Shen Zaiqing still had the same opinion, the more anxious Long Xin was to resign, the more it meant that she was avoiding something in her heart.

It is an irrational decision to be too affected by negative emotions and not calm down.

On the other end of the phone, Ji Lian was still waiting for Shen Zaiqing's reply, and hurriedly urged her a few times.

Shen Zaiqing said in a deep voice: "She mentioned this matter to me. I asked her to think about it for a few more days and not to resign impulsively."

"Tong Xue's matter is a hurdle in her heart, and she hasn't crossed it yet."

Ji Lian: "But I talked to Tong Xue, and she didn't mean to blame Long Xin..."

Shen Zaiqing: "Tong Xue taught Long Xin, but Long Xin has a delicate mind, tends to overthink, and is too sensitive."

"Besides, she has high demands on herself, and when something goes wrong, she always blames herself in advance, and when she thinks about it, she is looking for problems on herself. That's how she is."

"So even if Tong Xue doesn't blame her, she still degrades herself in her heart."

Ji Lian: "Then will she really hate and reject this industry because of Tong Xue?"

"She told me very simply today. She just said she didn't like it, so she didn't want to do it anymore."

Shen Zaiqing said: "There will be a little repulsion, but definitely not disgust."

"She didn't choose this industry because she liked it in her heart. She entered this industry because there were not many choices and she was familiar with it."

"But slowly, she got to know her deeply, and she found her own value and mission, and she fell in love with it."

"She had a twinkle in her eye when she told me about the missions she'd been on."

"She may not know it herself, but she can't fool me."

"You all think that I am the most important existence in her life, and she will put me first in everything. But I can see clearly that she is a person with great love in her heart. When urgent tasks come, you know that she will take care of her." Is it easy to charge too much?"

"Drove me out of the car halfway through the car."

"I left before I swallowed the food."

"She told me that she suddenly didn't like this industry, or never liked it, and I really didn't believe it at all."

Ji Lian: "Then she might have some stress reaction?"

"Tong Xue's incident has stimulated her."

Shen Zaiqing's voice slowed down: "It's possible, so I agree with repulsion, not disgust."

"She made this decision, but she didn't really let go of it."

"I'll regret it later."

Ji Lian sighed: "Today she said she was going to resign, I was really at a loss, I was completely confused."

"I think she has a firm attitude, and she was quick to think that she would be transferred to another post, but she didn't agree, because she was determined to leave the SWAT team."

"Oh, I don't want to have anything to do with us."

Shen Zaiqing frowned: "The more this is the case, the more I cannot agree to her leaving."

"The current situation is very similar to what happened nine years ago. Uncle should know about the past between me and Long Xin."

Ji Lian nodded: "Well, I heard from your mother."

Shen Zaiqing: "Nine years ago, she kissed me secretly, and I punched her. It hurt her heart and hurt her. She didn't leave me a word. I didn't figure out what was going on, so she just hid Woke up."

"Hiding from me for seven whole years."

Seven years, when Shen Zaiqing thinks back, she feels pity and heartache. If Long Xin faced it bravely and let them talk and get along well, would the children run away now?

"This mission stung her too, and now she's going into hiding again. I can't sit idly by."

"She is not Xiaolong anymore. She has experienced a lot of things and understood a lot of truths, so she can't be overwhelmed by emotions again."

"Where will her job and position wait for her for the next seven years. When she regrets it and wants to come back, she will have changed a lot."

Ji Lian asked: "Then what should we do now?"

Shen Zaiqing pondered for a while, and said, "How does uncle plan to deal with Long Xin's resignation?"

Ji Lian said urgently, "Of course I won't approve."

"But I am afraid that she will apply again, so I am determined to leave. It can be rejected once, but it cannot be rejected all the time."

Shen Zaiqing said: "You should reject it first, and then arrange some vacation for her, as long as possible."

"Leave the persuasion to me, you don't have to worry."

Ji Lian's heart calmed down a bit: "Okay, you can talk to her carefully, a good seed like her will definitely achieve higher achievements than me in the future, it's a pity to give up now."

Shen Zaiqing: "Yes, I know."

After hanging up Ji Lian's call, Shen Zaiqing stood under the Phoenix tree for 30 seconds, then raised the phone again, and called Long Xin.

