Can not doing what one wants be called rebirth?

Chapter 389 399. Yangtze River Delta Forum

At the beginning of a new semester, time always passes many times faster than expected.

In just one week, Mr. Lu's schedule was also full.

Two days ago, I accompanied Guan Yongyi to contact a moving company and packed a small part of the luggage from Jiangnan Home to the new home, creating a living environment for Mianmian where she could run around more happily.

In the next two days, he and Zhou Sining visited several new restaurants with delicious food and planned the next development direction of Dianjin Coffee.

At night, I naturally stayed at Donghu Tianyue.

Manage your time in a comprehensive manner, and intersperse classes and work without delaying either.

However, Zhong Ruixi was the only one left out.

Ever since Miao Keyan made her true confession in the variety show, Ruirui seemed to have changed her original habits and spent most of her time sticking with her roommate during and after classes.

Even the number of times I went to the cafeteria with Lu Jincheng at noon was very few.

She was obviously angry.

But I can't find a suitable reason to be angry.

After all, to put it bluntly, it was the company's female anchor who revealed her true feelings to the boss. If one really wants to blame Lu Jincheng, it would be unfair.

As a veteran in the entertainment industry who understands women's hearts best, Mr. Lu can certainly empathize with Bai Yueguang's emotions.

But he is also very busy. While all the work is progressing steadily, he is also responsible for contacting the organizers of Xingcheng and preparing the PPT for the business trip report of the law forum.

I don't have time to please my girlfriend at all.

So, the two of them kept a little distance from each other in a subtle way.

You have to wait for a step to appear before you can break the ice again.

Friday on the highway heading to Star City.

"The branch venue is tomorrow morning!"

"It seems to be in the small conference room on the top floor."

Guan Yongyi said as he looked at the email he had just received on his computer.

"Oh, why is it arranged so far away? The main venue is on the second floor, right?"

"Yes, let's go up early. The elevator will definitely be crowded by then."

In the Coaster minibus, the graduate student who was talking to Guan Yongyi was called Liu Yingying, and she was a fellow student who came to the conference to help.

Guan Guan's mentor, Li Suying, brought a total of six students on this trip, mostly master's and doctoral students.

Although Lu Jincheng was one of the authors of the paper, most of the work was done by Guan Yongyi.

Like a senior named Gong Guanyu who was also in charge of liaison, Mr. Lu seemed to be here to join in the fun.

Everyone was chatting animatedly along the way. The law students' expressive abilities were generally excellent, with topics coming one after another and chattering non-stop.

Lu Jincheng sat in the back row, saying nothing.

After a while, Gong Guanyu came over and asked.

"What are you looking at, Xiao Lu, so seriously?"

When he saw Lu Jincheng holding Teacher Li Suying's research paper and reading it with great interest, he smiled.

"What are you pretending to be? You don't have to speak. We are just responsible for signing in and handing out materials. What do you have to show for yourself?"

This brings us to the point. Lu Jincheng and Gong Guanyu are purely responsible for miscellaneous tasks.

The man smiled and raised his eyebrows at Gong Guanyu: "Is it not okay for me to feel Guan's hard work?"

"School girl, are you tired?"

Gong Guanyu turned his head, looked at Guan Yongyi not far away with a smile, and asked.

"good."

The teasing from the familiar senior was like hitting a ball of cotton, and Guan Yongyi had a blank expression on his face.

After thinking about it, the short-haired girl added a sentence for the first time since Professor Li Suying was in the Coaster.

"It must be Professor Li's hard work to bring the paper to this event so that we can all get involved and see it in the public eye."

"Okay, with Guan's words, I feel relieved about tomorrow's sharing."

Li Suying, who was sitting in the front, also started laughing, and the crow's feet on her face curved into a small slit.

"I heard that Professor Liu from the School of Political Science and Law is coming this time too! He's a big shot in the industry!"

"Not only that, sister. In addition to Professor Liu, there is also the head of the Red Circle Institute. If you can submit your resume, you will graduate faster than others, right?"

"real or fake?"

"Of course. Last year, one of my senior students got a job at a prestigious research institute by publishing in a top journal and meeting some of the top academic leaders."

"Wow, that's awesome. I'll definitely perform well then."

"I heard that Professor Liu is very handsome and tall. Can I ask for his autograph?"

"It might work."

Li Suying understood the little girls' infatuation with some male teachers, so she laughed at them and said, "Look at the way you are, don't scare Professor Liu when the time comes."

"Oh, teacher, please don't say that. I'm already embarrassed and you still want to say that."

Li Suying is older and more easy-going on weekdays, so only Liu Yingying dares to act coquettishly in front of her.

