Chapter Six Hundred and Ninth Sin Ah

After a few chats, the girl named Melanie realized that Eric probably wouldn’t be able to take her own car. Although the first time she summoned the courage to talk to the boy ended in failure, Melanie politely talked to Eric. Ke said goodbye and drove away.

The red Ford sedan drove across the Charles River, and after a few dozen meters, Melanie turned into a small road and parked the sedan in the wide parking lot in front of Harvard Business School. Melanie took it out from the back of the car and bought it The daily necessities, some absent-mindedly walked towards an apartment building to the east of the parking lot, still thinking about the guy just now, the feeling of deja vu came to her mind again, this time, Melanie realized that this is definitely not a psychological problem. Visually, she must have seen that guy somewhere.

All the way to the apartment on the third floor, put the convenience bag on the coffee table in the living room, and inadvertently saw the copy of "Business Week" next to it, Melanie was suddenly shocked and picked up the copy of "Business Week" in front of her. " turned up.

"Business Week" was bought by Melanie's roommate. The little girl from an aristocratic British family often read information about a big Hollywood figure in the newspapers and magazines. It is said that the two had a brief intersection. Therefore, she was also teased as a little nympho.

Quickly turning a few pages, Melanie quickly found a photo of Eric in high spirits at the signing conference of the Firefly acquisition. She stretched out her hand to block the eyes of Eric's avatar, and then fantasized about Eric for a moment. Putting on the casual look of the guy just now, he finally threw the magazine back to the coffee table, leaned on the sofa and said to himself: "It really is Eric Williams, no wonder he even himself Not even an introduction."

Remembering that every time she caught that shy roommate secretly reading the news of Eric Williams in the newspaper, she would beat the other party with all kinds of lace news about the young Hollywood tycoon, Melanie inexplicably Feel a little ashamed. Melanie couldn't help recalling the brief encounter between the two just now. Although Eric refused to introduce himself, his gentlemanly initiative to open the trunk for him, as well as the humor and casualness in his words, all proved that he absolutely Is a very attractive man. Perhaps, if he had actually gotten into his car at the time. And revealed her identity, knowing what kind of person he was, she herself would have a hard time resisting this attraction.

Thinking of this, Melanie couldn't help but said to herself: "If the little nympho knows that Eric Williams is coming to Boston. It must be very happy."

Melanie knew that there was no connection between that little nympho and Eric Williams, and when she realized this, she suddenly hesitated, or rather jealous, from the bottom of her heart. She didn't want to tell the other party about it. Dreaming of seeing her roommate secretly looking at his information like a foraging mouse in the future, and she had a chance encounter with his real person on a certain street, Melanie felt a faint sense of superiority. and satisfaction.

...

Eric looked at the sign beside the road and realized that the Soldier Factory Melanie just mentioned was probably the residential area east of Harvard Business School.

All the way to the campus of Harvard Business School, looking at the surrounding school buildings shaded by green trees, Eric wandered aimlessly for a while, walked to a bench at the intersection of a teaching building and sat down, casually looking through his sunglasses. The students who looked at them in twos and threes were also looked at from time to time by some curious eyes.

Any mysterious place that you have admired for a long time, in fact, once you are there. There is no mystery whatsoever.

Unexpectedly, Eric sat for a while and felt a little hungry. He was about to find a restaurant to eat when he heard the voices of a man and a woman coming out of the side entrance.

"Caroline, I got a movie ticket for Universal's The Mummy. Let's watch it tonight, starring Nicole Kidman."

"Thank you for the invitation, Howard, but I'm sorry. I don't like Nicole Kidman," a female voice with a distinctly British accent politely replied, refusing, but still slightly coquettish. .

Eric heard the name Caroline and the girl's standard English aristocratic tone. Unexpectedly, he turned his head and looked at the petite figure walking side by side with another tall young man from the side road. Suddenly, he didn't know whether to say hello or not. When he felt Caroline's deep affection for him, Eric didn't want this innocent girl like an elf to be hurt, and he didn't want her to be exposed to the noisy and impetuous Vanity Fair of Hollywood, so he cruelly drove the girl back to her. On the track of the original life.

