The He Ziqing that remains in Wen Xiuyuan's memory probably looks like he is in his forties or fifties.
In my impression, He Ziqing always had a cold face and spoke to everyone in a harsh tone without any warmth or courtesy.
At that time, Wen Xiuyuan, who was in his twenties, was very afraid of He Ziqing.
Fear and admiration.
I was afraid because of He Ziqing’s strictness.
He Ziqing doesn't care about other aspects.
But in research, even if Wen Xiuyuan made a trivial mistake, He Ziqing would scold him severely.
That's really a rude curse.
Over time, He Ziqing began to regard the insults he used against Wen Xiuyuan as a way of addressing him.
Pig brain.
That's right.
For a long time, He Ziqing called Wen Xiuyuan a pig-brained person.
It is hard to imagine that Wen Xiuyuan, who will be called Fox in the future, once had such a unique "nickname".
At the beginning, Wen Xiuyuan was naturally unhappy.
No one likes to be scolded.
In particular, I get scolded almost every day.
Even though Wen Xiuyuan was more mature than other children of the same age since childhood and had a tougher character, he was still young at that time.
Who hasn’t been full of energy when they were young?
Finally, Wen Xiuyuan exploded amidst the constant shouts of "pig brain".
Wen Xiuyuan expressed his dissatisfaction by contradicting He Ziqing in public.
He just wanted to vent his anger in front of everyone.
What he didn't expect was that after being contradicted, He Ziqing did not scold him in anger.
He Ziqing just said, you can leave.
From now on, you don’t have to come to my lab anymore.
Wen Xiuyuan naturally turned away.
At that time, he felt that he had learned almost everything.
There is no need to continue to suffer.
After that, He Ziqing did not use his connections and status to make things difficult for Wen Xiuyuan.
The two had almost no intersection.
But gradually, Wen Xiuyuan encountered a bottleneck in his research.
A problem arose during his research, and he couldn't figure it out even if he racked his brains.
He found many people to help him solve the problem, but the final result was not satisfactory.
This bottleneck lasted for nearly two years.
In the past two years, Wen Xiuyuan has not made any progress in research. Instead, he has been troubled by unsolvable problems to the point of almost collapsing.
Finally, he couldn't stand it anymore.
He knew that if he continued like this, he would go crazy.
He finally plucked up the courage and went back to the laboratory he thought he would never go to again and found He Ziqing.
He Ziqing saw him but didn't say anything.
Still the same as before, with an indifferent attitude and cold words.
Wen Xiuyuan gritted his teeth and apologized to He Ziqing without much sincerity, then directly raised his own problem.
He didn't actually hold out much hope.
He knew that he had embarrassed He Ziqing in front of so many people. Now that he had finally got the chance, it was considered a good thing for him to kneel down and kowtow in public to admit his mistake.
After all, problems can be solved by simply admitting mistakes.
What he was most worried about was that He Ziqing would ignore him altogether.
However, the result this time gave Wen Xiuyuan a deep shock.
He Ziqing didn't say anything, but sorted out Wen Xiuyuan's question and gave him an answer.
It's that simple.
It was as if the previous unpleasantness had never happened.
"Pig brain."
After answering Wen Xiuyuan's questions, He Ziqing spoke to him again in the same tone as before, "Do you know what two years means to a researcher?"
Wen Xiuyuan said nothing.
He Ziqing sighed softly, "Especially, those two years when I was in my twenties."
Wen Xiuyuan seemed to understand what He Ziqing meant.
But He Ziqing did not give Wen Xiuyuan a chance to explain.
He seemed to have been holding these words in for two years.
"That time, you contradicted me in public. To be honest, I wasn't angry."
"I thought you felt you were capable enough and didn't need me to teach you anymore."
"If that's the case, that's fine! It's a good thing that you can learn my skills."
"You are still young, and you will achieve higher results through the knowledge you have learned."
"So I was really looking forward to whether you would come up with results that would surprise me in a few years."
"But now, you disappoint me."
He Ziqing's eyes were filled with undisguised contempt: "Just to save your breath, you wasted two years of your life."
Wen Xiuyuan's body froze.
He knew what He Ziqing really cared about at this moment.
"If you come to me first when you encounter a problem, I will help you solve it."
"That's because, for a researcher, nothing is more important than research results."
"You haven't figured out such a simple truth yet."
"I didn't call you wrong, you really are a pig-brained person."
Wen Xiuyuan was stunned.
At this moment, he completely understood how stupid he was.
yes!
That’s two years!
What on earth am I being so stubborn about?
"S-Sorry... Sensei."
"I'm not your teacher."
He Ziqing interrupted Wen Xiuyuan's apology: "I teach you knowledge only to continue my research path, that's all."
"If you have any questions about research in the future, you can come to me and I will answer them for you."
