Chapter 368: The gold content of a master's degree is still decreasing

~18 min read 3,439 words

In their conversation, Lin Li and Ceng Ziang gradually integrated into these four people, became familiar with each other, and even started to make plans to have a meal together after the dating event ended.

Although Lin Li declined, after all, he still had to rush to evening self-study, but getting along with these adults was quite harmonious.

The people of Xiling are still exerting effort.

The only thing that made Lin Li a little uncomfortable was Wang Baiyu's occasional resentful and self-pitying gaze, which made people feel creepy.

Lin Li certainly knew why Brother Wang looked at him like that.

But missed is missed.

My dear Yu, give me up, you deserve better, but not the best, which is me.

The best must be given to Chen Yu.

It can only be said that it is fortunate that Wang Baiyu couldn't hear Lin Li's inner voice.

Otherwise, if he knew that Lin Li was so shameless, he would... like him even more, and feel even more regretful.

Time passed gradually, and the others in the group arrived one after another.

The quality of the women participating in this dating event was a bit uneven.

Most of them were passable, and there were a few who were quite good-looking, who should become the objects of competition for the men.

But there was also an anti-Hulk armor, which could be called the plus gender-swapped version of Zhou Bao, and could be considered Wutugu in Three Kingdoms Kill.

"This one is also an old friend. She was here when I came, and she's still here now."

"And Lin Li, let me tell you, she belongs to the classic 'Little Red Book' obsessed type. A few months ago, it seemed like the matchmaking agency quietly stopped letting her come, but I don't know why she came again this month."

When this tank drove into the activity room, Wang Baiyu lowered his voice and said to Lin Li.

"I feel that if you insert a lamp wick into her belly button and use it as a Seven-Star Lamp, it would be enough for Zhuge Liang to live until 2077, go out and take photos with a group of sixty or seventy-year-old men, and post a 'Good morning, Night City' on Moments." Lin Li clicked his tongue.

Wang Baiyu felt deeply, nodded, and Lin Li's words were fair. Even if Bo Le came, he would say it was a good horse: "Right, I—"

But halfway through the sentence, Wang Baiyu stopped.

Because he found that Lin Li had been secretly sizing up the other party, and even licked the corner of his mouth.

Wang Baiyu: "(; o_o)?"

Hey, no.

If what Tear Bar likes is this type, Wang Baiyu would have to reconsider whether to be with Tear Bar.

Damn, if we go out to find technicians together in the future, and I turn my head to find Tear Bar blanching lard, who can stand that?

"Lin Li, is your girlfriend really super cute?" Wang Baiyu couldn't help but ask.

Lin Li turned his head, realizing that Brother Wang had obviously misunderstood something.

The reason why Lin Li was looking forward to it was simply because he felt that if the other party was really as Wang Baiyu described, then if he had a matching session later, she would be very suitable for him—because wasting the other party's time wouldn't make him feel burdened.

And Wang Baiyu also said that this person hadn't been notified of the event for several months. Lin Li even suspected that this was a woman Fan Hong had specially prepared for him.

Sister Fan, oh Sister Fan, your intention is too heavy.

But there was no need to explain this to Wang Baiyu. Lin Li just smiled and took out his phone, starting to show off.

"What a young and pure girl, just like pure urine that isn't yellow because you drink too much water!" After seeing Chen Yu's photo, Wang Baiyu exclaimed.

Lin Li giggled: "Right!"

It's really a case of great minds thinking alike. He felt the same way the first time he saw Chen Yu.

"Sister Fu, hasn't the time already arrived? Hasn't it started yet?"

The time had reached the scheduled start time of the event, but seeing that Fu Miao had no intention of guiding yet, Shao Hengkai, as a representative, stood up and asked with some confusion.

"Wait a moment, please." Fu Miao nodded apologetically to Shao Hengkai, "One person hasn't arrived yet. He said he would be here soon, sorry to keep everyone waiting for him."

Speak of the devil, just as Fu Miao finished speaking, a man rushed over from outside the glass door.

After pushing the door open, the man was panting: "Sorry, sorry, I'm late."

"I was just cleaning a house, over three hundred square meters. Damn, it was too tiring, and the actual cleaning time was much longer than I expected, so the schedule was wrong, and I was late. Sorry again, sorry again!"

Although this was said to Fu Miao, the voice was very loud, and everyone in the activity room could hear it.

