Chapter 396: Too pretentious!

"So-so."

Ye Fan's answer was quite vague.

Liang Chenglei smiled, already having a general answer in his heart. Didn't even dare to state his scores, clearly not too ideal.

Can't even achieve good results in a hurdle like the college entrance exam, let alone superconductivity, which is countless times more difficult. Truly somewhat wishful thinking!

Ning Xiangtian, who hadn't spoken all along, upon seeing the smile on Liang Chenglei's face, originally wanted to open his mouth to explain, but was stopped by a glance from Ye Fan.

Ye Fan smiled calmly, a burst of confidence emanating from his body, "Professor Liang, no matter how many people superconductivity has stumped, it has nothing to do with me. The experimental results tell me that achieving zero resistance is indeed feasible."

"Having confidence is a good thing, but one cannot be conceited."

Liang Chenglei looked at Ye Fan meaningfully, "Especially young people, must always recognize themselves clearly."

Regarding Liang Chenglei's words carrying a lecturing tone, before Ye Fan could speak, Ning Xiangtian beside him couldn't hold back anymore, said sternly: "Professor Liang, this child might be a bit confident, but he has the capital to be confident."

"Capital?"

Liang Chenglei froze, blurted out: "What capital?"

"Genius List number one!"

Five words stunned Liang Chenglei. For a moment, his expression was somewhat dull.

Regarding the Genius List, he was naturally not unfamiliar.

Simply put, the Genius List was for selecting geniuses for the Academy of Science and Technology, serving as a talent pipeline.

However, he, this Vice President, was engrossed in research all day, hadn't paid attention to this year's Genius List. Precisely because of this, such a big blunder occurred.

Actually, this couldn't be blamed on Liang Chenglei.

Ye Fan's earlier 'so-so' truly led him down the wrong path l.

What relation does Genius List number one have with 'so-so'?

emmm...

"Cough——"

Only after a full ten-plus seconds did Liang Chenglei digest this information, his smile more or less revealing a trace of embarrassment, "Young people being too modest isn't a good thing either. Genius List number one isn't just 'so-so', this is very amazing!"

Although he hadn't paid attention to this year's Genius List, he had also heard about the number of candidates this year.

Nearly ten million!

To obtain first place among ten million candidates must be a genius, a super genius!

But even so, Liang Chenglei still didn't believe Ye Fan could conquer superconductivity.

Disbelief is disbelief, but Ye Fan already possessed the qualification to make Liang Chenglei take him seriously. If Ye Fan didn't have this identity of Genius List number one, then Liang Chenglei fundamentally wouldn't give Ye Fan the chance to demonstrate.

"Professor Liang, you overpraise, just an empty name."

Ye Fan smiled plainly, said: "If you have time today, this kid boldly requests to delay you for a bit of time, please move to the suburban laboratory with me. Whether conquering superconductivity is true or false will naturally come to light (when the water recedes, the stones appear)."

"Good, then let's make a trip."

Liang Chenglei nodded, was just about to stand up.

Ye Fan quickly spoke: "Professor Liang, please wait a moment. You and Uncle chat in the living room for a while first."

After speaking, he turned his head and nodded slightly towards Ning Xiangtian, "Uncle, I'll go call Xiao Xi. Promised yesterday to take her along."

"Mm, tell Xiao Xi to be quick."

"Okay."

After Ye Fan went upstairs, Liang Chenglei picked up the teacup before him and slowly savored it, looking at Ning Xiangtian meaningfully, said with a teasing tone: "Mr. Ning, I finally know why you are willing to spend nearly two hundred million for a junior to do research. This young man's future is limitless!"

"Genius List number one is just barely enough to be my son-in-law."

Ning Xiangtian crossed his legs , his nonchalant posture made Liang Chenglei's brows jump.

Too pretentious!

Noticing the change in Liang Chenglei's expression, Ning Xiangtian felt a burst of secret satisfaction in his heart. Finally managed to show off in front of this old fellow.

But it wasn't enough, today he was determined to show off!

Ning Xiangtian decided to add another strong dose of medicine, spoke lightly and understatedly: "Actually, my little daughter's college entrance exam scores are also not bad."

"Oh?"

Liang Chenglei said with a half-smile: "Mr. Ning, don't tell me your esteemed daughter also entered the Genius List?"

This kind of bullshit, he wouldn't believe it!

The Genius List seemingly has a hundred spots, but there are nearly ten million current year candidates. Comprehensively, one in a hundred thousand!

Such geniuses are hard to find even with a lantern, let alone encountering two at once, and the two are actually a couple?

Even TV dramas wouldn't dare to film it like this!

"Indeed so."

Ning Xiangtian said indifferently: "My little daughter is untalented, reluctantly took second place on the Genius List. Professor Liang, you must be amused ."

"…"

At this moment, Liang Chenglei's expression was extremely brilliant.

If the person sitting opposite him wasn't Ning Xiangtian, he absolutely wouldn't believe this kind of nonsense.

But Ning Xiangtian's identity was laid out here, impossible for him to joke like this.

That is to say...

"Hiss!"

Liang Chenglei couldn't help but suck in a cold breath, his demeanor filled with shock and uncertainty, "Mr. Ning, you wouldn't be pulling my leg ( make fun of), this old man, would you?"

"Of course not."

Ning Xiangtian was secretly pleased in his heart, yet his face was extremely plain, "If Professor Liang doesn't believe, you can check after returning. With your authority, wanting to check the information of Genius List personnel is as simple as can be."

Speaking to here, Liang Chenglei already believed seventy to eighty percent in his heart.

But the more it was like this, the more absurd he felt in his heart...

Too ridiculous!!!

On the other side, Ye Fan came upstairs. When he reached Ning Xi's bedroom door, he was just about to push the door open and enter, but when his hand touched the doorknob, he remembered the embarrassing incident last time, instantly dismissed this idea, raised his hand and knocked.

"Mom, I'm combing my hair, will go eat right away."

The girl's voice came from inside, the words exuding softness. Hearing it made Ye Fan's eyes soften a few degrees, said: "Xiao Xi, it's me."

Next, a rustling sound came from the room. After about half a minute, Ning Xi's voice sounded again, "Gege, come in."

Pushed the door and entered.

As soon as he walked into the room, Ye Fan's gaze was attracted by Ning Xi at the dressing table.

Three thousand black silk strands scattered over her shoulders. From his angle, he could just see Ning Xi's slightly exposed collarbone, her skin whiter than snow. A simple black T-shirt, light blue jeans, very plain attire, yet it displayed the innocence and beauty of a girl in her prime ( flower season young girl) to the fullest.

Especially the soft temperament on Ning Xi, made one fascinated.

No one could refuse such a girl, regardless of gender!

Ning Xi, through the mirror, saw Ye Fan staring blankly at her. A trace of shyness flashed in her eyes, reproached lightly: "Haven't looked enough yet?"

Ye Fan came back to his senses, came behind Ning Xi, his voice deep and powerful, "Can't look enough."

"Smooth talker"

Ning Xi spat lightly, yet the corners of her lips couldn't stop lifting. She tilted her pretty face up, her watery large eyes blinked, "Gege, help me braid a small braid, okay?"

"Okay."

Ye Fan nodded in agreement, his fingers nimbly danced among the black silk strands.

In less than two minutes, an exquisite small braid appeared on Ning Xi's left shoulder, adding even more spiritual charm.

Ye Fan's eyes narrowed, a look of amazement flashing deep within them.

Living together day and night, yet this girl always managed to stun him inadvertently.

Even if the world has three thousand colors, none are like the beauty before the mirror! ( a poetic phrase)
