Chapter 49 She has waited for several years, can she be willing to give up?
"Even if someone like her can get in through her uncle's connections, she'll never be able to work at the institute. This position can only be yours."
Xu Yingluo bit her lip and said nothing.
The more she acted like this, the more distressed Jiang Chejin felt, and the more angry he became.
He stood up suddenly, with a bit of arrogance on his handsome face, and looked directly at Professor Chen.
"Professor Chen, may I ask, which Yue Qing was the one you called on the phone just now?"
Professor Chen raised his eyelids, and a sharp sneer flashed in his cloudy eyes.
He knew better than anyone how Xu Yueqing was deceived by the young master of the Jiang family.
He didn't have a good face towards this person.
"You'll know in a moment." He said indifferently.
After saying that, he didn't even bother to look at the two of them again, turned around and walked towards the door.
The air pressure in the room was frighteningly low.
Just when Jiang Chejin thought he was going to leave, Professor Chen stopped with his hand on the door handle.
He didn't turn around, but the voice came clearly.
"People in the research institute have always come in based on their strength."
"Don't look at people with tinted glasses, and don't bring those messy things from outside into here."
He paused, as if giving the two of them time to digest what he had said, and then he added the last sentence word by word in a resounding voice.
"I, Old Chen, have devoted all my energy to research throughout my life. I would never use my research to make jokes."
With a "click".
The door opened and closed again.
Professor Chen's figure completely disappeared behind the door.
The click of the door closing was like a small hammer, hitting Jiang Chejin and Xu Yingluo's hearts hard.
The huge dean's office was instantly filled with suffocating silence.
Jiang Chejin's expression could no longer be described simply as ugly.
Every word this old man said just now was directed at Jiang Chejin's nose!
When had he ever suffered such humiliation?
Xu Yingluo's face was as white as paper.
Professor Chen's words "Yue Qing" and his warning were like two invisible hands strangling her throat.
Could it be that the person Professor Chen was talking about was Xu Yueqing?
But how could that be?
Professor Huang, another person in the office who had remained silent, finally took action after seeing the stalemate.
He put on a conciliatory smile and walked quickly to Jiang Chejin.
"Mr. Jiang, don't take it personally. Old Chen's temper is just like the chemicals in the lab—violent and fierce. It's been like this for decades."
His words seemed to be an attempt to smooth things over, but they seemed more like adding fuel to the fire.
Jiang Chejin felt a surge of emotion in his heart.
Professor Li didn't notice and continued, "But don't worry, he's right. He wouldn't joke about research, no matter what. We also know Yingluo is an excellent child. We've seen her grades in school, and they're excellent. If she can't join Lao Chen's team, there are other project groups in the institute. As long as Yingluo is willing..."
"I don't want to."
Xu Yingluo's voice was soft, but it was like a nail, interrupting Professor Li's words.
She raised her head, now full of determination and unwillingness.
"Dean Li, I've been waiting for this opportunity for several years."
"I still want to try to get Professor Chen's team again."
Jiang Chejin felt heartbroken seeing her fragile yet resilient appearance.
He pulled Xu Yingluo behind him to protect her.
"Luoluo, don't worry," he stared at Professor Li, but his words were directed to Xu Yingluo, "This position originally belonged to you, no one can take it away!"
