Lu Chenxi was praised, but she was not proud.
Instead, I humbly told the adults that this was normal.
"Some of the kids were the worst. In the summer, I saw them catching earthworms, snakes, and frogs to scare timid girls."
"Oh, has Xixi ever been scared by anyone?"
He Wenjing asked curiously.
Lu Chenxi shook her head, "No, auntie, no one dares to bully me."
"I'm awesome."
Cheng Xiangqian, Zhao Hongtao, and Hongmin, brothers standing by, also added, "We won't let anyone bully our younger brothers and sisters."
They are brothers.
Protecting their younger brothers and sisters is their duty and mission.
They definitely don't disappoint.
A small child and a small promise made the adults smile from ear to ear.
The three families went into the house and ate while waiting for the arrival of the New Year.
Time always flies quickly in laughter.
After the Chinese New Year, the Lantern Festival is not far away. After the Lantern Festival, the New Year has not yet come.
Everyone is still immersed in the joy of the New Year.
After the 29th day of the first lunar month, we officially enter February, and that is when the Chinese New Year is over.
Adults who have been working for more than 20 days and children who have been in school for half a month have finally been able to focus their attention.
I was shocked to realize that one twelfth of the year had already passed.
Jiang Tang also returned to school to complete her studies that she had missed.
Xu Jin, who had already graduated and stayed on to teach at the school, was shocked to see his senior sister whom he hadn't seen for several years. She still looked as young as before.
He immediately left his students behind and came forward.
"Senior Sister?"
"It's really you, Senior Sister, when did you come back?"
Xu Jin had a smile on his face, his joy evident in words.
"Several years have passed, and you haven't changed at all, Senior Sister."
Jiang Tang nodded. After all, a few years were only a few days to her, so of course she wouldn't change at all.
As for Xu Jin, he has grown from Little Xu to Old Xu, and his hair has turned a lot whiter.
"What’s wrong with you?"
Jiang Tang asked.
The young professor scratched his head, a little embarrassed. "The lab is full of things to do and the workload is heavy. I haven't noticed that my hair has turned gray before I know it."
In the past, Xu Jin didn’t feel that much pressure because he had his senior sister and teacher around.
But after his senior sister disappeared, the teacher was getting older and older, and he couldn't bear to put all the burden on the teacher.
Before he knew it, his hair had turned white.
But I'm thirty years old anyway, so it doesn't matter if I have white hair or am bald. As long as the lab can do a good job, that's enough.
Jiang Tang frowned and thought for a moment, then shook his head, "We have to pay attention to our image as well."
"You can't be thirty years old and look eighty. That would also damage the image of the school."
After she finished speaking, she paused, frowned, and added, "Also, if you're too old, I wouldn't be able to agree to call you Senior Sister."
In fact, she kind of dislikes her junior teacher.
But Little Ginseng is now tactful and doesn't say the word "disdain" directly.
Even though she didn't say anything, her actions and expressions couldn't lie.
Xu Jin was injured.
But then he thought, Senior Sister is such a straightforward and sincere person, he shouldn't take it to heart.
Xu Jin comforted himself with a smile, and then asked Jiang Tang about the purpose of coming to school.
"Finish the unfinished courses."
"Oh, Senior Sister, will you join our project team? We launched several projects at the beginning of last year. Do you want to join?"
Xu Jin is very much looking forward to Jiang Tang joining.
Jiang Tang shook his head and said, "No, after I finish my studies, I will go to work at my new company."
"I told my mentor about this."
"Ah..." Xu Jin hadn't expected that his senior sister wouldn't want to stay at Peking University. "Senior sister, what kind of organization is that? Are the compensation and benefits they offer better than what we have at our school?"
"Does our school have as many opportunities for studying and conducting research abroad?"
Looking around, their school is definitely on the list of institutions with the best benefits.
A good reputation, good benefits, special government aid, and a window into the country's opening up to the outside world...
A school like this can’t keep my senior sister?
"They are not a particularly large unit. They were just established and their strength is not very strong."
Jiang Tang did not hide it from Xu Jin.
Xu Jin was a little frustrated. "Is that a welfare issue?"
If it is an issue of salary and benefits, Xu Jin is willing to help his senior sister fight for it. He hopes that his senior sister will stay here and fight alongside him.
I also hope that talents like my senior sister can shine in better units.
"no."
Jiang Tang also frankly admitted that she didn't choose the place because of the welfare benefits, "it's just because it's closer to home."
“…”
Xu Jin didn't know what to say.
Is his senior sister the kind of person who would give up a great career just to be closer to home?
Xu Jin was a little confused.
At the same time, I also feel that my senior sister shouldn’t be such a person.
But there's nothing wrong with that.
Jiang Tang wants to work and earn money, but also wants to spend time with his family.
She uses her working time to earn money to serve the motherland and contribute to society.
When she is not working, she also wants to spend more time with her family.
Work is not everything, she also has her own life.
She thought this way, and Xu Jin had no other choice but to stop trying to persuade her.
Fortunately, my senior sister is back and I know where she works. If there is anything in the future, I can discuss it with her.
My dear, there is more to this chapter. Please click on the next page to continue reading. It will be even more exciting later!
