MTL - I Heard That I Am a Scumbag, God of War Alpha-Chapter 4 sincere

The group assignment that Zhuang Yan and Qin Heyu had to catch up on was a decoration design project.

A family in Central Star submitted an application for housing renovation, and the professor extracted the information and arranged it for the students as a practice project.

The counterfeit didn't bother to care about this before, and didn't even download the operation model into the optical brain. But now Zhuang Yan doesn't want to pay zero directly - there are still three days until the deadline, so I have to struggle.

Time is actually very tight.

After eating the cake, Zhuang Yan washed his hands and asked the optical brain to project the model.

It was a small room that looked like a federal housing estate seventy years ago.

Less than 50 square meters, the room and living room are cramped, and there is also a small closed kitchen, half of the balcony with poor lighting, and a bathroom.

Only an elderly mother-in-law lived in the house. The remodeling application was made by her daughter—

My mother is getting old, it is inconvenient to live alone, and she is unwilling to move to live with her daughter. So I hope this room can be transformed to be more suitable for the elderly to live alone, with a butler robot to help take care of it, and install an intelligent monitoring system.

It is not difficult to solve it, Zhuang Yan dragged the projected model with his fingertips, and looked at it again at 360 degrees.

Qin Heyu leaned over, raised his eyes and asked, "What do you think?"

Zhuang Yan pointed to several places and said gently: "Here, here, and here, we can redesign the structure to make it easier for the elderly to walk."

Qin Heyu hummed.

"Intelligent monitoring is installed in these corners." With the movement of the fingertips, the house model floats with light spots. "The signal can cover the entire house without affecting the privacy of the homeowner."

Surprise gradually appeared on Qin Heyu's face.

"The butler robot is equipped by the federation, as long as the charging place is planned, it's not difficult."

Zhuang Yan paused, "But these things, students who have attended the class can think of them. So even if the design is done, I guess it's just a passing grade."

Qin Heyu: "...I'm sorry, I thought you were the type who didn't listen to lectures."

Zhuang Yan was not angry, he bent his eyes and smiled at Qin Heyu.

The budget given by the Federation is marked above the model. Zhuang Yan roughly deducted the current expenditure, leaving more than half of the balance, which can be used to improve other aspects.

He thought for a while, and then said, "What do you think, how about we design another smart home? The one that can adjust the height of tables and chairs and the opening and closing of cabinet doors, so that the elderly will be more convenient in their daily lives."

Qin Heyu: "..."

The poor scholar said quietly: "What a coincidence, Zhuang Yan, the plan I gave Chi Tianyi before is like this."

Zhuang Yan was stunned.

Qin Heyu sighed, and his mood sank again: "I knew he was a scumbag, and our design ideas are so similar, I might as well have chosen to be with you."

"…"Ok?

"Do group work together."

However, it is undeniable that similar ideas can indeed improve the efficiency of discussions. In the middle of the night, they had conceived a better design than what Qin Heyu had come up with alone.

From the overall style to every detail.

Qin Heyu even forgot his sadness, and gestured happily: "I made a whole set of lifting cabinets in the kitchen, but I was too tired alone, so I didn't have time to refine it."

Zhuang Yan's eyes lit up: "I can refine it tonight."

"Y-you don't have to finish it tonight," Qin Heyu felt embarrassed, "You leave half of it for me, and I will continue to work when I come back from work tomorrow afternoon."

"Tomorrow, there may be new ideas. It's better to refine them early, so as not to affect the progress."

After thinking about it, Qin Heyu was right, so he stopped being polite.

From this point of view, compared with Zhuang Yan, Chi Tianyi's partner who did not do his homework and cheated on his feelings is simply a rare scumbag in the world.

Qin Heyu sighed so much that he felt that he was blind in the past.

"Zhuang Yan," Qin Heyu said seriously, "After getting to know you, I realized that you are not the same as the rumors."

Zhuang Yan sat on the sofa and raised his face.

His appearance is non-aggressive and beautiful, with gentle eyebrows and slightly curved eyes. In the night when there was no sound of wind or insects, Qin Heyu had no reason to feel—

Zhuang Yan is like a quietly burning star.

Qin Heyu awkwardly explained the fact that he and his friend changed dormitories, and then said: "Anyway, this course is basically a group assignment, or I will live here this semester, and we will continue to cooperate."

"OK."

"Don't forget tomorrow, after class together, I'll treat you to dinner."

"...I remember!"

