Chapter 30 "The Real and Fake Heiresses" The real heiress will sit on the judging panel (Chapter 13...)
I thought meeting a legendary scholar would be very stressful, but it turned out to be so easy in the end!
When Meng Xuedong walked out of Old Yang's house, he was still savoring the moment. He looked at Ye Xiqing with admiration and said, "Master Xi, you truly are a genius who can summon a god to earth with a letter. You really know how to talk!"
Ye Xiqing smiled slightly.
If someone lacks money, appeal to them with benefits; if someone lacks love, appeal to them with emotions; if someone lacks nothing, appeal to them with ideals. This is an eternal truth.
The only thing that ages with time is the human body; the passion for life can be drawn out from the very bones at any moment.
Even someone as strong as Yang Wenqing would be moved by her "extreme" ideals, because in this world that inexplicably favors men, women can easily feel the malice stemming from their gender.
Once they convinced this academic giant, everything became easy, and the two quickly gained connections in all aspects of life.
But Yang Wenqing also solemnly reminded them that drug research and development is always a bottomless pit, and there may never be any return.
Even with government funding and investment from various sources, it's not guaranteed that she could have continued, let alone building her own team.
Her ideals are lofty, but you could learn from her for a few years and join a well-established experimental group. You would not only learn more, but it would also be safer.
But Ye Xiqing was as stubborn as an ox: "I don't want to join a mature experimental group where I have no say. I just want everyone to work according to my wishes."
"I will spend six months learning all the knowledge points of undergraduate pharmacy, and then learn more advanced knowledge from you, Professor Yang, and carry out my work according to my own wishes."
"As for money, I don't care. I'm a second-generation rich kid, and my family is very wealthy."
Yang Wenqing: ...
Okay then. Compared to the stereotypical image of rich kids squandering money, Ye Xiqing's spending at least has some social value.
If she can really learn all the subjects in six months, then even if the lab goes bankrupt, she'll still have a job in this field...
In fact, many people who do scientific research have some quirks. Ye Xiqing is just a little radical in his thinking, but it can't be considered a major problem.
Yang Wenqing had taught students before and knew that teaching students was like teaching ancestors. If you think of yourself as a mother and want to control everything, then you're doomed. Just let the ancestors do whatever they want.
Unlike Yang Wenqing's deep concern, Meng Xuedong was full of energy after coming out.
She used to think the boss was acting on a whim because she was completely clueless, but now that Mr. Yang has joined the team, what is there to be afraid of!
The idea of "a laboratory entirely of her own" was incredibly appealing to her!
She was too young to empathize with Mr. Yang's realistic considerations; all she noticed was that this was entrepreneurship, and that this was college students starting a business!
The ultimate goal of a corporate slave is to one day start her own business. Although she has not yet fully become a corporate slave, she already has the dream of a corporate slave, and now that dream has come true!
Meng Xuedong asked with great interest about the next steps: "Where are we going to recruit people for the lab?"
"With so many female students graduating from the pharmacy program at X University every year, how can we not find suitable candidates?"
"Yes! I'll go to my part-time job group and ask a senior in college. I'll look for qualified professionals, like those with master's or doctoral degrees who aren't having much luck in their jobs. It would be even better if they have menstrual cramps!"
Ye Xiqing, who had been focused on driving and was only half-heartedly replying to Meng Xuedong's questions, became interested upon hearing this: "Why?"
"Of course, only people who suffer from menstrual cramps are motivated to research menstrual pain medication!"
"And those who know, know. Most of the senior executives in those companies are old fogies. Even if a senior student is better than a senior student, it doesn't necessarily mean she'll have an easy time finding a job."
"Not to mention those who might not even get a job, but go straight home after graduation, get married, have children, and take care of their husbands and kids—ugh! So annoying!"
"Why is it that everyone in the world benefits from women's childbirth, but only women suffer because of it?"
"Sometimes I get really angry, so if you want to become a staunch feminist fighter, I will firmly follow you!"
