Chapter 194 Paving the way for Lin Siqiao
"Master, you're looking for me?"
As soon as Lin Siqiao opened the door of Mr. Liang's office, he saw his master sitting with his eldest brother drinking tea and chatting.
"Big Brother, how come you have time to come here today?"
"Your senior brother came here to talk to you about something."
Mr. Liang asked Lin Siqiao to sit down with a smile, made her a cup of tea, and then looked at Minister Wu.
"Ah Wu, don't keep me in suspense. Xiao Qiao has to go to German class later."
"It's too late. Mr. Han will really scold me."
"Yes, Master."
Minister Wu smiled, then took out a document from his briefcase. Lin Siqiao's scalp instantly went numb when he saw it.
"Big Brother, is it possible that someone is coming to China again?"
It’s no wonder Lin Siqiao thought so, ever since the guy from China came last year.
In the past two years, other countries have followed suit and like to visit China when they have nothing to do.
"What's wrong? Are you scared now?"
"No."
Lin Siqiao was being stubborn. She simply felt that the schedule was too tight.
When the file was opened, it turned out not to be the information of any important person, but an application for admission.
The applicant field is left blank.
But in the list of recommenders below, in addition to my senior brother, there are also several famous old scholars from Peking University.
"Big Brother, do you want me to enter now?"
"yes."
Minister Wu nodded and said, "Junior Sister, since you are planning to take this path, you must arrange these as soon as possible."
Lin Siqiao understood as soon as he heard it.
"Thank you, Big Brother."
"You should thank the master."
Minister Wu didn't dare to take credit in front of his master.
"Master was the one who thought of this matter. I just followed him and ran errands."
“Master…”
As soon as Lin Siqiao opened her mouth, she was interrupted by Elder Liang, "We are all family, don't say those polite words."
"You haven't been to class these past few days. I guess you must have fallen behind in your French and German studies."
"But it doesn't matter, Master has prepared it for you!"
Mr. Liang found some teaching materials and study materials from somewhere, several thick books, and twenty or thirty mimeographed test papers.
"Take these back and consolidate them. Remember to hand in the test paper to me before next Monday."
"If you have any questions, feel free to come to my office and I'll give you some advice!"
After reading it, Lin Siqiao swallowed silently and looked at his senior brother.
Feeling her look as if asking for help, Minister Wu cleared his throat and helped explain a few words.
"Master, Junior Sister is now also responsible for the restaurant work in the embassy area of the Friendship Store."
"How about cutting her test score in half?"
“Yes, yes, yes.”
Lin Siqiao nodded frantically beside her. It wasn’t that she didn’t want to write.
However, every time I wrote on these mimeographed test papers, a layer of black ink would remain on my cuffs and palms.
Not only does this thing smell bad, it’s also extremely difficult to wash!
When Mr. Liang heard this, he frowned. He wanted to ask who arranged this, but when he saw the expression of his eldest disciple, he was confused.
"Ah Wu, you will have an open audition next February. Xiao Qiao's French and German are not as good as her English."
"You're distracting her to do this now. What if she loses the election?"
"Master, don't be anxious. Listen to my explanation."
Speaking of this, Minister Wu's expression suddenly became serious.
"Master, you know that things have not been going well at the liaison office."
"Someone from Fang had already extended an olive branch to Junior Sister, but she rejected it verbally."
"But I received inside information. They haven't given up on this idea. They even want to transfer my junior sister to the country through public dispatch."
"Just yesterday, I received news from the liaison office in the country."
"They have already submitted an application, saying they want to transfer a few experienced translators from China."
Minister Wu didn't say anything else, but Mr. Liang and Lin Siqiao understood after looking at each other.
It seems that the people in the liaison office abroad could not resist the temptation and started working for the country's people.
Fortunately, Minister Wu thought it through and arranged a formal position for Lin Siqiao via an official letter in advance.
In this way, even if the country's people want to take advantage of her, they can't openly compete with the country for people.
"Junior sister, I'm sorry that I didn't discuss this with you in advance."
"Brother, I know you are doing this for my own good."
Lin Siqiao is not the kind of person who doesn't know what's good for him, if it weren't for the senior brother who had set up the plan in advance.
In her situation, if she went abroad alone, she would only have two options.
Either cooperate with them or die.
Minister Wu nodded and continued talking about his arrangements.
"I've already called the Friendship Store. The company's bus will come pick you up on weekends."
"The guy who works as your assistant was previously the head of a long-established restaurant."
"She is one of us, you can teach her about management without any worries."
"I'll arrange for you to meet again some other day when I have time."
After saying this, Minister Wu looked directly at Mr. Liang.
"Master, Junior Sister's talent is far more than just language."
"Director Hu of the Friendship Store told me that he is very confident this time."
"If Junior Sister can revitalize this restaurant, your future will be smoother."
"It's just that Junior Sister may have to work harder during this period."
Minister Wu explained the whole story very clearly, and Mr. Liang didn't say anything after listening.
"I'm just worried that she'll miss that opportunity next year."
"Oh... never mind. Now we can only take it one step at a time."
Lin Siqiao felt uncomfortable seeing the worried look on Mr. Liang's face.
"Master, I haven't been delayed much these past few days."
"If you don't believe me, I'll do a test and you'll know."
After saying this, Lin Siqiao took out a pen from her bag, picked up a test paper at random, and started writing quickly.
Half an hour later, Lin Siqiao respectfully handed over the completed test paper.
Mr. Liang took it and read through the questions one by one from top to bottom.
There is nothing but silence.
He felt that he seemed to have underestimated his little apprentice!
This test paper was obviously a bit beyond the syllabus, but she still finished all of it with almost no mistakes.
Mr. Liang is very worried now.
If this continues, will there be nothing he can teach?
Lin Siqiao and Minister Wu waited for a long time but Mr. Liang didn't say anything, and they were very nervous.
After a while, Mr. Liang finally spoke.
"Xiao Qiao, you don't have to do these papers and homework anymore."
"You can come up with your own study plan. Master won't make any arrangements for you."
"If you don't understand anything, just come and ask me."
Lin Siqiao was a little bit unconvinced, "Master, do you mean I don't have to do homework anymore?"
"Yes, no need to write."
If he wasn't afraid that his little disciple would become proud, Mr. Liang would have said that you don't even need to attend the class.
With the protection of his master and senior brother, Lin Siqiao was able to solve several problems smoothly.
Meanwhile, on the other side.
The platform broadcast at Beijing Railway Station issued another notice.
"Dear passengers, we are sorry to inform you."
"The train from Shanghai to Beijing is delayed due to special reasons."
"Arrival time is to be determined, please be patient."
