Chapter 483: This is the Legendary Three-No Project
Saturday rained all day, until evening when the clouds opened and the rain stopped, revealing a trend of clearing up. The asphalt road puddles reflected lights and tree shadows, and every step on them would splash fine light spots, which would disappear into the twilight in an instant.
In the apartment, Song Yao was watching Friends with the cats, while Xu Qingzhou was eating melons on the forum himself. Seeing everyone recognize Carson, he was also quite curious and searched for information about Carson.
2 minutes passed.
Xu Qingzhou's expression was strange; he summarized two points from various entries.
First, this guy is a genius in the physics department and is somewhat famous at MIT.
Second, he streaked.
Of course, Carson is more known for the second point.
This guy made a bet with his girlfriend over a problem, lost, and streaked through two streets.
Comparing this, he and Song Yao are simply not too normal.
Xu Qingzhou clicked his tongue, sighing in his heart: I didn't expect Carson to have such glorious deeds before. Thinking carefully, from this guy's middle-school-syndrome personality, it's not impossible to do such a thing.
Amidst the sighing, he found that after more than ten minutes of searching, Sun Simin and Ma Ma Ersi' identities seemed to be exposed.
An insider spoke: "If I'm not as old and dim-sighted as my grandmother, these two people are my undergraduate classmates."
"Buddy, today doesn't seem to be April Fool's Day, no need to joke."
"That's right, Sun Simin, Ma Ma Ersi, sophomore undergraduates in the math department."
"What?"
"Two undergraduates, and sophomores at that?"
"That's right, that's right, just now I suspected I read it wrong, these two people are my classmates, by the way, I'm a sophomore this year."
"Okay, I can only say this team list is more outrageous than Croatia entering the final in 2018!"
"No, no, no, at least Croatia had Modric, and they only have a car mechanic and an internet celebrity... in short, completely unreliable."
"Too crazy."
"Please allow me to calm down, is this normal? Am I crazy, or is this world crazy?"
"I bet fifty cents that their experiment will explode into a rainbow pony!"
"If this project can succeed, I will immediately believe that the 2018 Cavaliers being swept by the Warriors was a script."
"I'm more curious, why doesn't he do math research? If so, as long as he waves his hand, he definitely won't have to worry about funding!"
The comment section exploded completely, and the news spread rapidly.
Xu Qingzhou's team list became famous at MIT and became a hot topic of discussion.
Math professor running off to do condensed matter.
No funding support, Xu Qingzhou pays out of his own pocket.
The team is still the kind that is pieced together.
Three-No Project.
The buffs are all stacked.
After eating melons for a few minutes, Xu Qingzhou put down his phone and stopped paying attention to the discussion online, thinking to himself: Too naive, a "cheater" can make up for all gaps.
His gaze fell on Song Yao.
This girl was wearing suspender pajamas, her eyebrows raised when she saw a funny point, sitting half-cross-legged, one calf pressed under her thigh, her fair palms facing Xu Qingzhou.
Although Xu Qingzhou was in a "saint mode," he still couldn't help but grab a handful of her fair legs.
The ending was naturally being tortured by Song Yao on the sofa for a long time.
Half an hour passed.
Leaving Xu Qingzhou with messy hair on the sofa, the school beauty hummed a song and got up to throw the dirty sheets into the washing machine. Looking at the weather forecast at noon, the next day was sunny.
After she came back, she leaned on the sofa and stuffed her feet into Xu Qingzhou's arms.
"You wouldn't be so insane as to put your feet here and then pull me to ravage me again."
Xu Qingzhou looked at the feet in front of him, not daring to act rashly.
Song Yao also came back to her senses; just now it was completely a subconscious action, and she actually quite liked the warmth of Xu Qingzhou touching her feet and the feeling of being wrapped when he pinched them.
Xu Qingzhou looked at Song Yao's expression and immediately understood that it should be a habit problem, not fishing.
The school beauty has a characteristic: the more guilty or shy she is, the more she will pretend to be cold.
Look, she had a cold face, as if nothing had happened, wanting to shrink her feet back, but Xu Qingzhou was quick-eyed and grabbed the tender feet.
Teasing is teasing, but he still has to touch them.
Song Yao curled her lips, her gaze on the TV opposite, complaining in her heart: "Lustful ghost, mouth says no but body is honest. But also easy to handle, after all, he can be happy just by touching a leg."
Xu Qingzhou thought of the scene of being pinned on the sofa just now and couldn't help but ask: "Is there a difference between you putting them over and me touching them myself?"
"Yes."
Xu Qingzhou understood Song Yao's thoughts: I can give, but you can't ask for it.
This girl had already grasped his routine.
Today she dares to go to the roof, tomorrow she dares to uncover the tiles, testing the bottom line bit by bit, and then doing some stimulating things.
He didn't struggle with the problem anymore; anyway, there are still decades to go, take it slow.
"Young girl, don't move your hands at every turn. Look, now you are happy, and I am happy. Don't look at me like that, you were the one who gave me your feet first."
Song Yao couldn't beat Xu Qingzhou, so she could only resort to force.
Xu Qingzhou was honest, curled up on the sofa and watched TV with Song Yao, saying that if it's a rest, it's a rest.
However, after 10 minutes, Professor Roberts called.
The old professor's voice came from the receiver: "Xu, please don't tell me the rumors about the team you formed are true."
"If it's the rumor about two undergraduates, then it should be true."
Xu Qingzhou's fingers slid over her delicate calves, nodding helplessly; he had guessed that Professor Roberts would call to talk about this.
"Do you want to reconsider? Forming a team is already a headache, no need to be too anxious."
Even Professor Roberts was doubting whether Xu Qingzhou was giving up on himself.
This project was already difficult, and now there were two more undergraduates, isn't that creating difficulty for himself?
"I'll help you find some suitable candidates again..."
Professor Roberts said in a deep voice.
Xu Qingzhou said: "Thank you, Professor, now the personnel... are quite suitable, everything is suitable, including the salary."
Carson's salary remains the same, as for Sun Simin and Ma Ma Ersi, it was lowered, an annual salary of 30,000 US dollars, which is already a considerable income for undergraduates.
It really saved a lot of money.
The two chatted for a few words and hung up.
In a villa in Boston.
The old man sipped whiskey and looked at Professor Roberts.
"So?"
"Facts prove that there is no need for me, an old man, to worry."
Professor Roberts sighed helplessly.
On the weekend, he invited an old friend to be a guest at home, wanting his old friend to recommend a few members in the physics field for Xu Qingzhou.
Although he also felt that Xu Qingzhou's experimental field span was too large this time, he was his student after all, and he should help when he should help, but just after inviting his old friend out, Xu Qingzhou had already formed his team.
It's just that the lineup is a bit strange.
"Young people, their personalities are inevitably a bit stubborn... However, they are bolder than we were back then."
"Maybe."
