At ho.
Liu Jing and Zhao Zhenxi had both arrived in the capital and had been living there for a few days, the family of three celebrating the New Year together in the capital.
Lin Xiaoqing had gone back to Zhengyang for the holiday and would only return to the capital after the New Year.
Over the past year, Liu Jing’s health had improved significantly because her Rheumatoid Arthritis had not acted up. Zhao Yi, interested, asked, "Mom, is your condition all better?"
"It is!"
Liu Jing joyfully replied, "Last year during the New Year, didn’t you recomnd a new dication to ? After taking it, it has been incredibly effective. I feel like it has been a long ti without even one flare-up."
"That’s great."
Zhao Yi nodded happily and said.
The project related to rheumatic diseases was completed three years ago, and research had discovered the ’rheumatism factor.’ With this newly discovered ’rheumatism factor’ as a breakthrough, a manufacturer developed a specific drug for related diseases.
This drug could inhibit the ’rheumatism factor’ from functioning and, when used in combination with antimicrobial drugs, could effectively treat diseases caused by the ’rheumatism factor.’
Zhao Yi, too, felt incredibly relieved.
When he first applied for university, one of the main reasons he chose the major of biological sciences was seeing his mother suffer from rheumatism.
Now that his research had led to the availability of a specific drug for rheumatism on the market, and his mother’s condition had been effectively controlled and might even be cured, he was delighted.
The family had a happy and harmonious New Year.
In the midst of it, Zhao Yi also brought up his wedding plans with Lin Xiaoqing to his parents. After much discussion, they still hoped Lin Xiaoqing’s family would make the decision.
Although they could decide directly and Lin Xiaoqing’s family would surely not object, out of respect for the bride’s family and considering that Lin Xiaoqing was still in graduate school, they decided it was not appropriate for them to settle on the plans for the wedding.
When Zhao Yi ntioned it during a video call with Lin Xiaoqing, she assured him she would discuss it with her parents. After so deliberation, they reached a decision—
It would be better to discuss it later!
Lin Xiaoqing hoped for a grand wedding. Every girl dreams of being a princess and looks forward to her wedding, wishing for it to be grander and blessed by more people.
However, the situation did not permit it.
If they were to hold a grand wedding, it would certainly take a long ti and would directly affect her studies.
There would definitely be many guests on Zhao Yi’s side; even a smaller wedding seed impossible.
Planning the wedding now would just be too hasty.
"Let’s talk about it later, perhaps after I finish my degree and then wait a while longer..."
Lin Xiaoqing said this with a tinge of heartache.
Zhao Yi could tell Lin Xiaoqing was looking forward to the wedding. He laughed and said, "You don’t need to wait two years, maybe we can do it by the end of the year. We’ll just find the right ti, and I will arrange everything. Then, we just have to show up."
"Really?"
"No problem at all, don’t worry," Zhao Yi said with conviction. "We just need to set a date; right now is too early, maybe later in the year... would be more suitable, I suppose."
He wasn’t sure himself.
It’s not easy to make decisions about such major matters, and Zhao Yi also needed to consider his own schedule. Thus, the wedding plans were tentatively left at that stage.
After the New Year.
The first big event was the National Science and Technology Awards Ceremony.
Zhao Yi attended the ceremony with a calm deanor, receiving the First-class Award of Natural Science once again, this ti for his research on the "NP problem."
Solving one of the seven major mathematical problems of the millennium was a significant event for international mathematics. There was no doubt that proving the "NP problem" deserved the First-class Award of Natural Science.
Zhao Yi just remarked, "The awards committee sure reacts quickly."
The "NP problem" was proven mid-year, and by the end of the year, he had received the award for it—the committee had indeed put in great effort.
Having received the First-class Award of Natural Science for four consecutive years, just how unruffled Zhao Yi felt could easily be imagined. He was just thinking about adding another dal and certificate of honor to his display room.
Others, however, did not see it that way.
Who knows how many people were crazed with envy toward Zhao Yi; for their collective projects, just getting a Natural Science Award was difficult, let alone the first-class one.
The Natural Science Award could be applied for in the na of companies and scientific research institutions, but no matter how many projects were submitted for evaluation, at most they might earn a "second-class award."
A first-class award?
That was not sothing ordinary achievents could aspire to.
Unlike the past three years, this year’s recipient of the First-class Award of Natural Science was not just Zhao Yi; there was also another team that had won the award.
It was a team from the Science Academy’s physical research departnt.
The team led by Academician Zhou Yuming, with their foundational physical research results on ’Multiple Photon Entanglent,’ had won the First-class Award of Natural Science.
In the eyes of others, having two recipients of the First-class Award of Natural Science also represented progress in the country’s foundational theoretical research in basic sciences.
However...
When Zhou Yuming led his team to the stage to receive the award, they did not show any excitent for their achievent; instead, they were visibly embarrassed.
Their team included four academicians and two professors in physics. They had worked together on the research into ’Multiple Photon Entanglent’ and had jointly won the First-class Award of Natural Science.
Over there, there was just Zhao Yi alone.
The situation on stage could be well imagined; on one side stood a whole row of people, and on the other side stood Zhao Yi alone. He seed ’lonely,’ but in reality, the attention of the vast majority was on Zhao Yi, and the mbers of Zhou Yuming’s team beca ’background walls’ after receiving their awards.
The cara lens made things clear.
Zhou Yuming’s team, with several mbers, only got one shot. After a brief horizontal capture, the cara stayed fixed on Zhao Yi.
