Chapter 427: Mentality Collapse
Although still on the plane, Zheng Nanling was already impatient for Lu Yiming's plan.
“When can we start?”
Lu Yiming couldn't wait any longer. After all, other companies had already started making this product, and other than not being easy to use, those products didn't have any other shortcomings. If he didn't start right away, he might not be able to eat shit before it was hot.
"I'll form a team and start working on it as soon as I get back to China. Don't worry, I already have a complete product plan, and you guys just need to do the actual work."
These words made Zheng Nanling full of confidence. He was still in college and had no experience in the workplace, so he had no idea how rare it was to have the opportunity to be independently responsible for a large project right after joining the company.
Long Qiquan saw everything and nodded secretly in his heart. He was happy to see that Zheng Nanling was valued by Lu Yiming.
Moreover, he was even more optimistic about Lu Yiming's forward-looking vision in the business field.
When he returned to China, it was the weekend. Lu Yiming went home to see his parents, who showed him a lot of concern. After all, he had traveled across the sea to the other side of the earth. Lu Ding and Ning Xuehua were still very worried, as they only had this one son.
Lu Yiming came back from abroad, and Lu Ding, who was usually busy in the factory, also came back early.
While Ning Xuehua was washing fruits for Lu Yiming, she asked curiously, "Is the public security in the United States really as bad as you said before?"
Lu Yiming said matter-of-factly: "Some places are indeed that bad, but the places I went to were all central areas, so it was not bad."
Lu Yiming has kept in mind the ancient saying that a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall ever since he was kidnapped.
His life is quite valuable nowadays, so he always brings bodyguards with him whenever he goes out. Safety is his first priority wherever he goes, and he never takes any action lightly.
In the United States, even with bodyguards, he never went to places with few people on his own. After all, the flesh and blood can't stop bullets.
Afterwards, Lu Yiming also talked about what he had seen and heard in the United States during this period. Although there was no historical heritage or cultural relics to speak of, there was still a bit of exoticism, which made Lu Ding and Ning Xuehua marvel.
Lu Ding said: "If you have the chance, you can go out and see the customs and practices of different countries."
Lu Yiming smiled and said, "Sure, traveling to Europe or somewhere else is great, I can arrange it then."
After chatting for a while, Ning Xuehua saw that it was getting late, so she stood up and said, "I'm going to buy some groceries and cook. What do you want to eat?"
Lu Yiming said: "I have to go out soon, so I won't eat at home."
Ning Xuehua was immediately dissatisfied: "Hey, kid, you just came back and you ran outside. You can't stay at home, right?"
Lu Ding chimed in, "Okay, my son must have something else to do, so stay out of it."
Ning Xuehua was unhappy, her mouth pouted, and she wanted to stand on tiptoe: "This is my son, why can't I get involved?"
Seeing his parents start to do oral radio gymnastics again, Lu Yiming immediately stood up and slipped away: "Dad, Mom, I'm going out first."
Lu Yiming went out and asked Zhao Tiezhu to drive out.
"Go to Shi's house."
Outside the Shi family's gate, Lu Yiming took out his cell phone and called Shi Qingxue.
"Hey, beautiful lady, did you miss me?"
Recognizing Lu Yiming's voice, Shi Qingxue jumped up from the bed. She remembered that she had n't seen Lu Yiming for a long time, and immediately said aggrievedly: "Lu Yiming! When will you come back? I miss you so much."
Lu Yiming teased her, "Huh? You missed me so much? How about you kiss me and I'll appear in front of you right away?"
Shi Qingxue muttered, "How is that possible? You are in the United States now. Even if I kiss you, you can't come back."
Shi Qingxue sounded more and more aggrieved as she spoke, and at the end her voice even had a hint of tears in it.
After all, when a couple in love are separated for such a long time, she always feels like something is missing in her heart.
"How do you know if you don't try? Just give me a kiss."
Shi Qingxue quickly gave the microphone a loud bang and said, "Show up soon."
Before she finished her words, the door of her room was pushed open by Lu Yiming.
"Ding ding ding, I'm back."
"ah……"
Shi Qingxue was extremely surprised. She threw her cell phone down, jumped up from the bed, and ran towards Lu Yiming. Then she jumped lightly, hooked Lu Yiming's arm, wrapped her legs around Lu Yiming's waist, and hung her whole body on Lu Yiming.
"Lu Yiming, when did you come back?"
Lu Yiming smelled the long-lost girlish fragrance emanating from Shi Qingxue and said, "I just got off the plane today. By the way, you said kiss just now..."
