Chapter 41: Qin Hanyue’s business Card; Qiao Lingling received the recommendation of Beijing University
Chapter 41
"Hey, hey, I uh, last time in Yuncheng, you won three million from me, do you still remember?" Huo Chengdong pointed at his own face, which he believed to be very recognizable, and shouted at the rising car window.
The passenger side window wasn't completely closed, leaving quite a gap, so Qin Yan in the car could hear Huo Chengdong's words very clearly. His eyes immediately widened involuntarily: Three million?
He couldn't help but turn his head back to glance at Qiao Ying, who had a completely nonchalant expression, as if he didn't even recognize Huo Chengdong at all.
Qiao Ying won three million from Young Master Huo?
Got the wrong person, right?
Qin Yan, who usually had little curiosity, now for the first time felt a strong urge to gossip. And it was particularly strong.
Huo Chengdong was anxious. Ignoring the honking of the cars behind him, he forcibly reversed his car back a little.
Just as he reached out to knock on Qiao Ying's car window, the traffic light turned green at that moment, and the black Maybach slammed the gas and drove away.
"Hey! Damn!" Huo Chengdong was so angry that he started cursing, and didn't notice the man in the black Maybach.
He muttered in puzzlement: "No, it was her! Why is she ignoring me? Didn't she recognize me?"
Although Qiao Ying had become much thinner and prettier, when he first saw her, he didn't dare to recognize her either. But Huo Chengdong was certain that the girl in the car was the one who had raced against him in a shabby Honda in Yuncheng before, and won.
Huo Chengdong clicked his tongue in annoyance. He was in a very bad mood, and when he heard the constant honking from the cars behind, he turned his head and yelled angrily, "Beep beep beep your mom's beep, do you believe I'll smash your damn car later!"
The black Maybach stopped at the entrance of the Inho Hotel.
Before Qiao Ying could get out of the car, she heard the man next to her say, "Miss Qiao, if you don't mind, my assistant can go up with you to get your luggage. I'll take you to the airport later."
Qiao Ying smiled perfunctorily: "Mr. Qin is very enthusiastic."
Qin Hanyue: "It's only right."
"No need, I'm staying here tonight, leaving tomorrow," Qiao Ying said, no longer pretending with him.
Unexpectedly, Qin Hanyue didn't look surprised at all. On the contrary, he climbed further: "Then can I invite Miss Qiao to have a meal?"
"I'm on a diet."
Qin Hanyue smiled and had to let it go.
Qiao Ying got out of the car and took the large bag of medicine from Qin Yan's hand, only to see Qin Hanyue get out of the car from the other side and come to her.
The man was at least 1.9 meters tall, more than a head taller than Qiao Ying. He held out a black gold business card clipped between his slender fingers: "Miss Qiao, if you need any help, please feel free to contact me."
It was exceptionally difficult to obtain one of Qin Hanyue's business cards.
Qiao Ying looked at the business card for a while, then glanced up at Qin Hanyue and said, "Since it's Mr. Qin's kind intention, I won't decline."
She took the card and turned to enter the hotel.
On the ride back, Qin Yan said: "Young Master, the one in the sports car just now was Young Master Huo Chengdong from the Huo family."
The man in the back seat had his fingers interlocked and his eyes closed, resting. After a long pause, Qin Yan finally heard the man slowly reply: "Hmm."
Qin Yan wanted to say something more, but seeing that the man in the rearview mirror had his eyes closed tightly, he had to swallow back all the doubts and curiosity in his belly.
The next morning, Qiao Ying boarded the plane back to Yuncheng.
At the same time in Beijing University—
"Hey, have you heard? That genius mathematician on the forums who is even more amazing than Professor Xu showed up at our school yesterday."
"Really? Where did you hear that? How come I didn't hear anything about it? Is that reliable?"
"Absolutely true. The vice president received them in person, and soon the president came over too, he was so excited."
"I heard that the mystery forum user was found, and it's a pretty girl! The key point is, she's only in high school!"
"High school? Damn, that's too amazing!"
"And I heard she only took two months to solve the problem that had plagued Professor Xu for half a year."
"Shouldn't the TV stations come interview her?"
"Anyway, our school's press club already went!"
"As expected, outstanding people excel in every aspect."
"Still in high school, still a pretty girl. My god, is my Professor Xu going to be snatched away? No!"
At this time, in an elegant and quiet cafe on campus, Xu Zhiyi, who rarely left his lab, was leisurely sitting here drinking coffee.
