Forced to Date a Big Shot

Panda Novel

Initially, no matter how much money was spent on the project and how much trouble it caused, it was only a small matter among the students at Huaxia University. However, now that all the big shots had joined in, this project had already become the focus of the entire country.

There were even some people who interviewed a certain scientific mogul who participated in the project and asked him if they could create a light source machine. That big shot said in a profound manner, “The theory has been completely out, but China is inferior when it comes to the hardware. However, this is already a milestone for our integrated circuits. It’s worth remembering.”

External note: The probability of success is not high, but scientific research is noble and inviolable. The theories that are being created now are enough to be used as stepping stones for future generations.

The scientific experts had the same thoughts. They respected the project, so they came to participate. However, some things could not be crossed in a month or two. They believed that they would definitely succeed in the future, but at least for now, it was impossible.

Li Xuelei found the interview video of Da Niu and passed it to Mr. Li. He said, “Do you see that? Although they were praised so highly, it’s obvious that they’re trying to save their dignity. They spent so much money and couldn’t produce any results. Isn’t it just to create a grand image for themselves? So what if these people provide experience for the later generations? Isn’t it still a money-losing deal now? Dad, we’re businessmen. Don’t tell me that you only want a good reputation and not benefits?”

Mr. Li frowned. “Of course not.”

Li Xuelei heaved a sigh of relief. He was afraid that his father would change his opinion of Li Xuekai because of this. He then smiled and said, “Don’t worry. No matter how amazing a craftsman is, he can’t compare to the precision of a machine!”

…

Half a month later, five “craftsmen,” including Yu Da, were lowering their heads and welding a circuit board.

Beside him, Li Xuekai stood with a worried expression.

In his opinion, this was something that a normal person could not do. However, Xue Xi looked at their boards and said, “According to this speed, we should be able to install the first light source machine tomorrow.”

Li Xuekai: “…”

Actually, he did not think highly of it, but Sister Xi said this and looked as though there was no problem. She would definitely be determined to get it. He should not pour cold water on her.

He just had to think about how to comfort Sister Xi when the equipment was installed tomorrow and they tried mass-producing the chips.

Just as Li Xuekai was thinking this, his phone suddenly rang.

He picked up the call and an old voice came from the other end. “Xiao Kai, do you have time tonight to have a meal with Grandpa?”

Li Xuekai was stunned. His heart warmed as he said, “Okay, Grandpa.”

After hanging up, Li Xuekai stared at the laboratory and his eyes turned moist.

Actually, since he was young, Mr. Li had liked Li Xuelei more. After all, he was the child of his “true love.” Meanwhile, he and his mother were just married.

However, his mother was deeply in love with him. In order to win his heart, she even forced Li Xuekai to study hard since he was young, trying to make Mr. Li transfer his love to them.

When he got first place and Mr. Li really praised him, his mother became even worse.

The word “outstanding” was a halo to others, but to him, it was a method used by his mother to fight for someone’s favor.

He really hated it.

If his family did not include his grandfather, who treated him sincerely, he would have broken down a long time ago.

Grandpa liked him and insisted that he inherit the family assets. However, his father wanted Li Xuelei to join their household. This was their family’s conflict.

Li Xuekai could treat his mother and father coldly, but he could not be ruthless to his grandfather.

After hanging up, he frowned and continued with his work.

Seeing that he seemed to have a lot on his mind, Xue Xi did not speak much. In the laboratory next door, Li Xuelei’s project was about to be completed and could be put into production soon. It was normal for Li Xuekai to be stressed.

She did not know how to comfort others, but others did.

Hence, Xue Xi picked up her phone and called Ji Silin. Brother Silin was really a qualified psychiatrist. Ever since this project was established, it had experienced many hardships. When one’s heart was unstable, it was Brother Silin who was here. Sometimes, after having someone to talk to, only then would everyone calm down.

The call was quickly connected. Ji Silin’s voice was so gentle that it was as though it would never change. “Xixi, what’s wrong?”

Xue Xi said, “Brother Silin, can you chat with Li Xuekai?”

Ji Silin replied, “No problem, but I can’t go over now. There’s an important patient here. I’ll go over after I’m done looking at this patient.”

Xue Xi: “…Okay.”

She originally did not intend to ask who this important patient was, but just as she was about to hang up, she heard Ji Silin’s assistant say, “Dr. Ji, Professor Feng Xingshen is now free. Are you going over now?”

Ji Silin: “Mhm, now…”

Beep, beep, beep.

Xue Xi was stunned when the call ended.

She could not have heard wrongly. The person that the assistant mentioned was indeed Feng Xingshen.

What’s up with Teaches Math? Why did he need Brother Silin to visit him?

Xue Xi suddenly realized that something was amiss.

During the development of the entire project, even professors and teachers who were not in the research field would come over to take a look. They would help if they could, but Feng Xingshen had only recommended Li Fan over and never came again.

She frowned and suddenly placed her phone in her pocket before walking toward Feng Xingshen’s office.

During this period of time, Feng Xingshen had been staying in his office.

When she arrived downstairs, she saw Zhou Hong preparing to go upstairs. His expression was listless. One look and she could tell that he did not have a good rest.

Xue Xi asked, “What has the teacher been doing recently?”

Zhou Hong sighed. “Teacher has a project that he hasn’t completed yet. Recently, he has been working hard to speed up the project. He doesn’t listen to anyone and insists on doing it. Sigh, I don’t even dare to go back to sleep at night. I’m just afraid that no one will find out if Teacher falls inside.”

After saying that, he yawned loudly. The dark circles under his eyes were especially obvious.

Xue Xi nodded and followed him upstairs.

Just as he reached Feng Xingshen’s office, he saw Ji Silin walking out. He did not expect Xue Xi to come over and was stunned. “Xixi, why are you here?”

Xue Xi: “Brother Silin, what’s wrong with the teacher?”

Ji Silin was silent for a moment before saying, “Elder Feng is quite normal.”

Xue Xi walked past him and entered the office.

Ji Silin stopped her. “Xixi, Elder Feng is busy right now and won’t let anyone in.”

Not allowing anyone to enter…

The more it was like this, the more fishy it was!

Xue Xi did not care. She pushed Ji Silin away and barged into Feng Xingshen’s office!
