Super God-Level Top Student

As soon as Qiao Ze began to describe the project he wanted to study, Li Jiangao realized that this kid was seriously planning to tackle the Yang-Mills equations and officially start addressing the mass gap problem that had troubled countless mathematicians and quantum physicists.

And he, Li Jiangao, Qiao Ze's mentor in name only, hadn't even completed the initial accumulation of knowledge.

Oh, the shame!

For a moment, he couldn't even bother with the looks he was receiving from Xu Dajiang; he quickly pulled out his cellphone, found Tan Jingrong, and sent a message: "Starting today, I'm reading the hundred papers Qiao Ze prepared for me. I need to highlight the key proofs in the papers based on the abstracts, as soon as possible!"

After sending the message, he finally felt a bit more at ease.

He had initially thought about relaxing this summer, perhaps even finding a girlfriend, but now it seemed he should forget about it.

He didn't deserve it.

...

The car fell quiet after this little episode.

It seemed like everyone suddenly lost the desire to talk.

Including Su Mucheng.

Thinking that she was about to meet Qiao Ze's mother, the girl was somewhat nervous and unsure of what to say, so they quietly reached the high-speed train station.

While waiting, Li Jiangao was pulled aside by Zhuo Wenyu for a private chat. Your next journey awaits at empire

Xu Dajiang was whispering with Zheng Luhua.

It wasn't until Yu Chenggong's train, which he had messaged about earlier, arrived at the station that everyone became serious.

Five minutes later, when they saw Yu Chenggong, laden with large and small bags, coming out of the station, Zhuo Wenyu was the first to raise his hand and call out, "Yu, over here..."

"Hi, Director Zhuo, Lu, over here, let me intro... uh... President Zheng? Dean Xu? You all came..."

Yu Chenggong was still stunned by the impressive gathering in front of him when Su Mucheng, sensitive to the situation, already noticed the middle-aged woman beside Yu Chenggong was Qiao Ze's mother and decisively took Qiao Ze by the hand to meet her.

"Mom," Qiao Ze greeted as usual.

"Ah, Ze, let me have a look at you. Hmm, Yu was right, you did gain some weight... Eh... this is..." After the joy of reunion, Lu Xiuxiu noticed the pretty and slender young girl standing beside her son and was momentarily taken aback.

"Auntie Lu, hello, I'm Qiao Ze's girlfriend, my name is Su Mucheng. Qiao Ze probably hasn't mentioned me to you, right?"

"Ah? Girlfriend? This... Look, Su, Qiao Ze is reserved and doesn't like to talk about his personal life. I haven't heard him mention you, and you've caught me so off guard that I didn't bring you any gifts..."

Lu Xiuxiu was overwhelmed with surprise and instinctively took Su Mucheng's hand.

Indeed, she had always thought that with Qiao Ze's reserved nature, no girl would truly like her son in this lifetime. Yet, to her amazement, just over a month since he'd arrived, he had managed to get a girlfriend without a word, and such a charming girl at that. Could it be that under Professor Li's guidance, Qiao Ze had become more enlightened?

In that moment, Lu Xiuxiu felt as if she was dreaming, holding onto Su Mucheng's hand without wanting to let go, fearing that once she did, the girl would "whoosh" disappear!

"Auntie Lu, you don't need to bring gifts. The fact that you've raised Qiao Ze so well, to me, is already the best gift in the world!" Su Mucheng, always good at cheering people up, blurted out without thinking.

These words suddenly brought tears to Lu Xiuxiu's eyes...

Qiao Ze stepped forward, gently hugged Lu Xiuxiu, let go, then turned his head and glanced at Yu Chenggong, who had just set down his bags, nodded slightly, and then spoke in a slightly louder voice than usual, "Yu, thank you."

"Haha, what's there to thank? It was all in passing," Yu Chenggong laughed in response, but what he didn't expect was Qiao Ze's abrupt statement, "If there's anything you need help with, give me a call."

Honestly, the way Qiao Ze uttered those words was as bland and straightforward as plain water, yet loud enough for all those around to hear clearly.

Yu Chenggong was taken aback, then realized that the gazes of all the leaders behind Qiao Ze, who were waiting to step forward and interact with Lu Xiuxiu, had turned to him. He immediately caught on and hurriedly responded with a beaming smile, "Haha, okay, I'll thank you in advance then, Qiao Ze."

"Alright, alright, let's not stand on ceremony. Auntie Lu, I am the dean of the Westwood University of Technology Mathematics Institute and also Qiao Ze's teacher. My name is Xu Dajiang. I'll introduce you to a few leaders here; they all specially came to welcome you..."

"Ah?"