And after these words were said, everyone in the activity room, regardless of gender, instantly focused their attention on him.

It could be clearly observed that the eyes of several women lit up.

And Lin Li's group of six had their pupils shaking, looking at each other.

Holy crap! Scheming green tea boy!

Lin Li now suspected whether being late was a part that this guy deliberately designed.

So this is the terror of the adult world, every gesture is calculated.

Damn, it's so desperate, Lin Li felt that he would never laugh again. Of course, if there was a kiss from the monitor, that's another story.

"Damn, dead pretending brother, watch how I dull his edge!" When Lin Li was in heat, Wang Baiyu had already recovered from the shock, sat up, and said to the people around him with a face full of bad luck.

Then, Wang Baiyu looked up at the man and smiled sarcastically: "Yo, buddy, the house is so big, why don't you hire a housekeeper to clean it? You wouldn't even have the money to hire a housekeeper, would you?"

"Ah?" The man scratched his head, "I'm the housekeeper hired by their family. If I hire another housekeeper, there's no price difference to earn."

Wang Baiyu: "(; o_o)?"

"..."

The activity room was silent.

The light in the women's eyes went out.

But the men—especially the light in Lin Li's eyes, all lit up again!

Other men: Great, not a strong enemy!

Lin Li: Great, it's a talent!

Xiling! Xiling! This is Xiling!

"Haha, so that's how it is, buddy. You didn't arrive too late, it's not a big problem. Come, there's just a seat here, come, come, sit. We're all buddies, all brothers."

Wang Baiyu, who was the most embarrassed at this time, tried hard to make up for it, from being arrogant to being respectful, which is funny to think about.

"Thanks." The other party was overjoyed upon hearing this and sat next to Ceng Ziang—the seat Lin Li didn't sit in when he didn't sit next to Wang Baiyu.

"Alright, since everyone is here, our event officially begins!" Fu Miao also clapped her hands with a smile, walked to the middle of the activity room, and said to everyone.

"First of all, I'm very happy that everyone is participating in this dating event hosted by our Yizhen."

"Before all the sessions start, everyone naturally needs to introduce themselves."

"I hope everyone's self-introduction won't be too simple and sloppy. The first impression score is a very important thing, and after the self-introduction, there will be the first matching session, so everyone must introduce themselves seriously and listen to others' introductions seriously."

"Otherwise, you might not be able to find your desired target."

"Alright, let's have the men start first, let's start with this handsome guy in the plaid shirt closest to me."

"Um, okay, hello everyone, my name is..."

"Ziang, how do you plan to introduce yourself later?" Shao Hengkai looked at Ceng Ziang and asked.

"Ah?" Ceng Ziang was stunned for a moment, scratched his head, and then replied: "Just a normal self-introduction? Name, age, university, favorite sports, and games I like to play..."

Shao Hengkai looked at Wang Baiyu upon hearing this: "Brother Wang, it's time for your teaching again."

Wang Baiyu nodded and waved his index finger at Ceng Ziang:

"You are very wrong to think like this, Ziang. Everyone is here for a blind date, it's very realistic. This is completely different from self-introductions in school."

"For example, if you have a house and a car, then after you finish your name and age in your self-introduction, you can immediately follow up with 'have a house and a car', and if the house and car are particularly good, just say how good they are."

"And if you don't have a house or a car, just don't say anything, pretend you don't know you need to say this at all. And if you have one of the house or car, this is when you need to embellish it, for example, say 'house already has, car has purchase intention, currently picking...'"

Ceng Ziang widened his eyes, holy crap, it seems like all real stuff.

"Listen to Brother Wang, he hasn't eaten pork but has seen too many pigs run. Our self-introductions were all taught by him." Shao Hengkai also echoed with a smile.

"Okay, Brother Wang, my car and house..." Ceng Ziang nodded and said all his conditions.

"Then you say it like this..." After teaching this part, Wang Baiyu continued to ask: "You said you have already found an internship? How much is the salary?"

"This is not much, because I'm still an intern, the daily subsidy is 140."

"What about after becoming a regular employee?"

"Four thousand something."

"A bit low, what is your major."

"Finance, but the job I found has nothing to do with my major."

"It's okay, Finance is a major that sounds high-end, that's enough."

"Then Ziang, I suggest you say later that you are 'a senior in Finance, currently just started looking for a job, have already received an offer of five thousand, but this salary does not meet your expectations, and you are still submitting to other companies'..."

