Chapter 171

The name on the inscription is very familiar. Tao Fengche only saw it on the official website of Z University not long ago——Eleanor Bocival, a professor at the School of Life Sciences at Z University. His main research field is molecular vaccinology, with remarkable achievements , enjoying a high reputation internationally.

The reason Tao Fengche saw this name was precisely because Eleanor Percival just published a new paper a week ago, which happened to be on the first article of "Latest Scientific Research Achievements" on the University Z official website.

Next month will be the life science summit in country A. Tao Fengche really can't think of any special friendship between the Tao family and Eleanor Bocival, so that she was spared from her busy schedule to write this for him. A sincere letter of recommendation.

Tao Fengche took the letter paper in his hand, turned it over and over for a while, but still couldn't find any clues, almost suspected that this was a clumsy prank.

But... how is it possible?

He no longer wanted to take a shower, sat down at the desk, turned on the computer, entered "Eleanor Bocival" in the search box, and sent Jing Ning a message, asking him if he had any relationship with this professor. No personal relationship.

A long list of news reports appeared on the page, most of which were related to Eleanor Bocival's newly published papers and the summits she had attended, without any answers that Tao Fengche wanted.

When he was in distress, his phone ding-dong, and Jing Ning's reply came.

[Jing Ning]: [I have seen it several times at the summit, but I am not very familiar with it. ]

[Jing Ning]: [Do you want to enter her laboratory? ]

This answer was really beyond Tao Fengche's expectation. He frowned slightly, feeling that the mystery surrounding this letter of recommendation was getting bigger and bigger, but he still summed up the matter in a few words, hoping that Jing Ning could give some clues .

[Tao Fengche]: [No, although they belong to the same category, I am still more interested in the synthesis of new antibiotics. ]

【Tao Fengche】: [I just received a letter of recommendation from her, but I really don't remember any friendship with her at home, I thought it was you who helped lead the line. ]

[Jing Ning]: [Since I promised to help you write a letter of recommendation, I won't go to extra lengths to help you find someone else, I don't have such free time. ]

[Jing Ning]: [However, if you say that you have a good relationship with her so that she can help write a recommendation for a student she has never met before, I know someone. ]

【Tao Fengche】: [Who? ]

【Jing Ning】: [Angelo Victor. ]

The flame of hope that had just been ignited was instantly extinguished by a basin of cold water. Tao Fengche frowned and thought for a moment, then typed a reply with some uncertainty.

【Tao Fengche】: [You mean... that economist from Country A? ]

[Jing Ning]: [Yes.He is also the doctoral supervisor of X University Business School. ]

Tao Fengche thought for a while, then suddenly his eyes widened.

Many scattered clues are connected together, pointing to the almost impossible answer——

【Tao Fengche】: [He is Sui Yuesheng's mentor? ! ]

[Jing Ning]: [To be precise, he is one of the mentors.Sui Yuesheng had completed two master's degrees in X major at that time, and he studied finance with him. ]

Although he had vaguely deduced it, when this possibility was confirmed by Jing Ning, Tao Fengche still froze in place.

It was as if there was a deep and distant bell ringing in his ears, his heart experienced several accelerations and sudden stops, and his brain went blank, like a dead robot.

What finally brought Tao Fengche back to his mind was a crisp notification sound.

He looked at the phone screen, and Dean Jing added another sentence with the rigorous attitude of a scientific researcher.

[Jing Ning]: [But this is just my guess, maybe there are others. ]

Who else? !

The envelope was empty, and it was obvious at a glance that it was not sent by normal mail.What's more, Tao Fengche has been studying in the study on the third floor recently. Even if someone really came to Tao's house to send him a letter of recommendation, the servant would immediately take it to the study instead of putting it in the library. his bedroom.

This envelope appeared suddenly, and he didn't receive any hints about the matchmaker. Such an awkward way of caring... Apart from Sui Yuesheng, Tao Fengche really couldn't think of any other answer.

Tao Fengche's heart was instantly filled with sweetness, he took several deep breaths in a row, but his typing hands still trembled slightly.

【Tao Fengche】: [I see.I'm bothering you tonight, please don't tell brother that I came to see you. ]

Jing Ning smiled, glanced at the screen, and after confirming that there were no mistakes or omissions, signed an electronic signature at the last position, opened the mailbox and clicked send.

