Super God-Level Top Student

Chapter 104: The Gears of Fate_2



"Alright, I've agreed to your request; now can you give me the results you've achieved?" Hudson stretched out his hand again.

"Here! Remember to hurry, I hope to get the visa to go to Huaxia next month."

"Alright, alright, I know! I'll call them personally for you."

Hudson said impatiently until the documents were in his hands; then he broke into a smile again.

He eagerly opened them, scanned them briefly, and then suddenly realized, "So that's how it is, ha... I'm definitely going to win this time!"

Then he looked at his proud female student.

"Well, Hanna, you know, once you get to Huaxia, you'll have to get used to their series of exams, you know? Huaxia people are best at taking exams. Alright, maybe that's a bit of a stereotype, but no matter what, you have to take care of yourself. Also, if you're disappointed with the place and want to come back early, you know you can call me anytime."

"Of course, Hudson, I'm not a child anymore. I'm going to study Chinese now, waiting for your good news."

"Good, off you go!"

...

Huaxia, Xingcheng, an ordinary neighborhood on an ordinary night.

The parents were sitting in the living room watching TV, while their child sat silently flipping through a smartphone on the side.

Quite suddenly, the child put the smartphone aside and said, "Dad, Mom, I've decided, I want to retake the year."

"What? Shi Wenjie, what did you just say?" The father immediately picked up the remote control, hit the mute button, and then turned to look at the child and asked.

"I said I want to retake the year." The child's voice was lower, but he repeated it firmly.

The parents exchanged glances.

The mother then gently began, "Jie Jie, are you sure? If you decide to retake the year, we will definitely support you, but you're going to be very tired this coming year."

"I know. But Qiao Ze, he's so incredible, I want to try again. Maybe I'm not as smart as him, but I feel like I can do a bit better."

"Oh, because of that Qiao Ze!" The mother realized.

Recently, the name Qiao Ze had been all over the class parents' group.

After all, who would have thought that a student who was not expected to do well in their own child's class would suddenly shine on the international academic stage and become a nationally known figure on the internet in an instant.

But what this mother did not expect was that Qiao Ze had become the main reason her own child wanted to retake the year.

"Fine! Since you're determined, I will go and contact the school tomorrow. However, there is one thing, you opt to retake the year, Dad can support you, but your scores for next year's college entrance examination must at least pass the first-tier line, how about it, do you have confidence?"

"Dad, I have confidence, I will start revising right now."

"Okay, then it's decided, child, go for it!"

Shi Wenjie nodded, then stood up and walked to his room.

His mind already started to psych himself up: It's never too late to start trying. Read new chapters at empire

...

Huaxia, Xilin City.

Like usual, Qiao Ze woke up punctually at six-thirty.

But today, he didn't get out of bed immediately; instead, he lay there thinking quietly for about half an hour before getting up, stepping out of his room, where Lu Xiuxiu had already prepared breakfast of steamed buns and soy milk purchased from the canteen.

Of course, this was understandable, as she had been busy until late the night before and hadn't had time to go to the market.

"You're up, the school has already started the holiday, hasn't it? Qiao Ze, are you busy today? If not, do you want to come with us to buy something?" Lu Xiuxiu, who had just come out of the kitchen, asked.

Qiao Ze thought for a moment and said, "Busy."

"Oh. Okay, then I'll wait for Su. By the way, Su is really nice, what do you think?"

Lu Xiuxiu sat down at the dining table with a cup of water and asked.

"What do I think?" Qiao Ze was somewhat puzzled.

Lu Xiuxiu pursed her lips, having thought her child had become wiser since coming to university, but it seemed she had overestimated him.

"Do you like Su or not? That girl is really nice, pretty, articulate, and caring."

Without responding directly, Qiao Ze first went into the bathroom to wash up. After finishing, he sat back at the dining table and quietly ate his breakfast.

Only after he had eaten his fill did he suddenly say, "I've read some books about love and psychology of love in the school library recently. The way they describe love is so incredible to me. I can't understand why people would lose their basic rational thinking abilities under the influence of endocrine chemicals."

