1979: My fiancée is a goddess

Chapter 181 News and the Manuscript is Finally Finished
The lights in the Peking University auditorium were on, but the seats that were crowded just now were now empty.

Only a few famous professors in the academic world were chatting with Jiang Ting about related issues in the front. Cheng Kaiyan turned around when she heard this strange yet familiar female voice.

An exquisite little face appeared before his eyes. He was wearing a white shirt, black trousers, and a pair of leather shoes. His entire body was spotlessly clean.

It’s so clean that you can just put it in your mouth without having to wash it.

It turned out to be her, Ning Wanjia.

Cheng Kaiyan retracted her gaze in time and said calmly, "Your third aunt is chatting with the professors in the front."

Although the girl was very pretty and delicate, he didn't want to have anything to do with her.

"Ah."

Ning Wanjia looked in the direction his finger pointed and, as expected, found Jiang Ting among the crowd at the podium.

Peking University posted the lecture notice a few days in advance. Ning Wanjia naturally didn't want to miss Jiang Ting's first lecture. After listening to it for an hour or two, she felt bored and went to tinker with her own design drawings.

Besides, she came here with other tasks this time.

The two stood together, one in front of the other, waiting for Jiang Ting. Because they were not familiar with each other and their first impression was not good, the atmosphere was a little quiet.

"You can leave now. I have something to discuss with my aunt."

Ning Wanjia turned around and instructed Cheng Kaiyan with a calm expression.

The girl looked down upon him, even a little bossy.

"Just discuss it."

Cheng Kaiyan only said one sentence, then turned her head away and ignored her.

Such an attitude and tone made Ning Wanjia feel a little unhappy. She snorted coldly and turned her head to the other side, as if Cheng Kaiyan would dirty her eyes.

The two of them just stood there without paying any attention to each other. Since the lecture had just ended not long ago, more than 20 minutes had passed and they were still chatting.

Ning Wanjia got tired of waiting, so she found a seat and sat down, then took out a can of yogurt from her bag. She held the straw in her mouth and began to suck it happily. Her cheeks puffed up as she sucked, and her bright eyes narrowed in pleasure, forming a crescent shape. Then she swallowed the yogurt in her mouth with a gulp.

Seeing this, Cheng Kaiyan couldn't help but feel a surge in his throat. Seeing Ning Wanjia drinking so happily, he also wanted to drink.

Who understands the feeling of drinking yogurt in June? !
"Humph!"

Ning Wanjia noticed his gaze, and holding the milk can with both hands as if protecting food, she turned her body to the side, with her back facing Cheng Kaiyan.

Cheng Kaiyan: “…”

After waiting for more than ten minutes, Jiang Ting finally came in with a bag in her hand, "Kaiyan, let's go home and cook."

The beautiful woman was a little tired after several hours of lectures in the morning. Her originally cold voice became a little hoarse, but it was not unpleasant. On the contrary, this magnetic voice had a unique charm.

"Ah."

Cheng Kaiyan nodded and took the briefcase from her hand and carried it.

"Third Aunt! You finally finished. I've been waiting for you for a long time."

Ning Wanjia held the milk can in her arms and said complainingly.

A little person suddenly appeared in front of her, and Jiang Ting noticed that her good niece was also here. "You are here too. Peking University also notified me of the lecture early."

"Yes, I came here specially to see you. I have something important to tell you."

Ning Wanjia glanced at Cheng Kaiyan and signaled Jiang Ting to tell him to get out.

"Kaiyan is not an outsider, just tell me what you have to say."

Jiang Ting looked back and forth between the two of them and said casually.

Ever since Cheng Kaiyan and Liu Xiaoli confessed to him, Jiang Ting has been worrying about how to tell Tang Minghua and Ning Wanjia about this.

However, there was no intersection between the two people, and their first impression of each other was not good, so Jiang Ting was not worried about anything happening between them.

Ning Wanjia didn't know that Cheng Kaiyan had a boyfriend. Jiang Ting originally planned to tell her directly, but after thinking about it carefully, she gave up.

Just pretend it didn't happen...

