Genius Girlfriend - v4 Chapter 119
Jiang Yubai understood Li Zirui very well.
Years ago, Jiang Yubai’s mentality was similar to that of Li Zirui, and even more serious.
Jiang Yubai remembered that he gave up on vacation and party. Daily entertainment only included drawing the comics of “Exploring the Universe” and hanging horizontal bars on the playground. Even if he and Lin Zhixia had a good time, he stubbornly believed that he had not fallen, he was just using tactics flexibly to make his competitors take it lightly.
Jiang Yubai’s eyes became a little complicated.
Li Zirui waved at him: “I’m really big head, stop talking, I will go back to study.”
“Come on.” Jiang Yubai blessed sincerely.
Li Zirui hurriedly walked away with her schoolbag slung.
The other three students in the class walked out of the classroom one after another. The boy named Han Guang was still chatting with Lin Zhixia: “I voted for “Physicalreviewletters” for my paper last semester.”
Jiang Yubai had heard of “Physicalreviewletters” and he knew it was the top journal in physics, and it would be great for undergraduates to publish a paper in this journal.
When Lin Zhixia was undergraduate, he published two articles in “Physicalreviewletters”, which once again received extensive media attention. But as always, she declined all interviews, for fear that she would mistakenly fall into a situation where everyone was scrutinized.
Han Guang obviously knows Lin Zhixia’s academic background. He succinctly described his current situation: “I submitted the manuscript for three months, and I received a reply from three reviewers the day before yesterday. Two reviewers asked me to change the model and recalculate…”
Earlier this month, Lin Zhixia’s mentor specially matched Lin Zhixia before taking a vacation, making her a reviewer for top journals. She accepted the invitation of the journal editor. There are still two papers lying on her computer, waiting for her review.
Therefore, she is very concerned about Han Guang: “Are the three reviewers giving you positive opinions?”
“It’s pretty good, they all wrote positive reviews.” Han Guang replied.
“Then don’t worry about it,” Lin Zhixia shared her experience. “You refer to the reviewer’s opinion, carefully check your paper, and what is missing. If the reviewer’s point of view is wrong, you should contact them in time and communicate. Only progress can be made.”
Han Guang smiled suddenly: “I don’t know if the reviewer is right or wrong.”
“Are you an independent author?” Lin Zhixia asked again, “Have you ever found a teacher?”
Han Guang unzipped his schoolbag and took out a printed paper and review comments: “My teacher went to the Max Planck Institute.”
Han Guang’s “Max Planck Institute” refers to the Max Planck Institute for Physics in Germany, also known as the Heisenberg Institute. This institution has a high academic level and has a high reputation in the physics community.
Han Guang explained briefly that his teacher was very busy at the Max Planck Institute, and his emails were not returned until a week later. He felt that Lin Zhixia had a solid foundation and reached the level of a reviewer. Before he finished speaking, Lin Zhixia promised: “Okay, give me your paper and review comments. I’ll take a look at it for you.”
He froze for a second, and immediately handed the manuscript to her.
Lin Zhixia flipped it through and said, “I will finish reading it tomorrow, and I will write you an email tomorrow night.”
“So fast? You don’t do anything else?” Han Guang asked in surprise.
Lin Zhixia said sincerely: “Because I think your time is a bit tight. You want to apply for a Ph.D. at MIT, and you must have a paper from a top journal on hand, so that you can collocate with the professor. This paper will be published earlier. Application will be much easier.”
She stared at Han Guang, her eyes full of light.
Han Guang’s vision was erratic, wandering around. He compared Lin Zhixia with other teaching assistants, and thought to himself that Lin Zhixia’s teaching method was more suitable for him. Li Zirui is under great pressure, and he is like a fish in water.
Lin Zhixia put Han Guang’s paper into her schoolbag: “If you have any questions, don’t delay, just send me an email. I wish you success in your application in advance.”
Han Guang said, “It’s pretty good, thank you.”
Lin Zhixia waved her hand nonchalantly: “I am your teaching assistant, and I should do all this. The school paid me a salary.”
After saying this, Lin Zhixia held Jiang Yubai’s hand: “I’ve been waiting, when did you come?”
Jiang Yubai said: “Two to fifty.”
“You have no class today?” Lin Zhixia asked again.
Jiang Yubai’s fingertips rubbed against her palm, making her itchy.
They walked together on the sunny stone road. Lin Zhixia deliberately stepped on his shadow. He even let go of her hand and took out two membership cards from his pockets.
“What is this?” Lin Zhixia asked him.
Jiang Yubai answered the wrong question: “You have been studying for a Ph.D. for seven months and have never been out to play. Your tutor is on vacation. Do you want to go to another place this weekend? Change the environment and enjoy the scenery.”
