C113 (1/2)
When he received a call from Tang Banyeng, he hurriedly dried his hair and ran downstairs. Tang Bainfeng was already waiting downstairs.
It had been so many days since they last saw each other, but now that they met, it was obvious that she felt a bit uncomfortable facing Tang Banyan.
”Get on the car, Professor Chen is already waiting at school!”
Tang Banyeng naturally opened the door of the passenger seat and watched as Nikki entered. Then, he went around the front of the car and sat in the driver's seat.
On the way to school, Tang Banyeng didn't say anything. The more silent he was, the more he was apprehensive. She had never seen such a cold Tang Bainian before, so she didn't know how to deal with him.
”Boss Tang, actually … ”Actually, you can just tell me the time and place. I can go to Professor Chen's place by myself.”
”Boss Tang?” Hearing such an estranged manner of address, Tang Bainfeng's eyebrows shot up. Taking advantage of the traffic light, he turned his head to look at Nikki, but didn't say anything.
Warmth felt a little flustered by Tang Banyan's gaze. It was as if he had done something wrong, but she hadn't done anything wrong?
She swallowed her saliva, calming herself down a bit. Then, she lifted her head and looked back at Tang Banyan.
”Boss Tang, I think it's better if we're in the public domain. In the company or when we're discussing business matters, it's more appropriate for me to call you Boss Tang!”
”Privacy?!” Tang Banyan looked at him. Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly turned his head and looked in front of him. He released the brakes, allowing the car to slowly slide forward.
”Call me whatever you want. I can't change your mind, can I?”
After a long while, Tang Bainfeng finally spoke.
However, when Su Wen's warm words entered her ears, it caused her heart to feel heavy, as if something was pressing down on her heart, causing her to be unable to catch her breath.
After that, the carriage became terrifyingly quiet. Nikki wanted to break the silence to make the atmosphere less gloomy, but when the words reached her mouth, she swallowed them back. She felt that this current atmosphere was not suitable for her to say anything.
The two of them arrived at the school in silence. When they got to the office, Chen Xue was already waiting there.
Seeing that it was them who had knocked on the door, she hurriedly stood up and greeted them with a smile.
”You're finally here, come in and sit!”
After letting them into the room, Chen Xue walked to the water table in the office and said, ”I'm old, there's only black tea in the office. You young people might not like to drink this, but I'll get someone to buy some drinks for you young people and put them in the office.”
Seeing that Chen Xue was personally making tea for him, Su Wen hurriedly stood up and took the teacup that Chen Xue handed to him with both hands.
At the beginning, she didn't think that Chen Xue was pouring tea for them; she thought that Chen Xue was making tea for her, and she didn't know the tea habits of Chen Xue, so she didn't go over to help. If she knew that this was made for them, she wouldn't have let Chen Xue do it in the first place.
Where in the world would you get a master to make tea for his disciple?
”Master, please take a seat. I will do it myself. You are being too polite, even I am embarrassed!”
”What's there to be embarrassed about? The person who came was a guest!”
Chen Xue smiled as she looked at him. Although she hadn't taught him, she couldn't help but feel satisfied with a child who could write such a work as < Decomposition >.
After she had personally brewed two cups of tea, Chen Xue took out a document from the table and handed it to him.
”This is your schedule for the next two months. You can just follow the time and go to class directly. I've already said hello to these teachers for you!”
Chen Xue pointed at the time periods marked on the course table, ”These are the times when the graduate students and doctoral students held their seminars. If there's no urgent matter, it's best to attend all of them. Such a seminar might sound a bit incomprehensible at first, but if you listen to it, you will find that you can learn a lot from it.”
Nikki looked at the timetable. It was usually in the morning and there were occasional afternoon discussions. At this time, she just needed to call a taxi and didn't have to worry about whether it would be safe to go home too late.
”Oh right, I have something I need to tell you in advance. The duration of this discussion is one month, this is the month's time, and the timetable for next month's meeting will be decided by everyone during the last discussion. After all, some of the students themselves have work to do outside, so we should accommodate each other for a while.”
