“On April 11th, the Arican Chemical Society held an international organic chemistry seminar in San Francisco and unveiled the winner of the Adams Chemistry Prize.
“The award was established to commorate the famous chemist, Roger Adams. Since 1995, the Arican Chemical Society has been giving this award every two years to outstanding scholars in the field of organic chemistry. Among the 29 winners, 11 of them were also winners of the Nobel Prize in Chemistry.
“The winner of this year’s Adams Chemistry Prize is Professor Lu Zhou from Princeton University. He won this award due to his research on the modified PDMS film material which has solved a 30-year-old problem...”
The news was playing on a TV in a cafeteria within the compound of Jin Ling University.
ng Qi had a pair of chopsticks in her hand as she stared at Lu Zhou receiving the dal from an old man.
Her three roommates also noticed the news, but their reactions weren’t as big as ng Qi. They started to discuss among themselves.
Li Fang looked at the TV and said, “Amazing... What an impressive alumnus.”
Luo ng asked, “Speaking of which, he’s the director of the computational materials research institute?”
Su Jiawen: “That’s him. I heard from the leaders of the student union that he is very good. Every ti he cos back to our school, the academicians would welco him with open arms. Oh yeah, ng Qi is an intern at the computational materials research institute, right?”
Li Fang looked at ng Qi and said, “ng Qi, have you seen Lu Zhou in person before?”
Two months ago, the Jinling Institute of Computational Materials recruited interns based on their academic grades.
There weren’t many opportunities for undergrad students to be exposed to scientific research, so this was a good opportunity for students that wanted to stay in academia.
ng Qi was one of the three students that got this internship opportunity.
Han ngqi nodded subconsciously.
“Oh... Yeah, I’ve seen him before.”
Not at the computational materials research institute though...
Li Fang asked curiously, “Then tell us, is he the sa person in real life?”
Han ngqi thought for a mont before she said, “Around the sa... He’s a bit more handso than on TV.”
“Speaking of which, doesn’t he do mathematics?” Luo ng asked while eating, “When did he start doing chemistry?”
Li Fang said, “Yeah... I really don’t understand these geniuses. He’s basically a legend.”
Su Jiawen said, “Only a pretty girl like ngqi can date a guy as talented as God Lu.”
Su Jiawen was only just joking; she didn’t expect ng Qi to take it seriously.
ng Qi instantly blushed.
“What are you talking about...”
ng Qi beca quiet.
She suddenly noticed that her three friends were all staring at her.
Han ngqi asked nervously, “What... are you guys doing?”
Su Jiawen rubbed her chin and said, “I don’t know if you guys noticed, but this is the first ti that ng Qi has blushed over a guy.”
Luo ng nodded and said, “Maybe...”
Li Fang said, “Did you...”
Han ngqi was being questioned by her three roommates, and she panicked.
“No, it’s not what you guys think!”
“There’s nothing wrong with it, it’s just an idol.” Li Fang smiled and said, “Even a genius would admire other geniuses. I support you!”
Han ngqi smiled unnaturally.
“... Thanks.”
ng Qi sighed in relief but couldn’t help but feel a little sad.
Is he an idol?
It seed that in other people’s eyes, Lu Zhou had reached an unattainable level.
However, it wasn’t like she had those dirty thoughts...
Li Fang patted her shoulder and said, “Which part of God Lu do you like?”
Li Fang wasn’t the only one curious, even Luo ng and Su Jiawen were curious as well.
“Don’t get wrong, it’s not that kind of like...” ng Qi said, “It’s more like a brother kind of like.”
Luo ng said, “Brother? He is older than you.”
Su Jiawen said, “ng Qi is an only child, right? Siblings are annoying.”
Han ngqi smiled and said, “No way, I think siblings can’t be that annoying...”
I don’t really feel like I have a family, so maybe it would be better with a brother?
Ever since Han ngqi t Xiao Tong in Philadelphia, she had been thinking about how nice her life would be if she switched places with Xiao Tong.
Deep down, Han ngqi wished that Lu Zhou would date Chen Yushan. She had even tried on nurous occasions to set them up.
Through this way, she could call Lu Zhou her brother...
Girls always changed their topic of conversation quickly, and they soon started to talk about Su Jiawen’s brother instead.
Normally, Han ngqi would chi in.
However, the little girl was thinking about sothing else today.
Just now, Li Fang reminded her of sothing.
Is it a bad thing if Lu Zhou is my idol?
If he’s my idol, I can fantasize about him.
Maybe I should say it...
“Bro, brothe...”
Han ngqi shook her head and clenched her teeth as she stopped herself from saying those shaful words.
In the end, she gave up, and she slamd her forehead on the table.
As expected, this was too difficult for her...
...
After eating, Han ngqi parted ways with her three roommates and went to the computational materials research institute.
Even though her work up until now was trivial, as she rely did stuff like sorting out docunts, she had learned a lot of useful things from this job.
Han ngqi worked hard every day.
Suddenly, soone stopped her.
“Hey, where is the Jinling Institute of Computational Materials?”
Han ngqi paused for a second as she looked at this person.
She saw a guy in a plaid shirt and black glasses. There was nothing special about his appearance. He looked like a typical engineer. Although he didn’t look like a bad person, he looked a little dodgy.
“You’re not from here?”
Who doesn’t know where the Jinling Institute of Computational Materials is?
The news spread on campus when the chemistry departnt decided to loan the entire building to God Lu.
The guy panicked and said, “The thing is... I’m here to find Dr. Yang, I have so things to ask him. Can you please tell where it is, thanks!”
His acting was very poor.
Han ngqi beca even more suspicious of him.
Who cares what you’re here to do, why are you telling ...
Han ngqi pointed in a general direction.
“Just go down the road from here...”
Han ngqi was going the sa direction, but this guy was too suspicious, so she didn’t want to walk with him.
The guy thanked her and went on his way.
Han ngqi looked at him and frowned.
Why do I...
Why do I feel like...
This person is a bit strange?
