The second semester of the sophomore year is the busiest time for all Peking University students. Jian Yunxi's plan is to publish a paper, participate in the Jessup moot court competition, and pass the legal English exam.
At the beginning of the school year, Jian Yunxi not only had to attend the "International Law Salon" training every week, but also had to find time to volunteer at the Legal Aid Association.
The key point is that her paper has been rejected many times, and Professor Li Ming's comment is: the framework of the paper is fine, but the depth is not enough.
The conclusion is too thin.
The literature review section seems to be pieced together.
Jian Yunxi felt that many of her brain cells had died. Between collapse and self-healing, she chose to use three days to quickly revise her thesis.
On the first day, I revised each sentence according to Professor Li Ming's comments.
The next day, I violently filled in the content of the paper, such as searching the Internet for the judgment of the "South China Sea Arbitration Case" and extracting the judges' dissenting opinions.
On the third day, I tried hard to use academic jargon in the language of my paper, and finally stuffed two related papers published by Professor Li Ming in 2007 into the reference section.
The last point is some tips provided by seniors after Jessup’s team mock debate.
Jian Yunxi really benefited a lot from it. It is true that three cobblers are better than one Zhuge Liang.
When the manuscript was finally submitted, Professor Li Ming was finally satisfied. He wrote on the paper with a red pen: Change all "the author believes" to "this article advocates", there must be more than or equal to three ICJ cases, and at the end must add "enlightenment for China".
At this point, Jian Yunxi's paper was finally passed and was waiting to be published.
And the Jessup race is imminent.
Jian Yunxi was so nervous that she couldn't sleep the whole night. She felt like she was about to become anxious.
Guo Xinyue saw her expression and said, "If someone didn't know, they would think that some demon had sucked your energy out of you. Your eye bags are almost falling to your chin."
Although the words were exaggerated, Jian Yunxi was still shocked after looking in the mirror.
Dark circles, eye bags, lifeless eyes, brain shutdown, the look of a typical insomniac.
Following Sun Qimiao's suggestion, Jian Yunxi went to the school clinic to get a prescription for melatonin, hoping to get a good night's sleep.
As a result, when he came back, he met Lu Yang downstairs of the dormitory building. "Lu Yang!" Jian Yunxi suddenly became energetic and jumped on Lu Yang regardless of anything.
"Slow down, I can't run." Lu Yang caught Jian Yunxi and held her for another round.
"What do you have in your hand? Let me see."
After reading it, Lu Yang sighed, "I was wondering if my heart has been pounding lately, thinking that you were too busy preparing for the competition. How come you need to take melatonin?"
"Look at my dark circles. I'm so nervous!"
Lu Yang held Jian Yunxi's face and said, "No way, you're still so beautiful." Then he kissed Jian Yunxi's eyes again.
"Ah, Guo Xinyue said that I felt like I was drained of my energy, and I also feel that I am so haggard now, how can you still kiss me!"
To be honest, Jian Yunxi's current condition is not very good, and his face is abnormally pale: "Come on, I'll take you to make up for it."
The place where Lu Yang took Jian Yunxi was a herbal medicine shop that had just opened nearby this year. The main product was a variety of herbal medicines, which were very suitable for college students who stayed up late to finish their papers.
As soon as he entered the door, a strong smell of traditional Chinese medicine hit him in the face, and Jian Yunxi frowned unconsciously.
Finally, I ordered the stewed chicken with red dates recommended by the waiter, saying that it can not only replenish qi and blood, but also relieve fatigue. I also ordered a portion of Poria cocos and lily porridge and stir-fried wolfberry seedlings.
Jian Yunxi hadn't sat down to have a comfortable meal for a long time. The flavor of the red dates was perfectly integrated into the soup, and the chicken was stewed until it was soft and delicious.
"Wow, it tastes delicious. I feel like I'm alive again!"
Lu Yang laughed at Jian Yunxi's satisfied look: "I knew you haven't been eating well recently and you're not listening."
Jian Yunxi stuck out her tongue. She had been busy writing her thesis a few days ago, and recently she was busy meeting the deadline for a competition. She felt like she was typing even in her dreams.
"Okay, okay, I promise that after the game is over, I will eat three meals a day on time."
Lu Yang rubbed her hair helplessly and put a lot of food into her bowl. Seeing how she ate, he felt distressed and blamed himself.
"I should have come earlier to watch you eat."
Jian Yunxi shook his head: "I didn't have time to eat with you a few days ago. I just handed in my paper yesterday, and I was planning to continue writing my petition when I got home today."
"Hey! When your game is over, I'll take you out to relax!"
"Really?" Speaking of going out to play, Jian Yunxi suddenly became excited. She calculated that after the competition was over, she would go out to play for a while and then come back to prepare for the Legal English exam. This schedule was perfect!
Lu Yang knew that she would be happy. Jian Yunxi was very serious when studying and working, and of course she could also have fun when playing, combining work and rest.
There happened to be a chain bakery next to the herbal medicine shop, so Lu Yang went there and bought some bread for Jian Yunxi so that she could eat some when she stayed up late.
"Remember not to drink coffee. I heard from a senior that he drank coffee at night during a computer competition, and his hands were shaking the next day when he went on stage."
"Hmm!" Jian Yunxi thought that was too terrible. He couldn't make a fool of himself on the stage.
After enduring the period of working on her thesis, even when Lu Yang was in front of Jian Yunxi, she felt a surge of longing for him.
"What's wrong?"
Jian Yunxi hugged Lu Yang and refused to let go: "I just want to hug you."
Lu Yang couldn't do anything with Jian Yunxi, so he hugged her and kept kissing her on the head, ears and cheeks.
"Yunxi, if you don't let go, I'm going to kiss you."
