Chapter 514: I Am Married

Shen Zhijin.

This name was like a thunderbolt.

He was the absolute top figure in the domestic physics world, a young genius who was admitted to Xijing University at the age of 14 and entered the headquarters of Fino Laboratory in Bai City at the age of 17, becoming the first Chinese to be admitted on an exceptional basis.

At the age of 20, he had published a thesis in Universe.

Now, not only was he a big shot in astrophysics in China, but he was also very famous internationally.

Ning Li studied astronomy, so she naturally had some understanding of this important person in the field of astrophysics.

However, she had not expected Shen Zhijin to actually want to read her thesis now.

She reacted for a moment and immediately said, “Okay.”

Xu Yin gave her a few more reminders before hanging up.

Ning Li put away her phone and looked at Jiang Ran.

“Teacher Xu said that the data needs to be rushed. He hopes that the results can be released from this end as soon as possible.”

Jiang Ran and Luther were both stunned.

When Ning Li had been on the phone just now, they had not heard what Xu Yin had said.

Jiang Ran paused for a moment and said, “But the arrangements on our end have already been made. I’m afraid that it’s not appropriate to disrupt it at the last minute. Why don’t we inform Teacher Xu and wait for a while–”

“It’s not Teacher Xu who’s waiting.”

Ning Li interrupted her and said faintly,?“It’s Shen Zhijin who is waiting.”

When she said this, Jiang Ran and Luther were both shocked.

Shen Zhijin was the person in charge of the headquarters of Fino Laboratory, so he naturally had absolute authority over this place.

Now that he wanted Ning Li’s data, there was nothing for them to say.

Jiang Ran was somewhat in disbelief.

“... Teacher Shen?”

How could Shen Zhijin suddenly–

Ning Li raised her eyes and looked at her quietly.

“Please work overtime.”

...

A black car was driving on the road.

Xu Yin looked at the man sitting next to him.

He was wearing a black suit that fit him perfectly, accentuating his tall and slender figure.

Time seemed to favor him a lot, barely even leaving any traces on his face. He was still handsome and elegant, pure and clean.

His facial features were perfect. His bones, skin, and looks were all excellent. His expression was light, with a sense of detachment.

Only the scholarly air between his brows diluted this coldness a little.

He looked out the window. The hot August sun of the Capital fell on his face, but it seemed to be tinged with a slight coolness.

Xu Yin said, “I’ve already informed them. Ah Li has always been very efficient. She should be able to complete the first draft and send it over in two days.”

Shen Zhijin turned around.

While the profile view of his face was already extremely elegant, the front view of his face was even clearer.

He nodded slightly.

“I’m sorry to trouble you, Elder Xu.”

Xu Yin smiled.

“What’s so troublesome about that? It’s actually very rare for Ah Li’s thesis to be valued by you.”

There were countless researchers at home and abroad who wanted Shen Zhijin’s guidance but were unable to get it. Now, by chance, Ning Li’s thesis had been chosen by him. Being partly Ning Li’s teacher, he was naturally very happy.

Xu Yin himself was also a leading figure in this field, but to be honest, he was still not as good as Shen Zhijin.

Shen Zhijin said, “Her research direction has been chosen well.”

Xu Yin understood that for Shen Zhijin to say this was already extremely high praise.

When Ning Li had first chosen this topic, he had actually been somewhat against it.

This was because several domestic and foreign astrophysics research institutes had already been focusing on this topic since a long time ago, but they had not made any progress.

He was worried that Ning Li’s efforts would be in vain, so he had advised her to change her direction and do something that would make it easier to produce results and thesis content.

However, Ning Li had been very insistent, so he had eventually stopped persuading her.

It could be seen that Shen Zhijin was very optimistic about Ning Li’s thesis.

He jokingly said, “If Ah Li’s thesis is really published in ‘Universe’, it will break your record.”

Shen Zhijin was now forty years old. It had been twenty years since he had published his first thesis in ‘Universe’.

Also, Ning Li had just turned eighteen this year.

Shen Zhijin did not seem to care much about this and merely nodded.

“At this age... she is indeed outstanding.”

Xu Yin thought of something.

“Oh right, she will also be a freshman in the astronomy department of the Institute of Physics at Xijing University this year. Perhaps you will have the chance to meet her in the future.”

Shen Zhijin had spent more than half of his time abroad every year. He had returned to China this time to participate in the 120th anniversary of Xijing University.

“Okay.”

Shen Zhijin responded faintly.

Xu Yin’s phone rang twice again.

Someone had sent a message.

He glanced at it, and a conflicted look appeared on his face.

After a long while, he said,?“Zhijin, it’s been a while since you’ve been back to the Capital. Shi Ying and the others have planned a banquet to welcome you–”

Shen Zhijin said plainly,?“Please help me reject it.”

The rest of Xu Yin’s words were stuck in his throat, unable to move up or down.

Shen Zhijin had never participated in such occasions.

His life seemed to be filled with scientific research.

But...

“Zhijin, Shi Ying and the others have good intentions...” Xu Yin thought about the text message on his phone and tried to persuade him again. “Besides, after so many years, Shi Ying has treated you...”

Shen Zhijin looked out of the window again, his right hand gently stroking the wedding ring on his left ring finger.

His voice was clear as he reminded,?“Teacher Xu, I’m married.”

...

After the involvement of Shen Zhijin was known, the efficiency of Fino Laboratory was indeed much higher.

The next afternoon, Ning Li received the results of her data processing.

She reorganized the thesis and sent it to Xu Yin.

However, this time, Xu Yin did not give any suggestions on how to modify it. Instead, he replied with an email address.

[ Ah Li, this is Shen Zhijin’s work email address. You can just send the thesis to him directly. ]

Of course, Ning Li understood what this meant.

–Shen Zhijin wanted to personally revise her thesis.

Such an opportunity, which countless people could not even dream of, had now been placed in front of her with such ease.

She quickly sent the thesis over.

After a while, she received a receipt of acknowledgment.

[ Ah Jin has received your email! Please wait patiently, Ah Jin will reply later. ]

There was also a hand-drawn manga below. It was a white pony running under the starry sky.

Two big-headed dolls could be seen hugging each other on the back of the horse. The little girl in front was smiling happily and her eyes were curved. The little boy behind her had his lips pursed slightly as he hugged her shyly. His ears were tinged red.

Ning Li stared at the receipt, feeling stunned for a long time.

She never expected that Shen Zhijin’s work email would set up such an automatic receipt.

So... soft and cute?

It was even too dreamy and girly.

Ning Li once again recalled Shen Zhijin’s life history in her mind.

He was an absolute physics genius. It was an achievement that others could never achieve in their lifetime, yet he had easily taken it.

By the looks of it, he seemed to be a serious professional.

However, this reply was really out of place with the style of Shen Zhijin’s reputation.

Ning Li stared at the picture for a few more moments and was suddenly stunned.

This brushstroke...

Didn’t it seem to be exactly the same as the handwritten booklet that had been given as a gift with the acceptance letter for the Literature Department of Xijing University?
