Chapter 216 Doctoral Studies
So in the past two years, Zhang Wei could only work hard to lay a solid foundation of knowledge, and then apply to the professor to enter the laboratory two years later.
The breadth and depth of knowledge in university courses are incomparable to those in middle school, so Zhang Wei spent more time on studying than before.
In particular, many courses belong to areas that Zhang Wei has never touched before. The sense of novelty and difficulty coexist, and she is also in pain and joy.
Of course, university is more than just studying. There are rich and colorful club activities and a variety of social activities. Although Zhang Wei is young physically, he has no psychological interest in those activities full of youthful hormones.
Especially when she already had a considerable understanding of boys of this age group, she was not interested in the peacock spreading its feathers everywhere.
One day, Zhang Wei was looking up information in the library when her cell phone suddenly rang. She then remembered that she had forgotten to turn her phone to silent mode.
Seeing that it was David calling, she hung up the phone. Anyway, this guy didn't have anything important to talk to her about.
Unexpectedly, just as she hung up, the phone rang again. It was him again.
Zhang Wei could only come out temporarily to answer the phone, and said unhappily:
"You better have something important to do!"
David on the other end of the phone said in an exaggerated tone, "It's important, of course it's important! Come to the Black Rose at 7pm!"
"What? You were drunk last night and still asleep?!"
Apart from the business they had done before, Zhang Wei and he had no personal relationship at all. Although he had asked Zhang Wei out once before, she rejected him.
Just kidding, first of all, her appearance is not up to par, and secondly, "I have an incompatible relationship with gambling and drugs."
"Black Rose" is a well-known bar with a good atmosphere near the college, where many couples go on dates.
"No, I'm serious. Don't you want to try contacting me?"
Zhang Wei heard that it was very quiet over there, as if she could hear his breathing. Although it was rare to hear him ask such a serious question, she could only say sorry:
"Sorry, I'm not interested."
As soon as Zhang Wei finished speaking, she felt the voices on the other end of the phone immediately become noisy. Thinking that this might be a drunken game played by those bastards, she immediately said:
"The main reason is that you are too ugly and don't meet my aesthetic standards!"
Then she hung up the phone. What kind of person is this? He is wasting her time. She has no interest in dating someone like him.
David threw his phone on the table and said with some disappointment:
"I told you, you asked me to make a date, and she must have discovered something just now. I bet she won't talk to me next time in class."
"Brother, buy her a gift. No girl doesn't like gifts. If you buy her a few times, she will probably like you." The brother next to him smiled when he said this.
David kicked him and yelled, "Get lost! She's from Germany, not one of those 'cheap girls' you find!"
David suddenly wiped his face and said, "Bring me the mirror. Damn, am I really ugly? No one has ever said that."
Then he looked in the mirror for five minutes to rebuild his confidence. There was nothing wrong with his appearance, deep eyes, and fascinating freckles. It was just that Zhang Wei had no taste.
Zhang Wei naturally had no time to think about what David was doing. She continued her homework in the library.
To be honest, Zhang Wei felt that as long as she was a girl, she would be easily approached in any situation at school, including the cafeteria, classroom, and playground.
There is no need to be vain, because they are not sincere. Zhang Wei has witnessed with her own eyes that after being rejected by her several times, he turned around and turned his target to the girl next to him, casting a wide net.
However, Zhang Wei found it quite interesting to occasionally hear the girls giggling because they were amused. Youth is a matter of mutual consent, and she felt a few years younger mentally when she was in it.
College life is fulfilling but short, and three years have passed in the blink of an eye.
Zhang Wei's graduate student status is not yet fully established, but he has to start applying for a doctorate. It's because a master's degree in the UK is so short.
Although her supervisor and family asked her to apply directly for a doctorate at the college, Zhang Wei still had other ideas.
She wants to go to Country A to study for a PhD in pharmacy at Harvard. Harvard has the best pharmacy program in the world. She didn't go there for her undergraduate studies because it didn't accept undergraduates. Now that she has the choice, she still wants to give it a try.
However, almost everyone, including her family and friends, thought it would be better for her to stay in Oxford.
Over the years, the Wilson family's center of life has shifted to the UK. The three brothers also work and live in the UK most of the time. Moreover, the older Emma gets, the more she needs to stay with her children, so everyone hopes that Zhang Wei will stay in the UK in the future.
Her friends, Hayat and Tracy, would get together every once in a while to talk about school. Although none of them continued their studies after graduating from college, this did not prevent them from having something in common.
Hayat said: "Even though you lived there for many years before, those were your childhood memories, but now you are still living in a strange place."
Zhang Wei said firmly, "I want to study at the best pharmacy program in the world. I have things I want to do, and everything else is not a big problem for me."
"It's great that you have such a goal. Go ahead and give it a try," Tracy supported her.
Zhang Wei certainly couldn't ignore her family's thoughts. After she returned, she had a serious talk with Emma about her future plans and told Emma that she wanted to become an excellent pharmacist.
"Vera has really grown up," Emma said lovingly, touching her hair.
"Although I'm reluctant to see you leave, the young eagles will eventually fly far away on their own when they grow up. I understand that, and I hope to see my children grow stronger and stronger."
"You don't have to feel sorry. Parents raise their children in the hope that they will become better versions of themselves, not to confine you under our wings. You're just too sensitive."
"Namir travels around the world to compete and can't even see his family at Christmas, but he doesn't feel sorry for his family. It's not like we'll never see each other again, so why should we mind?"
Zhang Wei was speechless and choked for a moment. Although she didn't get it in her previous life, she received a lot of love and respect in this life. How lucky she was!
"Did Manny say something?" Emma rubbed her back to comfort her.
Zhang Wei shook his head: "No."
Manny seems to have come to his senses over the years, as if he was shocked by his previous self. I don’t know if it is to compensate for his previous behavior, but he has begun to become more and more family-oriented.
Specifically, he would always bring his girlfriend home to spend the weekend. By the way, his girlfriend was a quiet and beautiful girl.
In fact, he didn't want Zhang Wei to study in Country A.
