Gu Nianzhi's bachelor's thesis was carefully revised by He Zhichu, and her own ability was also very outstanding, so she was completely invincible in the defense. The defense committee unanimously approved it and was rated as the best graduation thesis for this year's senior law students. excellent thesis.
This result was not surprising to Gu Nianzhi at all.
For her, there was no suspense about her graduation defense. What she concentrated on preparing for was He Zhichu's exam.
This exam will determine whether she can get one of the two places to be an intern in the U.S. Congress.
Gu Nianzhi regretted it at first. She didn't agree at once, so she had to work hard to prepare for the exam.
However, after reading all the professional books assigned by He Zhichu related to American law and congressional structure, she understood He Zhichu's intentions and felt that it would be better to take the exam.
At least it can have a coercive effect, so that she can become familiar with and understand the basic principles of American law and the legal principles of the American Congress in a short period of time.
On June 15th, Gu Nianzhi was so busy that he only had one breakfast.
She came out of the large conference room of the law department in the morning for her defense, and took He Zhichu's exam in the afternoon.
He Zhichu's exam format is very unique.
It is not through examination papers, but like on-site Q&A, it simulates the form of a U.S. Congress meeting, and then integrates various related knowledge into it to test their mastery of knowledge and adaptability.
He Zhichu, who was presiding over the exam, was in the United States. Except for Gu Nianzhi, all the candidates taking the exam were in City B.
Therefore, the exam is conducted via remote video conferencing.
Gu Nianzhi turned on his computer and connected to the exam website.
He Zhichu's handsome face appeared on the computer screen.
A pair of twinkling peach blossom eyes looked straight through the screen, which was shocking and insightful.
Gu Nianzhi sighed in his heart, a person with such eyes should be a judge, not a lawyer.
With one look from these eyes, any tough-talking criminal would immediately confess and be punished
"... Before the exam starts, I'll take a roll call first." He Zhichu's clear voice came from the earphones. Gu Nianzhi hurriedly sat upright. When he heard his name, he responded with a crisp "Arrive".
He Zhichu was sitting alone in his large office. He clicked the mouse to enlarge Gu Nianzhi's profile picture on the screen. The portraits of the other 37 candidates became small black dots on the screen...
"Today's test question, the first question, how does the U.S. Congress initiate proposals? - You can enter your own answers in the dialog box without speaking. The time limit is one minute."
The time is so short that candidates have no time to look up information.
Gu Nianzhi answered all the common sense questions easily and then entered the debate stage.
This is not a problem for Gu Nianzhi. She is always very articulate and knows how to catch the loopholes in people's words.
Even if she was facing a doctoral candidate who was several levels above her, she was not afraid at all.
She was smiling and laughing. Although she spoke sharply and harshly, her speaking speed was neither urgent nor slow, and her voice was pleasant, so that the person being rebutted would not feel uncomfortable.
Unconsciously, she set the pace of the entire debate.
The smile on He Zhichu's face became thicker and thicker, and joy rose from the bottom of his heart until it merged into the depths of his twinkling eyes.
Three hours passed quickly, and this difficult exam came to an end.
The candidates who took the exam all staggered in front of the camera and were exhausted.
He Zhichu said calmly: "Can't you stand this kind of intensity? Once the U.S. Congress is in session and wants to pass a bill, it is common for them to work at such high intensity for seven or eight days."
Everyone hurriedly sat down and did not dare to relax again.
After taking the exam, you have to wait for the results.
But the candidates who took the exam all knew very well that one of the two places must be for their junior master sister Gu Nianzhi.
Because her performance in the exam was so eye-catching, they, the doctoral students, were resigned to losing.
As for who the other spot will be given to, it's none of Gu Nianzhi's business.
In fact, Gu Nianzhi received a text message from He Zhichu within ten minutes after finishing the exam: "Congratulations, prepare to go to the United States."
Gu Nianzhi was so happy that she almost jumped up.
She didn't even have time to turn off the camera, so she raised her fists and ran around the dormitory screaming.
Because she wanted to take a remote video exam, the other three people in the dormitory went out consciously and have not returned yet.
Gu Nian was the only one in the dormitory at this time.
It was her time to let herself go.
He Zhichu saw Gu Nianzhi's cheerful look on the other side of the world. He rested his chin on his desk with both hands and smiled slightly.
He closed the other candidates' pages and left Gu Nian alone. After she had made enough trouble, she said slowly: "Nianzhi, your... camera hasn't been turned off yet."
He Zhichu's voice came from the microphone of the laptop, and Gu Nianzhi suddenly felt embarrassed.
She walked back to the desk and saw He Zhichu's handsome face on the computer screen, as well as the teasing look in his eyes. She closed her eyes, reached out, and closed the laptop with a click.
Soon, her cell phone rang.
Gu Nianzhi took it and saw that it was a foreign phone number.
She opened her phone and asked, "Hi?"
"Nianzhi, why did you suddenly get disconnected?" It was He Zhichu's clear voice.
Gu Nianzhi: "..." Is it intentional? !
"Why don't you say anything?" He Zhichu asked again, "Have you applied for your visa? When can you come over?"
Gu Nianzhi breathed a sigh of relief. She was extremely embarrassed just now.
Fortunately, He Chu was still measured and did not continue to tease her.
"The passport has been applied for, but I have to wait for you to provide me with a certificate before I can apply for the visa." Gu Nianzhi said honestly, "If I only have a tourist visa, I can't go to Congress for an internship."
He Zhichu nodded, "Don't worry, your visa materials will be sent to you soon. You apply for an F1 student visa. After you come here, I will apply for OPT for you, so that you can go to the U.S. Congress as an intern."
"Thank you, Professor He." Gu Nianzhi thanked him very politely and hung up the phone.
On this day, except for being a little clown in front of He Zhichu, Gu Nianzhi was very satisfied with the rest of the time.
After the defense, she passed He Zhichu's exam. In theory, she was already He Zhichu's entry-level disciple.
For her, her undergraduate life ended on this day.
The passport has been issued, and the next step is to make a visa appointment at the visa section of the US consulate.
He Zhichu's materials were sent quickly, and by the weekend, Gu Nianzhi had obtained an F1 student visa to the United States.
He Zhichu was very anxious.
After learning that she had obtained her visa, she immediately ordered Wen Shouyi to buy air tickets for her and another doctoral candidate and let them take the June 20th flight to the United States.
Because they were on F1 student visas, He Zhichu, as the sponsoring professor, had to give them certain credits to meet the visa requirements.
Yin Shixiong didn't expect that they wanted it so urgently.
After communicating with Huo Shaoheng, he packed his luggage and went to the United States with Gu Nianzhi.
…
At the international airport in City C, Mei Xiawen reluctantly held Gu Nianzhi's hand, "Will you come back?"
"Of course I will come back. I will only go for half a year. I will go to University B next spring." Gu Nianzhi smiled and comforted him, "Don't think too much. It's so convenient to contact you now, so remember to contact him often."
Mei Xiawen nodded and sent Gu Nianzhi to the security gate.
Yin Shixiong did not stop him and followed him not far or near, without revealing his identity.
Seeing Gu Nianzhi's back disappearing through the security gate, Mei Xiawen reluctantly turned around and left.
But before he walked out of the departure hall, he saw a figure that had haunted him in his dreams, pushing a luggage trolley slowly towards him from another exit.
Mei Xiawen's whole body froze.
After a while, he came back to his senses.
The woman pushing the luggage stood in front of him and called him in surprise: "Xia Wen? Why are you here?! I'm so glad to see you as soon as I return home!"
It was his first girlfriend Jiang Hongcha.
