Chapter 669: Mingyue Enters the Lord’s Heart (2): Reject 129

“Aren’t you going to consider what Boss Chang said?”
In Ting Lan, Qin Ran walked out of the kitchen with a very light cup of tea for Pan Mingyue and sat down beside her.
Holding the little boy in her arms, Pan Mingyue shook her head.
Chang Ning was talking about 129.
Perhaps because of Pan Mingyue’s background, she had a keen sense of smell for inspections, and, coupled with her relationship with Qin Ran, Chang Ning still valued her very much.
Chang Ning had talked to Pan Mingyue about this point through Qin Ran as well.
However, Pan Mingyue had never agreed.
She was about to start an internship at this moment. Qin Ran suddenly thought of this, but she and Song Luting never deliberately asked her to do anything.
Qin Ran was only willing to mention it because of her friendship with Chang Ning.
Now that Pan Mingyue refused again, she leaned on the sofa, nodded, and stopped discussing this matter. Instead, she lifted her chin at the little baby in Pan Mingyue’s arms and pointed at him nonchalantly with her legs crossed. “Don’t hold him, let Cheng Mu bring him back.”
Cheng Juan and Qin Ran knew the importance of educating this little boy.
It could be seen from the bad habit last time that there were too many dangerous people around him. If he wasn’t educated well, he might even turn the world upside down in the future.
Therefore, after the one-month celebration, Cheng Juan had set a series of regulations. The little boy could only be held for a maximum of eight minutes each time.
With this rule, even the oldest in the family, Tang Jun, had no choice.
Hearing this, Pan Mingyue lowered her head and looked at the jade-like little boy in her arms. As if hearing Qin Ran’s words, the little boy pouted.
Cheng Ziyu’s features were a combination of Qin Ran and Cheng Juan’s merits, and he looked too cute.
Pan Mingyue hesitated and didn’t let go of him. “Can I hold him for a while longer?”
“You still want to hug him?” Qin Ran raised her eyebrow slightly.
Pursing her lips, Pan Mingyue watched Cheng Ziyu open his dark eyes and stare at her, and couldn’t help but laugh. “Another five minutes?”
Qin Ran took a sip of tea. “All right.”
Cheng Mu walked to the side empty-handed.
Cheng Jin, who had just moved over from downstairs, was amazed to see Pan Mingyue still holding the baby boy. He whispered to Cheng Mu, “What’s Miss Pan’s origin?”
The rule that Cheng Ziyu couldn’t be held for more than eight minutes hadn’t been broken by even Qin Xiuchen and He Chen.
Ever since the one-month celebration, only Pan Mingyue had managed to let Qin Ran give in.
She was probably the first person in the whole of Beijing whom Qin Ran gave in to?
Cheng Jin already knew that Pan Mingyue had grown up as Qin Ran’s childhood friend.
However, starting today, Cheng Jin knew that he would have to re-examine Pan Mingyue. He felt like she was definitely not as simple as he imagined.
Cheng Mu glanced at him but remained silent.
With his hands behind his back, he went to call Father Lin.
“What does he mean?” Cheng Jin thought for a while and looked at the chef passing by.
The chef shook his head deeply and glanced at Cheng Mu’s back in awe. “Mr. Cheng Mu is always a profound mystery.”
Cheng Jin: “…”
Downstairs in the lobby.
While on the phone with Father Lin, Cheng Mu squatted in front of the flower pot at the floor-to-ceiling window and said loudly, “Uncle Lin, it’s still blooming. It’s been half a month already. Our experiment has improved, hasn’t it!”
…
Pan Mingyue was very busy with the graduation season and preparations for her internship.
She left directly after eating.
Qin Ran asked Cheng Mu to drive her back to school and only called Chang Ning when the car drove away.
“I asked her just now, but she refused.” In the room, Qin Ran casually pulled her stool to the front of the computer. She put her headphones on and held the mouse, watching the line drafts on the computer.
On the other end, Chang Ning was sipping coffee leisurely. Upon hearing this, he could only sigh in regret. “Well then, it’s a waste of her talent.”
It wasn’t that 129 was short of people, it was just that Chang Ning found Pan Mingyue a rare talent. Whether it was her own abilities in this area or her relationship with Qin Ran, Chang Ning valued her very much.
After they hung up, Qin Ran absent-mindedly drew the line draft.
About five minutes later, she put down her mouse again.
“You’re worried about your friend?” Cheng Juan came out of the shower holding a towel. He wiped his hair casually and couldn’t help but come over in concern. He leaned against her table and looked down at her.
“Yeah.” Qin Ran slowly looked up. “I’m a little scared of her state and her situation.”
She and Song Luting had even carefully considered Pan Mingyue’s university, and even her roommates had been specially selected by Song Luting from the political science and law department. After that, Qin Ran had personally hacked into Beijing University’s system to help Pan Mingyue change it.
Previously, Cheng Juan had also discussed Pan Mingyue with Gu Xichi, mainly because of her psychological issues.
After wiping his hair, Cheng Juan put aside his towel, his eyebrows relaxed under the warm light, gentle and elegant. “It’s okay, she’ll pass this test. The Lu family has taken over the Inspection Institute. With Lu Zhaoying around, there’s no need to worry.”
