Chapter 1958 Life is So Long
After Professor You finished telling Shen Xi about Cai Bao's antics in class, Shen Xi laughed so hard she couldn't stand up straight.
A renowned professor, a top expert and doctoral supervisor ranked among the best in the country, was tricked like this by a three-year-old girl.
Professor You shook his head helplessly: "I don't know how your daughter's little brain is formed, how can she have so many strange and bizarre ideas?"
There were some things he had never even considered, but when Caibao asked him about them today, he was completely taken aback. And then, upon reflection, he realized that they were indeed true.
Professor You asked Shen Xi, "I think Caibao is quite interested in history and culture. Why don't we cultivate her in this area in the future, and have her apply to our university so she can follow me from undergraduate to doctoral studies, a one-stop service?"
Shen Xi: ...
What an amazing dragon! Professor, aren't you a little too eager to snatch up a student? She's still a kindergarten kid; she can't even read many words.
Professor You disagreed.
"So what? We should start cultivating interests and hobbies from a young age. Nowadays, kids either want to be stars or internet celebrities. There are almost no kids who want to be scientists or historians. I've finally found a good prospect, so of course I want to try to get him as soon as possible."
This kid is something else; his perspective on problems is both unconventional and unique, and he can even inspire others. At least, after attending just one class, he has an idea for the topic of his next paper.
He likes the child.
"How about you send your daughter to me? I'll give her some early childhood education classes every week. If she has to go to school during the week, weekends are fine too."
Very well, it was Shen Xi who fled in disarray.
Professor, aren't you afraid that after learning from you for a few days, Caibao will steal all the treasures from your house?
Besides, everyone who teaches Caibao thinks she's a good candidate for their line of work.
Chen Ying also said that Cai Bao is a rare mathematical genius, saying that she has a very sharp mathematical mind and suggested that she not waste time in kindergarten, but start directly from elementary school and then skip grades all the way, so that she might be able to enter university several years earlier.
Chen Chuan immediately rejected the idea.
Why skip grades? Are we in such a rush in life? Wouldn't it be better to study at our own pace, make more friends, and enjoy our childhood?
Every stage of growth in life is precious. Their family is not lacking in geniuses, and even more so in geniuses who skip grades.
Chen Chuan hopes that his daughter can live her life at a leisurely pace, enjoying everything she should and experiencing everything she should.
Chen Ying disagreed.
"You're wasting a treasure's talent. She could have had a bright future and made many contributions to human society..."
She went on and on, expressing her deep regret and indignation, as if Chen Chuan's refusal to let Caibao skip grades made him an enemy of humanity and a social scumbag.
Then, Chen Chuan said, "Oh, she's my daughter."
One sentence made Chen Ying feel a tightness in her chest.
"If you love nurturing geniuses so much, why don't you have one yourself?"
Alright, Chen Ying is dead.
But Shen Xi felt that her willingness to go to Long Province this time probably meant that she hadn't given up on her idea of properly nurturing Caibao.
While Chen Chuan, who was holding her back, was away, she spent every day with Cai Bao and gave him a good brainwashing.
If Caibao wants to improve herself, Chen Chuan, who respects his daughter so much, should be able to compromise, right?
Well, she didn't know that Caibao planned to stay in kindergarten for the rest of her life and didn't even want to go to primary school.
If they knew, they'd probably be furious.
With Caibao's silver tongue, it's uncertain who will ultimately brainwash whom.
Just thinking about this scene made Shen Xi feel a little excited.
This afternoon, after class five or six, Professor You stopped her and asked if she had considered letting Caibao undergo the baptism of history. Shen Xi was so frightened that she ran away immediately.
As soon as she ran out of the teaching building with her teaching aids, she saw Chen Chuan standing under a tree, smiling at her.
His jet-black hair, handsome features, and tall stature made men and women passing by involuntarily turn their eyes to him.
He was the only man Shen Xi had ever seen who could make even an ordinary T-shirt look so good.
Sometimes looks really do determine everything. With Chen Chuan's face and physique, even if you draped a burlap sack over him, he would still exude that kind of reckless, international model-like handsomeness.
Seriously, how can it be so beautiful?
Chen Chuan slowly walked over and winked at her: "Teacher Shen, if you keep looking, you'll start drooling."
She smiled and said, "Then you can wipe it for me."
Haha, he reached out and pinched her chin, asking, "Going home?"
"I need to go back to my office to get something."
Do you want me to come with you?
"What do you say?"
"Let's go."
She smiled and took his arm, and the two walked towards the office building.
What should we eat tonight?
"I'm planning to make boiled beef in chili oil and stir-fried chicken with vinegar sauce, what do you think?"
"These are all dishes I like. What about you?"
"Don't worry, I won't treat myself badly; I'll make a stir-fried razor clam with chives."
Shen Xi raised an eyebrow at him: "Oh, Mr. Chen, after a few nights of fighting, you're already done?"
"There's nothing I can do, my wife is too greedy."
She pinched his waist angrily: "It's clearly because you're too greedy! I told you last night that I couldn't take it anymore..."
She stopped abruptly as soon as she spoke, then pinched the soft flesh of his waist even harder.
"Chen Chuan, you bastard! In broad daylight, right here at school, you're spouting this nonsense. If the students hear you, how am I supposed to maintain my authority as a teacher?"
He laughed and dodged her hand. "I didn't say anything, but you said everything."
"Fine, he's gotten too bold." Shen Xi didn't waste any more words with him and took direct action.
"Hey, you still dare to hide."
Having missed with his first attempt, Shen Xi was unconvinced and reached out again.
She insisted on being stubborn, but he dodged very nimbly. The couple walked and joked, and although their movements were not big, their good looks were so outstanding that they shone wherever they went, naturally attracting the attention of passersby.
This is a small path leading from the teaching building to the teachers' offices. Students rarely use it; most people who pass by are colleagues. Seeing that the couple has a harmonious relationship, most people smile and walk past them.
However, there are also those who disagree.
"Wow, Mr. Shen, you and your husband have such a good relationship. They're bickering and playing around on campus in broad daylight. We're all envious when we see it."
A female teacher wearing black-rimmed glasses and with a slightly harsh expression suddenly spoke as she passed by.
Shen Xi's hand had just grasped Chen Chuan's soft flesh when she heard these words.
She turned around and saw that it was Wang Wenfang, a history professor. They were just acquaintances, not close friends.
I don't know why she suddenly started this.
But since others had already spoken so bluntly, Shen Xi wasn't one to swallow her pride. She replied with a smile, "Teacher Wang, it's fine to be envious, but don't be jealous."
