Chapter 819 A Touch of Surprise

"Xiao Xi!"

As soon as Shen Yan saw Qiu Xi, she excitedly walked over.

The two of them happened to be leaving the office together today.

"Yan Yan?"

"Why are you so happy today?" This wasn't like her from the previous two days when she was still complaining, Qiu Xi was quite curious.

"Hehe~" Shen Yan smiled sheepishly, "You could tell?"

"Something made me happy today, so I got a little excited~"

"What could make you smile so cheerfully while surrounded by papers?" Now Qiu Xi was genuinely curious for an answer.

"Regarding this matter, I think you probably know about it too," Shen Yan said, drawing out the suspense.

"You know, about the thing you asked me about earlier, the selection of programs for the 120th anniversary school celebration that teachers were sending out. Didn't the teachers say that everyone had to contribute at least one program?"

Qiu Xi nodded, "Yes."

"Were you picked?" As Qiu Xi spoke, she seriously sized up Shen Yan.

It shouldn't be, right? If she had been chosen, she should be frowning right now!

As expected, as soon as Qiu Xi finished speaking, Shen Yan suddenly exclaimed loudly, "How could that be!"

"I'm already too busy with my studies, how could I have the heart to think about performing..."

After starting graduate school, she realized that for someone like her, the only thought now was to graduate smoothly...

Thinking about it, it really is... it sounds absurd, but it's a very real situation.

"Then why are you so happy?"

"Hehe~ Someone volunteered to perform. Those few people in our group, including the senior students, were quite happy, and I was no exception!"

"..."

"At this crucial juncture, someone actually volunteered?"

Putting aside other things, she had to express her admiration first.

"Yes!" Shen Yan nodded, "It was Gu Qingqing!"

"When we received the notification last night, we were all ready to discuss it together, but she suddenly jumped out and said she needed to consider it carefully."

"So we set a time this morning to discuss it together in the office."

"Who knew she'd directly say that she had already discussed it with the teacher last night..."

"And so, we solved the problem, and the few people in the office haven't quite reacted yet!"

It was only her who didn't want to listen to people droning on inside, so she found an excuse to leave first.

"Uh..."

"Your problem-solving speed is truly admirable!"

"But I'm still very curious, isn't Gu Qingqing also going to host the departmental exchange meeting at the end of October?"

Shen Yan herself had seen this information.

Shen Yan nodded, "Yes."

"So she's preparing for this program first. Doesn't she know about the internal reports promised by the teachers at the end of the year?"

Every teacher should be informing their students about this, and it's not a secret.

"She was told!"

"The senior students were just telling her inside. If it's really too difficult, we can still share some of the burden. After all, her situation is a bit special, and she could choose not to go this time..."

"So she knew the situation and still chose to sign up?"

Shen Yan looked at Qiu Xi's slightly surprised gaze and nodded affirmatively, "Yes."

"Alright then..."

"She's a warrior!" Qiu Xi sighed.

"Isn't she!" Shen Yan agreed, "Because of this, I look at her much more favorably now."

"I just don't know if she'll really be able to handle it and balance so many things if it really comes down to it."

"We'll see later, won't we?" Qiu Xi casually nodded after listening.

"That's true, I'm worrying about others..." She herself isn't even looking out for herself.

"Alright, since everything is settled now, let's just see what happens."

"En!" Shen Yan nodded.

"Let's go, we're going to the library."

"Okay~"

When they don't have classes, the two of them go to the library. From time to time, they also run into Song Daiyao and Liang Yunfei.

The lives of these four girls now are all consumed by studying...

It's only Liang Yunfei who has followed a young female teacher. The teacher herself is very insightful and quite different from other teachers.

Therefore, Liang Yunfei's situation is now much like what Teacher Ding analyzed before.

She is now the one among them with the most leisure time.

As long as it's not a day she has to attend classes at school, she basically stays at Xiguang.

After all, at the company, besides working, she can also study, and then read papers and write papers.

...

In the blink of an eye, it was time for Qiu Xi's scheduled practice session with Rong Huacheng.

This Thursday, Qiu Xi met Rong Huacheng on time.

It wasn't in the office, but in an empty classroom that Rong Huacheng had specifically found.

"You're here."

"If there are no unexpected issues from now on, we'll both be staying here to study."

As soon as Qiu Xi entered, before she could even greet anyone, she heard Rong Huacheng's instructions.

"En, I know," Qiu Xi had no choice but to nod.

"Alright, come over and sit down first."

"Tell me, to what extent have you reviewed the materials I gave you?"

"How much more time do you need to master them firmly?"

Flipping through the small stack of materials she had brought, Rong Huacheng began to inquire about Qiu Xi's progress.

She had only asked casually, but it ended up astonishing Rong Huacheng.

"You?"

"What did you just say?"

"You've already memorized it?"

It wasn't that she was surprised; this situation was outside her expectations...

The progress was too fast, and she still hadn't quite caught up!

Seeing the surprise in Teacher Rong's eyes, Qiu Xi smiled.

"I've surprised Teacher, it just so happens that my advisor has been busy with other things these past two days, so I squeezed in some time and memorized everything I could."

"..."

"......That's good, that's very good~"

It really was very good...

Rong Huacheng, who had now recovered, had more joy than surprise on her face.

This way, her schedule had directly leaped forward a small step.

It was good news.

"Come on, I'll test you casually. If there are really no issues, then we'll proceed to the next step."

Qiu Xi nodded calmly, "Okay."

She couldn't wait!

If you were to ask who was more anxious about this, she felt she was even more anxious than this teacher.

After all, these were all unplanned events, and who wouldn't want them to end sooner?
