Lord, give up! Madam has too many vests

"Why are you here?"

As soon as Liu Jinnian stepped into the office, he saw Qin Shi sitting on the sofa leisurely drinking tea. His originally gentle expression instantly turned cold and his eyes were full of vigilance.

Qin Shi raised his eyes and looked at Liu Jinnian with an indifferent expression.

"I'm here to see Dr. X."

He came early today.

As one of the important investors of Beijing Medical University, he was respectfully welcomed to this office by the staff as soon as he entered the campus.

But no matter how long he waited, the doctor still didn't show up, which made Qin Shi feel a little annoyed.

"As a candidate, why are you here instead of waiting for the interview?"

Qin Shi said this, stood up, and walked to Liu Jinnian with steady steps.

He was tall and straight, half a head taller than Liu Jinnian. At this moment, he looked down at the other person, feeling very oppressive.

Liu Jinnian was not to be outdone. He held his head high and chest out, looking directly into Qin Shi's eyes.

The two of them just faced each other silently, neither of them spoke, but the air was filled with a strong smell of gunpowder. The tit-for-tat posture made the atmosphere in the entire office drop to freezing point in an instant, as if they could hear each other's intense heartbeats.

Dr. Shan stood aside, watching the tense scene, and coughed lightly, breaking the suffocating silence.

"It's strange. It's already this late. Why hasn't Dr. X come yet?"

"Come out, come out."

Just when the atmosphere in the office was as tense as a fully drawn bowstring, making people almost suffocate, a teacher walked in quickly.

"Dr. X is here?"

Liu Jinnian and Qin Shi turned around at the same time and asked in unison.

There was a hint of anxiety in Liu Jinnian's eyes.

"The interview results are out."

The teacher panted slightly and spoke after calming his breathing.

This sentence instantly broke the tense atmosphere surrounding the topic of Dr. X, and the atmosphere in the office changed.

Liu Jinnian's heart suddenly tightened, and his hands unconsciously clenched into fists. At this moment, his entire mind was occupied by the interview results that he was about to know.

Qin Shi also turned his gaze to the teacher. If he couldn't meet Dr. X, perhaps he should start with Dr. X's students.

That teacher was the main person in charge of this interview.

When Liu Jinnian heard the interview results were in, he was completely surprised. After all, there was still some time before the scheduled interview, and the interview hadn't even officially started yet, yet the results were already out. It really went against common sense.

His mind was in a mess in an instant, all kinds of speculations came to his mind, and his heart seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible hand.

But soon, he remembered that Xiaoxue had looked mysterious before and assured him that he didn't need to worry about the interview at all, because the doctor had already chosen him to be his student.

Now it seems that what Xiaoxue said was actually true.

A huge stone fell from Liu Jinnian's heart, the corners of his mouth rose uncontrollably, and his eyes were full of relief as if a heavy burden had been lifted.

At this time, the corridor outside was already crowded with people.

Yan Lan and Senior Sister Sun were also among them.

"Is the interview result out?"

The candidates who were originally waiting quietly were suddenly in an uproar.

“How is this possible?

The interview hasn’t even started yet!"

Someone shouted at the top of his lungs, and suddenly voices of doubt and exclamation merged into one.

"Lanlan, how come there's already a result before the interview even starts? Could it be..."

Senior Sister Sun's face was filled with nervousness as she grabbed Yan Lan's hand. Yan Lan could clearly feel her palm was cold and trembling slightly. Senior Sister Sun had been working in the medical field for many years and had witnessed many open and secret struggles. She also knew about some of the shady transactions and dark dealings in the academic circle.

Before this interview, she had always had great respect for Dr. X, thinking that this academic leader was a clear stream and would not be involved in those dirty things.

But now, the sudden "interview result" shattered her fantasy in an instant.

She sighed softly, her eyes filled with disappointment and helplessness. She seemed to be hesitant to speak, as if she was lamenting in her heart that it was difficult to find a pure academic paradise in this world anymore.

The candidates around also began to whisper and talk among themselves.

"This is so unfair! We've prepared for so long, is it all in vain?"

"Maybe someone has a complicated background!"

Various words of suspicion and dissatisfaction echoed in the air, and the atmosphere on the scene became increasingly restless.

"Sister, the results haven't been announced yet. Maybe you're the lucky winner." Yan Lan smiled and patted Senior Sister Sun's hand, trying to reassure her. Her smile was bright and warm, and her eyes gleamed with determination and optimism, as if to dispel the gloom surrounding them.

"But, we only recruited one..."

Senior Sister Sun bit her lip, her brows still furrowed, the worry on her face not completely dissipated.

“Some people just don’t have self-awareness.”

Just when Senior Sister Sun was filled with worry, a sudden voice came over.

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw Yan Xue walking towards them with an arrogant step and a mocking look on her face.

She originally wanted to follow Liu Jinnian and Dr. Shan to the office, but her status restricted her, so she had no choice but to wait outside.

Unexpectedly, the interview results came out so quickly, and everything was just as she had dreamed. Liu Jinnian became Dr. X's student without any suspense. In her dream, Dr. X also did not go through the interview process and directly accepted Liu Jinnian.

At this moment, Yan Xue raised her chin, her eyes full of disdain, and glanced back and forth between Senior Sister Sun and Yan Lan, as if she was looking at two losers.

She raised her voice deliberately with a sneer on her lips.

"For some people, no matter how hard they try, it's all in vain. For some people, it's easy to get what they want. That's fate."

Her smug look let Yan Lan know that no matter how hard Yan Lan tried, she could never be as good as her.

At this time, Qin Shi walked over with his hands in his pockets, with his usual indifference on his face.

Liu Jinnian and Dr. Shan walked over together.

As soon as she saw Liu Jinnian, Yan Xue's eyes lit up instantly. She rushed over like a happy little deer, her face full of smiles and her voice was so sweet that it was sickening.

"Brother Jinnian, congratulations!

I knew you would become Dr. X's student. You are so outstanding, you deserve it."

She held Liu Jinnian's arm tightly, leaned forward slightly, her eyes full of joy.

When Senior Sister Sun saw this scene, she sighed, but could only suppress her emotions silently.

Yan Lan stood quietly by the side, his expression calm, but there was a hint of imperceptible sarcasm in his eyes.

"How did you come?"

Qin Shi saw Yan Lan in the crowd at a glance. He looked at Liu Jinnian beside him with some suspicion. Could it be that she was also worried about the results of Liu Jinnian's interview and came here specially?
