Embers Ad Infinitum

After laughing for a while, Shang Jianyao raised his hand to wipe his mouth, and said with yearning:

"It's almost winter, there should be mutton soup in the cafeteria."

"Yes, yes." Long Yuehong's eyes lit up.

Just hearing the name, a strong fragrance filled his mouth.

Bai Chen then said:

"You can also add stir-fried lamb."

These are dishes that were not in the cans they ate before, and they must be freshly prepared to be delicious.

Hearing what they said, Jiang Baimian couldn't help but picked up the cup and took a sip.

She cleared her throat and said:

"It's still a while before the test results come out. I'm going to use it to write a report. You can do whatever you like, but you can't leave the office unless you go to the toilet."

"The computers have all been checked in and can only work." Shang Jianyao didn't hide his grievance.

He picked up the materials that had been photocopied and belonged to the "Old Tune Group", and flipped through them casually.

These data are mainly based on the situation of the current ice sheet before the destruction of the old world.

Long Yuehong wanted to say that I would chat with Xiaobai, but under the watchful eyes of "all eyes", it is really not suitable for you and me, especially Long Yuehong herself is still a conservative and introverted person.

He also sat back in his seat, flipping through the materials he hadn't finished reading before leaving.

Bai Chen chooses to follow the trend.

As time passed, Long Yuehong gradually felt tired, and her eyelids began to fight.

He had a similar experience before. When he returned to the company from Hongshiji, the whole team fell asleep and missed the opening hours of the cafeteria.

This is also something that can’t be helped. Being in the dust, no matter what, the last string will be tightened, and it is impossible to completely relax. After a long period of time, it is definitely not a joke to be physically and mentally exhausted.

Only after returning to this underground building, he no longer needs to worry about sneak attacks, accidents, or infection, can he feel safe enough, and he can relax his body and mind a little bit.

To be honest, at the earliest moment, he couldn't even sleep soundly on the dusty soil. Even though Jiang Baimian and Shang Jianyao were on duty, he was still worried and woke up frequently.

After a long period of time, maybe he was really too tired, or maybe he figured it out and felt that he should trust his companions. After all, these are teammates who can trust each other, so he really slept more peacefully.

At some point, Long Yuehong and Bai Chen fell asleep on the table.

Shang Jian Yao forced himself to hold on to his sleepiness, walked crookedly to the couch in a skating-like posture, and fell down with a snap.

Jiang Baimian took his eyes off the computer screen, glanced around, and smiled a little.

As time passed, she suddenly raised her left palm, bent her fingers, and tapped on the table.

"It's time to eat! It's time to eat!" Shang Jian Yao stood up abruptly, closed his eyes, and shouted loudly.

Long Yuehong and Bai Chen straightened up one after another, shook their arms, and cast their eyes on Jiang Baimian.

Jiang Baimian glanced at Shang Jianyao:

"I'm telling you, the test report came out, and there's nothing wrong with it."

Having said that, she paused, smiled and said:

"Since there is no problem and the time is almost up, then we can go to the cafeteria."

"Long live!" Shang Jianyao finally opened his eyes, "I need to add lamb intestines to my mutton soup!"

This is a very extravagant behavior, but it doesn't matter, they contribute enough points now.

After going to the small cafeteria on the 647th floor, the four members of the "Old Tune Group" headed in groups of two and two and headed in different directions.

…………

Floor 495, Block C, No. 11.

Long Yuehong, who had received deep condolences from her parents and sister, looked around, straightened her back and said:

"Mom, Dad, I have something to tell you."

Gu Hong was immediately alert:

"whats the matter?"

Could it be that he has to go out again in a few days?

It took half a year to come back!

Long Yuehong replied shyly and proudly:

"I have a date."

"Ah?" Gu Hong, Long Dayong, and Long Aihong all made surprised voices at the same time.

Gu Hong was puzzled and said:

"You just came back, I haven't arranged a blind date yet..."

As for this year's unified distribution, Long Yuehong again honorably missed it.

Long Yuehong suppressed the sudden twitching in her heart and said:

"It's my teammate."

"Isn't your teammate Brother Yao?" Long Aihong blurted out.

Long Yuehong's expression was almost dull, and she quickly replied:

"I'm not the only teammate!"

Sister, use your brain more when you encounter things!

No, she has to strictly control the time she spends watching old world entertainment materials. It can't affect her study. When the Chinese New Year turns, she has to go to university!

Gu Hong was excited:

"Which floor is it? What is the rank? What is it called? Whose family? Maybe I know her parents or relatives."

Long Dayong also looked relieved at the side.

My eldest son actually knew how to actively pursue girls, and he succeeded!

Long Yuehong organized the following language:

"She is a foreign employee, and now lives on the 622nd floor."

