“Tan Mo recognizes so many words! He has saved us so much time because now we don't have to check the dictionary. He even helped us when we had to check the dictionary,” Wang Yuemu said. “We hardly need to lift our heads from our work now.”
“Enough, everything!” When Ying Siyuan heard this, a sharp sensation bubbled in her heart. It was almost as if his heart was a lemon squeezed into his juice.
“You snatched Tan Mo from our team and are now celebrating his contribution. Should you really say it out loud to provoke us?” Ying Siyuan gnashed her teeth as she spoke.
“It's true.” Guan Ruyue interrupted.
Wang Yuemu chuckled and said, “Our team has been fighting for a long time. We rarely produce such good results. Should you take this excitement from us?”
Inside the research room, Tan Mo made good progress.
Everyone is good and because they are all scholars, they do not underestimate each other's opinions.
Everyone had accepted Tan Mo with open arms. They are constantly joking and no one gets angry easily.
By the time Tan Mo had fully assimilated into the group, it was time to attend Professor Tang's class.
🌹🍀🌹
Since only 20 people attended her class, the lessons took place in a small classroom.
As Tan Mo walked in, he saw rows of tables and chairs far apart from each other. There was a huge gap between each table, and there was plenty of space.
When he entered, there were still about 20 minutes until the class started. The classroom is packed with students.
Tan Mo glanced at the room at a glance and determined the number of people present accurately.
There are exactly 20 people.
Professor Tang has not arrived yet.
Since it was a class reserved for second-year students, he did not see Wu Xiaoye in the classroom.
Tan Mo did not know anyone in the history department except Wu Xiaoye.
Tan Mo was just about to enter the classroom and look for a seat when he heard some people discussing gossip amongst themselves.
“Did you guys hear about that? A new student has joined Professor Gu.”'s research team
“I heard. Too bad I don't know anyone from the research team. I want to hear their opinion on it.”
Tan Mo thought, isn't that normal? The research team is all students studying for a PhD.
It is too early for a second-year student to get acquainted with a PhD student.
He had completely forgotten that he was only a one year student.
“In addition to the fact that the student is a freshman, I do not know anything else.”
“Actually, I know some students majoring in Mandarin. They were all second year students. Many of them have strong opinions on this. Everyone in the Chinese major wanted to join Professor Gu's team, but no one dared to be too hopeful. After all, the team is made up of PhD students who are all top students. And now there are rumors that a new student has joined them. Who can be happy about that?”
“A year one student is able to join a team, so why can't year two students do the same? We are one year ahead,” someone join the conversation.
“That's why it's so unfair,” said someone else. “If only PhD students are allowed to join, okay, there is no point in arguing. But why is a freshman allowed to join while other students are not? School has just begun, and so far they have only attended a few classes.”
“What is the background of the new student?” someone asked.
All the students in the class shook their heads. They don't know.
No one knew them, nor did anyone ever exchange words with them.
“Yang Jiamao, you know a lot of people. Did you hear anything?” a boy asked.
Yang Jiamao had a large social circle. He met with several PhD students.
“Hey, I've heard enough. I was deliberately trying to find news. I know Ying Siyuan from Professor Gu's research team. But he refused to say anything,” Yang Jiamao said grimly.
🍀
Ying Siyuan, who was working hard in the research room, suddenly sneezed.
“Did you catch a cold? Are we setting the AC too low?” Wang Yuemu glanced at him.
“Senior Ying, you seem a bit vulnerable. Although the scholars are stereotypically weak, none of us girls are getting sick. How can you catch a cold because of AC?” Pu Xinyan scoffed at him.
“I don't hurt.” Ying Siyuan rubbed her nose before continuing, “I think someone is talking about me.”
“Whose do you think it is?” Shen Hongshan laughed.
Ever since Ying Siyuan became a freshman at Beijing University, she had never had a boyfriend. Who can think about it now?
“Enough about that. A second-year student came to ask me about Tan Mo a while ago.” After pondering over it for a moment, Ying Siyuan continued, “..
“She's a second-year student studying history. Why did he ask about our Chinese major?” Guan Ruyue was worried. “Even if someone wanted to hunt him down, it must be someone from Professor Tang's team. Why do sophomore students do that?”
“Who knows? All I know is that he asked about Tan Mo's background and how a first-year student could join our research team." Ying Siyuan laughed.
Ling Zumu immediately started talking about conspiracy theories. “Did the student be sent by Professor Tang's team? They may assume that we will not answer their questions if they approach us personally. Therefore, they ask second year students to ask questions so we are off guard.”.
Wu Jiazhen hurried. Before Ying Siyuan could react, Wu Jiazhen's huge face floated right in front of her. He was so shocked that he almost fell out of his chair.
“Ss *t! What's wrong with you? You scared me!” Ying Siyuan exclaimed in shock.
“Senior, did you tell them?” Wu Jiazhen looked at Ying Siyuan anxiously.
It is important to keep it away from them.
“I didn't do it.” Ying Siyuan pushed Wu Jiazhen's large face to the side. “Do you think I'm less careful? I didn't say anything. But I don't think it was someone sent by Professor Tang's team. Because the boy asked me which first grade student it was. He asked about her gender and how she got in. She obviously knew nothing about Tan Mo. If he was someone sent by Professor Tang, would they ask this kind of question?”
“It's true.” Wu Jiazhen nodded.
“But I'm very careful.” Ying Siyuan was involved in self-compliment. “It doesn't matter what intention he has. Since I didn't say anything, there's nothing wrong.”
“Really! Our leader is a very wise man!” Wu Jiazhen gave a thumbs up to support her.
🍀
Back in class, Yang Jiamao continued, “I only asked because my friends in the Chinese major also asked about the student. Otherwise, it would have nothing to do with our History major, even if the student was a freshman. However, I can't gather much."
“Maybe many students majoring in China feel the injustice, right? That's not very important to scholars. But many PhD students cannot join, but they do allow a freshman to join. Is this fair to them?"
“Most importantly, they have only attended a few classes so far. All of these classes are specialized, and their contents are very different from those studied in junior high and high school. Someone actually joined Professor Gu's team with the standards of high school students? What a laughable joke!”
Tan Mo raised his eyebrows. He never imagined that a student majoring in Chinese Language and History would spread rumors about him, even though he wasn't even part of that department.
