Chapter 289: Chapter 289 Creating Miracles

After a while.

In Tang Yuxin’s office.

"Wow!"

"Isn’t this the long-lost Handsome Xiao?"

Jiang Yu, who had just returned to the office after lunch, immediately exclaimed loudly upon seeing Xiao Fei sitting and eating with Tang Yuxin.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk. If it weren’t for our Teacher Tang receiving your lovingly-prepared lunches every day, your long absence would have almost made us believe Teacher Tang was single again."

As she spoke, Jiang Yu quickly ran over to sit across from Tang Yuxin and Xiao Fei, scrutinizing Xiao Fei’s face.

"Still as handsome as ever."

"What are you staring at? He’s my husband."

"I’m just looking; I’m not eating."

Jiang Yu grinned, showing her pearly whites. "I have a boyfriend now, you know."

"You’re in a relationship?"

This was the first time Xiao Fei had heard that Jiang Yu had a boyfriend.

Jiang Yu nodded.

"Yeah, we’ve known each other for a few months, and things feel pretty good."

"If there aren’t any major issues, we might get married soon."

"So fast?"

"What choice do I have!?"

Jiang Yu gave Xiao Fei a mock glare.

"During holidays, it’s fine—"

"But once the semester starts, with you not around, I’ll be bombarded every day by your and Teacher Tang’s PDA. If I don’t find someone to marry and unleash my misery on other single folks, I might just wither away, okay?"

Tang Yuxin swallowed the sweet-and-sour pork rib in her mouth and then said to Xiao Fei, "Jiang Yu’s boyfriend doesn’t work at our university. He’s an executive at a company outside of campus, and he’s fairly young."

"I saw him last time when he came over to visit Jiang Yu. He’s quite handsome."

She quickly added, "Of course, not as handsome as my husband."

"Hey, hey, hey, I’m still right here! Is it fair to talk down my boyfriend like that?"

"Am I not just stating the truth?"

Under Tang Yuxin’s playful glance, Jiang Yu immediately slumped onto the desk, defeated.

"Ugh! Honestly, I don’t have a single solid comeback for that."

At that moment, Tang Yuxin’s phone suddenly dinged.

Then, multiple dings followed in quick succession—ding, ding, ding...

"Why so many WeChat messages?"

Tang Yuxin frowned, picked up her phone from the side, and opened it directly.

After glancing at it, Tang Yuxin covered her mouth to stifle a laugh and handed the phone to Xiao Fei.

"Take a look."

Xiao Fei’s gaze landed on Tang Yuxin’s phone screen, and he too couldn’t help but laugh softly.

It turned out that the girl named Xiaoying had just sent news of his appearance to their class group chat.

At this moment, the new students that Tang Yuxin was currently teaching were frantically spamming her on WeChat.

Reading through the screen filled with endless texts, emoticons, and emojis, Xiao Fei could almost feel their lively reactions jumping out at him through the screen.

"Not bad; now none of your students will get the wrong idea about you."

"Besides you, which student would dare to have wrong ideas about their teacher?"

Right in front of Jiang Yu, Tang Yuxin even teased Xiao Fei with a joke.

Jiang Yu threw up her hands in exaggerated disbelief.

Even though she had a boyfriend, how come watching these two still filled her with enough secondhand affection to feel overwhelmingly stuffed?

No, no—tonight after work, she’d have to find her dear boyfriend for some quality solace.

After lunch, Xiao Fei accompanied Tang Yuxin on a stroll through the school gardens.

When it was nearing 2 PM, he went to Professor Lin’s office as planned.

After knocking and receiving permission to enter, Xiao Fei walked in.

"Professor, I’m here."

"Oh, it’s you, Xiao Fei. I figured you’d be arriving around this time."

Professor Lin, who had been reading a book, set it down and removed his reading glasses.

"How are the kids doing in preschool?"

"They’re doing great—no fussing, which has been quite a relief."

"When you have time, bring those three little ones by to see this old man. I’ve been missing them."

"Of course, I’ll definitely bring the kids to come visit you soon."

They chatted idly for a while before Professor Lin asked Xiao Fei about his recent self-study progress.

After getting a sense of Xiao Fei’s learning progress, Professor Lin couldn’t help but look surprised.

"You’re doing far better than I expected. I thought juggling childcare would have caused you to fall behind, but you’ve actually surged ahead."

"At this point, aside from research-based coursework requiring lab work, you’re nearly done with all theoretical material."

"So, any thoughts on which specific area of research you want to focus on?"

"...Well, I have an idea. Professor, I want to dive into string theory and its field applications."

Professor Lin, who was about to pick up his teacup, froze mid-motion.

"Are you sure about this?"

"I’m sure."

"Why did you decide on this?"

Xiao Fei spoke passionately.

"And there’s Da Bao. Professor, as you know, my kid has shown a huge fascination with space exploration since he was young. When his preschool teacher asked about his future dreams, he said he wanted to be an astronaut."

"So that’s why you decided on this?"

"Why not focus on rockets instead? Isn’t that more practical?"

"Current rocket technology is nearly at its developmental limit, isn’t it?"

Xiao Fei shook his head.

"Traditional rockets, relying on chemical propulsion, are visibly approaching their technical ceiling. There’s little room left for significant innovation."

"So, I plan to explore entirely new propulsion technologies."

"So you chose field applications?"

"Are you aware that this is merely speculative at best on the global stage—not even a concrete theory yet?"

"Of course I know, but someone has to try. If it succeeds one day, and my kid becomes an astronaut, I think he’d be thrilled to know his spacecraft’s cutting-edge tech includes contributions from his dad."

Professor Lin didn’t know how to comment on Xiao Fei’s determination.

From his perspective, this research direction basically meant Xiao Fei might never achieve any results in his lifetime.

"It’s going to be tedious."

"I know."

"There won’t even be instruments, because humanity doesn’t yet know what equipment might be needed for such research. Everything will remain theoretical mathematical calculations."

"I know that too."

"Alright then. Since you’ve made this decision as a father, as your mentor, all I can do is wish you good luck."

Professor Lin sighed but patted Xiao Fei’s shoulder.

"Who knows? Maybe you’ll achieve a miracle."

"I think so too."

Xiao Fei grinned confidently.
