Chapter 250: Chapter 111: So This Is the Adult World, Huh_6
“No, Senior Brother Chen, there’s another bad news!” Qiao Yu reminded.
Qiao Yu’s words cald Chen Zhuoyang down again: “Junior Brother, stop ssing with . Just tell , what’s the situation? Either way, it’s all the sa.”
“Grandpa said you need to take the initiative to talk to Director Tian first. Ask if he can help you find a good place after you graduate. If Director Tian disagrees, then Grandpa will step in and ensure you get what you want.”
As soon as Qiao Yu finished speaking, the room fell into complete silence, with their eyes locking onto each other, big eyes staring at small eyes.
After a while, Chen Zhuoyang spoke with a bitter tone, “Did Elder Yuan really say that to you?”
“Absolutely. That’s exactly what Grandpa said. Congratulations again, Senior Brother!” Qiao Yu looked at Senior Brother Chen with clear eyes, sincerely congratulating him, almost as if the words ‘naive’ and ‘sincere’ were written all over his face.
At sixteen, it’s an age of innocence and liveliness. It’s normal not to understand the sches between adults.
If it weren’t for the fact that this kid used ‘bad news’ to define this suggestion, Chen Zhuoyang might have actually believed his dear junior brother really didn’t know anything.
So, Chen Zhuoyang showed a slightly flattering smile on his face and cautiously said, “Well, Junior Brother, could you maybe help your Senior Brother? I’m really not brave enough to say such things to the boss. But you’re different; it’s much easier for you to talk to him.”
“No way, Senior Brother Chen, you’re asking to do this? Do you think I’m not afraid of Director Tian? There are many things you don’t know, and I don’t want to talk about them. For instance, after I submitted my paper, guess what Director Tian asked to do?” Qiao Yu vividly started complaining.
Chen Zhuoyang was taken aback and asked, “What did they ask you to do?”
Qiao Yu grumbled, “The teacher wants to start a project right now, and it’s a random distribution model on pri numbers! Gee, I’m still in high school, and I’m already assigned a project. If I go to the advisor with this, will they think I have too much free ti and give more work?”
Honestly, after Grandpa thoroughly analyzed Chen Zhuoyang’s little thoughts, Qiao Yu wasn’t at all afraid that his Senior Brother might suddenly break down.
When it cos to matters affecting one’s life prospects and having to ask favors from others, one must certainly show the right attitude.
Chen Zhuoyang took a deep breath and said, “Junior Brother, how about I call you my brother? Really, if you help this ti, in the future if there’s anything you need, just say the word. As long as I can help, I promise I won’t hesitate. After all this ti together, you should know I’m not the ungrateful type.”
“Really? In the future, whenever I need help, especially not just at school, if you end up working at another school, you’ll still help? Any request will be fulfilled?” Qiao Yu seriously asked.
Chen Zhuoyang said with a serious face, “Qiao Yu, it makes no sense for you to say that. Even without our brotherly bond, just because you helped with sothing so important, I should certainly fulfill any of your requests. Otherwise, would I be human?”
“Oh.” Qiao Yu thought for a mont, nodded, and said, “Alright then… next ti Director Tian calls , I’ll talk to him for you.”
“Thank you, Junior Brother! Really… thank you so much!”
“No problem, Senior Brother, you should go rest early too.”
“Yeah, alright, I won’t hold up your work any longer.”
Chen Zhuoyang left with the paper, and the room quieted down once again. Qiao Yu was left alone in silence for a bit, sighed, and then took out his phone to dial Qiao Xi’s number.
There were many thoughts, but it seed they could only be shared with family.
“Hello, what’s up?”
“No way? What’s this problem? Can’t I call just because I have nothing to do?”
“Ha… don’t I know you? If you had nothing going on, you’d be too lazy to call .”
“Alright then, I admit it, Mom, I miss you!”
On the other end of the line, there was a pause, probably not expecting Qiao Yu to suddenly say that.
“Hey, I told you the truth, what’s it an when you don’t say anything?”
“Hmm, I’m evaluating the sincerity of your words. Maybe you’re just trying to trick into saying I miss you too, son?”
“I really don’t want to argue with you this ti. I just wanted to tell you, you were right. There’s not a single dumb one in Yanbei and Huaqing. I might never et such adorable classmates as those in class thirteen again.”
“But that’s how it should be, right? One round of screening after the secondary school exams, and again after the college entrance exams. If your classmates are no different from those in the weaker classes, then it ans there’s a big problem with the screening criteria.”
“That’s true.”
“Nonsense, I’m your mom, of course I’m right! By the way, I have sothing I want to tell you as well.”
“What is it? You’re dating soone? Let guess, no, you can’t possibly…”
“Qiao Yu!”
“Alright, what’s up!”
“I’ve gained weight!”
“Huh?”
“Really, I weighed myself the other day. Since you left, I’ve gained seven pounds! I’m now 106 pounds, what should I do?”
“What do you an, ‘what should you do?’ Really, Comrade Qiao Xi, you’re 1.69 ters tall, isn’t 106 pounds a normal_weight? What does it have to do with leaving? Could it be that your stomach’s just gotten better after giving up alcohol?”
“Is that so? Well, I miss you too, Mom!”
