Chapter 13: It Had Been Very Worthwhile!
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The fact that Lu Jia’er had been highly recommended by Jin Xiangdong made Jin Shengping once again reevaluate the girl in front of him. She was delicate and in good shape but looked cold and stern.
Lu Jia’er, who used to be calm, became dumbstruck at the change in development which put her at a loss as to what to do next.
Lu Jia’er felt that it had been worth the ha.s.sle to be sized up and remembered by Jin Shengping!
“Professor Lu, this is my father, Jin Shengping!” Jin Xiangdong continued the introductions.
It left her humbled being given the t.i.tle of “professor” in front of Jin Shengping. She felt thoroughly b.u.t.tered up by Jin Xiangdong!
“h.e.l.lo, Professor Jin! Nice to meet you! May I have your autograph?” Lu Jia’er tried to contain herself, but failed, and she had said what had never been said before, which was to get an autograph from Jin Shengping.
Lu Jia’er was embarra.s.sed that she couldn’t control her mouth and knew what she just said gave the impression of being rash since she had requested an autograph after hitting Jin Shengping’s car.
“Okay!” But Jin Shengping magnanimously agreed with a peaceful smile on his face.
Jin Shengping’s open-heartedness made Lu Jia’er even more embarra.s.sed. But she justified it in her heart, being a fanatic is normal in front of a personage of this calibur!
Lu Jia’er, whose autograph was often asked for, hurriedly pulled out a yellow notebook from the bag. The nervous and excited look on her face was exactly the same as that of the policeman last night.
Jin Xiangdong had seen a totally different side of her in comparison to yesterday’s calm Lu Jia’er. He found her very lovely at the moment.
After signing his name for Lu Jia’er, Jin Shengping handed the notebook back to her.
“Thank you, Professor Jin!” Lu Jia’er thanked him gratefully as a little fan.
“Every time I return to my country, I end up being addressed very formally. China has a tradition of respecting the old and loving the young!” Jin Shengping laughed.
Jin Shengping’s humor had instantly cleared part of Lu Jia’er’s nervousness. “You do love the young very much! I have b.u.mped into your car but you haven’t blamed me at all!” she replied.
“As you have said, I do respect the old and love the young!” Jin Shengping smiled.
“You are quite humorous, Professor Jin!” Lu Jia’er was amused.
…
Afterward, Lu Jia’er accompanied Jin Shengping and Jin Xiangdong to the parking lot of the hospital.
Jin Shengping got in the car first while Jin Xiangdong stood by the car and faced Lu Jia’er.
“Ace, I’m really sorry!” Lu Jia’er apologized again.
“My father only had a minor injury. Please don’t worry!” Jin Yan Xiangdong comforted her.
“In case something happens, be sure to keep me informed!” Lu Jia’er took full responsibility.
“Sure!” Jin Xiangdong’s lips lifted.
“And…” Lu Jia’er hesitated. “I accept the invitation of your company to join the R&D team!”
“Professor Lu.” Jin Xiangdong’s eyes lit up. “I’m very delighted that you have accepted the invitation from our company. But you don’t have to if it is out of guilt and responsibility for today’s accident!”
“It’s not a compensation!” Lu Jia’er shook her head.
“Then you are impressed by the sincerity of our company?” asked Jin Xiangdong.
“Sincerity is part of the reason!” Lu Jia’er said.
“Part of the reason? This answer makes me wonder what the other part of the reason could possibly be to make you finally accept.” he asked with a smile.
Lu Jia’er looked at the car behind Jin Xingdong and then fixed her gaze upon his face. “It’s you!” She answered in all seriousness.