Unexpectedly, less than a year later. The two meet here again.

Caroline Wilson felt that the young man with sunglasses sitting on the bench suddenly turned his head to look at herself, looked over subconsciously, and then seemed to be frozen by someone in an instant, and stayed for three or four seconds until Ai Ai. Rick took the initiative to stand up, and Caroline blinked her beautiful big eyes in disbelief. Although Eric's image at this time was very different from what he remembered, and he was still wearing sunglasses, Caroline still saw it at a glance. Recognized Eric.

"Eric, you, you...why are you here?" Caroline stammered a little, her little body stepped forward as if attracted by some kind of magnetism, but she regained consciousness, a little reserved He stopped, but still bravely stared at Eric with his little face raised, as if he was afraid that Eric would disappear in the blink of an eye.

Eric thought that Caroline would not recognize him easily, and planned to pass by pretending to be a passerby. Unexpectedly, the girl stayed there at the first sight of her, knowing that it was impossible to escape, she took the initiative to get up. . Seeing the girl looking at him with the unfazed emotion in his eyes, Eric sighed slightly, but took the initiative to spread his arms and smiled: "Long time no see, don't you give me a hug?"

Lost in some powerful magnetic field again in an instant, Caroline felt herself walking forward in a daze, feeling those strong arms wrapping around her and patting her on the back, she just mustered up the courage Wanting to hug Eric, Eric has already let go of her and asked, "Why are you here?"

Although she was a little disappointed, Caroline replied, "I'm studying here."

"Here, business school?" Eric was a little surprised at first, and then he couldn't help laughing, although Eric knew that Caroline had all the qualities needed by a scholar during his time together in Europe. But this is Harvard Business School, and it's hard for Eric to imagine what it's like to be a simple and shy little guy like Caroline mixed in with a group of ambitious guys trying to become business elites.

Seeing the girl who had been chasing him for a long time but couldn't even hold her hand so easily threw his arms to another man, the tall young man who was directly ignored was already extremely depressed. Hearing Eric say this, the young man named Howard finally felt that he had found an opportunity to interject, and stepped forward and said, "Sir. Why can't Caroline go to business school? Are you discriminating?"

Eric hadn't answered yet, but Caroline, who was blushing at Eric's slightly teasing laughter, immediately retorted for Eric: "Howard, how can you say that. Eric is just in joke."

Since his rebirth, Eric's most disgusting thing is that people often put the hat of discrimination on others' heads, especially in Hollywood, out of scruples in terms of racial discrimination, the glass-hearted black film star group has now basically got only acting. 'Special treatment' for good people. And whether the video actually needs it or not. All mainstream films must have large numbers of black actors, leading audiences in other countries to have the illusion that blacks make up 50 percent of the U.S. population, not just 10 percent.

However, in such a society, many things are destined to be endured. And Eric usually chooses to ignore this kind of provocation completely.

Hearing Caroline defending himself, Eric showed a faint smile, completely ignoring the young man next to him, and said, "I'm discriminating against you. I really want to see what you are doing in the business school class."

Caroline glared at him shyly, but the corner of her mouth was slightly raised, and said, "Eric, you are still so bad."

Eric almost couldn't help but stretched out his hand and pinched the charming face, and said, "Since you've encountered it, take me around, I don't know where to go."

Caroline was a little excited when she thought of how the two of them got along in Europe before: "Okay."

Eric pointed to a building not far away: "Then let's go, take me to the library first."

Eric chose to ignore the young man named Howard, but Caroline's upbringing did not allow her to do so. Seeing that Eric was about to leave, the girl pulled Eric's sleeve, gestured to the young man beside him, and said softly, "Eric. You can't be so rude."

Hearing Caroline's words, the slightly blue-faced young man who was made by Eric's ignoring attitude seemed to fill a bottle of energy potion in an instant. He felt that this was the time for him to show his gentleman's demeanor in front of Caroline, and his attitude was modest. He reached out to Eric: "Hello, I'm Howard Heinz."

