[Now] I want to hold your hand tightly

In a private room at Jingnan University Expert Building Hotel, Nie Mi's expression was solemn, and Professor Lin's expression was not much better.Seeing that the position of dean of the Faculty of Liberal Arts is about to be obtained, when the recruitment notice is about to close, Cheng Yaojin suddenly pops up, Nie Mi slams his wine glass angrily, and says angrily: "Brother Lin, tell me the truth Say, did you offend Principal Zhang somewhere?"

Professor Lin squinted at Nie Mi. The other party was angry. He didn't take Nie Mi's accusation to heart. He pressed his index finger on the edge of the wine glass and said in a deep voice, "I thought he wouldn't be able to discover the real truth in this competition for the dean of literature. I didn't expect that Zhang Shouzheng is not an old scholar who is devoted to academics."

"Tsk, brother Lin, no one is easy to get along with if you can sit as the principal of Jingnan University. Why, why..." Nie Mi understood it. It turned out that the allies underestimated the enemy, and he was embarrassed to say too much. It was ugly, so I had to shake my head again and again, and didn't say much about the rest.

Professor Lin forced a smile: "I underestimated the enemy, I thought he would not dare to do this."

"why?"

Professor Lin took a sip of his wine, sat upright and began to analyze the battle situation for Nie Mi: "Although Zhang Shouzheng and Zhao Geyi are not on the same side, there is a Zhou Bo between them. At the beginning, the competition for the dean of the medical school allowed Zhou Bo to take advantage of it." The person is Zhang Shouzheng, Zhou Bo and Zhao Geyi have been friends for many years, that is to say, Zhang Shouzheng has two most powerful deans of Jingnan University to escort him, so it seems that the person Zhang Shouzheng is going to recommend Being dean of the Faculty of Arts is a no-brainer."

When Nie Mi heard the last sentence, his heart trembled. This was exactly what he was worried about now.Before Professor Lin finished speaking, Nie Mi did not interrupt, waiting for Professor Lin to continue.

"However, there is a hidden threat in their solid alliance." When he was talking about this, Professor Lin glanced at Nie Mi, seeing that Nie Mi didn't respond, Professor Lin continued, "Zhou Bo's son, Zhou Jisheng .”

Nie Mi suddenly understood what Professor Lin was going to say.Nie Mi frowned. He had already thought of this move, but he never planned to use it from the beginning.Although he can use all means to get the position of dean of the Faculty of Arts, Nie Mi still has a bottom line in his heart.After all, Zhou Jisheng and Xu Haoran are together because of their true love, and it is too despicable to use the happiness of unrelated people to achieve their own goals.

"No, no, Brother Lin, this is inappropriate." Nie Mi subconsciously wanted to refuse, but Professor Lin snorted coldly.

"Brother Nie, tell me what should I do? Are you willing to admit defeat and give up the position of dean of literature, or give it a go and take the position of dean that you have been thinking about for many years?" Professor Lin glanced at it and lowered his head. Nie Mi, who was struggling with his thoughts, took a sip of the undrinked white wine.

Zhou Bo was Zhang Shouzheng's arm, and taking down Zhou Bo was equivalent to cutting off Zhang Shouzheng's support from Jingnan University School of Medicine, which was beneficial and harmless to Nie Mi and Professor Lin.However, if Zhou Jisheng and Xu Haoran were used to bring down Zhou Bo, then not only Zhou Bo would be ruined, but Zhou Jisheng and Xu Haoran's future might also be ruined.Nie Mi is not so hard-hearted.

"Let's not talk about this for now. The approval rate we won within the Faculty of Arts is 59%. Even if the person recommended by Zhang Shouzheng is extremely good, he and the other two candidates can only be allocated from the approval rate of 41%. We didn't have any influence," Nie Mi said.

Professor Lin laughed contemptuously: "Brother Nie, I never thought you were a pedantic person. Why do you only do simple addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division?"

Nie Mi's expression changed again and again, but at this moment he couldn't think of any better way.

Professor Lin sighed: "People's hearts will change, not to mention that you can be sure that 59% of the people will support you? That person also graduated from Jingnan University, is a student of Zhao Geyi, and Zhang Shouzheng's fellow student. He is already an authority in the academic world before he is 40 years old. Do you think that no one of the 59% will turn to support him? As long as [-]% of the people support him, we have no chance of winning !"

"But... this method is really despicable, we as teachers cannot take advantage of the future of our students." Nie Mi was still unwilling to take this move.

Seeing that Nie Mi was still hesitating, Professor Lin did not press Nie Mi any further. He filled Nie Mi's glass with wine and said disdainfully, "You know Xu Haoran's relationship with Zhou Jisheng, and you still let him walk with my daughter. Together, isn't it despicable?"

Hearing Professor Lin's words, Nie Mi was startled suddenly, he accidentally touched the wine glass, and a pile of wine stains fell on the tablecloth.

"I..." Nie Mi wanted to explain something, but the words got stuck in his throat.

Professor Lin pushed away the chair and stood up. He strode out of the box and closed the door with a bang.People's hearts will change, and Professor Lin's words have been echoing in Nie Mi's mind, lingering.

In early December, it snowed again.The snow came earlier this year, and pedestrians walking in twos and threes holding umbrellas on the street hurriedly.

Xu Haoran followed Lin Yihan into a shopping mall, Lin Yihan was randomly choosing cosmetics at the cosmetics counter, Xu Haoran was bored holding a sip of hot coffee for Lin Yihan, looking around, not in the mood.

"I heard from my dad that your teacher regrets using you a little bit." Lin Yihan said while trying on lipstick while looking at the person reflected in the corner of the mirror.

Xu Haoran glanced at Lin Yihan nonchalantly, not knowing why Lin Yihan said this suddenly.