She is not in a hurry to talk to her about business, but ask where she is first.

Never hide in a place where even she can't find it.

The call was connected quickly, and Shen Zaiqing did not show any surprise or anxiety, and asked in an unusual tone: "Baby Xiaolong, have you had lunch yet?"

The environment at Long Xin's end was very quiet, without any loud voices: "Not yet, I'm eating watermelon."

Shen Zaiqing: "Eat watermelon? Have you returned home after work?"

There was nothing wrong with Long Xin's voice, and his state was more relaxed than the previous few days: "Well, I just got home not long ago."

"When will the professor finish his work in the afternoon? I'll pick you up."

Still this kind of soft and slightly shy tone.

Shen Zaiqing was in a daze, the two of them seemed to have returned to the state where she was pursuing her a few months ago.

Shen Zaiqing shook his head and was awake for a second.

Listening carefully, she felt that Long Xin's joy and ease were a bit deliberate, not so natural.

"I'm going to the laboratory in the afternoon. This experiment is not so fast, and it may be busy until after five o'clock."

Long Xin: "It's okay, I'll be fine all afternoon. I'll pick you up when you're done."

Shen Zaiqing: "Okay, when the experiment is over, I will send you a WeChat message."

"I'm so hungry, I'm going to eat. You didn't eat anything in the morning, so you can't eat too much watermelon on an empty stomach. Let's go and finish lunch first."

Long Xin: "Okay."

After saying goodbye, Shen Zaiqing hung up the phone, and rubbed his fingers on the screen of the phone a few times, feeling very preoccupied.

Neither is stupid.

She already knew about Long Xin's resignation, but she didn't mention it because she didn't want to attack rashly, and she didn't want to freeze the relationship between the two from the beginning.

Long Xin must have guessed that his uncle would call him, and he already knew that this matter could not be hidden.She didn't bring up the matter of resignation, because she wanted to wait for herself to mention it first, and then see the trick.

Therefore, in the superficially warm conversation, there is actually an undercurrent surging, and the two of them have hidden many small thoughts.

Shen Zaiqing didn't like this feeling.

She hoped that they would soon return to being honest with each other.

The premise is that she has to handle this "disagreement" well.

**

Building 1801, Room [-].

Long Xin, who was sitting cross-legged on the carpet, slowly put down the phone, and sat there for a few minutes before regaining consciousness.

She was next to the tea table, which had a watermelon cut in half with a spoon on it.

Next to the watermelon are her favorite snacks and drinks.

The muted TV is still playing variety shows that can be easily decompressed.

Turn up the voice a bit, and there will be giggling laughter.

Ordered lunch was also delivered right away.

It's her favorite sauce beef and fried broccoli with shrimp.

On the first afternoon after letting go of the burden, Long Xin made everything the way she likes it.

But not as happy as expected.

She feels empty.

This emptiness came very inexplicably.

It also made Long Xin very puzzled.

It is wise to abandon a career that you don't like or is not suitable for.

In the past two years, she has integrated into human society well, so there is no need to worry about her ability.This job is gone, and she can find another stable job.

Due to the limitation of academic qualifications, if there are not many choices, she can still take the college entrance examination.

She can also do scientific research in the future, just like a professor.

She can stand with the professor, be in the same school, go and go back to get off work together every day.

Long Xin planned another path in his mind, a feasible path.

But unfortunately, the pervasive emptiness in her body has not disappeared.

Long Xin clenched his fists, got up and walked towards the sink.

He took a handful of cold water and splashed it on his face.

She comforted herself that she just didn't get used to it now, and it would be fine after a long time.

Now that she can spend more time with the professor, and she will no longer make the professor worry, she should be happy.

She can pick up the professor from get off work at night and still have time to prepare surprises for her.

Long Xin arranged the things to do in the afternoon and evening, and his mind calmed down.

She wiped the water off her face with a towel, walked outside the door, and took down the takeaway hanging on the doorknob.

The takeaway has been hanging here for a while, and the sauced beef and fried broccoli with shrimps inside are cold, so she didn't care, and finished her lunch.

**

When Shen Zaiqing came out of the laboratory, it was already dark.

The experiment failed once, which led to the extension of the experiment time.