"Don't worry, teacher. We won't do anything to Professor Liu."

Liu Yingying narrowed her eyes with an expectant expression.

"I won't look for you no matter what."

Gong Guanyu took advantage of the opportunity to speak.

"Get out of here!"

Everyone laughed together.

The Yangtze River Delta Law Forum was held in a magnificent five-star hotel in Star City.

After arriving at the lobby, the group happened to run into Professor Liu, who would later become famous, and was also checking in at the front desk.

Either shout it out or don't shout it out.

Mr. Lu couldn't understand what kind of mentality it was when a girl covered her mouth and screamed.

Looking at the middle-aged man who seems to be gentle and tall, but whose hair is a little shabby, I can't get what's so charming about him at all.

"What should I do? What should I do? I saw a living Professor Liu!"

Liu Yingying held onto her classmate's clothes with one hand and hugged her schoolmate Guan Yongyi with the other, she was so excited that she couldn't control herself.

And the same is true for Guan Yongyi.

After all, Professor Liu is a serious industry star. When I watch related videos on Bilibili, I often see him in various law exam courses, and I have also read many of his books.

"What to do, go say hello."

Li Suying smiled and strode towards Professor Liu Yang.

"Professor Liu, you're here so early!"

"Professor Li! You're welcome. I'm here to see you. If it weren't for your paper, I wouldn't be here."

Professor Liu Yang's eyes lit up and he was very enthusiastic.

"It just so happened that a legal examination institution here knew that I was coming for a meeting and wanted me to do some training, so I came here in advance."

"Oh, Professor Liu, you are too polite. Look at my students. They all come here for you and admire you."

As she spoke, Li Suying called Guan Yongyi, Liu Yingying and others.

"Come on, come on, say hello to Professor Liu."

"Professor Liu, I really like your criminal law class. I like and give coins to every video."

Liu Yingying took the lead and a lively and polite conversation ensued.

Lu Jincheng was carrying a lot of luggage and standing alone in the crowd.

Liu Yingying: "Professor Liu, can I add you on WeChat?"

Liu Yang: "No problem, come, I'll get this QR code."

After adding it, the senior student poked Guan Yongyi with her elbow and winked.

"Professor Liu, there's also this! My junior schoolmate is quite shy, and she likes you very much, too."

……

Afterwards, Li Suying led everyone to find the conference organizing committee and book a hotel room. While going upstairs to find their respective rooms, Liu Yingying was still intoxicated all the way.

"Oh my god, Professor Liu is so gentle. How can he be so nice? Tell me, how can he be so nice?"

Gong Guanyu also cooperated for the first time: "Yes, although she is not young, she is very charming."

Lu Jincheng didn't say a word along the way, helplessness and confusion were all over his face.

The short-haired girl saw him carrying something and standing silently in the crowd, so she came over and asked in a low voice.

"What's the matter? Are you jealous?"

The man was puzzled by the question and thought, why would I be jealous of an old man who added him on WeChat?

I wanted to say that it wasn't necessary, but when I opened my mouth I suddenly felt that I might as well accept the challenge, so I went along with it.

"Yeah, it makes me so jealous."

Guan Yongyi pursed her lips and said with a smile: "I don't want to add Professor Liu on WeChat."

"After all, I don't expect anyone to recommend a job for me after graduation."

Finally, when Li Suying assigned rooms, she arranged a special room for Guan Yongyi.

The suite can be used as an office for meetings, sharing, storing things, making preparations, etc.

She and Liu Yingying lived on the fourth floor, just next door to each other.

The rooms for the rest of the people were scattered on different floors, probably having been arranged by the conference organizing committee in advance.

The male students had to follow the crowd and lived in a room with Gong Guanyu on the eighth floor.

The next step is to arrange each person's tasks and do various preparations.

Apart from the on-site sign-in and distribution of things on the last day, Lu Jincheng was only arranged to attend the branch venue and did not even have the opportunity to go on stage.

Some students may take it very seriously, but Mr. Lu doesn’t care at all.

I knew it was just a trivial matter, and even wrote the thesis just to please Guan Yongyi.

Professor Li emphasized the importance again. After all, publishing in a top journal is indeed a great achievement in the academic circle.

The students naturally prepared seriously, Liu Yingying also stopped looking infatuated, and Gong Guanyu even practiced distributing materials in front of the mirror in his room, which made Lu Jincheng very amused, thinking that he was another honest child.

As for Guan Guan, she can even handle occasions like Miriam Yeung’s concert where thousands of people are paying attention.

As confident as ever, don't worry.

