Chapter 375: Chapter 375: Picking a Fight with Her
“Chi Yue has signed you up for a job as an assistant to a professor at the History Departnt,” Jiang Shuqin said angrily.
“What?” Xia Chuyi was stunned.
A job as an assistant to a History Departnt professor? That sounds like quite a nice job, but since Jiang Shuqin ntioned being “furious” about it, and it was Chi Yue who signed her up…
Xia Chuyi figured it wasn’t a good job.
Jiang Shuqin went on, “Here’s what happened: our English major teacher also teaches a public English class at the History Departnt.”
“Therefore, she casually ntioned during class that over there in the History Departnt, a professor was looking for a part-ti assistant and asked if anyone in our class wanted to sign up.”
“Being a professor’s assistant, that’s a big deal, so everyone started clamoring, asking what the deal was.”
Jiang Shuqin shook her head and said, “The teacher didn’t hide anything, admitting that the professor has a notoriously bad temper and is tough to deal with, having already gone through over twenty assistants.”
“So, those who go there could likely end up wasting their ti, doing the work, but in the end, getting no thanks and leaving with their tail between their legs, earning nothing.”
Jiang Shuqin paused, then continued, “At that mont, Chi Yue piped up, saying she knew a classmate who was hardworking, tolerant, and had a passion for history, a perfect fit for the job.”
“So, that hardworking, history-loving person is ?” Xia Chuyi found it incredibly amusing, pointing at herself and saying, “Chi Yue sure went to a lot of trouble to praise in front of the teacher.”
Jiang Shuqin tapped her on the head, saying, “You’re still laughing? Do you know what Chi Yue said?”
“Chi Yue said, ‘You were born in the countryside, accustod to hard work since young, so you’re definitely capable of handling this job.'”
Jiang Shuqin continued, “And if you can’t handle it, it’s definitely because you’re not taking it seriously and are deliberately slacking off with the professor.”
“Do you understand what this implies? If you do well, it’s expected.”
“But if you don’t, it ans you’re not diligent, and your attitude is poor.”
“When the ti cos, if the professor kicks you out, what do you think the teacher will think of you?”
Xia Chuyi laughed, “Haven’t they already gone through over twenty assistants? One more won’t matter, right?”
She was rather indifferent about the whole thing.
Jiang Shuqin shook her head at Xia Chuyi, “Chuyi, you don’t understand. Our English major teacher has so connection with Chi Yue’s family.”
“Otherwise, do you think the teacher would just agree because Chi Yue suggested it?”
“Her proposal is clearly a set-up.”
“Basically, if one plan fails, she’s got another one up her sleeve, determined to pick a fight with you.”
As she said this, Jiang Shuqin kept shaking her head at her, “Sigh, you weren’t there with us in class, and Chi Yue insisted you had voluntarily signed up.”
“After class, she even went straight to the instructor and reported the matter to the departnt, and now it’s been decided.”
Seeing Jiang Shuqin so worked up on her behalf made Xia Chuyi feel rather guilty.
“Alright, alright, we’ll cross that bridge when we co to it. The professors at the History Departnt don’t eat people, do they? What’s to be scared of?” Xia Chuyi said, “At worst, I’ll just be sent back, a bit embarrassed, but it’s no big deal.”
“How can you say it’s no big deal? Chi Yue said in front of that the professor’s wife is paralyzed, and the assistant they’re looking for will have to take care of the ‘Master.'”
“She even seed to take joy in the disaster, saying she hoped you would go and take good care of the bedridden ‘Master,’ and then you’d spend your next four years cleaning up after her!”
The more Jiang Shuqin spoke, the angrier she grew.
