On the Blue Clouds (2)

Perhaps at that time Fang Jisu had already expected that this matter would not be good.

It was at that time that I contacted Hayes and said that she was coming to the east bank to attend a meeting, and Cheng Shanshan was also coming, so why don't you all get together when you have time. They have overlapped Chinese doctoral students in recent years, and now they are still in the tri-state area, and there are several more. Only he and Wen Xin remain in the school. It was rare for Hayes to come to the east, so he was trying to get a party together.

Fang Jisu went to find him for lunch. A Thai restaurant on West 107th Street. Fang Jisu wanted to discuss it with him. People came all the way, they could be the host, and the restaurant would be more suitable, so there was no need to arrange any more itinerary. In particular, Cheng Shanshan has achieved this level in the industry, like the light of the Chinese. If she can come to the school to match her, it will be an achievement.

Wen Xin just lowered his head to eat his green curry, muttered to himself, "It's so spicy", and then waved and ordered a cup of Thai milk tea. Suddenly smiled, "I won't participate in this kind of activity."

"how……"

Wen Xin Shi Shiran, "It's bad, what's there to say."

Fang Jisu graduated a year early, got married and moved to the UK. George Nishimura hurried back to the United States for his funeral. What happened is only a few words and kept a secret. In addition, I only know that Wen Xin was in Lin Yili's laboratory after graduation.

There are no tenure positions like Wen Xin, a research scientist, research fellow, but - in their words, senior thousand elders. Fang Jisu still remembered that Nishimura valued Wen Xin when he was there. He didn't need to spend time here in Lin Yili. But it took more than ten years.

Fang Jisu stopped for a while. Wen Xin is so calm, but it shows that he is diligent and tacky, regardless of whether it is strong or light, at least Wen Xin is not someone who talks about such things like matchmaking. Yin said, "How about meeting Xiang Hayes? I remember that you have a good relationship."

Wen Xin blinked his eyes slowly, but did not speak. Fang Jisu knew that what he said was superfluous. Since they have a good relationship and they have their own connections, why should he make arrangements? Facing Wen Xin, he probably subconsciously looked down on him, and he always wanted to take care of something for him, which was arrogant.

It stands to reason that the flow of people is a common thing, but it is not common for Lin Yili to be involved in ordinary things. Before leaving I University, there was already a rumor, "Erin Lin forced another one away, so you're still going?" It turned out to be a happy expression.

The fact is that there are as many people knocking bowls and waiting to see the play. Of course, outsiders are happy to talk about it, but maybe they don't feel it when they are in it. Just in time for the Mid-Autumn Festival, Fang Jisu brought moon cakes for everyone to eat. Taking the food gag has always been a surprisingly effective method. He also knows the goods. Wang Yao exclaimed when he saw it, "The milky Huangyue of Jialin Building! How did you buy it here?" "It was sent here."

Take it apart and pick it up in the tea room, and Fang Jisu personally delivered it to him from Lin Yili. "Oh, today is the Mid-Autumn Festival?" Lin Yili stretched out his hand and took one, "I don't even know." - He is not a Chinese festival, so it would be strange to know. "It's a festival, but it's just looking for a chance to eat," Fang Jisu had never entered Lin Yili's office, when he saw an old photo on the bookshelf by the door. It was a photo of him and George Nishimura. It wasn't too late. Both of them looked very young, Lin Yili was sitting at the table with his head down, Nishimura was leaning down and talking to him, a natural picture of life. Fang Jisu stared at the photos, but forgot to speak. Lin Yili followed his gaze, his expression darkened, he bit his lip nervously, and was about to speak, when Fang Jisu stopped him, "The two pictures of Jess may still be the same. I have to ask you to take a look, although I don't think it's a problem."

Lin Yili said "oh" and Fang Jisu took the opportunity to come out. It was already a very lively scene in the tea room. They were all sitting and standing chatting. Ben was half-jokingly testing a theorem on the whiteboard with the eraser in one hand. Wen Xin was making coffee. Seeing him coming over, he asked casually, "Do you want coffee?" Wang Yao stepped out again, and glanced at the moon cake box with his head, "Ah, did everyone take one piece?" "Eat another." She puffed out her cheeks, "No need." Unwilling to look at it again, she said to herself, "Actually, it's almost enough to keep two for him." "For whom?" Wen Xin handed him coffee, "Erin likes sweets." He said to secretary Alisa, "Send it to him." He went straight to the cabinet and took out a porcelain saucer, and took apart one of the remaining ones. , put it in the microwave for 20 seconds, the milk yellow moon is going to be baked to taste better. Fang Jisu laughed, thinking that what was going on here, even the little girl Wang Yao had to let him. Seeing that Wen Xin took out another knife and cut the mooncake into four small pieces, even the fork was ready. Before he could be sent in, Lin Yili came out by himself. Alisa returned her hand and handed him the moon cake, "Leave it for me?" She smiled until her eyes were crescents, but she was a little shy like a child, and she didn't forget to thank Fang Jisu, "Thank you. This is delicious." "This family is very famous." Wang Yao added at the right time, and Lin Yili smiled, "I'll give it to you." After handing a fork to her, Wang Yao opened his mouth and bit it, like a small animal biting and pulling the fork together. Unable to pull it out, Lin Yili covered his mouth with the back of his hand, turned around and bent over with a smile. Seeing him so happy, Fang Jisu couldn't help but smile, but when he looked back at Wen Xin, he didn't know when he had disappeared.

