When the two of them sat face to face in a café somewhere outside the school, Shen Xunhan still didn't quite understand what she wanted to talk to herself.

Shu Jiaqi didn't open her mouth from sitting across from her, holding a long stirring spoon in her hand to stir the sugar cubes in the cup that melted in the coffee.

Shen Xunhan could perceive that the only thing she could talk to about was what happened at the engagement banquet that day.

"You're ...... today"

"What happened that day......"

The two of them spoke at the same time, and when they realized it, they were stunned at the same time.

Such a change made the two of them look at each other and smile.

"It was a bit complicated to say that day, and after thinking about it for a few days, I still thought that maybe I was too proud before, and I always felt that I was very talented and worked hard, so I could get a lot of things if I worked hard. It's just that it seems like a lot of things aren't what I thought they were. ”

Her words were a little clueless, and Shen Xunhan was very puzzled when she heard it.

"What's going on?" Or what did she want to say?

"You and Liang Huaiyi before...... Just neighbors? ”

Shen Xunhan was stunned for a moment and nodded: "We were neighbors a long time ago, and when my parents were still there, our two families had a good relationship. It's just a pity that this good relationship has not been maintained until now. When you ask me, I guess you've heard something. ”

Her expression was calm enough to make Shu Jiaqi, who was originally a little nervous, breathe a sigh of relief.

"After the banquet that day, I heard her conversation with a girl when I passed by the neighborhood of Jiaxin, and then, using some methods, I learned from which girl what the farce was going on that day."

Shu Jiaqi subconsciously avoided what "used some methods" meant.

"Girls?"

"Yes, she confessed that she went early that day and heard your conversation with Liang Huaiyi's mother."

Shen Xunhan recalled in her mind what she had said to Mrs. Liang that day, as if she was ...... Nothing special.

"She said that you may ruin the relationship between our fiancée, and Liang Huaiyi's mother said that it is a matter of rights and interests to be engaged to me, and she is even willing to give you a large sum of money to settle this matter, so that you can go to her again if you lack money."

"She has some paranoid tendencies, and she also has a good impression of Liang Huai, so she is very hostile to me and the Shu family, and at the same time I heard the conversation between you and Liang Huaiyi's mother, and you got his mother's love and affirmation, so she also had a dislike for you, so she picked up the brooch dropped by Jiaxin, and designed it to be in your pocket, so that the Shu family and you could fight hard, and the most ideal result was that you lost both the Shu family and me."

"It's just that she didn't expect that the brooch that she put in your coat pocket with her own hands would disappear again. If you are missing, I am also missing. ”

Shu Jiaqi's expression was very calm when she said this, as if she was not talking about her own business.

The arrogance on her original face has also been subdued a lot, and she looks much calmer than before.

"You're calm." Shen Xunhan picked up the coffee in front of him and took a sip gently. The sweet aroma of coffee instantly fills the mouth, making people feel much more sober.

Shu Jiaqi just chuckled: "Otherwise? Even if I used some means, but I think that since that person was able to tell me so easily, he must have thought that after I knew, he would probably come to you to ask for an explanation, and then continue to achieve the goal that I had not been able to achieve before. ”

"She's very smart, and if she wasn't in this class, I'm afraid she'd be a terrible opponent. If she were, she would know what the word 'marriage' really meant. ”

"Who doesn't want love, they can only see what we get, but what we give, no one cares at all." Shu Jiaqi said, raising her head and meeting Shen Xunhan's eyes: "I admit that I was actually very wary and jealous of you when I first met you. You must know that I have been held by people for a long time, and my study, career, and family are almost all winners in life, until I met you. ”

"If it weren't for my good psychological quality and meeting someone like you who can crush me in all aspects, then I would definitely hate you so much. I can't compare to you in study, I can't compare to you in research, and even my marriage partner has a great affection for you, and I feel like I'm your reference. ”

For a moment, she really understood why Zhou Yu sighed when he was dying.

Shen Xunhan listened quietly, knowing that it would be better to let her vent her emotions at this time.

"But from another point of view, I envy you again. This time of getting along makes me feel that I still know a little bit about you, and with such a boyfriend, you probably don't look down on Liang Huaiyi. There's no need to steal that brooch, and you probably don't see the value of it. As for me......"

She paused, as if searching for the right adjective.

"I'm not saying this to admit that I can't compare to you in my life, I'm still young, and the future is uncertain. I found the opportunity to do an internship in a lab, and I didn't want to give up so easily. Maybe we'll have more opportunities to compete together in the future, and I won't lose to you every time. ”

After being silent for a moment, Shu Jiaqi said this, as if the whole person was shining again.

This appearance reminded Shen Xunhan of the first time he saw her, and the arrogant eldest lady was full of confidence. Although such a girl is full of distance, she also exudes light.

"You don't have to compare yourself to me, but if you do, I'll accept your challenge." Shen Xunhan smiled.

She knows that for Shu Jiaqi, the greatest respect for her is to put her on the same level as herself, this girl's arrogance makes it difficult for her to bow her head, and today's words are probably her greatest sincerity.

"That brooch is a token representing the Shu family, and we must find it." Shu Jiaqi looked into her eyes and said.

"It's not with me, but I don't think anyone would be so bold as to steal and sell something like that." Shen Xunhan said calmly.

Seeing that there was no splash in her temptation, Shu Jiaqi didn't care, she didn't plan to find the brooch from Shen Xunhan.

"If you really took the Liang family's money...... Liang Huaiyi's mother...... Probably won't let your money go down the drain. ”

"Don't worry, I know exactly what she's calculating for me. Being a businessman is nothing more than an exchange of interests. If you want to get greater benefits, you must be willing to pay the corresponding chips. However, the premise is that you need to know how many chips you have. Liang Huaiyi is a little indecisive sometimes, and he doesn't have much trouble with his own ability, if he can avoid his mother's calculations, your marriage is not a loss. ”

"Who knows what the future holds?"

