Chapter 38 The Nanny's Niece's Counterattack
Who doesn't like a student who studies hard and strives for excellence? The only pity is that this good student isn't one of your own.
Considering that they had already made it into the training camp and were eligible to apply for university admission without examination, Liang Yanghua thought for a moment and decided to ask Ji Liu to help inquire whether she was interested in applying to the mathematics department of University A.
It's obvious that if she can pursue a master's degree, he will definitely accept her.
When Ji Liu learned of this, he couldn't help but feel a little envious. He also wanted to be his student. If he could be his student, he wouldn't have to take so many detours on his mathematical path in the future.
Unfortunately, Ji Liu knew that his performance last time was unsatisfactory, so he was too ashamed to ask his father to ask him to take him as a student.
However, what angered him the most was Lin Wei's attitude; she actually rejected Professor Liang's offer.
"Although I'm very happy that Professor Liang values me so much, I'm not interested in mathematics. Please thank Professor Liang for me." Upon hearing this, Lin Wei refused almost without thinking.
She still wanted to pursue biology, even though she didn't really like the subject. But since she had made the choice, she was determined to stick with it.
Upon hearing this, Ji Liu looked at her in disbelief. "Do you know what you're saying? So many people want to be Professor Liang's student, and you just gave it up so easily?" The fact that others could get what he wanted so easily and look down on him made Ji Liu feel jealous and angry.
Lin Wei looked at him, puzzled, and said, "Why are you so angry? Even if I didn't refuse, you weren't the one who received Professor Liang's invitation. I'm good at math, but does that mean I have to choose math? I'm doing quite well in my other subjects too."
"Ji Liu, you can't expect everyone to love math just because you like it." Doesn't he understand the principle of "do not do to others what you would not have them do to you"? How would she feel if she asked him to give up math and study another subject?
Ji Liu felt somewhat guilty, so he composed himself and apologized, "I'm sorry, my tone might have been a bit too aggressive, but I still hope you can seriously consider it." He wouldn't have cared this much about anyone else.
You could call it jealousy, or you could call it impotent rage, but in mathematics, he admitted that her talent surpassed his. If she didn't study mathematics, if she gave up this path to success, it would be a pity, to be honest.
Lin Wei said firmly, "My mind is made up and I won't change it, but thank you for your concern anyway." After saying that, she ignored him.
In her view, friendship should be based on respect, not on using the excuse of being nice to you to attack you. Therefore, they could not be considered friends, but at most classmates in the same training team.
However, there was one thing Lin Wei felt she needed to think about carefully: which university should she apply to? She wanted to study biology, so which university had the best biology program and was the most suitable for her?
Because of this, she went back and specifically searched online, but some people said University A, some said Ocean University of China, and there was no consensus. Because of this, she approached Chi Boyan for the first time and asked, "Which university do you want to apply to?"
She figured that since he was so good at biology, he should also study biology in college, but she didn't know whether it would be at A University or Ocean University of China.
Although both universities are among the top in the country, they are located in completely different parts of the country.
However, she heard him say, "Sichuan Province, I guess." Although the two of them hadn't communicated much lately, he would still reply when she spoke.
Lin Wei: "??" This was a school she had never imagined. "Why?" Why would he apply to Sichuan Province? Could he be trying to fool her?
Chi Boyan: "Sichuan Province's clinical medicine department is the strongest in the country. Is there a problem with me applying to Sichuan Province? And who told you that just because I'm good at biology, I have to apply for biology?" He insists on applying for clinical medicine, and it would be even better if he minored in biology or pursued a master's degree in biology.
In that instant, the boomerang struck Lin Wei. She admitted that for a moment, she had been fooled. She had always been the one faking it, but finally, she saw from her own perspective that someone else was faking it.
However, after receiving the answer, she felt that it made a lot of sense. If clinical medicine were combined with a biology degree, it would feel like a game-changer.
Moreover, the profession of doctor sounds better. Putting everything else aside, it's already considered a rather glamorous job.
However, because this matter concerns her future life, Lin Wei did not make a decision immediately, but wanted to ask a few more people before making a decision.
After much deliberation, she felt that among all the people she knew, only the one she had "determined" seemed relatively reliable. Mainly, based on their conversations over the past few days, he appeared much more mature than many others and should be able to offer her some advice.
So when Qin Boyuan logged onto the learning and communication website again, he glanced at her profile picture as usual. He thought it would be grayed out as usual, but once he saw it, he couldn't take his eyes off it.
"Are you done with your work?" He was referring to the training camp, which shouldn't be the case, since the training camp shouldn't be over yet. Could he have guessed wrong?