Shen Zaiqing was thinking about Long Xin, and when he came out of the laboratory, he took out his mobile phone and sent her a voice message: "Baby Xiaolong, my experiment is over, I just came out of the laboratory."

"It's too late, I'll drive back by myself, you don't come to pick me up."

The voice was sent out, but Long Xin hadn't replied yet, Shen Zaiqing grabbed the phone and walked towards the office, a little anxious.

As soon as she raised her head, two students walked towards her. I don't know if they heard the content of her voice, and the corners of their mouths were holding back their smiles.

"Hello, Teacher Shen." When passing by her, the two students hid their smiles again, pretending that they didn't hear or see anything, and greeted her solemnly.

It's just that the acting skills are too poor, and the more you act, the more you will be exposed.

Shen Zaiqing was not annoyed, and said goodbye to them with a smile: "It's late, let's go to dinner."

"The cafeteria is probably out of food at this point, so I'm going to eat outside."

"We ordered takeout."

"That's good, you've worked hard today."

"Goodbye, Teacher Shen."

"Goodbye."

After the student finished speaking, he walked towards the elevator, and Shen Zaiqing turned his head and walked in the opposite direction.

Her bag was still in the office, and her lab coat had to be put back.

Walking to the door of the office, Shen Zaiqing was stunned for a moment.

In a row of dark offices, only the light in her office was on, but she remembered that she didn't turn on the light before going out.

The door was open, and there were still figures moving inside.

Shen Zaiqing could recognize this person just by looking at her back.

Long Xin was holding a small kettle, slightly bowed, and was watering the flowers on the windowsill.

Xu heard the voice, her head turned around the moment Shen Zaiqing reached the door, and her eyes met.

"professor."

Shen Zaiqing didn't expect Long Xin to appear here suddenly, with a look of surprise on his face: "Why are you here? I even sent a WeChat message asking you not to come pick me up."

No wonder it has been several minutes since the message was sent and there has been no reply.

And the smiles of those two students trying to hold back, not because they heard their own voice, but when they passed by the office, they saw Long Xin.

They obeyed Long Xin and did not destroy this sense of surprise.

"I said I would come to pick you up from get off work, so I must come."

"It's getting dark and you haven't sent me a message, so I know the time is delayed. I'm afraid you'll be hungry, so I brought you some food."

There is a bouquet of flowers and an insulated box on Shen Zaiqing's desk.

Delicious meals and hot soups in the cooler.

Shen Zaiqing took off his lab coat and hung it in a cabinet in the laboratory.

Then he crossed the desk and walked towards Long Xin.

There are not many people in the laboratory building at this point.

Shen Zaiqing doesn't have to worry about being seen.

She walked over, kissed Long Xin on the face, stroked her face, and said softly: "Thank you for coming to pick me up, thank you for preparing these for me."

Long Xin put down the kettle, turned around, faced Shen Zaiqing, and blurted out: "Do you like it?"

Shen Zaiqing was keenly aware that this issue was a bit sensitive.

Her answers are particular, and she has to think carefully before answering.

"I like it very much, but it's good to have such a surprise once in a while, you don't have to do it every day."

There was a flash of disappointment in Long Xin's eyes, which could not escape Shen Zaiqing's eyes.

But all this she did was sincere, not acting.

Lost is lost, we can't let the professor go hungry.

"You're starving, come and eat." Long Xin led Shen Zaiqing to the desk, and pressed her on the computer chair.

Then he opened the insulated box in front of her, and brought out the meals inside one by one.

Shen Zaiqing was really hungry, picked up the chopsticks, and ate with relish.

Long Xin sat opposite her, with a smile on his lips, seeing her eating so deliciously, he was very satisfied.

"Have you eaten yet?"

"Well, I ate some at home."

Long Xin brought her food for more than one person, and Shen Zaiqing couldn't finish it, so he took a pair of disposable chopsticks from the drawer and handed it to Long Xin: "Let's eat together. You brought too much, I can't finish it at all. "

She shared more than half of the rice in the bowl with Long Xin, and stuffed a piece of braised pork into her mouth.

"okay."

There was food in front of them, and the two of them were not in a hurry to go back.