Before she finished her words, Shi Qingxue's lips fell on Lu Yiming's cheek.
"I'm back, are you happy?"
"happy!"
"Would you like a kiss here?"
"want!"
Shi Qingxue also kissed Lu Yiming on the other cheek.
Suddenly, Shi Qingxue heard the sound of someone walking outside, her expression changed immediately, and she asked, "Is anyone home?"
Lu Yiming said: "Of course, otherwise how would I get in?"
Shi Qingxue blushed immediately and quickly got off Lu Yiming's body. She glanced towards the door guiltily, fearing that someone would pass by at this time.
After changing their clothes, Shi Qingxue and Lu Yiming walked out of the living room. Seeing Shi Caijiang watching TV, Shi Qingxue called out in a low voice, "Dad," as if she had done something wrong.
Shi Caijiang looked at Lu Yiming. He felt that after a period of training, Lu Yiming was becoming more and more powerful.
"Xiao Ming, did everything go well during your trip to the United States to participate in the competition?"
Lu Yiming smiled and said, "It went pretty smoothly. I won the individual championship and the team championship as well."
"Wow! That's really great. This is a world-class competition. Doesn't that mean you are number one in the world?"
Lu Yiming said modestly: "There are many experts among the people. I just got first place by luck. I can't say I'm the best in the world."
Shi Qingxue smiled and said, "That's pretty impressive too."
As a girl, who doesn’t want her ideal husband to be a talented person?
Shi Caijiang knew that a short separation was better than a new marriage, and the two young people must have a lot to talk about, so he immediately stood up and said, "I have something else to do, Xiao Ming, you sit here now."
"good."
After Shi Caijiang left, Shi Qingxue relaxed a lot and moved closer to Lu Yiming. She hooked her hands around Lu Yiming's shoulders and asked, "Why didn't you tell me before you came back?"
Lu Yiming naturally put his arm around Shi Qingxue's slender waist and said, "I want to give you a surprise."
Then Lu Yiming smiled and said to Shi Qingxue: "I have two pieces of news now. One is good news, and the other is also good news. Which one do you want to hear first?"
Shi Qingxue glared at Lu Yiming and said, "You are here to talk about Lu Xun literature with me, right?"
After saying that, she gently hit Lu Yiming's arm and urged him with a look of anger: "Hurry up and tell me, don't keep us in suspense."
Seeing this, Lu Yiming stopped teasing her and said with a smile: "The first good news is that I was specially recruited by Fu Ri University and I am exempt from the entrance examination and do not need to take the college entrance examination."
Shi Qingxue opened her eyes wide: "Oh my God, Fu Ri University?"
Not long ago, Times Higher Education released the world university rankings. Seven Chinese universities were among the top 100 in the world, and Fuzhou University ranked third, second only to Peking University and Tsinghua University.
A truly top domestic university.
"Congratulations, you are admitted without taking an entrance exam."
Shi Qingxue was very happy, even happier than when she was admitted to university, and she stuck to Lu Yiming.
"I knew you were awesome."
But then he thought about his grades and realized that there was no chance of him getting into Fu Ri University, so his eyes suddenly became a little gloomy.
If Lu Yiming goes to study at Fu Ri University, won’t the two of them be separated again in the future?
Shi Qingxue's family knew her own situation. With her grades, there was no way she would be able to get into Fu Ri University.
As soon as Lu Yiming saw her expression, he knew what she was thinking, and he had already expected this situation. Knowing the ending, he was not panicked at all and teased, "Why, are you unhappy?"
"No."
Shi Qingxue turned her face away, not wanting Lu Yiming to see what she was thinking.
"I haven't even told you the second piece of news yet. Isn't it too early to be unhappy now?"
After saying that, Lu Yiming smiled and took Shi Qingxue's hand seriously: "Congratulations, Shi Qingxue, you have also been specially recruited by Fu Ri University."
"ah?"
Shi Qingxue looked up in surprise, her face full of disbelief.
"How is this possible?"
Lu Yiming smiled and said, "With me here, nothing is impossible."
Shi Qingxue said sincerely: "Lu Yiming, you must have made a deal with someone, right? In fact, it doesn't matter if I don't go to Fu Ri University, and it doesn't matter if I can't get into university. If you go to Fu Ri University to study, I will buy a house nearby so that I can see you anytime. I just hope that you will not look down on my academic qualifications in the future."
