Chapter 1401 Professor Xiao?

When Chen Zetao saw Xiao Peng, he was in his study, with dark circles under his eyes and his hair a mess. He looked as disheveled as could be. There were all sorts of leftover food on the table. And since there was no window open for fresh air, the room was thick with the smell of cigarettes.

"Why didn't Alfred ask someone to clean the room?" Chen Zetao frowned and asked, "Brother Xiao, how long have you been away from here?"

After hearing this, Xiao Peng sighed and said, "Brother Chen, please kill me!"

Chen Zetao said, "Kill me first! What exactly do you mean by giving the 'Calypso' to the Deep Submersible Base without a word?"

Xiao Peng didn't answer the question. Instead, he pushed the book on the table aside, found a pack of cigarettes, took out one, lit it, and took a puff: "Do you smoke?"

After Chen Zetao declined Xiao Peng's cigarette, he asked in confusion, "Brother Xiao, what's wrong with you?"

Xiao Peng said angrily, "Heintje Hahn, that old fox! I'm going to kill him!"

"Heintje Hahn?" Chen Zetao thought for a moment and then remembered, "Oh, you're talking about the president of Delft University of Technology! What happened to him?"

Xiao Peng slammed the table and said, "TU Delft, HIT, and HEC can collaborate, so why would they involve me?"

Chen Zetao asked in confusion: "What's wrong with him?"

Xiao Peng took out a red hardcover notebook from the table and threw it to Chen Zetao.

"Letter of appointment?" Chen Zetao took it and opened it. "Delft University of Technology invites you to be a visiting professor at the School of Mechanical, Navigation and Materials Engineering? And you're going to be teaching?"

After hearing this, Xiao Peng slammed his hand on the table and said, "Yeah! I refused several times, but that old bastard used this university cooperation agreement to threaten me! He always said, 'The Americans are putting a lot of pressure on us,' and 'The success of this cooperation depends on whether you can change the stereotype of Daxia people in the eyes of our students!' This flattery and putting people on the spot should be my patent, but now it's being used on me! Just kill me! How can I teach when I haven't even been to college? I've been reading their school textbooks every day lately! Oh my God! It's like reading a book of incomprehensible language! All the professional terms and data parameters are driving me crazy!"

Chen Zetao was stunned after hearing this, and then burst into laughter.

"What are you laughing at?" Xiao Peng asked in confusion.

Chen Zetao said, "Do you think they're asking you to teach some cutting-edge technology? No, they just want to know about your experiences at sea. Just tell them how you found the shipwreck, how you faced the storm, and how you fooled around with the girls at sea. You're teaching them shipbuilding technology and core physics techniques? And you're preparing so carefully for the class? Are you crazy?"

Xiao Peng's eyes widened: "Brother Chen, do you look down on me?"

Chen Zetao made a 'please' gesture: "Then you will continue your research? Become a true university professor?"

Xiao Peng threw the book aside and said, "You're right to look down on me! I'll never read this again, even if you kill me! It's a complete waste of my time! Wait, what do you mean by 'I was fooling around with the girls on the boat'?"

Chen Zetao opened the window and drew back the curtains. "Come on, who doesn't know the name 'Xiao Sanduo'? Hey, giving a lecture to your former lovers? Damn, that's exciting! What's that smell in your room? You stink, don't you? You can learn anything from foreigners, but don't learn their stinky smell! You can't live without perfume!"

Xiao Peng said angrily, "Damn it, you still dare to laugh at me? Who am I doing this for? It's just for that damn university cooperation plan! What do you want from me? Aren't you in China? Why did you suddenly come here?"

Chen Zetao was about to speak when Xiao Peng said, "Stop! I stink! Let's go take a shower!"

"We?" Chen Zetao was shocked when he heard it.

Xiao Peng directly pressed the intercom button on the table: "Alfred, prepare some clothes for me, and ask Bruch to prepare the car!"

Chen Zetao didn't understand, but after seeing Xiao Peng gave up the idea of studying to become a professor, he felt relieved: Xiao Peng really wanted to be a professor who teaches and educates people?

Oh my god, I get goosebumps just thinking about it!

When Xiao Peng arrived at the door, Alfred had prepared a handbag for him. Xiao Peng took the bag and just walked out the door when he heard the roar of the engine.

"What is this?" Chen Zetao was stunned after seeing it.

Xiao Peng said, "It's a small gift from someone else."

Chen Zetao whistled. "This gift is quite large. Why does it look like a military-grade one?"

He said this because Bruch and Kassin each drove a huge Hummer, which was very similar in appearance to the Hummer H1 seen on the street, but was more massive. Although the paint was re-sprayed and looked very fashionable, anyone with a discerning eye could tell that it was a military vehicle.

Xiao Peng said, "Be braver and more confident. Remove the word 'seemingly'. This is the military version."

"Where did you get it?" Chen Zetao asked.

Xiao Peng replied, "I have a hangar in my yard with two 'Sky Tractors' parked inside. They can even take off from the lawn. Fun, right? Take one back with you when you leave! But don't tell me I didn't warn you, these things don't even have air conditioning, the engine isn't equipped with electronics, the transmission isn't electronic, the top speed is less than 90 kilometers per hour, and the 6.5L diesel V8 engine is a gas guzzler! I have a friend who collects scrap in Afghanistan and gave me a bunch of these little gifts."

Chen Zetao understood where all the military equipment came from when he heard this! The Americans had gone to Afghanistan with such force, and when they withdrew, they left in the middle of the night like thieves without notifying anyone, leaving behind a pile of weapons that were now being sold for money.

But Xiao Peng yelled, "Bruch, I'm going to the old town. What are you doing driving this thing?"

After hearing this, Bruch and Kasin drove back to the garage and drove out two small MINIs. Xiao Peng got in and threw his handbag behind him. "Brother Chen, get in. They're following behind."

Chen Zetao sat in the passenger seat and asked in confusion, "Brother Xiao, why don't you drive the Hummer we just drove? You should pay attention to your safety. Didn't the anthrax attack you encountered in the Arctic Ocean this time sound the alarm for you?"

Xiao Peng said, "Brother Chen, I understand what you mean. I'm more concerned about safety than anyone else right now. Otherwise, why would I let Bruch and Kasin follow us? In fact, I know why you came to see me. In fact, even if you didn't come to see me, I would still come to see you. I didn't let you drive the car because... forget it, I can't explain it to you clearly. You'll understand why in a moment!"
