Chapter 654 A Bunch of Good Examples

When Li Ye, Wen Leyu, and Fu Yiruo arrived at the University of California, they saw hundreds of international students, and there were people coming over in twos and threes from behind, and happily joined the crowd.

So he asked Zhen Rongrong: "Are there so many mainland students at UC?"

Zhen Rongrong pursed her lips and said: "Some of them came from other schools, and some of them have graduated but have not returned to China."

"."

Before Zhen Rongrong went abroad, she was angry because Li Ye asked her if she would come back. She felt that Li Ye was questioning the personality of Zhen Rongrong, a veteran D member.

But when she arrived at the lighthouse, she deeply understood why Li Ye questioned it.

Not to mention the material gap between skyscrapers and modern cities, just the fact that there were so many "pioneers" stranded in the lighthouse made it possible for Zhen Rongrong and others to "walk to higher places" one by one. example.

This thing is just like the cruel environment during World War II. If there is one informer among a hundred people, he is a traitor, but if there are twenty informants out of a hundred people.

So what high moral bottom line do the other eighty people have?

Is it a hot and spicy flower girl, or a red heart chewing tree bark? This is a question that tests human nature. It may be more obvious than the effect of pepper water.

For example, the situation Zhen Rongrong is facing now, "If others don't return to China, then wouldn't I be a fool if I go back to China?" This is definitely not an exception.

"Okay, don't think about what is there and what is not. Hurry and help move things, otherwise it will be too late for the New Year's Eve dinner."

Li Ye noticed Zhen Rongrong's loneliness and called her to help move things from the pickup truck to add some dishes for the upcoming dinner.

"Li Ye, why did you buy so many things? You also bought so many vegetables. You are really... ugh."

"You can't just come with your mouth, right? We're not like that."

After Zhen Rongrong saw the meat and vegetables in the pickup truck, she really didn't know what to say about Li Ye.

Although it is definitely not appropriate to attend a dinner party empty-handed, Li Ye brought too many things.

Especially the more niche vegetables.

In the lighthouse, some vegetables are very cheap, such as potatoes, but some vegetables are extremely expensive, such as water spinach.

After many international students have lived here for a long time, the desire to eat a plate of green leafy vegetables is even stronger than the desire to eat.

"Wow, Rongrong, did you win the lottery? Why did you get so many vegetables? You can make dumplings filled with chives and eggs today!"

"My classmate brought it over. He was too embarrassed to come over and eat it for free."

"Hey, did your classmate join a big company? Is he so wealthy? I saw Xia Zhemin just now. Did you know? He joined Boeing, and his starting annual salary was US$32,000!"

“None of my classmates came to Lighthouse for exchange and internship, and the internship company’s treatment is good.”

"Then will he stay at the Lighthouse after his internship?"

"Probably not. He wants to go back to the mainland."

"Ah! There's no future in that! Why not stay at the lighthouse?"

"."

Zhen Rongrong smiled awkwardly and looked sideways at Li Ye.

In the end, Li Ye was not angry at all. Instead, he led Wen Leyu and Fu Yiruo to mix with the dumpling-making classmates, chopping the fillings and rolling out the dough.

Li Ye understands the principle that people go to higher places and water flows to lower places. Everyone has his own ambitions. If you think this is a higher place, then just go.

Moreover, when the window for overseas students was opened, the above had considered this situation. Even if two or three out of ten students returned to the mainland, they would still make money.

People who are willing to work are welcome everywhere. After Li Ye took over the job of chopping stuffing from a boy whose arms were sore, everyone quickly became familiar with each other.

After Sister Zhen arrived, everyone became more lively.

"Hey, this classmate, can you kill a chicken?"

"What?"

Li Yezheng was waving two kitchen knives with his hands up and down! Suddenly a girl ran over with a red face and asked for help.

The girl said sheepishly: "Some overseas Chinese gave us some live chickens, but we couldn't kill them."

Li Ye nodded and said, "I can kill chickens, but are you sure those Dengtao classmates won't think we are too cruel?"

Today, overseas students from the mainland gathered together for a party, and some students from other countries also came to join in the fun.

Some lighthouse people don't like killing animals, so if Li Ye performs bloodletting and hair scalding live, I wonder if it will cause some people's psychological discomfort.

"No, no, no," the girl shook her head like a rattle and said, "We will kill it ourselves in the corner over there, but we have four chickens in total, and one of them has already flown away just now."

Li Ye really couldn't refuse, so he had to follow the girl and saw three roosters with their claws tied up, as well as a few frowning classmates.

Looking at the loveless expressions on their faces and the cocks holding their heads high, Li Ye could figure out what just happened.

This is not to blame these children. Although they may be able to cook at home, the work of killing chickens is usually done by the adults in the family, and children cannot get involved.

Li Ye works as a chef at Zaojun Temple. Killing chickens must be a piece of cake. He raised and lowered the knife with his hand, and the throats of two chickens were cut in succession and their blood was drained.

But just when he was about to kill the third one, he suddenly heard a high-decibel scream, and his hands trembled in shock.

"Ah~, how can you be so cruel?"

Who the hell is so cheap?

Li Ye held a knife in one hand and a chicken in the other, and turned his head angrily to look over.

Yes, it was an acquaintance, the weak Miss Ruan Shujun who was weak after giving birth.

Before Li Ye could speak, Wen Leyu, who was helping on the side, said unhappily: "If you think it's cruel, then don't eat it later. You almost let Li Ye cut off your hand because of your startle."

"But...but that's a life."

Ruan Shujun grabbed the corner of her clothes with grievance, as if she was about to shed tears in the next moment, such a weak image of the Madonna.

Sister Zhen stood up and looked at Ruan Shujun sarcastically and said: "Ruan Shujun, you even have mercy on the life of a chicken, what about the life of a human being?"

"."

Ruan Shujun's tears flowed down. A few days ago, she personally strangled the life of a human baby.

"Tian Xizhen, why are you still so aggressive when you talk! Hehe, Xiao Ruan is soft-hearted and can't stand killing, so don't bother with him!"

A tall man came from behind Ruan Shujun and called out Sister Zhen's name with a smile.

Sister Zhen narrowed her eyes and asked lightly: "Xia Zhemin, is your current job very idle? It's 800 miles from Seattle to here, and you actually have time to come and join in the fun?"

The man named Xia Zhemin spread his hands and said: "Thanks to the work system and convenient transportation of the lighthouse, I only need to work five days a week, and it doesn't take any time to come by plane."

Li Ye narrowed his eyes and remembered the name Xia Zhemin.

Boeing is now a big company!

Xia Zhemin also noticed Li Ye's eyes, and took the initiative to walk over and stretched out his hand: "Hello, Xia Zhemin."

Li Ye raised the kitchen knife in his hand and said: "Li Ye, I'm killing a chicken! It's not very convenient."

"Hehe~"

Xia Zhemin smiled and said: "Did you just come here to study this year? I am from Tsinghua University in China, and I studied for a master's degree at the University of California, and now I work at Boeing."

Li Ye said lightly: "I am from Peking University in China. I may study for a master's degree somewhere, but if I work, I must be in China."

"."

Xia Zhemin's eyelids jumped for no reason.

Peking University?

Is this going to challenge my Tsinghua University?