Today, the weather is clear, breeze and smooth. Lin Zhixia is bathed in the warm sunshine, her heart is about to move, her expression is a bit hesitant: “No…I want to change the paper, I am a reviewer, and I have no time to rest.”
Jiang Yubai believes that Lin Zhixia is too exhausted and hardworking. Since she studied for a PhD, she has less and less time to relax.
Jiang Yubai described a beautiful blueprint for her: “We are going to Switzerland for two days and two nights. We will leave today and come back next Monday. I booked a hotel room. The hotel is near the Alps and the scenery is very good. There are mountains and waters. …Didn’t you always want to see the Alps?”
Yes it is.
Lin Zhixia liked to eat alpine candy when she was a child, so she has always been curious about the Alps. She heard Jiang Yubai talk about the scene of “Heavy snow on the top of the mountain and green grass in the mountain”, and the scene of the clear and turbulent stream rushing turbulently at the foot of the mountain.
Moreover, Lin Zhixia already holds a Swiss visa. Their research group has close ties with the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology. This summer, Lin Zhixia was going to the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology to give an academic report, so she applied for a visa in advance.
Can she travel to Switzerland first?
Lin Zhixia faintly wavered.
She has never traveled with family and friends.
In her memory, Mom and Dad are very busy at work-they have to look after the supermarket at home. A family of four eats at the same table only a handful of times, let alone traveling as a family.
Every Spring Festival, Mom and Dad will bring Lin Zhixia and Lin Zeqiu back to their rural homes. Mom and Dad are from the same village, and grandparents and grandparents still live in the village.
Grandpa and grandma’s house is a self-built two-story building. There is a pig and a group of chickens in the yard, which smells like leftovers all the year round. Every winter, a stove is set up in the lobby, and an inch of soot floats up. Uncles, aunts and cousins always occupy the best positions for roasting. They often talked about their family’s vacation experiences in Japan, Korea, and Maldives. At that time, Lin Zhixia was actually a little envious. She knew that her brother was also very envious. But neither she nor her brother would show it. Both of them will pretend that they prefer to stay in the countryside and feed pigs and play in the mud.
But how can the child’s mind escape the adult’s eyes?
She suddenly understood the embarrassment and embarrassment of her parents sitting around the fire many years ago. As parents, they cannot provide better material conditions for their children, which is also a helpless thing for them.
Lin Zhixia fell into the memory and gradually lowered her head.
Jiang Yubai’s voice interrupted her thoughts: “You can bring your laptop and review the manuscript in the hotel room. This time it will be used as a stepping point. If you like it, we will play more in the future.”
The word “step on” touched Lin Zhixia.
She asked: “How much does the accommodation cost per night?”
More than 10,000 yuan, Jiang Yubai thought. Taking into account Lin Zhixia’s economic level, he concealed the price from Lin Zhixia.
Jiang Yubai obliquely said: “My father has a cooperation with this hotel.”-This is a truth. Jiang Yubai’s father controls a European food transportation company. That resort hotel happened to be one of the customers of the transportation company.
Jiang Yubai’s description is cut off, the hotel’s luxurious suite sounds like a free gift. In the end, he successfully persuaded Lin Zhixia. If he told her the travel plan a few days in advance, she would have the opportunity to check the hotel room prices online, but he delayed until Friday afternoon and said that Lin Zhixia had no time to think about it, so she approved his arrangement.
Lin Zhixia returned to her bedroom, quickly packed her luggage, and got in Jiang Yubai’s sedan when she left the house. They took a private jet and landed at a Swiss airport after a short flight of one and a half hours.
it’s getting dark.
The bright moon rises high in the sky, sprinkling a thin and soft halo.
Lin Zhixia was sitting in a business car. The car ran smoothly on the highway and went straight to their resort hotel. Lin Zhixia was holding the car window glass with both hands, looking at the scenery outside the window. She couldn’t see the snow-covered mountain top, but could only see the lush grass under the moonlight and the color of the lights.
Lin Zhixia felt excited.
Then, she suddenly thought of a question: “Jiang Yubai.”
Jiang Yubai approached her: “What?”
“How many rooms have you booked?” she asked seriously.
Jiang Yubai said: “A suite.”
Lin Zhixia turned her head and looked at him with a very soft voice: “So, this weekend, will I sleep on the same bed with you? To be honest, I haven’t been mentally prepared enough yet.”
Jiang Yubai gave an “um” in his voice. He said: “Last year’s New Year’s Eve, we stayed in a bed for one night.”
“No, no,” Lin Zhixia corrected. “It’s not just sleeping, it means that.”
Jiang Yubai took a breath.
The sweet scent spreads, and a slight air current blows over his ears. Lin Zhixia sticks to his ear and whispers: “It’s all acting like this in movies. The male and female protagonists go to travel together, and they will…”
