(Many people have never heard of vaporwave music, so I recommend one - "Tokyo Disorderly Love" NetEase Cloud)

Cheng Xiao listened to Mo's analysis and felt really amazing. His eyes were wide open, like a curious baby, and his lips were slightly opened: "What kind of music do I like?"

Cheng Mo glanced at Cheng Xiao's gem-like eyes that shone with curiosity, and answered blankly, "Miss, I'm not a fortune-teller, the deduction method is a scientific method of logical reasoning, and its generation requires sufficient conditions. , its inductive judgment also requires sufficient conditions, just like a math, physics and chemistry problem, if you want to solve it without sufficient conditions, it is completely nonsense. The reason why it can be judged that this classmate likes vapor waves is because the conditions she provided are sufficient ."

Cheng Xiao didn't understand Cheng Mo's shirk at all, and continued to ask with great interest, "Then let me give you two tips, okay?"

Cheng Mo thought: "Fortune-telling also requires a fee. My time is very precious. I don't have the time to mess around with you here."So he said directly and casually: "You like ancient music"

Because Cheng Xiao sang an ancient song just now, Cheng Mo here is completely perfunctory, without thorough analysis, just to get rid of the topic quickly, I did not expect Cheng Xiao to answer with an incredible applause: " You're amazing, and you're right! You're as magical as a fortune teller."

Cheng Mo twitched the corners of his mouth twice, very speechless, took the phone from Yan Yitong's hand, and said, "You guys talk!" He turned around and left without giving them a chance to stay.

Yan Yitong saw that Cheng Mo ran away, and said with a smile: "I'll find Cheng Banxian to count his fate, and I don't believe that he doesn't understand." After speaking, he turned around and followed in the direction where Cheng Mo left.

Xie Minyun didn't speak, just turned around and started to pick up the fork to deal with the salmon sashimi on the plate. The silver fork shone with colorful luster in the sun, like a decoration on her fair wrist, she moved quietly and calmly. Elegant, like a giraffe in a mottled jungle.

Du Leng said in his heart: Even if Xie Minyun's background is not so deep, pursuing her is not a loss.He looked at the salmon on Xie Minyun's dinner plate, and asked the waiter to bring a bottle of Chardonnay from Sancerre in the Loire Valley.

Then he said to Xie Minyun: "This white wine with oak flavor is the most suitable wine to match with creamy salmon. Its fuller wine body and oak flavor will echo the weight and taste of salmon. It must be It will give you a different experience.”

Xie Minyun didn't seem to hear it, and Du Leng didn't mind, let alone discouraged. He turned his head to Cheng Xiao and said, "Xiao Xiao, would you like something to eat?"

Although Cheng Xiao is stupid and sweet, he also knows that he can't be a light bulb at this time, so he smiled and said, "I'm going to bake something to eat by myself. I haven't had a BBQ for a long time, and the company doesn't allow us to eat meat. To be honest, I I've been craving meat for a long time."

Du Leng said: "Okay, then I'll come to find you later."

Cheng Xiao hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Don't worry about me, it's easier for me to be alone."

Du Leng smiled and didn't speak, Cheng Xiao turned around and walked towards the oven, Du Leng watched Cheng Xiao's slender waist swaying like a willow in the breeze, and a pair of plump and fair legs in a slit cheongsam skirt It was looming in the swing, and I thought: This is also a natural stunner, but it is not suitable to do it at this time. After I go to college, I must not let go of such a girl.

Du Leng turned his eyes back, asked the waiter at the long table to ask for a plate and fork, stood beside Xie Minyun, asked for a few pieces of salmon, and said, "I always knew that you sing very well, but seriously. Yes, you shocked me today." Du sneered for a while, "Of course, it would be more perfect if it wasn't "Beauty and the Beast"."

Xie Minyun said: "Thank you for your compliment, I just like this song, so I just sing this song"

Du Leng naturally knew what Xie Minyun meant, don't think too much, I sing this song has nothing to do with you.Naturally, he would not give up because of Xie Minyun's persuasive remarks. In his plan, Xie Minyun and her family background were indispensable to him, and Xie Minyun also met all his expectations, and even far exceeded it. After all, even if Xie Minyun is not beautiful and her grades are not good, so Du Leng will also pursue her.

So Du Leng pretended not to mind Xie Minyun's indifference at all, and said gracefully: "I like this song very much, but thinking that this fairy tale is a dark adult story, I still feel a little hard to let go (Note 1) ."

