When Chen Yushan said to have a drink, she obviously did not mean alcohol.
The cafe in front of the school.
The two ordered a mocha and a cappuccino respectively and sat by the window.
"Why did you suddenly come back?"
Chen Yushan said nonchalantly, "Because it's summer vacation. Where else would I go?"
Speaking of which, do graduate students have summer vacations?
Lu Zhou asked, "Your boss didn't bring you on the project?"
Chen Yushan held her chin and sighed. She then said, "Sigh, this is what it's like to study under an academician. I don't even see him, so I have to rely on myself."
Lu Zhou smiled and said, "What a coincidence, I'm also studying under an academician … But I feel like I've been living a fulfilling life for the past six months."
Academician Lu was quite nice to him. Not only did he bring him to Switzerland, but he also accumulated a lot of valuable experience and connections during his time at CERN.
If he did not have this internship experience at CERN, he would not have discovered the 750 GeV anomaly, he would not have been featured in Nature Weekly, and he would not have worked with Professor Frank on this trans-Pacific project.
"Maybe it's up to the boss … Let's not talk about this," said Chen Yushan as she sighed. She suddenly remembered something and said excitedly, "Oh yeah, I heard from Meng Qi that you're going to Princeton next year?"
Lu Zhou nodded and said, "Yeah, I'll get my diploma by next summer. Then, according to the school's arrangement, I'll go to Princeton to study for a PhD."
"Wow," said Chen Yushan as she stared at Lu Zhou for a while. She then said, "Hey, Chen Yushan, you're putting a lot of pressure on me. If this trend continues, wouldn't I have to call you senior by this time next year? "
Lu Zhou was speechless and said, "You just realized?"
"Chen Yushan, Chen Yushan."
Chen Yushan called him a few times with a serious look on her face, but she didn't continue to speak. Lu Zhou was taken aback and asked, "… What's wrong?"
"It's nothing." Chen Yushan shook her head and smiled shyly. "I just want to take this opportunity to say a few more times. Otherwise, there won't be a chance in the future."
After holding it in for so long, Lu Zhou finally couldn't help but complain, "I'm also a first-year postgraduate student now! You've already lost your chance. "
As if realizing this, Chen Yushan's expression was slightly awkward. She quickly laughed and said, "You're a boy, don't be so stingy. You're so narrow-minded. Be careful that you won't be able to find a girlfriend … "
Halfway through her sentence, she realized that she was in no position to complain since she was also a single dog. She forcefully changed the topic and said, "Speaking of which, did you pass the TOEFL?"
Lu Zhou: "I passed it before I went to Princeton at the beginning of the year."
Chen Yushan seemed to think that English was her strong point, so she suddenly became interested and asked, "What's your score?"
Lu Zhou thought for a bit and replied, "I think it's 118."
When Chen Yushan heard this score, she went silent for a while. She then gently sighed and said, "Not bad, little bro … Is there really a subject that you're not good at?"
Lu Zhou smiled awkwardly and said, "There is, but I'm not good at it … Oh yeah, did you get an offer from the University of Pennsylvania?"
Chen Yushan nodded and said, "I got it, I'll be there at the end of the year."
Lu Zhou couldn't believe it, so he asked, "Wharton School of Business?"
Chen Yushan smirked and said, "Of course!"
F * ck me, she actually got it!
This time, it was Lu Zhou's turn to be surprised.
The Wharton School of Business at the University of Pennsylvania was known as the birthplace of the modern MBA. It was undoubtedly the number one business school in the United States, and it was ranked in the top three in the world. The MBA graduates from there would be highly sought after by major investment banks even if they went to Wall Street.
Although the acceptance rate there wasn't as high as Princeton, it was still not easy to get an offer from there!
Also, even if it was 1 + 2, she would at least have to study at Yan University for a year, right? She went to Yan University for her master's. According to the usual practice, after finding a supervisor, she would go directly to Yan University in the second semester of her senior year. However, strictly speaking, she would only be officially enrolled after September.
If she went to the University of Pennsylvania at the end of the year, it would mean that she would only be studying at Yan University for half a year.
This was not 1 + 2, it was 0.5 + 2.
Would a normal boss let someone go?
In the past, he had always doubted Chen Yushan's identity as a genius, and he thought she was bragging. Now, he finally believed it.
This guy was really a bookworm.
Although she was a bit bad at math …
It was getting late, so the two of them ate dinner together.
In the beginning, Lu Zhou proposed to split the bill, but Chen Yushan insisted on treating him. She even used her status as a senior to pressure him, so he didn't refuse. Anyway, it wasn't like they would never see each other again. He could just treat her next time.
From their conversation, he learned that she didn't come back to see him. Instead, she came back to clean up the dorm.
The new semester was about to begin. If she didn't take the things from the dorm, the dorm management would get rid of them. The last time she went to Yan University, she left in a hurry. She left some valuable things here. This time, she came back to deal with the things in the dorm.
As for visiting her old friend, it was just along the way.
After dinner, the two of them walked to the school gate.
Suddenly, Lu Zhou thought of something and asked, "Speaking of which, how did you know I was in the library?"
When Chen Yushan heard this question, she said matter-of-factly, "Do you even need to ask? Other than the library, where else would you be? "
Lu Zhou: "…"
Why does it sound like I'm living in the library?
After walking for a while, they almost reached their destination. If they walked any further, they would be in the male dorm.
The two of them were just friends. They weren't close enough to visit each other, especially at this time.
Chen Yushan cleared her throat and jumped under a street light. She put her hands behind her back and looked at Lu Zhou. She smiled and said, "Then, see you next year."
Lu Zhou was about to say goodbye when he realized that this was a bit strange. He asked, "Next year?"
Chen Yushan blinked and said, "Yeah, aren't you going to Princeton next year?"
Lu Zhou said, "That's right … But Princeton is in New Jersey, not Pennsylvania."
Chen Yushan tilted her head and said, "But the University of Pennsylvania is in Philadelphia. I remember that Philadelphia is quite close to Princeton. When you went to Princeton, didn't you get off the plane in Philadelphia? "
F * ck!
Lu Zhou suddenly realized that it wasn't just politics that he wasn't good at. Geography was also a problem.
When he went to Princeton, he got off the plane in Philadelphia.
If the University of Pennsylvania was in Philadelphia, then it was not just close, it was right next to Philadelphia.