Maybe it's because these things have been said that the atmosphere between the two has improved a lot.

This change was felt by everyone else in the lab in the afternoon.

I thought there would be some kind of estrangement between these two people, but who knows how their relationship seems to be better?

Is there something going on that they don't know about?

Cao Weiran quietly pestled Du Youlan, who was also in a state of eating melons, with his arm: "Alas, what do you say is their current situation?" ”

"How do I know? But since it's a good thing, it's useless to know so much, it's easy to be killed! ”

Professor Su, who had come to teach them the same change, naturally felt it.

While they were sorting out the information outside, they quietly pulled someone to ask if they knew what was going on, but of course no one knew.

"By the way, good news for you!"

As he was leaving, Professor Su turned to a few people in the room with a smile on his face.

"What's the good news?"

"Professor, you're going to invite us to dinner?"

"You know how to eat, what else do you know?"

"I'll just tell me what's wrong?"

Shen Xunhan listened to them helplessly, and sighed in his heart that their personalities were really lively.

"Half a year later, the Slais International Biology Competition will begin, and the winners will not only be eligible to publish papers in three major scientific journals, but also have the opportunity to go to the Institute of Biological Research of Country M for three months. If you can go there, you should have more opportunities to see the outside world. Professor Su said with a smile.

"So Professor, you mean we participate?" Cao Weiran asked with some excitement.

The Slier International Biology Competition is held every two years and is one of the top biology competitions in the world. Contestants sign up in the name of the country and are selected by the state, so those who can participate are the best talents of the country.

In recent years, Huaxia has paid more and more attention to biological research, and the number of places to participate in each competition has been full, but it has not been able to win the highest award in recent years.

This is not to say that the overall level of biology in Huaxia is not good, but that there is an age limit for participants, and people over 30 years old cannot participate in this award.

Because of its very high gold content, everyone present was dazzled when Professor Su mentioned this.

But then I was a little skeptical of myself.

They...... Can I participate?

"What about the experimental projects we are working on right now? It shouldn't be over by that time, and I heard that there will be a closed training camp before this competition. Shen Xunhan was the first to ask her question.

It's also important to work on projects now, and if you put them on hold, you might even have to start all over again.

"Don't be so sure of what you say, it seems that you can be selected to participate, and you can get a prize after participating. The specific quota can be determined only after the training camp. I've calculated that at that point, the rest of the calculations can be transferred to another group first, and you may not be able to participate in the full amount, and if you want to participate, it means that you will have to work at least twice as hard as others. ”

Professor Su felt that they were thinking a little too much, and couldn't help but shake his head.

"What I gave you this time is the opportunity to participate in the selection, and the rest is up to you."

Zhao Meng was the first to reply excitedly: "I'm already very happy to have this opportunity!" Whether it works or not, you have to give it a try. Professor, we love you~"

Professor Su shook his head and laughed after hearing this, it would be good to think like this.

Compared with the excitement of several people, Shen Xunhan seemed a little silent.

When Professor Su found out, he called her out alone.

"What's wrong? Among the people who participated in this year's selection, I am most optimistic about you. ”

"I ...... A little worried. "Her interest wasn't high.

"Because of what?"

"Actually...... The doctor advised me to take a break from school, but I didn't agree. This is a great opportunity, at least enough to get me hooked. But ......"

She has not lost sight of her goals.

What she did was not to make a name for herself in this field and win the biggest awards. It's about trying as much as she can in her limited life and leaving something for the world.

In fact, her energy is far less vigorous than that of several of them, and it is difficult to do many things at the same time.

Therefore, in the face of such an opportunity, her first reaction was not to participate in winning the award, but to think about her own possibilities.

"Take a leave of absence?" Professor Su's expression suddenly became a lot more serious: "You have never mentioned this to me before, is there a problem with the recent examination results?" Isn't there too much work being given to you now? Otherwise, I'll let ......"

"No, I've always had it in my heart." Shen Xunhan hurriedly reassured.

Her intention wasn't to scare people.

"Last time I had a follow-up, the doctor said that the data was starting to improve, and this was the first time in so many years...... Shen Xunhan said, until now she still feels a little incredible, so she can't take it for granted that it will always be the same in the future.

"Better...... It's true? Professor Su's eyes widened.

They have known each other for many years, so she clearly knows that Shen Xunhan's physical problems are difficult to solve, and it is a miracle that she can even maintain such a healthy state until now.

Because of this, she also knows what the improvement in data means for Shen Xunhan.

"Your physical condition...... Yes, it's probably because you've been in a good state these days, and the number of days off has decreased a lot, so I forgot about it directly......" Professor Su paused, raised his eyes and asked, "So, you are struggling." You still want to go, don't you? ”

She suddenly regretted saying this in front of Shen Xunhan.

"I want to think again."

"From my point of view, nothing is more important than your physical condition. If you are really sure that you want to participate, the follow-up medical examination report must be all within the passing range. ”

"Okay."

"You kid too, don't tell me if you have physical problems, and don't tell me when you get better!"

"I didn't mean to, I'm just not sure ......"

……

After returning home, Shen Xunhan took out the report sheet of the previous inspection and looked at it for a long time, and his eyes unconsciously turned to his mobile phone.

It's been a few days since she gave him a blood sample, and they've been in touch for a few days, but never mentioned anything about her tests.

Maybe after a long time, the apprehension at the beginning has faded a lot.

To this day, she suddenly wanted to ask.

If there is a way for her physical illness to be placed with them, does it mean that she will have more possibilities in the future?

If so, is it impossible not to count the matches between them?
