After hanging up the phone, Tan Rou went home to sleep. She was used to taking a nap in the afternoon. Even when she was in university and her classes were reduced, this habit did not change.
She slept soundly, but some people didnât fall asleep at noon. Even when it was time for work in the afternoon, Principal Zhang Guo still couldnât understand why his student hung up on him.
After thinking about it, Zhang Guo felt that he was not sincere enough. He only made a phone call and did not personally invite them, which was why she hung up on him.
Moreover, he was also clear about Tan Ronâs identity. A young lady from an aristocratic family like her must have a temper, so Zhang Guo decided to put down his airs as a principal and personally invite her. It wasnât because Tan Ronâs family was prominent, but because Zhang Guo really cherished talents. Otherwise, he wouldnât have invited Tan Rou to join the schoolâs physics research team.
After getting Tan Ronâs class schedule from the counselor, Zhang Guo was calculating when to go to Tan Rou. Seeing that Tan Rou had no classes in the afternoon, Zhang Guo went to Tan Rou at the time of the first two classes, hoping to recruit this outstanding talent as soon as possible.
Tan Rou had just finished class and was about to go shopping with Li Li and the others when a teacher with a square face suddenly appeared in front of them. The teacher had a l<ind smile on his face.
âStudent Tan Rou, right?â Zhang Guo had already seen Tan Ronâs photo in advance. It was impossible for him not to pay attention to the only student who had entered their school with full marks. âIâm Principal Zhang of Capital University. Is it convenient for you to talk to me?â
Tan Rou recognized him as soon as he arrived in front of her. He was indeed the principal of Capital University. However, Tan Rou had only met him twice and was not very familiar with his voice.
âPrincipal Zhang, why are you looking for our Rourou?â Li Li and the others asked worriedly. âCanât we talk here?â
Principal Zhang looked at the freshmen. They were all very outstanding students, but they were not as good as Tan Rou. Perhaps after they graduated from university, he would send them invitations to join the research team.
Zhang Guo stammered, âI just have some things to discuss with Tan Rou. You donât have to be nervous. Besides, this is a school and Iâm the principal. What bad things can I do?â
Li Li wanted to say something, but Tan Rou held her shoulder. âWait for me at the school supermarket. Iâll look for you after Iâm done. If it takes too long, Iâll send you a message to ask you to go back first.â
âRourou, if you notice anything wrong, call us immediately,â Li Li warned.
Tan Rou smiled. âI got it. You guys go ahead!â
Li Li and Tian Tian turned around and left. Although they knew that the principal wouldnât do anything to Tan Rou, they were still worried. They were worried that the principal of the new school would assign tasks to Tan Rou again.
âI remember these students were your high school classmates, right?â Zhang Guo said with emotion. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âYou guys have a good relationship. They value you very much.â
Tan Rou smiled. âThe principal is really well-informed. You must have investigated thoroughly to know that they are my high school classmates.â
Zhang Guo smiled helplessly. âTan Rou, you really donât have to be nervous. Iâm here for no other reason. I just want to invite you to join our schoolâs physics research group.â
âIâm not nervous. I just donât like people investigating me.â Tan Rou replied.
The smile on Zhang Guoâs face froze. This girl was only eighteen years old. How could she speak in such a mature manner? He did not feel like a freshman who had just entered university. Instead, he felt like a person who had experienced decades of vicissitudes.
âI only did it to understand you better.â Zhang Guo changed the topic.
âI wonder if Student Tan Rou is interested in the physics research group I mentioned? If youâre interested, Iâll bring you there now. As long as you can join, you can use the resources in the laboratory.â
Tan Rou raised her eyebrows and said nonchalantly, âSir, since youâve investigated me, you should know that 1 donât care about this little bit of resources, right?â
How could Zhang Guo not know about Tan Ronâs situation? Her family was rich. She wouldnât even be interested in the physics laboratories of all the universities in the country, let alone the physics laboratory at Capital University..
