163: Chapter 163 Outrageous Teacher-Student Relationship

Su Nange was still in the laboratory discussing biological sciences with Professor Xu Zhiran.

From being completely confused and unable to get a word in at the beginning, Su Nange eventually reached a point where he could ask some representative questions to Professor Xu Zhiran.

Professor Xu Zhiran discovered that this brat really wasn't as unreliable as he appeared on the surface.

Both his comprehension and logical thinking were very much on point.

Professor Xu Zhiran also gradually felt that having someone like this—who had their own insights but could also take advice—as an investor...

...might actually be quite good.

Meanwhile, Su Nange also explained his ideals to Professor Xu Zhiran.

Simply put, he wanted to build a super technology company to benefit humanity through science. Of course, Su Nange added that he wasn't a saint.

Benefiting humanity didn't mean he wouldn't seek a return. He wanted to make money and gain status.

After all, men were just after these few things.

Professor Xu Zhiran thought he was a bit of a chuunibyou, but she understood. It was just that Su Nange spoke quite bluntly.

Professor Xu Zhiran gave Su Nange some advice: the path of technology was not an easy one to walk.

Not to mention the massive investment, the risk of failure was more than an average boss could bear.

First of all, not counting the experts' salaries.

Just the high-end equipment in these laboratories alone was a money pit.

Things like nucleic acid extraction instruments, digital PCR machines, cell storage tanks, ultrapure water machines, and so on.

On top of that, AI models needed to be integrated into high-content screening systems, nucleic acid electrophoresis systems, and rapid protein blotting systems to accelerate calculations.

Setting up a state-of-the-art laboratory from scratch would cost at least a hundred million; otherwise, it couldn't even get started.

Therefore, it was simply too difficult to conduct experiments independently without relying on a place like a university.

Su Nange did the math; money wasn't an issue.

He replied, "Then I'll have to trouble Professor Xu to help me make a budget first. Whatever is needed, I'll provide it."

Professor Xu Zhiran agreed.

Without realizing it, the two had chatted for an entire afternoon, and evening had arrived.

Su Nange drove Professor Xu Zhiran to a business-oriented restaurant. After all, these two genius sisters would essentially be his employees in the future.

Su Nange had to treat them to a good meal to show his generosity.

Xu Zhiyi hadn't arrived yet, which made her elder sister, Professor Xu Zhiran, dissatisfied: "This wretched girl has no sense of time at all."

But Xu Zhiyi had already tried her best.

She had gone home to wash her hair, shower, do her makeup, and change her clothes; taking only two hours was already very fast.

So, when Professor Xu Zhiran saw Xu Zhiyi, she was a bit stunned.

Was this exquisitely dressed woman in high heels really the sister she knew?

Did this girl ever wear high heels on a normal day?

When Xu Zhiyi saw Su Nange, she was very enthusiastic.

She actually walked up and was about to give him a hug.

Su Nange didn't dare move—he didn't dare move at all.

He knew in his heart that Xu Zhiyi would be very friendly with him.

But he hadn't expected this teacher to dare make such a gesture right in front of her sister?

Professor Xu Zhiran's expression was a bit sour. To her sister, she wasn't just an older sister; in life, she also took on part of the role of a mother.

Su Nange immediately explained to Professor Xu Zhiran, "Professor Xu, Teacher Xu and I are both mentors and friends. She's not that much older than me anyway."

"We get along quite well."

Fortunately, it seemed Xu Zhiyi just treated Su Nange as an outstanding younger brother.

"Sis, you have no idea. This Nange is our Student Union President. He's excellent, and his math has always been great. It was so easy for me when I was teaching them."

Only then did Professor Xu Zhiran feel relieved. Otherwise, if her sister was involved with her prospective boss, wouldn't it be awkward for her as the sister?

However, only Xu Zhiyi herself knew what she truly thought of Su Nange.

During dinner, Xu Zhiyi and Su Nange had endless topics to talk about.

After all, the two had known each other as teacher and student for four years. Any memory they picked out was full of nostalgia.

As it turned out, the reason Xu Zhiyi favored Su Nange among so many students...

...was that while she was a math prodigy, she had already started to feel a bit burnt out after getting her PhD at twenty-four.