"Heh." Ye Xiqing was genuinely amused by her: "Then aren't you afraid that my makeshift operation might go bankrupt one day?"
"No! No! No! We're not a makeshift crew!"
"As the saying goes, 'Meat-eaters are base and incapable of long-term planning.' We are vegetarians with ideals, ambitions, and capabilities!"
"Menstrual cramps aren't a lifesaver, they're not that hard to treat. A bunch of people are taking the funding and doing nothing. It's time for us to step in and clean up the pharmaceutical industry!"
"I just don't know what to name our company. We'll have to think about it carefully..."
"Qingqing Technology".
"Huh? Xi Shen, it's just named after you like that?"
"Otherwise, I'll pay for it. Do you have any objections?"
Meng Xuedong: ...
She dared not offer any opinions, but boss, your naming method is too narcissistic!
...
During the two weeks of military training, a lot happened. The most famous gossip in X University was the clash between the "legendary academic genius" and the "legendary campus heartthrob".
Ye Xiqing is a prominent figure at the height of her career, while Qin Nian has been a prominent figure for four consecutive years, so public opinion is not as one-sided as one might imagine.
"It can't be that bad. All you did was ask for his WeChat. Qin Nian is a handsome guy and a rich second-generation heir who drives luxury cars. Are you trying to get the short end of the stick?"
"Is this woman's publicity stunt ever going to end? Can't she just stay quiet for a few days? She causes trouble as soon as she comes to school. Is she trying to be a female celebrity on campus?"
"+1, so what if you scored 746 on the college entrance exam? There are plenty of research giants who didn't even take the college entrance exam. Why don't you ask them for your score?"
"Exactly! This fairy got a high score and is getting too cocky. She should focus on improving her exam skills before she gets so arrogant. Super sensitive skin!"
"Qin Nian is the best student in our pharmacy school. As for her academic strength, it's hard to say. Junior, your task is to attend classes first."
Negative comments kept coming. Although Qin Nian left looking disheveled after that "confrontation," the thing guys hate most is when a girl throws a tantrum and acts like she's some kind of precious treasure when a guy asks for her WeChat.
So without any organization, regardless of whether they previously thought highly of Qin Nian, the "school heartthrob," they all tacitly formed a united front and began to dig into the background of this "genius girl," trying to find every possible point to ridicule.
However, every gain has its loss. Originally, Qin Nian had a lot of female fans because of his handsome face, but when these strangely familiar and disgusting comments came on, the female fans immediately held their noses and backed away.
"No wonder there was such a stench as soon as I came in; it turns out V had urinated and defecated on the floor again."
"Yes, yes, yes, those top students only need to score 746 points, but our Tianli Dreamers have to consider many more things."
"Summer is here, and things are in heat again. Our school heartthrob thinks he's charming, but the top student girl doesn't even look at him."
"Rich second generation? Hilarious. Who isn't a rich second generation? The academic genius sister, the daughter of the Ye family, can easily spend a little pocket money, enough for the money-grubbing dogs in the comments to lick for a lifetime."
“She’s a woman, what does her family’s wealth have to do with her? It’s not her turn to inherit.”
"Oh right, right! You inherit! You inherit! You're only a little bit old, so you can inherit! Who dares to disobey our little Yaozu!"
...
When men start thinking, God laughs. I really don't want to stir up gender antagonism, but some men are just full of shit. If I don't scold them, they'll think others like they're enjoying it.
Hou Nianyun risked her life to blow up the cesspool, confronting the alien mindset head-on. In her excitement, she couldn't help but jump up from the upper bunk and, like a female ghost, scramble down to the lower bunk.
"I'm begging you, Xue Li, can you please stop having a crush on Qin Nian?! The idol has to pay for the fans' actions, and I'm starting to find this ridiculous!"
Ye Xueli: ……
“That’s what other people say… Brother Anian isn’t like that…”
"Ugh! He's been hitting on random female elementary school girls, what else could he be!"
