There are twenty-one steps in total going down the stairs.
When I walked around the corner, I turned around again for no reason, and returned to the last step.
"Xiao Zhi, you didn't let her jump out of the window and escape, right?"
Ma Jiaxunyi's unique high-pitched and slightly mean voice came out melodiously.
Che Linwan felt inexplicably creepy.
When she looked up towards the kitchen, she caught a glimpse of Xia Mingzhi getting a drink from the refrigerator.
"Whoosh! Whoosh!"
However, Xia Mingzhi walked over without any reaction...
"Why don't you go and see if she jumped out of the window and escaped?"
"I really hope she jumped out of the window and escaped."
"say what?"
"I'm afraid that she has been standing at the stairs for a long time and is too embarrassed to come out."
"!" Che Linwan felt a burst of electricity pass through his back, and the hair on his whole back stood up.
Ma Jiaxunyi always dresses brightly and meticulously.
She was wearing a decorative lens-less frame today, and there was a strand of hair that seemed to be casually scattered around her ears, delicate and elegant.
She has many similarities with Bai Xiaofei, but is subtly different.
So Che Linwan decided to seek common ground while reserving differences for the time being, just like he did with Ms. Bai, trying to find the shining points in the other party.
"Well, hello, Ms. Ma Jia!"
"I thought you ran away?"
Taking a deep breath, Che Linwan decided to pretend he didn't understand.
"Excuse me. Let's talk about the matter between Xiaoxia and I when we return to the research institute. I'll go back first!"
Ma Jiaxunyi suddenly stood up and reached out to Che Linwan.
It took a while to realize that she meant to shake hands.
"First of all, I have to thank you, Doctor Che. Both Xiao Zhi and the deputy director of your institute have expressed to me your careful guidance on Xiao Zhi's work."
"Where there is, it should be."
"It is a blessing to have a good mentor in life no matter what. Right Xiao Zhi?"
He forced his son to be punished, but Xia Minzhi didn't appreciate it. He took a sip of Bingkuoluo and sat there leisurely.
"My son's resignation should have been approved by your office."
Che Linwan glanced at Xia Mingzhi secretly, "Actually, the reason why I came here this time is about his resignation. I think..."
"Are you here because of his resignation?" Ma Jiaxunyi's tone was full of sarcasm. Even Xia Mingzhi, who had always been accustomed to hearing this, couldn't help but sit up straight in case she suddenly said something shocking. Fortunately, there is a buffer.
"The institute and I personally agree with Xiaoxia's work performance, and we all hope that he can stay. Although we are not a well-known research institution, the reports we produce are well-known in the industry... "
Che Linwan didn't want to admit that she was interrupted, but the other party's sneer did give her a psychological blow.
"His father and I do not plan to be a coroner in his... future plans. That is his own preference, and I will not comment on it. But it is impossible for him to work in a private research institution like yours, even if The official research organization is meaningless, so I just resign and there is no way I can go back.”
This was something Che Linwan didn't expect at all.
Her eyes moved to Xia Mingzhi in surprise, hoping to get the answer from him personally.
Xia Mingzhi has always been a rational person with his own opinions, unwilling to follow the crowd, and not like someone who would succumb to the authority of his parents.
When she looked at him, he showed an indifferent attitude at first, but gradually he couldn't sit still. Finally he stood up and walked around the window sill.
"Xiaoxia, so you have decided long ago that you want to leave WSTI? If so, you could actually tell me earlier or discuss it with me. You also know that Brother De and the Human Resources Department attach great importance to the cultivation of new people. You I am the beneficiary of this internship program. I have put a lot of thought into you and guided you. We don’t need you to repay or pay tuition. Although you may not care, I do. I have applied for the maximum intern subsidy for you. If you want to leave, at least let me know first, instead of just leaving suddenly, at least give me time for the institute to recruit another backup.”
Even Ma Jiaxunyi couldn't refute what she said.
Because every word she said was reasonable and the most authentic feedback.
It is not cheap for any institution to train a new person, and there are certain sunk costs.
Although Xia Mingzhi also brought practical benefits to the institute, the energy Che Linwan and De Ge spent on an intern was priceless.
Ma Jiaxunyi finally gave in, "If you want compensation for the internship project, no matter how much it is..."
Che Linwan raised his hand, "Ms. Ma Jia, you misunderstood. The expense has never been a project managed by me. I am just very disappointed in your son. I have always cherished my own resources, so I hope that everyone in my group Everyone is.”
Xia Mingzhi stared at her forbearingly. He had a lot to say in his eyes, but in the end the only thing that came to his lips was, "I'm sorry, Doctor Che!"
"Since you have decided to leave, I won't persuade you. Excuse me!"
"Doctor Che." Ma Jiaxunyi stopped Che Linwan who was about to retreat (escape?), "Now the conversation about the purpose of your visit is over. Can we move on to the next item?"
"Next item? What is it?"
"The thing about you spending the night in my son's room."
After finishing speaking, she paused for a long time to give Che Linwan enough mental preparation.
"Dr. Che, I heard an intern from our socialite association say... Oh, I'm really embarrassed to say it. She changed your clothes for you and sent them to you for dry cleaning. Do the doctors at your institute give you such instructions? student's?"
Che Linwan just wanted to tear his own face off! ! !
"I'm not... I don't... I really..." She looked at the little intern for help, please help me... Please save the baby...
"Ms. Ma Jia, I, Che Linwan, swear to the sky that Xiaoxia and I have absolutely nothing to do with your son..."
"You are all adults, you don't need to swear to me for this kind of thing."
"We don't! Madam, I don't! I really don't..." I really don't have old cows to eat young grass! I really have no unspoken rules for being an intern myself.
I didn't... woo woo woo!
"Mom, can you please stop mentioning this matter?!"
"Okay. Just ask Dr. Che to write a letter of recommendation. Simple, right?"
"Letter of recommendation?"
"Yes. A letter of recommendation issued by your associate professor qualification. It proves that you performed well during the internship and completed an excessive number of levels of individual research alone."
"Ah!" In fact, he did it.
It was when helping Su Zhenling complete the autopsy.
But she couldn't write it because he had not yet reached the qualifications. If it was recognized that he had completed the autopsy alone at WSTI, it would mean that there were irregularities in the official report issued by WSTI.
"Mom, don't embarrass Dr. Che. I don't need that kind of recommendation letter."
"You don't need it? Xia Mingzhi, don't get mad at me, don't be like your father, who sleeps with the other one and loves the other one!"
"mom!!!"
His eyes were instantly filled with scarlet bloodshot eyes.
Ma Jiaxunyi and Che Linwan couldn't help but tremble in fright. They were frightened by Xia Mingzhi in front of them.
