The atmosphere in this place is really bad. Before he even arrived, they had already chosen assistants for him without his permission, and they chose four of them. It's like there are people who have nowhere to go, so they just keep stuffing them in front of him. It's a headache just thinking about it.
Ma Weicheng's face, originally full of smiles, froze for a moment. He then forced a smile to hide his embarrassment and said humbly, "Even if we don't need an assistant, it would be an honor for us to study with Professor Yan for a while."
Hearing him say this, Yan Jun looked up at him in surprise. He didn't expect that even though he spoke so harshly, this young man was still so kind and considerate. This patience alone was enough to make him look up to him.
However, he just glanced at Ma Weicheng and stopped talking. Instead, he got into the car in silence.
"Professor Yan, knowing that you are coming today, your colleagues have specially prepared a welcoming party. I will help you put down your luggage later. Let's go over and take a look first?" Ma Weicheng and Professor Yan were sitting in the back row together. After hesitating for a moment, he still made a suggestion.
Professor Yan, who had been resting, slowly opened his eyes. "I won't accept your bribes, so forget about the reception! I look at your ability. If you don't have it, I won't use any of you four."
Yan Jun directly said the unpleasant words. Ma Weicheng didn't understand that the people around him were trying to intimidate him. Instead, he continued to persuade him as if he didn't understand: "Professor, this is not a bribe. It's just something that our colleagues specially prepared for you to welcome you."
Yan Jun felt that although the young man next to him spoke smoothly, he did not understand the ways of the world. With his current attitude, it was clear that he wanted to distance himself from them, but he still spared no effort to persuade him.
"Well, I'll go over later to see how you plan to welcome us." Then he closed his eyes again, as if refusing to communicate.
Ma Weicheng still had a smile on his face and didn't look angry at all.
The car soon arrived at the military area. Professor Yan was first taken to his residence to put his luggage away, and then he was taken to the office.
In the office, everyone waited and waited, and when they were already feeling sleepy, they finally heard footsteps.
You Lu patted Yan Yu's arm and signaled him to cheer up with her eyes. The first impression was extremely important, so everyone was very attentive.
After the door was opened, the first person to come in was Ma Weicheng. When Yan Yu was about to ask Ma Weicheng about Professor Yan, he noticed that a strange old man followed him in.
The old man was quite old, and it was clearly Professor Yan himself. Everyone immediately stood up, greeting Professor Yan and showing respect to this stranger. Although they hadn't rehearsed this beforehand, they all shouted in unison, "Hello, Professor Yan!"
Professor Yan's hair was gray, his clothes were washed white, and he looked a little haggard. However, in the face of everyone's warm greetings, Professor Yan's expression did not change, and he simply nodded in response.
After Professor Yan came in, everyone hurriedly wanted to invite Professor Yan to sit in the main seat above.
Professor Yan waved his hand and refused, "No need. Let's cut to the chase. I'm here to develop greenhouse agriculture in Northwest China. As for assistants, I don't need any, and I don't need any of that kind of clutter. I allow you to come with me, and don't worry about anything else."
Everyone was stunned by this unexpected change, but they quickly reacted and didn't pay any attention to Professor Yan's words. Instead, they said happily, "It would be great if we could become assistants. If not, we would be honored to learn agricultural knowledge from Professor Yan. So, no matter what Professor Yan's plans are, we will do our job as assistants during this period, and we hope Professor Yan will be willing to give us some advice."
Professor Yan didn't expect that when he said this, these four people were not angry or angry about being fooled. Instead, they were very grateful.
Professor Yan briefly reflected on whether he had spoken too harshly, but once words were spoken, they could no longer be forgotten.
"You all go back and just be at work on time tomorrow. If Xiao Ma has nothing to do in the afternoon, you can take me around." After saying that, he was about to go out.
Professor Yan had traveled a long way by train and certainly had not had a good rest or meal, so everyone packed up some of the prepared food and asked Ma Weicheng to take it and send it over.
Professor Yan took a look but didn't say anything.
"Professor Yan looks so fierce."
You Lu looked at the backs of Professor Yan and Ma Weicheng as they left, and suddenly made a comment.
"Then what are we doing here? He doesn't even hire an assistant." Yan Yu was very angry when he heard this and wanted to refute, but was stopped in time by You Lu.
"Although the professor is a bit old-fashioned and serious, and his words are not very pleasant, he is a professor after all. Even if he only stays with us for a few months, we will benefit a lot if he can teach us seriously." Song Zhi looked at Yan Yu's always impulsive personality and analyzed the key to the problem for him.
"Yes, Sister Xiaozhi is right, and maybe he is not familiar with us now. Once he gets familiar with us and changes his opinion of us, he will plan to keep us again. Yan Yu, you should not be so impulsive in the future. We are a group now. It doesn't matter whether you offend people or not, but at least don't implicate us." You Lu said the truth without any mercy.
"you……"
"By the way, should we rest at home in the afternoon as Professor Yan said?" You Lu was a little confused.
Song Zhi was unsure about Professor Yan's character, whether he was just saying it casually or it depended on their choice.
"When Ma Weicheng comes back, let's ask him. Then we can discuss it and clean up and start eating when Ma Weicheng comes back!"
"Aren't you worried that he will take all the credit and not let us go?" Yan Yu looked at her in disbelief, his eyes as if asking, "Are you stupid?"
"Do you think he is that kind of person?" Song Zhi asked back.
In fact, this kind of speculation is not impossible, but if there is suspicion everywhere, things may not be handled well, but instead you will be constantly consumed by suspicion.
"Not like that now, but we haven't been with him for long." Yan Yu told the truth.
"If it doesn't look like that now, then that's it. If it looks like that in the future, then we'll talk about it later. We can't guarantee that a person's thoughts won't change over time."
The topic was over. Seeing that Ma Weicheng had not come over for such a long time, Yan Yu couldn't wait and took out a piece of cake to eat.
"It tastes really good. Sister Xiaozhi's cooking skills are really great." The moment Yan Yu called out Sister Xiaozhi, Song Zhi's brain short-circuited for a moment. Why does this energetic young man always say shocking things?
