Chapter 18

"Ding Ding-"

The ear-piercing alarm clock woke Qin Zhou up, and he fell into a dream all night mixed with sweetness and bitterness. The bitterness of life and the sweetness of Bai Zhiwang made his brain explode.

My stomach is still empty, I can't hold it and I can't fill it.Fried eggs and toast are placed on the coffee table, which at first glance is the work of Bai Zhiwang.

Qin Zhou looked down at his clothes and found that they were dry and refreshing pajamas. The dirty coat from yesterday had been washed and hung on the balcony, and there was even a piece of underwear on the hanger.

Qin Zhou was shocked.Last night, Bai Zhiwang, helped his ex-boyfriend wash his underwear?

I can't help thinking about this, otherwise I won't be able to see my whole face when I go to work.Qin Zhou could only force himself not to scatter wildly. Bai Zhiwang is a decent person, so he shouldn't do such beastly things as drinking and having sex.

Although Qin Zhou has doubts about the "decent person", the conclusion will not change, because Qin Zhou's body is not in the slightest, and the packaging of the hotel case is also intact, so Bai Zhiwang should have sent him back yesterday out of kindness. Take care, and "by the way" help change clothes... right?

He really didn't remember any embarrassing things he had done, but the embarrassment he got drunk when he was drunk was still vivid in his memory, Qin Zhou couldn't help being afraid, and thought of telling Bai Zhiwang about it.

Thinking of this, Qin Zhou began to sit down and eat breakfast.Counting it, he hasn't eaten the breakfast made by Bai Zhiwang for several months, and now the imported food still tastes like the original one.No matter how long the cold war lasted, Bai Zhiwang would accommodate his habits, saying that he would only cook breakfast for one person, but he would still leave two eggs with the yolks removed on the insulation layer, because Qin Zhou didn't like to eat yolks.

It was only when Qin Zhou found two tea eggs on the plate that there were only egg whites left that Qin Zhou realized that the relationship between them has not changed, and the 13-year love will never be fake.

Qin Zhou planned to thank Bo Zhiwang after this heartless breakfast and ask him about what happened last night, then stand aside and concentrate on research.

The plan died at the first step, and no one knew that the R&D team would meet early in the morning.Qin Zhou deliberately arrived 10 minutes early, but was told that the team leader was still in the conference room.

Since the first step can't be completed, Qin Zhou doesn't want to push forward with the next steps for the time being—it's not bad to be able to have sex while doing scientific research, but I don't know if the target will be an old friend.

Half an hour later, a report and meeting minutes were sent to everyone, and the paper was full of words such as "CDC algorithm", "adversarial network", and "texture synthesis".

Qin Zhou firmly believes that there is a specialization in the technology industry, so he didn't make it difficult for himself to understand the principles of deep learning or group sparse representation, and barely understood the various algorithm experiments conducted by the research and development team of this report on Cave B-04.

He turned straight to the last page to see the experimental results. Although he had psychological expectations, he was still surprised. He didn't expect that they could make such a high-level experiment in just one month. The results were already in line with the visual aesthetics at first glance.

However, the problem is also very obvious. Of course, the wisdom of thousands of years of civilization will not be so easily manipulated.Qin Zhou's long-term infiltration of art historical materials made his intuition come faster, and he saw many large damage areas or matching errors near the complex foreground and background, so whether it is line drawing or color restoration, it needs to be revised and drawn more carefully.

Qin Zhou was studying, when he heard someone knocking at the door, he looked up and saw that it was Bai Zhiwang.

Teacher Bai didn't go into the cave today, so he didn't wear work clothes. The thin shirt with landscape print was particularly eye-catching.This clothes looks like Qin Zhou's style at first glance, he bought it for him at the beginning, because he always saw Bai Zhiwang wearing black and white khakis, so he also made a set for Bai Zhiwang according to the outfits on TV, matching them After the end, he was complacent, his boyfriend is indeed a clothes hanger.

Two people have been together for so many years, it is impossible to completely erase all traces of each other after breaking up, and Bai Zhiwang didn't intend to erase, so Qin Zhou's brand is still on his body.

"Are you busy?" Bai Zhiwang asked, with a normal expression as if he hadn't experienced yesterday's episode.

Qin Zhou was impatient first, and stood up immediately under Meng Xuan's curious eyes: "Bai...cough, Mr. Bai." Almost calling him the wrong name, Qin Zhou changed his words, "I'm not busy, you can just say what you need."

Bai Zhiwang conveyed: "Director Cen said that there may be an initial defense next month, and the expert reviewers and people from the Bureau of Cultural Protection will come. Your link is the key point, and the director asked me to remind you."

"Okay, then I will try my best to mention the progress." Qin Zhou knocked on Meng Xuan's table after finishing speaking, "Xiao Meng, did you hear that?"

Meng Xuankuang nodded.

Bai Zhiwang put his hands in his pockets at ease: "That's good. Don't rush too much, pay attention to rest, there is time."

Caring so much for the team members has surpassed the duties of the team leader. Meng Xuan knew that he was probably the one who was loved and hated, so he kept his head down and grinned.

When Qin Zhou heard her stealth, he reluctantly pushed Bai Zhiwang out of the office, closed the door, and then whispered, "Thank you."

Bai Zhiwang didn't know what kind of reason to thank: "What?"

