Chapter 180 Deep Virtual Reality 7
"Beep beep—"
A human figure appears on the pop-up screen, with the option to request a connection below.
Remembering that the white-bearded old man was his professor, Leander, Xie Ning quickly answered the video call. Immediately afterward, an elderly man in a white coat appeared in the video. His eyes, which had been smiling, closed up when he saw the dilapidated little room behind Xie Ning.
"Ning, my darling, you live here?"
Professor Leander's eyes widened dramatically, as if he couldn't believe it. He then rubbed his forehead. He knew that Shening was a poor student at the school, so he would help him out whenever he applied for a scholarship.
After all, Xie Ning could only afford those operating tools, which were very cheap for other students, with his scholarship. He had considered that this girl might be struggling, but living in such an old and dilapidated room was something he could hardly imagine.
Professor Leander came from a wealthy family and never had to worry about money. Money was just a string of numbers to him, far less attractive than a piece of iron in the laboratory.
That's why he was so surprised to see the room behind Xie Ning that was more dilapidated than he had imagined; heaven knows his own toilet was bigger than this.
Meeting Professor Leander's pitying gaze, Xie Ning didn't seem to feel much, and simply asked, "Is there something you need from me?"
Professor Leander, who had been looking at Shening's room with a mixture of disdain and curiosity, finally remembered his purpose, and his expression immediately became excited.
"Ning, Norton and Huarui have a project together. Huarui Technology is recruiting students from our school, so I recommended you. This is a great learning opportunity, so you have to seize it!"
Xie Ning had excellent grades in school, but it was a pity that she didn't continue her studies. He wanted to sponsor her to continue her studies, but the girl was very stubborn and refused to accept.
Professor Leander glanced enigmatically at Shen Ning's living conditions and encouraged her, "Although it's just an assistant position, you can learn a lot. And you can even use it to change your place of residence, so keep it up!"
Collaborative projects?
Norton and Huarui are two of the top technology companies. The professor must have put in a lot of effort to get himself into this project, but... Xie Ning smiled bitterly, "Professor, I missed the interview with Huarui Technology. My resume has been returned and there is a one-month cooling-off period."
She probably won't get to enjoy this windfall.
"Cooldown period? It's okay." Leander waved his hand. "You were referred, so the cooldown period won't affect you."
Xie Ning was stunned. Was this the power of having connections?
Now that she had a job opportunity, she had to seize it. There were still three days until the interview, and Xie Ning planned to use these three days to digest the mechanical knowledge she had memorized!
If my abilities still don't pass the interview, then I'll think of other ways.
After finishing the video call with Professor Leander, Xie Ning breathed a sigh of relief; he had a job lined up.
Then, he unfolded the tablet to continue looking at the materials. The original owner's study materials were all stored in the tablet inside the metal briefcase, which was a transparent screen sandwiched between two metal plates. When not in use, it could be closed.
Because she had slept for a long time in the hospital, Xie Ning was not sleepy at all. Instead, she kept switching between the content on her tablet, memorizing the knowledge points little by little before she could proceed to the next step of practical operation.
The original owner had a small box filled with all sorts of repair tools. Xie Ning planned to go to the street to find an opportunity to practice after reviewing the knowledge points.
The rain outside the window gradually intensified, and even when the time indicator on the wristband reached five o'clock, the downpour was still pattering against the window.
There was a rustling sound outside the door; it must be Zhan Lin getting up. It seems that the job of a security guard, although the benefits are good, is also hard work, requiring them to get up early and work late.
Feeling no hunger, Xie Ning rubbed her eyes wearily, then pulled the covers up and lay down on the narrow single bed. She set an alarm for nine o'clock and fell asleep.
The clock hands ticked away, and a tiny but sharp sound, like fingernails scratching glass, pierced Xie Ning's ears, instantly waking her from her light sleep.
The walls here are not very soundproof, so Xie Ning could still hear even the slightest noise from the balcony.
