76 The Happy Professor Zhang; Aren’t You Guys Going to Persuade Him?
Even though the Song family was a powerful family in Jiangbei… and they were ranked at the top even in the Jiang Province…
However, even for the Song family, it would be difficult to buy the entire Coiling Dragon Villa Complex.
After all, this involved one to two billion yuan.
“This is what you meant by a little tight on funds?” Song Jiaxin asked curiously.
Who would spend one or two billion to buy houses?
Lin Fan could only laugh it off.
What could he say?
Could he possibly tell her that he got the houses from a silver packet?
She would not believe it even if he said it!
After Lin Fan asked the furniture company to place the sofas and beds in the villa, he did not move in immediately.
It was too empty and lonely for a person to live in such a villa alone.
After Lin Fan and Song Jiaxin parted ways, he went to Yi Ke City.
Huang Ling had flown to another city and would only be back the day after tomorrow.
Only Lin Fan and Qiu Ziqian were in the entire house, so they were even more unscrupulous.
One had to admit that Lin Fan was very capable. Even though he had done it for two nights straight, he was still full of energy.
That night, the big bed was like a music box that sang the whole night.
…
The next day.
Jiangbei University.
The counselor, Sun Yaodong, was humming a tune in the corridor, swaying as he walked.
He was obviously in a good mood.
When Sun Yaodong met a middle-aged professor, he said proudly, “Old Fang, what did I say? Didn’t my students get a few provincial awards?
“One even got the National Award!
“In two days, Lin Fan will go to Jingbei for his dissertation. He might even be able to win the Higher Education Cup!”
Since yesterday, Sun Yaodong had been saying similar things.
The middle-aged professor had no way of refuting that.
It was because a student really did win the National Award.
At that moment, Lin Fan walked over.
Sun Yaodong’s eyes lit up.
No matter how he looked at Lin Fan, he found him pleasing to the eye.
“Lin Fan, are you going to the Mathematics Department’s office?” Sun Yaodong asked.
“Yes, Professor Zhang asked me to go over,” Lin Fan said.
Sun Yaodong nodded and said, “He’ll probably discuss the Jingbei oral defense with you. Your ability is outstanding, so make good use of this opportunity. Our class’ honor depends on you!”
Lin Fan’s lips twitched when he heard this.
He clearly remembered that Counselor Sun had said almost the same thing to him the last time.
Then, he convinced him to sign up for the National Mathematical Modeling Competition.
He was saying such things again?
Unfortunately, he was going to be disappointed this time.
Lin Fan laughed noncommittally.
Then, he walked to the Mathematics Department’s office.
At this time, Zhang Yong was sitting in his office, drinking tea and reading newspapers.
The moment he caught sight of Lin Fan, his murky eyes lit up with a bright light.
“Lin Fan, come and sit down. Have some tea first.”
Even though Zhang Yong had not given Lin Fan any training, no matter what, Lin Fan won the National Mathematical Modeling Competition.
This was also beneficial to him.
“Thank you, Professor Zhang,” Lin Fan said.
After drinking a mouthful of tea, there was a hint of sweetness in the bitterness, just like the taste of life.
Zhang Yong said, “Generally speaking, the list of winners for the National Award and even the Higher Education Cup has already been announced. They chose the model and thesis you submitted.
“The reason why I’m letting you guys go to Jingbei to defend your dissertation is to check if you guys completed it on your own.
“So, when you go to Jingbei tomorrow, don’t be nervous. Just answer according to the model.”
“Professor Zhang, I’m not planning to go to Jingbei,” Lin Fan said.
“Oh.”
Zhang Yong nodded with a smile, but the next moment, his whole body froze.
“You… What did you just say? You’re not going to the capital?” Zhang Yong’s eyes widened.
“Yes, I’m not,” Lin Fan said.
“Why? You’re very talented. If you win the first prize in the country or even the Higher Education Cup, the school will give you a large scholarship.
“Also, this will be very beneficial for your research and even your work in the future!” Zhang Yong said.
High scholarship?
Was it even one million?
Even with a one million yuan scholarship, it was only Lin Fan’s income for a day’s sleep.
Postgraduate recommendation?
He had come to Jiangbei University to experience college life.
As for work?
Lin Fan did not care about that at all.
“Those are useless to me. I still don’t want to go to Jingbei,” Lin Fan said.
“What…” Zhang Yong was a little anxious and paced back and forth in the office.
“Lin Fan, this is a really good opportunity. The school will pay for all your travel expenses. Just treat it as a two-day trip to Jingbei. Isn’t that great?
“If you don’t go now, you’ll definitely regret it in the future!”
However, no matter what, Lin Fan remained unmoved.
At this moment, Zhang Yong suddenly thought of the first time they met. It was the scene of Lin Fan hugging Xia Bing and Xia Xue.
He continued, “The National Mathematical Modeling Competition is a team competition. Even if you don’t want to go to Jingbei and even if you don’t care about the honor and trophies, you have to consider your teammates, Xia Bing and Xia Xue.
“They really need these!”
The moment he said that, Lin Fan could not help but hesitate.
Xia Bing and Xia Xue were only ordinary students, but their computer skills were outstanding.
Moreover, they even signed up for the National Mathematical Modeling Competition.
Perhaps, they really needed the certificate and trophy?
Zhang Yong was delighted to see that his words seemed to have worked.
He was prepared to be a little more ruthless with his methods.
Thus, he picked up his phone and dialed the phone number of a lecturer from the School of Computer Science.
After a while, Xia Bing and Xia Xue slowly walked in.
When they saw Lin Fan, their pretty faces immediately revealed sweet smiles.
Zhang Yong cleared his throat and said, “Lin Fan just said that he doesn’t want to go to Jingbei to participate in the oral defense. Xia Bing, Xia Xue, you guys should quickly persuade him.”
After he finished speaking, his face was like Xia Bing and Xia Xue’s, revealing a smile.
“Then we won’t go either,” Xia Bing and Xia Xue said in unison.
Their answers were so decisive without the slightest hesitation.
“Huh?” Zhang Yong was stunned again.
What was going on?
This situation was completely different from what he had imagined.
“You guys won’t go? Aren’t you going to persuade him?”
Zhang Yong hurriedly said, “Xia Bing, Xia Xue, you might not know this yet. If you go to Jingbei to do your oral defense, you might win the second or first prize of the country or even the Higher Education Cup!
“But if you don’t go, you can only win the third prize.”
Xia Bing and Xia Xue said, “Okay. We won’t go.”
Okay?
They would not go?
Was this reasonable?
Zhang Yong was speechless.
He did not know how important Lin Fan was to Xia Bing and Xia Xue.
There was no need to talk about the national second prize and first prize or even the Higher Education Cup.
Even the entire world could not compare to Lin Fan!