[Jing Ning]: [OK.I have written the recommendation letter and sent it to your mailbox, remember to check it. ]

【Tao Fengche】: [Okay, thank you Dean Jing. ]

As soon as the message was sent, Tao Fengche logged off.Jing Ning stared at his instantly darkened profile picture for a while, then reached out and stroked his chin, feeling the rare desire to watch the excitement.

After pondering for a while, out of friendship, he clicked on Sui Yuesheng's dialog box and sent a line of words.

[Jing Ning]: [He knows. ]

A sentence without beginning or end is not a violation of the promise to Tao Fengche.

After a while, Sui Yuesheng's reply came back.

[Born with the moon]: [. ]

Jing Ning stared at the full stop where everything was silent for a while, and the smile on the corner of her mouth gradually deepened.

···

After Tao Fengche pressed send, he quickly exited the chat software, took the letter of recommendation he knew so well in his hand, and read it word by word several times.

With his grades and social practice experience, the recommendation letter written by Jing Ning is completely sufficient.

Tao Fengche really didn't expect that Sui Yuesheng would ask his mentor to find a relationship and ask Eleanor Bocival to write him an extra letter on the premise of knowing this.

Is it because he is afraid that Jing Ning will forget about it when he gets busy, or because he cares about it and wants to give him as many bargaining chips as possible?

If it had been before when the two hadn't talked about it, Tao Fengche might have felt a little bit of resentment, thinking that Sui Yuesheng really did everything in order to send him abroad, but now...

Tao Fengche involuntarily read the letter again, the corners of his mouth raised uncontrollably, his heart beat so fast that he lost his balance.

——Sui Yuesheng...how is he so nice?

It was so good that Tao Fengche felt a little unconfident for the first time—how could he be so liked by Sui Yuesheng?

Tao Fengche took several deep breaths in a row, folded the letter paper carefully and put it in the envelope, held it in his hands and ran upstairs in three steps at a time.

There was a sound of hurried footsteps on the corridor, Sui Yuesheng's heart sank, and he quickly glanced at the closed door, with a trace of strong uneasiness in his eyes, but at the moment Tao Fengche opened the door, he retracted his gaze and looked back. projected onto the screen.

With a calm face, he wrote his comments like flying with his fingers, as if he didn't notice Tao Fengche's going back and forth.

Tao Fengche stared at Sui Yuesheng for a while, suppressed a laugh, and cleared his throat softly: "Ahem."

After a long while, Sui Yuesheng finally raised his eyes, and gave him a merciful look: "What's wrong?"

Tao Fengche didn't speak, he went straight to Sui Yuesheng, and waved the envelope in his hand in front of his eyes: "Big brother bought this for me, right?"

Sui Yuesheng's eyes turned around on the envelope that he personally sealed not long ago, and his tone was calm: "If you give it to you, you will keep it."

As if it was just a little effort.

Tao Fengche was choked by Sui Yuesheng, but he didn't take it seriously—in fact, his heart was as soft as a cloud now, and he felt that he liked Sui Yuesheng so much that he didn't know what to do up.

He subconsciously glanced at the computer screen, a little surprised.In just two sentences, Sui Yuesheng had already opened a new file and looked at it.

How much love does this have to do?

"Mr. Sui is really domineering." Tao Fengche was a little helpless, and muttered in a low voice.

Sui Yuesheng froze for a moment, paused his index finger on the mouse wheel, and the scrolling files on the screen also stopped.

When Tao Fengche said that, did he think he was taking too much control?

That's right, Tao Fengche had already contacted Jing Ning, Jing Ning's letter of recommendation was enough, but he himself was worried, so he asked his mentor for help...

Sui Yuesheng pursed his lips uncomfortably.

The uneasiness that he had suppressed forcibly resurfaced quietly again, and with it, there was also a slight trace of regret.

...Will Tao Fengche feel that he doesn't trust him anymore?

Sui Yuesheng was full of thoughts, but at the same time, there was a very soft touch on his cheek, which could be broken with one touch.

——It was Tao Fengche's lips.

The young alpha sneaked up to him and kissed him on the cheek: "It's exactly the same as the domineering president on TV."

Sui Yuesheng turned his head in astonishment, met Tao Fengche's smiling eyes, and realized belatedly that Tao Fengche was teasing him.

