"An Ran... what did you just say?"
"Say it again..."
It sounded so strange, they were a little disbelieving.
Qin An Ran looked at them and said calmly again, "I said... what do you think if I found Xiao Xi to be my master?"
As she spoke, she winked at them very seriously.
"..."
"Cough cough... An Ran, did you forget to bring your brain out today?" Jiang Qin looked at Qin An Ran suspiciously.
This was not like Qin An Ran at all!
From what she knew of her, it would be good enough if she didn't pester Xiao Xi for advice. Now she wanted to humbly seek to become her disciple?
This was not like Qin An Ran... very unlike her!!!
"Exactly... An Ran, your brain doesn't seem right today..."
"Mm-hmm..."
Lin Yixin and Qiu Xiren next to them also had strange expressions on their faces.
Qin An Ran: ...
Was what she said so outrageous?
!!!
She didn't understand it either, and felt very helpless...
"Just tell me, what do you think of the idea I just proposed?" She no longer expected these unlovable colleagues to look at her normally.
Thinking about it carefully, she hadn't been very good in the past...
Hearing Qin An Ran ask again, Jiang Qin was the first to shake her head, "Not good..."
"If you want to improve, just occasionally learn from and ask Xiao Xi. As for this whole master-disciple thing, you'd better drop it."
"Spare Xiao Xi and don't cause her any more trouble..."
If she were Xiao Xi, hearing Qin An Ran say that, she probably wouldn't want to leave Teacher Xue's office for a while.
Not to mention that Xiao Xi was still young and busy with her studies. If she had to spend time dealing with this "strangely wired" person, her life might be unbearable...
Just hearing her nag every day would be enough...
"Jiang Jie~"
"Don't even think about it!" Seeing her fawning look, Jiang Qin immediately raised her hand to block her, "It's almost time, I need to pack up and get off work."
She thought it was some interesting gossip, but it turned out to be An Ran's boring stuff...
It would be more comfortable to get off work early~
Qin An Ran glanced at them, then turned to Lin Yixin and the others, "Yixin, Xiren~"
"An Ran~ I just remembered something I didn't tell Teacher Xue. I'm going to get busy first..."
"I... am getting off work! I'll go check again!"
As she spoke, she unnaturally flicked her finger, "Well... An Ran, you can just take care of yourself..."
As soon as she finished speaking, Qin An Ran was the only one left standing there foolishly.
"..."
Was what she said that unreliable?
Qin An Ran couldn't figure it out, so she sat there staring blankly at her computer screen.
"..."
"An Ran... Xiao Xi is still young, and she probably doesn't want such an old disciple. You'd better not disturb Xiao Xi's progress..."
As Jiang Qin was about to leave, she couldn't help but pat Qin An Ran's shoulder.
"...Alright..."
If you don't say it, I won't say it. I won't mention it again...
Since she couldn't be a disciple, she would be a little fan!
For the next period of time, she would study hard!
Teacher Xue was right! Xiao Xi was very talented, so she would be thick-skinned!
After thinking this through, Qin An Ran's expression immediately changed, and she happily began to tidy up her workspace.
"..."
"It's fine, let's go, the two of us."
Qiu Xiren, watching from the side, immediately turned to whisper to Lin Yixin next to her.
"Mm! Let's go!"
As long as the person was fine, they wouldn't continue to join the fun.
After speaking, the two of them also picked up their backpacks and went off work.
Qin An Ran, who was happily humming over there, didn't see this scene. She was happy now~
As she tidied up and saw that the office was empty, she even hummed softly...
Xue Han, who had been quietly observing from outside for a long time, "... "
This child... can she still be saved? kan sh u w u. x a
After watching for a while longer, she still shook her head and turned to leave.
It was a good thing the child was happy, she shouldn't interfere too much...
Mm!
She was also going off work for coffee~
Thus, Qin An Ran was the only one left in this entire area.
Occasionally giggling, and humming a few tunes...
If anyone heard it, they would probably have to go back to rest for a long time...
...
Qiu Xi had no idea about the interesting events happening at the company.
She was busy looking at the notifications in the class group chat.
The school's calculation of postgraduate recommendation (保研) grades had been announced.
At the same time, the college also issued the notice regarding the proportion of students recommended for postgraduate studies within the department.
Their college had a total of 45 spots, with 9 allocated to their major...
This proportion was quite high.
Even so, the competition was also very fierce!
This could be seen from the announced list of calculations; there were not a few students who met the conditions for recommendation!
"The competition is really fierce!"
"Indeed, with only 9 spots, the number of competitors is growing exponentially, the pressure is undeniable..."
"It's difficult..."
After reading the notice, a few people started chatting in the group.
"Also, this interview time, are they preparing to start interviews after the recommendation spots are announced next week?"
"..."
"That's probably how it is..."
If it wasn't for that, they wouldn't be asking for materials now with so little time...
Look at how time was being utilized; the notice for calculation was issued at the end of the summer vacation, and the end of the公示期 (public announcement period) coincided with the start of the new semester...
Thinking about it, it was truly hard work for the school teachers...
"It's good to finish earlier, the longer it drags on, the more tiring it is."
"True..."
"Fortunately, my internship is almost over, and I should be back at school after the semester starts."
"Me too."
Shen Yan and Liang Yunfei both started at the beginning of the holiday, and they both contacted their internships themselves.
Since the goal was to gain experience for their theses, they were ready to withdraw after achieving it.
"I might be a little later, I have to wait until the formal internship period ends."
Qiu Xi calculated the dates in her mind; she might have to wait until October.
However, Teacher Xue had also talked to her before, and it might be earlier, but the specifics would only be known later.
Song Daiyao silently added a sentence below, "Me too..."
Her situation was similar to Xiao Xi's, so their times wouldn't differ much on the surface.
"..." Shen Yan and Liang Yunfei were speechless.
"Then it seems only the two of us will be waiting for you at school."
It would be better for them to return to school to write their theses...
"Currently, it seems that's the only way."
"Let's not talk about it anymore, let's prepare first."
Time was limited, so they had to prepare.
After the start of the semester, the recommendation spots would be announced, the announcement period would be 3 days, and the interviews would likely finish within the following week.
It was still quite tight...
"I won't talk anymore, I'm going to write my thesis, bye~"
After chatting in the group, Qiu Xi put down her phone and continued her thesis, "Foundation Building."