Eat for a while, feed for a while, and finish the last sip of soup, it is already an hour later.

There was a sprig of jasmine in the flowers that Long Xin sent, and after the smell of the food dissipated, the room was filled with the fragrance of jasmine.

Shen Zaiqing liked it very much.

Before leaving the laboratory, she did not forget to bring this bunch of flowers with her.

To drive Shen Zaiqing's car back, Long Xin came to school by bus.

Shen Zaiqing's car was parked under the teaching building, and he had to walk a certain distance to get out from the laboratory building.

The weather has warmed up recently, and Jianghua is not as cold as it was a while ago.

Jianghua University is very quiet at night, the street lights are bright, and there is a gentle breeze blowing. Walking around the campus after eating and drinking is very comfortable.

Some students who had just finished their classes for the evening went to the dormitory building.

They are not walking this way, and they will not intersect with them.

Shen Zaiqing was holding flowers in one hand and Long Xin in the other, deliberately slowing down his pace so that the two hands could hold each other for a longer time.

Shen Zaiqing tilted his head to look at Long Xin, he couldn't move his eyes away, his deep love was all exposed on his face: "Baby Xiaolong, I found that I have really good eyesight."

Long Xin felt a little shy when he heard the professor call himself that.

Lowering her head, she whispered, "My vision is better."

How lucky she is to be a lover with the professor and enjoy the tenderness and love of the professor alone.

She must hold on to the hand she is holding now.

Shen Zaiqing did not break the tranquility and harmony at this moment, allowing the two of them to immerse themselves in the beauty of tenderness like water.

The same is true for Long Xin, who did not intentionally bring up the matter of resignation.

It seems that both parties have a similar premonition, knowing that this matter will cause some unpleasant things in their harmonious love life.

So tacitly don't mention it.

Go back to Building No. [-], back to the familiar home.

The love between the two of them, who was so sticky as if they were about to roll on the bed in the next second, subsided a little.

"I'm going to take a shower."

Shen Zaiqing stayed in the laboratory for most of the day, and her body smelled of experimental medicine. She couldn't bear it, so she had to take a shower quickly.

Long Xin asked: "Do you want some fruit? Shall I wash some strawberries for you?"

"Okay." Shen Zaiqing did not refuse, fruit is the standard for conversation, and she might rely on these strawberries to ease the atmosphere later.

The atmosphere changed slightly, and Long Xin noticed it.

While washing the strawberries, she lost her mind a few times, threw the stems that should have been thrown into the trash can into the bowl, and grabbed the strawberries that should have been put in the bowl into her palms. full.

After washing the strawberries, she heated another glass of milk for the professor and put it on the coffee table.

When these two things were ready, Shen Zaiqing also came out of the bathroom after taking a shower.

She wiped her wet hair, walked to Long Xin's side, and sat down.

"This milk is still warm, I wonder which snail girl made it secretly?" Shen Zaiqing took a sip of the milk as soon as he sat down, looked at Long Xin, and said with a smile.

Long Xin also laughed: "Drink a cup of hot milk before going to bed to help you sleep."

Shen Zaiqing took the opportunity to answer: "Do you still have nightmares these days?"

Long Xin shook his head, trying his best to make his expression relaxed and calm: "I haven't had it for the past two days, maybe I have put down Tong Xue's matter."

Shen Zaiqing stopped going around with her, and asked directly: "Since you let go, why did you insist on resigning? My uncle called me several times in the morning, and he was not willing to let you go."

"I also feel a little rushed, and I shouldn't be in such a hurry."

"Long Xin, I want to know what you think?"

Shen Zaiqing took out a serious tone, and the muscles on Long Xin's face trembled, and he covered it up by lowering his head, and said calmly: "You can make a decision after you think it through."

"I've already thought it over. I really don't love this line of work anymore. If I stay any longer, I might be passive and sabotage my work. This is even worse. I have to resign sooner or later. It's better to be quicker."

"Resign early and plan another path early so that you won't waste time."

Shen Zaiqing looked into Long Xin's eyes and said firmly, "But, I don't believe you don't love her anymore."

"You're lying to me, and you're lying to yourself."

The author has something to say: I tried my best, please allow me to renew in installments.

Return [-] words tonight, and leave [-] words for next time.