Xie Minyun said meaningfully: "Isn't human beings so good at disguising?"

Du Leng said softly: "In order to survive, you always have to learn to disguise, but I think there is always someone in this world who can make you defenseless, let you completely remove your defenses, and remove your disguise."

His voice is very magnetic, like the whispers of the narrator in a documentary. He is handsome and tall, like the hero in an idol drama, and Du Leng, who has opened the winner in life mode, is still very moving.

But for Xie Minyun, who was also born a winner in life, she has seen too many people like Du Leng, and she has long been immune to such people. Although Du Leng is good enough, it is really far less attractive than Cheng Mo's. .

To her, Cheng Mo was like a difficult problem that she couldn't understand.

Xie Minyun didn't follow Du Leng's words and continued. He quickly finished the salmon on the dinner plate, handed the plate and fork to the waiter, wiped his mouth with a wet towel, and turned his head slightly to Du Leng who was standing beside him. : "Excuse me, I'll go to the bathroom."

At this time, the waiter just came over with wine and a glass, and asked, "Master, do you want to wake up or drink directly?"

The gentleness on Du Leng's face slowly degenerated into stiffness, and his focus was on the figure behind the young waiter, Xie Minyun, who was gradually moving away.

The waiter didn't know what he did wrong, so he hurriedly said, "Then I'll pour you a drink now." Then he asked cautiously, "How many drinks do you need?" He didn't know if Xie Minyun would come back.

Du Leng resisted the urge to hit someone, waved his hand and said, "Forget it, take it back."

The waiter bowed and said, "Yes" and quickly left Du Leng, who seemed to be in a bad mood.

---------------------------

Note 1 - The evolution history of "Beauty and the Beast" is very long, the earliest in the 18th century, starting in 1740, Madame Gabriel-Suzanne Villeneuve based on her favorite Roman poet Ovid "The Metamorphoses" ", created a 200-page novel "Beauty and the Beast".

She was a great inspiration to another writer, Madame Jeanne-Marie Riplings Beaumont, a French writer in the 1750s.Villeneuve's audience was mostly adults, while Beaumont was children, so she adapted the story drastically.

One of the most critical is that the beast asks every night: "Will you sleep with me?" Changed to "Will you marry me?"

The former is primitive sexual desire, the latter is naive fantasy, no matter which of these two forms, there are people who are obsessed with it and pass it on by faith.

1771

French writer Marmontel and French composer Gretrie collaborated on the opera version of "Beauty and the Beast", "Zemire et Azor".Later, there were many movies based on "Beauty and the Beast", but most of them were dark horror versions.Until it was adapted into a cartoon by Disney in 1991, this Disney version of "Beauty and the Beast" was nominated for the Oscar for Best Animated Feature, and it was also the first cartoon to be nominated for the Oscar for Best Picture.Since then, "Beauty and the Beast" has become a fairy tale.

In fact, there is another saying that the prototype of "Beauty and the Beast" came from a Spanish boy named Petrus Gonsalvus. In 1537, Petrus was born with hair all over.

The scientific name of this disease is Ambras syndrome, also known as congenital hirsutism.This is an extremely rare genetic disease, often with familial factors, caused by autosomal aberrations, and has a tendency to be inherited across generations.

Only 50 cases of the disease have been recorded since the Middle Ages, and Petrus was the first "half-wolf" to be described as suffering from hirsutism.

At that time, European royalty used to have a special species as a status symbol.So Petrus' father decided to present his 10-year-old son as a gift to King Henry II of France.

The nobles of the French royal family were completely shocked when they saw Petrus, they had never seen such a half-human, half-beast.On the one hand, curiosity is at work, and on the other hand, he is very worried that Petrus will be animalistic.

So they decided to keep Petrus in captivity in the Royal Zoo.

They hoped that the "orc" who was still a child would show his fangs and explode his bestiality as soon as possible, so that they could use Petrus as a pastime like watching a beast fighting show.However, after finding out that the child was just a hairy person, they felt that there was no fun, so they taught the child knowledge and etiquette, and made him a monster who understands civilization.

In order to allow this hairy "monster" to have offspring and give it as a gift, the Queen Mother insisted on finding a wife for Petrus, and later found such a woman who broke the prejudice of the world, but the end was miserable, and she gave birth to four children. Had Ambras syndrome and was given to other nobles in Europe.
