The difference between cloud and mud

In the end, Xiao Fengtai was escorted by Jiang Tong to take a taxi back to the hotel.

"Come over with me." Xiao Fengtai still didn't give up, leaning against the car window: "Aren't you afraid that I will sneak away halfway?"

Jiang Tong shook his phone: "This is an online taxi call, I can see your itinerary all the way."

However, Xiao Fengtai's words still managed to arouse his worry, Jiang Tong whispered to the driver: "Master, my... cousin is quite naughty, if he wants to get out of the car midway, you must not agree."

"Please send me a photo when you arrive at your destination, and I will pay you double the fare."

The driver had no grievances with Qian, and nodded his head like garlic.Xiao Fengtai poked his head in the back seat: "What did you say? Who am I?"

"You are my little friend." Jiang Tong smiled and flicked his forehead: "Please don't make any more trouble, I will be very busy for the rest of the summer vacation."

Xiao Fengtai covered his forehead in pain: "Hiss—what is an enemy?"

Jiang Tong coughed dryly, turned his head to hide the blush on his face: "It's getting late, let's go."

"See you in Singapore."

The taxi left in the dust, Xiao Fengtai looked back at the window.The scenery in the distance shrunk and became smaller and gradually blurred in the darkness. Jiang Tong's figure stood motionless until it disappeared.

The summer camp teacher originally reserved a room for him.Xiao Fengtai never mentioned taking back that small bribe, so his return was very smooth.He went back to his room to take a shower, and was connecting to the hotel wifi to play with his tablet when someone knocked on the door.

Probably room service delivered to the wrong place.He didn't pay attention, and continued to play on the computer, but the knock on the door persisted, even getting louder.

"Kenneth, I know you're inside." The familiar sharp girl's voice pierced the eardrum like a small drill: "Don't try to pretend you don't hear it."

Leave her alone, sooner or later the tenants in the entire corridor will go out to watch.Xiao Fengtai couldn't bear it anymore and opened the door: "What are you doing!"

Tiffany was not on the summer camp list, it seems that Xiao Fengtai is not the only one who knows how to make good use of resources.When boarding the plane, he glanced at her and felt ominous in his heart. It was just a fluke. After all, hundreds of students were traveling together, and the activities were full. During the itinerary, she might not be able to notice his absence.

He clearly miscalculated. Tiffany's chest rose and fell violently, her beautiful eyes were wide open, and although she hadn't got her name yet, she already possessed the domineering aura of a royal family.

"Where did you go during the day." She stared into his eyes tightly: "I haven't seen you all day, and I asked the teacher, and the teacher couldn't tell why."

"It has nothing to do with you." Xiao Fengtai wanted to close the door: "Go back and rest early."

However, Tiffany had been prepared for a long time, and a leg was stretched into the room before it was too late.She was only wearing a pair of hot pants, the wooden door was heavy, Xiao Fengtai's inertia was too weak, a red mark immediately appeared on the girl's fair skin.

"What are you doing?" Xiao Fengtai was startled, then turned cold: "Go back quickly."

"I don't!" Tiffany said aggrievedly, "What the hell are you doing sneaking around in Beijing by yourself?"

Tiffany is of Chinese-English mixed race. Her facial features are both soft and beautiful from the East and three-dimensional from the West. I feel pity for her slightly red eyes.However, Xiao Fengtai has already seen through the aggressiveness under her pitiful appearance, and is very annoyed in his heart.

"This has nothing to do with you." He warned: "If you make trouble again, I will ask grandma to bring you back to London."

"Did you go to find Su Lingling?" She ignored Xiao Fengtai, feeling sour for her reasoning: "She is also from Beijing..."

"Since when did you have an affair?" She said anxiously, "You are not worthy at all!"

Xiao Fengtai and Su Lingling are the principal and second violins of the orchestra, and they have no interaction except for rehearsals. Tiffany was separated from her even in grades, but because of Xiao Fengtai, he thoroughly investigated the girl's background.

Xiao Fengtai couldn't bear it anymore: "That's the end of the nonsense." He pushed Tiffany violently, and the girl was caught off guard, so there was no match for him.She staggered, and the door slammed shut in front of her.

In the dead of night, the corridor was empty. Tiffany stood there blankly, crying with anger.Xiao Fengtai clearly left the team, she asked the teacher, but the teacher just covered it up vaguely.She was worried and worried all day, waiting in the hotel lobby for half the night, finally Xiao Fengtai came back, but she looked so indifferent.

Although she is young, she almost never fails in the relationship between men and women.It was only him who shamed her time and time again.

He must be hiding something from her.When returning to the room, Tiffany thought bitterly.Sooner or later, she was bound to find out his secret.

Let's see if he dares to put a coffin face on her!

Chen Qiyu Professor Chen is an expert introduced back to his alma mater through the Thousand Talents Program, Gen Hongmiaozheng drank a stomach full of foreign ink, and is very popular with the school leaders.In the past few years, he has led his doctoral students to publish several important papers in international first-line journals, which can be regarded as a signboard for the laboratory.Although Jiang Tong entered the laboratory through the relationship in Singapore, Jiang Tong did not receive special treatment, but was under the unified jurisdiction of two postdoctoral fellows like other students who were serious about submitting their resumes for interviews.

