Meng Qing paused, looked up at Meng Xu, who was looking down and unaware of Meng Qing's gaze, eating fruit while browsing new posts on the school forum.
"I have to say, even in such a blurry candid photo, you can still tell she's beautiful. Everyone who's seen her in person says she's stunningly beautiful, and that Nuwa specially gave her special treatment to create her."
"They also said that photos can't capture even a tenth of the beauty. It's a pity I'm unlucky; I haven't encountered anything since school started all this time."
Meng Xu and Meng Qingshi were in the same year. Meng Xu was in the Physics Department, which was right next to the Mathematics Department, but he had never met him.
"Stop skipping class all the time, you might just run into him."
Meng Xu was always playful, and after Meng Qing came back, he completely let loose.
This is the age when people are really carefree, and he has a lot of friends. Today he's making plans to play ball, tomorrow to go racing, and the day after to go cycling...
There are too many to make appointments with, absolutely too many.
Meng Xu had already studied all the freshman courses in advance. He won an award in a competition in high school and was directly admitted to the Physics Department of Peking University. He went straight into the laboratory as soon as the semester started, and the dean personally supervised him.
Whether he listened to the basic courses in his freshman year or not, it didn't matter. Apart from the labs he had to go to, he spent the rest of his time hanging out outside.
"Someone invited me, it would be so awkward not to go..."
"I'm starting classes next week. I want to see just how good-looking this person is. Maybe I can even make friends with him and hang out together sometime..."
"Don't bother him."
Meng Xu was stunned when she heard this, and after realizing what she meant, she stammered, "Brother, you...you really know him?"
"Yes, I know him."
Meng Xu remained silent for a moment, and after some wild speculation based on Meng Qing's tone, he understood.
I understand, brother.
"Got it! Don't worry, brother, I'll definitely keep a close eye on him and make sure no one harasses him!"
Meng Qing didn't refute, and continued to handle company matters, leaving only Meng Xu muttering to himself.
Meng Xu finished eating all the fruit that had been brought in for Meng Qing, then said somewhat apologetically that she wouldn't disturb his work and left with the empty plate.
The next morning, Meng Xu drove back to school. The Meng family's old house was quite a distance from Peking University, so he didn't stay there the night before and went back to his own home.
Meng Xu did not live in the dormitory. Meng Pang bought him an apartment near Peking University so that he could live off-campus if he didn't like staying at school.
Meng Xu was naturally more than happy to accept this offer. He sometimes played games until very late, and he couldn't bear to disturb others if he actually stayed at the hotel.
It's better to stay outside.
With no classes in the morning, Meng Xu went straight to the lab as usual. He had several projects on hand, and the progress wasn't too tight, so the dean wasn't urging him. However, Meng Xu didn't like to procrastinate when it came to experiments. He could play around, but he couldn't let his projects fall behind.
After finishing her morning work, Meng Xu organized some data and was about to go out for lunch when she ran into a senior from the same department who was carrying a large, rickety stack of documents.
Meng Xu quickly stepped forward and took the documents from her. The senior student breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that it was Meng Xu.
"Luckily you acted in time, I almost lost my grip, I didn't expect it to be so heavy."
"Where are these going? I'll help you."
"Thank you so much! I'll treat you to dinner sometime."
Meng Xu followed her senior to the adjacent mathematics department and went to the mathematics laboratory building. Her senior took the materials to find the professor, while Meng Xu wandered around outside alone.
Passing by the back door of a classroom, Meng Xu saw a slightly wrinkled piece of paper in the trash can outside. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a lab registration form.
Meng Xu picked up the registration form.
At the front of the classroom, two students were organizing their registration materials for this year's math lab. Just as they were about to leave, they saw someone standing at the door.
"Hi senior, is this where I submit my registration form?"
The two were taken aback for a moment, but the girl quickly realized what was happening and nodded.
"I'm here to submit my friend's registration form. Is it still in time?"
Meng Xu is very handsome and tall. He has an American-style spiky haircut and is wearing a sportswear outfit, exuding a youthful vibe.
The girl looked at Meng Xu, her face slightly flushed, and after a long while she finally spoke: "There's still time, just give it to me."
The girl took the registration form and saw the name on it: Shi Qian.
She knew she was the prettiest freshman; it seemed that good-looking people always made friends with other good-looking people.
The boy standing to the side was also taken aback when he saw the name on the registration form, and his expression turned rather unpleasant.
"If we can make it in time, then we won't disturb the seniors' work."
After confirming that the registration forms had been submitted, Meng Xu turned and left. He had just noticed the reactions of the two people and knew exactly what was going on.
Shi Qian's fame is so great right after entering the school, it's inevitable that he will attract jealousy. It's possible that someone deliberately threw away Shi Qian's application form to prevent him from registering.
Fortunately, he ran into him today, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to register for the Shi Qian name.
I need to talk to Meng Qing about this later. I helped Shi Qian so much, so I have to make sure my older brother Meng Qing buys him a new race car.
Shi Qian was reading in her dorm. Fu Xiuhan hadn't come in the past few days; he had family matters to attend to and was dragged back by his older brother. Yan Ge had also taken on a new business deal and had asked for leave to shoot an advertisement.
Zhang Xuanshan and Han Zhuojing went to the library to study and asked Shi Qian to join them, but Shi Qian refused, preferring to study alone in his dormitory.
He received a message last night that his application to the lab had been approved. He will take an exam in three days, and after passing the exam, there will be a two-way selection process to determine which supervisor he will be assigned to.
Shi Qian didn't have a particular mentor she wanted; she just wanted to get in.
On the day of the exam, Shi Qian found that there were quite a few people who had signed up. The mathematics lab at Kyoto University was very famous, ranking among the top three in the country. In addition, if you could get in, you could get extra credits, which naturally attracted many people to sign up.
The entire exam is conducted online, lasting 4 hours, with 200 multiple-choice questions and 5 essay questions, for a total score of 300.
The number of questions was considerable, and the difficulty was also high. Many people gave up before the time was up, and half a fifth of the people were gone half an hour after the exam started.
Shi Qian finished the problems in just an hour and a half. These problems were not difficult for him; at most, the calculations were a bit extensive, which happened to be Shi Qian's strength.
After submitting the form and leaving the classroom, Su Yang, the boy who had collected the registration forms that day, was standing at the front door assisting with the invigilation.
Su Yang disliked Shi Qian. He heard Shi Qian's name the most every day. So what if she was good-looking? Su Yang was a little jealous, so he deliberately threw away Shi Qian's application form that day.
Su Yang didn't know if that so-called friend of Shi Qian was real; at least he had never seen him in the mathematics department.
Su Yang recognized the registration form as the same one he had thrown away. He should have just crumpled it up and thrown it away to avoid being bothered by others.
He watched as Shi Qian left in less than two hours, and sneered. He thought Shi Qian had some special skills, but he still gave up the exam.
It seems he worried for nothing. Even if he hadn't thrown away Shi Qian's application form, Shi Qian still wouldn't have passed the exam.
He really is a useless good-for-nothing. What's with all the pretense?
