After the last exam, Liu Xinyu followed her sisters to the dormitory, and the official holiday will begin tomorrow, and the sisters in the dormitory are preparing to go home for the New Year.

Hu Xuemei asked Liu Xinyu while stuffing the bedding into the cabinet: "You bought a ticket for the day after tomorrow, do you want to go to my house tomorrow?" ”

Liu Xinyu was about to shake his head, but Fang Jizhen, who had been caught by the chairman of the department's student union, hurriedly came in from outside, pointed at Liu Xinyu and said, "Fortunately, you didn't leave, hurry up and go to the department chair's office, the director will look for you." ”

Liu Xinyu pointed at himself and said reluctantly: "The director is looking for me?" It's going to be a holiday, what are you looking for me! ”

She really bought a train ticket to go back to Wuxian the day after tomorrow, don't have any temporary urgent tasks, it's not easy to buy tickets for the upcoming New Year!

Fang Jizhen came over and pushed Liu Xinyu out of the dormitory and said, "You ask me, who do I ask!" I only know that the director is looking for you, go quickly, don't make the director wait for a long time! ”

Well, then go check it out!

Riding a bicycle to the teaching building where the Department of Spanish is located, Liu Xinyu parked the car and pedaled upstairs.

The department head's office was hidden, Liu Xinyu knocked lightly on the door twice, heard a "come in" from inside, pushed the door in, and found that there was not only the head of the department inside, but also two old professors in the department.

"Come on, come on, come and sit here." The head of the department gestured to the only empty chair in the office.

Liu Xinyu pressed the doubts in his heart, sat down on the chair, looked at the head of the department with a smile, and waited for him to reveal the mystery.

The head of the department didn't let Liu Xinyu wait too long, and after glancing at the two old professors, he asked straight to the point: "Liu Xinyu, with your level, there is very limited room for improvement in continuing undergraduate studies step by step, have you considered going to graduate school in advance?" ”

Naturally, she had considered going to graduate school, but she really didn't dare to think about it in advance, and it was two years in advance.

Since the head of the department mentioned it, there must be such an intention in the department, so should you go to graduate school in advance?

Liu Xinyu was racing in her mind, and the corners of her eyes were also observing the three elders in the office, and she found that their eyes contained a lot of expectations.

It can be seen that the head of the department very much hopes that he can agree to go to graduate school in advance.

The two old professors should not be the mentors specially selected by the department for themselves.

These two old professors, Liu Xinyu knows each other, are both well-known scholars at Beijing University, and they are old returnees who have studied in the UK for many years.

After two years of study experience at Beijing University, Liu Xinyu knows very well that the sentence said by the head of the department that "there is very limited room for improvement in continuing undergraduate study step by step" is very pertinent.

She did consider the opportunity to study abroad at public expense after graduating from her bachelor's degree, and did not plan to pursue graduate studies in China.

Now that the head of the department is talking to her about graduate school in person, Liu Xinyu is really hesitant in her heart.

Since I don't want to go against my will, I feel that I can't live up to the love of a few elders.

It's really hard!

The head of the department didn't know what Liu Xinyu was hesitating, so he pointed to the two old professors and said: "Here's the thing, Professor Zeng and Professor Lin have a classmate who is now a well-known professor in the English Department of the University of Edin in the United Kingdom, and he has a place for master's and doctoral studies. ”

Liu Xinyu's eyes lit up, if this is the case, it is a great thing.

But pie will not fall from the sky, there must be conditions in the department.

Liu Xinyu looked at the head of the department quietly, and sure enough, the head of the department continued: "But there is one condition, that is, you must return to the school to teach after completing your studies." ”

Although Liu Xinyu has the experience of being a teacher and has the patience to be a teacher, she has never thought of being a teacher for the rest of her life.

She hopes to have a more challenging or exciting job in the future.

For example, as a foreign correspondent, for example, to work as an accompanying interpreter in a foreign affairs department, or even to work in an embassy or consulate abroad......

Seeing that the light in Liu Xinyu's eyes gradually faded, the head of the department already understood in his heart that Liu Xinyu was afraid that he was not willing to return to school to be a teacher.

Oops, what's wrong with going back to Beijing University to be a teacher!

Maybe the salary is not too high, but the social status is not low.

Besides, which of the teachers in the Department of Western Languages of Beijing University only lives on dead salaries, that is, Liu Xinyu himself is just a student, and he often has extra money.

How can this kid be so brainless!

The head of the department kept complaining about Liu Xinyu in his heart, but he was kind on the surface.

The two old professors looked slightly unpleasant.

Although they are indeed very optimistic about Liu Xinyu, Liu Xinyu obviously doesn't give them face now.

This opportunity was not as simple as the head of the department said, and it took a lot of effort to get Federman to agree to leave this master's and doctoral place for them.

"Well, you go back and think about it, and give me an answer by ten o'clock tomorrow morning." The head of the department didn't want to push Liu Xinyu too quickly, and he didn't want Liu Xinyu to leave a bad impression in the hearts of the two old professors, so he sighed for a moment and asked Liu Xinyu to go back and think about it again.

Liu Xinyu left the dean's office in a bit of a daze, and did not go back to the dormitory, but rode a bicycle directly back to Changchun Lane.

Sitting silently in the room and thinking about it for a long time, until Fang Jizhen came over uneasily, he still didn't decide.

Fang Jizhen listened to Liu Xinyu's explanation, hugged Liu Xinyu and laughed and danced, more excited and excited than Liu Xinyu: "University of Edinburgh master's and doctoral studies? Xinyu, you're so good! Such an opportunity is absolutely once-in-a-lifetime, and it actually falls on your head! By the way, when to go, it won't be right away! ”

At the mention of leaving, Fang Jizhen suddenly wilted.

There are a total of seven sisters in the dormitory, and Liu Xinyu has the best relationship with her, and even takes her with her to make extra money!

Liu Xinyu will have to leave for at least four or five years, and when she comes back, she doesn't know where she is.

The more she thought about it, the more depressed she became, Fang Jizhen's eyes couldn't help but turn red, and tears flowed down her eyes.

"Oh, my sister Jizhen, why are you crying! I haven't promised the director yet! Even if I agreed, I didn't say that I would leave immediately, even if I went to the UK, wouldn't we still be able to communicate and make phone calls! Liu Xinyu was taken aback by Fang Jizhen, and hurriedly wiped her tears, incoherently comforting and persuading.

Although he was reluctant to part with Liu Xinyu, but when he heard that Liu Xinyu didn't agree, Fang Jizhen suddenly raised his eyebrows, glared at Liu Xinyu angrily and said, "This is a big good thing, you actually take Qiao!" What the hell is going on in your head?! ”

Liu Xinyu said the conditions proposed by the head of the department, and Fang Jizhen silently glanced at Liu Xinyu and stopped talking.

They imagined the future more than once, Liu Xinyu's imagination of the future is changeable, but there is no profession as a teacher.
