564: Chapter 564: Completely Unconcerned 564: Chapter 564: Completely Unconcerned At that mont, the fact that Xiao Yifei had not made many acquaintances with external faculty mbers also beca a point of attack against him.
Although Xiao Yifei was not aware of what other teachers were thinking about him at this mont, Qi Xunlei’s reminder and everything he had clearly seen today made him aware of others’ attitudes toward him.
Qi Xunlei was right, the number of people who had grievances against him was not small.
Still, Xiao Yifei remained unaffected.
From the beginning, he never considered other teachers a matter of concern.
A person not envied is diocre.
And Xiao Yifei was not only not diocre — he was a genius among geniuses!
How other teachers viewed him, Xiao Yifei truly did not take it to heart.
Thus, even though he could feel the odd looks from around him, Xiao Yifei remained composed and unconcerned.
“Haha, I wasn’t busy today, and since I was just idling, I ca over early,”
Qiu Shaobin’s face was filled with friendly smiles.
As he turned his head to talk to Xiao Yifei, he suddenly realized the hostile looks directed at Xiao Yifei from all around.
He slightly furrowed his brow in confusion.
“No problem, Professor Qiu, you need not worry.”
Xiao Yifei, swiftly noticing the change in Qiu Shaobin’s expression, maintained a relaxed smile on his handso face.
“What exactly is this…”
As Qiu Shaobin heard Xiao Yifei’s words and his gaze sharpened, he turned his head back, eting the gazes of the unfriendly looking teachers without flinching.
Seeing those gazes retract, Qiu Shaobin looked at Xiao Yifei with so confusion and asked, “What is this all about?”
Seeing Qiu Shaobin’s reaction, Xiao Yifei couldn’t help but silently laugh.
From the beginning, he had always held respect for this sowhat odd teacher, despite Xiao Yifei himself having an impressive background now.
His views hadn’t changed.
Moreover, seeing how Qiu Shaobin had stood up for him earlier, Xiao Yifei found it quite amusing.
“There’s nothing really the matter.”
Xiao Yifei shook his head with a helpless smile and continued, “It seems like these teachers think that my skills do not match my renowned reputation, and they are sowhat jealous, I guess.”
After saying this, he casually touched his nose.
When Qiu Shaobin heard Xiao Yifei’s words, his eyes widened instantly.
“Have these teachers gone mad?”
Qiu Shaobin spoke in disbelief, “On what basis do they dare to doubt you—are their brains faulty or what?
Haven’t the things you’ve done suffice to convince these teachers of your abilities?”
Xiao Yifei’s remarks filled Qiu Shaobin with disbelief; he found it hard to fathom how there could be such brainless people who would choose to doubt Xiao Yifei!
“Haha, it’s alright, Professor Qiu, you don’t have to worry about these things.”
Compared to the perplexed and astonished Qiu Shaobin, Xiao Yifei was indifferent, without a trace of care.
After finishing these words, Xiao Yifei, curious, looked at Qiu Shaobin and continued, “Professor Qiu, you are close to retirent; are you also interested in this research group this ti?”
Upon hearing Xiao Yifei, Qiu Shaobin, after giving a cold snort towards Mu Bin and Xu Yang who obviously looked down on Xiao Yifei, then turned back to answer Xiao Yifei’s question.
“Haha, it’s not really interest.
I’ve lived this long, and although I’ve made so minor achievents in dicine, I am aware of my shortcomings.
My temperant has kept from being taken seriously, and of course, I’ve never been part of any important national research group.
This ti, I just ca to see the world.”
He happily replied to Xiao Yifei.
Just now, Mu Bin and Xu Yang, who had been glared at by Qiu Shaobin, sheepishly averted their gazes.
Having heard of Qiu Shaobin’s quirky and irascible temper, they couldn’t help feeling sowhat nervous when they saw the fierce look in his eyes earlier.
However, at the sa ti, they were even more disdainful of Xiao Yifei.
“This Xiao Yifei is really funny.
Even now, he still hides beside his college’s professor.
How embarrassing!”
That incident just now had further solidified their belief in Xiao Yifei’s incompetence.
Currently, Xiao Yifei, sitting next to Qiu Shaobin, couldn’t help but smile and shake his head after hearing Qiu Shaobin’s reply.
Just as he was about to say sothing to Qiu Shaobin, he heard Qiu Shaobin seriously start to speak.
“Professor Xiao, you really have skills, and you are still young, so you must seize this opportunity!”
Qiu Shaobin put aside the recent incident for the mont and earnestly advised Xiao Yifei.
Although Qiu Shaobin knew Xiao Yifei had a very strong background and would likely never worry about sustenance in his life, he still believed that joining a national research group would only enhance Xiao Yifei’s prospects.
Moreover, Xiao Yifei truly possessed the ability!
Even though Xiao Yifei genuinely respected Qiu Shaobin, through getting to know him slowly, Qiu Shaobin was filled with hope for this young professor!
He greatly admired Xiao Yifei’s presence, neither inferior nor arrogant, yet with an astonishing background.
Therefore, the words Qiu Shaobin spoke to Xiao Yifei ca from the bottom of his heart!
Xiao Yifei, after hearing Qiu Shaobin’s words, nodded his head and smiled.
Just at that mont, Qi Xunlei, carrying two books in his arms, hurried in and imdiately sat down next to Xiao Yifei upon seeing him.
“Why are you reading here?”
Qiu Shaobin looked at Qi Xunlei’s appearance and couldn’t help feeling puzzled.
Hearing Qiu Shaobin speak, Qi Xunlei, a bit embarrassed, scratched his head and laughed.
But he did not respond further, following the logic that sharpening your axe will not delay your job of cutting wood, and Qi Xunlei lowered his head again to look at the book in his hands.
Just at that mont, a series of voices suddenly arose from the front of the conference room.
The eting finally began.
This eting, due to extensive involvent, was highly prioritized by the school administration.
Currently, the assembly hall was packed with the school’s top officials.
Tan Lan sat in the middle like the moon surrounded by stars.
The current Tan Lan resud her indifferent deanor Xiao Yifei first encountered, seemingly aloof from everything, her eyes filled with a bland expression.
Her graceful figure was concealed under large clothes, her stunning face completely stoic, lacking any vitality, completely shielding the beauty Tan Lan naturally possessed.
Only Xiao Yifei knew, the Tan Lan of the Tan Family, when she truly revealed her wild, individualistic nature, was a woman unlike any he had t before.
It could even be said that Tan Lan’s personality was unique among all the won Xiao Yifei knew.
Including the act of Tan Lan sneaking into Xiao Yifei’s room in the middle of the night, which was not sothing an ordinary woman would do.
And to Xiao Yifei, his impression of Tan Lan was even more profound, though he didn’t know how Tan Lan viewed him, Xiao Yifei would certainly not forget her.
After all, Tan Lan was Xiao Yifei’s first woman, and Xiao Yifei was also Tan Lan’s first man.
Thus, when Xiao Yifei saw Tan Lan again, his heart suddenly started beating very fast.
Xiao Yifei, carrying an inexplicable emotion in his eyes, stared straight at Tan Lan sitting in the center of the conference hall, wondering about sothing.