"Hey Zhuang Yan," Qin Heyu finally said, "Compared to inexplicable rivals in love, we are better friends. What do you think?"

The proud student boy stretched out an olive branch unnaturally, like a reserved little animal, except for his tail wagging quietly.

Zhuang Yan couldn't help laughing: "Yes."

Qin Heyu:?

Uh, what do you mean, be more serious, hey!

Anyway, the next day, the two went out to class together.

Qin Heyu's acquaintances were all stunned, and while Zhuang Yan was going to the bathroom between classes, he grabbed the client and questioned him for a while—

"Are you crazy?"

"If you break up with Chi Tianyi, you will break up. Why are you still getting involved with Zhuang Yan? His reputation is much worse than Chi Tianyi's!"

"Or," that friend pushed the reflective lens, "Are you planning to play the game of rival-turned-lover and slap Chi Tianyi in the face because of love?"

Qin Heyu turned his head, his face full of contempt: "Are you treating Zhuang Yan as a fool, or are you treating me as a fool?"

The joke greeted this reaction, and the friend was stunned.

"Oh yes, I'm pretty stupid to be cheated by Chi Tianyi for my relationship and homework."

friend:"…"

No, I didn't mean that!

After Zhuang Yan came back, he found that the atmosphere was not right. Qin Heyu sat in the middle angrily, absorbed in the class, and refused to even make eye contact with the friends on the right.

This state continued until the end of the class. The friend packed up his things and smiled shyly at Zhuang Yan: "Let's go first."

Zhuang Yan: ...?

After the crowd had almost dispersed, Qin Heyu packed up his things slowly: "Let's eat."

The cafeteria was not far away. Zhuang Yan and Qin Heyu each ordered a nutritious meal and found a seat to sit down.

Zhuang Yan asked: "Did you quarrel?"

Qin Heyu snorted unwillingly: "They talk nonsense."

Zhuang Yan didn't know how to comfort him, so he could only say: "Then don't worry too much about it, eat more."

Qin Heyu put his head down and picked up the rice quickly, as if to vent his anger. Zhuang Yan is used to eating slowly, so he couldn't keep up with his speed.

Within five minutes, Qin Heyu put the tableware away: "Take your time."

One person eats in silence while the other waits in silence. This scene is really awkward. So Qin Heyu spoke first:

"There is no class in the afternoon, but I have to go to work, and I won't be back until around seven in the evening. I will continue to discuss homework with you."

Zhuang Yan swallowed the food in his mouth, and hummed: "The previous design has also been refined on the model. I plan to visit that family in the afternoon."

Qin Heyu's eyes widened suddenly: "What are you doing there?"

"See what else could be improved."

Qin Heyu's face was full of shock and admiration.

The house to be remodeled is on the other side of the city, and Zhuang Yan stayed up too late yesterday. In the self-driving car, he took a short nap.

I vaguely dreamed that many years ago, Ning Huabi was bending over, with her broken hair hanging by her ears, and she gently took up a pen to explain what kind of concept design was.

"Xiao Yan," Ning Huabi said, "Design is not about showing off skills, it is about helping people like you and me solve problems and make everyone's lives better."

She also said: "In the future, you have to remember that no matter what kind of project, there must be something sincere in your design."

That year, Zhuang Yan thought in a daze, what does sincerity mean.

Woke up to a long red light.

Zhuang Yan sat up straight, and saw the corners of his eyes flushed from sleep in the reflection of the glass window.

He turned on the optical brain, and a deep male voice was reading the news. I didn't listen carefully, and only noticed after the words passed by my ears, as if the word Chen E was mentioned.

Zhuang Yan hesitated, dragging the progress bar back with his cool fingertips.

"Senior Colonel Chen E has been transferred to the central star, and will be guided by the Federal Military Academy."

The red light turns green, and the car continues to drive automatically.

Zhuang Yan hung his finger on the progress bar, and he was stunned for a while.

In terms of location, the Federal Military Academy is very close to Zhuang Yan's university.

Go out from the gate and turn right, and within five minutes' walk, you will find the side entrance of the military academy.

The back of the neck began to ache again, and the subtle feeling of being temporarily marked last time seemed to still remain on the skin. Zhuang Yan roughly calculated in his heart that Alpha's susceptibility period must not be completely over yet.

He made a sad wish, hoping that Chen E would stop looking for him for a while. At least don't come until the homework is turned in.

Now there are only two days left.

Homework is more important than anything else.
