“This car is quite good.” Yuan Xiao did not care at all. She leaned against the back seat casually. “I don’t think there’s a need to change it. It can transport people and goods. How convenient.”
Shen Hai looked at Yuan Xiao, who was not bothered at all, and a blissful smile appeared on his face. “Xiao Mei, when our shop expands, we’ll hire more employees to open a chain store. When the time comes, we’ll have some time to travel around the world as a family.”
“Alright, when our daughter gets married in the future, who will accompany you old man around the world? Aren’t you afraid that your son-in-law will be worried?” Although Feng Mei refuted Shen Hai, her face was also filled with a smile.
“Then we’ll bring our son-in-law along. Anyway, Xiao Xiao is my daughter. Who would dare to not allow me to bring my daughter along?
Yuan Xiao listened to her parents bickering in the front row and felt blissful. If not for the fact that she was obsessed with things that did not belong to her in her previous life, she would probably have obtained the happiness she deserved.
On the morning of the weekend, Yuan Xiao tried to contact Academician Bai Bo with the business card that he had left for her.
Unexpectedly, Academician Bai happily gave Yuan Xiao his home address and agreed to meet her.
Yuan Xiao packed up briefly and quickly left home with the content of her previous research topic.
Academician Bai Bo’s address was an old-fashioned residential building. Yuan Xiao was very surprised that a famous old professor would live in such a simple place.
After bringing some simple gifts, Yuan Xiao found his residence according to the address provided by Academician Bai Bo.
Yuan Xiao knocked on the door and asked politely, “Hello, is this Old Master Bai’s house?
An elderly woman’s voice came from the door. Yuan Xiao could hear her slow footsteps as she waited patiently at the door.
“You must be Yuan Xiao. Come in, child.” A woman in her seventies brought Yuan Xiao a pair of slippers and spoke to her warmly.
“Thank you very much.”
“Old Bai, the Yuan Xiao you mentioned just now is here.”
Yuan Xiao followed behind the old lady and saw Academician Bai Bo sunbathing by the balcony window.
“Xiao Xiao, come and sit.” Academician Bai saw Yuan Xiao standing behind his wife and enthusiastically gestured for her to sit.
“Old Master Bai, I came here this time to ask you for guidance.” Yuan Xiao held the research report she had organized and stood respectfully beside Academician Bai Bo. She did not sit down immediately.
“Just call me Grandpa Bai. I have a grandson who’s about the same age as you.” Academician Bai looked at Yuan Xiao kindly. He had admired Yuan Xiao’s talent since the first time he met her.
“Tell me, what do you want to ask?”
Sitting opposite Academician Bai, the old lady poured a glass of fruit juice for Yuan Xiao. “Xiao Xiao, Old Bai usually has a lot of students. This is the first time I’ve seen him so happy. After receiving your call, he’s been smiling.”
Yuan Xiao was very surprised that Academician Bai would be so enthusiastic about her. This was clearly only the second time she had met him, but it was
precisely because of this that Yuan Xiao felt much more relaxed.
‘Grandpa Bai, I want to ask you some questions. Our teacher wants me to participate in a scientific research competition. I want to ask you to help see if my research proposition is feasible.”
Academician Bai was a little surprised to hear Yuan Xiao’s words. He asked her, “Is the competition organized by the Academy of Sciences?
Yuan Xiao nodded and did not hide anything.
“Then I really can’t help you much. I’ve been chosen to be a judge in this competition. If I help you give suggestions, I’m afraid it’ll be unfair to the other students.”
As soon as Academician Bai finished speaking, his wife, who was sitting at the side, looked troubled. She explained to Yuan Xiao, “Xiao Xiao, your Grandpa Bai has never been flexible in his life. He has always been stubborn. He has never even helped his biological grandson in the competition. Please don’t mind him.”
Yuan Xiao was not unhappy at all. Instead, her impression of Academician Bai Bo improved a lot. She smiled and said, “Grandpa Bai, I don’t want you to help me make suggestions. Just help me look at the proposition. I will complete the modifications and research on my own.”
Hearing Yuan Xiao’s words, Academician Bai was at ease. He took her research report and read it carefully.
Yuan Xiao waited nervously at the side. Through the system’s analysis, only
Academician Bai had the ability to research the Academic Genius System. Yuan Xiao really hoped that her research plan was feasible. Making the system was a huge challenge for Yuan Xiao..
