disaster strikes

Chapter 11: The Gratitude Report
"what?"

A light hey interrupted Chen Mo's train of thought.

Since Chen Mo tidied up the library, the number of people who came to borrow books has obviously increased, but most of the students just searched for some information for a short time, and then left quietly, and did not stay here for too long.

Chen Mo, who was reading "Application Skills of E-Level Skills", raised his head when he was disturbed.

However, when he saw the person who came, he couldn't help being stunned, and then he showed surprise, and hurriedly stood up from his seat.

"tutor."

The visitor was none other than Qinghong.

"I heard from Lou Lan that she hired an administrator to take care of the situation here. She hasn't been here for a while, but the changes here are not small. Could it be that you are what she said?"

She looked Chen Mo up and down.

Chen Mo was a little embarrassed.

It has been more than a month since he came to the college. He has already understood the habits of the disaster world and gradually adapted to life in this world. He knows that many natural disasters in the disaster world look down on this long-term employment relationship.

After Chen Mo nodded, he respectfully said: "What books do you need, I will help you."

"Hehe, no need, I'll just take a look."

Instructor Qinghong waved her hand, and went into the depths of the library to browse.

At least from her expression, it seems that she did not discriminate against Chen Mo's job as a librarian.

But at this moment, Chen Mo's heart is like an ant on a hot pot.

It wasn't that he was afraid of the mentor.

Although Qing Hong's instructor is sometimes very strict, most of the time he just discusses the facts.

It is probably because she has taught too many starving ghost students, and she has seen all kinds of life. The temporary employment relationship of the academy, in the eyes of this instructor, is still acceptable. After all, it is just a group of starving ghosts It's just for living.

Apart from his deep aversion to moths, the mentor has not shown any obvious likes and dislikes for the time being.

What really made Chen Mo feel like he was sitting on pins and needles at this moment was that he realized that this might be his chance, a chance to really get close to his mentor and change his destiny.

He doesn't have the bribery resources of those adult starving ghosts.

Although after more than a month of accumulation, Chen Mo has already accumulated 28 natural disaster contribution points in his hands, and he couldn't help but spend a few points in the middle, but these contribution points are still not worth mentioning in the eyes of the instructor.

It is not enough to want to bribe.

As for trying to get close, if you are too hasty, it is easy to be self-defeating.

I don't know how many starved ghost students she brought out in her hands, and they change batches every [-] days.

But for Chen Mo personally, now may be his only chance to change his fate during his time in the academy.

This time it was the instructor who came over to say hello on his own initiative, not trying to get close by himself.

This created an opportunity for Chen Mo objectively.

The difference is similar to the first meeting between a man and a woman. Under the same conditions, a man uses various means to inquire about a woman and then tries to get close to them. The two parties get to know each other by chance, and the latter will undoubtedly greatly dispel the vigilance of the woman.

If he could seize this opportunity and close the relationship between the two, his situation in the academy might be completely different in the future.

And this completely different result is likely to be the difference between life and death in the end.

It is precisely because this opportunity is so precious that Chen Mo is restless and dare not speak rashly.

He had to find an appropriate excuse, an excuse that the mentor could not refuse.

Chen Mo has never been as anxious as he is now.

It was said in a book.

There are often only a few opportunities in a person's life, but a successful person actually only needs to seize one or two opportunities. Whether or not he can seize an opportunity is not only a personal choice, but also God's will.

If you seize the opportunity, you will reach the sky, and if you fail to seize the opportunity, you will be unknown.

Teacher Qing Hong didn't know about Chen Mo's complicated psychology at this moment.

After searching for a while on the back shelf, she finally found the book she was interested in.

She was planning to put away these books and take them back to the office to read slowly, and found that the library has been sorted out by Chen Mo these days, and the environment has been greatly improved.

I remember that every time I came here before, the bookshelves were very messy, and the borrowing desks were worn out, and I could always hear the shaking noises from the students, which made people feel irritable, and there were no drinking water facilities.

This made her involuntarily look at Chen Mo more.

I remember that when I was still a starving ghost, I often came here to read to prepare for future starving ghost trials...

Immediately after that, she unexpectedly sat down at the desk in the lending office and started reading here.

"call."

Seeing this, Chen Mo breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he seemed to make a decision.

After quietly leaving the library, Chen Mo quickly ran to the cafeteria and came to the window of the consumption area.

This is an optical brain device. Faced with various recipe menus on the light curtain, Chen Mo finally gritted his teeth and opened the intermediate recipe option.

"A cup of sugar-free fresh milk coffee, a high-quality nut pastry, a total of 12 points of contribution, please confirm (yes/no)."

"Yes."

Even though his heart was pierced, Chen Mo still agreed.

You must know that the few contribution points he has spent this month are just buying a few primary ingredients when he can't help it.

But Chen Mo didn't regret it.

He remembers that when he was in the second year of high school, his friend Wu Huiteng was pursuing a girl. He once told him that if you chase a girlfriend with the same 100 yuan, a lunch and two Haagen-Dazs snowballs will be two completely different things. Effect.

A woman is an emotional animal, she thinks very differently from a man.

Compare this moment.

With just 12 points, used to bribe Qing Hong’s mentor, Chen Mo’s reply would be a sneer, but if it’s a cup of high-quality coffee and a piece of delicate pastry, the effect will be completely different.
Of course, this is only the first step to success.

There is nothing to be courteous, and it is either a traitor or a thief.

Teacher Qinghong must also understand this point. If there is no suitable reason, it is likely to be self-defeating. Chen Mo must have an excuse that the other party cannot refuse.

After a while.

