There’s not a single cloud in the sky. If it were raining, everyone holding their umbrellas would—”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Zhou: “Don’t change the subject, where were you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Wenxuan coughed and said, “The train was late, then there was a traffic jam...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You took the train this morning?” Lu Zhou said, “You just couldn’t come to Shanghai a day early? Did you have to wait until the last minute?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Wenxuan awkwardly scratched his head and said, “Um... I didn’t miss out on anything important, right?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Zhou smiled and said, “Nothing important.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Wenxuan patted his chest and sighed in relief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh, thank god!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thank god my as*!” Lu Zhou said, “There’s a press conference at two in the afternoon, and I want you to speak there. Go speak with the PR team, learn what you can say and cannot say to the public.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Luo Wenxuan heard about the press conference, he jumped up like a bunny and said, “Wait a second! Why am I speaking at the press conference, I’m not—”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Zhou: “Shut up, you should have come here yesterday. You missed out on the department meeting and was late for the unveiling ceremony. This is your punishment.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No, please,” Luo Wenxuan said. “Please forgive me, those reporters are monsters...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Zhou smiled and said, “I can’t, you have to do it. Also, you’re part of the reason for the ILHCRC, and you have a good understanding of the Lunar Hadron Collider design. I’m sure you can answer some questions. Think of it as a chance to brag.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Wenxuan said, “What do you mean brag... How about I do the report for your next big research paper. Also, how am I part of the reason for the ILHCRC? It’s not like CERN is begging to work with me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Enough,” Lu Zhou said. “If you can’t do this tiny press conference, why would I let you give a report on my research result?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Zhou walked up and patted him on the shoulder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You got this!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Just think of it as a public speaking exercise!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For some reason, Luo Wenxuan felt like there was something troublesome waiting for him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This seems a little suspicious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s not like I can ask him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a while, he sighed and patted Lu Zhou’s hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Okay then.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I guess I have to do it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ll go prepare.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Zhou: “...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Motherf*cker, why do I want to punch this guy in the face?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’m training him to be my successor, yet he’s making it seems like I’m torturing him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He should be thankful!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Maybe I should get a backup to replace him...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shanghai international airport.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Professor Krugman walked through the crowd with a suitcase in his hand and a hat on his head. He handed his suitcase to the PhD student next to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wisl, carry this for me!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wisl took the suitcase and spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Okay, professor!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Professor Angus looked at the crowded airport lobby and said to Krugman, “Jesus, there’s so many people here! It wasn’t like this ten years ago.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>People of all races were crowded inside the airport.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Professor Angus felt like he was in New York.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Professor Krugman smiled and spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“My friend, the world is constantly changing. If you stay in Princeton for the rest of your life, the world is going to leave you behind... Wisl, how about you be a gentleman and carry the lady’s luggage?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wisl looked at the professor; he was speechless. He quietly went over and tried to grab Xiao Tong’s suitcase.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Tong held on tight to her suitcase and awkwardly spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“... I can carry it myself.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though Xiao Tong euphemistically refused Wisl’s offer, Wisl still had an angry look on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This old man is using me as a slave!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I knew this was going to happen, but this is so humiliating!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, his anger quickly disappeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he thought about being able to attend an academic conference with a Nobel Prize laureate and being able to meet the big names of the industry, his anger soon dissipated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is nothing!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This will benefit me in the future!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wisl was no longer jealous of his supervisor’s bias toward the new Chinese student. He even felt his shoulders becoming stronger...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I got this!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Tong didn’t notice Wisl’s emotions. Instead, she was too busy being confused about Professor Krugman’s actions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Are all Princeton professors this kind?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t like this when I was in Oxford...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“... By the way, Xiao Tong, aren’t you going to call your family and tell them you’ve arrived safely?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Tong replied, “I just called them a few days ago...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Professor Krugman said in a serious manner, “I know, but you flew again, right? It was a twenty-hour flight! Your family must be worried.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Tong: “...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They won’t be worried if I don’t tell them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Tong didn’t know what to say.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ll call them at the hotel...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Professor Krugman smiled and said, “Okay! Call them at the hotel... Don’t forget.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Tong nodded awkwardly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Okay...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There’s no way I’m calling them. I’m not telling them I’m in Shanghai again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If my brother knew that I went all the way to Princeton for a whole two days then came back, he would laugh his as* off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Tong felt a little weird about Professor Krugman’s actions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Too bad my brother is in Jinling. He won’t be able to see him...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Tong shook her head and walked next to her supervisor.
