He had casually put it inside when Zuo Qiurong handed it to him last time.

The experimental equipment was surely correct, and he had also asked Zuo Qiurong and Brother Ye yesterday to confirm that the experiment outside was Qin Ran’s.

It was such a high data fluctuation.

Even Scholar Liao was shocked.

But he didn’t see her at all yesterday and only let her enter the laboratory this morning to help him do several experiments. Her movements were calm, and although she was unclear about a few things, she immediately reacted after small reminders from him.

Thinking of this, he pulled out the document from inside the brown portfolio.

Every year, new member files of the Physics laboratory would be recorded, including the basis of the previous registrations, assessments, and results from the laboratory. Thus, the professors of each laboratory and the Research Institute could evaluate the potential of these new students.

These new members were indeed all talented geniuses from Beijing University and University A, as Zuo Qiurong thought previously. But they were much worse than the research madmen in the laboratory and the Research Institute.

Every year, only one or two new members of the laboratory were outstanding enough to be selected by a teacher in the major laboratories.

But these one or two people had been trained by professors or researchers previously before being selected to enter the laboratory.

For example, Song Luting had been picked by a researcher of the Research Institute in advance in the first half of the year, before he participated in the January training.

Since Qin Ran’s hands-on ability was a little beyond Scholar Liao’s expectations, he wanted to see her laboratory evaluation.

He turned to the first page and read the general admission information.

Qin Ran.

Freshman.

Major: Automation and Nuclear Engineering.

A freshman?

She had gotten into the laboratory even with double majors.

Turning the first page, Scholar Liao’s face finally cracked in astonishment, which had remained undulated throughout the experiment.

This information was simply too shocking for him.

A freshman got into the laboratory…

What about her assessment?

He continued to flip the pages.

Registration qualifications: 10 points

Physics laboratory assessment, Written Exam: 300.

Physics laboratory assessment test: 100.

Comprehensive laboratory evaluation: 10.

The comprehensive evaluation of the laboratory had full marks of 10. Because the comprehensive manual evaluation involved subjective questions unless some students were extremely outstanding that the person-in-charge of the laboratory couldn’t help marveling, it was extremely rare to score full marks…

If she had gotten a full mark of 100, she must have done the S-level experiment…

The qualifications points evaluation for her double majors were also full marks…

Feeling faintly hot, Scholar Liao turned on the computer in front of him, not yet reacting to the situation.

He looked down at the information in his hand, startled.

It never occurred to him that this new member who came to his laboratory had scored full marks…

“Scholar Liao?” Brother Ye took a printed copy of the underground reactor report and handed it to him.

Scholar Liao didn’t respond to his call.

He only reacted after a long while.

“Xiao Ye, what do you think of your junior?” Scholar Liao pushed his glasses.

Stunned, Brother Ye said, “She’s pretty good at hands-on experiments.”

He had watched her do a reactor experiment yesterday.

Scholar Liao sat down and slightly nodded.

At noon.

In Yunjin District.

Standing out the gate, Qin Yu held her phone and talked to Ning Qing.

On the other end of the phone, Ning Qing’s voice was complicated and mixed with inexplicable emotions. “Your Father is a carp jumping through the dragon gates…”

Qin Yu felt stabbed in the heart, especially when she heard of the Qin family’s prestige.

She looked up at the community in front of her. Although Yunjin Community wasn’t as good as Ting Lan, it was still a veritable wealthy community, with properties worth tens of millions of yuan. She laughed at herself. “No wonder all my sister wears are custom-made clothes. Has Father forgotten he has another daughter?”

Her grip tightened, and her hands turned pale.

Those without identity records verified by the owner couldn’t enter Yunjin Community at will, so she waited in place.

Wrapped in a coat, she waited for a long time before Qin Hanqiu came back with two big bags of vegetables. He wore a well-cut down jacket, and other than his demeanor being a little stiff, everything else was a world of difference.

If it weren’t for his familiar face, she wouldn’t even believe it was him.

“Dad…” Qin Yu pulled off her scarf and took a step forward.

Her familiar voice sounded.

Qin Hanqiu glanced forward and immediately saw her standing at the gates.

He paused, thought of something, and ran into the community with a drastic change of expression.

Shocked, the security guard thought he had met a robber and came out with an electric baton.

