Starting by picking up a female fan, he swept through the martial arts world.

"Su Yunchang?"

Seeing that the others' reactions were a bit off, Jiang Yi asked in a low voice, "Dad, I've never heard of this Professor Su before?"

Jiang Lang was also somewhat curious: "Is this Professor Su very famous?"

"this……"

Jiang Tai and Si Hong looked at each other in bewilderment.

A hint of annoyance flashed across Si Hongmei's face. She snatched the letter of appointment from Jiang Lang's hand, saw Su Yunchang's name on it, and quickly checked the seal on it.

Then, his complexion became increasingly unpleasant.

Jiang Tai couldn't help but ask, "Is this true?"

"real!"

Si Hong's expression was somewhat stiff.

Jiang Tai couldn't help but smile: "Ah Lang, you're really lucky! This Professor Su used to be a pillar of Qida University, often outshining Professor Hu. Later... due to some changes, he didn't take on any students for a long time. I didn't expect him to come back this year."

Hey!

Jiang Lang was also pleasantly surprised. He hadn't expected Bai Zhaoli to have such strong connections. This chuunibyou girl was too sincere.

It's no wonder he didn't have a strong impression of the name. He only found out about his advisor on the university's official website when he was about to graduate. It's normal that he didn't know Su Yunchang had been retired for so long.

Jiang Tai couldn't help but ask, "Ah Lang, how did you get close to Professor Su?"

Jiang Lang answered honestly, "As I just said, he really appreciates my paper."

Putting aside his relationship with Bai Zhaoli, Su Yunchang did indeed appreciate his thesis, at least that's how he appeared to be.

Jiang Tai choked for a moment, not knowing how to respond.

Si Hong stood up, snorted, and left.

Jiang Zhu didn't want to stay there any longer, so he got up and followed.

Jiang Tai glanced at her departing figure, his smile fading slightly, but he still patted Jiang Lang on the shoulder: "Following Professor Su and learning well will definitely lead to a bright future! However, Professor Su is in a somewhat awkward situation; there might be some problems with the project funding. If you want to climb the ladder, you'll definitely need Aunt Hong's support. Try to maintain a good relationship with her in the future."

"Why!"

"Let me tell you some things to be aware of after you get into Qida University."

"Please speak."

……

Si Hong made her way to the training room.

As soon as I entered the room, I swung a whip kick at the carbon fiber sandbag.

There was a loud "bang," and the whole room seemed to shake.

Jiang Zhu, his face filled with jealousy, couldn't help but curse, "Jiang Lang really got lucky, and Su Yunchang is blind to have done that..."

"Snapped!"

A slap landed.

Jiang Zhu covered her face, looking at Si Hong with a mixture of confusion and fear: "Mom?"

Si Hong glared at him: "Have you been cooped up at home for too long and lost your spirit? You're a grown man, why are you always acting like a woman, jealous and gossiping? Why don't you use that time to cultivate yourself a bit more?"

"I……"

Jiang Zhu was stunned, thinking to himself, "Weren't you angry too?"

Si Hong seemed to see right through him: "I'm angry because this bastard is a threat to our position in the family. What's the use of you being jealous? You've been at Qida for so long, what have you accomplished? No wonder Yang Yu looks down on you!"

Jiang Zhu was somewhat embarrassed. Although his move to the school's administrative position was only a temporary measure during a low period, his performance over the past few years had indeed made Si Hong somewhat dissatisfied.

He had no way to refute it, and his status at home plummeted after the divorce.

To turn their lives around, they need to rely on their parents' resources, which means the mother-son relationship is no longer like that of ordinary families.

That's why he tries so hard to please Si Hong.

Today, my attempt to flatter backfired.

Si Hong glared at him: "Think back carefully to what made you so high and mighty before. A man should act like a man. Your father has been promoted, and he'll find you opportunities sooner or later, but these kinds of opportunities aren't something women can seize!"

"yes!"

"Go back and reflect on your actions!"

"Then, Mom, I'm leaving."

I watched Jiang Zhu leave.

Si Hong crossed her arms and stared coldly at the night view outside the window.

I don't know how much time had passed when there was a knock on the door.

She scoffed, "Go in!"

"Oh, my wife!"

Jiang Tai walked in with a big laugh: "Still angry?"

Si Hong glanced at him: "Director Jiang is quite capable, he even managed to get Su Yunchang to come?"

Jiang Tai quickly explained, "I'm just a peasant, where would I get such connections?"

"Then tell me, what's the deal with that employment letter?"

"Didn't Ah Lang say that Su Yunchang admires his thesis...?"

"Why don't you repeat it again and listen to yourself?"

"..."

Jiang Tai was also a little confused. Although he came from a peasant background, he still had his own aesthetic standards.

Jiang Lang's graduation thesis was written entirely in plain language, which even he could understand. What good could it be?

But how do you explain this?

Given Su Yunchang's rank and high standards for academics, even the strongest connections wouldn't allow him to take on such trivial tasks, especially considering his return to public life after years of retirement.

Even if Bai Heng personally intervenes, he might not be able to persuade him.

After all, most of the shares in Qipu were in the hands of foreigners, and the Bai family was not the only warlord in Yunjin.

Normally, when they met, Su Yunchang might be polite to Bai Heng, but he would never try to curry favor with him.

That's strange, so very strange.

Jiang Tai couldn't understand, so he could only continue to explain: "Wife! Think about it, even I, a director, am suspected of taking advantage of a loophole. If even a military commander couldn't persuade someone, how could I possibly do that?"

"this……"

Si Hong hesitated. It would be an exaggeration to say that she got the position of director by chance, since Jiang Tai had also climbed up to the position of deputy director through his own abilities.

But he was indeed lucky, because there was more than one deputy director. Jiang Tai was able to get the position mainly because his faction was strong enough, and he just happened to be in that position. Compared to people, the timing and location played a bigger role.

Jiang Tai smiled awkwardly but politely: "Isn't this good? We didn't have to use your favor, and A Lang has a good future. If you really don't like him, just leave him alone. I'll find other ways to help him."

Si Hong rolled her eyes at him: "You're just trying to play the victim with me, aren't you? He's already in jail. If I don't help him, won't you hold a grudge against me for the rest of your life?"

"You're still the best!"

"However, let me be frank from the start: Su Yunchang is in an awkward position. No matter how strong his academic level is, he can't possibly have more influence than Hu Bingtian. I can't turn a rags into a rags on my own. So it still depends on A Lang's performance. If he doesn't have the ability, I can only choose to protect my reputation."

"Good! You're the most understanding one."

Jiang Tai smiled apologetically, but inwardly he was lamenting his misfortune. Where did Jiang Lang get his abilities?

……

Jiang Yi was in a good mood after learning that Jiang Lang had successfully applied for the job.

Since the special training had just ended and I had nothing to do, I pestered Jiang Lang to watch a soap opera from the old era.

To be fair, the movie was of average quality, but the siblings hadn't spent time together in a long time, and Jiang Yi enjoyed it very much. She wanted to watch another one, but when she looked at the time, it was already getting late, and she had to go to school to register the next day, so she reluctantly went back to her room to sleep.

Jiang Lang's room had already been vacated; it was much larger than the maid's room. Without further ado, we simply carried our luggage over.

After washing up, he lay in bed, feeling quite relaxed.

After thinking about it, he took out his phone and sent Bai Zhaoli a message: The mentor you found for me is too awesome!

No reply.

I fiddled with my phone for half an hour, but still no reply.

This chuunibyou girl suddenly seems to have become aloof.

Woman, are you playing hard to get with me?

do not care.

sleep!