Lu Yiming shook his head and said, "How can that be possible? Didn't we agree to go to college together? What, do you want to go back on your word?"
"No."
Shi Qingxue was deeply moved. She knew that Lu Yiming must have paid a lot for this condition. After all, that was Fu Ri University, a super prestigious university ranked in the top ten in the country.
How could there be no cost for allowing a university like this to give you a backdoor?
Lu Yiming smiled and squeezed her palm: "Okay, don't think too much. I worked so hard to get the quota, you can't refuse it, right? Wouldn't I be at a huge loss then?"
Shi Qingxue pouted and asked in frustration: "Tell me, am I really useless?"
Lu Yiming tapped her head and said, "Why think about this? There are so many people who use the backdoor, and you are not the only one. But this matter should not be publicized. Let's talk about it after everything is settled."
Shi Qingxue nodded seriously. She also understood the principle of not showing off one's wealth, and she was not the kind of person who liked to show off everywhere.
Now that she has obtained the special recruitment quota, she can enter Fu Ri University with Lu Yiming. She cherishes this opportunity very much.
The next morning, Lu Yiming went to school, but was surprised to find a very long banner hung at the school gate, which read: "Welcome Lu Yiming, the double champion of the ACM International College Programming Competition, both the individual and team competitions, back to China."
Lu Yiming's face was immediately filled with black lines, and he was even more speechless when he looked at the group of school leaders under the banner.
Hey guys, do you have to be so pretentious?
"Welcome, welcome, our champion is back."
"The world champion is back."
As the saying goes, today I am proud of my school, and tomorrow the school will be proud of me. Lu Yiming won the championship of the international competition at the last moment of his senior year, which is a blessing and honor for No. 1 Middle School.
In fact, when Zhu Hanwen told the principal that Lu Yiming was going to participate in the ACM International College Programming Competition, the principal did not pay much attention to it. As soon as he learned that Lu Yiming won the championship, he responded quickly, had someone hang up a banner, and personally went to the school gate to greet Lu Yiming.
Wow, Baiyun No. 1 Middle School actually produced a world champion?
This made the principal very excited. He personally visited Lu Yiming's home last night, but when he asked, he found out that he was not there.
There was no other choice but to do this this morning. I had to let the champion feel the feeling of returning home in glory.
The class teacher Zhu Hanwen was also in the crowd.
After being encouraged by several school leaders, Lu Yiming came to Zhu Hanwen and said with a smile: "Teacher Zhu, how are you these days?"
Although Lu Yiming won the world championship, Zhu Hanwen still habitually said: "If you take less leave, I think I can live a few more years."
After hearing this, Lu Yiming shook his head slightly and said, "Teacher Zhu, that won't work. I have to take a long vacation when I come back this time."
When Zhu Hanwen heard this, his blood pressure immediately rose, and he said loudly: "Do you know that the college entrance examination is coming soon? Are you going to give up?"
Seeing Zhu Hanwen's furious look, Lu Yiming immediately found it very funny and teased him, "I really don't plan to take the college entrance examination. It's mainly a waste of time. The company has a big project to do and I can't leave."
Mingyuan Technology's MP3 project was aimed at stealing Apple's business, so Lu Yiming naturally couldn't rest assured if he handed it over to someone else. After all, if he wanted to steal Apple's business, this was his last chance.
But Zhu Hanwen didn't know any of this. He only knew that with Lu Yiming's grades, it wouldn't be difficult for him to get into a good university.
Now, Lu Yiming actually said that he would not take the college entrance examination?
How can this be possible?
Zhu Hanwen was panicking and tried to persuade her earnestly, "Think about it carefully. Taking the college entrance exam is a big event in life. Why don't you go back and discuss it with your family before making a decision?"
Lu Yiming said: "I have thought it through very clearly. The main reason is that Fu Ri University is willing to recruit me. What can I do if I don't have to take the college entrance examination?"
"Even if it's Fu Ri University's special recruitment...wait, Fu Ri University, special recruitment?"
"yes."
Lu Yiming looked at Zhu Hanwen, who looked confused, and nodded gently: "Admission without examination has been negotiated."
Zhu Hanwen felt a little annoyed, but he was still happy for Lu Yiming and said, "If that's the case, then there's no problem."
The next second, he said to Lu Yiming with a dark face: "Why don't you get out of here right away? If you are a student who asks for leave every day, it will affect the mentality of other students!"
Not to mention the students in the class, Zhu Hanwen felt that his own mentality was a little broken.
