Chapter 47: Study in advance! Studying truly makes me happy!

Really, won't you buy a bit more? This amount is enough.

My son is so handsome, shouldn't he tidy up and dress himself a bit? With just these clothes, how am I going to trick a few daughters-in-law into coming back to me?

The principal of Harbin Institute of Technology has already come in person and offered such favorable conditions, so Li Mingyang naturally wouldn't be clueless.

His parents are the same; although they know Harbin Institute of Technology's reputation definitely can't compare to those two schools in Jingcheng.

But it also depends on what kind of treatment it is, right?

This is because as soon as you enroll, you have an academician as a teacher, and they also offer this series of favorable conditions—something those two universities definitely couldn't offer.

Compared to the two, choosing is undoubtedly very easy.

Besides, Harbin Institute of Technology isn't bad either, right? At least in engineering, it's top-notch domestically, and what the son likes isn't engineering?

So, regarding the son's decision to attend Harbin Institute of Technology, the old couple didn't have any objections.

After all, you can't just have an academician as a teacher anywhere, nor can you get such favorable learning conditions anywhere.

They, the elderly, believe that compared to going to those two top domestic universities, Li Mingyang studying at Harbin Institute of Technology should have a brighter future.

Enough, enough, Mom—I'm going to school to study, not to fall in love.

How many people in the whole country can have an academician as a teacher? I've finally got this opportunity, so I must seize it.

Shouldn't I perform well at school? Besides, President Zheng said earlier that as long as my level is sufficient, I can graduate anytime.

Compared to wasting time on meaningless things, I'd rather learn as quickly as possible and get my three diplomas as soon as possible.

By then, your son will be a doctor who graduated from Harbin Institute of Technology, and moreover, a doctor under an academician.

Its value shouldn't need me, your son, to elaborate further—by then, what kind of daughter-in-law couldn't be found? You'd agree, right?

In a large mall in Liangcheng, Li Mingyang, with a helpless expression, was tugging with his mother.

I don't know what's going on, but my mother's shopping desire today is off the charts; back in high school, she didn't allow me to dress too flamboyantly.

She was afraid I'd accidentally be picked up by some girl, affecting my studies—although back then I really had no mind for studying anyway.

But I've just graduated high school, and college hasn't even started yet—my attitude shouldn't have changed this fast!

Originally we agreed that today we'd just buy a phone, plus a computer, and casually get two sets of clothes—just as long as they're suitable for college.

But seeing my mother's momentum, she practically wants to buy all my college clothes for four years in one go today.

That money-spending-like-water attitude even left Li Mingyang feeling a bit speechless; I originally thought Dad was already generous enough, but now it seems Mom is the hidden big shot.

Originally I only wanted to buy a notebook computer in the low ten-thousands, as long as the specs were high enough; other things are negotiable, just need to support me doing some simple design tasks in college.

But Mom wouldn't have it; with a wave of her hand, she directly let Li Mingyang keep his 50,000 yuan to spend, and the rest of the expenses would be on her.

Just a computer alone cost nearly 30,000 yuan! The top-spec latest Alienware!

At this point in time, that sum could buy an entry-level car! Although it might be something like an F0 or a QQ little toy.

But after all, it's still a car, right?

Unlike now, where buying a small notebook to put in a backpack is easy to carry, this feeling of spending money like water even left Li Mingyang unable to help but feel dazed.

Could it be that I wasn't reborn, but instead came to a parallel world where my family's conditions are very good?

Then there's the phone—if Li Mingyang hadn't resisted the crowd and rejected Apple, Mom would have had to spend nearly five figures on the latest model.

In the end, Li Mingyang chose a domestic phone, which left Mom somewhat unwilling, feeling as if not spending the money meant something was missing.

I'm being serious—almost enough, Mom. Rather than wasting time on these things, I'd rather use the vacation to get a head start on university courses.

I already told President Zheng that I want to apply for the aircraft design and manufacturing major, and he gave me a special student number.

I can directly find study materials on the school's official website, and there are even online video courses.

Rather than wasting time, I might as well use this time to self-study properly, after all, when school starts, my teacher will be a top domestic academician.

I can't possibly show up clueless, asking three things and knowing none, leaving a bad impression on the teacher right away, can I?

Seeing that Mom seemed not really able to take it in, Li Mingyang had no choice but to unleash his trump card.

Even though I've already graduated high school, my parents' favorite topic remains my studies.

After all, in the eyes of domestic parents, as long as you're in school, your only task is to study well.

Even in college it's the same—just that after entering university, you're not under the parents' watch, so they can't control as much.

As expected, after hearing that, Mom's expression couldn't help but become much more serious:

Alright, I admit what you said makes sense; since that's the case, let's go home.

Anyway, you kid have plenty of money; later, whatever you lack, you can buy it yourself, and you don't have to worry about your living conditions outside.

However, when saying that last sentence, Mom still felt a bit unwilling.

However, Li Mingyang let out a genuine sigh of relief, finally ending this tormenting shopping trip.

Originally, before heading out, I was still quite looking forward to today's shopping plan, after all, many things I've been longing for could be obtained in a day.

But now... compared to this painful shopping, Li Mingyang still feels that studying makes him happier.

After all, what he's studying is aircraft design and manufacturing, which he's most interested in, and all that knowledge is where his interests lie.

So compared to shopping, Li Mingyang feels that studying is truly what makes him happy.
