After leaving the lab and returning to the classroom, Zheng Wenhua had a gossipy look on his face.
"Zhengguo, why have you been gone for so long? Did Professor Wu conscript you again?"
"Get lost! How can you talk about Professor Wu like that? You'd like to be conscripted, but unfortunately, Professor Wu wouldn't want you."
Although Sun Zhengguo's words were harsh, they were the truth. Zheng Wenhua didn't mind at all. Professor Wu had high standards! He might not even be interested in him.
"You're so great, aren't you! I used to be able to compete with you, but now... sigh!"
Since they went to university, Zheng Wenhua has gone from being the perennial runner-up to fifth or sixth place, having long lost the will to compete with Sun Zhengguo.
"Don't be discouraged. You've always been pretty good. It's just that there are too many geniuses in college. Unlike me, I've always been lonely and isolated at the top."
Seeing Sun Zhengguo start to show off, Zheng Wenhua pretended not to hear and picked up a book to pretend to read it.
"Hahaha! You're holding the book upside down."
Upon hearing this, Zheng Wenhua quickly turned the book over and realized that he hadn't held it upside down and had fallen for Sun Zhengguo's trick.
After a few jokes, Sun Zhengguo slowly opened the book and began to read it seriously.
Although I don't want to become some great person, since I've already come into this world, I should at least do something, right?
What's the point of living if you spend your days in a daze, doing nothing?
...
Time flies, and years pass by in the blink of an eye. Time always slips away quickly without us even realizing it.
In the blink of an eye, more than three months have passed since Sun Zhengguo started school.
During this period, Sun Zhengguo's life was very fulfilling.
He not only worked hard to learn new knowledge, but also often assisted Professor Wu with some miscellaneous tasks, constantly improving his abilities in practice.
Professor Wu saw that Sun Zhengguo was very talented, so he entrusted him with some of the drawing work required by the unit.
In this way, Sun Zhengguo not only earned a reward but also gained valuable practical experience.
Faced with Professor Wu's high recognition and attention, Sun Zhengguo knew the value of this trust and dared not slack off in the slightest.
He not only completed the drawing task excellently, but also took the initiative to go with Professor Wu to various units to assist in the installation, debugging and modification of mechanical equipment.
To Professor Wu's surprise, Sun Zhengguo not only possessed solid theoretical knowledge and superb drafting skills, but also had extraordinary expertise in mechanical improvement.
In several mechanical modification projects, Sun Zhengguo was always the first to offer valuable suggestions and ideas.
Surprisingly, after everyone put his ideas into practice, they all achieved great success!
Moreover, the benefits brought about by these improvements are quite significant.
In fact, Sun Zhengguo's exceptional abilities are not solely due to his efforts in this life.
More importantly, he had accumulated a wealth of experience in his previous life and dedicated his life to mechanical repair.
His long-term exposure to various types of mechanical equipment has given him a profound understanding of this technology.
In addition, through systematic learning and continuous self-improvement in recent years, he is now able to handle all kinds of problems with ease and confidence.
While it might be a bit challenging for him to be directly in charge of manufacturing entirely new machinery, tasks involving mechanical modification are not particularly difficult for him.
Recently, Professor Wu, along with Chen Lianshan and Sun Zhengguo, has been helping a food factory to modify its conveyor system.
After all the renovation work was completed, everyone had lunch at the food factory.
As they were about to leave, following their usual practice, Director Ding of the food factory escorted them all the way to the gate.
"Professor Wu, Assistant Chen, Technician Sun, thank you so much! This is just a small token of our appreciation, and we hope you will accept it."
As he spoke, Director Ding handed the envelope in his hand to Professor Wu and the others.
Professor Wu didn't even glance at the envelope that was handed to him before putting it directly into his pocket.
Chen Lianshan and Sun Zhengguo were unmoved by Professor Wu's actions, as they were already used to such situations.
So they followed Professor Wu's example and accepted the envelope that Director Ding handed over.
Seeing that all three of them had accepted his gifts, Director Ding finally smiled with satisfaction.
After leaving the food factory, the group returned to Tsinghua University. Sun Zhengguo was about to return to the classroom when Professor Wu called him back.
“Zhengguo, why don’t you skip the classroom and come back to the lab with me? You’ve already learned all the material taught at school, so what’s the point of sitting there listening? You’d be better off going to the lab and helping me out.”
Chen Lianshan, standing to the side, was also very envious. Sun Zhengguo was simply Professor Wu's darling, and he was willing to help him wherever he went.
"No, Professor Wu, I've missed quite a few classes these past few days because of the mechanical modifications. Professor Zhang has already taken attendance several times. If it weren't for your great influence, I don't know how many times I would have been made to stand outside as punishment."
"Hahaha!"
"That old Zhang is really something. After all these years, he still hasn't changed his bad temper. Never mind, I won't make things difficult for you. I'll call you next time I need something."
After saying goodbye to Professor Wu and returning to the classroom, Zheng Wenhua, who hadn't seen Sun Zhengguo for several days, stared at him like a curious child.
"Brother, congratulations on your fortune! You must have made a lot of money following Professor Wu these past few days!"
"That's vulgar. We're contributing to socialism. Talking about money is too hurtful. Comrade, it seems you have a problem with your thinking and need to correct it in time."
Sun Zhengguo said righteously.
"Hahaha! That's hilarious! You're just pretending! I've noticed that since you got married, you haven't improved in any other skills, but your ability to act pretentious has certainly improved a lot."
"So you should get married soon. Being single for too long makes you more and more dull, which is not good for your health."
As Sun Zhengguo spoke, he patted Zheng Wenhua on the shoulder.
His experienced tone drove Zheng Wenhua a little crazy.
Once upon a time, I used to tease Sun Zhengguo like this every day when I was with my junior sister!
Now, Sun Zhengguo has gotten married first and is now laughing at him.
"Don't be so smug. I played a part in your marriage; otherwise, you'd still be single!"
"Okay, okay! Thank you for burning yourself to light up others. This fearless spirit is something we should all learn from."
Zheng Wenhua was initially quite happy to hear Sun Zhengguo praise him, but the more he thought about it, the more awkward he felt. Just as he was about to retort, the math teacher walked into the room.
When the teacher arrived, the two stopped arguing and began to pay attention in class.
The second period in the afternoon was another physics class. When Professor Zhang walked into the classroom, Sun Zhengguo, in order not to attract attention, pretended to be an ostrich and looked down at his book.
As usual, Professor Zhang first inspected the classroom and unexpectedly spotted Sun Zhengguo.
However, he didn't say anything. It wasn't that Professor Zhang had become more agreeable, but rather that Sun Zhengguo always reported his whereabouts with a note whenever he left the school.
In addition, Sun Zhengguo's grades were indeed good, and everything complied with the procedures, so what else could he say?
And so, Sun Zhengguo waited until the end of get out of class and Professor Zhang left, without seeing him cause any trouble, before he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
After Professor Zhang's physics class, the following classes were relatively easy, and I no longer had to worry about being punished by standing.
Soon, it was time to leave school. Sun Zhengguo hurriedly packed up a few drawings and headed out of the classroom.
These past few days I've been busy modifying machines and drawing blueprints at night, so my wife has been neglected for the past few days.
I just finished my task today, and it'll be perfect to go home tonight...
Hehehe!
Just thinking about it makes me happy.
