Chapter 130 Reason
However, after finally figuring out the matter, Zhang Wei was still very grateful to Hayat. After all, they were not familiar with each other before.
"If you want to go with me tomorrow, go ahead. I believe she won't say anything to my face."
Zhang Wei thought about it and felt that if she showed up suddenly tomorrow, it would certainly make Professor Townsley look bad, but she felt that it was not worth wasting time on this, if what Hayat said was true.
"No, I'm not very interested in physics, thank you."
Fortunately, she herself was not very interested in physics, so getting an A in the exam was enough for her.
"Okay, it's okay if you don't go. Tracy isn't going tomorrow either, so you can go and keep her company if you don't go home."
Zhang Wei nodded. It was understandable that Tracy didn't want to go. Although Professor Townsley was their teacher and knew about her behavior and didn't cooperate, she was not afraid of making things difficult for her. After all, she would probably have to rely on the title of princess tutor to make a living in the future.
If the princess changes her tutor out of displeasure, she will end up losing more than she gains.
Zhang Wei didn't go this time because she didn't want to have a head-on conflict with her, lest Professor Townsley make a note of her comments, which would be enough to make her very upset. After all, when you are under someone's roof, you should just play dumb.
In comparison, Alia seemed a little pessimistic. Zhang Wei sneered when she thought of her, feeling that she was a little self-indulgent. Although she knew before that Alia attached great importance to her studies, she didn't want to tell her this time. Zhang Wei still felt a little uncomfortable.
"If you don't go home on the weekend, you can come visit us. We don't go home often, and there are so many fun things to do with us!"
Hayat said this and winked at Zhang Wei with interest.
"Okay, I will."
After Zhang Wei sent Hayat away, he sat at the desk thinking, how to solve this problem?
She had indeed not offended Professor Townsley, and together with Alia, who was also disliked by her, the only thing they had in common was that they were foreigners and not white.
First, although the Alia family is a high-ranking official in India, they cannot control Britain. Although the Wilson family is rich, they are definitely not as powerful as Butch and others in Country A, let alone Tracy.
Among these twelve students, anyone can clearly tell which one is more important.
As to whether it is racial discrimination, this is debatable. The British are smarter than the people of Country A and know how to hide it better. What's more, she is a university professor and is more sensitive to racial discrimination. So even if she is a racist, she dare not show it.
For the time being, she had no other choice. As for applying to change her supervisor, that was the worst option.
Because as long as this application is submitted, it is equivalent to breaking off relations. Not to mention whether the application will be successful, even if the application is successful, who knows if it will not be another Professor Townsley?
What Zhang Wei is most grateful for is that she is not teaching her own course. She is teaching physics to classes B and C.
So as long as Zhang Wei maintains her physics grades, she can meet her only once a week and keep things on the surface peaceful. As for going to the Cambridge laboratory, just pretend she never heard of it!
She wanted to pretend she hadn't heard it, but someone insisted on showing it off in front of her, and that person was Butch.
Because the breakfast time is fixed, if you miss the time you will not be able to have breakfast, so everyone still has breakfast together the next morning.
"Oh! Why is everyone here?!" Even Mia's grandmother, who always gets up early, was very surprised. On Saturday morning, everyone in the dormitory had breakfast together at 8 o'clock in the morning.
"We're all busy! Our teacher asked us to go to Cambridge to study, but maybe Vera doesn't need to get up so early?"
Butch was holding a piece of bread and looking at Zhang Wei provocatively.
Zhang Wei would not give her face this time and said with a smile:
"That's still not as early as you. I don't have the fortitude to get up at 5:30 in the morning to deliver a letter!"
Butch's face turned pale immediately, and even Grandma Mia looked at her in confusion.
Butch stammered in defense, "What... five... half past five? I don't know what you're talking about?"
"You don't know, I think a man named Joe—"
"Joke! Just kidding, Vera is joking with me!" Butch interrupted her loudly and reached out to pull Zhang Wei.
Zhang Wei still let her pull him, but he shook her off in an instant. Now everyone could see what leverage Zhang Wei had over Butch.
Even Grandma Mia looked at the two of them suspiciously.
Zhang Wei had no guilty conscience and let her see it calmly, while Butch, feeling guilty as a thief, looked at Zhang Wei flatteringly and said:
"It's just that set of 'World Flora and Fauna', I'll give it to you. Actually, I don't like it that much, but if you like it, I'll give it to you! Don't be angry."
Unexpectedly, there was an unexpected gain. Zhang Wei smiled and decided to let her go:
"Then you must keep your word!"
Now everyone except Mia's grandmother knew that Butch was in Zhang Wei's control.
Because Butch's "Illustrated Guide to the World's Flora and Fauna" is the most comprehensive biological atlas in the world, and because it was published more than a hundred years ago, it contains many extinct animals and plants. Currently, there are only two copies in the world, and another one is in the collection of the Royal Museum of the United Kingdom.
So after Butch got this set of books, he showed it off in the Excellence Building. Zhang Wei saw it and kept it in mind.
She was very interested in biology and even asked booksellers in Country A, but she found that this set of books could not be found anywhere else.
Moreover, this set of books is well illustrated with both text and pictures, and is very beautifully compiled. The colored pictures are also lifelike. Not only is it a biology book, but even if it is read as a painting book, it is very valuable, so it can be said to be a real treasure.
So Zhang Wei finished her breakfast happily and went upstairs to read, not caring what others were doing. As for Hayat's previous suggestion that she go find Tracy, she just listened to it, as it would be a bad idea to rush after her.
Moreover, from Professor Townsley's behavior, it can be seen that if other tutors want to cultivate students they like, they can give them a lot of special training. This gives Zhang Wei a sense of urgency, and she must work harder.
Especially biology, which she likes very much, I believe that with the "Illustrated Encyclopedia of World Fauna and Flora", she will be more enthusiastic about learning.
Zhang Wei thought of the letter she left and felt that it might not be safe. After all, there was nothing particularly excessive in the letter. It seemed that she would have to check again next time. She just didn't know whether Butch had moved the letter after losing it.
It feels really good to get something for nothing, no wonder so many people like to rob.
When Zhang Wei put Professor Townsley's affairs aside and concentrated on studying, autumn vacation arrived.
British schools are divided into three semesters, and the midterm break is at the end of October. To be honest, Zhang Wei only had less than two months of classes, but it felt like half a year had passed.
The half-term vacation is not a time for them to go home and rest. The school arranges a week of outdoor practical activities during the two-week vacation, and every first-year student must participate.
