Chapter 173: Chapter 173: Continue Further Education

Tang Yuxin opened the insulated lunchbox placed on the table.

In an instant, a mouth-watering fragrance spread all around.

Stir-fried greens, braised fish, and soup.

This arrangement might seem simple, but the presentation and aroma of the food made everyone nearby unable to resist stealing glances.

"Wow, I’ve heard about it before, but Tang Yuxin, you’ve always eaten alone in your office, so I’ve never seen it. Xiao Fei, your cooking really is amazing."

"These stir-fried vegetables, the color, smell, and taste are all perfect. Just looking at them makes me hungry."

"Teacher Tang is lucky to have such good food."

"Alright, alright, let’s not crowd around them and bother the youngsters."

"Hahahaha..."

A group of older professors gradually dispersed.

Tang Yuxin had just picked up her chopsticks when she noticed Jiang Yu looking at her eagerly from the side.

"Want some?"

Jiang Yu nodded repeatedly like a chicken pecking at grain.

Tang Yuxin curled her lips into a smile but didn’t share any with Jiang Yu. Instead, she looked up at Xiao Fei and asked, "Honey, have you eaten lunch yet?"

"Not yet."

So Tang Yuxin gave Jiang Yu an apologetic look.

"Sorry, my husband hasn’t eaten yet."

"I was going to share some with you, but now there’s nothing left to share."

Jiang Yu instantly deflated, lowering her head to slurp her noodles.

But Tang Yuxin went even further.

"Honey, come on, ah..."

"Honey, try this!"

"Mmm... the meat..."

"No, Er Bao, you can’t eat this yet. You’re still too young to chew it."

"Uh-huh..."

Jiang Yu tried her best to reduce her presence.

But what happened next was even more outrageous!

"Honey, I’m full. You eat the rest."

"Eh? Really? But you didn’t eat lunch, and you’ve only had a little just now."

"If I eat more, then there won’t be enough for you. Missing one meal won’t hurt me."

"No... you must eat too, honey."

Jiang Yu: "Enough already!"

"Why are you doing this to me?"

Tang Yuxin and Xiao Fei looked at her at the same time.

Both raised their eyebrows.

At the same time, they said, "Why are you still here?"

A stunned Jiang Yu looked as if she had been struck by lightning, unable to recover for a long time.

"Haha... truly a couple..."

"Haha... birds of a feather flock together... You two are ruthless!"

"Tang Yuxin, mark my words. When I find a boyfriend, I’m going to flaunt our love in front of you every day!"

"Alright."

Tang Yuxin responded lightly, "We’ll see who’s better at it, then."

Da Bao tugged on Xiao Fei’s clothes and asked in a soft voice, "Daddy...?"

"What is it, Da Bao? You don’t know what’s going on, do you?"

Da Bao nodded.

Xiao Fei pointed at Jiang Yu and Tang Yuxin, then said seriously, "Remember, Da Bao, humans are a species that love to hurt each other foolishly."

Da Bao: "???"

After Tang Yuxin finished eating, Xiao Fei took the insulated lunchbox, held onto their three children, and walked leisurely toward the parking lot with Tang Yuxin.

"How’s work been lately?"

"Pretty good."

Tang Yuxin tucked her long hair behind her ear and said, "Honey, I remember you once mentioned that you planned to pursue further studies for your master’s and Ph.D.?"

"I don’t have much going on, and the kids are growing up bit by bit. I’ll have more and more free time. Why do you ask?"

"Oh, nothing, really."

Tang Yuxin smiled.

"It’s just... it’s already November, and soon it’ll be December."

"Before we know it, it’ll be winter break. After the break, it’ll be your last semester of senior year. Have you thought about which advisor you want to work under?"

Xiao Fei lightly flicked Tang Yuxin’s forehead.

"If I could, I’d choose you. But sadly, you’re just a lecturer and don’t have the qualifications to supervise graduate students yet."

"Hmph..."

Tang Yuxin covered her forehead, pouting discontentedly.

"It’s the tenure requirement, isn’t it?"

"I’ve met all the other qualifications, but I haven’t been employed for two full years, so I can’t be promoted from lecturer to associate professor yet. Only after becoming an associate professor will I qualify for a professorship."

"But I believe I’ll definitely become a professor someday!"

"Then I’ll start calling you Professor Tang early, hahaha..."

"Honey, you’re making fun of me!"

Tang Yuxin gently smacked Xiao Fei’s arm, casting him a playful glare.

But this little scene just happened to be witnessed by some passing students.

The normally icy and austere Tang Yuxin actually had such an adorable side to her—it was so surprising that the mental shock left the students stunned in place.

Once they recovered from their surprise, admiration and respect for Xiao Fei, their senior, surged in waves.

This was truly a skill...!

"To be honest, honey, you really should think this through carefully."

Tang Yuxin brought the conversation back on topic.

Xiao Fei gave it some thought. It was indeed time he considered these matters, as his last semester of senior year was fast approaching.

But there was an even more critical question.

"Honey, which field do you think I should pursue?"

"Huh?"

Tang Yuxin blinked her eyes in confusion.

"Are you considering switching fields for grad school?"

"Such a move would be extremely challenging!"

Given Xiao Fei’s major in Electronic Information Engineering, Tang Yuxin naturally assumed he would continue advancing in that area.

"I kind of want to give it a try."

Ever since consuming the Cleansing Marrow Pill, Xiao Fei hadn’t fully understood the extent to which his intelligence and learning capabilities had improved.

At least as far as undergraduate studies were concerned, the material posed no difficulty for him anymore.

He had no lack of anything at the moment—with a wife, kids, and enough money to last a lifetime. Why not take on challenges in this area?

Perhaps... even try multiple fields simultaneously?

Unfortunately, graduate exams only allowed candidates to apply for one major per round.

If he wanted a second or even third degree, he’d have to wait until he finished his first graduate program and apply again during that period.

For now, the most renowned programs at his university seemed to be Mathematics and Physics.

Tang Yuxin was unaware of Xiao Fei’s thoughts. If she knew, she would probably touch his forehead to check if he was feverish.

"Honey, what do you think about me joining either the Physics Department or the Applied Physics Department?"

"Huh?"

Xiao Fei pointed to Da Bao.

"I’ve noticed something. This kid seems to be very interested in science."

"Especially subjects like aerospace and astronomy. Today, I even found him at home watching documentaries about the universe."

"So... honey, you’re not seriously thinking about changing fields just because of that, are you? Da Bao is so young; he might just be watching randomly!"

Tang Yuxin laughed, amused by Xiao Fei.

Xiao Fei, however, wasn’t joking.

He wasn’t speaking lightly.

Looking at Da Bao waddling beside them, Xiao Fei silently made up his mind...

If Da Bao truly had a dream of flying into space, then as his father, Xiao Fei would do everything in his power to help him achieve it.