"Forget it, we'll talk about it later. Oh, by the way! My aunt brought back some new coffee beans from the United States, so I brought two cans here specially. I'll make some for you later."

Ning Wanjia walked forward, put her arm around Jiang Ting, and said with a smile.

No matter what happens, say the good things first, then the bad things.

"This……"

Jiang Ting glanced at Cheng Kaiyan. Cheng Kaiyan was the one who cooked at noon, so she naturally asked for his opinion.

Seeing him nodded, I agreed.

The three of them walked out of the auditorium and came to the bicycle shed. Ning Wanjia then realized that Cheng Kaiyan was still following them. "Why are you following us? We are all going home. If you want to eat, go eat by yourself."

"Going back to your house?"

"of course not!"

Ning Wanjia said with a frown.

"That's it."

Cheng Kaiyan rolled her eyes, speechless, then changed her mind and said deliberately: "I forgot to tell you, I have been living with my aunt recently."

live together?
Ning Wanjia's beautiful eyes widened, and she quickly looked at Jiang Ting, "Is this true?"

"Well, Kaiyan and I have important research work to do recently, so he came to stay for a while to facilitate communication..."

Jiang Ting found it funny to see her obviously jealous look on her face.

After getting Jiang Ting's clear answer, Ning Wanjia looked at her with indignation in her eyes.

You know, she had begged Jiang Ting to let her live with her and go to class with her, but she didn't expect that she didn't agree.

How come it’s enough to just come to the person in front of me?
unfair!
"So what? Just because he lives there, I won't go there? This is my third aunt's house, not his!"

The girl crossed her arms and said proudly.

The three of them rode their bikes and arrived home in a short while.

It was just twelve o'clock at this time. As soon as she entered the house, Cheng Kaiyan went straight to the kitchen to cook.

Although I didn't do anything in the morning, I was still very hungry.

"Is he the one who cooks?"

Ning Wanjia curled her lips, thought about Jiang Ting's cooking skills, and felt that this arrangement made sense.

Humph, I'll try his cooking later. If it doesn't taste good...

Look how I criticize him!

An hour later, Cheng Kaiyan came out with four dishes.

Spicy and sour potato shreds, a braised fish, a plate of fried pork with peppers, and a bowl of seaweed egg drop soup.

As the dishes were just served, Ning Wanjia sniffed. She was a little surprised by the aroma. Jiang Ting was also very satisfied when looking at the four dishes.

The two waited for Cheng Kaiyan to come out and sit down before they started to pick up the food with their chopsticks.

However, Cheng Kaiyan quickly blocked Ning Wanjia's chopsticks and asked, "Did I let you eat?"

"you!"

Ning Wanjia was stunned for a moment, and then her expression kept changing.

My first reaction was annoyance, followed by feeling aggrieved and unhappy.

"I don't want to eat anymore! Third Aunt, look at him!"

The girl was so angry that she slammed her chopsticks on the table and her chest heaved up and down.

It's a pity that her chest is flat and smooth.

"Thank you for not eating."

Cheng Kaiyan didn't care at all and even thanked her for not eating.

"Ahem... Let's eat, stop making noise."

Jiang Ting had a headache and gave the order impatiently with a cold face.

It was obvious that the three dishes and one soup on the table were for three people. Usually, Cheng Kaiyan only cooked two dishes, one meat and one vegetable.

This is another tsundere.

Fortunately, these two people are not together, otherwise she would be worried to death.

"Thank you, aunt."

Ning Wanjia said with a smile, as if her previous emotions were all pretended.

After saying this, he raised his chin proudly towards Cheng Kaiyan.

After lunch at noon, Cheng Kaiyan went back to her room to take a nap without caring about anything else.

Anyway, he doesn't wash the dishes, so it's up to anyone to wash them or not.

"Jia Jia, please help wash the dishes."

Jiang Ting patiently persuaded Ning Wanjia in the living room and pulled her into the kitchen.

ten minutes later.

After washing the dishes, they returned to their room to rest.

When passing by Cheng Kaiyan's door, Ning Wanjia looked at the door unhappily.