On the night of check-in, Lu Jincheng wanted to find Guan Yongyi, but had no chance.

Gong Guanyu asked him to have a midnight snack, and then said he wanted to go out for a walk.

Later, I went downstairs to borrow a charger from the front desk. When I went upstairs, I heard another elevator behind me, and it was Professor Liu who got up.

What a coincidence, it turns out he also lives on the eighth floor.

The only difference is that Lu Jincheng lives in a room deep in the corridor, while Professor Liu lives near the elevator.

There were two women accompanying him.

Mr. Lu was cautious and stopped at the corner of the corridor. When he saw the three of them enter the room together, he couldn't help but understand.

The two women no longer looked like students, but they seemed to be in their twenties. Perhaps they were also here to attend the conference.

It’s not that Mr. Lu is weird inside and everything seems wrong to him.

Maybe the dragon and two phoenixes in the room are indeed studying academic issues and promoting human progress.

But what?
But why do you have to bring fans of the opposite sex into the room? The world is so big. Hotels have lobbies and restaurants. There are cafes and fast food restaurants outside. Why can't you chat anywhere else but in the room, not to mention it's midnight.

He immediately complained to Guan Yongyi that he didn't expect Professor Liu to have this side.

Evening, conference hotel lobby.

After all, Lu Jincheng was responsible for logistics, so after dinner he found the hotel staff to make sure everything was safe.

"Are you sure that the PPT won't be copied by others?"

"Don't worry, this is not the first time our hotel has held a conference. We are definitely professional."

The guy working in the hotel said.

"We know that many teachers' information must be kept confidential. The conference organizing committee told me in advance that I can rest assured that only I can use the control console computer. No one outside the control room can enter or leave the computer. All information will be deleted after the meeting."

"no problem."

The young man swore solemnly.

Some of the papers selected for top journals have confidentiality regulations, and many teachers do not want their PPTs to be used by others.

The hotel naturally understands this.

The main venue is even more professional, with an independent control room to operate sound, lighting, large screen, etc.

That night, everyone borrowed the main venue and rehearsed on site.

The employee in charge stayed behind to work overtime and help with the images, sounds, and lighting control. After all, the main control room was really not open to outsiders.

Guan Yongyi and other classmates thanked him repeatedly, but the other party just smiled and said it was okay.

Professor Li was very satisfied with the rehearsal, and even General Manager Lu felt that it was foolproof.

But the problem still came.

On the first day of the forum, the guests from the legal field were more authoritative than each other, and the audience was crowding to get in.

Guests entered, guests took their seats, and all guests were present.

The legal forum hosted by Xingcheng and co-organized by other cities in the Yangtze River Delta officially began.

"My mother is here too."

In the corner of the last few rows, Guan Yongyi and Lu Jincheng sat side by side, whispering to each other.

"Huh? Which one?"

Lu Jincheng had heard of her name for a long time, but had never met this extremely controlling aunt.

"Now let me introduce you to this."

As soon as Guan Yongyi finished speaking, the host started introducing the next important guest.

"Lawyer Lin Lifen, head of Yangcheng Junhe Law Firm, welcome everyone!"

Applause broke out, and Liu Yingying and Gong Guanyu, who were sitting upright, were whispering to each other.

"Lawyer Lin has strong professional skills and is recognized as a cold-faced master in the industry, but he is also generous with his money. If I can join Junhe after graduation, my life will be fulfilled."

"I don't know why she came. Guangzhou is so far away from the Yangtze River Delta. She usually only goes to the Pearl River Delta to participate in activities. She is so busy, I don't understand."

"This is an opportunity!"

Gong Guanyu's eyes widened and his tone was excited.

"Go and hand in your resume!"

the other side.

"Interview, are you nervous when your mother comes to see you share uninvited?"

Lu Jincheng leaned close to the short-haired girl's ear and teased.

“A little bit, actually.”

Guan Yongyi bit his lower lip and nodded slightly.

"Can I help you relieve it?"

“How to relieve it?”

According to the convention in the circle, the leader’s speech on the stage is an indispensable, long and boring segment.

Taking advantage of the gap between speeches by the leaders present at the meeting, Lu Jincheng in the back row tugged at the other person's sleeve and pointed outside the meeting room.

The man pulled Guan Yongyi and went straight to the stairwell.

There was no one around, but I could faintly hear the sound of a microphone next to my ear.

"The holding of this conference heralds the improvement of the theoretical level of law in the Yangtze River Delta region."

The short-haired girl was still wondering how to relieve the pain.

The man pulled her neatly ironed shirt over, held her graceful jawline, and kissed her cherry lips.

The sunset glows, and autumn waves surge.
