Chapter 124: No Need to Slap You in the Face, Letting You Feel Ashamed (Seeking First Subscription)
"Xiao Su, which school did you graduate from?" Kong Lan had great confidence in her daughter's postgraduate studies, and this was also something she took pride in.
The whole family sat down, the room seemed very crowded, and everyone's topic was focused on the beautiful woman in Kong Tianci's mouth, who was also the only outsider to appear today.
"Yan Da." Su Xi said calmly.
"That's quite impressive, isn't it? It's not easy to get into Yanda University?" Kong Lan's tone dropped by half.
"It's okay." Su Xixi wasn't being pretentious. The reason she chose Yanda University in the first place was something that had deeply hurt Zhang Shidong when he first heard it - simply because it was closer to her workplace and residence, nothing more. At the time, the presidents of universities like Shuimu and Renmin had all let out a sigh upon hearing this reason.
If it were someone else, they wouldn't continue to ask questions in Su Xi's ordinary tone. When someone gives a vague answer, it's clear they don't want to discuss the issue. Who would intentionally expose someone else's scars? Kong Lan has always been arrogant and overbearing, and even after working at the bank for many years, others have always given in to her. Her husband is a teacher and normally has a good temper, which makes Kong Lan look down on others who are better than herself.
"Xiao Su scored how many points to get in, my little Yu didn't perform well at the time, otherwise our first choice would also be Yan Da, but it's okay, after completing undergraduate studies at Beihai University, and continuing to pursue a master's degree, recently heard that Yan Da is specially recruiting some doctoral students, our little Yu has been reviewing lately, this time we won't miss Yan Da." Kong Lan said with extreme pride.
Su Xi didn't seem to notice Kong Lan's hint and glanced at Zhang Shidong. Seeing him nod slightly, she said lightly, "You can call me when the time comes, I'll help you contact a Ph.D. supervisor?"
Kong Lang was about to roll his eyes when Wang Yu, who had been sitting with an air of self-importance, suddenly jumped up from his chair and pointed at Su Xixi, exclaiming excitedly: "You... you... are that Su Xixi?"
Su Xi nodded, confirming Wang Yu's guess.
King Yu's face turned bright red with excitement as he hastily approached her, grasping her hand and refusing to let go. He gazed at her from head to toe, his eyes filled with adoration.
Kong Lan was taken aback: "Xiao Su, do you have connections at Yanda?"
"Mom, don't talk anymore, it's so embarrassing."
When they saw Wang Yu's appearance, the curiosity of the people in the house was piqued, especially Kong Tianxi, who was most interested in saying that the heavens were unfair. As soon as he entered the house, he gathered with Zhang Shidong, and being one year older than Zhang Shidong from childhood to adulthood made him the core of the two men. Seeing someone had a beautiful girl by their side, Kong Tianxi was filled with jealousy, shouting that this kid Zhang Shidong had walked into dog shit luck and brought back an immortal maiden.
The old man and the old lady are most clear about their children's appearance. The eldest son is arrogant, the eldest daughter is arrogant, and the second son has been wealthy and rough in recent years. Only the second daughter and the third daughter have not been spoiled by society. Among them, the situation of the eldest daughter Kong Lan is the most serious, and her arrogance has been passed down to Wang Yu's generation. In this family, each individual may not be the best, but it is a comprehensive strength that is unmatched. They are not short of money, and their social status is high. Most importantly, among the third-generation children, none of them are decent university students. Zhang Yiqing's third-rate university can't even show its face, while Wang Yu, who studied at Beihai University, has become the family's only pride, making her fans admire and worship her with excitement. Who is this beautiful little Su?
Wang Yu was excited for half a day before speaking normally. His hand, however, remained clasped around Su Xixi's, as if afraid that the perfect goddess in his eyes would disappear before him if he let go.
"Little Dong, you're the pride of your older sister." Wang Yu and Zhang Shidong are of the same age, with birthdays just a little apart. All along, she had some reservations about Kong Tianxi and Zhang Shidong's mischievous duo, looking down on them and not deigning to associate with them. This time, however, she first gave Zhang Shidong a thumbs up, thinking that the goddess was awesome, and the person who won over the goddess was even more awesome.
"Grandfather, grandmother, mother, Xixi, how old are you this year?" Suddenly, Wang Yu thought of something and asked Su Xixi, looking at her face which had no signs of aging.
"One year younger than him."
"Ah! My goodness, idol, you're too awesome, grandma, mom, do you still remember the best history score in the college entrance exam?" Wang Yu almost fainted, this score was created when she just entered high school.
Others had not reacted yet, but Zhang Shidong, a high school teacher, suddenly lit up his eyes, patted his thigh, and almost knocked over the cigarette in Zhang Jun's hand as he stood up: "769 points, minus one point for Chinese, plus 20 points for the National Olympiad first prize, Su Xixi, who was only 16 years old when she took the college entrance exam, holds a double Ph.D. in politics and economics from Yanjing University, is a doctoral supervisor at the School of Economics at Yanjing University, and is the youngest academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering..."