Ever since He Jinxin’s incident, the Inspection Institute had gone to a different pair of hands.
Feng Loucheng had replaced more than half of the confidants, and the family that had previously been in charge of the Inspection Institute had also stepped down.
The Inspection Institute was in high demand, and too many people were fighting for take-over rights. After discussions and voting from above, the Lu family had finally taken over.
This opportunity had been given to the Lu family because they had stood on the right side during the division of Beijing.
…
Pan Mingyue was unaware that a bunch of people was discussing her choice to attend an internship at the Inspection Institute.
On Monday, she sent the agreed publicity draft to the counselor, then prepared to head to the Inspection Institute.
The Inspection Institute was very large.
Pan Mingyue went very early.
When the time came, only a woman trainee in a black suit came. She sat down on the bench with a condescending aura and only gave Pan Mingyue a single glance when she came in.
The Inspection Institute recruited 10 interns at this time each year also to train talents.
The internship period wasn’t so much an internship as it was a further study.
This was also one of the reasons why the Beijing University political science and law department only recommended one person.
The Inspection Institute was probably the ultimate dream of every student in the political science and law department.
Although most people who had been recruited in advance for internships ultimately aimed to stay there, very few succeeded.
One reason was that too many people were seriously approaching the Inspection Institute every year, and were all old foxes who slowly moved up from the grassroots.
Another reason was that the Inspection Institute was basically saturated.
At 9 am.
All 10 interns had arrived.
Among them, only three were girls, while the others were boys.
Those with high EQ and good communicative skills had begun to chat already.
Pan Mingyue sat at the side in silence, pushing her black-rimmed glasses and not speaking much.
At 9:30 am, the HR person came in and announced where they would be transferred to.
“Pan Mingyue, Luo Qian, Fan Tongya, the three of you are in Section Chief Jiang’s office.” After the HR person’s order, they took everyone to Section Chief Jiang’s office one by one.
“Section Chief Jiang.” The HR person knocked on the door and introduced the three to him. “These three are the new students who are going to follow you in your department. They’re all domestic graduate students. Please take good care of them.”
Fan Tongya, who had come first, directly said in a somewhat domineering tone, “I’m studying at University M and just returned to China.”
Hearing this, Section Chief Jiang glanced at her in surprise.
Ph.D. students at University M were indeed rare talents. Generally, those who could study there basically stayed there and rarely ever came back.
Section Chief Jiang glanced at her and nodded slightly. “Fan Tongya, right? Go and print out these materials. Get ready in five minutes, I’ll introduce you to the seniors in the entire department. We just recently met a new case, you guys have to quickly catch up. Before you leave work tonight, leave the analysis to me, and I’ll decide whether you can follow up the first case based on the content you submitted.”
With that, he handed a document to Fan Tongya and told her to print it.
The desks for the three of them were already prepared. Luo Qian sat right across from Pan Mingyue. He introduced himself to her as a graduate student from University A.
Fan Tongya printed out the document and took it to Section Chief Jiang.
“It turned out to be a joint case with the Lu family.” Luo Qian flipped over the content and was shocked. “It’s no wonder that even the Ph.D. students of University M returned to China this year. I just heard that there’s another one from the department next door, a doctoral student who has even participated in an international meeting. Before coming here, I thought the only spot left this year would be for me, but now, it seems like I was thinking too much… Sigh, aren’t you worried about it?”
After turning on the computer and beginning to write the outline of the analysis, Pan Mingyue looked up upon hearing this. “I am.”
Although she said so, Luo Qian looked at her expression and couldn’t notice any signs of worry.
Fan Tongya returned to her seat five minutes later and continued writing her analysis on the computer.
Luo Qian originally wanted to discuss with Pan Mingyue, but seeing how she was so focused on the case, he swallowed his words back into his throat.
This case analysis wasn’t very simple, and the three newcomers naturally had to work overtime.
At 9 pm, Fan Tongya finished writing and directly submitted it.
Seeing her submit it, Luo Qian became more anxious and was too busy to speak.
At 9:30 pm, Luo Qian submitted it to Section Chief Jiang’s mailbox.
At 10 pm, because of Section Chief Jiang’s deadline, Pan Mingyue submitted the analysis.
…
The next day.
Section Chief Jiang and the two heads of the department were evaluating the analyses submitted by the three people.
“This Fan Tongya is not bad. She’s indeed a graduate of University M, and is even comparable to some in our group.” The first group’s leader looked up from the computer and nodded at Section Chief Jiang. “She can get an excellent grade.”
The first analysis they read was naturally Fan Tongya’s.
Doctoral students of University M were rare in the Inspection Institute.
After reading Fan Tongya’s analysis, they began to slowly read Luo Qian’s.
“Luo Qian’s analysis just lacks a macro perspective. He’s a graduate student of University A? It’s not bad, actually, but compared to Fan Tongya, it’s still a little lacking.”
“He has a long way to go.” The other team leader sighed. “The difference is quite obvious.”
The two team leaders didn’t give Luo Qian above 80 points for his analysis.
Section Chief Jiang didn’t speak. He had indeed given Luo Qian lower points than Fan Tongya, but he wasn’t focused on this point now. He turned to the last document, which was Pan Mingyue’s.
