Chapter 136: Traces of Boiling Heat
"Sister Xiaoman, then how did you move over?" Xu Shuangchuan pondered the time, "If I hadn't left at that time, I would have helped you." ”
"Thank you, thank you. Bian Yunman said gratefully, "Not this time, I found a boy in the department, he said that he can drive the family's car, door-to-door service, and move all in one trip, and I will pay him." ”
Xu Shuangchuan sneered: "That's pretty good." ”
Bian Yunman glanced at her and smiled herself: "Is it possible not to pay us? But when I get off the train, I have to go, and when I get there, I have to take care of the food, otherwise I can't get over it, where can I get a meal on the first day? ”
Xu Shuangchuan nodded again and again. She ate half of her sandwich, realized she was a little thirsty, and got up to buy juice.
Coincidentally, several people in white shirts were picking up their meals. Xu Shuang descended and found that Matthews was among them.
The two said hello. Matthews turned sideways and asked the classmates behind him to fetch bread first, and smiled at Xu Shuang and asked, "Xu, did you defend your thesis today?"
Xu Shuang descended into the local customs, and her daily outfit was the same as that of the local students, which was extremely simple, changing between different T-shirts and jeans every day, and rarely wearing skirts. Today, people can see at a glance that she has something important, and she smiled and said, "Yes, what about you?"
"I passed the defense in the morning. Matthews took a cup of mushroom soup and put it on his plate.
"Congratulations. Xu Shuangchuan's smile widened, and he was truly envious.
"Thanks, are you done?"
"Not yet, I'm scheduled for the afternoon. ”
"Good luck. Matthews' smile was filled with sincere wishes.
"Thank you. Xu Shuangchuan followed Matthews and took a glass of fresh orange juice.
"Xu, uh...... What are you going to do when you graduate?, are you going back home?" Matthews chitsiped.
"I'm going to stay here for a master's degree, what about you?"
"I got a job. Matthews laughed.
Xu Shuang was stunned for a moment, smiled and said, "It's so good, congratulations." ”
The two paid their bills, with Matthews and his classmates sitting together for dinner, and Xu Shuangchuan returning to his seat with orange juice.
Bian Yunman chatted with her a few more words, stood up and said, "Frost falls, I will have time to play in my new place in the future." ”
"Okay, Sister Xiaoman, you can come back and have a better look. Xu Shuangchuan said with a smile.
She watched Bian Yunman walk out of the restaurant, lowered her eyes, and slowly sipped orange juice. When the orange juice was only at the bottom of the glass, she took out her computer and browsed through her defense presentation.
She has become quite familiar with it, and she can blurt out every sentence she wants to say. But she still sat in the dining room, silently carrying it back and forth.
The diners in the restaurant left one after another, and soon a few people in white shirts walked to the door laughing. Xu Shuang lowered her eyes, Matthews turned her head sideways, and smiled at her table, and she also curled the corners of her mouth and smiled back.
Matthews quickly turned out the door with his classmates, Xu Shuang smiled and stared at the empty doorway, and for a while, he casually turned his head to look at the sky outside the window.
Outside the window, the blue sky is like washing, and it is so bright that it dazzles people's eyes.
The warm noise in the summer is far away, all the birdsong, flowers, and human voices that are stirring in the warm breeze are filtered out by a glass curtain wall, and into the eyes of Xu Shuang, as if the sprouts outside with a blazing breath are quietly dispersed in every trace of air, leaving only a quiet and lofty world.
She could see the traces of boiling heat, but she couldn't burn herself, she sat inside, silently withdrew her gaze, and continued to bow her head in silence.
Xu Shuang's defense went quite smoothly in the afternoon. Her voice was calm and calm, without a hint of trembling.
This was not the case the first time she gave an independent presentation in class. At that time, she was also very well prepared, hiding in her room alone, facing her computer, practicing many times in advance, and she did not forget the words during the formal presentation, but the only bad thing was that her heart was beating faster and faster, so that in the last third of the speech, her voice trembled uncontrollably.
That time he was really trembling, and Xu Shuangchuan himself heard it clearly. The strange thing is that her thinking is still very clear, and she continues to flip through the animation one by one, and persists until the Q&A stage. The classmates and teachers were very face-saving, and with her high-frequency vibrato, she actually listened to the whole process seriously.
The professor was cute, pushed away the stack of materials he had placed in the first row, sat down on the desk, and acted as a moderator for her: "Okay, very impressive presentation, who has a problem?"
The classmates were also very cute, probably not daring to embarrass her, or thinking about how to ask a simple question that would not embarrass her, and the class was silent for a second, and the professor turned around and said briskly, "Oh, then I have a question." ”
In that homework, Xu Shuang got a very good grade. She is quite good at comforting herself, feeling that her psychological quality is not bad to the extreme. And she gave herself a reason, she was nervous at that time, and she didn't go to the point of not choosing what to say, she had questions and answers with teachers and classmates, and her logic was not disordered. Her vibrato is purely a movement disorder of the vocal cord muscles, which is innervated, and she will not be able to control it effectively for a while.
As soon as Xu Shuangchuan attributed the small defect of her trembling voice to the physiological changes in her body, she became much calmer. For example, some people will blush when they drink a small glass of wine, and some people will not change their face when they drink a large glass of wine, which has nothing to do with people's physique and has little to do with people's subjective will. Her body structure is just a threshold line that can easily trigger voice tremors.
The more times she went, the excitement brought by the nervousness was not so fresh, and she slowly couldn't trigger the threshold line in her subsequent public speeches, and her voice was very steady most of the time, only occasionally trembling a little bit. Her innate timbre is quite beautiful, and even if there is a little bit of Douyin at the end of the speech, there is basically no problem.
Today's dissertation defense, the students have changed from loose student clothes to formal clothes, and even the professors who ride to work every day wear ties.
Xu Shuangxia faintly knew the reason, her mind was calm enough, so she was not excited enough, and she was not nervous all over, so she was lucky not to trigger the threshold line.
After the defense, there was a small snack celebration in the department.
The cheese cubes on the skewers were recommended by Ms. Emma and are said to be a very distinctive snack.
"It was very tasty. ”
Xu Shuang took a sip several times, but only tasted a sour taste. (To be continued.) )
