Liang Conglin wanted to find an opportunity to ask Qiao Nian about "Tianchen", but he couldn't find a suitable opportunity for the time being, so he could only go back to school to deal with the follow-up matters of this matter.
Chips are a research project that has received huge investment in China. This time, it has achieved a breakthrough success from zero to one, and most importantly, it has been recognized by the International IT Association. As the principal, he has to write a summary report. As for whether to include the fact that Qiao Nian asked someone for help in this summary, that is his private matter.
Liang Conglin did not intend to include this little episode.
After some greetings, the team of about 20 people dispersed outside the terminal.
Tian Jing is the silent one.
Whether at the airport in the illegal area or after returning to Beijing, she never took the initiative to talk to anyone she knew.
I didn't even congratulate Jiang Zongjim and his team on their successful recognition by the IT Association.
There was silence all the way without saying a word.
She dragged her feet until they separated. Before she left, she stopped the girl wearing a baseball cap who had not rested well after getting off the plane and said hesitantly, "Um...Qiao Nian."
Qiao Nian raised his head and looked at her with his dark eyes, but he was quite cold, with his hands in his pockets and his posture was rather casual.
Tian Jing met the girl's cold eyes and her breathing was slightly choked. After a moment, she put her toes together and gripped the pull ring of the suitcase with her hands. The back of her hands were white from gripping. It was obvious that she was embarrassed and nervous.
However, Qiao Nian didn't say anything, so she could only bite the bullet and endure the embarrassment and continue, "I shouldn't have been like that before I came here. I also heard others talk about you and said some bad things about you, which led to my misunderstanding of you."
After Tian Jing prepared herself mentally, she took a deep breath, suppressed her shame, and looked her in the eye: "I apologize for what happened before!"
After saying this, she felt a lot more relaxed, and the heavy stone that had been weighing on her heart no longer felt so heavy.
She originally thought that the other party was unlikely to be nice to her.
After all, she was the one who flirted first, so even if Qiao Nian didn't give her face at this moment, she had nothing to say.
Who knew that the girl just changed her stance and glanced at her with a calm expression, with no intention of making things difficult for her.
"What did Professor Tian do before?"
Tian Jing was stunned.
Qiao Nian continued: "I don't remember."
This attitude was exactly the same as when they set out from Beijing two or three days ago, slow and casual-sounding.
But a few days ago, she felt disgusted when she heard it, and thought that Qiao Nian was just like what Liang Lu said, not pragmatic at a young age but very good at pretending, and also disrespectful to teachers.
Now change the situation, she hears the same tone again and sees the girl still treating her with the same attitude.
She suddenly felt relieved.
He twitched the corner of his mouth, didn't say anything more, just nodded to the girl, and whispered in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Thank you."
After that, she greeted Jiang Zongjin and said politely, "Then Professor Jiang, I won't disturb your reunion. I'll leave first and go back to the laboratory."
*
Tian Jing didn't want anyone to know that she had apologized to Qiao Nian, so she was the last one to leave and found the right opportunity to say a few words to Qiao Nian alone.
It didn't take her long.
Jiang Li and Jiang Zongjin only saw Tian Jing talking to the girl alone for a few words. They didn't hear clearly. They just saw Tian Jing finish the brief chat, smile at Qiao Nian, and then leave.
