olicia, you..." Ina asked in surprise and suspicion.

"Are you worried about me too?" Bai Lang smiled and said casually, "Thank you, Aina. But I've let it go. I'm doing my own thing. Why should I listen to other people's doubts? As long as I have a clear conscience, I don't care what others say."

Ina immediately understood the other person's idea. She nodded vigorously with shining eyes, and a strong sense of pride arose in her heart. She couldn't explain why. It was obviously Miss Olicia's own business, but she was happy as if she had won a victory.

"Ms. Olivia, I'm different from them. I will definitely be with you." Ina quickly reminded her.

"Of course, of course."

Bai Lang's mind became active again. She took Aina's hand and said sincerely, "Aina, I still have to remind you that the Ice Stone Mining's Origin Stone Research Institute is still in the planning stage. Nothing is certain. The only thing I can guarantee is financial support. Have you really thought it through?"

"I've thought about it. In fact, I'm quite familiar with laboratories and research institutes, and I've anticipated this a long time ago." Ina said embarrassedly.
