Pomegranate never thought that this time, Qin Zhiyuan would actually speak the truth. Although he had often said this before, he would always let her pass every time. The pomegranate knew that luck couldn't keep her company forever, but this time, she really didn't intend to miss the exam.
Now, no one was willing to listen to her. She retreated from Qin Zhiyuan's office. When she walked to the nurse's station, the few people who had surrounded her also dispersed.
It really was as if a tree had fallen and monkeys had scattered. Moreover, she was just a sapling outside of the divine realm.
With a chuckle, pomegranate dragged its tired body back to the dormitory.
She was waiting for An Ran to come back. In the morning, An Ran had told her that they were going to have lunch together, but no one was waiting for her. No one answered the phone for An Ran, as they were worried that she had forgotten the time.
Just as they walked into the passage, before they could inquire about An Ran's whereabouts, they heard someone say, "An Ran, you're really lucky this time. Not only did you successfully pass the exam, you even got a spot in Dr. Yang's research team."
With her back facing the pomegranate, An Ran smiled and said, "I didn't expect to be so lucky this time around."
The pomegranate stared at An Ran. She had never thought that things would turn out this way. She had always thought that An Ran was her best friend, so she told her everything. While he was thinking, someone suddenly shouted, "Pomegranate!"
The pomegranate turned to look. It was a nurse she knew well, and she nodded at the nurse. An Ran, who was talking to someone else, turned around and saw that the pomegranate's face had turned green.
Quickly running over, "Little Rock, listen to me. It's not what you think it is, I, I …"
The pomegranate looked at An Ran with a grin. She had never blamed anyone for this matter. When she came down, someone else naturally went up to her. She just didn't expect that it would coincidentally be An Ran's turn.
"Of course, congratulations!" The pomegranate stretched out its hand.
An Ran looked at him with a troubled expression, "Little Rock, don't be like this. I just got lucky and won!"
pomegranate had never known that Yang Ziyun's candidate list for the research team would be linked to the assessment. Even if she knew beforehand, she would not do anything. pomegranate had never been interested in Yang Ziyun's research team.
"Of course, I never knew that you wanted to join the research team!" The pomegranate had talked to Enron about this before. She had not said anything about it at the time, and only now did the pomegranate realize that Enron had been working in silence.
"I-I didn't mean to hide it from you. It's just that at that time, I felt that I didn't have many opportunities to go, which was why I didn't tell you. " An Ran continued to explain. She was worried that the pomegranate would misunderstand some of this. She looked at her with eyes filled with tears.
"Idiot, as long as it's an advanced student who doesn't want to obtain this qualification, I don't blame you!" Zhuque Zhi wiped away the tears from the corner of An Ran's eyes, then he held her hand and said, "Let's go and have lunch together."
An Ran turned her head to look at the pomegranate. Although she had been smiling all this time, she knew that behind the smile was an intense pain in her heart. Everyone only knew that Pomegranate looked stupid, but behind her harmless appearance was a sensitive heart.
"Little Rock, are you alright?" An Ran asked worriedly: "You failed your exam this time. Your Chairman Qin won't punish you, will he?"
The pomegranate stopped, turning its head to look at An Ran. Originally, it wanted to act strong, but who knew that in that second, tears would flow out from its eyes.
"Little stone, don't cry! What exactly happened? " An Ran asked anxiously.
Pomegranate looked at her and blinked. "Of course, can you not ask? Shall we have a quiet meal together? "I don't think I'll feel as bad as I do now that I've eaten!"
"Fine, fine, fine. I won't ask, I won't ask anything. Let's eat, eat more." An Ran consoled the pomegranate like a child. The pomegranate knew she looked childish, but she could no longer pretend to be as hard as she used to be.
As long as An Ran was willing to accompany her and coax her, even if it was just a false front, she wanted to stay inside.
After eating lunch very quickly, pomegranate's mood stabilized a lot at this moment. She told the whole story to An Ran, and after An Ran listened to it, she felt sorry for the pomegranate.
Looking at the pomegranate, An Ran opened her eyes wide and said, "It was just a failure in the assessment. Why is Chairman Qin so serious?" Other students' grades are still lower than yours by a little, but why didn't they receive such a punishment? Little Rock, this is not fair to you! "
Lifting his eyes to look at An Ran, pomegranate whispered, "Teacher Qin, he hasn't specified how we're going to deal with this matter …"
"Do you still think that you have a chance to turn the situation around?" An Ran knew that pomegranate's feelings for Qin Zhiyuan were not ordinary, but she couldn't let him lose his reason, "The reason why Chairman Qin told you that is because he wanted to give you some time. Xiao Shitou, don't forget that Qin Zhiyuan is known for being strict with his students in our South Opening.
The pomegranate originally had a glimmer of hope, but after hearing these words, its hope was instantly shattered. Was she really planning to return to the Red Cross Hospital in Garin County?
No, she had come out, and she couldn't just go back like that. Not only would she be a laughingstock, but she would never be able to raise her head again at the Red Cross Hospital in Garin County.
Looking at An Ran, pomegranate seemed to lose its mind. "Of course, I don't want to leave this place. Do you have any way to make me stay here?"
