Protagonist:

Li Xiulan

Wan Zhiyuan was in the laboratory, doing experiments with a black face.

Wang Xiaohua hadn't returned to the dormitory last night, which made him very unhappy.

Yesterday he had said so much to Wang Xiaohua, hoping Wang Xiaohua could sever his emotional ties and focus all his energy on experimental research, but who would have thought that just as he left with his front foot, Wang Xiaohua went to find Li Jianjia with his back foot.

This was equivalent to those words he said to Wang Xiaohua being treated by Wang Xiaohua as wind in the ears.

Wan Zhiyuan felt this was Wang Xiaohua's disrespect toward him.

So now he was very angry.

He called Wang Xiaohua to the laboratory this time, but his actual purpose was not to have Wang Xiaohua help with experiments; rather, it was to scold Wang Xiaohua again.

How could this person be so pig-brained? So many people want laboratory resources but can't get them, and he, Wan Zhiyuan, kindly gave them to Wang Xiaohua, yet Wang Xiaohua doesn't know how to cherish them at all!

Just then, Wang Xiaohua came over with Li Jianjia.

"Zhiyuan, I'm here."

Wan Zhiyuan was about to speak, but when he looked up, he found Wang Xiaohua had actually brought Li Jianjia along, and his throat immediately got stuck, not knowing what to say for a moment.

The anger in his heart grew even greater.

However, even if he was low in emotional intelligence and blunt in speech, he couldn't possibly scold Wang Xiaohua in front of Li Jianjia, because if he really did that, he and Wang Xiaohua probably couldn't even remain friends.

So he swallowed his anger in his heart, kept a black face, and said nothing.

"Zhiyuan, let me introduce you to my girlfriend, Li Jianjia, from Guangwai." Wang Xiaohua enthusiastically made the introduction, then turned to Li Jianjia and said:

"Jianjia, this is the genius youth Wan Zhiyuan I told you about. He's two years younger than me and got into Tsinghua University through competitions. He's really impressive!"

"Student Wan Zhiyuan, nice to meet you, nice to meet you!"

Li Jianjia reached out her hand and took the initiative to shake hands with Wan Zhiyuan.

Wan Zhiyuan said, "I'm sorry, I'm doing an experiment, so I can't shake hands with you."

Li Jianjia gave an embarrassed laugh:

"It's fine, you go ahead and do your experiment. I'm just here to look around and won't disturb your work."

At this moment, Wan Zhiyuan looked at Wang Xiaohua with a black face:

"Hurry up and go wash your hands and put on a lab coat. Today's experiment is very important, and we must get precise experimental data."

"Okay, okay, I'm going right now."

Wang Xiaohua put on a lab coat and came out, following Wan Zhiyuan to do the experiment.

It was said he was following to do the experiment, but actually he was just giving Wan Zhiyuan a hand.

Li Jianjia, standing to the side, looked left and right in the laboratory, her face full of curiosity.

She just looked and didn't dare to touch anything.

Because she knew some things in the chemistry laboratory were very dangerous.

If she accidentally caused an explosion or fire, that would be a big deal.

After looking enough and feeling a bit bored, she took the initiative to say to Wang Xiaohua:

"Xiao Hua, I'll go outside for a walk. You and your classmate finish the experiment, then call me."

"Okay, okay, don't go too far. I'll come find you as soon as I finish the experiment!"

After Li Jianjia left, only Wang Xiaohua and Wan Zhiyuan remained in the laboratory, and Wan Zhiyuan finally no longer had any scruples.

He directly spoke with a cold laugh:

"Hehe, Wang Xiaohua, you didn't listen to a single word of what I said to you yesterday."

Wang Xiaohua gave an embarrassed laugh:

"Zhiyuan, I know you mean well, but I'm sorry, I really can't lose Jianjia. However, don't worry, I'll try my best to balance love and studies."

Wan Zhiyuan, however, sneered:

"With your IQ, you can balance them? I'm afraid that by then your grades will plummet, and you'll even lose the qualification for recommended admission for graduate study. You worked so hard just to get a 4.0 GPA. You wouldn't think that once you slack off, you can still get a 4.0 GPA, would you?"

Wang Xiaohua was speechless for a moment.

Wan Zhiyuan's words were harsh, but they were also the truth.

Wan Zhiyuan continued:

"Do whatever you want, I can't control you. But let me put my ugly words up front: if you affect my experiment progress, I'll find other students to help me with experiments, and from now on, don't come to my laboratory anymore."

Wang Xiaohua furrowed his brow:

"Zhiyuan, if you really don't want me to come, I can quit. I really don't understand. Wei Qian and Yun Shu are dating, and you say nothing. But when I date Jianjia, you have such big objections?"

"Because Wei Qian doesn't come to my laboratory; whether he lives or dies has nothing to do with me. But you, Wang Xiaohua, it was you who begged me bitterly to bring you to do experiments at the beginning. And to fight for this quota for you, I had my parents pull strings a lot. Do you know how high the hidden costs here are? These costs cannot be measured by money! And now you, because of a romance that was destined to have no result from the start, want to give up all this. Have you got water in your brain! But this isn't your fault either. You're a small-town exam-taker, naturally without ambition, naturally without insight. Being short-sighted is normal. I shouldn't have let you come in the first place!"

Wan Zhiyuan got angrier the more he spoke.

At the beginning, to be able to bring Wang Xiaohua along, he indeed paid a lot.

And these payments were things Wang Xiaohua couldn't see.

Wang Xiaohua still thought that as long as Wan Zhiyuan agreed, he could come along to do experiments.

But actually it wasn't that simple.

The chemistry laboratory wasn't something every student could easily use. Especially doing experiments independently, you not only needed the school leaders to recognize your ability, but also had to apply and get approval.

Wan Zhiyuan was so angry because he felt heartache for his experiment.

If an experiment was halfway done and someone was changed, they'd have to find someone new, and they might not even find a suitable person.

And it pained him even more that Xiao Hua had fallen into decadence.

He knew well how wonderful love was, and he knew well what words would offend people and what words showed high emotional intelligence.

With his kind of intelligence, he could see everything clearly.

He simply did not want to do it that way.

He truly cared for Xiao Hua and sympathized with Xiao Hua, which was why he spoke so directly.

Of the four roommates, Xiao Hua had the worst family conditions.

Wei Qian had entered through the college entrance exam, but he was from the city and had some family assets; as long as he got a graduation certificate, his future life would surely not be bad.

Wen Lingyun needed no further mention—she lived near Beijing Second Ring Road, had grown up with a silver spoon in her mouth, and even if she did not pursue academic research, she could return to inherit the vast family business.

Only Xiao Hua was of pure rural origin.

With no support behind him, he had to clear thorns and cut through brambles on his own road in life.

The slightest slackening, and he might sink into obscurity among the crowd.

Under such conditions, how could he have the mind to talk about love? How could he lack a sense of crisis and urgency?

Anyway, if it were Wan Zhiyuan in Xiao Hua's position, he would absolutely strive ten times harder than he did now.

As for talking about love, go to hell!

Wan Zhiyuan continued to scold Xiao Hua:

"You wouldn't think that your love affair and Wei Qian's love affair would have the same result, would you? What family assets do you have, what family assets does he have, do you deserve to be compared with him?"

Xiao Hua felt very uncomfortable being scolded by Wan Zhiyuan like this.

But he did not blame Wan Zhiyuan, because he knew that everything Wan Zhiyuan said was the truth.