Embarrassed and the urge to beat someone up together, Sui Yuesheng ground his teeth, let go of the mouse with his right hand, and rubbed his thumb and index finger for a moment.

Seeing that the situation was not right, Tao Fengche hurriedly interrupted: "Is this the second phase test of that project last time?"

The topic changed a little quickly, Sui Yuesheng was still immersed in the emotions just now, and he was a little puzzled when he heard the words: "Huh?"

Tao Fengche gestured to his screen with his eyes: "Director Wang is working on a new medicine."

"Yes." Sui Yuesheng nodded.

"What's the situation now? Brother, please tell me."

When it came to work, Sui Yuesheng felt much more at ease in an instant, and after a slight nod, he briefly summarized the experimental results to Tao Fengche.

After all, Tao Fengche had studied in the academy for so long, and now he intentionally changed the subject, asking one after another, Sui Yuesheng answered more, his shame and annoyance gradually faded, and he began to feel that he was a bit annoying.

Just when Sui Yuesheng was thinking about how to drive people away without leaving any traces, Tao Fengche had already opened his mouth very knowingly and wittily.

"Don't disturb your work, I'm going to take a shower."

"Okay, you go to bed early."

Sui Yuesheng couldn't wait for Tao Fengche's departure.

Tao Fengche stared at Sui Yuesheng's expressionless side face for a while, it was really funny and helpless - Wang Yuan told him before that many people think that everyone's pheromone smell has something to do with their personality, He still doesn't believe it, but now looking at the living example of Sui Yuesheng, he feels that this statement seems to be quite reasonable.

Sui Yuesheng is really exactly like a lychee:

The lychees are hard and thorny on the outside, only when you peel off the skin can you know how sweet it is inside; Suiyue is cold and cold, like an unattainable moon, if it weren't for those things before, Tao Fengche would have given him all the courage I can't believe it, Sui Yuesheng likes him.

So my previous reaction was completely fine!

Tao Fengche cried loudly for himself in his heart.

Just looking at Sui Yuesheng's performance, who can find that he likes him!

Sooner or later, Sui Yuesheng will be embarrassed to death by himself.

Tao Fengche thought about it, stared at Sui Yuesheng for a while, and suddenly said, "Brother, look at me."

"What do you want to do again?" Sui Yuesheng frowned slightly, his tone was a little impatient, but he still turned his head and looked over.

When he put on such an expression, even Assistant Zhou, who had been with him for many years, would feel palpitations, but Tao Fengche bent down with a smile, kissed his lips, and with some dexterity, separated them with the tip of his tongue. Touched his lips, all the way into the mouth.

The sound of sticky water rang out in the room, Sui Yuesheng was a little dizzy from being kissed, and his breathing was also disordered.There seemed to be a sticky paste in his mind, tightly clinging his thoughts, the remaining consciousness struggled to ring the alarm, urging him to reach out and push Tao Fengche away——

I haven't read the document yet, if Tao Fengche is allowed to make a fuss here, it will not end well.

But at the same time, Tao Fengche suddenly sucked the tip of his tongue, as if he was licking a hard-earned candy.Sui Yuesheng's heart fluttered, and she couldn't lift her rejecting hand no matter what.

After a while, Tao Fengche backed away slightly panting, and looked at Sui Yuesheng from top to bottom with explicit eyes, like a beast that hasn't eaten for a long time.

But he just lowered his head and kissed Sui Yuesheng's lips lightly, with a very cherished attitude and great heart, as if the violent attack just now was just a dream.

This kind of soft touch makes Sui Yuesheng soft-hearted, no one can refuse the intimacy of being held in the palm of someone he likes, even Sui Yuesheng can't.

He opened his lips slightly and wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Tao Fengche.

"I'll get you hot milk, don't stay up too late, go to bed early."

Before he finished speaking, Tao Fengche turned around and walked away, seemingly without any thought.If Sui Yuesheng hadn't caught a glimpse of the sizeable bulge between his legs and his slightly hasty pace, he would have been fooled by him.

The door was gently closed, Sui Yuesheng's eyelashes trembled, and his fingertips stroked the slightly swollen lips that had been kissed by Tao Fengche. After a while, he pursed his lower lip uncomfortably.