"..."

"..."

"That's about it, you just put together a few of my previous examples for your self-introduction. You can use it in any blind date scene in the future."

After Ceng Ziang reviewed and recited it in his heart, he couldn't hold it: "Holy crap, brother, is this still me?"

"It's okay." Wang Baiyu waved his hand with a smile, "Everyone is packaging, and the women's side is the same." "Ziang, brother will tell you a few key words that are 'down-to-earth'. If these words come out of a woman's mouth, you have to be careful."

"Brother, tell me, I'm recording." Ceng Ziang took out his phone, opened the memo, and asked for advice with an open mind.

"Saying the profession is preparing for the civil service exam is equivalent to having no job and being a parasite; saying the hobby is traveling means she loves spending money very much; saying the personality is slow to warm up means the personality is very arrogant, if you don't lick her for ten days or half a month, she won't bother with you;"

"Body type slightly fat means tank, you should know this in your heart. Requiring ambition means you have to have money."

"Finally, if you hear something like not liking to do housework, pursuing quality of life, focusing on festivals and a sense of ritual, your mother, don't answer, don't answer, don't answer, run! This is a fairy!"

Ceng Ziang nodded solemnly: "Learned!"

Then he started to review and revise.

"Brother, it's my turn, it's my turn, how should I introduce myself?" Seeing that the conversation here was over, Lin Li asked with anticipation.

Wang Baiyu: "I have AIDS."

Lin Li: "(; o_o)?"

Lin Li silently moved a bit further away from Wang Baiyu.

"You kid aren't really here for a blind date, what are you teaching! Your girlfriend is so good-looking, what blind date are you going on, go back and kiss your girlfriend!" Wang Baiyu scolded with a smile.

Lin Li gave a thumbs up, Brother Wang, borrow your good words.

Then Wang Baiyu asked casually: "Tear Bar, are you still in university like Ziang, or have you graduated?"

"Just graduated." Lin Li still answered according to the persona he registered at the matchmaking agency.

"What major did you study?"

"Studied law."

Wang Baiyu, who just asked casually, eyes lit up:

"You also studied law? Me too, and I'm a Master of Laws! Tear Bar, have you found a job now, are you working in a law firm? If you haven't found one, do you need brother to introduce you?"

Lin Li raised his eyebrows, a little surprised.

Didn't expect that the information he made up hit someone else's gun.

In this situation, if he continued to make it up, there might be loopholes.

Should have made up a more obscure major, such as cryogenic engineering.

But it doesn't matter, Lin Li has his own way.

"Already working..." Lin Li nodded.

"Which firm? Maybe I can help you say hello. Although it won't be a decisive help, it should be no problem to make you have an easier time."

Wang Baiyu said enthusiastically and with a senior attitude.

Lin Li: "Hogwarts."

"Oh oh, Hog—Wo?! rts?!" The enthusiastic Wang Baiyu repeated the name of the firm with a strange tone, and his smile froze on his face.

(; o_o)?

What the hell is that?

"Brother, the law I studied is a bit different from the law you studied. I'm not a lawyer, I'm a mage, I studied how to rub fireballs." Lin Li smiled gently.

Wang Baiyu was expressionless: "Then rub one for me now."

"Holy crap!"

The man's introduction was interrupted by this sound, and everyone looked at Wang Baiyu with confusion.

"It's okay, it's okay, sorry, you continue." Wang Baiyu apologized awkwardly.

When everyone's attention shifted away, Wang Baiyu looked at Lin Li in shock: "Tear Bar, are you really a mage?"

Wang Baiyu just really saw fire appear on Lin Li's hand.

No way, is Lin Li really a mage?!

"Tear Bar, is your firm still hiring? Can you help me say hello? I suddenly feel that a Master of Laws is still too trashy. I want to go further and become a Doctor of Laws!"

Wang Baiyu acted like a junior at this moment and said seriously.

He wanted to progress too much.

And Wang Baiyu did regret stopping at a master's degree and not becoming a doctor.

After entering society, he found that the title of doctor is really very useful.

If a doctor turns evil and calls himself a crazy doctor, this name sounds very awesome, with the ability to destroy the world.

But if he only has a master's degree and turns evil, and then calls himself a crazy master, this name sounds like the crazy ravings of someone who can't write a graduation thesis.

Is a doctor very useful?

The previous opportunity was not cherished, but now the broad road of law has appeared in front of him again. This time, Wang Baiyu didn't want to miss it!

