Chapter 760: Schoolmates (2)

When Mu Tingfeng heard this, he had a vague guess in his heart. The junior that Sirius mentioned sounded like a person who was eager for quick success and instant benefits, such people were 80-90% likely to trip over their own unsteady sprint. As expected

Some things will often lead to unpredictable consequences if they are dismissed. At that time, we were working on the last set of data. Our mentor thought that he was a meticulous person, so he asked him to help. Unexpectedly, just because of this one mistake, there was an irreversible accident. In the final summary, that guy got a decimal point wrong. You should know that the slightest error in data can throw entire s.h.i.+ps off course. Especially when it came to experimental data. We cant afford to be careless.

Just because of that decimal point, your experiment failed?

Sirius nodded. After the accident, the first person that guy looked for was me. He begged me not to tell others about this. Otherwise, he might be severely punished by the school, and his future might be ruined.

And you agreed? Mu Tingfengs eyes showed some disapproval. In his opinion, everyone should own up for their mistakes, Sirius action was no different from covering up for the crime that person had committed.

Sirius lowered his head bitterly and said in a hoa.r.s.e voice, Yes, I agreed. I couldnt bear to watch his life fall apart. To think that such a decision would turn around to bite me.

Zhao Youlin looked at the side of Sirius face and asked in a deep voice, What did he do?

Ha he went to report to the instructor before the incident was exposed. That I made a mistake in the data and caused the failure of the experiment. In order to get away with it, I even planned to push the blame onto him. By the time I reacted, he had already hidden behind the instructor and had turned into the victim in everyones eyes. I became the villain who had caused a major accident due to my own reasons and even planned to use my ident.i.ty as a senior to force a junior to take the fall for me.

Zhao Youlin and Mu Tingfeng both had ugly expressions when they heard his words. It was one thing to ask a person to cover up for them, it was another to turn them into the scapegoat. They would never be able to recover from this.

Have you been abroad ever since you were expelled from school? Have you ever thought of returning to your country?

Sirius expression darkened slightly when he heard Zhao Youlins question. He shook his head. He said self-deprecatingly, Ive been wandering abroad for about two years. Ive been looking for a job everywhere, but the facts have proven that Im still too nave. Foreign countries are far less tolerant of people who have lost their integrity than domestic ones, not to mention people like me who have tried to sabotage others, trying to escape responsibility. After running into a wall with dozens of companies one after another, to be honest, I grew very frustrated, but Ive never thought of returning home.

Why? Zhao Youlin could not understand. He already knew that it was difficult to continue living abroad, so why was he still so obsessed with living abroad? Was it really better to live abroad than at home?

Theres no particular reason. When I came here with ambition, I was so dejected about the fact that I was going to have to tuck my tail between my legs and return home without doing anything. I refused to accept that.

Zhao Youlin was silent for a moment. She suddenly understood how persistent Sirius was. Sometimes, a mans self-esteem was more resolute than any determination.

What happened after that? Why did you end up as a secretary? Being a secretary should be a waste of a talent like you, right? Mu Tingfeng casually pulled the topic back to the question he had asked at the banquet.

Sirius was stunned. After realizing that Mu Tingfeng was still struggling at that point, he didnt know whether to laugh or cry.

It was the only option left. At that time, I couldnt find even a part-time role for two years in a row. I had almost spent all my savings and was about to end up on the streets. Fortunately, a friend I knew at that time knew about my situation and introduced Kirstens company to me. He said that the president of this company was lacking a secretary, so he asked me to go over and give it a try. I had never thought that I would one day run off to be someone elses secretary. But at that time, I was at my wits end. I just wanted to at least support myself first so that I could have a place to stay. After that, you should all know that maybe the requirements of a secretary were not as strict as the positions I had previously interviewed for. Or maybe the person who interviewed me was lenient, and I was accepted.

Sirius recalled the excitement when he received the interview through the phone and couldnt help but smile. He raised his head and looked into Mu Tingfengs eyes. I know that Mr. Mu is worried that I had deliberately approached Kirsten with bad intentions in order to achieve my goal. Regarding this, I can only say that at the beginning, I had much bigger worries to think of. I only wanted to find a job to survive

In the beginning? Mu Tingfeng quickly grasped the main point of Sirius words.

Sirius paused. He continued, Yes, at the beginning. After that, helping Kirsten manage the company might really have been a coincidence at the beginning, but in the end, I couldnt tell you whether it was by design or if it was pure coincidence.

Mu Tingfengs eyes darkened, but he remained silent.

On the contrary, Zhao Youlin pondered for a moment and suddenly changed the topic to Lin Yan, who had just left. So Lin Yan, at that time

Lin Yan was in the same major as me, in the same cla.s.s. To tell you the truth, it takes a lot to be able to enter the laboratory. When we were selecting the candidates, he also wanted to enter, but unfortunately, he failed to get in, while I did. After that, he kept targeting me. When I was expelled from the school, he deliberately came over to mock me. After that, I left San Lilo and never saw him again. I didnt expect to meet him at Kirstens wedding today, and also

Upon hearing the words San Lilo once again, Zhao Youlins brows furrowed slightly. She felt that the name was becoming more and more familiar. She had definitely, definitely heard of this name somewhere before.

Mu Tingfeng and Siris did not notice anything strange about Zhao Youlin. Just as they were thinking of how to end this awkward topic suddenly, they heard Zhao Youlin exclaim, I remember now. I remember where Ive heard this name before. Its my mother. My mother mentioned it before.

The two men who were silent were startled. They turned to look at Zhao Youlin at the same time and asked, What?
