Jiang Xianrou seemed to be slapped in public and her face burned painfully. Her heart was beating fast, her brain was spinning fast, and she pinched her hands. “Grandpa, I…”
Old Master Jiang’s eyes were calm and powerful, and he just stared at her quietly, as if encouraging her to continue.
Jiang Xianrou raised her head and glanced at him, then lowered it again in embarrassment. Her voice was indistinct. “I’ll listen to you. But… what Aunt said also makes some sense. This request for me to move is too sudden. I don’t know where to move to. In addition, Qing University will start school tomorrow, and I’m in my last year before graduation. I’m faced with the problem of choosing a research major. I really can’t find time to deal with the matter of moving…”
Jiang Xianrou pinched her hands and raised her head again. Her facial features were actually similar to Qiao Nian’s, but they were not as delicate.
In addition, Jiang Xianrou had a shallow outline and long facial features, and her side profile was her most three-dimensional feature.
Such a face shape was not as comfortable to see as Qiao Nian’s clear and smooth contours, and it was more temperamental.
She had always been aware of her own shortcomings. She was usually cold-hearted and didn’t care about others in order to cater to her own physical advantages and highlight her temperament.
In this way, she would always unconsciously show a sense of superiority when she looked at people.
This time too.
She looked at Old Master Jiang, pursed her red lips, and said in a low voice, “Grandpa, I’ve already thought about the major for the postgraduate entrance examination. I want to enter the Ninth Branch and study biological engineering under Master Cheng.”
The Ninth Branch was the most difficult force to enter in Beijing, and it was also a place where all the top talents in the country gathered.
Jiang Xianrou had a very big goal.
The Jiang family’s status in Beijing would be different in the future if they could produce a talent who could enter the Ninth Branch!
She was announcing her future plans in advance at this time because of this point.
“At that time, I’ll definitely be busy with my studies, and I won’t have so much energy to manage other things.”
Tang Wanru was quite excited. “Xianrou, have you thought about it?”
Jiang Xianrou nodded and said gracefully, “Mom, I’ve made up my mind. I’m not going to major in medicine as a graduate student. The ceiling of studying medicine is the same as that of my supervisor. I don’t want my future ceiling to be just like that. I’ve made up my mind to change majors.”
Liang Lu was recognized as the first in the field of brain science in China.
But so what?
She was just a doctor at best.
She wanted more!
The Ninth Branch had always been her goal.
Only by entering the Ninth Branch could she be nearer to that person and have the opportunity to get along with that person day and night.
“Yes, it’s good that you’ve thought it through. Mom supports you.” Tang Wanru obviously forgot the situation they were in and nodded again and again.
Old Master Jiang just frowned and stared at Jiang Xianrou with a pair of sharp eyes after listening to her plan for the future. His expression was not superfluous, but anyone could see his answer to Jiang Xianrou. He wasn’t satisfied. “Xianrou, is this what you wanted to tell me?”
Jiang Xianrou’s heart tightened again, and she looked at the old man with flickering eyes. She was a little embarrassed and unwilling to make eye contact with him. “Grandpa, I…”
Seeing her like this, Mr. Jiang asked in a low voice, “You’ve never thought of apologizing to Nian Nian even though things got to this point?”
Jiang Xianrou raised her head sharply.
“You never thought of apologizing to your cousin for what you did?”
Old Master Jiang didn’t stop because she was embarrassed and turned blue. He asked her again, and his voice sounded calm as if this was an ordinary inquiry.