Outside, Qin Yu, who was ready to speak, stared at Qin Hanqiu’s back, and only realized after a long time… Qin Hanqiu simply didn’t want to see her…

After talking to Ning Qing, she originally was reluctant to come to see Qin Hanqiu, but after seeing him living in such a high-end apartment… and how Qin Ran was so popular in school and on the Internet…

Her heart was pounded with regret.

If she had known that her father who previously moved bricks had such a fate waiting for him, she would never have treated him as such in Yun Cheng.

She stood by the roadside, her face pale.

“Screech—”

A car stopped beside her, and the co-pilot’s window lowered to reveal the face of a middle-aged man. “Our Fourth Master wants to see you.”

At 2 pm, Qin Ran returned to the laboratory with a backpack after checking the materials she wanted to quote in the library.

Scholar Liao was still doing experiments in the innermost laboratory.

Taking out her computer and scanning the finished thesis from beginning to end, Qin Ran then organized the charts and designed them before logging into her mailbox. She clicked on it and sent it according to the submission email.

“Junior sister.” Behind her, Brother Ye came over with a cup. “You’re doing a paper?”

“Yes, a thesis.” She closed the submission page.

She was too fast, or Brother Ye would have seen the familiar mailbox of the SCI Physics journal.

“You only came, and you’re already writing a research paper.” Brother Ye retracted his gaze and smiled. “What research is it on?”

“The reactor.” She waited for the journal to review her paper and closed the paper interface with a relaxed expression.

Brother Ye nodded and looked at Scholar Liao. “Scholar Liao wants you to go over.”

Qin Ran kept her books and followed Brother Ye in.

Inside, Scholar Liao proceeded to assign afternoon tasks to them. He pointed to the current magnetic field debugger. “Calculate the best magnetic field according to my simulation requirements.”

Previously, Zuo Qiurong and Brother Ye were responsible for this kind of work.

Zuo Qiurong calculated the preliminary data, while Brother Ye helped Scholar Liao adjust the magnetic field accordingly.

But today, Qin Ran was also present. Zuo Qiurong pursed her lips and silently glanced at her. She was much quieter and solemn than before as she directly calculated the data on her computer.

Qin Ran wasn’t as anxious. She stood on Brother Ye’s experimental platform and watched him do the experiment for two hours before going to calculate the magnetic field and current.

After two hours, at a little over 6 pm.

Qin Ran was composing a simulation map while testing the best data.

Her phone lit up with a message from Cheng Juan asking when she was leaving today.

She thought about it and told him 10 minutes.

10 minutes later.

She finished calculating the data, printed it out, and passed it to Brother Ye with cold fingertips.

Beside him, Zuo Qiurong was still calculating the cumbersome experimental data and didn’t notice this scene.

Intensely staring at the pile of magnetic fields and about to collapse, Brother Ye was stunned to see Qin Ran pass him the data. Since Scholar Liao was still busy beside him and Zuo Qiurong was still calculating the data, he lowered his voice and said in surprise, “You’re done?”

Qin Ran nodded.

He took a look at it. “So fast?”

After bidding farewell to him, Qin Ran packed her bags and then went to the changing room.

She went out.

Cheng Juan’s car was stopped not far from the Physics laboratory, and he was standing by the side, wearing a black cashmere coat that was directly opened, revealing the black shirt inside. The silver double-breasted button reflected cold light.

He was holding his phone and seemed to be calling someone.

But when he saw her approaching, he said a few more words and then hung up.

“What stupid experiment makes you leave at 6 pm every day?” He opened the car door for her and then took the keys.

Propping her chin up, Qin Ran unhurriedly said, “I’ve finished writing my thesis and am waiting for its review.”

Principal Xu’s ICNE international competition was the top priority following that.

She had studied for two days during the weekend and had some ideas for this research, but… She didn’t know if Principal Xu would agree for her teammates to be composed entirely of freshmen…

In the laboratory.

An hour after Qin Ran left, Zuo Qiurong calculated her ideal answer.

“You’re done?” The laboratory was very large, and Scholar Liao walked over from the other corner as usual.

“I just finished it.” Zuo Qiurong took out her printed paper and walked over to the pile of reactors built by Scholar Liao.

Brother Ye reacted and took out Qin Ran’s paper. “Junior also gave me a copy of the data.”

Scholar Liao glanced at the data in his hands.

Without looking at the data, Zuo Qiurong remained silent and just stood in front of the machine. She adjusted the current and magnetic field density to the data she calculated.