So in order to persuade Tear Bar, Wang Baiyu took off his coat and pulled his clothes to one side of his shoulder:

"Tear Bar, not joking, have you seen it? I have a scar on my left arm. I have suspected since I was a child that this was a scar left by Voldemort trying to kill me. Now it seems, it really is! I have talent!"

Lin Li: "..."

What a coincidence, he has this scar too.

This is a vaccine scar!

The fireball just now was naturally a spell Lin Li mastered today.

So Lin Li now needs to make up for the act of showing off that he couldn't help but do just now. He smiled:

"Brother, it's not a real fireball, it's a magic prop, fire paper, you should have heard of it, right? I just happened to have one in my pocket, so I used it."

"Hogwarts is a joke. When I said I studied law just now, it was actually a way to sound better. I'm actually from a vocational school. My major is modern magic design and performance, but it doesn't sound good to say it out, so I always say I studied law."

Wang Baiyu: "Eh?"

After completely digesting these two sentences, Wang Baiyu wanted to speak but stopped, wanted to stop but spoke, and finally couldn't hold it:

"Tear Bar, you actually asked me how to teach you self-introduction just now. You can turn a vocational school major into studying law, your skill is even stronger than mine..."

Lin Li just chuckled.

This solved the problem of him saying he was a law student but not a real law student.

He is really a genius.

"Brother, so you are still a Master of Laws?" Lin Li quickly shifted the topic back to Wang Baiyu.

"Yeah."

"I have some legal problems that have troubled me for a long time, can I consult you?"

"Tell me about it." Wang Baiyu nodded.

Lin Li: "Now the sexual consent age is 14, and playing games is 18. Does this mean that children can't play games after coming home from school on weekends, but they can go out to date?"

Wang Baiyu: "(; o_o)?"

Lin Li: "Zhang San is violating a girl, I ask Zhang San if I can join, he says yes, and then I violate Zhang San, but later Zhang San calls the police, am I breaking the law?"

Wang Baiyu: "(; o_o)?"

Lin Li: "I will be a boss in the future, employees work 12 hours, but the law stipulates 8 hours, can I confiscate their illegal income?"

"Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop." Wang Baiyu made a pause gesture, his mouth and eyes twitching at the same time.

The brain is trembling.

Wang Baiyu took a deep breath and smiled: "Lin Li, to tell you the truth, I'm actually from a vocational school too. The law I studied is also modern magic design and performance. Don't consult me, I don't understand either."

Lin Li: "Then can you rub a fireball for me."

"..."

Wang Baiyu thought about it, it's better not to be with Lin Li.

Thank that unknown pure girl, she has really worked hard during this time.

When the two's legal session ended today, the boys in front had finished introducing themselves, and it was their turn.

"Hello everyone, my name is Zhang Chen, I'm 24 years old this year, I belong to the plant-type boy..."

The housekeeper man who had just finished cleaning over three hundred square meters, because he was closest to the last boy who introduced himself, stood up and introduced himself first.

Not having learned from Wang Baiyu's side, his introduction was very conventional.

But Lin Li was instantly attracted by this term, and then couldn't believe his speculation.

This is pornographic, right?

So when the other party finished introducing himself and sat down, and Ceng Ziang stood up to connect, he leaned over curiously and asked the other party in a low voice:

"Buddy, what does plant-type boy mean?"

"Plant-type boy? Probably... just like a plant, simple and direct, optimistic and sunny, full of courage and hope, free and romantic, independent and full of love..."

To be honest, it was quite embarrassing to praise himself in such detail in front of boys. Zhang Chen's voice lowered as he spoke, feeling a bit ashamed:

"Anyway, it's a term I saw on Little Red Book. I think it suits me, so I used it..."

"Oh—" Lin Li suddenly realized and breathed a sigh of relief:

"So it's this kind of plant-type boy. I was wondering how it could be what I thought... That makes me feel relieved. I thought you were that direct, buddy."

Seeing Lin Li say this, not only Zhang Chen, but Wang Baiyu and others also curiously looked at Lin Li.

"Tear Bar, then what is your understanding of a plant-type boy?" Wang Baiyu asked on behalf of everyone.

Lin Li scratched his head, feeling a bit shy for once:

"'Stems' and 'leaves' are particularly many, as long as there is plenty of water, grass can also be 'grassed' into flowers."