"Didn't you notice?" Lin Yihan glanced sideways at Xu Haoran who was looking at her, and smiled, "It seems that you and your partner are not getting along too well." Lin Yihan sighed.

When the waiter at the side heard what Lin Yihan said, her face changed. She thought that Lin Yihan and Xu Haoran were a couple, but now it seems that the two reluctantly walked together just to deal with their elders.The waiter had some sympathy for the two men.

Xu Haoran responded silently, Lin Yihan's intuition was always accurate, and the atmosphere between him and Zhou Jisheng had indeed changed.Although the two still lived under the same roof, and Zhou Jisheng would go back to eat, the communication between the two became more and more formulaic.

Lin Yihan handed the selected lip balm to the waiter for packing, and when the waiter left, Lin Yihan said: "Just to remind you, my dad knows about your relationship with Zhou Jisheng, recently a robbed dean was parachuted into your courtyard." The professor at the position, my dad and your mentor are almost done with each other, but they still have a trump card. You'd better tell your partner and let him pay attention."

Xu Haoran raised his head abruptly, staring straight at Lin Yihan with a cold thorn in his gaze.Lin Yihan was frightened by Xu Haoran's gaze, and hurriedly turned her gaze to one side: "Don't look at me like that, you and I have been in this muddy water, so don't think about getting out without getting a little dirt. I also reminded you before, since you want to If you walk this way, you will walk in the open and aboveboard, and you hide it, thinking that you are hiding it well, but in fact, you have been exposed long ago."

Lin Yihan didn't want to say it so badly, she and Xu Haoran were walking the same path, but Xu Haoran's cautiousness and timidity made her really unable to stand it.Zhou Jisheng had a showdown with Zhou Bo a few years ago, otherwise he wouldn't have gone to a small private hospital in Jingnan City to become a doctor. With Zhou Jisheng's grades, he would be able to work in the city's No. [-] Hospital.Zhou Jisheng gave up a lot for Xu Haoran, but as for Xu Haoran, under Zhou Jisheng's protection, he stayed in Jingnan University and became an associate professor as he wished.Xu Haoran has a great reputation, but Zhou Jisheng is unknown. Zhou Jisheng has paid so much for Xu Haoran, but Xu Haoran still shrinks under Zhou Jisheng's wings and does nothing.

"What else can I do now?" Xu Haoran suddenly laughed, and Lin Yihan felt that his smile was sharp and glaring, as desperate and lonely as a person walking on the edge of a cliff with no way out.Xu Haoran's path was blocked by himself, he rejected Zhou Jisheng's request, but now it was too late for him to make it public.

Lin Yihan felt that what she said just now was a bit exaggerated, she took a step closer to Xu Haoran, held Xu Haoran's trembling hands, and encouraged: "I insist on letting the two of you make your relationship public, but you'd better not be reckless at this time, you I also tried to persuade Zhou Jisheng not to do this. When the battle for the dean is settled, no matter who wins or loses, you will make it public. And..." Lin Yihan paused, thinking about whether this sentence should be It should be said, "It's best for you to separate before this, they have no evidence and no evidence, and you will not be used by them."

"Thank you, but I'm afraid that Jisheng won't agree." A while ago, Zhou Jisheng told him that he would disclose their relationship, and there was a estrangement between the two of them because of this matter. Don't make it public for now, wouldn't it add fuel to the fire?

"Are you still hesitating at this moment?" Lin Yihan punched Xu Haoran on the forehead, "Zhou Jisheng treats you so well, don't you have any confidence in him at all?"

"No..." Xu Haoran didn't know how to say to Lin Yihan, "something happened between us recently."

Lin Yihan raised her eyebrows: "If something happens, you won't give in. He treats you so well. If you bow your head and admit your mistake, will he accept it?"

"I'm not wrong!" Xu Haoran blurted out.

Lin Yihan glanced at Xu Haoran thoughtfully, then she turned and left Xu Haoran's side, walked towards the cashier waiter, and took the packaged lipstick by the waiter.

She had already said all she had to say, Lin Yihan didn't care whether Xu Haoran was willing to accept her opinion.

Xu Haoran stood on the spot, his eyes gradually emptied, Lin Yihan's figure became more and more blurred in his sight, and Lin Yihan's big call just now kept reverberating in Xu Haoran's mind.

Why apologize, why? !It was Zhou Jisheng who made that unreasonable request, and he also told Zhou Jisheng himself not to mention the matter of announcing their relationship for the time being.From the time he knew Zhou Jisheng, Zhou Jisheng was like a proud son of heaven. Zhou Jisheng's father was the dean of the medical school of Jingnan University, and his mother was also a scholarly family. Zhou Jisheng's future destiny was determined at birth: entering Beijing Nantah University School of Medicine, undergraduate, master, and Ph.D. graduates to work in the First Hospital of Jingnan University. Many people envy her life trajectory.He, Xu Haoran, studied desperately, and almost couldn't get into Jingnan University. During the four years of university, he attended classes during the day and worked part-time at night to earn money. He was finally admitted to Jingnan University as a graduate student, but he still had to write a thesis for his tutor. Because he annoyed the dean during the defense, he was almost dismissed, and he was even promoted to an associate professor a year later than Zhou Jisheng.Xu Haoran sometimes thinks that if he hadn't been involved in Zhou Jisheng's life, perhaps Zhou Jisheng would not have run away from home, nor would he have become a doctor in a small private hospital, and even had to borrow money to buy a [-]-square-meter house.

Even so, Xu Haoran didn't feel Zhou Jisheng's request to announce their relationship was wrong in his refusal.Zhou Jisheng doesn't need to care, but Xu Haoran must care.
