This was her first time having such close contact with him; he was aloof and indifferent.
Everyone told her, "He isn't interested in women, so don't get too deeply involved with h...
Chapter 38 The reversal came too fast, does your face hurt?
"Professor Chen and everyone are waiting for you inside. Let's go in."
At this moment, the perfect smile on Xu Yingluo's face was like frozen low-quality glass, cracking inch by inch.
It hurts so much.
She felt like she had been slapped hard in public.
Jiang Chejin's eyebrows were twisted into the shape of a "川" character.
He took a step forward and protected the pale-faced Xu Yingluo more thoroughly behind him.
Does this assistant have eye problems?
He spoke first, his voice full of questions.
"Are you mistaken?"
Jiang Chejin raised his chin slightly towards Xu Yingluo, his tone full of well-deserved pride.
"She is Xu Yingluo, this year's winner of the British Gold Award. The Miss Xu you are looking for is her."
After listening to this, Assistant Li glanced at Xu Yingluo's extremely ugly face lightly, and then turned his gaze back to Xu Yueqing.
His tone was still respectful, but the meaning behind his words was like a sharper knife.
"Sorry, I'm looking for Miss Xu Yueqing."
Xu Yueqing finally had some different reaction.
She nodded to Assistant Li neither humbly nor arrogantly.
There was no trace of pride at this dramatic reversal on that calm face.
It's as if this is how it should be.
Just a second ago, everyone was praising Xu Yingluo as a favored daughter of heaven and the hope for the future of the institute.
The next second, the dean's assistant said in front of everyone that the person he was looking for was Xu Yueqing, the one they had been talking about who was a hangout with rich men and had no talent.
The slap on the face was so loud that it was deafening.
Xu Yingluo couldn't stand it anymore.
She couldn't just stand there like a clown, being stared at by everyone with sympathetic and anticipatory eyes.
She poked her head out from behind Jiang Chejin and tried hard to put on an innocent expression.
"Assistant Li, my sister..."
She wanted to say that my sister had never done any serious projects in college, and she might have some misunderstanding.
But Assistant Li didn't even have the patience to listen to her finish a sentence.
He turned slightly sideways and made a "please" gesture, once again completely ignoring Xu Yingluo.
All his attention was on Xu Yueqing.
"Miss Xu, let's go in first.
Xu Yueqing nodded.
"Please lead the way."
After saying that, she didn't even look at Jiang Chejin and Xu Yingluo again. She followed Assistant Li and turned to walk into the research institute.
No one knew what the two were talking about. From a distance, everyone only saw Xu Yueqing with a relaxed smile on his face, and Assistant Li nodded frequently with a respectful attitude.
Xu Yingluo was the only one left standing there, gritting her back teeth and digging her nails deep into her palms.
How could this Xu Yueqing be related to the research institute?
Hasn't Xu Yueqing been circling around Jiang Chejin for the past four years? Washing clothes and cooking for her, cleaning up his mess, living like a nanny!
She never sent out any of her plans!
How could she possibly catch Professor Chen's eye!
Jiang Chejin also froze in place, a look of confusion and annoyance on his face.
He stared at Xu Yueqing's disappearing back, and the fire in his heart started burning again.
What on earth is this woman up to?
At this moment, a suppressed sneer came from the crowd.
"Tsk tsk, what did I say? This Xu Yueqing is not simple."
"No wonder she's dressed so beautifully today. It turns out she's already hooked up with someone from the research institute. That's a really wild move."
This meaningful remark was like a stone thrown into stagnant water.
Everyone understood instantly.
The discussion suddenly exploded.
"No wonder! I was wondering why she, who had even given up on getting into graduate school, would be linked to Professor Chen!"