"That was a misunderstanding. Actually, I'm partly to blame. They thought that was my sister."
"Isn't that even worse! He knows you like him, yet he still flirts with someone else right in front of you, and that person is your sister!"
"Well, although it seems excessive to you, upon closer examination, it's actually quite complex..."
"Ugh! How is this so complicated?! I don't understand! You're good-looking, highly skilled, and have so many admirers, why do you have to like him?!"
Ye Xueli: ……
She moved out of the house just like Ye Xiqing, and no matter how much Ji Yuxiu tried to stop her, it was no use.
She used to love that home, but now, for some reason, she always wants to escape.
She thought that perhaps she was self-aware enough to know that if her brothers couldn't compete with Ye Xiqing, then she naturally couldn't either.
Since that's the case, it's better not to fight it out and try to live your own life.
At first, she was filled with fear of university dormitories, and many imaginings came to mind, but when she actually moved in, she found that it wasn't so scary.
Her roommates didn't know how to describe it, but she lived a very normal life. Almost no one pried into her privacy, so no one investigated whether she was a real heiress or not. Under the gaze of a group of strangers, she could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Only Hou Nianyun, who occupies the upper bunk, is very lively and outgoing. She seems to have a lot of energy every day, and sometimes you don't know what to do with her.
But Ye Xueli inexplicably relies on her quite a bit. Just like now, Hou Nianyun naturally thinks that between Brother Nian and herself, she is the one who deserves to be liked.
Although no one worshipped Qin Nian like a god more than she did, she inexplicably liked this feeling, so she acted even more intensely.
She wasn't actually that disappointed, but she just wanted to act all gloomy and dejected in front of Hou Nianyun, she didn't know why...
"Aaaaaah!" Hou Nianyun was devastated.
She didn't know that Ye Xueli's performance was 50% acting; the harm she suffered was real!
This is the legendary case of one fan being worth ten haters. She hadn't even met Qin Nian yet, but because of his fanatical fans, she already harbored a deep-seated hatred for him!
Unable to vent her frustration, she decided to go to the campus forum to continue her selfless act of "blowing up the cesspool" and have a three-hundred-round battle with those ordinary guys who were inexplicably confident.
But the argument only got worse, because all arguments eventually come down to a contest of strength. Qin Nian was already a senior, while Ye Xiqing had just started university.
I don't know which Qin Nian fanatic compiled a table listing his honors and achievements during his four years of university:
Award of Excellence in the National College Students' Pharmacy Knowledge Competition (2 times).
Chemistry Prize Competition Special Prize X1.
The NBC academic journal includes X2.
The journal *Biology* includes X1
...
The list is densely packed with various competitions and awards, and at the end is a declaration: "Junior, we're waiting for you to challenge me!"
Hou Nianyun was very angry because, in the final analysis, it was Qin Nian and his group who acted like they were on drugs, inexplicably going to confront and chat up the junior school girl. As a result, public opinion shifted to who was stronger, as if it was an honor for her to harass him.
But if you don't fight back and try to reason with them, they'll just laugh and joke around, as if they're afraid to compete.
If we were to compare, not to mention that Ye Xiqing has just entered university and everything is still unknown, we have great confidence in her, so why put so much pressure on her?
Hou Nianyun hated this feeling. In every industry, there are countless mediocre men who are just naturally mediocre, but women have to be extremely outstanding in order to "shut others up."
Sometimes she might hope that a certain individual heroine would slap her in the face, but she also knows that excessive expectations are a kind of torture for the person in the center of those expectations.
So she decided to only attack and not defend, regardless of what the junior girls were like, she just wanted to curse these idiots to her heart's content!
His exceptional combat prowess, coupled with his sarcastic and unsettling way of speaking, has broken down the defenses of countless people and garnered numerous likes.
But deep down, I was hoping that you would be invincible, my junior.
