After having breakfast, Shang Ning contacted He Zhiyan. He Zhiyan had class in the morning, so Shang Ning went to wait for him to finish class.
The second canteen was the closest to He Zhiyan's class, so Shang Ning took her books and went there to wait for him.
He Zhiyan came over directly after class at 11:30. Shang Ning had already bought lunch. He Zhiyan put the courseware aside and then took the hand sanitizer that Shang Ning handed him and washed his hands.
"I'll take you to see Director Cheng in a bit. He's in charge of this matter, so it'll be better if you ask him," He Zhiyan said while eating. "You know Director Cheng, and you know how to talk to him."
Shang Ning nodded. "Actually, I still don't understand what they're thinking. I don't believe they don't know I haven't reached that level at all. I'm afraid there will be other things to come, after all, my parents..." Shang Ning said, but didn't continue.
He Zhiyan was aware of this as well, and it was also a concern he had previously had.
"You don't need to worry too much. Maybe they just want a reputation?"
"I hope so." That's all Shang Ning can think for now, since they won't know the real reason until they talk to them.
As mentioned in a previous episode, Shang Ning and Ning Kong are friends in private, so it makes sense for her to come here using Ning Kong's identity. Therefore, this matter is not troublesome.
After lunch, He Zhiyan took her there. Director Cheng had just finished his work and was about to leave, so he was a little surprised that He Zhiyan was taking someone with him.
However, after learning the purpose of the visit, Director Cheng's expression did not seem as good as before. He asked Shang Ning to sit down and said, "This matter has been studied by our school, so Ms. Ning, we may not be able to withdraw this matter."
"Shang Ningsheng had mentioned this issue to me more than once before she passed away. She didn't need these external honors. Moreover, as far as I know, she only proposed the topic of that experiment. It was Jin Yining's team that actually carried it out. I think even if Shang Ningsheng were alive, she wouldn't want this result."
Director Cheng frowned upon hearing this. He had watched this girl on a variety show before, and now he felt that her way of speaking was just as direct as Shang Ning's, which made him not very likable.
“Ms. Ning, this is a decision made by our school, and I don’t think we need to explain this to you.”
“Director Cheng, I didn’t mean to interfere with your work. It’s just that Shang Ning and I were friends when she was alive. Have you considered that this position, which is not worthy of her, might cause her trouble?” Shang Ning understood Director Cheng, so she didn’t care whether he was really angry at the moment. “If someone really comes up with a complaint, how do you plan to deal with it?”
“Ms. Ning, you may not be very familiar with the affairs of our academic community. Since our application was approved, there is naturally no problem,” Director Cheng said. “Ms. Ning was just a friend of Shang Ning’s during his lifetime, and this matter really has nothing to do with Ms. Ning.”
He Zhiyan placed a water glass in front of Shang Ning. "Director Cheng, I know Shang Ning. If she were still alive, she certainly wouldn't want this reputation."
Director Cheng glared at He Zhiyan, telling him to shut up.
“Director Cheng, I just don’t understand why we suddenly applied for this for her.” Shang Ning suppressed her temper to make herself seem less aggressive. “Jin Yining is also quite concerned about this matter. After all, Shang Ning and he had a good relationship when she was alive, so Jin Yining took over this experiment. He was filming and didn’t have time to come, so he asked me to come and ask.”