It was past eleven o'clock at night, and everyone was gone, and it was completely silent. Wen Xin hesitated for a while, and finally walked halfway around the corridor to his door, and he was still there.

The fluorescent lamps in the school office were so pale that at night they would make people's faces turn black as if they were poisoned with lead. The one on the top of his office never turned on. Just laughing at him as a vampire - when he was young, it didn't matter if he had a day and night in his spare time, but now he has to go back to sleep after twelve o'clock, and he can't wake up at six thirty in the morning. At this time, he only turned on a floor lamp beside the table, and a very warm halo only floated on him. Ordinary people wear a white shirt alone for 20 minutes and it will become sloppy, he can wear it, and it will be straight and straight all day long - of course, it's just because the things are expensive.

He was facing the computer, beating with his hands, very focused, and didn't notice Wen Xin at all. His typing is actually quite slow, and he always makes mistakes. In the past, he always said that when people type, they wish they could hire four secretaries. Of course, it can't be like this even if we can afford this pomp. Lin Lab has always maintained the scale of a large lab, and there are already many people who have an administrative secretary and a lab manager, which is not pleasing to the eye.

Wen Xin knocked twice on the open door, he just raised his eyes and glanced, "You are still here."

"Erin," Wen Xin rarely called him by name in person. The sentence that is also a bald head on weekdays has no title. "I'm going to M University..."

He raised his body and leaned back, "Oh, I haven't said congratulations yet." He only put on his glasses when he was facing the computer, so he took them off and rubbed his forehead casually.

"It's probably about next month..." I can't wait for a semester, I'd rather spend a lot of time on it. But maybe Wen Xin was still hoping that he could open his mouth to keep a sentence or a half.

"That's good. M University is a good place, and it will help you in your career." In a few words, he smiled as gently and gracefully as usual.

Wen Xin only felt that the cold air penetrated from the back of his neck. Who is this person? Who is this person who casually speaks with him in an official tone?

There is nothing more to say at this point. It wasn't him who came forward. I always thought that he might not know about it, or it was a last resort, but how can I be more affectionate now? Wen Xin could still laugh, "You should also go back to rest earlier." Turn around and leave.

The rustling discussion was getting louder and louder. Others took the story of Chen Zhizhi's rotten millet as an example, and told vividly how Lin Yili drove out David Likert back then. Originally, it was an inexplicable matter, and the age was very early. Only one thing was true. David Likert's departure from C University was indeed the result of his feud with Lin Yili. It's nothing new, it's just a businessman chasing profit and a scholar. At that time, Lin Yili was in his prime, and it seems that he pushed people out. It's just that Likert couldn't even stay on the West Bank and finally had to leave the UK. If it was Lin Yili's responsibility, it would be too much to kill.

Fang Jisu would not believe these words. No matter how powerful Lin Yili is, he can't reach S. Dave Likert is not ignorant. Of course, he is also a very good researcher, but he is more difficult to get along with than Lin Yili. Of course, talking about what happened 20 years ago, even Wen Xin had never seen it, so he didn't say anything casually, but Likert never said anything bad to Lin Yili.

One day, the editor of the school website sent an email to ask Fang Jisu about a visit, and wanted to publish an article on the homepage, which could be regarded as an important person who transferred to C University this year. He admits that he is not an unknown person, but the other party copied Lin Yili when the time was confirmed for the second time. Only then did he realize that it should have been Lin Yili's arrangement from the beginning.

He has always valued this, and he has written two books for the public that sold very well, and some people say that he is not serious. In the afternoon of the same day, he came to Fang Jisu's gate fifteen minutes early to take a look, looked Fang Jisu up and down, but smiled, "It looks good." A black shirt, no tie, and a suit jacket won't collapse anywhere.

Opened an empty seminar room, Fang Jisu didn't expect the other party to do so much homework, he asked very carefully, and after a few words, he turned to Lin Yili. , At the moment, it is natural to tout Lin Yili sincerely.
