"I think so."

……

After a moment of silence, Miss White Wolf spoke again: "After you return to the Reunion Movement, you must be careful in various missions."

Tallulah said, "You too, don't make yourself too tired."

"I'm a lazy bum, and you're actually worried that I'm too tired."

"I wish you were really a lazy bum."

"You...you really don't have to worry."

"Well, never mind so much, tell me more about your story. I want to hear what kind of work you do in Bingshi."

“Work is boring.”

"I have to listen even if I'm bored."

"Okay, okay, let me think about it. Well, let me tell you about the draft agreement first. It's troublesome..."

……

Time passed without stopping. While Miss White Wolf was talking, she kept looking at her phone unconsciously, calculating every minute and second she had.

Miss Dragon Girl listened silently and heard the uneasiness in the other person's tone. The feeling of lingering in her heart prompted her to hug him tighter and tighter.

The feeling of sadness also grew and spread. Miss Longnu didn't understand why. Every time they parted, she would miss them, but she had never felt such a strong sadness.

Perhaps it was because, this time when they separated, the relationship between them was not the same as before.

Chapter 2023: Fate 03-03-12 00:02:

On December 1096, 12 in the Terra calendar, the Swordsman Tallulah Atrias completed her visit to the city of Koros and headed south again.

From the perspective of later generations, this trip to Koros was just a trivial episode in the history books of the empire, but this small event attracted the close attention of historians.

Northern scholars believe that during this operation, the Sword Bearer reached a crucial agreement with the Imperial Marquis, and this agreement directly determined the Marquis' attitude and indirectly affected the course of the subsequent war.

Southern scholars believe that under the circumstances at the time, it was impossible and unreasonable for the Imperial Marquis to sign an important agreement with the Sword Bearer unless there were uncontrollable factors involved.

Historians are divided into two camps and have been arguing endlessly about this case, but no definite answer has been found from beginning to end, and history itself seems to have never had the real truth.

……

The evening of June 12.

Longmen City.

In an elegant room with paintings from the East and Yan countries hanging on the walls.

Miss Ceylon took up her pen and drew another circle on the calendar.

Lin Yuxia put a slice of orange into her mouth, glanced at Xilan, and said casually: "You made my calendar look like a ghost painting."

Xilan looked at the calendar, looking thoughtful, and took the time to respond to the other party: "Anyway, the New Year will end in two days, so you should change your calendar."

"I think there is nothing to plan. Time is there. No matter how hard you try, you can't figure out the exact time."

Miss Ceylon turned around, put her pen on the table, and took a slice of orange from Lin Yuxia's hand very naturally: "Academic conferences are a big deal. There must be no mistakes in tomorrow's opening ceremony. You are not a researcher, so of course you can talk without any pain in your waist."

Lin Yuxia lay down on the sofa comfortably: "Isn't it your college dean who is worried about it? I remember that old man is the key point."

"That's different. Professor Herzog is definitely only focused on academic content. I have to think of ways to consider the company. Although Miss Olicia is happy to do charity, her goal is not just to develop academic careers."

They started talking about Olicia again. Lin Yuxia complained silently in her heart. Over the past few days, she had discovered that no matter what happened, Ceylon could always get the result based on Miss Olicia's ideas.

She was about to say something when she saw Ceylon suddenly lower her head to check her phone messages. She waited for a moment, and then Miss Ceylon stood up and said, "Some things need to be dealt with urgently. I'll be back soon."

Lin Yuxia looked at the wooden clock on the wall and reminded: "If you are not in a hurry, go after dinner."

"We can't wait." Ceylon shook his head. "The Rhodes Island expert group is coming. Miss Olicia has previously instructed that we should give them a special reception."

"Tsk, Rhodes Island has experts in all kinds of fields. Come on, I'll go with you."

"No need to bother."

"You're still being polite to me. Don't worry, I deal with Rhodes Island more often, so it's better than just you being alone."

The two went to the reception near the Silver Tower Building to meet with the people from Rhodes Island. The visitors were quite enthusiastic and tried to discuss the energy issues of large equipment with Ceylon as soon as they met.

While Ceylon was arranging the venue for the other party, he contacted Miss Ayyafara. After the latter arrived, there was a problem with the arranged meeting place, so she and Lin Yuxia hurried over to investigate the unexpected situation.

Miss Ceylon was busy until ten o'clock in the evening. She finally found some free time and then she remembered that she had not had dinner yet. Lin Yuxia, who was busy with her, was also hungry.

The two of them had their meal in an ordinary small restaurant on both sides of Longmen Avenue.