"Being swayed by such trivial emotions is terrifying to me, so I don't know how to answer your question. I can only say I don't dislike her presence, and sure, sometimes she can make me feel happy. At least so far, no other girl has made me feel anything similar."

Qiao Ze's expression was extremely rational and pure, in line with his usual disdain for lying.

Lu Xiuxiu stared at her dear son with a blank look in her eyes.

She had always believed that her child wasn't sick, and if he was, he should be getting better since he started college.

But these words made her doubt her previous optimism.

How does this sound like the illness got worse?

How can he bring up endocrine glands? Chemicals? Rational thinking? Trivial emotions?

Didn't Professor Li say he was studying mathematics?

Are these things that mathematics needs to study?

The next moment, Lu Xiuxiu suddenly became frantic.

"Qiao Ze, let's pretend I didn't ask that. You must not mention any of this nonsense in front of Su, did you hear me? Actually, what I mean is, for instance, when you're older, and at an age to consider marriage, if Su is still willing to be with you, would you be willing to marry her and live with her? Not disliking her means you're willing, right?"

"Oh, I'm stepping out now," Qiao Ze nodded.

"Ah..." Lu Xiuxiu sighed and watched Qiao Ze silently walk out the door. Something seemed to occur to her. She chased to the doorway and said, "By the way, Su said she would come by later to accompany me shopping. Aren't you going to wait for her?"

"We'll bump into each other." Qiao Ze replied.

Lu Xiuxiu knew he definitely omitted the second half of the sentence, "If we don't bump into each other, then so be it."

She could only sigh helplessly.

Everyone told her she needn't worry about her child's future, but with such a son, how could a mother not worry?

...

Qiao Ze was right. Not far from leaving the neighborhood, he saw Su Mucheng's figure.

"HI, Qiao!"

From a distance, Su Mucheng called out cheerfully.

Qiao Ze stood still and nodded.

"Where are you off to so early?" Su Mucheng quickened her pace, came beside Qiao Ze, and looked up to ask.

"Yesterday, Chen Yiwen said that today Zhang Zhou and Gu Zhengliang are leaving the campus, and he asked me to go have a look. Then I'll go to the project team to wait for Li. He's going to teach me how to fill out a project funding application report. After that, I'll start preparing for a new topic," Qiao Ze told Su Mucheng his plans for the day directly.

"Actually, we could do it without the school's money, right?" Su Mucheng pouted and said.

"Equivalent exchange. The school helps Li apply for Jieqing, recommend him for the academy in the future, give Yu a higher starting point, provide a better living environment for my mom, and I do some things to help the school improve its ranking. It's a win-win situation for everyone, and we're both content. Even if we switch platforms, we'll just repeat the above steps.

Unless we become the platform ourselves, but that would be too distracting and not worth the trouble," Qiao Ze explained patiently.

This showed that Lu Xiuxiu's words in the morning had had some effect.

Before today, Qiao Ze wouldn't have bothered explaining so much.

"Right, you're correct," Su Mucheng nodded vigorously.

"Li taught me that. He told me that human energy is limited; by letting professionals do professional tasks, you can get twice the result with half the effort."

"Okay, then you go ahead. I've taken the day off today to go shopping with Aunty."

"Alright, she's waiting for you."

"By the way, is there anything you want?"

Qiao Ze shook his head, then suddenly said, "Won't it be tiring for just the two of you to go shopping?"

With a downcast face, Su Mucheng said, "Yeah, I should have called Chen Yiwen to help with carrying things if you didn't have time."

"No need, Dean Xu is quite free every day. Later, I'll ask if he can help you carry things. He often says that if there's any trouble, you can turn to him," Qiao Ze said.

After hearing this, Su Mucheng paused for two seconds, then blinked her eyes before vigorously nodding and saying, "Qiao, you're absolutely right, Dean Xu is the most free! He definitely has time!"
