"Mom showed me a picture of my great-grandfather."
Rui Rui said in her childish voice, "A photo of Great-Grandpa, Dad, and Uncle Yang. Mom said that Great-Grandpa is a great scientist, just like my Great-Grandpa. Dad is Great-Grandpa's student. When I grow up, I want to be Great-Grandpa's student too."
Professor Tang burst into laughter.
Who wouldn't want to teach such a smart kid? It's just a pity that by the time Rui Rui grows up, this old man will be buried.
Rui Rui stayed in Professor Tang's arms for a while, then let out a big yawn.
Professor Tang glanced at his watch and said, "Xiao Gu, Xiao Yang, it's almost ten o'clock. You should go home."
Gu Zhiyun took Rui Rui and put a hat and gloves on him.
The little guy was wrapped up like a ball.
Goodbye, Great-Grandpa.
Before leaving, Rui Rui made sure to say goodbye to Professor Tang.
At the entrance of the auditorium, Tang Xiaoran grabbed Gu Zhiyun's arm.
He spent the whole night looking for an opportunity to get closer to her, and finally she caught him.
"Xiao Gu, come here, I have something to tell you!"
Gu Zhiyun stood still.
"Teacher Tang, please say what you have to say here."
Tang Xiaoran saw that there were people coming and going at the entrance of the auditorium, so it was definitely not a place to have private conversations.
I don't know if Gu Zhiyun is pretending to be stupid or if she is really stupid. Isn't her hint obvious enough?
"This isn't the place to talk..." Tang Xiaoran said urgently.
Gu Zhiyun looked at her with deep, calm eyes, his tone indifferent.
"Teacher Tang, it's getting late, it's a bit inappropriate for us to talk alone."
He was making it clear that he wanted to keep his distance from her.
Tang Xiaoran had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "Xiao Gu, since you've decided to pursue a doctorate, I'll support you unconditionally. I got my doctorate based on my own merit, so I have experience. I'm not too busy with work lately, so I can find some time to tutor you."
I believe Gu Zhiyun won't miss such a good opportunity.
He was so grateful to her, the youngest academician in the aerospace academy, for tutoring him!
If Gu Zhiyun agrees, she will have another chance to be alone with him.
She waited expectantly for Gu Zhiyun's reply.
Gu Zhiyun refused without hesitation, saying, "Teacher Tang, I appreciate your kindness, but you should know that Professor Xu is my grandfather. It's more convenient for me to contact him. He's retired and has plenty of free time, so there's no need to trouble you."
"But isn't Professor Xu suffering from Alzheimer's disease?"
Gu Zhiyun felt that Tang Xiaoran's words were very impolite.
“Professor Tang, it’s true that my grandfather can’t remember some people and things. What he can’t remember are all unimportant. He’s been doing academic research all his life, and the knowledge is already etched into his mind.”
Before Tang Xiaoran could say anything more, Rui Rui rubbed her sleepy eyes and said:
"Dad, I'm sleepy, I want to go home and sleep."
Gu Zhiyun nodded to Tang Xiaoran as a farewell, and was about to leave when Tang Xiaoran grabbed his arm.
Rui Rui immediately burst into tears: "Daddy, I want to go home!"
Gu Zhiyun said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Teacher Tang, I have to go."
He carried Rui Rui and strode out of the auditorium, with Tang Xiaoran chasing after him.
“Xiao Gu, I still think it’s better for me to tutor you. Professor Xu is getting old and hasn’t been teaching for several years, so there’s not much he can teach you. As for me—”
"Brother Yun, the event is over!"
A clear and pleasant voice interrupted Tang Xiaoran's incessant chatter.
Gu Zhiyun looked up and saw Shen Jingyan wearing a red coat, standing gracefully in the cold wind, like a red plum blossom blooming in the snow.
The weather was cold, but her smile was warm.
Gu Zhiyun smiled brightly and quickened his pace to walk forward.
Tang Xiaoran had never seen Gu Zhiyun smile so beautifully.
When he looked at her, there was always a distant coldness in his eyes.
That smile pierced Tang Xiaoran's heart, and she felt the cold wind grow even more biting.
"Jingya, why did you come out in such cold weather?"
Gu Zhiyun took off his scarf and wrapped it around Shen Jingyan's neck.
He stroked her small face with his large hand, and said with a touch of heartache, "It's so late, why are you still out here!"

Shen Jingyan handed him the thermos: "It's all because you're so forgetful! You even forgot to bring your thermos! I made some brown sugar ginger tea, drink it while it's hot, there are so many people with colds and fevers lately."
Gu Zhiyun opened the insulation lid and tested the temperature.
The temperature is just right, not too hot.
He first brought the bottle to Shen Jingyan's lips: "You drink first, look at you, you're freezing."
After taking a few sips, Shen Jingyan pushed the bottle towards him and said, "I've already had some at home, you should drink this."
Gu Zhiyun then brought the thermos to Rui Rui's lips and fed her a few small sips.
The little guy drank the brown sugar ginger tea and felt warm in his stomach, which made him even sleepier.
Gu Zhiyun then picked up the thermos and drank it all in one gulp.
"Let's go home."
The family of three walking side by side on the road was particularly eye-catching, even late at night.