An Ran didn't know either, but facing such a pomegranate, she felt sad. She thought that if she hadn't pushed the pomegranate down this time, the pomegranate would have definitely stayed outside of the divine.
Seeing the pomegranate tears, An Ran's heart tightened. She thought that no matter what, she would fight for the pomegranate this time.
After sending the pomegranate back to the dorm, he comforted Zhao Lei. Taking advantage of the time before it was time to go to work, he hurriedly rushed out of the room and met Zhao Lei at the nurses' station. "Senior Brother Zhao, may I ask if Chairman Qin is here?"
Zhao Lei pointed at Qin Zhiyuan's office, and before he could say anything, An Ran had already ran over.
An Ran knocked on the door. After hearing the voice, she unlocked the door and entered. Qin Zhiyuan looked up and asked, "An Ran, what's the matter?"
"A little." An Ran stood across from Qin Zhiyuan's desk, thinking about what to say.
"Take a seat!" Qin Zhiyuan pointed at the chair opposite him, "Did Dr. Wang tell you to come find me?"
In recent days, the joint external and external consultation had become more and more intimate, and the exchanges between them had become even more intense than before. When An Ran heard this, she shook her head like a rattle drum, "No, it wasn't Teacher Wang who asked me to come."
Looking at Qin Zhiyuan, An Ran opened her mouth with great difficulty, "Actually, I'm here about the pomegranate!"
Qin Zhiyuan did not say anything, but An Ran hurriedly pleaded on behalf of pomegranate, "It's really her fault that pomegranate failed the exam this time, but even so, Director Qin's condition isn't serious enough that she has to leave the South Opening Hospital. So, I'm begging you, don't chase her away, it took a lot of effort for her to get the quota at the South Opening Hospital."
Qin Zhiyuan didn't say anything and just drank a few mouthfuls. He didn't have any expression on his face as he quietly listened to An Ran. After she finished, he said, "This is pomegranate. Did she ask you to come?"
"No, she doesn't know about pomegranate. I carried her on my back to find you!" An Ran said.
At this moment, Qin Zhiyuan said, "I understand what you mean!"
An Ran didn't get the answer she wanted and asked again: "Chairman Qin, about the pomegranate …"
Before she could finish her words, Qin Zhiyuan said, "I will carefully consider this matter."
An Ran saw that she was unable to find any other results, so she stood up from her chair and bowed to Qin Zhiyuan, "Chairman Qin, you have to think about the pomegranate matter carefully. I'll be leaving first, and I hope you won't mention the matter of me coming to find you."
"Yes."
He didn't know what was going on with pomegranate, so why did he reveal this matter? Originally, he only intended to punish her a little, but now, if Qin Zhiyuan didn't deal with this matter seriously, it would seem that he was being unfair.
Qin Zhiyuan clenched his hands into fists as he looked down at the approval document. He felt that this matter wasn't as simple as it seemed on the surface.
The pomegranate's body was still in good health. It would have been reasonable to say that it had a problem on the day of the examination. If not for the people around the pomegranate, he would not have been able to think of a second answer.
An Ran's name was written at the end of the document. It seemed that the person with the best relationship would not hesitate to sell out even at a crucial moment like this. As for this, pomegranate was not clear.
Qin Zhiyuan had already experienced this back in California. Even though he and her were a couple at that time, he had not exposed her for so many years. However, that did not mean that he was unharmed in the past, and he had already forgotten the past.
After An Ran had left, Yang Ziyun pushed open the door and walked in. Looking at Qin Zhiyuan, she asked, "What business do you have with me?"
Qin Zhiyuan walked around to the door, and locked it from the inside. Then, he closed the curtain and stood in front of Yang Ziyun, asking, "Why did you do this to pomegranate?" She is innocent! "
"She's innocent?" Yang Ziyun looked at Qin Zhiyuan and smiled, "So you treat her that well? Zhi Yuan, we are not blind, so why pretend to be ignorant? "
"I admit that I did hit her a little too hard this time. I originally thought that my competitor was someone with skill after all. I just didn't expect her to be so weak!" Yang Ziyun looked at Qin Zhiyuan, "As long as you agree to reunite with me, I can let her go. I can even let her join my research team. I'll even take her along and take good care of her like how you took care of her …"
"Stop messing around. Caiyun, our business has nothing to do with pomegranates. Why do you have to be so angry?" Looking at Yang Ziyun, Qin Zhiyuan asked, "Chen Ling, what did he tell you?"
"He didn't tell me anything." Yang Ziyun slowly said, "I have my own eyes. I can see who you're good to and who you're bad to! This time it's a pomegranate, next time I don't know who it will be! "
"Are you crazy?" Qin Zhiyuan looked at Yang Ziyun. He did not know when she had become so unscrupulous.
"Right, I'm crazy. For you, I can be any kind of crazy!" With that, Yang Ziyun stood up from her desk and changed her tone, "Chairman Qin, if you have no other orders, I'll be leaving first!"
Looking at Yang Ziyun walking away with her high heels, Qin Zhiyuan was at his wit's end.
