"Beep!"
"The Foreign Periodical Reading Plan task has ended."
On the last day of October, Qiu Xi finally completed the task she had been dragging on for some time.
Next, she would focus on the Century Cup, but before that, she had to finalize matters with the company.
Because November was coming, and from what Uncle Shen said, the people he had arranged, along with Pei Wen, were planning to come to Chongxi City soon.
Now all she had to do was wait. Once things were arranged, she could finally rest for a while.
"Xiao Xi, are you awake? Your phone is ringing."
Just as Qiu Xi was contemplating her plans, her bedside was suddenly patted, and Shen Yan's voice rang out.
"Okay, I'm up."
Qiu Xi's eyes flew open as soon as she heard the voice.
She glanced at the watch on her bed; it was time!
No wonder!
It must be her senior sisters coming to find her for a meeting.
So Qiu Xi immediately threw off the covers and scrambled out of bed. She quickly went to the balcony, splashed water on her face, instantly sobering up, and then ran back, entering her focused state in an instant.
She put on her headphones and clicked on the video call.
"Senior sister, sorry, I slept in a little."
"It's fine, we just got started."
Wu Yan Hua and the others had also just woken up. They had all thought about not keeping anyone waiting, and then initiated the video call.
So, the four people in the video call were all quite bare-faced. Qiu Xi could tell they were all like her, having quickly washed their faces to feel more alert.
"Since everyone is here, let's begin."
If this went smoothly, their thesis would be close to completion.
Qiu Xi nodded, "Mm."
Then, listening to Wu Yan Hua speaking through her headphones, she casually arranged her notebooks and other items, and began to listen intently.
Actually, they had already revised the thesis at their own time. Today's meeting was meant for a final review.
Since Qiu Xi was the one submitting it, everyone had sent their revised versions to Qiu Xi last night. Upon receiving them, Qiu Xi immediately integrated them and sent them to the group chat last night.
All revisions were made according to Teacher Su's requirements, so today's meeting was essentially a mutual learning session. If they could find any minor flaws that they could spot, that would be best, and if not, they could still learn from each other.
"Junior sister, I've refined the literature review based on your part. Are there any issues with the subsequent sections involved?"
One problem that Su Yi Hua had clearly pointed out before was related to the section Lu Qing Yi was responsible for, so she was still a bit nervous now, fearing she hadn't revised it well.
Qiu Xi had already looked at it last night, and in her opinion, it was very fitting.
"Senior sister, there are no issues. I've looked at it, and there's no deviation from what I wanted to express."
"Phew~"
Lu Qing Yi breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good!"
Otherwise, she feared she would have to pull an all-nighter again today and go to work with dark circles under her eyes tomorrow.
"What about mine? Did senior brothers and sisters find anything?"
"No!"
Lu Qing Yi shook her head first.
"Xiao Xi, we genuinely couldn't find anything with yours."
"Mm, no."
"However, I took a look last night and thought we could coordinate some of the things we've written..."
Qiu Xi was visibly stunned after hearing this. She really hadn't considered this before.
Was this the reason why articles needed polishing in the later stages?
After all, it was a complete thesis...
"Senior sister, I really hadn't considered what you said before..."
"It's fine."
Wu Yan Hua smiled and shook her head, "Speaking of which, it's us who have been holding you back."
"Senior sister, you're joking."
Wu Yan Hua smiled, not elaborating further.
The three of them knew this. Especially after seeing this junior sister's thesis a few days ago, they had already recognized the gap.
After all, they weren't new to working on projects with Teacher Su, and they had gained some experience. They could tell.
"Senior sisters, do you still have time?"
"Why don't we go through it now, and then we won't need to find time later."
Qiu Xi glanced at the time. It was still early to go out in the evening, but she wasn't sure if the three of them were free.
Lu Qing Yi was overjoyed, "Yes, we can!"
Even Huo Jin Yu's eyes lit up.
This situation was simply perfect!
They wouldn't have to fumble around on their own after this to solve problems!
If it could really be like this, even if they didn't have time, they would have to squeeze it out!
Just a beat slower, Wu Yan Hua, who heard Lu Qing Yi's words, smiled and nodded.
"We do!"
"It's just going to trouble Xiao Xi."
"No trouble! This way is much more efficient."
"Alright, then let's make the most of our time?"
"Okay!"
With just a few words exchanged, Qiu Xi and the other three began a new round of "research."
Staring at the thesis, they scanned it from beginning to end, each responsible for explaining their own part. Having already read the entire paper beforehand, listening to the author's explanation now made the process incredibly fast.
An hour later, the four of them closed their notebooks and prepared to end the meeting.
"Xiao Xi, you truly are a treasure trove!"
Lu Qing Yi, who had already closed her laptop, couldn't help but exclaim.
Interacting with someone like her, not only was she pleasant to look at, but her abilities were also formidable. It wasn't surprising that Teacher Su had given junior sister a spot so early on when the participants hadn't even been finalized.
If it were her, she would have done the same without hesitation. Such work efficiency was truly likable.
This made her think of her recent internship. If she had such a capable partner, she would surely be smiling even when working overtime.
Qiu Xi had also finished tidying up. Hearing Lu Qing Yi's words, she chuckled softly, "Senior sister, you're exaggerating~"
"Not exaggerating! You deserve it!"
At this moment, Wu Yan Hua and Huo Jin Yu didn't hesitate to nod in agreement.
What Lu Qing Yi said was exactly what they felt!
It was truly a gain to have met a friend like Qiu Xi!
"Since that's the case, I'll accept the compliments from my senior brothers and sisters. I will continue to work hard~"
"Hahahahaha~"
"Good!"
"Then we'll have to trouble junior sister."
She's also a junior sister with very high emotional intelligence.
