Chapter 274 That's Honor

But as I said before, all of this takes time. For now, Lin Xiaotao is still a student at Peking University, and we still need to assign her homework every day, otherwise the child will completely ignore the fact that she has homework.

It's one thing to finish quickly and well, but it's another to say that professors are neglecting their duties by not assigning homework.

Thinking about that prodigious talent, the professors sighed inwardly. They knew they couldn't compete with him. Such a prodigy was better left to be the envy of many.

The people at the research institute are very nice.

Yes, it makes those who are already bald even balder.

Several professors couldn't help but touch their bald heads; it was indeed their fault for being too smart.

Foolish people don't even have the chance to go bald.

However, Professor Song was quite comforted by the fact that Xiao Taohua had no objections at all when she heard that she could graduate early, and was even quite happy about it.

"Are you really not opposed?" Professor Song couldn't help but ask.

"I have no objections." Little Peach Blossom said this with considerable confidence: "I always knew I was smart; I could even graduate earlier than others."

Professor Song's lips twitched, but he had to admit that Lin Xiaotao was truly intelligent.

"Well, since you have no objections, you can come to the research institute when summer vacation comes. Although this matter is still uncertain, with the help of us old guys, the research institute will definitely accept you no matter what. How far you can get in the research institute will depend on yourself. We old guys can't control that."

"Research Institute?"

"Yes, you know, if you can get into the research institute, you can learn more profound knowledge, and there are some things that even the old guys in the research institute are slowly studying. You might even feel that your knowledge is not enough at that time."

"But I don't want to go to a research institute after I graduate."

Professor Song: "What did you say? Say it again?"

"I don't want to go to the research institute." Little Peach Blossom said matter-of-factly, "After I graduate, I'll go back to my hometown and work at the health center of my production team. Oh, right, I'll also go to Pei-chuan's house. We can get married early then, hehe."

Professor Song was shocked, and exasperated: "Lin Xiaotao!"

What do professors do?

"Do you even know what a research institute is?!"

"I know, it's a place that ordinary people would kill to get into." Even if Xiao Taohua didn't know much about it, everyone around her would talk about it. Xiao Taohua isn't deaf, of course she'd heard about it. According to her memory, once she heard about it, she wouldn't forget it.

"You know how people would kill to get into this place. Now that you have the opportunity, can't you be a little more ambitious and stop thinking about going back to your little clinic!"

"But I think it will be very tiring to go in."

"Is it tiring? It's an honor!"

Little Peach Blossom stared at the professor with her big eyes.

The professor, feeling a heart attack from the stare, said, "Don't look at me like that. No matter how innocent you are, you have to listen to me. We old guys have gone to great lengths to get you in there early. You have to make it big in there, otherwise it'll be a waste of all the effort we've put into you. Do you think we old guys are heartbroken?"

"I can't bear it."

Professor Song was so angry he almost vomited blood.

"Professor, I think you're not doing well right now."

"I'm not feeling well."

"Should I give you an acupuncture?"

"It's not that bad yet. Give me the truth, what will it take for you to go to the research institute!" Everyone else is begging and pleading for the research institute to accept them, but here they are, begging and pleading for Lin Xiaotao to join the research institute. This is putting the cart before the horse.

But there's nothing we can do; as the saying goes, it's Lin Xiaotao after all.

They had broken countless precedents with Lin Xiaotao.

Little Peach Blossom didn't say a word, but Professor Song just glared at her, glaring and glaring!

"Then, then I'll ask my parents." Lin Xiaotao was a little guilty.

It seems that I have indeed received a lot of care from the professors these past few months.

Why don't we go and take a look?

That's what she thought, but Xiao Taohua felt that she could discuss it with her parents.

"Ha, don't bother asking. I know your parents, and I know what you're thinking." Why ask about her parents? They still listen to her anyway. He'd never seen such willful parents, who don't consider their child's feelings at all. Oh, they do consider their child's feelings? Their considerations only make the child sad.

What kind of parents are these?

Professor Song felt distressed. He didn't want Lin Xiaotao to contact her parents because the outcome would be the same whether she did or not; it all depended on Lin Xiaotao.

If contacting her were useful, he wouldn't need to discuss it with Lin Xiaotao.

These are all profound experiences gained over several attempts.

Little Peach Blossom secretly glanced at Professor Song a few times.

Professor Song clutched his chest: "Speak, don't beat around the bush."

"How about I give it a try?"

"Just go in, what do you mean by 'try it out'? Do you think this is your home, where you can just 'try it out' whenever you want?"

"What else?"

"Alright, I've made up my mind for you. You'll go into the research institute and crush all those old guys there!"

Little Peach Blossom was dumbfounded.

Does the professor have such high expectations of her?

What should I do if I suddenly feel happy?

"Yes, Professor, don't worry, I'll definitely do my best!"

Professor Song was somewhat puzzled.

Why is Lin Xiaotao suddenly acting like she's been injected with chicken blood?

However, this did not prevent Professor Song from being satisfied. Very good, he had agreed to join the research institute, and all his hard work had not been in vain.

"Okay, since you've agreed, then go directly to the research institute in the capital after the semester starts. But don't tell anyone else about this for now. Only your close family members should know, and don't let them spread the word. We can talk about it when it's time, once you've actually entered the research institute."

"Okay, I'll do whatever the professor says."

Isn't that quite well-behaved?

Professor Song nodded in satisfaction: "As for your partner, it's already difficult enough for the research institute to get you in. We don't have the ability to get your partner in. However, if you perform well among the researchers, your partner can be admitted as a family member. Of course, the premise is that you have to be outstanding, outstanding to the point that everyone can't even dream of being there!"

Actually, they don't need to be that outstanding. Any full-time employee of the research institute can have their family members accompany them. But will Professor Song say anything about this? Of course not. He's still waiting to persuade Lin Xiaotao to be even more ambitious.

Sure enough, Lin Xiaotao was filled with enthusiasm upon hearing this: "I will try my best!"

"Well, it's good that you know how to work hard. That's why I came here. Alright, I have something to do, so I'll be going now. Take it easy on yourself. Remember, don't publicize this before it's done."

"Professor, I understand."

"Good, I understand." Professor Song nodded in satisfaction. "By the way, where's your boyfriend? Doesn't he work at the library? I haven't seen him at all since I got here." Could he have been slacking off?

“Pei-chuan went to buy me snacks, I’ll cover for him.”

Professor Song: ...

Well, these young people nowadays are really something, do they have to be so lovey-dovey when they're dating?

Not wanting to see the two of them being all lovey-dovey, Professor Song turned and left.

He shouldn't have mentioned that person; he should have just left.

Why is he asking about other people's relationship matters? That's just being nosy!
