Chapter 3

"It's your higher up, why aren't you trying to gain favor?"

As Lisa's mood is quite good, she patiently explained: "Do you know why I want to do my training with him?"

"You already said that he has the highest rate."

"Since he has such a high rate, he wouldn't easily let anything to influence him of his judgment about a person. In other words, I don't need to try to gain his favor, look at his mood, and think of anything when working with him. I can put everything into my work. I can live comfortably and freely."

Mingyu lit up as he saw the bright light in his sister's eyes. While his sister was being excited, Mingyu changed the subject to something he was interested in: "Next year, you will graduate from college and would have a stable job. Is there any single man at your workplace? When are you going to find a boyfriend?"

Lisa looked at her brother with a strange expression: "Why is this concerning you?"

Mingyu felt disheartened, he knew she wasn't trying to start a fight with him but actually felt that this issue didn't concern him.

Mingyu felt helpless as he messed Lisa's short hair. Lisa couldn't do anything so she just let him. The moment he stopped, she turned to look at him.

Her hair was as messy as a bird's nest, but she still looked calm while there was a trait of a faint smile in her eyes.

Mingyu also turned soft as he caught her expression: "You are 24 years old this year. You aren't old yet, however, you never had anyone. Plus, you also don't have much interest in the opposite sex... Who wouldn't be worried?"

Lisa turned silent. She suddenly straightened herself and said in a serious tone: "I'm sorry. It isn't that I don't have any interest. I will try harder in the future."

When Mingyu was 5 years old and Lisa was 2 years old, their mother passed away.

Their mother was a business lady. She left behind an office and let their uncle take care of it. After Mingyu graduated from college, he inherited the place and made the company become well known in the business. Their father was a professor who took care of them after his wife passed away and is still alone till now.

The calm and collective personality that Mingyu inherited was from both his father and mother. After only a couple of years, he already stood firmly in the city Lin. He always changed his girlfriend more than he changed his clothes.Where did he get his player personality?

Lisa's personality was like her strong-willed mother. She excelled in everything; a person with a high IQ, but with an especially low EQ.

Mingyu didn't think so. He felt that his sister just didn't care about it.

"I don't want my boyfriend to be an officer like me," Lisa said.

"Why?"

"Not compatible. I have a dangerous job during working hours and also not stable. That's why the other has to have a job that is stable, so we could create a good family together by complementing each other."

Mingyu also didn't want his sister to be with an officer. In fact, he doesn't trust his sister to find her own boyfriend even though she was specialized in reading people.

"How about I introduce people to you?" Mingyu said.

Lisa turned silent for a moment. She didn't think this was a bad idea: "That's fine. I want to find someone in the STEM (Science, technology, engineer, mathematical) field. Research, chemical, construction, etc are alright."

happily asked: "Why?"

Lisa replied: "Men in that area have low levels of difficulty".

Mingyu laughed loudly.

To be honest, Mingyu was kind of wrong to think that Lisa didn't care about the topic of love. She did fall for someone, however, the relationship ended before it started.

Lisa started being a student assistant in her third year. She often had the chance to take part in many cases while sometimes also helping her professor grade lower grade students' paper.

A male student caught her eyes with his handwriting.

The professor had the habit of wanting the students' papers to be handwritten while rejecting typed papers. Among all students, that male student had the most special handwriting. A handwriting that was bright like the moon at night, deep and concise.

After that, she met him. He wore a white shirt with black pants, black-rimmed glasses, tall frame with a bright face. He shyly called her senior.

Lisa never thought about liking a younger guy. But when she met him, she finally understood the meaning of act fast if you want to get a good guy because if slow, you will lose the opportunity. So Lisa bought a bunch of books about love from different time periods, in the country to abroad, and including books about the human mind. She also stayed up all night to map out her plan to pursue him.

At the end, she tasted the first defeat in her life.

That male student clearly understood his charm, a veteran in love. Lisa didn't make much effort to find out information that he changed girlfriend 3 times in one semester. His girlfriends were all beautiful girls with long hair and legs from the art college next to theirs. In addition, they were of ages, from older to younger.

"The warriors haven't started to fight a war, but already lost because of illness". The only thing she could do was to throw away the books she bought. When she randomly met the male student, she just nodded coldly.

Perhaps there was someone who liked her. He was 2 years older, a research student. He was an honest man with excellent study results but was, even more, introverted than her. A day before graduation, he suddenly placed his hands on her shoulder from behind and said quietly: "To me, you are very special."

During that time, Lisa was busy with her important data with US people. His trembling voice reached her ears but didn't reach her brain.

After a while, his work got moved to B city. And Lisa's job also ended. One day, she looked at all the books that senior gave to her. She then realized he confessed to her that day.

Remembering the past, Lisa understood. She was not good at male-female relationships, but she also understood that she needed to work harder on it.

However, after giving the responsibility to Mingyu, Lisa naturally eliminated this matter out of her head.