She felt like she had a conflict with Cheng Kaiyan. She was angrier when she saw him than she had been in the past few months.

The room was silent.

Ning Wanjia finally had the chance to be alone with Jiang Ting, and they both took off their outer clothes and trousers.

Lying side by side in bed taking a nap.

"Third Aunt, my uncle will be back soon." "Yes."

"You know, it was grandma who made many calls to the front line, not allowing him to come back. Grandma also didn't allow you two... She also said that even if the divorce report was filed, she would call you two back."

Ning Wanjia lay on the bed, her eyes were confused and her voice was a little low.

To be honest, she didn't want Jiang Ting and her uncle to divorce, but this was a decision they had made long ago, and she knew that their marriage was not happy.

After the divorce, she and Jiang Ting had no relationship anymore.

But if they don't divorce, is it going to be like this for the rest of my life for Jiang Ting, who has watched me grow up and treated me so well?

She hopes her third aunt lives a happy life.

So when Ning Wanjia learned the news two days ago, she hurried over to inform Jiang Ting.

"What's the point if she disagrees? Haha, this is between him and me."

Jiang Ting sneered and said sarcastically.

"You know, she is a very important person. Not to mention sending back the divorce report, someone came before she even submitted it."

Ning Wanjia sighed. In her opinion, her grandmother was at least one-third responsible for the breakdown of Jiang Ting and her third uncle's marriage.

He has a strong personality and sticks to his word.

Although he loves his youngest son Ning Ruzheng very much, he is somewhat harsh towards others.

"She can't decide."

Jiang Ting shook her head firmly, "I know about this matter, you don't have to worry about it, this is a matter between adults."

"I'll tip you off. I feel like grandma will definitely find a time to send someone to talk to you."

Ning Wanjia giggled and buried her face in Jiang Ting's body and rubbed it against her.

"Hehe... follow her."

The sound of their conversation gradually faded away, and they fell into a deep sleep while snuggling together.

The clock moved and in the blink of an eye it was 2:30 in the afternoon.

Cheng Kaiyan woke up Jiang Ting as usual and started working.

"Wake up, auntie, it's time for afternoon work."

"coming."

……

In the afternoon, there were thin clouds outside the window and the sun was setting.

The clouds in the sky seemed to be covered with a halo, making the TV tower in the distance look particularly beautiful.

The golden sunlight shone through the window, leaving a few light bars that fell on the pile of heavy manuscripts on the long table, bringing a little heat.

A man and a woman were sitting in front of the desk. The young man was fresh and handsome, and his pair of brown peach eyes looked as gorgeous as if they were coated with a layer of gold in the sunlight.

The woman was wearing a slim-fitting shirt and had a high ponytail. She had a cold temperament, like an Arctic iceberg. Her facial features had the grandeur and grace of the East, while also having the clear bone structure and deep eyes of the West.

The two of them lowered their heads and quietly wrote the papers at hand.

His eyes were focused and his writing was quick.

Sometimes when we encounter difficulties, we can't help but look up the book or communicate with each other in a low voice.

On the bed not far away, there was a delicate girl who looked like a porcelain doll leaning against the head of the bed, holding a pillow in her arms, with a novel on the pillow, reading it boredly.

"How long are you two going to finish writing? There's not even a single move in half a day? It's so boring!"

The girl frowned and said with a hint of concern in her tone.

For two hours, Jiang Ting and Cheng Kaiyan wrote furiously at the desk, concentrating on their work. They even went to the toilet and drank water only a few times.

"Why don't you go and tinker with your new beans? I'm a little tired right now, so I'd like to drink some coffee to perk up."

Jiang Ting suggested in a gentle voice without even looking up.

"That's true! But I won't give it to someone, or you'll be so greedy."

Ning Wanjia's eyes lit up, she got up and walked towards the coffee machine opposite, not forgetting to threaten Cheng Kaiyan while speaking.

Soon, the sound of a hand-cranked grinder grinding beans rang out in the room. The sound was neither light nor heavy, but felt like white noise.

She came over with two cups of coffee and asked curiously, "Aunt San, what are you writing?"

"paper."