Although the young man tried his best to make his tone appear more humble, when he revealed his surname. Still unconsciously with obvious arrogance.

Since the other party deliberately accentuated the pronunciation of 'Heinz', it is of course impossible for Eric to guess the other party's background, a member of the Heinz family who controls the Heinz Group, the world's largest food company.

Eric never meant anything to accommodate people he didn't like. Moreover, in this world, there are really few guys who want to find some sense of superiority from themselves, and this one is even more unlikely to be one of them. Since the other party hadn't recognized him yet, Eric certainly didn't mind introducing himself, took off the sunglasses he had been wearing, Eric reached out and shook the other party: "Hello, I'm Eric Williams. "

...

Walking side by side with Eric on the boulevard, Caroline recalled the funny appearance of Howard Heinz who almost fell on the spot after hearing Eric's self-introduction. Finally, she still failed to maintain her ladylike attitude and suddenly smiled softly. When she got up and saw Eric staring at her, Caroline said with a blushing face: "Eric, Howard has always been the proudest person in our class. You must have hurt your self-esteem now."

Eric picked out the slightly sagging sunglasses, continued walking forward, and said, "Since he regards his family identity as the source of his self-esteem, of course he must have the awareness that someone more powerful than his family will be hurt. "

Caroline followed Eric step by step, looked up at Eric with a small face, and said with a little admiration in her tone, "There are not many people as powerful as you."

Eric asked: "Didn't you say that Harvard Business School has a lot of rich kids?"

"There are some, but not that many. Just like half of our class is on loan to study MBA, and they all work hard."

Eric remembered it again and asked, "Then what's the matter with you, shouldn't you be in Cambridge?"

"Rachel said, if I don't do something I don't dare to do, I'll have to live like other noble ladies forever, so I came to Harvard to study for an MBA," Caroline looked at her. But he floated around, not daring to look at Eric.

Of course, Eric knew that this girl came to the United States, mostly because of himself. Although he didn't know much about the Wilson family, Eric could still imagine that Caroline could win the opportunity to study at Harvard, and she must have had a lot of disputes with her elders.

Looking at the girl's guilty conscience, Eric didn't want her to be too embarrassed, so he changed the subject and said, "Harvard Business School should be difficult to get into, I heard that the admission rate is only 11%, and you should have missed the opportunity to apply last year. already?"

"My father and the dean of the business school are good friends, and our family has always made donations here, and my father personally came forward to clear it up."

"Oh..." Eric deliberately showed a stunned look, and teased: "So you are a related household."

Caroline immediately raised her face and retorted solemnly: "No, I passed the entrance test."

"Well, the related households who passed the entrance test."

Caroline glared at Eric angrily: "You... Hmph, I didn't realize that you were so bad until I arrived in the United States."

Eric smiled and said, "What's wrong, tell me, so I can change my mind."

Caroline opened her mouth and stopped talking for a moment. She seemed to think that if she saw Eric's lace news in the newspaper, it would be very unladylike. She hesitated for a while before finally saying. : "You were very bad when you just deliberately played tricks on Howard."

The two walked into the library together for a while. Eric didn't really like the cool-toned arrangement of the Harvard Library. We walked into a small restaurant inside the campus together.

Eric randomly ordered a beef burger and asked Caroline who was sitting opposite: "Didn't you say that business school students have countless homework to do every day, and study for fourteen hours a day? Why do you seem to be Very relaxed?"

"It was really busy at the beginning," Caroline nodded. "But our courses are almost over. There won't be many courses next year. Many people are already looking for internship companies."

Thinking of the upcoming summer vacation, Eric realized that it was already time for students to have their summer vacation in the United States in May, and today is May 18th.

After leaving school for too long, Eric has no idea about these things. Hearing Caroline's last sentence, Eric said to Caroline jokingly: "You must also find a company for an internship, right? , why don't you come and be my assistant, my original assistant just left."

After saying this sentence without much thought, Eric immediately regretted it. Seeing the girl's eyes lit up instantly, Eric really wanted to slap himself on the spot, make a sin, say something bad. (To be continued.)