She originally just wanted to study hard, find a good job to support herself, and then show filial piety to her father and sister.

Because her and Professor Xu Zhiran's mother had died in a car accident just a few years after she was born.

So, in this regard, she and Su Nange were quite similar.

After chatting a few times at the university, they found they shared a common bond.

Additionally, Su Nange was a "lopsided" student whose math was top-tier. This earned him even more favor from her, his math teacher.

The key was that this irresponsible teacher was a bit lazy. Later on, she actually had Su Nange help her prepare for classes and write lesson plans.

This resulted in Su Nange running to her dormitory every few days.

This woman would watch dramas and read novels while making Su Nange do the drudgery.

Later, Su Nange had no choice but to come up with a devious plan.

Once during math class, Su Nange didn't listen. He was scribbling furiously in a notebook.

Su Nange also intentionally let Xu Zhiyi notice. Sure enough, Xu Zhiyi walked over and confiscated the notebook from his hand.

Back in her office, Xu Zhiyi thought more and more that something was off. He was usually the most attentive in her class, so why would he suddenly do something else?

So, Xu Zhiyi opened Su Nange's notebook and began to read.

This look was quite a surprise. This kid was actually writing a novel in class!

And it was her favorite urban martial arts style!

Xu Zhiyi read the first few chapters: it was about a boy who lost his mother at a young age, grew up in the Shaolin Temple, mastered the Nine Yang Divine Art, and then returned to the city.

During this time, the youth also gained the support of the Taoist Xiaoyao Sect and even acquired a female celestial swordsman bodyguard who knew the Lingbo Microsteps and the Shifting Stars technique.

Then they discovered that all of this was just the beginning of a conspiracy~

As she read, Xu Zhiyi actually got hooked.

She found a day to quietly return the notebook to Su Nange and asked him to come to her dormitory again.

This time, Xu Zhiyi didn't make Su Nange help her prepare for class.

She prepared for class herself while making Su Nange write the serialization next to her, and she even damn well demanded daily updates!

Su Nange was speechless with grief; he blamed himself for not thinking things through. Although he had achieved his goal of not having to write lesson plans for this young teacher...

...writing a novel every day was also very exhausting! The key was that all his time was spent here—how could he go out on dates with Tingting?

And at that time, Tingting already had a huge problem with this young and beautiful teacher. She once suspected that something might be going on between Su Nange and Xu Zhiyi.

But was Su Nange that kind of person? Of course he wasn't.

It was just that when he saw this scatterbrained female teacher's underwear or stockings not put away in time, he had a slight physical reaction.

So, at the dinner table, when Su Nange suddenly recalled this, his face couldn't help but flush with embarrassment!

Xu Zhiyi, on the other hand, had always been very carefree; she said that even after moving, she still kept the novels Su Nange wrote for her.

She thought they were great and even asked Professor Xu Zhiran if she wanted to read them.

Professor Xu Zhiran naturally refused!

Professor Xu Zhiran felt that these two were simply absurd!

You're a damn teacher, yet you have a student come to your home, and it's not for tutoring.

Instead, you have him write lesson plans and novels for you.

Truly, only her ridiculously absurd sister could do such a thing.

Su Nange was startled. Could those things be shown to Professor Xu Zhiran? Holy crap, wouldn't that Old Woman kill me?

Because later on, to meet the deadline, Su Nange clearly began to let himself go.

There was a plot point about the protagonist's childhood playmate. After being apart for over ten years, they actually became the protagonist's university teacher.

The most ridiculous part was that the protagonist always thought this playmate was a boy when they were little.

It turned out that they were just too young back then to tell the difference between male and female.

Later, "he" became "she" and turned into a great beauty. She was decisively "cooked" by the male lead and added to his harem.

He didn't think much of it at the time; many power fantasies were that ridiculous.

But thinking back now, holy crap, could Xu Zhiyi have misunderstood?

Reviewing it now, it seemed that after those few chapters, the way this beautiful female teacher looked at him became more and more off.

And then look at Xu Zhiyi's outfit today. You're a damn university teacher—is such a short skirt something you should be wearing?

Go back and change it immediately, change all of it!