"A new paper? You are worthy of being my third aunt!
I just published one paper, and now I have another one. I am not like someone who only has a high school education and can only help with the work. "

Ning Wanjia first praised Jiang Ting, and then compared the two.

“This paper is very encouraging.”

Jiang Ting took the coffee in her hand, took a sip, and said with a smile.

"Is it his? Impossible!"

Ning Wanjia didn't believe it at all, and soon she thought of something, "Most of the things must have been written by you, Third Aunt, and then you put someone's name on them, how shameless!
Cheng Kaiyan! You are committing academic fraud and academic cheating! "

After saying that, she stared at Cheng Kaiyan with a sneer, her eyes full of contempt.

"Of course not! The core results of this paper are all from Cheng Kaiyan."

Cheng Kaiyan didn't react yet, but Jiang Ting spoke very seriously.

Is it true?

Ning Wanjia raised her eyebrows. She knew that Jiang Ting would not lie about such things, and she soon believed it a little.

"Whether it's true or not, you'll know when the time comes."

Cheng Kaiyan said lightly.

"We'll see."

Ning Wanjia snorted coldly.

……

In a blink of an eye, some time passed and the first draft of the paper "Three Major Themes of Children's Literature" was finally completed on Wednesday. The two spent another two days revising and correcting it.

Jiang Ting and Cheng Kaiyan completed all their thesis work on Friday.

That afternoon, the two of them bound the paper manuscript with brown paper in the office, but they were a little confused about the arrangement of the authors of the paper.

"Let's do this together. Your contribution, aunt, is not much less than mine."

Cheng Kaiyan said sincerely that in fact, without Jiang Ting's reminder and help, this paper might not be completed by the end of August.

It can be said that Jiang Ting alone doubled Cheng Kaiyan's speed.

"No need, one corresponding author will do. Let's quickly decide on it and ask Director Fang to stamp it."

Jiang Ting shook her head and refused.

Even in the 1970s and 1980s, there was a clear consensus on the contribution and ranking of paper authors.

The first author and the corresponding author are the two people who have made the greatest contribution.

Of course, they can also be written in parallel.

As for asking Director Fang to stamp the document, it is a step-by-step approval process of the school and bears the stamp of Beijing Normal University.

It is not as strict as in later generations and is just a symbolic meaning.

The two went to Director Fang's office to explain their purpose.

Director Fang took a look at the proposal report and found that it was a paper related to children's literature, so he took a quick look at the paper.

The title of this paper is also quite grand, and it talks about a theme in children's literature.

"After all, this kid is writing for the first time, so it's inevitable that there are some mistakes. This kind of big topic is difficult to write, but his courage is commendable."

Director Fang thought to himself.

He then flipped through the pages and was surprised to find that the article did a very thorough job of analyzing specific cases on the main theme.

The first article, "The Scarecrow" by Mr. Ye Shengtao, was analyzed in more than thirty pages in the paper, which shows how serious he was.

Although Director Fang is not an expert in this field, he still has some vision and he thinks this paper should be a good one.

"It's well written. I can approve it. I'll submit it to the Journal of Peking University like Professor Jiang did."

Director Fang looked at the two young men in front of him, and his opinion of them changed again.

It is not clear whether this paper has made any outstanding contribution, but Cheng Kaiyan has already demonstrated his talent for research.

He is a good writer and a good candidate for research.

"Comrade Xiao Cheng, keep up the good work and keep going!"

Director Fang clapped his hands in encouragement and was very satisfied with Cheng Kaiyan's performance.

I thought I would test the waters with a core journal first. If it passes, that would be great. If not, that’s OK too, as I can still get some comments on revisions. Then I can submit to other journals. If it doesn’t work out, I’ll submit to my own Journal of Beijing Normal University.

……

After stamping the letter, the two of them went out and delivered it to the Journal of Peking University at the post office.

"Let's go! Let's have a celebration dinner!"

Finally, Cheng Kaiyan and Jiang Ting came to Dengshikou Primary School to pick up Xu Yuxiu, and the three of them held a celebratory banquet at Dongfeng Restaurant.

The three of them were very happy and even drank some wine.