A cup of fragrant milk coffee with a kitten pattern drawn on the coffee, a fluffy nut pastry exuding a tempting aroma.

Fortunately, it is not meal time, otherwise I am afraid it will attract a lot of people's attention.

After all, for a starving ghost, buying this level of food is really too extravagant.

Chen Mo ran to the library quickly with pastries and coffee.

He has never been as nervous as he is now. He is afraid that his instructor has left because his speed is too slow, and he is also afraid that he will accidentally waste these precious ingredients because his speed is too fast.

at last.

When Chen Mo, who was trembling all the way, returned to the library and saw that familiar figure, he was relieved and tried to calm his breathing.

He walked slowly to Tutor Qinghong and placed coffee and pastries in front of her.

"Mentor, your coffee and pastry."

The aroma of coffee and pastries caught Qinghong's tutor's attention.

Frowning slightly.

She looked away from the book, looked at Chen Mo in surprise, and looked up and down for a while, revealing a thoughtful look.

"This kind of thing should not be something you can afford. You are really generous."

Then she sneered.

"Tell me, what's the matter."

Seeing the other party's expression, Chen Mo has no doubts that this will be the last calm before the storm. She also looked like this when she drove Du Qingqing out of the classroom.

If it is self-defeating, it will be miserable.

Instructor Qinghong sneered inwardly.

Could this little fellow naively think that such a small favor could impress him?
Can I not see his little thoughts?

He was so naive.

"Teacher, have you forgotten about that day?"

"Ok?"

Qing Hong was a little surprised, and the situation was a little different from what she had imagined.

Qing Hong had already made up her mind that no matter what demands this guy made of herself, she would fight back in the most severe way like a storm, and then poured down the coffee fiercely to make him give up those unrealistic things completely. fantasy.

Unexpectedly, the other party showed complex emotions of nostalgia and gratitude.

This made her a little confused.

Keeping her composure, Qing Hong raised her eyebrows.

"What did I forget?"

Chen Mo made a gesture of trying to smile.

"For you, it may be just a trivial matter, just a small packet of biscuits given to a student who is about to starve to death on the first day of school, but for me, it is a life-saving grace."

Uh?
After being reminded by Chen Mo, she remembered it.

At that time, because I was curious about his attributes, I did give him a small packet of leftover biscuits.

"When I was very young, my mother taught me to throw me papaya and repay it with Qiongju, and the bandit repays it. If you receive a drop of water, you should repay it with a spring. Yes, these foods are indeed not me. Being able to afford it now is half a month’s wages for me here, but I don’t expect to be able to repay your kindness because of this, I just try my best to express my heart.”

That small packet of biscuits back then was indeed something that Chen Mo remembered in his heart. At this time, his gratitude to Qing Hong’s mentor was also sincere and from the bottom of his heart. He had indeed thought about how to repay him, but he never thought it would be this way. That's all.

Qing Hong lowered her head when she heard the words.

"So it is."

My suspicion just now formed a sharp contrast with the other party's intention to repay the favor.

After wronging a good person, she couldn't help feeling guilty.

This kind of guilt is somewhat similar to pleading guilty.

After the end of the Mianchi meeting, Lin Xiangru made great contributions and was granted the title of Shangqing of Zhao Guo, ranking above Lianpo.

Lian Po refused to accept it, and threatened to humiliate Lin Xiangru face to face. After Lin Xiangru learned about it, he tried his best to avoid and tolerate, and did not conflict with Lian Po.

The disciples thought that Lin Xiangru was afraid of Lianpo, and Lin Xiangru replied: "Qin dare not offend Zhao because of me and General Lian. I avoided and tolerated General Lian because the state of Zhao was in front and I was behind."

After Lian Po learned about it, he was so ashamed that he later had the story of pleading guilty.

Qinghong picked up the coffee with both hands.

"Throw me a papaya, repay it with Qiongju, and the bandit repays it."

When the coffee with milk entered between her lips and teeth, she never imagined that it would be so delicious and sweet that her rock-solid heart could not help being touched inexplicably.

"Teacher, call me again if you need anything."

Chen Mo left in time.

Qinghong's heart is in a mess.

One is the guilt of wronging a good person. If it was just a bystander, or if it happened to an "NPC" in the mission world, as a natural disaster person, it would not be the case.

But it happened in the world of disasters, and it happened to her, which made her very upset.

The second is the gratitude of the other party.

I threw away the leftover biscuits and even forgot, but the other party was willing to use half a month's hard work income to repay me. This is even more precious in the disaster world, a place that pays attention to the interests of the world and the strong is king.

time flies.

Six o'clock in the afternoon is the closing time of the library.

Before Chen Mo could speak, Qing Hong took the initiative to get up, and when passing by Chen Mo, she casually said: "I remember you have the talent of stone skin?"

"Yes."

Chen Mo responded.

"Ah."

Qinghong nodded.

"Since you have talent, it's a pity to waste it like this. Don't just focus on the development of mind power, but also develop your physique. Only by surviving can you be qualified to become stronger. Come to my office at night. If I have time, I will treat you alone Guidance on the cultivation skills."

Without waiting for Chen Mo to respond, she strode out of the library.

"Thank you teacher."

Chen Mo murmured in a low voice, and his mood was equally complicated.

Like Mentor Qinghong, he is also ashamed of his dirty heart before, and uses his interests to calculate the gains and losses of his behavior of repaying gratitude.

But I am also glad that I seized this opportunity and seized this opportunity to change my destiny.

"When a man walks in troubled times, he should be bright and upright. Even in adversity, he should bow down and guard his position, waiting for the weather, and not fighting against fate."

After Chen Mo checked the library, he locked the doors and windows and left.
