C540 King's Feast 3

However, she was no longer able to speak. The moment she opened her mouth, melted snow would fall from her eyelashes.

Qiao Zhi was actually also panicking. After releasing his embrace, there was no place to place it anymore. He rubbed his hands together, completely speechless.

Only after a long time did he call out "Likun", and then there was nothing else.

He was also at a loss.

Yes, the award ceremony was coming up soon, and he didn't know why he had come back — it was as if if if he hadn't come back for this trip, he would always have sleepless nights and nightmares.

Yesterday, he had just been scolded by his mother, but he had already returned today. He told himself a thousand times in his heart: "I just have something to talk to her about. Other than that, it's really nothing."

Because he hadn't seen it before he left, he had to give an explanation this time.

At that time, he had longed to see her, to see her, to be the most important thing in his life — not even to wait for the award ceremony, which, he knew, would never be a meeting between him and her — but a showdown for all of them.

Poor Likun.

Just like that, a couple stood under the snowy sky, forming a very strange scene.

Finally, Mu Qiaozhi reached out his hand and pulled her back, "Li Kun, let's talk inside."

She was like a marionette who had lost all her willpower as she followed him inside step by step.

The air-conditioning in the hospital was on, blocking the wind and snow outside.

Qiao Zhi first patted off the snowflakes on her body, then took off his own overcoat. Very familiarly, he poured two large cups of hot coffee, passed one to her, and drank the other by himself. Then, he said gently: "Li Kun, I came back to find you for some matters."

She clutched her coffee cup to her chest, her heart pounding.

"You should go to the research institute in Copenhagen. It's more suitable for you. You shouldn't give up and go to America. "

She looked down at her coffee cup, unable to respond.

Copenhagen was naturally the first choice, but, but … In such a small world, it was already impossible for her to go there.

This was the main reason why she had been stuck here for so long.

"Li Kun, if you give up the Copenhagen, you might regret it in the future. I have investigated in detail the positions you have applied for in the United States. Whether it is in the direction of your professional career, your qualifications, your treatment, your future development, or the general environment of your work, they are all far inferior to that of the Copenhagen's. Likun, you don't have to make the wrong choice because of me. "

She still did not make a sound.

He stopped, perhaps because of her silence, the silence that people who had known each other so well for so many years could not bear, the silence that she had never felt when they were together.

But for now, she was silent.

A moment later, he pulled a long box out of his bag. It was wrapped in a simple package, shaped like a large, flat pen case.

She reached out her hand, but then something came to her and she pulled it back.

He took her hand and placed the box in it, unable to hide the delight on his face. "Don't you want to open it, Likun?"

She opened the box and was stunned for a moment.

Inside was a large face check. He was surprised to see the number on it and looked at it with a puzzled expression.

The bonus figures at the awards ceremony were different, much smaller. According to the rules, the Royal Society only had 1.5 million dollars, so if they shared it, that would only be 750 thousand dollars.
