At school, the graduation of the third child was finally given the green light, and the previously slow process was suddenly pushed to the very end.
The school naturally wants to retain a talent like Sanwa.
So, the department head stepped in and had a talk with Sanwa.
Only then did Sanwa reveal his thoughts.
“I received a full scholarship offer from Princeton University, so I want to go there to pursue my studies.”
Upon hearing the name Princeton, even the department head, who had been trying his best to persuade Sanwa to stay, could no longer find a way to stop him.
That's Princeton, the place that has produced so many brilliant minds, especially for those majoring in mathematics and physics; it's practically an academic mecca.
Actually, when Sanwa won the Olympiad gold medal, Princeton University extended an offer to him, but the offer wasn't as high.
When his first paper was published, the professor at Princeton who had once favored him felt a pang of regret.
But when his second paper was published, Princeton's interest in him was extraordinary.
The school quickly approved his admission with a full scholarship.
When the department head asked, Sanwa had only recently received the notification and hadn't told many people yet.
However, once the department head found out, the news that Sanwa would be graduating early and going to Princeton spread far and wide.
With his two influential papers as a foundation, it was no surprise that he received a full scholarship to Princeton.
When Zhao Qinglan and Li Huai first heard the name Princeton, they were a little confused. It wasn't until their younger brother, Xiao Duo, excitedly explained to her parents how prestigious Princeton was that they realized how difficult and honorable it was for their son to be invited by the university with a full scholarship.
Not only did they get excited, but Sun Guangming and his wife also offered their congratulations to Sanwa.
At first, Zhao Qinglan was very excited, but after calming down, she felt very reluctant to let her son go abroad for several years, even if he had the opportunity to come back in the middle.
After all, Sanwa and Xiaoduo's situations are different.
Sanwa entered university early and graduated in less than two years. He hasn't even turned nineteen yet; he's only eighteen at most.
Moreover, he's not just going abroad to pursue a master's degree; he's going to do a combined master's and doctoral program.
Even though she knew her youngest son was always smart, she had no idea how he could graduate and come back these past few years.
The main concern is that her youngest son, despite appearing intelligent, is lazy and sharp-tongued. She fears that if he goes abroad to study, he might offend someone and suffer some harm.
So, Zhao Qinglan is now preparing the same set she originally planned for her daughter.
Find out about houses around Princeton, arrange suitable bodyguards, and make all sorts of other arrangements.
Fortunately, she still had plenty of time to prepare.
The third child has already graduated early and received admission to Prepinston University before the end of this semester. However, he will not actually start school until the fall semester, which is still several months away.
However, Sanwa was not in a hurry to leave the school. Even though he didn't need to attend classes, he still liked to spend time in the laboratory doing research with his mentor.
After his two papers were published in top international journals, the senior students in the lab now not only respect him, but also regard him as a senior.
Right now, the gap between them may not seem that big, but Sanwa is going to Princeton for further studies, and as time goes on, the gap between them may widen.
Sanwa not only surpassed them, but may also leave them far behind in the future.
When the mentor is not around, everyone will directly ask Sanwa for help with any problems they encounter, as if they have already regarded him as someone just like the mentor.
Sanwa is still a bit naive and can't give clear answers to some questions, but those who ask him don't dare to underestimate him.
Because he can actually provide answers most of the time, which is already quite impressive.
Sanwa was overjoyed when he learned that his mother was going to buy him a house around Princeton and arrange for a bodyguard who was both capable of fighting and could take care of his daily life.
He didn't feel there was anything wrong with enjoying the family's resources; he just felt that this way he could spend more time studying and researching.
In his world, these are the things that are more valuable.
When the eldest and second children learned of their younger brother's heroic act, they were happy for him, but they were also a little sad because they thought that they might not see their brother again in the future.
They all wanted to find an opportunity to go home again before Sanwa went abroad for further studies, so they could have a proper meeting with him.
The second child is relatively easy to manage; he's self-employed now and can go home whenever he wants. But for the eldest child, going home isn't so easy.
However, they still managed to find an opportunity for the eldest child first.
They had a business trip to the capital, and Da Wa got it done for them.
Once he arrived in the capital, he met his younger brother, and also saw his mother and his sister, whose belly was already showing.
"If Sanwa goes home for summer vacation, maybe I can take a few more days off to go back too."
"That would be great! We can invite Erwa and Yu Xiang over too, and our family can have another reunion," Zhao Qinglan said expectantly.
Xiao Duo's belly slowly swelled up like an inflating balloon, and her appetite remained good after her morning sickness subsided.
She has gained a lot of weight compared to before, and when she learned that her mother and brother had arranged to have a get-together at home during the summer vacation, she immediately said that she would participate.
Calculating her due date, she will give birth in July. If she waits until the baby is a month old before going home, she can make it to the family gathering before her third child goes abroad.
Zhao Qinglan didn't immediately agree to her daughter's request, only saying that they would see how things went.
When the school summer vacation started, the professors and senior students all had their own plans.
Although Sanwa still wanted to stay in the lab, he had already obtained his graduation certificate and degree certificate, so he was no longer a student and it would be inappropriate for him to continue staying at the school.
Unfortunately, the third child had no choice but to leave school.
Although he didn't live in the school dormitory before, he still kept his dormitory bed. Now that he has graduated, his bed is gone.
Because Xiao Duo's due date was approaching, Zhao Qinglan was even more hesitant to leave, and Sanwa didn't go home immediately, continuing to live in the capital.
A few days before Xiaoduo's due date, she checked into a hospital ward.
However, she went into labor two days past her due date.
When she went into labor, her mother, brother, husband, mother-in-law, father-in-law, and even the Zhou family patriarch were all waiting at the hospital.
Even her relatives who weren't physically present prayed for her and awaited the outcome.
Ever since Xiao Duo was wheeled into the delivery room, Zhao Qinglan sat outside with pale lips.
Everyone else was worried, but no one seemed to see the situation as bad as she did.
Looking at his mother's appearance, Sanwa realized her secret.
