Chapter 436: Inquiring about the letter from the research guru
Bai Zhi's words made Lu Ya feel even more ashamed.
It has to be said that her cousin-in-law understood her situation and temperament very well.
There are some jobs that she is indeed unable to do.
Isn't the nanny just like Zhang Ma in their family?
How could she possibly work as a nanny?
She would rather starve to death than work as a restaurant waitress.
"Lu Ya, what's wrong with you? Why are you giving up your comfortable life as a pampered young lady to come out and experience life?"
Shen Qian looked at Lu Ya with suspicion and curiosity, asking with a half-smile,
Lu Ya was even more embarrassed. If it were any other time, when her temper flared up, she would definitely retort with "None of your business."
But now, in such a sorry state, she no longer has the leverage to argue with others.
When Shen Qian saw Lu Ya, she felt that there was no light in her eyes.
She used to exude an air of arrogance, like a spoiled young lady.
The girl in front of me looked like a wilted eggplant.
He was submissive and obsequious in front of Bai Zhi.
Shen Qian asked her, "I heard you're dating someone. Where is he?"
Lu Ya, “........”
We broke up.
Upon hearing this, Shen Qian's tone was full of agreement, "Good thing you broke up. You're still young, so you must keep your eyes open when looking for a partner, and don't get deceived."
I heard before that Lu Ya was dating a jerk.
Although she had never met him, judging from Xie Zheng's complaints, he probably wasn't a good person.
Thinking of this, Shen Qian's eyes dimmed slightly.
What right does she have to lecture others?
She had been drinking and had been outside in the wind, so when she came back inside, her face felt hot.
"I'm going to wash my face."
After Shen Qian left, Bai Zhi looked at Lu Ya, rubbing her forehead in exasperation, "You can't keep living here forever, can you? What are your plans for tomorrow?"
"I don't know." Lu Ya shook her head in confusion.
She didn't know where to go or what to do.
She considered renting a place to live.
But she only had so much money. If she rented a place, she wouldn't have any money for living expenses.
Moreover, renting a house means being completely cut off from family.
She insisted on staying with Bai Zhi, hoping that at least through her, her family could keep track of her whereabouts.
Bai Zhi's eyes flickered slightly as she looked at her and suggested, "How about we try our luck again tomorrow and see if we can find a job?"
How can she learn her lesson from just one day of setback?
They need to be toughened up by society more often.
Bai Zhi didn't mention taking her home at all.
Lu Ya looked troubled.
Why not try your luck?
It's more like hitting a wall.
Without connections, she would never have been able to get into those organizations on her own.
At this point, she could only bite the bullet and reply, "Then I'll go look for it again."
After Lu Ya finished speaking, she lowered her head, left the room, and went to the guest room.
After Shen Qian came out of the bathroom, Bai Zhi said, "Why don't you sleep with Lu Ya?"
"Why?" Shen Qian asked, her face showing resistance. "Can't I sleep with you?"
Although she and Lu Ya had known each other for a long time, they were not close.
Besides, she came along to have a heart-to-heart talk with Bai Zhi, so what kind of talk is it to sleep with Lu Ya?
However, Bai Zhi firmly refused, "No, this is my and Lu Ye's wedding bed, and no one else can sleep in it."
Shen Qian was no naive young girl, and she felt embarrassed by Bai Zhi's words.
It is indeed inappropriate to sleep in someone else's wedding bed.
She had to give up the idea of sleeping with Bai Zhi.
But she really didn't want to sleep with Lu Ya.
She glanced at her watch and said, "It's still early, let's chat for a while before we go to sleep."
They chatted until midnight, and she ate something on the sofa until dawn.
Shen Qian even considered going outside to buy some more wine so she could have a couple more drinks with Bai Zhi.
But Bai Zhi kept urging her to drink tea, and she knew that drinking alcohol was out of the question.
"What do you want to talk about?"
Bai Zhi brewed some tea and handed it to her, saying, "Let her sober up first."
Shen Qian wanted to say that she wasn't drunk, but she still took the teacup and took a sip.
She said, "We were just chatting, and now we have to part ways. Aren't you sad?"
Shen Qian glanced at Bai Zhi with a resentful look in her eyes, her tone dissatisfied.
This renowned traditional Chinese medicine doctor, who was a few years younger than me, always maintained a detached expression, regardless of the time or the person he was dealing with.
It was easy to see large emotional fluctuations on her face.
At first, she always felt that Bai Zhi was pretending to be mature and calm.
But after spending several months together, she discovered that her composure and indifference were not feigned.
She possesses a refined, tranquil, and serene temperament.
This is a manifestation of having a strong spiritual core.
"What's there to be sad about?" Bai Zhi laughed. "It's not like we'll never see each other again."
If she really opened a traditional Chinese medicine clinic near the military base, she and Shen Qian would probably see each other frequently.
So what does she have to be sad about?
That's just how the world is; many people come and go in our lives, all just passing through.
"Xiaozhi, what are your plans for the future? You mentioned opening a traditional Chinese medicine clinic before, is that on the agenda yet?"
Shen Qian looked at Bai Zhi with a serious expression and asked.
Bai Zhi didn't want to bring up things with people she didn't know beforehand. She replied, "Let's talk about this after the New Year. I just finished work, so I'm going to go see my husband Lu Ye and have some alone time first."
"Why do you keep asking this?" Bai Zhi glanced at her while sipping her tea and laughed, "You have a secure job as a military doctor, you wouldn't be thinking of quitting and working for me, would you?"
Shen Qian smiled and said, "Resigning is out of the question."
"I just thought that if you can continue to cooperate with the hospital in the future, please take me with you. I really want to learn something from you."
At this point, Shen Qian gave her a sincere thumbs up, "You really have something."
"Let's work together again in the future."
Bai Zhi smiled and said, "Trust me, when I become successful in the future, I will suggest to your leaders that you come to our clinic for further training."
Go to the clinic... for further training?
Putting these two words together just looks weird.
But Shen Qian didn't think she was bragging. She believed that as long as Bai Zhi was willing, it wouldn't be long before her words became a reality.
She laughed, "Then I'll wait."
"By the way, I have something to ask you."
Bai Zhi's eyes flickered slightly, and she casually asked, "Is Deputy Director Chen your childhood friend Chen Lin's uncle?"
Shen Qian nodded upon hearing this, "Yes, he is Uncle Chen Lin."
"Overhearing the conversation between Deputy Director Chen and Vice President Li during dinner tonight, I realized that the Chen family has produced many talented individuals."
Bai Zhi casually inquired, "Besides Chen Lin, are there any others doing scientific research?"
Shen Qian replied, "They're probably talking about Chen Lin's great-aunt, right? I remember her being very powerful."
Bai Zhi casually guessed, "Really? Did Chen Lin take his great-aunt as a role model, which is why he chose the path of scientific research?"
"There must be some impact in that regard."
Bai Zhi looked on with admiration and gave a thumbs up, "That's amazing! His great-aunt is the role model for us women."
"By the way, do you know what Chen Lin's great-aunt's name is?"
Meeting Bai Zhi's curious gaze, Shen Qian asked, puzzled, "Why are you asking this?"
Bai Zhi shrugged, looking relaxed and casual. "I'm just curious. It was so difficult for women to do scientific research in their time."
“I don’t know her name,” Shen Qian explained. “Although we’re good friends with Chen Lin, I’ve never actually met his great-aunt. I’ve only heard him mention her before. After all, she’s an elder, so we wouldn’t ask her name.”
