Chapter 241 Stop yelling at him!

But this time it's not about being unhappy.

It's more like a sense of helplessness.

He missed too many details as a father.

But Li Chen remembered it.

Yan Zhen suddenly asked, "Do you know what she doesn't eat?"

Li Chen's heart tightened.

This question is like an exam.

Yan Xi glanced at him, clearly not intending to help.

Li Chen thought for a moment.

I don't eat scallions, garlic, or cilantro unless I feel like it. I'll pick out ginger if I can. I don't like things that are too sweet. I eat iced food depending on my stomach. I only eat pumpkin that's steamed until it's soft and tender. I don't eat undercooked pieces.

"Fish is fine, but I get impatient with all the bones. Shrimp is okay, I can eat it quickly once it's peeled. I prefer eggs soft-boiled, I'll stop eating if they're overcooked."

Yan Zhen's expression changed halfway through the conversation.

Yan Xi held her teacup, her ears slightly red.

Li Chen stopped in time.

If we continue, Yan Zhen might really be heartbroken.

Yan Zhen looked at Yan Xi. "Is he right?"

Yan Xi lowered her head and drank her tea.

"almost."

Yan Zhen fell silent.

Li Chen knew that the silence wasn't directed at him.

It is Yan Zhen who is getting to know Yan Xi in a new light.

She wasn't that little girl whose diet and lifestyle were entirely dictated by her family when she was young.

Instead, it's someone who already has new habits, a new life, and someone who will remember these habits for her.

After a while, Yan Zhen suddenly asked, "Does your mother know about this?"

Yan Xi: "I know part of it."

Yan Zhen's expression softened a little.

At least Luo Yun knew.

Yan Xi looked at him. "You can know that too."

Yan Zhen looked up.

Yan Xi took out her phone and tapped a few times.

Li Chen's phone vibrated.

He looked down and saw it was a memo sharing invitation from Yan Xi.

The title is simple.

【diet】

Li Chen was stunned.

Yan Zhen's phone also lit up.

Yan Zhen stared at the screen, remaining motionless for a long time.

Yan Xi said, "I've edited one version, and Li Chen has supplemented it. You can take a look if you want."

Yan Zhen stared at his phone.

He didn't open it immediately.

Li Chen noticed that his finger lingered at the edge of the screen for a long time.

Finally, Yan Zhen clicked "accept".

Yan Xi lowered her head and continued eating.

It was as if nothing had happened.

Li Chen knew very well what was going on.

This is not a diet memo.

This is the entrance that Yan Xi left for Yan Zhen.

She allowed him to get to know her again.

Yan Zhen read a few lines and suddenly frowned.

"Does the pumpkin need to be steamed until it can be easily crushed with chopsticks?"

Li Chen nodded. "Yes."

Yan Zhen looked up. "You wrote this?"

"Um."

"Middle section of pork ribs?"

"Um."

Yan Zhen looked at him, his expression hard to describe.

Li Chen felt it was best not to speak at this moment.

Yan Zhen slid down again.

"Should I drink less iced Americano?"

Yan Xi: "Written by Li Chen."

Yan Zhen: "Are you still drinking?"

Yan Xi: "Too little."

Yan Zhen looked at Li Chen.

Li Chen said, "It is indeed less."

Yan Zhen then stopped.

But Li Chen had already realized that he really wanted to continue managing things.

I just said "I won't add the rest," but now I'm holding back.

Yan Xi noticed it too.

She put down her chopsticks. "You could have reminded me."

Yan Zhen looked up.

"But don't scold them," Yan Xi said.

Yan Zhen said in a deep voice, "I know."

Li Chen lowered his head and drank his tea.

The purpose of this meal has far exceeded his original expectations.

Yan Zhen contacted him, originally just to inquire about Yan Xi's recent situation.

As a result, after Yan Xi came up, the father and daughter broke up an old way of communicating.

There was no loud crying, no sentimentality.

But it's more substantial than those.

After the meal, Yan Zhen had the dishes removed.

A fresh pot of tea was served.

Yan Xi sat next to Li Chen, looking down at the third version of his project.

Yan Zhen stared at it for a while, then suddenly asked, "Is this your project?"

Li Chen handed over the printed manuscript.

"Still under revision."

Yan Zhen took it and turned two pages.

He couldn't understand the specific algorithm, but he could understand the structure.

"The summary is too student-like."

Li Chen: "Xi Xi said the same thing."

