The thin waist control followed behind her, still nagging: "What's the matter? You need to see someone. Can't you just tell me directly?"
He kept mumbling to himself, but he followed the girl very swiftly all the way into the tea restaurant on the first floor.
*
Inside the tea restaurant.
Tian Jing had finished a cup of coffee and was standing up restlessly, with her arms folded across her chest, her face stern: "Principal, why hasn't the freshman come back yet?"
She never called Qiao Nian's name, mainly because she didn't bother to remember it.
Liang Conglin didn't bother to pay attention to her hostile attitude. He kept looking towards the door and frowned slightly: "Wait a little longer."
Tian Jing looked at her watch, her expression becoming increasingly grim. "It's been 20 minutes. She was just going to pick someone up, not to look for someone. Why would it take so long?"
“…” Liang Conglin didn’t say anything.
The main reason was that Tian Jing’s hostile attitude was too obvious, and he didn’t want to be too blunt in front of the other three professors and embarrass her.
Logically, Qiao Nian is the top freshman at Tsinghua University, and Tian Jing, as a professor at Tsinghua University, is generally considered a teacher of students, regardless of whether he teaches in the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine or not.
Where is there a teacher who treats his students like enemies and is dissatisfied with everything about them
Seeing that Liang Conglin was unwilling to pay attention to Tian Jing, a professor from the Physics Department stood up to smooth things over and said between the two of them, "Okay, Professor Tian. Qiao Nian has only been out for ten minutes, which is not too long. He must be waiting for his friends to come down. Don't worry, wait a little longer. If he hasn't come back yet, we can go out and look for him."
Ten minutes is indeed not too long.
But now every minute and every second is extremely important to them.
Tian Jing shook her hands in annoyance and snorted, "I told you that bringing a new student here would only cause us trouble! It's fine if she can't help, but we'll have to send people to look for her later... I told you that she doesn't have any friends who can help us deliver the materials!"
Liang Conglin looked unhappy, his brows were furrowed, and his expression was clearly one of forbearance. His upbringing and politeness allowed him to restrain himself from getting into an argument with others.
But if Tian Jing continues to make sarcastic remarks, it will be hard to say.
The professor from the Department of Physics who was trying to stop the fight also saw that his patience was almost at its limit, so he quickly pulled back Tian Jing, who was unyielding, and said helplessly, "Professor Tian, it's okay, the students also want to help us, and their starting point is good."
Tian Jing wanted to say something else.
The other party pulled her again and motioned for her to look at the principal's expression.
Tian Jing is devoted to her research and is straightforward when it comes to dealing with human relationships. She has a weird personality and is difficult to get along with, but that doesn't mean she is a fool.
Her companions had reminded her so clearly, and even though she still had a lot of complaints about Qiao Nian, she had no choice but to endure it. However, there was still a rage in her heart that she couldn't vent. She pulled her face down, turned her head away, folded her arms, and kept silent.
She was not wrong!
If you can't help, then you can't help. There are so many professors here, and no one is asking you to help. But you volunteered and said you had a friend. But after going out to pick someone up for a long time, you didn't come back, and you had to trouble everyone to find someone...
No one can bear this kind of thing.
Isn't this just adding to the chaos
She was feeling irritated, so she shook her hands and stood there thinking for a while, then picked up her phone and put it down again. She wanted to call her friend, but then she felt that if she asked Liang Lu and Jiang Xianrou for help at this time, it would be equivalent to helping Qiao Nian out of the predicament. She hesitated for a moment and put the phone back.
