Chapter 827: Handsome People Problems

[Even though the thesis did not present any groundbreaking results, the methods used have a certain degree of novelty. When it comes to research on Riemann’s hypothesis, the Odlyzko–Schönhage algorithm method is worth further exploration.

[Thesis approved.]

“I don’t think it has any novelty at all…” Molina said. She placed the reviewer’s comments on the table and sighed. She said, “I’m close to giving up on proving the non-trivial zero critical line points… Maybe Professor Atiyah was right. We should choose an easier method… Vera? Are you listening to me?”

Vera was slightly blushing. She looked at Molina and came out of her daydream. Her blue eyes looked to the side as she spoke.

“Oh… I’m listening, thesis approved? Congratulations…”

“Stop lying, you’re thinking about him, aren’t you?!”

Molina reached out her hand and lifted Vera’s chin with a smile. Vera slapped her hand away.

“Don’t…”

Vera stared at Molina with an unhappy look.

“Haha, I’m sorry, I just couldn’t help it.” Molina looked at Vera and sighed. She then said, “Just give up now.”

“…?”

Vera didn’t understand.

Molina looked at her and said, “Don’t you get it? He and I are the same type of people.”

The room suddenly went quiet.

Molina suddenly realized Vera could have misinterpreted what she had said. She waved her hand and tried to explain.

“Hey, don’t look at me like that, that’s not what I meant…”

Vera took half a step back as Molina tried to explain, “I’m just saying that he’s not emotionally available, haven’t you noticed? Has he ever been interested in any woman before?”

Vera bit her lip and didn’t say anything.

“Exactly!” Molina scratched her head and said, “I don’t know if I should say this, but even if you guys become a thing, I don’t think you’ll be happy.”

Vera asked, “Why?”

“Don’t know,” Molina shrugged and said, “I feel like, if I married that man, our marriage would be boring.”

Ever since Luo Wenxuan returned to China, Lu Zhou’s office had become much more lively.

Even though this guy had his own office in the physics department, he would often come to hang out at Lu Zhou’s office.

Anyone with two brain cells knew that Luo Wenxuan didn’t come here because of Lu Zhou.

Speaking of which, Lu Zhou was actually quite astonished. He thought Luo Wenxuan would be over Assistant Kong in a month or two. Now that it had been almost a year, the man was still chasing after her.

What was more interesting was that, even though he was trying his best, the relationship between the two was more distant than ever.

Lu Zhou wasn’t interested in other people’s personal matters, so he left this aside.

After all, his office had plenty of coffee, and discussing physics problems with this guy was one of Lu Zhou’s ways to kill time.

The days quickly passed by. It was soon November. Jinling City began to cool down. A gray coat and blue jeans were part of Lu Zhou’s daily outfit.

According to his past experiences, this way of dressing made him stand out the least on campus. He could at least eat his lunch in peace, without people staring at him.

However, he had underestimated some people’s determination.

During lunchtime, Lu Zhou went to the cafeteria as usual. He ordered a bowl of barbecued meat on rice and sat down at a quiet corner.

The moment he lifted his chopsticks, someone sat down across from him.

“I finally found you… Are you hiding from me?”

Lu Zhou looked at Luo Wenxuan, and he was a bit muddled. Lu Zhou then shook his head.

“Nope.”

Luo Wenxuan: “Help a brother out.”

Lu Zhou took a sip of his seaweed soup and said, “No, thanks.”

Luo Wenxuan said, “What?! Aren’t you going to ask me what it’s about?”

Lu Zhou grabbed a piece of barbecued meat and stuffed it into his mouth. He spoke while chewing.

“I’m guessing it’s not something important. If it is, you would have told me in my office. Try to solve it yourself, and don’t drag me into this.”

Luo Wenxuan placed his hands together like he was praying.

“Please, just this once, I don’t need much, I just need a chance.”

Lu Zhou: “Like what?”

Luo Wenxuan smiled mischievously and said, “Like… Maybe arrange a group date or something?”

Lu Zhou: “… No.”

Luo Wenxuan took a deep breath and asked in a sincere way.

“Come on man, don’t do this, I’m being serious. I’m not getting younger! I’ll be single forever if I don’t marry now.”

Lu Zhou rolled his eyes and said, “Why did you wait until now then?”

Luo Wenxuan sighed.

“I was partying when I was younger.”

“Get lost.”

“Ok,” Luo Wenxuan said, “I don’t care if you believe me or not, but I’m being serious. I feel like I’m in love, and if I miss my chance, I’ll regret it for the rest of my life…”

Lu Zhou sighed and put his chopsticks on the table.

Even though Lu Zhou didn’t want to be involved in other people’s emotional problems, he wanted this guy to start focusing on his work again. Therefore, Lu Zhou gave him a life lesson…

“You don’t get girls by chasing them.”

Luo Wenxuan paused for a second. He was muddled.

“… Then how am I supposed to get them?”

Lu Zhou said, “By attraction.”

“…”

The table went silent.

Lu Zhou hesitated for a little.

He felt like he was correct. The feeling of attraction couldn’t be forced.

Even animals would know that.

But honestly, for a handsome guy like him, this wasn’t a problem.

Luo Wenxuan raised his hand and asked, “Can I ask a question?”

Lu Zhou: “… It sounds like you shouldn’t ask me that question.”