Yan Xi didn't even look up. "I said something even harsher."

Yan Zhen looked at her. "Don't always be so mean to him."

Yan Xi looked up.

Li Chen was also stunned.

After Yan Zhen finished speaking, he seemed to feel a little awkward and coughed.

"Teach them if they need to, correct them if they need to, don't teach them until they're stupid."

Yan Xi slowly looked at Li Chen.

Li Chen immediately lowered his head and drank his tea.

You can't accept that.

Accepting it will cause trouble.

Yan Xi said calmly, "He has a good ability to withstand pressure."

Yan Zhen: "But we can't suppress it every day."

Li Chen couldn't suppress the urge to smile.

Yan Xi saw it.

"Is it funny?"

Li Chen put down his teacup. "No."

Yan Zhen put the printed manuscript back. "Why is the 'Supervisor' section empty?"

Yan Xi closed the file.

"I found someone."

Li Chen immediately looked at her.

She was interrupted by a message from Yan Zhen when she got to this point yesterday.

Yan Zhen also looked at her.

Yan Xi's tone was flat. "There's a professor in the Computer Science department whose research focuses on interpretable models and application systems. He has a lot of project experience, but he doesn't usually accept first-year students."

Li Chen did not ask for his name.

Because we cannot add new ones.

He only focuses on the key points.

"We don't really accept first-year students."

Yan Xi nodded. "So we need to bring something to talk to them."

Yan Zhen looked at Li Chen. "Do you have something?"

Li Chen did not rush to answer.

He glanced down at his manuscript.

The third edition is much better than the first edition.

But not enough.

He is very clear.

Yan Xi can help him find directions, help him revise his expressions, and even help him judge who is suitable.

But what he actually uses to knock on doors must be his own.

Li Chen looked up. "That's not enough."

Yan Zhen stared at him.

Li Chen continued, "We'll continue revising it tonight, and make a working prototype tomorrow."

Yan Xi's eyes flickered.

Yan Zhen asked, "Can you actually do it?"

"I can do it," Li Chen said.

This time he spoke very steadily.

It's not that I'm being stubborn.

He had already dismantled the framework in his mind.

Chen Mo was responsible for data organization, while he was responsible for the model and implementation.

First, create the smallest version; don't strive for completeness. Focus on getting the "early reminders" and "explainability" features working.

Yan Xi looked at him. "We can't stay up too late tonight."

Li Chen: "Go to sleep before midnight."

Yan Xi: "11:30."

Li Chen: "12 o'clock."

Yan Xi didn't say anything.

Li Chen immediately changed his answer. "11:30."

Yan Zhen looked at the two of them with a subtle expression.

"You're quite obedient."

Li Chen was quite frank. "She's right to manage things."

Yan Zhen snorted, but this time he didn't argue.

He finished his tea and picked up his coat.

"Alright."

Yan Xi looked at him. "Are you leaving?"

"I'm not leaving. Do you think I'm going to watch you two grade your homework?"

Yan Xi put away the documents.

Li Chen also stood up.

Yan Zhen walked to the door, then suddenly stopped and looked back at Li Chen.

Send me a sample tomorrow too.

Li Chen was taken aback.

"Do you want to see it?"

Yan Zhen's tone was calm. "I don't understand the technology, but I can tell if a person is serious."

Li Chen nodded. "Okay."

Yan Zhen then looked at Yan Xi, his voice stiff.

"Don't go home too late."

Yan Xi: "I know."

Yan Zhen opened the door.

Before leaving, he seemed to remember something and turned back to add another sentence.

"Next time we eat, let your mom join us."

Yan Xi looked up.

Yan Zhen has already left.

Li Chen looked at the doorway and smiled after two seconds.

Yan Xi stuffed the documents into his arms.

"What are you laughing at?"

"It's nothing," Li Chen said. "I just thought your dad was quite cute today."

Yan Xi looked at him.

Li Chen immediately changed his tune. "Quite dignified."

Yan Xi said coldly, "It's too late."

She picked up her phone.

Li Chen looked down and saw that Yan Xi had already created a new entry in the memo.

[Li Chen's assessment of Yan Zhen: Cute.]

Li Chen felt a chill run down his spine.

"This cannot be remembered."

Yan Xi walked out. "We'll see how they perform."

Li Chen followed. "What was his performance like?"

Yan Xi pushed open the stairwell door, her voice very soft.

Send me the sample framework before 11:30 tonight.
