Chapter 1212: Registered for 1211
“The dean really has given you a big headache,” Tan Rou said. “Our graduate departnt doesn’t have that many students. A professor can only supervise up to five graduate students, and with the dean asking every teacher for nominations, Professor, you can only pick from a few of us.”
Professor Yi spoke with so difficulty, “The sester has just started not long ago, and your senior classmates are all busy with their own experints, and can hardly spare any ti to take part in the sports eting. Plus, you’re well aware that young people these days lack exercise. The longer their studies, the worse their physical fitness.”
Tan Rou agreed with this point, saying, “How could the physical condition of those who soak in the library and lab all day be good?”
Professor Yi nodded, “Yes, just last night I showed this poster to one of your senior classmates, and after seeing the poster, he clutched his chest and gasped for air, saying that if I made him participate in the sports eting, he’d call an ambulance to take him away right then and there.”
Tan Rou smiled, “I can probably guess which senior said that.”
After reading Tan Rou’s experintal report, Professor Yi was very pleased, “Indeed, entrusting the experint to you was no mistake. Your one month’s work is equal to others’ six months of hard labor. If all my students were like you, then I’d probably be out of a job.”
Tan Rou said with a smile, “That won’t happen, even if I were out of a job, you wouldn’t be, Professor.”
Speaking of the issue of unemploynt, Professor Yi looked worried again, “The dean has given each of us professors an ultimatum, if we don’t send soone to participate, not only will our research funds be withheld, but our professional title evaluations will also be postponed. I’ve reached this age and have long since received my professional title, but there are many professors promoted in the last two years who are awaiting their evaluations. If postponed, it would greatly impact them.”
Tan Rou thought that Professor Yi was good in all respects, except that he cared too much about others’ business. He was very kind and the oldest in the graduate departnt, so he liked to look after the juniors. Not only did he take care of them in their experints, but he also cared about their everyday work. And here was Professor Yi, worrying over the professional title evaluations for those new professors.
“Ah, if only soone from our graduate departnt took the initiative to participate in the sports eting, we wouldn’t have to select soone individually,” Professor Yi said, his eyes fixed on Tan Rou as he spoke.
Tan Rou chuckled lightly, seemingly understanding why Professor Yi was saying all this, “Professor, you’re not thinking of having participate in the sports eting, are you?”
Professor Yi said with a smile, “If Student Tan Rou is willing to participate, that would be wonderful.”
Tan Rou spoke with a sense of resignation, “Professor, you really think too highly of , always thinking of whenever there’s an issue.”
Professor Yi said with embarrassnt, “I actually didn’t want you to participate, but as it stands, only your experint is complete. And I used to watch you run on the track very fast, so I think you could do well in a race.”
Tan Rou was indeed capable of participating in the sports eting, and lately, she hadn’t had much to do, so it seed feasible for her to join. However, just because one enjoys sports doesn’t an one has to take part in a sports eting.
“Do you hope I sign up, Professor Yi?” Tan Rou asked directly.
Professor Yi pulled out two registration forms from so drawer, “Here, if you want to participate, just fill in this registration form.”
Tan Rou was montarily speechless then said, “It seems you’ve planned this in advance, even preparing the registration forms.”
Professor Yi admitted honestly, “I really do want you to participate in this sports eting. Right now, I have only four students, and aside from you, I can’t think of anyone else to ask.”
As Tan Rou got older, there were many things she didn’t like doing but had to do, like this sports eting. If it were in the past, she definitely wouldn’t have participated readily, unless the prizes at the sports eting were sothing she wanted.
But now things were different. Not only did Tan Rou have to consider the benefits of doing sothing, but she also had to think about others. After all, having one more friend was better than having one more enemy. Professor Yi’s students were always the best, and if Tan Rou could choose her employees from his students later, it would save her a lot of trouble.