"Taking good care of me yesterday caused you a lot of trouble."

Bai Zhi looked around and said to him: "Does your stomach still hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt anymore." Qin Zhou thought about it and decided to say it straight, "By the way, I saw the clothes on the balcony..."

At the end of the conversation, Bai Zhiwang already guessed what he was going to ask: "Don't worry, I just saw that your clothes are dirty and you can't go to bed, so I changed them for you, nothing else."

Qin Zhou's brain suddenly short-circuited, and he asked bluntly, "Is there really nothing... Doing something else?"

Bai Zhiwang raised his eyebrows, "Are you quite sorry?"

"No, no, no," Qin Zhou wanted to bite his tongue, what was he talking about, "I mean, I didn't do anything hooligan, did I?"

It’s okay if I don’t mention it, but when I mention this Bai Zhiwang, I think of the scene of Qin Zhou biting his ear and calling “Brother” last night, his lower abdomen was burning, “The hooligan has played a lot, but I think you should I don't want to know the details."

Qin Zhou sighed, he didn't need to get to the bottom of the matter at this point: "...then you should stop talking."

After a while, Qin Zhou saw that he hadn't left yet, and thanked him again: "No matter what, thank you."

Said to keep half and keep half, Bai Zhiwang didn't know whether he was in Xie for the past ten years or yesterday's one hour.

They continued to greet each other as friendly colleagues, and then said goodbye.

After finishing this difficult social interaction, Qin Zhou turned around and entered the door. He didn't expect the sound insulation in this office to be so bad. When he turned his head, he saw Meng Xuan's face full of "I'm stunned".

"Look at what I do, look at the paintings." Qin Zhou was the best at pretending to be a wolf with a big tail, and forced himself to return to his work station without guilt.

Meng Xuan turned the chair's wheels, slid it close to him, and asked slyly, "Answer me a question, and I'll continue to look at the painting."

Qin Zhou was impatient: "Ask."

Meng Xuan said hesitantly: "Last night..."

"Hold back." Qin Zhou would not let Meng Xuan know about his drunken embarrassment, "Change the question."

"Okay, then I'll change." Meng Xuan thought for a long time before asking, "What's your relationship now?"

This is a good question, Qin Zhou didn't even think about it.At the beginning of the breakup, it was agreed to make a clean break, but now it seems obviously unrealistic.If it is a stranger who seems to have crossed the line, the safest description is actually: "a colleague who has known him for a long time."

"Ha." Meng Xuan cheered with a smile on his face, and said with a burst of blood, "It turns out that among your colleagues, you will carry the princess back to the room and then deliver medicine to make soup, and you will wear couple clothes the next day?"

After such a long list of "criminal evidence", Qin Zhou had nothing to say, and could only knock on her table angrily, "You are holding your breath for a long time."

Meng Xuan snickered twice, didn't tease him about it again, and continued to work until after six o'clock.

The cafeteria was not allowed to enter after seven o'clock, and only the small window next door was still open, so Meng Xuan and Qin Zhou hurriedly rushed downstairs on the dead line.

At noon, they deliver box lunches to the office building according to the meal standard, and they eat in the hotel lobby for dinner. There are three sets of ABC meals to choose from every day.

Qin Zhou chose a set meal A at random. It was a coincidence. After finishing the dishes, he turned around and saw a "colleague whom he had known for a long time" enter the lobby. Thinking of Meng Xuan's teasing, he decided to avoid suspicion. The distance between these two days was really too great.

Qin Zhou quietly ran to the corner and sat down. Meng Xuan searched for a long time to find him. Seeing that the air pressure was wrong, he was careful not to speak.

The lunch box was opened, and the spicy smell was tangy, making Qin Zhou cough twice.

Seeing Qin Zhou wrinkling his nose, Meng Xuan asked with concern, "You can't eat spicy food, can you? Why don't you choose a new portion?"

The kitchens are closed, re-election will cause a lot of trouble.Qin Zhou shook his head, "I'll just pick out the peppers and rinse them with water."

Meng Xuan's meal hadn't been touched yet, so she looked at her set meal and asked hesitantly, "Then why don't we change it? I don't have any chili, and I haven't touched my chopsticks yet."

Qin Zhou didn't like to bother others since he was a child, let alone his own students.He waved his hand, "It's okay, eat yours, it will be cold later."

Just halfway through the selection, the lid of the meat was suddenly taken away, and a brand new box of food was pushed in front of Qin Zhou.

The hand in front of him is too familiar. It has explored the most private corners of Qin Zhou's body countless times, and it has allowed them to go to bliss together countless times.Now it is picking up Qin Zhou's bowl and covering it.

Qin Zhou sat stiffly, his back collapsed into a straight line, and his mouth couldn't be opened as if it was rusted.

"Hello, Teacher Bai." Sensing the strange atmosphere, Meng Xuan called out tentatively.

Bai Zhiwang was still wearing the tie-dye shirt that he wore in the afternoon, with the long sleeves rolled up half way, outlining the perfect line of the man's forearm.He nodded to Meng Xuan as a greeting, and walked straight towards Qin Zhou.

"I just drank like that yesterday and still eat spicy food, so I'm not afraid of stomach pain anymore." Bai Zhiwang was not as calm as usual, with a bit of ambiguous reproach, he pushed his lunch box in front of Qin Zhou without any explanation, "Eat me This."