Ceylon felt bad for having troubled his friend for so long, so he apologized while eating: "I'm sorry for making you starve with me."

Lin Yuxia shook her head indifferently: "I'm used to being busy, so it doesn't matter. I have a feeling recently that your meeting this time is much more complicated than the last press conference. The last time was also very busy, but overall there were not so many things to do."

Miss Ceylon thought for a moment and said, "Last time it was Miss Olicia who handled it personally. This time it was my turn, and I couldn't handle it with ease. That must be the reason. Sigh, I now understand more and more how hard Miss Olicia works."

"You are amazing too. I have been watching you these past few days."

"Compared to Miss Olicia, it's like heaven and earth."

Hearing these words again, Lin Yuxia couldn't help but smile.

"why are you laughing?"

"I recommended you to Miss Olicia to help her find a researcher, but I didn't expect to find her a number one fan."

Miss Ceylon shook her head in denial and continued to pick up food, while quietly saying, "Not a fan."

Lin Yuxia's eyes flickered, and then she continued to invite Ceylon to eat, but she couldn't help thinking about Ceylon's recent condition.

Since the other party came to Longmen, he has basically been living with her. One of the reasons is their private relationship, but the most important thing is that Ceylon needs to negotiate the details of the meeting with her, and the meeting cannot be carried out without her cooperation.

When friends of many years get together, in addition to discussing work, they will talk about some things they know in common when they relax. Miss Olivia is the topic they talk about the most.

Whenever she thought of this, Lin Yuxia felt deeply moved.

At the beginning, when she helped Ceylon and Miss Olicia to get together, it was just a coincidence and she wanted to help Miss Olicia out, but she didn't expect it to succeed.

Because she knew that Ceylon had high standards and would most likely not go to a little-known small company with a near-zero success rate. To put it bluntly, her approach was somewhat suspected of using the other party to increase contact with Miss Olicia. After all, she had always had other thoughts about the latter.

Besides, she was also pursuing her curiosity. She always felt that Miss Olicia was very special. What if Miss Ceylon really went there for the first time? Would that prove that her vision was good?

She may have thought of many different endings for this matter, but the reality was more dramatic than any of them she had expected:

Ceylon went to Bingshi, but it was more than just a visit.

Xiosta, represented by Ceylon, became a partner of Bingshi, and another partner of Bingshi was Longmen, represented by her.

As Bingshi's conference director, Ceylon came to Longmen to plan the academic conference. Since she was a collaborator of the conference, she has now become Ceylon's direct collaborator.

She and Ceylon were childhood friends. Ceylon knew Olicia because she knew her, and Olicia knew Ceylon because she knew her. She had special feelings for Olicia, and now Ceylon...

Ceylon's every move now vaguely reveals some information, and the other party seems to have completely become Miss Olicia's side.

Lin Yuxia suddenly felt that all the things were twisted together like an unreal strange triangle.

Chapter 2023 Lin, Ceylon 03-04-12 00:03:

The next day, Lin Yuxia stayed at the academic conference throughout the entire process.

Apart from occasionally directing the work of the conference staff, she spent most of her time like an ordinary participating scholar, except that other participants were focusing on academic reports, while she was focusing on Miss Ceylon.

Admittedly, what she thought of yesterday had a profound impact on her, and she didn't know how to deal with this strange triangle relationship.

While thinking, she silently observed Ceylon, her only childhood friend who was not from Yan Country, watching him coming and going on the podium in the conference hall, watching him hurriedly deal with conference affairs in his only free time.

She and Ceylon lived and slept together, so it was easy for her to notice a problem: the other person's complexion was getting worse over the past few days.

This is very natural, she thought. Ceylon has been weak since childhood, and his frail body is not suitable for dealing with such work day and night.

She advised the other party many times, asking him to relax as much as possible and not to spend too much time on it, but every time she advised, Ceylon rejected it with various reasons.

Those reasons always involve that person’s name:

"Ms. Olicia is willing to entrust this matter to me, which shows her trust in me."

"I promised Miss Olicia that I would do it well."

"The academic conference is very important to Bingshi and Miss Olicia. It is the first step in whether we can become the top scientific research institution in Terra, and it is also the first step in realizing Miss Olicia's ideas."

She sat in the audience, staring at Ceylon who was busy on the stage, and couldn't help muttering to herself:

Ceylon, why do you do this?

What do you think of Miss Olicia?

does it worth?

You are the eldest daughter of Xiosta. You have silently given so much, but is it really worth it?

……

In the evening, Lin Yuxia had to deal with some mafia affairs, so she went back first. When she finished her work, she sent a message to Ceylon and then stayed in the living room waiting for him.

