Putting aside his high intelligence, he is simply an extreme perfectionist; no computer program could create a person with such a perfect personality.
Liang Yu was brewing coffee. As the aroma of coffee wafted out, he skillfully poured a cup for Jin Shu and then used cream to draw a cute little rabbit on the surface of the coffee cup.
He handed the coffee to Jin Shu and then quietly watched her.
"I told you before, I don't plan to get married. Like you, I want to dedicate my life to scientific research."
Jin Shu took the coffee, took a sip, and then nodded.
"People who say such things don't have a good ending. Old Wu, who recently retired, finally got to rest, but he suffered a myocardial infarction on the third day of his retirement and couldn't be saved."
Life is short, so enjoy it while you can; don't push yourself too hard.
Whenever Jin Shu spoke, Liang Yu would listen attentively, his gaze lingering on her quietly, like a pet that would respond positively to whatever she did.
"And what about you? You keep yourself very busy every day, aren't you worried about your future?"
"I'm different. I'm taking a good rest where you can't see me."
Jin Shu has gotten used to treating her 24 hours as a time to relax. During this time, she can completely empty her mind, lie down without thinking about anything, or quietly float in the hot spring under the volcano.
Judging her level of effort solely based on her usual behavior would be too simplistic.
"Teacher Jin is very capable. I can learn a lot from you. If teachers work so hard, I, as a student, certainly cannot slack off."
"Let's go back after we finish our coffee."
Where to?
"Go back to where you belong. Don't stay in the lab. I don't need assistants or students anymore, and I have nothing more to teach you."
This means to drive him away.
After learning the knowledge they wanted, all the students couldn't wait to leave and go to where they wanted to go and do what they wanted to do.
Only Liang Yu stayed here the whole time.
From the age of twenty-two to thirty, the best years of a young person's life, he spent almost the entire time doing research with Jin Shu.
At first, Jin Shu thought he was just stubborn and studious, so she was more lenient with him.
If she still can't figure out what the other person is thinking, then she's lived in vain.
There's no need to let a genius waste his time on impossible things.
Liang Yu looked at her silently, a hint of sadness in her eyes.
He was silent for a moment, then slowly began to speak.
"When I was twelve years old, I saw you in a live video. That was the first time I knew someone called Teacher Rabbit. She had a very nice voice."
From then on, I knew the direction of my life's efforts. After ten years, I finally stood in front of you and was finally qualified to say my first words to you: My name is Liang Yu.
After that, I spent another eight years standing by your side, and mustered all my courage to say my second words to you: Teacher Jin, I really like you.
My feelings for you have lasted for more than eight years.
Jin Shu smiled, pursing her lips.
"Yes, I appreciate your kind words, thank you, but I'm sorry I can't accept them."
I told you a long time ago that you can keep all your extra love for yourself. If you really want to place it elsewhere, then go love the mountains, love the sea, love the stars and the universe.
Now that I've become your teacher, in addition to academic knowledge, I also need to teach you life experience.
Okay, that's all for today. See you next time!
There was no chance left, because Jin Shu soon proved herself right. Scientists who die alone never have a good ending. Due to overwork in the first half of her life, her body developed a rare genetic disease, one that is rare in the world.
The original owner's regrets were fulfilled, and Jin Shu didn't give herself a chance to heal. Since that's the case, she might as well let nature take its course. Anyway, she had lived for more than 130 years in the previous world, and that was enough.
On the day Jin Shu passed away, flags were flown at half-mast and funeral music was played in all countries around the world. Thousands of people lined up to pay their respects. Some people were so saddened by her passing that they could not accept it and even fainted from grief.
Her name is forever recorded in the history of world science and technology, and in museums around the world today, a special place is still reserved for the statue of this great woman.

Congratulations on successfully completing the mission!
Arno's voice was filled with obvious joy.
When Jin Shu heard his voice again, she knew she had returned to where she started.
She closed her eyes and let her body float in a daze, with Arno's voice right beside her ear.
"You are the most outstanding messenger of time I have ever seen."
"Arno, I want to know, what is the point of all this?"
She lives and dies again and again, completing one task after another, and finally returning to the starting point.
What is the significance of this repetition?
"I know what you really want to ask: you want to know when this will end, right?"
"That's one way to understand it."
Before it began, she accepted everything with the intention of repaying a debt of gratitude. However, Jin Shu only wanted to know whether this act of repaying a debt of gratitude had an end.
Arno smiled.
"Don't worry, the three thousand worlds have an end, and so does our agreement."
I'll tell you when everything settles down.
"Thanks."
"You don't need to thank me, thank yourself. You didn't waste the time I gave you, nor did you waste the chance I gave you to live again."
After saying that, Arno whispered.
"Take a rest for a while. We'll start the next world when you're ready."
Jin Shu closed her eyes and nodded, at which point Arno suddenly added another sentence.
"Perhaps you want to know the fate of some people in that world? I can tell you."
"Whatever you want to say, just say it."
"The original owner's parents lived to be a hundred years old in good health and died peacefully without illness."
The male protagonist was sent to a mental hospital, which at least gave him a place to stay. As for the female protagonist, she was used and abandoned by various men time and time again, and eventually died of illness.
Finally, Liang Yu, who appeared in the latter half of your life, died young, a tragic loss to a brilliant mind. Not long after your passing, he also died in a car accident. The untimely deaths of both of you are arguably the greatest loss to the scientific community.
At this point, Jin Shu took a shallow breath.
"What happened in the last world is no longer relevant to me. Alright, I've rested enough, I can start the next mission now."
Arno smiled gently.
"Okay, sure."
Jin Shu opened her eyes, and many images flashed through her mind. These images were intertwined and she couldn't remember when they happened.
She lived for far too long; she remembered much, and she forgot much. (End of Chapter)
