Chef at the University Canteen-Chapter 435 - 263: You Must Be Here for Boss Xiao Jiang_2

Chapter 435: Chapter 263: You Must Be Here for Boss Xiao Jiang_2

Otherwise, why would he jump ship from an internationally renowned university to Jiang University?

Mind you, the University of Bristol, where he worked before, is among the top one hundred universities in the world, and Professor Hans was a tenured professor!

The gap between Huazhong Agricultural University and the University of Bristol is much larger than the gap between Jiang University and Huazhong Agricultural University, and I’m not at all on the same level as Professor Hans!

Given this, if Professor Hans is willing to move from a top one hundred university to Jiang University, then why can’t I?

Could it be that I’m more capable than Professor Hans?"

Thinking like this, Qin Zhiyuan’s firm belief began to waver...

If I really came to Jiang University, not only could I enjoy the delicious meals at the Seventh Dining Hall every day, but I would also become colleagues with Professor Hans!

Wasn’t I just regretting not going to Professor Hans’ house yesterday evening to discuss academics face to face with him?

If the two of us became colleagues...

Qin Zhiyuan felt his heart pounding fiercely!

If I truly become colleagues with Professor Hans, then perhaps the research that has seen no progress might advance by leaps and bounds, maybe even yielding astonishing results!

Winning a Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine is too much to dream for, but securing a position in the international field of biological sciences is quite possible!

Qin Zhiyuan sat there, the more he thought about it, the more promising it seemed, making him increasingly excited inside.

He couldn’t stay in the dining hall any longer, feeling that his stomach wasn’t as full, Qin Zhiyuan hurriedly stood up from his seat and rushed toward Taoyuan Conference Hall.

He was almost impatient to communicate with Mr. Hans...

Rushing all the way to Taoyuan Conference Hall, Qin Zhiyuan was discovered by Professor Qian before he had a chance to enter, who hurriedly approached him with a curious expression, asking:

"Hey? Professor Qin, how come you’re back from outside? We all thought you hadn’t woken up yet!

This is... did you go out early in the morning? Where did you go?"

Qin Zhiyuan nodded to him with a smile, saying: "Oh, I, I’m used to exercising early. I just came back after exercising!"

"Exercising?"

Professor Qian looked him up and down suspiciously, then pointed to the clothes on him, saying,

"You, exercising in this?"

Qin Zhiyuan looked down at his neatly worn suit and shiny leather shoes, laughed awkwardly, and said:

"We’re not as young as lads, exercising like them? What I mean by exercising is just walking slowly around the campus to stretch my muscles.

Besides, we’re here for academic activities, not vacations, who would specifically bring sportswear? Just make do with what we have!"

"Hahaha! Professor Qin has a point."

Professor Qian couldn’t help but laugh, pointing to the restaurant on the first floor, he laughed and said,

"Well then, has Professor Qin eaten yet? Hurry up and have something, we still have activities to attend later."

"Okay, okay!"

Qin Zhiyuan responded and walked quickly through the door.

Having already stuffed himself in the Seventh Dining Hall, why would he go to the buffet restaurant for breakfast again? Upon entering, he quickly passed by the buffet restaurant without even glancing at it, heading straight to the rooms upstairs.

Having tasted the delectable soup dumplings from the Seventh Dining Hall, how could he fancy the breakfast at Taoyuan Conference Hall?

After returning to his room and tidying up briefly, Qin Zhiyuan hurriedly headed downstairs again.

It was just past eight now, with nearly an hour until today’s academic exchange event, he needed to quickly find Mr. Hans and Vice Dean Jiang Gaozhe, to discuss his intention to stay at Jiang University, and listen to their advice.

If Mr. Hans chose to stay at Jiang University because of the food at the Seventh Dining Hall, then he made the same choice for the same reason...

There’s nothing surprising about that, is there?

...

Not far from Jiang University, in Beishan Village, Zhu Yaxue was startled awake by a burst of noisy quarrels coming from outside the window.

She grumbled irritably a few words, pulled up the quilt, turned over on the bed, and covered her head to continue the unfinished dream.

This family inn was quite clean, but the room facilities were really poor, especially the walls between the rooms.

Calling them walls is generous, they’re just thin wooden boards that sound "thump thump" with a tap; just imagine the sound insulation.

Last night, it seemed a pair of energetic young lovers checked into the room next door, their rampant hormones stirred a storm throughout the night, leaving Zhu Yaxue flushed and feverish, tossing and turning unable to sleep.

She endured until dawn before she groggily fell asleep.

But she hadn’t slept long before the quarrelling outside woke her; she could easily imagine it was a pair of old women jumping up and down, pointing fingers and hurling insults at each other.

Judging by the scene, the verbal sparring probably wouldn’t stop for several hours.

It’s incredibly annoying!

The harsh insults drifted to her ears from time to time, occasionally accompanied by dog barks, making Zhu Yaxue, wrapped up in her covers, unable to sleep.
