The strongest brain in the universe
Chapter 588 Firm
The banquet is a good banquet, and the people are all kind and decent people.
Jiang Hui accompanied the father and son to have a warm dinner, and there were no other messy topics at the dinner table as usual. On the contrary, she keenly felt that this man's attitude towards her seemed to have some subtle changes.
Of course, it's not getting worse, but better, mild and unabated, but a little more intimate.
When Commander Zhou wanted to respect the corporals, he could really do it naturally, without any artificial traces. The other party really deserves to be Zhou Xiuwen's father, who came from the same source, Zhou Xiuwen still has something to learn.
But at the same time, Jiang Hui also saw the true state of this elder, the one who was not covering up, and the other party seemed to have no intention of covering up in front of her.
He was thinner than the last time we met, obviously there was no room for him to lose any more weight, but every time we met, it would make people feel that the other party had become weak, and now it seemed that there was really only a bone left.
Although his face was pale and his spirit was tired from working hard lately, his attitude was still very gentle. Really, if he hadn't seen the fierce and powerful side of the other party, he would have thought that this was a good uncle with a weak body.
He urges the children to eat seriously and share with them the delicious food that he thinks is good, with a few homely words in between, as if getting along with his nephew at home.
Although there were only the three of them who really had dinner together, Zhou Yuanjing still had people around him, except for Faria, who were all Zhou Yuanjing's direct confidants, and they all watched Zhou Xiuwen grow up.
They feel...their young master is too young to pretend to be mature. I don't know how long I haven't seen him with such an immature look. As for being so happy?
But they also know that Zhou Xiuwen's pressure has indeed increased a lot in recent years. The pressure from all parties has accumulated on his shoulders one by one, and he has gradually discarded some of his own things in order to grow.
Although from the perspective of their subordinates, it is a happy thing for their successors to become mature, reliable and deterrent.
But in the same way, they are also the ones who watched Zhou Xiuwen grow up, and they are not happy to see the other party suppressing themselves like this. After all, it's disgraceful to force a child to grow up with a broken bone to do something that a grown-up should do—it makes them feel incompetent.
But it is also true that what they need now is what their legion needs most.
There was not much time to allow the other party to grow at a normal pace, even if they were unwilling to admit it, but with the arrival of the day when Zhou Yuanjing completely weakened, they finally reached this step.
Deliberately, they even began to distinguish themselves from Zhou Xiuwen as monarchs and ministers. Now that they are high-ranking members of the party, they stand on the side to receive Jiang Hui's visitor, which can be seen, because Jiang Hui is a friend invited by Zhou Xiuwen, and to a certain extent, it is also a network he has expanded for his future.
It would be the same if Huan Xian was here today.
The warm dinner is over, and the rest is naturally gossip.
With her previous experience, Jiang Hui didn't appear impatient. She looked at the tea served in a daze.
And the father and son above picked up the teacup in a similar gesture that they didn't realize, and took a sip.
But the young ones are really serious about tasting the fragrance of tea leaves, while the elders are ulterior motives. He glanced over, and besides his son who seemed to be a little dumbfounded after eating too much, he also saw Jiang Hui's calm appearance.
The child looked a lot more stable.
He took the handkerchief that Faria handed over in time, and twirled his fingertips. What a good seedling.
"I heard from Xiaowen that you haven't finished your level exam yet." Zhou Yuanjing found a topic that was relatively easy to break into, but this is indeed something that Jiang Hui is more concerned about at the moment.
So she took up the conversation naturally, and said with a bitter face: "You have heard about it too." It seems that this matter...
Why do you say that? Because Zhou Yuanjing knew and described it as unfinished. If it was simply to postpone the exam or to contribute in another form, the other party would probably have said it directly, and would not have used a known result to question her back. So nine times out of ten, news came out, but the higher-ups hadn't figured out what to do with it.
It hasn't been resolved... It's been more than 20 days, and it looks like it will be more than a month, and there is no result of the discussion. Whether to take the test or not, to retake the test or to make up the test, to count or not to count, there must be an explanation, right?
Regardless of the outcome, it felt really bad to have them half-suspended like this. Jiang Hui would rather the other party come out with a result immediately, even if it is not good, it is considered a closure.
"Students just wanted to finish the exam quickly, but they didn't expect to encounter so many things."
Zhou Yuanjing couldn't help shaking his head and laughing after hearing this: "So unconfident? With your ability, if you don't pass the A-level exam, I'm sorry for your performance these days."
Jiang Hui: "...It's just a fluke." Damn, what is Commander Zhou talking about, praising her for being amazing? But how to show how powerful she is, because she saved people or killed star beasts? Somewhat flattered.
It seems neither. Jiang Hui herself didn't think it was a big deal, so in the end she could only say, "You're joking."
Unexpectedly, the elder shook his head: "Don't be too modest, I read your files and records, it's really amazing. Five life-related rescues in three years, you can do such good deeds at a young age, It's not unusual at all."
Jiang Hui didn't think he was anything special. However, it was a little surprising to hear the other party say that she had saved people five times in three years. It turned out that she had already had so many intersections with this new world. Jiang Hui was actually relieved to be able to save so many lives in this strange world.
Young master, this friend is really mature and not at all like an impulsive young man. Are all the kids nowadays so powerful?
Seeing Jiang Hui's modest and generous response, the elder was quite emotional: "I see that you have grown a lot, and you are stronger than before. It seems that the question that troubled you a few years ago has been answered. .”
Jiang Hui nodded silently. But this time she didn't say yes or no, because the answer was already in their hearts, so there was no need to say it. Presumably this elder already has the answer.
Firm and stable, talented, doesn't like to commit crimes, and has a clear mind. Apart from lack of experience and a little courage, the other party can be said to be the type of person he likes and admires. Pity……
"I trouble you to take care of my disappointing son these years. Although he sometimes likes to commit crimes, he is indeed a good boy." Zhou Yuanjing sighed with a smile, completely ignoring his own son's appearance.