After all, it is only a part-time job during the summer vacation, and the work that college students can do is nothing more than searching for data and swiping test tubes, and at most helping to run glue.Jiang Tong was not familiar with the place, and had a natural disadvantage in interpersonal relationship compared with the summer job at the school. He could only start from scratch, and it seemed to be back to the state of entering the laboratory in Singapore for a while.

Responsible for leading his postdoctoral fellows to follow Chen Qiyu from the master's degree, the old doctor who went up to the fourth year of the laboratory to the children who just entered the door, all have to be called "senior sister".The senior sister skipped a grade to go to university and graduated as a graduate student at the speed of light. She is young and has a baby face. She looks younger than many juniors.Maybe she is worried about her lack of prestige, but the baby-faced senior sister is usually unsmiling. Not only does she do things vigorously, but she also has extremely high demands on her subordinates.It can be said that he is strict with himself and even more strict with others.

Just as Jiang Tong learned that he was assigned to his senior sister, a junior undergraduate student who was familiar with the laboratory situation invited him to the cafeteria to eat steamed stuffed buns.He smiled and refused without saying anything.

In fact, although the senior sister looks serious, she is actually very fair and kind.Jiang Tong used the eighteen skills he had developed in Singapore, and always finished the work at hand quickly and well.On the surface, the senior sister was stingy with praising him, but quietly handed over to him the work of experimental analysis and design that undergraduates seldom get involved in.

The more things I learned, the longer the working hours.Jiang Tong lives in the school anyway, and has no resistance to working overtime. Instead, he took advantage of the opportunity to work overtime and eat supper with his senior sister, and learned a lot about the progress of cutting-edge research in the academic world.

"The hottest targets right now are ras and her-2." They were sitting by the stall, and the senior sister pointed Jiang Shan with a bunch of Mala Tang: "Have you read the paper published by Nature last issue? The second phase of her-2 treatment In breast cancer patients, the progression-free survival is significantly prolonged."

"The response rate is too low." Jiang Tong retorted: "Only about 25% of patients have a positive probability of her-2—of course, there have been few significant breakthroughs in breast cancer treatment in recent years. It has a stimulating effect."

The senior sister turned her head to look at him: "Yes, quite insightful."

Jiang Tong smiled: "At the weekly meeting of the Singapore Professors Association, we arranged for us to share the progress of the industry in turn, and it happened to be my turn last month."

"Don't be humble, I know your ability. Get up early every day and be greedy for me to test my talent." The senior sister smiled: "Work hard, and I will tell the professor later and write you a passionate recommendation letter."

"Foreign universities are better, with rich resources." She sighed: "When we were in college, we didn't know how to read journals and spend time in the laboratory to collect recommendation letters for papers."

"The domestic basic knowledge is taught solidly, and we can't compare with it." Jiang Tong is modest.

"It's all outdated." The senior sister sneered: "Listen to my advice, graduate students must apply to the United States, and they will not return to China until they graduate."

Jiang Tong was stunned.

"That is to say, Mr. Chen has a strong relationship and strength, and our laboratory can't see anything." The senior sister said leisurely: "Look at other labs, it is extremely difficult to apply for funding. Yes. Not to mention the administrative hassles... well, what are you talking about."

"Sometimes I envy you children from rich families." She changed the topic: "You can go out with a bachelor's degree, see a wide range of worlds, and have many choices."

"Are you envious of me?" Jiang Tong repeated in disbelief.

"That's right." The senior sister smiled desolately: "Singapore's annual optical expenses are about [-]. My roommate will go to you to exchange, and the rent and living expenses for a semester are also a lot of money."

"My family can hardly support me to go to college, let alone study in China. It is a pity that domestic academics are all looking west now, and there are still a lot of Ivy League PhDs who have graduated from the thesis. People like us study all the way in China. It is almost impossible for a native blogger to stay in school and work.”

"I don't usually talk about these things with the junior undergraduates in the lab." Seeing Jiang Tong's silence, the senior sister thought he was still digesting, and said earnestly: "I believe in the blood and tears of the senior sisters who came all the way. Apply abroad, don’t come back if you can get tenure. After a few years to accumulate papers, it will be convenient to come back to engage in industry or enter the academic world. It’s best to take the CFA exam when you have time, and make second-hand preparations.”

Jiang Tong didn't explain, and the embarrassment of being misunderstood was fleeting, and was replaced by a more complicated emotion.He remembered talking with Pei Jing in the laboratory late at night, the sparkling eyes of the man when he chatted about the biological signaling pathways and marker proteins he was studying.

"Thank you, senior." Finally he said softly, "I remember."

The next day, he couldn't help mentioning his senior sister in the video with Xiao Fengtai: "I didn't expect the scientific research environment in China to be so bad." Jiang Tong said with emotion: "Compared with Singapore, everyone thinks from a completely different perspective."

"In the final analysis, it is because of money." Xiao Fengtai joked: "Professor Jiang, don't worry, I will contract your expenses in the future."

"Isn't there a building with that kind of name in the university? Your laboratory will be called ftxlab. When you win the Nobel Prize, I will go down in history with you."

"Why do I feel like I was adopted by you?" Jiang Tong suppressed the inexplicable pain in his heart with a joke: "Please first wish me the best of luck in getting the full prize offer."

Xiao Fengtai laughed loudly.He was sitting on the balcony railing, with the blue sea behind him, and the sea breeze messed up his bangs, showing a rare innocence for a boy of the same age.

"I don't wish you to get the offer, I want to save luck for you." He said seriously: "You don't need to be lucky, and you will definitely go to the United States smoothly."