And the girl sitting across from Xu Zhiyi had a melon seed face, a small upturned nose, long black hair, and was dressed in a white dress. This lady-like outfit concealed quite well the innate sharpness in the corners of the girl's eyes.
The girl was Qiao Lingling.
"The draft really can't be found?" Xu Zhiyi asked Qiao Lingling to confirm again unwillingly.
Qiao Lingling shook her head: "Sorry, there were too many drafts piled up at home taking up space so I threw them all away."
"I have an unreasonable request. Since you've already been admitted to Peking University and don't need to take the college entrance exam, can you stay and rewrite a detailed solution process using your problem-solving approach? The school needs it to teach students, and I need it very much too."
Qiao Lingling looked troubled, and indeed was troubled: "Let me think about it, the workload is too big. It took me a full two months to solve this problem, it really exhausted me. Don't laugh at me Professor Xu, but now when I see this question I have an adverse physiological reaction."
Qiao Lingling, who had just obtained her guaranteed admission to Peking University yesterday as a future student, now addressed Xu Zhiyi as Professor Xu.
Xu Zhiyi: "I understand, I'll wait for your reply."
Qiao Lingling secretly breathed a sigh of relief and looked for topics to chat with Xu Zhiyi about.
"Does Professor Xu have any hobbies or interests?"
"I'm only interested in mathematics. Other than eating and sleeping, I spend most of my time in the lab."
"Isn't that very dull and tiring?"
"How could it be, I like mathematics." Xu Zhiyi then asked in return: "Do you find mathematics dull and boring?"
Qiao Lingling quickly said: "Of course not, I love math just like you, Professor Xu."
"Professor Xu, do you have a gir..." Qiao Lingling looked at Xu Zhiyi's handsome face, her heart thumping rapidly, blushing shyly.
Just as she was about to ask what was on her mind.
Xu Zhiyi opposite her finished his coffee in two gulps and said, "I have a question that I haven't been able to find a better solution for yet. Could you help me take a look?"
"Me?" Qiao Lingling was startled.
"Yes, you're better than me, you must have a better approach to solving it. Would that be convenient?"
"I..." Qiao Lingling, feeling guilty with a thief's heart, was stunned for a moment.
How could she possibly be better than Xu Zhiyi? Qiao Lingling was well aware of how she obtained her guaranteed admission to Peking University, how she came to have the reputation for being a mathematical genius even more amazing than Xu Zhiyi, and how she was able to sit here drinking coffee with the Xu Zhiyi she admired and loved. Qiao Lingling gulped guiltily, somewhat flustered.
She anxiously tried to think of a suitable excuse.
"Is it inconvenient?" Xu Zhiyi asked.
"No, it's not inconvenient, it's just..."
Before Qiao Lingling could find an excuse, the server carrying a tray accidentally tripped next to her, spilling orange juice all over her.
Qiao Lingling screamed as she stood up, looking at her ruined white dress, she was furious: "You..." She was about to curse loudly.
Xu Zhiyi: "Are you okay?"
Xu Zhiyi's voice made Qiao Lingling shut her mouth in time.
She immediately put back on that gentle and considerate expression, and said to the server who kept apologizing and using napkins to wipe her: "I'm fine, how about you, didn't trip did you?"
"I'm really sorry, it wasn't on purpose, how much was the dress, I'll compensate you." The server kept apologizing.
"Compensate? Can a shabby server like you afford it?" Qiao Lingling yelled viciously in her heart, but said graciously and magnanimously on the surface: "It's fine, don't worry, I can just wash it when I get back."
After this commotion, Xu Zhiyi couldn't ask Qiao Lingling for help either. Distressed about her dress, Qiao Lingling secretly rejoiced that she had dodged this bullet.
As soon as she returned to the hotel, Qiao Lingling frantically washed the dress, but no matter how she washed it, she couldn't wash away the stains. She was so angry that she threw the dress in the trash can.
Li Lilian was heartbroken and crying tears of blood.
Yesterday, as soon as they got off the train, the two went to the shopping mall first.
In order for her daughter to look presentable, Li Lilian had spent a lot of money to buy this dress, a whole 1,800 yuan.
And it was only worn for one day.
Li Lilian picked up the dress and swore angrily.
-
"Where's my notebook?"
Qiao Yi was looking for his notebook, but couldn't find it no matter what. He would never have thought that his notebook had been stolen away to Beijing by Qiao Lingling.
Just then the door opened and it was Qiao Ying, who had been to Beijing for two days.
"Sis, you're back!" Qiao Yi said happily surprised.
