Dinner runs through the life of every Chinese person.

When I was in school, I had to deal with the concern from the seven aunts and eight aunts about my grades at the dinner.

I finally entered the society and thought about getting rid of the greetings of my relatives, but I didn't expect that the dinner I had to face became more and the situation became more complicated.

What promotions and salary increases, what entrusts people to do things, what contacts and feelings, and even breakups are inevitably a game.

It seems that only at the dinner table, what you can't say can be said, and what can't be done can be done immediately.

After 7 o'clock in the evening, the dinner that Lin Ding had forcibly saved finally kicked off in the club's No. 1 box.

There were a lot of people in the afternoon, and there were five people in the afternoon, including Qian Yi, Xin Qing, Guan Lan, Zhao Lei and Xi Tao.

Eight people sat around the big round table, and Zhao Lei and Xi Tao played the role of waiters, after all, most of the people in this box could not be recognized by outsiders.

Xi Tao and Zhao Lei used a wine dispenser to fill the arranged three-coin cups with Fenjiu, and after serving it to the table, they retreated to the door.

Lin Dingqiang couldn't help but stand up in a cliché, raised his glass and said, "Seniors, prepare a little thin wine, and look at Haihan." ”

Guan Nushan looked at the dishes on the table and knew that Lin Dingqiang had put a lot of thought into this meal, "Xiaolin, sit." Everyone is not an outsider, eat a common meal, and there is no need to be so restrained. ”

Meals are often eaten not by the dishes, but by the pattern inside.

After several people toasted together, Xin Qing, who was deliberately sitting next to Hu Shu, added another glass of wine to the other party, and said politely: "Ms. Hu, I respect you first." ”

Hu Shu looked at Xin Qing with a smile, "Miss Xin, although we are meeting for the first time, your investigation report really makes my eyes shine. It's rare for you to be able to write such a three-point report at your age. ”

Xin Qing said humbly: "This person is not my credit alone. An effective team is the key to the success of this report. ”

"Old money, look at it. Hu Shu exclaimed: "How about the candidate I found for you?"

Xin Qing already knew Hu Shu's arrangement on the way here, and she even had an expectation for entering the campus as a teacher.

According to Lin Dingqiang's analysis, it may be that the list of garbage classification door-to-door service makes Xin Qing's heart very unhappy, and the domestic workplace environment still has to consider the factor of human feelings, which also makes Xin Qing, who has been living overseas, a little uncomfortable.

And compared to the professional life of looking beautiful on the outside but actually looking at other people's faces, the relatively simple ivory tower may allow Xin Qing to regain her happy mood and find a new job that can plan for the long term.

"Miss Xin is young and not only has excellent professional knowledge, but also has a lot of experience. Qian Yi also said: "What is even more commendable is that if you don't take credit for yourself, if this heart can be used to teach and educate people, I think you will be able to teach many outstanding students." ”

Xin Qing is also a person who has seen big scenes, and in the face of the praise of the two seniors, she still maintains her usual elegance, "Dean Qian has a good reputation." When I was an exchange student at the University of California, Berkeley, I had the privilege of seeing the video footage you left behind at the university. And your insights on the two-track liberalization of the Pareto economy have been very enlightening and beneficial. ”

Qian Yi was once again impressed by this little girl after hearing that Xin Qing could accurately say the course topics he taught when he was teaching abroad and the extremely niche academic research topics.

"Miss Xin is such a studious person. Qian Yi smiled: "I even looked at the old courses from so many years ago." ”

"Time may pass easily, but the truth in it will guide those who come after it to move forward. Xin Qing responded unhurriedly: "Just like the motto of your school - unremitting self-improvement and virtue, it has led countless subsequent students to climb the peak of academics." ”

The art of speaking at the dinner was vividly reflected in Xin Qing's mouth, first using his own experience to shorten the distance with Qian Yi, and then showing that he had read his works, coupled with his attitude of neither humility nor arrogance, and elegant temperament, which instantly revitalized the dinner.

"Old money, how about my niece?" Guan Nushan saw that the time was almost up, and hurriedly added a fire, "Can I go to your courtyard?"

Qian Yi smiled and expressed his concerns, "Although teaching and educating people is an ordinary and great career, the salary is definitely not as good as that of outside companies." I wonder what Miss Xin wants to be paid?"

Xin Qing replied calmly: "I haven't been in an academy, so I don't know the rules inside." But I believe that Dean Qian will be able to give you a satisfactory figure for both of us. ”

"Hahaha, you girl!" Guan Nushan saw Xin Qing smoothly countering Qian Yi's army, and said jokingly: "Old Qian! Look at it! This era is still young! You and I will drink bars!"

Qian Yi didn't expect Xin Qing to say this, and after drinking with Guan Nushan, he said with a smile: "Miss Xin, according to the constitution of our school, if you are willing to come to our school to serve, I can give you the treatment of a lecturer." ”

Guan Nushan seemed to be fighting for the rights and interests of his daughter, and waved his hand again and again, "Lecturer, it's too small!"

Qian Yi continued: "But before I came, I also read your information. You have published papers in core journals on your own, and you also have rich practical investment experience, plus you are proficient in foreign languages, and you are a member of the Overseas Returnee Program. Therefore, what I can offer you is an associate professor at the School of Management and Economics. ”

Xin Qing was already very satisfied with the title of lecturer, but she didn't expect that after just a few words, Qingyun went straight to another level.

"Associate professor?" Guan Nushan thought for a while, and then said: "Girl, you must work hard!

As soon as these words came out, Qian Yi's curiosity was aroused, "Miss Xin, who is your father?"

"Xin Wenhua. ”

As soon as Qian Yi heard this name, he patted his thigh, "Lao Guan! You are not kind! You said that she was Xin Wenhua's daughter! I have been investigating for a long time!"

"Isn't this a regular procedure?!" Guan Nushan quipped: "You can't go through the back door!"

Xin Qing asked curiously, "Dean Qian, do you know my father?"

"Of course! It turns out that when he was in the Academy of Fine Arts, I often played chess with him!" Qian Yi recalled: "Later, after he went to Yangcheng, he broke off contact. ”

Lin Dingqiang remembered what Xin Qing once said, the reason why Xin Wenhua left Beijing was because of the problem of professional title, but he didn't expect Xin Qing to shorten this road that was not easy to walk, and the starting point was many years beyond ordinary people.

"Then next time you must learn from your father again!" Xin Qing quipped: "His chess skills have improved a lot!"

"No problem!"

......

After dinner, several people were very satisfied with today's meal.

Guan Nushan pulled Huang Lechi, who had finished work, to drink, and praised his cooking skills.

And after Zhao Lei sent Qian Yi, Hu Shu and others away, she returned to Xin Qing's side and said with a depressed face: "Sister-in-law, you went to be a professor, so what happened to me?"
