Chapter 4: The Most Common Protagonist Privileges
0
“Ha ha, I didn’t expect that Adrien was young and would lose his manners when he saw a beautiful woman.” The director saw that Ade was stuck in the same place and didn’t move, so he quickly made a joke. “The charm of Lady C.C. is really great, and only the beauty of Queen Diana can match that of you. Is it, Adrien?” He patted Ade on the shoulder, trying to wake him up.
0
“Ah, yes, you’re so beautiful. I’m so stunned by you. Don’t laugh at me.” Ade gives the director a grateful look and tries to restrain himself. Fortunately, C.C. is really beautiful and can use this excuse to deal with it. Now is not the time to worry about why C.C. is here. What he should do now is to try his best to be an ordinary scientific researcher and make C.C. lose interest in himself quickly.
0
“Thank you.” C. C. smiles faintly and looks at Ade with a playful look in her eyes. “This is Dr. Lingus, the father of Gundam? I’ve heard so much about you that you’re really talented. “
0
“I’m just an ordinary researcher.” Ade responded modestly while trying to recall information about C.C. Since the court shooting was a few years ago, the current C.C. should be the holder of code instead of Geass, so it’s safe to make eye contact with her. “I just did a little bit of work.”
0
Ade tries to get back to the normal rhythm.
0
“Sit down and talk, Ms. C.C., please.” When the director saw that Ade was back to normal, he was relieved. Although he doesn’t know what the situation is, he has decided to teach him a lesson later. When he was interviewed to see Queen Diana, he didn’t show his shyness. Why did he make a fool of himself today?
0
“Dr. Lingus is too modest. You have brought great benefits to the company. As a shareholder, I know it best.” C. C. returned to the top of the table, still staring at Ade, “Dr. Lingus, have we met before? I always feel very kind. I seldom come to the moon. Does Dr. Lingus travel a lot?”
0
“How can it be? Today is my first time to see Ms. C.C. I’ve been living on the moon all the time, and I’ve never been to the earth…” No good! Ade suddenly realized that C.C. had never said that she came from the earth! The first reaction of a normal person should be to mistakenly recognize her as a coordinator! Ade mobilized all his brain cells, thinking about all possible remedies in a few seconds.
0
“- and never been to plant. Otherwise, if I have seen such a beauty as Ms. C.C., I will never forget it. ” This should be no problem, right? Ade smiles embarrassed and looks at C.C. as if nothing had happened. This kind of time, eyes must not be erratic.
0
“The doctor must have the best memory. If you say that, I should have misunderstood you.” C. C. looking at the director with a smile. Her expression suddenly became rich. “Sir, is Dr. Lingus busy today? If conditions permit, I’d like to invite the doctor to lunch.”
0
Sure enough, did you still notice me? Ade felt more tired than working all night. This woman directly asks the director, he doesn’t even have the right to refuse.
0
“Of course, no problem. Adrien’s work is coming to an end, he has sufficient free time!” Of course, the director can see that C.C. is very interested in Ade for some reason. After Ade enters the house, her performance is completely different from before. The director doesn’t matter what the reason is. He’s going to retire. It’s good to make a good relationship with shareholders at this time. Besides, it’s just an opportunity for young people like Adrien to meet big people, right? “Adrien. Why don’t you go to dinner with Ms. C.C. now? It’s going to take some time. Ms. C. C. what do you like? I know the restaurants around here like the back of my hand!”
0
“Thank you, director. I’ve just picked up a restaurant I’ve always wanted to go to.” C. C. looking at Ade, the corner of her mouth slightly tilted up, “Dr. Lingus, please.”
0
Along the way, Ade didn’t take the initiative to talk to C.C. . He insisted on the creed of saying more and making more mistakes. He just waited for C.C. to ask and answer whatever she asked. Coincidentally, C.C. seems to have lost interest in Ade and didn’t take the initiative to chat with him. Just like lovers giving each other the silent treatment, they come all the way to a high-end restaurant that Ade has never been to. To Ade’s surprise, the restaurant staff knew him, which made him aware that he was a public figure on the moon.

Luxury decoration and playing Chopin’s ballads show the style of the restaurant. There are not many guests at noon on weekdays, and the sparse seat distribution makes the atmosphere very cold. How expensive can the dish be? Ade thought, but fortunately, the company paid for it.
0
The two seem to be sitting in one of the best seats in the restaurant, with the floor to ceiling windows showing most of the city. The nearest other guests are also far away from them, even the normal chat will not disturb others. Until the waiter finished serving, no one spoke first.
0
Until C.C. broke the silence, “Then I’ll call you Adrien.”
0
“I don’t mind if you insist, Ms. C.C., although we are not so familiar.” Ade decisively changed into just a harmless defensive smile, “But Ms. C.C., I’m a little embarrassed.”
0
“Just call me C.C. and there’s no need for honorifics.” C. C. still keeps the expression of finding prey, “Then I’ll go straight in, Adrien, you know me.”
0
“You’re joking. Didn’t I say that today is the first time I’ve meet you –“
0
“You are indeed the first to see me today. You did not lie, but what I said is, YOU, RECOGNIZE, ME.”
0
“Ha ha, how could it…” Some things are beyond his expectation. Shouldn’t we try each other out first? Ade uses his brain very quickly, trying to find a way to break the deadlock. This kind of thing is really not what he is good at. It’s not only exhausting but also meaningless.
0
“After living for so many years, although I don’t have any other talents, I’ve only met more people.” C. C. doesn’t plan to give Ade time to think, “It’s the look in the eyes of people who suddenly see someone he knows in an unexpected place. Am I right, Adrien? Can you tell me why you don’t want to see me so much?”
0
“I really didn’t –“
0
“Don’t you think it’s a waste of time and meaningless behavior for scientific researchers like you to explore each other, find loopholes in each other’s words, and attack each other a little bit? You know that I’m C.C., that I’m from the earth, and we all know that. I think we can go straight to the next step. So back to the question, why don’t you want to see me so much?” C. C. staring at Ade’s eyes, pressing step by step, “Does your resistance attitude mean that you know more?”
0
It’s meaningless to pretend to be a clown in front of people who understand you. Looking back at C.C., it seems that people will become foxy after living for a long time. It is impossible for them to be pure girls forever. “I just want to stay out of trouble.” Ade simply admitted it.