"Outsiders..." Gu Hong's expression froze, and then he smiled, "It's normal for you to have a relationship every day when you stay together on the dust. When will you bring the girl back for us to see?"

"I'm planning to go to Sunday this week." Long Yuehong had already considered this issue, "When the rewards of our group are distributed this time, I will go to the Order Supervision Bureau to register with her. At that time, I will be able to allocate better s room."

He's not asking for his parents' permission, but he's informing his decision and hoping for a blessing.

After experiencing so many things, although his nature is hard to change, his self-confidence and courage have undergone qualitative changes, and he is no longer a child who obediently obeys his parents' opinions.

Long Dayong glanced at Gu Hong, deliberately expressed his curiosity, and asked:

"The people in your group seem to be promoted quite quickly. What level is your partner at now?"

"D6, it should be promoted again this time." Long Yuehong didn't hide anything.

"D6!" Long Aihong exclaimed, "What about you, brother? Will you still be promoted?"

She remembered that her eldest brother was already D7 before.

Long Yuehong scratched her hair with her right hand embarrassingly:

"possible."

"Wow! Will you become our family's first management team in the future?" Long Aihong was excitedly dreaming while helping her brother liven up the atmosphere.

"It's not that easy for management!" Gu Hong glared at her daughter, and then said to Long Yuehong, "Sunday, right? I have to prepare the order in advance."

After discussing this matter for a while, Long Yuehong walked out of the house, intending to go to the 622nd floor to tell Bai Chen the news.

Watching his back disappear at the corner, Gu Hong sighed and said:

"Why is it a foreign employee... This gene is not very good."

Without waiting for Long Dayong and Long Aihong to comfort and persuade her, she continued on her own:

"That's okay, anyway, children can do the latest generation of genetic improvement.

"When they get married, according to the company's regulations, they have to consider pregnancy. Once they are pregnant, they don't have to go to the surface to perform missions. After a year or two, their team should have no place for them. , can only be transferred."

My mother is far-sighted... Long Aihong, who has been deeply influenced by old world entertainment materials, gave her a thumbs up in her heart.

She reminded in a low voice:

"Actually, you don't need to be pregnant. You don't need to go to the surface to perform missions until your child is one year old."

"That's right! I forgot about it!" Gu Hong patted her forehead lightly, "Then I have to keep an eye on them and ask them to register as soon as possible!"

Long Dayong touched his head:

"Yeah."

…………

Floor 622, Block B, No. 59.

After returning to the room, Bai Chen didn't put the laptop away and turn it on to watch the program as before, but sat on the chair, staring blankly, and his eyes gradually lost focus.

That's mostly because her computer was turned in for review.

After a while, Bai Chen opened the drawer, took out the paper and pen, and drew various lines quickly and slowly.

Gradually, several villains appeared on the paper, two big ones, one small one and a robot.

Although Bai Chen has no drawing skills, he still outlines the characteristics of different characters. The male adult looks at the child lovingly, the female adult looks gentle, the robot is dull, and the child wears a hairpin and smiles brightly.

Looking at the painting, a smile slowly appeared on Bai Chen's face.

…………

Floor 647, Room 14.

"It's done!" Jiang Baimian saved the document and stretched.

She then looked at Shang Jianyao who was sitting on the sofa:

"Why are you still in the office?"

Shang Jianyao replied confidently:

"I'm afraid you will get lost!"

"Hey." Jiang Baimian replied angrily, "Although I paid a little more, it's not so bad that I can't go home."

After the incident at Taicheng No. 1 Senior High School, after several attempts, she finally broke through the fear island of fear of death, and her abilities in all aspects improved by 50%, and the corresponding price was also a little more serious.

Shang Jian Yao smiled and said:

"Really? I don't believe it."

Jiang Baimian let out a "huh":

"Then watch!"

She packed her things and walked to the door.

In order not to lose face in front of Shang Jianyao, she thought about it for a few seconds before choosing which direction to turn.

Just like this, stopping and deliberating, she walked steadily to the corresponding elevator, and Shang Jianyao followed her with his hands in his pockets, not too fast or too slow.

After entering the elevator, Jiang Baimian pressed the number "349" after repeated confirmation.

"How are you, are you not lost?" She proudly said to Shang Jianyao while pressing the button to open the door.

Shang Jianyao showed a sunny smile:

"yes."

He then waved his hand:

"goodbye!"

Uh... Jiang Baimian let go of the button and let the elevator door close in front of his eyes.

When the numbers started to jump, Shang Jianyao turned to another elevator room and returned to Room 196, Block B, Floor 495.

After simply tidying up, he lay down on the bed, raised his right hand and pinched his temples on both sides.

…………

In the "spiritual corridor", ten Shang Jianyao squatted, leaned or stood in front of room "102", staring at each other.

The reckless one and the novelty one wanted to rush over to open the door from time to time, but were caught by colleagues in time and forcibly suppressed.
