Zhou Jinru took a deep breath, tried to calm down, forced out a smile, opened the door, and saw Yin Hui standing at the door holding the chessboard.
"Ally, you don't look good."
"good."
As one of the most popular male characters in the game, Yin Hui was even called the husband by female players. Later, he became his ex-husband for some reason, but this did not affect his popularity.
When the game became reality, Zhou Jinru was also overwhelmed by Yin Hui, especially his height of 192 centimeters, which looked quite oppressive.
Yin Hui stepped aside to let Zhou Jinru pass, and when he entered the door, he smiled lightly and said, "Ally, you should smile when you see me."
Can I laugh?
Do you know how many bombs are in my bathroom?
I'm worried now that I won't be able to see the sun tomorrow!
Zhou Jinru wiped his face, accidentally touched the gauze, and grimaced in pain, but the slight pain allowed him to regain some consciousness.
"Yin Hui, it's so late, you came to me just to play chess?"
"What, can't it?"
When Yin Hui walked into the room, he took a casual glance and understood: "The summer is hot. If allies want to find a good place for leisure and vacation, in addition to Xinxi Tower, there is also Kjerag Snow Realm."
Zhou Jinru sighed: "Thank you for the invitation, but I can't go. There are a lot of things going on in Rhodes Island right now, and Amiya alone is not enough manpower. I have been away for so long, and I can't leave the mess behind anymore."
When all enterprises expand rapidly, chaos and efficiency decline will occur. What needs to be done now is to absorb production capacity as quickly as possible, restore order, and improve efficiency. Of course, this is the theory, but the actual situation is always more complicated than the theory.
Yin Hui had already anticipated Zhou Jinru's words, stretched out his hand to pull a chair, sat down, leaned back, and said lightly: "That's really a pity."
But there was nothing regretful about his tone.
The chessboard was placed by the table, but he didn't open it, and Zhou Jinru didn't look at it either. He quickly packed away the supper in front of him. After pouring a glass of water for Yin Hui, the two sat facing each other.
Yin Hui held the water cup in his hand, stared at the rippling water in the cup, and said with emotion: "It has been one year since the allies came back, and Rhode Island has finally recovered some of its vitality. It is gratifying."
What he said about restoring strength is actually correct, but there is still a big gap between the scene at that time. Zhou Jinru nodded: "There is a long way to go. I am still waiting for Amiya to grow up. It seems that there will be some time."
"And after that?"
"I don't know. I have received many invitations, but I have no plans at the moment. We will talk about it in the future in such a distant future."
Yin Hui opened his chessboard and placed the chess pieces one by one. He moved very slowly and said slowly: "It's been too long. No one knows what will happen in the future. Even people like allies can't predict the future, right?"
Zhou Jinru stared at the black chess piece, with a faint smile on his lips: "Having Aiyafala is equivalent to seizing the future."
"Miss Ayyafala?"
Yin Hui was a little surprised. Although the researcher had shown extraordinary talents in certain fields, the worsening Originium disease was threatening her life, and Rhode Island might not have a solution. The so-called future also refers to what?
"Does the ally want to write an academic paper that even Victorians would care about?"
Apart from this, there should be no other reasons. After all, the death of the geologist couple was not accidental, but deliberate. It seems that Rhode Island should have found some clues.
Zhou Jinru shook his head and did not go on. With Aiyafala, he did have a future, that was absolutely correct.
However, there were still a few people hiding in the room. Zhou Jinru did not dare to play chess with Yin Hui, as he was not sure what trouble would happen, so he quickly said: "Yin Hui, you can put your chessboard here first, and then wait until I have the energy to play. I will play today." I just came back and it’s been a long and dusty journey. In addition to the medical accident, it will take a few days to recover..."
"It doesn't matter."
Yin Hui didn't care. He would stay in Rhode Island during this period anyway. Was he afraid that the man in front of him would spread his wings and fly?
Ding dong.
At this time, someone seemed to be ringing the doorbell. Zhou Jinru's nose felt sore and he almost cried. He thought to himself what was going on tonight. Everyone was unhappy with him and planned to kill him on the spot?
He said feebly: "Which one?"
"Doctor, it's so late at night, and Amiya has already taken a rest. Why is your waiting room still open?"
This is Kelsey's voice!
Zhou Jinru was excited and looked at Yin Hui. The latter looked indifferent and said calmly: "Please feel free to be allies, I don't care about this."
The chairman of Kalan Trading was as steady as a rock. He picked up the water glass and took a sip with a calm expression, as if the person at the door was not Kelsey but passers-by A, B and C.
Zhou Jinru breathed a sigh of relief. If Yin Hui went to open the bathroom door without saying a word, he would really not have to live.
Opening the door, Kelsey clasped her hands in front of her and said calmly: "Why don't you rest?"
"I……"
Zhou Jinru only had time to say a word before Kelsi had already passed him and walked into the room. At a glance, he saw an indifferent face of silver gray.
"Dr. Kelsey, my allies and I are having an entertainment event. Now and it's coming to an end, do you want to join in?"
Facing Yin Hui's question, Kelsey quickly glanced aside and saw the water glass on the coffee table, the sword leaning on the bed, the midnight snack on the edge of the table, and Yin Hui's chessboard laid out.
"You can carry out your activities in your free time. It's almost one in the morning. Going to bed early is good for your health..."
Kelsey glanced at Zhou Jinru's face from the corner of her eye, and continued: "Now I want to discuss some professional topics with the doctor."
"Okay, if that's the case, I won't bother you."
Yin Hui stood up and left without any hesitation or asking anything, as if he was waiting for Kelsey's eviction order.
Watching Yin Hui leave, Zhou Jinru felt relieved. He finally saw someone off and said with a smile: "Doctor Kelsey, look..."
Kelsey frowned imperceptibly, and said in a loud voice: "Follow me, something went wrong in the experiment, and I need your help. I may be busy until after three o'clock."
As if he had been granted amnesty, Zhou Jinru quickly kept the door ajar, walked a few steps faster, and caught up with Kelxi.
However, the path they took was not to the internal laboratory area of Rhode Island, but to the deck.
"Kelsey, thank you. Without you, I don't know how today would have ended."
Kelsey stopped and raised her head, her eyes sharp and her tone unkind: "I have told you a long time ago that you should be careful about your relationship with female operators. Have you listened?"
"I listened."
"Did you listen?"
"I really listen, but there is always a little surprise and the horse stumbles."
