"By the way, this is..."

  "Ah! Professor Qian, I'll introduce myself. Hello, junior sister. My name is Tang Nan Sheng, a third-year graduate student in the Law Department. You can call me Senior Tang."

  It's better not to speak, but once spoken, it's suddenly discovered that one has misjudged, this is not a neighborly big brother at all, but clearly a playboy wandering among the flowers, and it's all because of this face being too deceptive.

  Of course, whether he spends money or not has nothing to do with her, and he's still here to help, so she maintains a faint smile and politely replies: "Hello, Tang Xuechang, I'm Xian Yu, I'll be troubling you today."

  What can make a beauty thank him? This does not conform to Tang Nan's code of conduct, "No trouble, no trouble, it is my honor to serve a national pillar like you."

  He actually wanted to say that serving a beauty like you is his honor, but he was afraid this high and cold school sister would think him too frivolous, so he changed his words at the last minute, suddenly becoming awkward in front of her.

  I didn't know how to respond to this, so I just said: "You're too kind, senior."

  It's not the time for chatting now, so Tang Nan didn't say much either. He took over the spare contract and started reading it.

  When she found herself involved in what she had learned, this senior seemed to be somewhat different, with a serious expression and a dignified attitude, exuding an air of professionalism and seriousness all over her body, not at all like the dandy she had seen before. As a result, she couldn't help but admire this senior.

  About ten minutes later, Tang Nan handed the contract back to Xian Yu, "This contract is fine, little sister can sign it with peace of mind."

  It was exactly what he said, Cui Guangcheng quietly loosened his clenched fist. Although the idle had already clearly stated that the patent usage rights were intended to be sold to their company, a cooked duck can still fly away, let alone this duck that hadn't even molted its feathers. To avoid having too many dreams at night, it was of course better to sign the contract as soon as possible.

  The deposit needs to be paid in advance, so she has to provide her own bank card account. She brought many materials that might be used, but forgot the bank card.

  Are you in your dorm?

  It's too late to run back now, so I sent a message in the dormitory group chat, hoping someone is in the dorm.

  What's wrong?

  She had just sent it out and received Zhou Mei's reply.

  Help me send the wallet next to my pillow to Professor Qian's office.

  "Please wait a few more minutes, I didn't bring my bank card, my roommate is sending it over to me."

  "It's okay, it's okay, this little time won't delay anything." Cui Guangcheng waved his hand repeatedly, but in his heart, he was muttering that signing this contract had been too much of a rollercoaster ride.

  Zhou Mei was worried that she would be late, so she rushed all the way to Professor Qian's office and arrived panting. Xian Yu quickly helped her sit down and rest, poured a cup of tea for her, and only after settling her in did he slowly fill out his bank account number and ID information on the contract.

  Cui Guangcheng hurried back to report, after signing the contract with Xian Yu, he exchanged a few pleasantries and then hastily left, leaving behind his contact information and repeatedly emphasizing that if there were future cooperation opportunities, they should be given priority.

  It's not about who you cooperate with, this time the price given by World Airline is so sincere, leaving a good impression on her, so she didn't refuse him in her spare time.

  "Professor Qian, due to my reasons, this project has been busy for so long and nothing has been achieved. So I think after the deposit of Shihang Airlines is received, I will take out 200,000 as compensation for everyone, and another 300,000 to make up for your loss."

  The project originally had a budget, but since it just started not long ago, the expenses were not large. After she developed the innovative engine, the project was directly terminated, and Shilian Airlines would naturally not continue to invest in this project. As a result, everyone was equivalent to busy for 20 days, and Professor Qian even lost a project directly. Emotionally and rationally, she should take out some money to compensate everyone.

  As soon as these words came out, Tang Nan couldn't help but take a closer look at Xian Yu.

  She put out 5 million as a deposit, and then she took out another 500,000 to compensate everyone. In theory, she was also one of the project participants, and she relied on her own strength to develop this engine, which led to the project ending ahead of schedule. Even if she didn't compensate everyone, it would be understandable, but she didn't do that, instead taking out one-tenth as compensation, showing that her character and charisma are extraordinary.

  "You're a good kid, but don't worry about it, someone will help you pay this compensation."

  Professor Qian felt very pleased, she had always known that Xianyu's personality was good, but Xianyu's actions still surprised her.

  "Is it... World Airline?"

  After thinking for a long time, it seemed that only World Airline could help her pay this bill.

  "That's right, they contacted me yesterday and were willing to pay 5 million as compensation for the termination of the project. They hoped I would put in a good word for them, but I refused at the time. Now it seems that I can't shirk it."

  If Xianyu hadn't signed a contract with them, this compensation would have been pushed away. The problem is that the contract has already been signed, and in order to maintain a good cooperative relationship with Xianyu, they will definitely find a way to let him accept this 500,000.

  As a result, Xianyu's impression of Shilong Airlines has indeed improved. The 500,000 yuan is not a big problem for either her or Shilong, but the sincerity expressed by Shilong's willingness to pay this amount is enough to make her more determined to prioritize considering Shilong Airlines in the future.

  "Since it's like this, then let's have dinner together on the weekend, and Tang Xue will come too!"

  "My junior didn't even give me a way to contact her, I'm afraid when the time comes, I won't be able to find her." Tang Nansheng said with a smile.

  Xianyu patted his forehead and said: "It was my oversight." He then quickly took out his phone and exchanged WeChat and phone numbers with Tang Nan.

  After settling the matter, Tang Nan followed Professor Qian and Xianyu Zhou to bid farewell and leave. As an outsider, it was not suitable for him to stay there when there were still things to discuss between teachers and students.

  After Tang Nan walked away, Xian Yu also planned to return to the dormitory. Suddenly, he remembered that his thesis was finished and hadn't been shown to Professor Qian yet, so he stopped in his tracks again.

  "By the way, Professor Qian, I've finished writing the paper and will send it to you for review now."

  She also brought her computer with her, which would be convenient for sending it directly to Professor Qian.

  A thesis is dozens of pages long and can't be read in a short time, so Professor Qian didn't rush to read it immediately after receiving it, but instead asked about the patent application.

  "When are you planning to apply for a patent? Are you going to handle it yourself or have other plans?"

  She used to have a personal assistant to handle such things when she was in the Galactic, so she's a bit bewildered now and isn't quite clear about the patent application process on Earth.

  "Do you have any suggestions?"

  If you don't understand, ask. Professor Qian, a big shot in this industry, must know what to do.

  "I suggest you hand it over to World Airline to handle, they are more eager than you to get the patent approved as soon as possible, and they have channels to speed up the approval process."

  "Alright, Professor Qian, I'll get in touch with Manager Cui later."

  This is indeed a good idea, Shilian is eager to use this engine, hand it over to them to do, and she doesn't have to worry about it anymore.