As every word and sentence came out of Da Yi Fu's mouth, the entire room held its breath. Except for Zhang Shi Dong who was still smoking nonchalantly by the window and Su Xi Xi who remained calm, everyone else was stunned by Su Xi Xi's resume.
There is no photo of her in all public information. Wang Yu remembered that she was because of the high school entrance examination that year was too against the sky. Her husband's elder brother completely recited the educational materials from his brain, no wonder people said that after Wang Yu went to Yanda, he could help contact doctoral tutors. It's not bragging or arrogant, but she really has this skill.
Ancient saying: A woman without talent is virtuous. In today's society, talented women are often equated with ugly and old women. I was previously amazed that Su Xixi was too beautiful for Zhang Shidong to handle, but now I completely stand on Su Xixi's side. How did such a woman end up with Zhang Shidong? It's not scientific at all.
Dual PhD degrees? A pioneering doctoral supervisor who broke precedents? Creating a precedent for the youngest academician and also being cross-disciplinary?
The old lady no longer dared to believe that she had just been holding her hand and chatting about family affairs. The second aunt was even more unbelievable that some of her trivial words were spoken to a person standing in the clouds.
Everyone looked at Su Xixi again. Behind her was a halo of light. The arrogance of this family was easily defeated by Su Xixi alone. Whether it was government officials or wealthy tycoons, or self-proclaimed cultural figures, in front of a young person who had already been addressed as an academician, everyone had to put aside all their arrogance.
After staring at Su Xixi for a while, they all shifted their gaze to Zhang Shidong. This mischievous kid who everyone thought was destined to be useless his whole life is now working as a small employee in a company with connections, and he even has a girlfriend who only exists in legend, it's just too unbelievable.
"Ah, I see. Little Su, was the person who left your bodyguard?" Kong Lianda suddenly thought of the old knife that hadn't entered the door and asked uncertainly.
"Hmm." Su Xixi remained calm and composed, accustomed to facing anyone's gaze. She still remembered the skeptical looks she received when she first joined the confidential department, which had caused her a lot of distress. The troubles of a genius are often hard to alleviate, until she met Zhang Shidong. The rising Zhang Shidong took her on a wild escape from their workplace, evading pursuit and playing hide-and-seek in five or six tourist spots before being caught. It was also because of that incident that Su Xixi abandoned her Ph.D. in political science, which could have led to a career in politics, and instead turned to the study of information engineering, eventually becoming a historic academician.
"That little thing brought them back home, it's a big New Year's festival, how can you let people spend the New Year outside?"
Zhang Shidong waved his hand: "It's okay, that old guy, even if you let him stay, he wouldn't be interested. He hasn't needed this kind of festive atmosphere for many years."
Everyone looked at Zhang Shidong with suspicion and a hint of blame, while sneaking glances at Su Xixi, afraid that she would get angry.
……………
There were still a few skeptical people. After Su Xi casually said a few words and made Wang Yu's father and daughter convinced, they would no longer be suspicious. In the words of Wang Yu's dad, with Little Su's few words of advice, Little Rain's chances of passing the postgraduate exam increased greatly, and he was confident that his daughter could become the first doctor in both the Kong and Wang families.
Su Xixi merged into this big family in a strong and destructive way, and her existence also indirectly made Zhang Jun's family the protagonist of this big family for the first time.
Young people led by Kong Tianxi rushed to the second floor of his house. In the more modern living room on the first floor, Wang Yu and Yu Meidan surrounded Su Xixi, while Kong Tianxi dragged Zhang Shidong's neck to his room. Dabao thought for a long time, suddenly hugged the Transformer and took Zhang Yiqing, who was also shocked by Su Xixi's identity, to Su Xixi's side, sat on the sofa, and honestly leaned against Su Xixi's thigh to play with the Transformer. Yu Meidan said that such a big treasure, spoiled since childhood, had never seen him so honest before.
The old man's room suddenly became lively. The second aunt and the big aunt were busy in the kitchen. Seafood dishes are not difficult to make, either stir-fry or steam will satisfy the taste of inland people. With a few ingredients such as chili pepper, chili sauce, vinegar, oil, garlic, etc., it was almost ready. The food still had that freshness and original flavor.
"How did Xiaodong and the others get to know each other?"
In the room, there were only two old men and four males left. Dajiufu's academic status was not high in this family, but with the development of relationships between students' parents over the past two years, he finally gained a position.
Zhang Jun had just been promoted to Director of Public Security Bureau, which should have been a celebratory event, but after rumors of losing his gun and having style problems came out, things that were supposed to change did not.
Zhang Jun shook his head: "Xiao Dong did a good job in the army and was injured for the country before retiring. Xiao Su said she was serving Xiao Dong, I think it's possible that they worked together before?" There was a hint of pride in Zhang Jun's words.
"Wounded for the country?" Kong Lianren frowned: "What's going on, got into trouble in the army?" He subconsciously looked at Zhang Jun with old eyes, not believing what he said, and directly put Zhang Shidong in the category of those who had gotten into trouble and been forced to retire.
If it were in the past, Zhang Jun would just laugh it off and not care, but now, no way. With a flick of his eyelid, the majesty emanating from his body as the one in charge made Kong Lian feel like he was facing his superior, and his body involuntarily straightened up...
