Chapter 293 The hanging heart finally died!
One month later.
Su Mei's worried heart finally died.
The test results are out, and only one person passed the test, a boy Su Mei doesn't know.
She failed the test, and Chu Tian, the only senior student she knew in the examination room, also failed.
When the results came out, Su Mei was a little disappointed, but she quickly accepted the reality. After all, she did not complete the test.
Looking at the zero written behind the advanced experiment, Su Mei could only comfort herself - it’s okay, at worst she can try again next year.
If you didn’t pass, you didn’t pass. You can’t always expect an exception in the exam.
Chu Tian, on the other hand, was so excited that she ran back and forth countless times in front of the bulletin board posted on the experimental building. She felt that she was wronged:
"I got full marks on the high-difficulty experiment, but I was deducted five points for the medium-difficulty experiment. This is too unfair~"
"Senior, it's just a test. If you fail once, there's always next time. It doesn't matter. At worst you can come again next year. You can't fail every time!" Su Mei thought that Chu Tian had always been very friendly to her, so she went up to her and comforted her.
As a result, Chu Tian became even more sad after her comfort:
"Junior, this is my third time taking the test. There will be no next year. I can't enter the laboratory. I have to follow my old man's instructions and return to Shanghai to work."
Su Mei: “………”
"Junior, I'm so sad. Can you accompany me to dinner and relax?" Chu Tian looked at Su Mei pitifully.
Although Su Mei and Chu Tian had only met a few times in the examination room, Chu Tian was more enthusiastic and the two of them were somewhat familiar with each other. Su Mei thought it was no big deal and did not refuse.
As a result, Su Mei regretted her decision not long after arriving at the hotel.
Because Chu Tian drank without restraint, he soon became a drunkard.
During this period, Su Mei advised Chu Tian many times, but she would not listen. In the end, she got herself drunk and fell on the table unconscious.
Because she didn't know where Chu Tian lived, Su Mei could only send Chu Tian to the yard where Li Shufen lived and asked Li Shufen and Yang Suhua to look after him.
After settling Chu Tian down, Su Mei walked back to the yard where she lived.
In the yard, Huo Jianguo was already waiting impatiently.
Seeing Su Mei coming home, he asked a little aggrievedly: "Why did you take so long to come back?"
"I encountered something and was delayed!" Su Mei said, and told Huo Jianguo about her encounter with Chu Tian and how Chu Tian asked her to go out for dinner.
When Su Mei was about to leave to check her grades in the morning, a rich man from next door happened to buy some coal briquettes and came to ask Huo Jianguo to help him transport them back.
Because of this, Huo Jianguo did not go out with Su Mei.
After hearing Su Mei's reasons, Huo Jianguo was still somewhat dissatisfied. He rested his chin on Su Mei's head and acted like a spoiled little wife:
"Wife, please don't come home late without telling me next time. I kept reheating the food in the pot, and the shredded potatoes have turned into potato paste!"
"Okay, I won't do it next time!" As soon as Huo Jianguo started to act coquettishly, Su Mei couldn't resist and reached out to touch his big head.
It was like comforting a big golden retriever that was begging for love.
After being calmed down, Huo Jianguo told Su Mei another thing:
"By the way, Qin Fang came to see you this morning. Your master asked you to go to his house after you finish your homework."
"Then go have a meal first, and we'll go after you finish eating!" Although the test failed and I felt a little regretful, I still had to report the result to my master.
Huo Jianguo took Su Mei's hand and walked towards the kitchen: "Okay! You eat with me."
"I can't eat anymore. Just now in the hotel I..." Su Mei touched her stomach which was 70% full and refused Huo Jianguo.
So Huo Jianguo stopped walking towards the kitchen.
When he heard that Su Mei was not going to have dinner with him, he quickly turned around and looked straight at Su Mei, his eyebrows slightly raised, and his voice was mixed with a little grievance and coquettishness:
"Would you please eat with me for a bit? My meal becomes tasteless when I eat alone. If you don't eat, then I won't eat either."
"Alright, alright, I'll eat it." Su Mei raised her hands helplessly in surrender, "I'm really scared of you!"
Who can resist a macho man acting like a spoiled brat?
Hearing Su Mei's agreement, Huo Jianguo immediately showed a triumphant smile on his face.
He let go of Su Mei's hand, turned and walked towards the kitchen, saying as he walked:
"You said it, Comrade Xiao Su. You must keep your word."
The two of them quickly ate lunch, then closed the door and prepared to go to Qin Zhengting's house.
In order to facilitate their travel, Huo Jianguo bought a second-hand bicycle some time ago. At this moment, it is parked quietly in the yard, waiting for them to ride it.
The two went out and got on their bicycles. Huo Jianguo carried Su Mei and rode like an arrow on the familiar streets.
Not long after, the two arrived at Qin Zhengting's door.
As soon as she got off the car, Su Mei heard Qin Zhengting's voice coming from the yard:
"Dong Tian really surprised me this time. He actually made such a big move and came up with such results.
He has the ability, so I can temporarily ignore his character issues, and there is no need to rush to let Su Mei take his place."
Su Mei's heart moved when she heard this. She had never heard of the name Dong Tian, but from her master's words, it was not difficult for her to guess that the Dong Tian her master was talking about was the current dean of the medical school.
In the past, whenever the master mentioned the current dean, his face was filled with disdain. This was the first time she heard such compliments from the master!
They pushed their bicycles into the courtyard of Qin Zhengting's house. Only after entering the yard did they realize that Qin Zhengting was drinking tea with Qin Zhengfeng and several old men whom Su Mei did not know.
Seeing Su Mei and Huo Jianguo coming in, Qin Zhengting put down his teacup and greeted them with a smile:
"Su Mei, Jianguo, you are here, come and sit down."
Su Mei and Huo Jianguo sat down opposite Qin Zhengting. Qin Zhengting looked at Su Mei with a satisfied smile on his face:
"Su Mei, you are almost more famous than your master in Yanjing."
"Master, if you praise me again, I will be too embarrassed to speak." Su Mei smiled and shook her head, then told Qin Zhengting the results of the test.
Qin Zhengting obviously knew the result a long time ago. Although he was a little disappointed, his tone was still gentle:
"Don't be discouraged if you don't pass. I, your master, also went through the same journey. You are only a freshman. It is impossible to achieve success overnight. Everything has a process. You can't eat hot tofu in a hurry.
But I was quite surprised by Dong Tian. He published a paper a few days ago and came up with new research results, which caused a huge sensation both at home and abroad.
Judging from his research results, he is not that bad in academics, so there is no need to rush to usurp his position. You can take your time."
Su Mei: “….”
"What research results have earned Master's praise so much?" Su Mei asked casually because she saw that Master was in high spirits.
But what Qin Zhengting said made Su Mei stunned on the spot, because Qin Zhengting said:
"He synthesized a new compound - an organoborane."
