One should not hit a smiling face.

Moreover, Xi Jiangmao was a teacher from her department. His polite words left a good first impression on Murong Qiao.

“Actually, I should have sent an email, but I’m really not good with electronics

at this age.”

From the outside, his hair was white and he was already in his sixties.

Xi Jiangmao was a little embarrassed. “I’ve written down all the problematic

areas and suggestions regarding your thesis. Here.

He handed over a stack of A4 paper. Murong Qiao reached out to take it and casually glanced at it. There were dense words written on it. The handwriting was very beautiful, as if he had practiced calligraphy.

“Alright, thank you, Teacher.” Murong Qiao took a few glances and put it into her bag.

Xi Jiangmao smiled even more happily. “I know you’re the best student in our department. I think very highly of you.

Just send me the thesis after it’s amended. There’s nothing else.”

Seeing this, Murong Qiao didn’t intend to stay in the office any longer. She nodded in greeting and turned to leave.

Just as she left, she saw a teacher walking over, so she greeted him politely.

The teacher nodded with a smile and turned to enter the office.

“Yo, Teacher Xi hasn’t left yet?” The teacher greeted Xi Jiangmao.

Xi Jiangmao slowly stood up. “I’m planning to rest for a while.”

“Look at you. Can’t you retire well? Why are you still managing the thesis this time? You’re still concerned about your students.” The teacher sighed.

Originally, the main subject teachers were in charge of this thesis. In the end, Xi Jiangmao suddenly took on such a tiring job a few days ago, which surprised the others.

Xi Jiangmao chuckled and said, “I heard that there’s a student called Murong

Qiao. I’m here to take a look.”

When he mentioned Murong Qiao, a meaningful look flashed across Xi

Jiangmao’s eyes.

He had read Murong Qiao’s thesis. She’s a good student, but unfortunately, she had offended the Jiang family—

However, the teacher beside him didn’t look. He only heard Xi Jiangmao’s words and thought that he cherished talent, so he didn’t think too much about

it.

As it was in the afternoon, it was a little troublesome to go home after going to the company. Murong Qiao simply skipped the complicated steps and worked on the computer at home.

In the past few days, she had been trained by the company to the point of being able to do two things at once. It was not a problem for her to reply to Jiang Chi’s messages while amending her thesis.

She had spent a lot of time on the thesis, so even if she had not read it for a long time, Murong Qiao still understood it.

After changing it according to Xi Jiangmao’s suggestions, Murong Qiao sent an email to the other party around evening, indicating that this was the second version she had modified.

But not long after, the other party replied.

[Student Murong, you don’t have to be too anxious. Sometimes, you can only do fine work if you work slowly. You can’t be anxious about the thesis.]

Murong Qiao frowned as she stared at the reply on the email.

There was a sound at the door. If one listened carefully, they would hear a

“ding”. An Nuo should have returned.

-…Qiaoqiao? It’s rare to see you at home before me.” An Nuo walked in and said in surprise when she saw Murong Qiao.

Murong Qiao diverted her attention and looked up. “I came back early today because I had something on. I have to amend my thesis.

“Thesis?” An Nuo seemed to have heard something new.

She took off her coat and pounced beside Murong Qiao in the next second, smiling and teasing her.

“Even a star student has times when their thesis is rejected?” An Nuo smiled. With Murong Qiao’s results and performance, even if the other party was busy with other things after setting up the company, An Nuo was confident in Murong Qiao. She didn’t expect her to come home because of such a matter. Murong Qiao typed another line and replied without looking up, “It’s inevitable that it’s imperfect.”

She answered An Nuo’s question, but she was a little hesitant. She carefully read her thesis and Teacher Xi’s email again.

Previously, with her Third Brother’s suggestions and review, Murong Qiao thought that her thesis was already perfect. Today, she amended it again for the entire afternoon, but the result was rejected again. Murong Qiao was really puzzled.

She frowned and wanted to take a sip of water, but when she brought the cup

to her mouth, she realized that it was empty.

“I’ll pour some water for you.” An Nuo took the glass away.

An Nuo walked briskly to the water dispenser and turned on the tap for the warm water. She turned to look at Murong Qiao, as if she had something to say. Murong Qiao raised her eyebrows and looked at her. “Something on your mind? Or are you tired?”

During this period of time, An Nuo had been as busy as Murong Qiao. After accepting the endorsement and receiving compensation last time, her reputation had soared. Now, countless invitations were handed to her.

-I guess so.” An Nuo poured herself another glass of water. “I keep feeling dizzy from being so busy these past few days. I want to rest occasionally.

She returned to the sofa and held her cup of water with both hands to cover her hands. Feeling the heat in her hand pass through her palm to her body, An Nuo’s heart slowly calmed down.

“I feel an indescribable feeling when I’m too busy. I still have to strike a balance between work and rest. When you’re free later, let’s relax together.” She turned to look at Murong Qiao, only to find that she was still staring at the computer screen in a daze.

“Qiaoqiao?” An Nuo called her.

Murong Qiao blinked and turned to look at An Nuo as if she had woken up from a dream. “Huh? I’m sorry, I just—”

She was thinking about the thesis.

She could understand if the first thesis was rejected. Perhaps Teacher Xi’s requirements were strict, but the second one was rejected so swiftly. Murong Qiao couldn’t help but find it strange.

She had not thought of the worst. After all, many of the suggestions written on the paper given by Teacher Xi were useful, and they were very insightful and helpful to her. Murong Qiao just didn’t understand why there was a problem with her thesis.

“Is the matter with the thesis very serious?” An Nuo asked.

She scratched her head. “I’m from the acting department and am not good at this, but I heard that the fourth-year thesis is quite tortuous.” It was more than torture. Many students couldn’t pass the test. It was simply miserable.

But this was not a problem for Murong Qiao.

“It’s not a big problem.” Murong Qiao pursed her lips and glanced at the rejection email on the screen.

It was a good thing that her teacher was harsh. Every time she was corrected, she would improve.

Seeing this, An Nuo didn’t ask further. “Then let’s arrange a time to go out and play when you’re free.”

“I’m going to look at the script…” As she spoke, she leaned against Murong Qiao skillfully and found the most comfortable position to lie on her lap.

The two of them were used to this. They were busy with their own things and stuck together. This was the norm after returning home at night. Murong Qiao lowered her head and smiled at the other party. Her mood also improved a lot.

The thesis was changed again and again until it was sent to Xi Jiangmao to wait for a reply.

Murong Qiao, who thought that it would be stable after a few days, received another call from Xi Jiangmao.

“The thesis still needs to be modified. After all, it will affect your graduation… I’m doing this for your own good. Moreover, a good thesis will also ensure good graduation results. It will definitely be beneficial to your future development.”

“I’ll tell you some problematic areas. Change them again. There’s also the quoted information here…”

Xi Jiangmao’s words were logical and clear, but Murong Qiao changed the thesis again and again. In the end, she even used punctuation and other questions to investigate carefully. At the end, Murong Qiao was already a little impatient about the trivialities.

She also noticed that when Xi Jiangmao said “you can’t graduate”, his tone became heavier.

Was he worried, or did he mean something else?

She was not a fool. There must be something wrong for the thesis to be rejected three times.

But this problem was definitely not about her, nor was it about the thesis..
