The next day.
When Zhong Yuxiu went downstairs, she saw Yan Rushan sitting quietly in the hall, reading a newspaper; Yan Rushan heard the noise and turned around with a faint smile.
"I'm up."
As if it were a commonplace remark, Zhong Yuxiu shook her head, putting aside unnecessary thoughts, and asked, "How long has Comrade Yan been waiting?"
"Comrade Yan has been here for almost half an hour." Li Yun came out of the kitchen and said with a smile, "Comrade Zhong, I guessed that by the time you came downstairs, breakfast would have been served."
Zhong Yuxiu nodded. "Thank you, Sister Li. Where are Comrade Hao and Comrade Tian?"
"They're out exercising and should be back soon."
"Okay, I'll wash up first." As he walked downstairs, he said, "Comrade Yan, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. Is breakfast ready?"
Yan Rushan originally wanted to use it, but after a moment's hesitation, he shook his head and said, "Not yet. Comrade Zhong, do you welcome me to eat with you?"
If you are not welcome, why not come?
"Of course you're welcome. Comrade Yan has helped me a lot. What's a meal like that?"
"Then I will come here every day for free meals, and I can pay for my living expenses." Yan Rushan had a smile in his eyes and spoke calmly.
Zhong Yuxiu's eyes twitched slightly, "......."
"Could it be that Comrade Zhong doesn't welcome me?" Yan Rushan made the final decision and put down the newspaper. Seeing that he wanted to say something, Zhong Yuxiu hurriedly said, "Whatever. I'll go wash up."
When they first met, Yan Rushan was serious and indifferent; until now, the passionate heart beneath his serious appearance was exposed in front of her, making her feel at a loss.
Yan Rushan raised the corners of his lips slightly, a smile appeared on his face, and he picked up the newspaper to continue reading.
Haonan and Tian Shangguo returned, full of energy. "Comrade Yan, have you not finished reading the newspaper yet?" It had been half an hour.
Yan Rushan nodded, "It's quite interesting."
"Really? I didn't find it very interesting when I watched it." Haonan looked puzzled.
Tian Shangguo couldn't help but hold his forehead with his hand, and asked, "Is Comrade Zhong coming down?"
"Come down." Yan Rushan pointed to the bathroom.
"Then let's wash our faces and get ready for dinner."
Haonan and Tian Shangguo went outside again. There was only one bathroom in the house, so they couldn't go in if someone was inside. There was a tap outside, so they didn't care where they washed, as they were thick-skinned. They came back again, their heads dripping wet, and they changed their clothes before coming out.
After Zhong Yuxiu came out, the group sat down at the table. Yan Rushan sat next to Zhong Yuxiu very naturally and even brought her bowls, chopsticks and food.
Zhong Yuxiu had no appetite for breakfast. Yan Rushan had done too many outrageous things and was too demanding.
"Give me the book." After dinner, when the two were about to leave, Yan Rushan walked up to her, took the textbook from her hand, and said sideways, "Let's go."
Haonan and Tian Shangguo looked at each other, then moved away at the same time and followed the two men.
After leaving the compound, Haonan and the other man consciously kept a distance and followed them neither too far nor too close; after sending the two men into the campus, they found a convenient place outside the school to wait.
Yan Rushan pursued her to the end, and in order to prevent others from worrying about her, he personally sent her to the classroom door. He handed her the book and said with a gentle look.
"I'll pick you up after school at noon."
"Need not."
Yan Rushan insisted, "I'll go to your house for lunch. Sister Li's cooking is delicious."
"......." Maleic anhydride is good at climbing up the social ladder, "Comrade Yan, there must be a limit to how much you push your luck."
Yan Rushan's eyes darkened slightly. Seeing that she was about to get angry, he said, "Okay, I'll come over for dinner every morning and go home at noon."
"It's time for class." Zhong Yuxiu didn't refuse, nor did she agree. She decided to teach him a lesson. Don't think that you can do whatever you want just because you have a little affection for him. He has been testing her bottom line time and time again.
"See you later." The moment Yan Rushan turned around, his face was expressionless and the emotions in his eyes were smoothed out.
After the first class, Zhong Yuxiu went to see Professor Ding. When she arrived outside his office, Professor Ding was busy working.
"Student Zhong is here. That's great. I was just about to look for you." Professor Ding heard footsteps, looked over and saw it was her, and put down the pen in his hand.
Zhong Yuxiu stepped into the office, "Professor Ding."
"After your proposal came up yesterday, I consulted with the principal. He convened a meeting of all the professors in the physics department and felt that a student like you with a solid foundation of knowledge could be given some freedom." Professor Ding gestured to the stools for guests. "Sit down and talk."
"Thank you, Professor Ding." Zhong Yuxiu walked forward and took a seat. "When can I take the exam?"
Professor Ding frowned and thought, "Are you in a hurry to do research?"
"I wouldn't say I'm in a hurry, but I've had some inspiration these past two days that I want to put into practice." I have classes every day and have no time to practice.
"I'll discuss it with the other teachers and have the test ready as soon as possible, then I'll call you over. We'll take the test in this office."
Zhong Yuxiu nodded happily, "Thank you, Professor Ding. I'll wait for your news."
"Go to class, the bell's ringing."
"Goodbye, Professor Ding."
Professor Ding watched Zhong Yuxiu leave, shook his head, and smiled. "Ten years later, with no precedent to follow, the first class of university graduates had to cross the river by feeling the stones. Faced with an outstanding student like Zhong Yuxiu, the only thing the university could do was to try its best to meet her requirements and let her develop."
The real sin is to delay her inspiration.
When she got home that day, Zhong Yuxiu went straight to Li Yun and asked, "Sister Li, have I sorted out my lab?"
"We have just finished sorting it out today. The necessary equipment has been allocated and placed in your laboratory. Your computer has also been put in. You can go upstairs and take a look to see if you are satisfied." Two days ago, the rooms were connected and a door was added at the connection point. The original door was sealed with a wall. The higher-ups knew that Zhong Yuxiu wanted to set up a laboratory in her residence, so they found a way to allocate some equipment to her.
"I'll go up and take a look."
Zhong Yuxiu went upstairs with great steps, entered the room and opened the door to the laboratory. The dazzling array of equipment was pleasing to the eyes. It was not comparable to the equipment she used in the interstellar space mission, nor was it complete. However, they were arranged by the higher-ups with the utmost effort, and if she thought about it, they would be enough.
"That's great." Zhong Yuxiu walked forward and checked them one by one. Although they were a little old, there was no major problem.
"Master, these instruments are too outdated. Experiments will produce discrepancies in the data." Goudan followed her into the lab and approached one of the instruments. "Look at this one. It's clearly worn out. It's definitely not going to be easy to use."
Zhong Yuxiu smiled, her eyes full of joy. "Goudan, we're not in interstellar space. Compared to interstellar space, everything here is very backward. The ones up there are trying their best to meet my needs. So what if it's a little old and has some minor problems? It's not unusable."
I vaguely remember relevant records from later generations, which showed the difficult transition in the 1970s and 1980s, and the rapid development of science and technology in the 1990s.
With the equipment in hand, Zhong Yuxiu couldn't help but rub her fingers.
"Goudan, move the scrap metal out."
"Yes, Master."
Goudan dug out the scrap metal he brought from the move from the corner of the laboratory where miscellaneous items were piled up.
Zhong Yuxiu endured it again and again, then turned her head and said, "Bring me some paper and pen."
