Chapter 14: Changing Mindset

  The familiar alarm clock rang out, and the four people in dormitory 323 struggled to get up.

  To be honest, in my spare time I think I'm already a very self-disciplined person, but I still feel that getting up early is a very painful thing, requiring a huge amount of willpower.

  The first sentence when getting up every day is to give yourself a boost of energy.

  Today is really a wonderful day...

  Looking out at the continuous rain outside, I couldn't help but feel a pang of heartache for my own self-deception.

  "Huh? Why is it raining? I hate rain the most."

  "That's right, it's not convenient at all."

  "Carrying an umbrella is really annoying."

  It's great, and another three people who hate rain just like me, suddenly feel that self-deception is not so hard to accept.

  Because of the rain, a few idle people arrived at the classroom just before class started, and the teacher was already seated in the classroom.

  Familiar scene, familiar beginning.

  "Ah, you've arrived?" Professor Sun took a sip of water and beckoned them over.

  "It seems like the boys in your class still have room for improvement, I left you guys some space today."

  Xian Yu and a few others walked to the front row under the gaze of all the male students, and as soon as they put down their things, Professor Sun smiled and said: "Xian Yu, right? Don't sit down either, it's too much trouble to get up again. Go do the problem on the blackboard."

  She knew it would be like this!

  Three down five minus two, the answer is settled, and with a casual pat, the chalk dust on his hands was gone without leaving a single speck.

  Professor Sun's mouth twitched slightly.

  What was that expression on this little girl's face? Why did he read out a message that I'm very helpless, don't force me?

  Looked at the blackboard, great, got it right again! This time it's a math department junior question type!

  "I said you're so good at math, why don't you consider switching to a math major?"

  Professor Sun was somewhat moved.

  Although there are many geniuses in Q, it is still rare for freshmen to easily solve problems that seniors can't, let alone across different majors.

  "No, no, I've already made up my mind to dedicate the rest of my life to our country and shine with passion for our nation's undertakings."

  Seeing the determined look on his face, Professor Sun thought for a moment and then gave up.

  It wasn't until half a month later that he received an idle application for exemption from listening, and the reason was that when he took a minor in history, at that moment he felt deeply deceived. Which point is their mathematics department not as good as history?

  But at this time, he only felt that the girl in front of him had a higher awareness than ordinary people, and her whole body seemed to be radiating a patriotic glow. Nowadays, young people like Xianyu who love their country and party are not many, and he was quite moved.

  Seeing Professor Sun's emotional face, Xian Yu didn't quite understand what this old man was thinking, she just said it casually, but this excuse wouldn't work, she could change to another one, did he have to be so excited?

  "Alright, since you've made up your mind, I won't force you to stay. Teacher wishes you all the best in your future endeavors in our country." Professor Sun said as he patted her shoulder encouragingly.

  It's true, but before the application for exemption from attendance was approved, he still had to go to class every time and do exercises, and the questions got harder and harder each time, so much so that Professor Sun even regretted agreeing too readily at first, thinking that this person was born to study mathematics.

  Time flies quickly, and every day I'm just running back and forth between the library, classroom, and dormitory. Before you know it, the weekend has already arrived.

  As it was her old major, in just one short week, she self-studied all the knowledge about mechanical engineering that she had learned during her university days. She gained a deep understanding of what stage the current research on mechanical engineering has reached in the world today.

  It's really... backward.

  In an era where interstellar travel is common and long-distance wormhole crossings are routine, the technological development of Earth can only be said to be in its infancy.

  At this young age, it's really difficult for her to come up with something that can drive the times forward without being too ahead of her time and ending up like a sprout that's been helped to grow. This isn't the kind of pressure she should be bearing at her age! It's just too exhausting.

  Saturday was another sunny day, which greatly improved her mood. She hoped that Professor Qian's grandson wasn't a naughty child, or else she feared she wouldn't be able to bear destroying the flowers of the motherland.

  It's already deep autumn, and many leaves have fallen on the tree-lined path in school. Many girls are taking selfies under the fallen leaves, and there are also some young couples walking hand in hand.

  Xianyu took out her mobile phone and called Professor Qian, previously only mentioning that she would go to his place for tutoring on the weekend, without specifying a particular time. She had no choice but to choose 9 o'clock in the morning, which was neither too early nor too late.

  The phone was answered after just a few rings.

  "Hello, is this Teacher Qian? This is Xianyu."

  "Oh, I'm so free, look at my memory, giving you a supplementary lesson? Where are you? I'll come pick you up."

  Just as he received the phone call, Qian He remembered that Yiyu was supposed to come and help his grandson with his studies. This week has been really busy for him, but the diagram that Yiyu drew earlier had given him a lot of inspiration. He went back and perfected it, then took it to his graduate students to make a model. The model was just made yesterday, and he was in the midst of planning a simulation experiment.

  After reporting her location, she sat on the long bench under the tree-lined path to wait for Professor Qian to pick her up. Watching these students taking photos, kissing, or stopping in their tracks, her mood became more and more pleasant.

  It seems that this time's crossing over wasn't completely without gain either.

  In her previous life, she had devoted herself to the country's scientific research career since college, on the one hand for wealth and fame, on the other hand because she was used to making scientific research her whole life. In this process, she gradually lost herself, even though she had become wealthy, she never enjoyed the life she yearned for before becoming wealthy.

  But in this life, she was influenced by her lively and cheerful roommates or the unfamiliar environment gave her the opportunity to think about her life, anyway, her mindset had undergone a huge change.

  Although she is now a cannon fodder in a rebirth novel, in this life, she must grasp it herself. Becoming rich and wealthy is still her goal, but scientific research cannot be the theme song of her new life. She wants to study history, understand literature, eat all kinds of delicious food, travel everywhere, and see the beauty of this world.

  In just over ten minutes, the atmosphere had undergone a dramatic change. When Qian He arrived, he felt as if the girl in front of him was a different person. She was still calm and composed, but her smile was brighter and more radiant, and she exuded a youthful energy and vitality that was fitting for someone of her age. Gone was the somewhat melancholic air that had surrounded her earlier.

  The young girl has spirit, which is a good thing; Qian He didn't probe further.

  "Have you waited for long? Have you had breakfast? If not, let's go have breakfast first."

  He also remembered the previous post on his friend circle, the little girl was an orphan with poor economic conditions, if she went to tutor his grandson on an empty stomach, that would be his fault.

  "Don't worry, I'll eat first and then call you."

  After coming to this world, it seems that the people around me are all very kind? It's completely unlike the depiction in books of being full of unreasonable and bloody schemes.

  It seems that the friend beside the heroine is quite unreasonable, and the male lead hasn't met her yet. It appears that as long as she keeps a distance from the male and female leads, her world is filled with truth, goodness, and beauty!