Lin Wei denied it after seeing it, "Not yet, but I do have a question to ask you."
"Well, I have a friend who wants to study biology, but she doesn't know whether to go to University A or Ocean University of China, because both universities have really strong biology programs. Then she heard about someone who's incredibly good at biology who wants to apply to clinical medicine in college and minor in biology. I wanted to ask you, if she's going to study biology, do you think University A or Ocean University of China is better?"
"Compared to studying biology, do you think you should treat it as a minor or something? After all, it seems like biology isn't a good major for finding a job." Lin Wei was quite concerned about whether she could find a job, since that was her perspective.
To expect her to invent something in the future is, frankly, ridiculous. What if she doesn't?
After seeing this, Qin Boyuan roughly understood what she meant. The friend she was referring to was probably herself; his previous guesses were mostly correct.
But wasn't she studying math before? How did she switch to biology? Is she that good at studying? She used to call him "boss" so much.
However, despite her thoughts, the answer still came: "It depends on your friend's abilities and future career path. Biology is, well, a bit of a sunset industry. If you don't have the skills and value, I wouldn't recommend studying it. If you insist on studying it, I would recommend University A. Its biological research lab is already under construction and should be fully completed within the next year. In this respect, Shanghai University is slightly inferior to it."
After all, the biological research laboratory was invested and implemented by the Qin family, and no one knew this better than Qin Boyuan.
"Clinical medicine requires even more effort. Many people say that advising someone to study medicine is like being struck by lightning, and this isn't entirely unfounded. If you can endure the tedium of studying, and you still have eight years, it's definitely worth studying. However, the doctor-patient disputes and some potential hospital rules are also points that can discourage people from pursuing medicine." These days, having connections is often necessary, regardless of the industry. But if you have absolute ability, it's not impossible to fight for a chance to succeed.
Qin Boyuan's words were rather vague. Lin Wei didn't really understand. Rules? What rules? Wasn't it just a matter of getting into a hospital? Forgive her, she really didn't know anything about these things.
But it was precisely because I didn't know much about it that I had so much courage.
Okay, she's decided to apply for clinical medicine as a backup, with biology as a secondary option.
She was starving, so she became a doctor; she didn't starve, so she worked in biology.
Perfect.
Qin Boyuan was surprised when he heard her decision. "So you want to apply to Sichuan University?" Even though he knew that Sichuan University's medical department was the most famous.
However, Lin Wei shook her head. "No, I want to apply to University A. Didn't you say that University A has the best biological research lab?" Since she wanted to study biology, of course she would choose the one with the best lab.
It's clear that she really wants to study biology.
Neither of them realized that they were now using the words "you" and "me" instead of "your friend" and "my friend" as they had done before.
When Qin Boyuan saw that the person on the other end had logged off, and then looked at the conversation in the chat box, he paused for a moment, then chuckled. "Why does he seem a little clever, yet not so clever?"
Actually, there was something else he didn't say: if she really couldn't find a job, he could offer her one, but he still wanted to see how far she could grow.
He felt it was unlikely she would need his job.
After resolving this concern, Lin Wei finally had time to return to reality. The ten-day training period was neither long nor short; it passed in the blink of an eye, faster than anyone could imagine.
She had previously planned to thoroughly study the biology chapter, but ultimately failed.
"Ugh, ugh, my head hurts." When no one was around, Lin Wei thought dejectedly. She would rather spend time learning math and physics than biology, because she really couldn't learn it.
At that moment, she wondered, if she gave this knowledge to Chi Boyan to learn, how well would he learn it? Would he learn it faster than she did?
Lin Wei knew the answer was definitely yes without even thinking. Her only redeeming quality was probably her willingness to spend time.
Thinking about it this way, Lin Wei felt she could continue to work hard. She was already less talented than others; if she lost even this one and only advantage, what would become of her?
However, even if she wanted to work hard, she doesn't have time now because the selection trials are approaching. There are only 6 spots on the national team, and to make it, 9 out of 60 people will be eliminated, which is a huge number.
The first round of selection will eliminate three-quarters of the participants, meaning that only 15 people can participate in the second round of selection.
Even though Lin Wei was certain that she would make it into the team, she was still a little nervous. After all, the national team was a much more prestigious competition than any other event. In particular, she might become the first person from her hometown to compete abroad. How could she not be excited?
For ordinary people, being able to go abroad once is something to talk about for years, let alone such a big event.
Fortunately, Lin Jinhui and the others didn't know, otherwise they would have knelt before their ancestors and begged for her to win. This victory would be no less valuable than their ancestors becoming the top scholar in the imperial examination.