I waited until eleven o'clock in the evening.

Miss Ceylon dragged her tired body back to the living room and immediately lay down on the sofa impatiently, like an athlete who had just finished a long-distance run.

Lin Yuxia pointed at the wall clock: "Didn't you say you'd be back soon? Why are you back now?"

Ceylon lazily tucked the pillow under his head, squinted his eyes, and smiled happily: "I'm organizing the conference proceedings."

Lin Yuxia was puzzled: "Why are you laughing? Is it interesting to organize papers?"

Ceylon sat up suddenly, his eyes sparkling: "It is indeed boring to organize papers, but this time it is different."

She was in high spirits, and eagerly explained to her friend: "The quality of the conference papers is very high. The Department of Energy of Leithania University, Columbia Originium Research Institute... these institutions have sent experts here, and several important cutting-edge research in energy science has been gathered at once."

Lin Yuxia was not familiar with Ceylon's stuff, but she had a general impression of the names: "Oh, it sounds pretty impressive."

"Of course, Yuxia, you may not know that there are not many institutions that can gather top researchers in an entire discipline. The only ones that have done so before are Rhine Life Sciences, which focuses on life sciences, and the Leitania University Research Institute, which focuses on natural disaster geology... Although Bingshi took a shortcut this time, in terms of energy science, it can barely be considered to be behind those top institutions."

"If that's the case, it's really amazing." Lin Yuxia nodded thoughtfully. She thought of another thing in her mind. Uncle Wei would probably be very happy. The other party supported this conference because he valued the fact that it could bring together academic experts.

Miss Ceylon hugged the pillow in her arms and continued, "I still feel like I'm dreaming. I really can't believe why Miss Olicia is so amazing. Did she think of it a long time ago? Energy science, there just doesn't exist a top institution in the field of energy science. Miss Olicia used an academic conference to directly integrate the energy departments of major scientific research organizations."

"Also, and also, she told me before that I must compile a collection of academic papers. Then, when I was organizing it today, I realized the intention. The academic paper collection will be open to the entire Terra, to all universities, and all scientific research institutions. Any energy researcher or other cross-disciplinary researcher will not be able to ignore such a core collection of energy papers, and the cover of this collection will have Bingshi's name on it."

Miss Ceylon suddenly hugged her friend who was listening tightly: "Yuxia, thank you, thank you for helping us so much. Without you, this meeting would never have been successful."

Lin Yuxia coughed and patted Miss Ceylon on the back gently: "It's mainly due to your Miss Olicia."

Ceylon let go of his hand, happily put the pillow behind his back, and reached out to take the purple grapes from the fruit bowl: "Miss Olicia's contribution is beyond words. Sometimes I feel that she is not a person from this world."

"I think so too." Lin Yuxia said in a low voice.

Ceylon didn't hear his friend's whispers, and continued to talk to himself: "She is so amazing. Many of the things she does seem meaningless, but as long as you stand quietly behind her, you will suddenly find out one day that each of her meaningless steps is actually a genius move."

"You know, Dean Herzog, the top professor of Originium in the National University and even in Terra, agreed to be the host, partly because of us, and partly because he accepted Miss Olicia's gift. He certainly knows that many of the things he does are free work for Icestone Technology, but after today's academic lecture, he took the initiative to discuss the next session with Icestone."

"It's all Miss Olicia..." Ceylon suddenly covered his cheeks, his face slightly red, "If only Miss Olicia was here."

Seeing this, Lin Yuxia lowered her head silently, her eyes flickering fiercely. She suddenly took a deep breath and looked at her friend again. She decided to ask that question.

"Ceylon, what do you think of Miss Olicia?"

Ceylon was unable to react for a moment: "How can I see... um, she is very good, she taught me a lot of things..."

Lin Yuxia stared at her friend: "That's not what I'm asking. I want to know, what do you think of your relationship with Miss Olicia? Do you regard her as your superior? A friend? Or something else?"

"of course……"

Miss Ceylon didn't finish her words and she suddenly fell silent.

PS: Let me give you a heads up. At the end of March, I will be on a business trip and will need to attend a lot of boring meetings in other places. I don’t expect to be able to update during this period. I apologize to everyone in advance_(:з」∠)_.

Chapter 2023 Theater 03-05-12 00:03:

Ceylon knew that he had asked similar questions in the past and came up with the answer after much thought.

But now that Yuxia asked her, why couldn't she answer immediately, but instead hesitated?

This hesitation frightened her, and she read something deeper from it. She seemed unwilling to admit one thing, that is, she only regarded Miss Olicia as a teacher.
