Rebirth: Start to Save the Treasure Girl

Wu Hongwei suddenly realized what was happening.

It's connected now, everything's connected.

No wonder he always felt like someone was watching him from behind; now it seems that person was Xue Rui.

"Is this a new tactic for poaching talent in China?" Wu Hongwei was on the verge of tears.

There are two things on the table, one is his identification, and the other is the company seal.

Xue Rui gave him the choice.

The decision to stay or leave is made in a single thought.

Xue Rui noticed Wu Hongwei's hesitation and said, "We respect talent. You can name your salary and benefits; it will definitely be no worse than what you received at your old company."

After saying that, Xue Rui moved aside.

"Old Wu, I came in a hurry, so I just brought you a potted green ivy. From now on, we'll be working in the same company." Teng Wenbo put down the flowerpot.

Xue Rui chose to involve Wu Hongwei's old classmate and play the emotional card.

He can offer better terms than Nvidia now, but in the long run, Nvidia's potential is clearly greater.

In other words, Wu Hongwei made a profit in the short term, but it is likely to be a losing proposition in the long term.

But he also has something that Nvidia can't replace: a higher status, more freedom, and the presence of family and friends, which is equivalent to giving Wu Hongwei a different life.

Wu Hongwei is now middle-aged and standing at a crossroads in his life, but at this age, most people often have no choice.

"To me, your pothos looks like it was stolen from school."

Wu Hongwei opened the file bag, took out his official stamp, and casually pressed it onto the A4 paper, as if he had always worked there.

"It doesn't look stolen, it's stolen." Xue Rui chuckled, picking up one of the contracts and waving it at Wu Hongwei:

"Mr. Wu, from now on you will be in charge of the overall coordination here. Our operations and maintenance team also needs your guidance. Teacher Teng is our partner, in charge of software. You two are a perfect match."

"Mr. Xue, wait a minute." Wu Hongwei called out to Xue Rui, holding the documents, his expression very serious.

"What's wrong?" Xue Rui leaned over to take a look, wondering if there was some disagreement about the contract.
"You can tell me what conditions you're not satisfied with. My greatest strength is that I listen to advice," Xue Rui said sincerely.

Wu Hongwei shook his head and pointed to the official seal in the lower right corner, saying, "It's not that I have conditions, but the company name has to be changed and the artificial intelligence part has to be removed."

"The computing center is general-purpose; don't specify a particular discipline. Most disciplines don't understand hardware; they're more focused on software within their specific fields, such as first-principles calculation software used in biochemistry, environmental science, materials science, or quantum mechanics, like VASP..."

Wu Hongwei explained a lot, and Teng Wenbo nodded frequently, but Xue Rui was completely confused.

Xue Rui frowned deeply; sometimes he really wanted to call the police.

He runs his own company, and while he might not be an expert in his field, he's certainly completely clueless.

So Xue Rui secretly turned on his phone to record, and then, just like when he had fooled Lin Ruoxi before, he listened attentively, nodding from time to time, as if he had given it serious consideration.

However, as Wu Hongwei spoke more and more, Xue Rui discovered that there was another charlatan among them.

Teng Wenbo is basically the same kind of person as him.

As time went on, Wu Hongwei's desire to express himself gradually disappeared. He realized that the two people in front of him couldn't understand what he was saying at all.

He opened his mouth, but suddenly felt a sense of helplessness, like "talking to a brick wall."

"Mr. Wu, don't worry. I'll bring a professional over this afternoon. She'll definitely understand."

Xue Rui couldn't keep up the act any longer, so he simply told Wu Hongwei the truth.

"I'm going to class. I'm going to study hard and make progress every day."

Xue Rui didn't forget that he was still a student, so he made an excuse and slipped away immediately.

"Old Wu, I still have to teach my students, so I'm leaving too." Teng Wenbo followed suit, trying to use his position to run away.

However, Xue Rui's soft voice came from outside the door: "Teacher Teng doesn't have class today, you two have a good chat."

Wu Hongwei gestured for him to sit back down, and Teng Wenbo sat back down with a pained expression.

He has been a boss for many years, but there is a huge gap between him and Wu Hongwei in terms of technology.

To put it bluntly, once you reach their position, you're mostly doing overall coordination work and grasping the company's general direction.

But Wu Hongwei was different; he had a technical background and also wielded power!

Xue Rui gave him a really big job...

Suddenly, a pleasant sound of laughter came from outside the window.

The two of them looked out the window at the same time. Several female students carrying books passed by, the sunlight shining on their shoulders, revealing a youthful and vibrant atmosphere.

Once the female student had disappeared from their sight, Wu Hongwei slowly spoke:

"Old Vine, I feel like you've been plotting against me all along."

"No." Teng Wenbo decisively shifted the blame.

"Then do you dare to come to the hospital with me? To meet my parents."

"Don't dare."

"But I still want to thank you for giving me a choice."

"Then you have to treat me to a meal."

Wu Hongwei: "You're still so shameless."

……

After Xue Rui left, he listened to the subject Wu Hongwei had mentioned earlier and decided to see it for himself.

After all, what's the biggest advantage of university? Classes are free, and you can get in if you want.

So Xue Rui spent the rest of the day moving between various professional theory classrooms.

Theoretical physics, medical physics, organic chemistry...

Xue Rui couldn't recognize the symbols on the blackboard at all. His mind was a complete mess, and he felt dizzy and confused, as if he were reading a book written in a foreign language.

During a basic course for freshmen in the Department of Chemical Engineering, Xue Rui noticed a guy in the back row sleeping on his desk. He casually picked it up and glanced at the book, "Fundamentals of Organic Synthesis Reactions."

It's a basic course for freshmen, and the book title even includes the word "basic," so surely he should be able to understand it?
A few minutes later, Xue Rui looked dejected and muttered to himself, "Damn it, who researched this thing?"

Xue Rui said he went back to class all day, but in reality he slept in the classrooms of various subjects all day.

After giving Lin Ruoxi a heads-up during the last chemistry class, Xue Rui fell asleep peacefully.

The students nearby whispered among themselves, "That guy looks unfamiliar, which class is he in?"

"Who knows? Probably a substitute teacher." The female student shook her head, then suddenly saw a tall figure enter through the back door.

So she asked a similar question: "That girl looks unfamiliar, which class is she in?"

"He must be a new transfer student."

The male student spoke earnestly, his gaze fixed on the girl's tall figure, until she sat down next to the unfamiliar boy...

The appearance of two unfamiliar students suddenly enlivened the dull classroom, and many students whispered among themselves and looked towards the back row of the classroom.

Xue Rui was fast asleep, slumped over the table. Lin Ruoxi watched him with a smile, and even took off her coat and covered him with it.

This scene made many boys envious, and they would stretch or scratch their heads from time to time, glancing at the back row.

The middle-aged teacher on the podium smiled slightly. How could the students fool him with such petty tricks? He tapped the table and pointed to the two people in the last row, saying, "I've been lecturing all afternoon. One of you slept all afternoon, and the other only came at the last minute."

Lin Ruoxi shrank her neck, her bright, watery eyes hiding timidly under the table.

"Stand up and answer one question, and I won't remember your names."

Upon hearing this, all the students who had been dozing off sat up straight. A few scattered sounds filled the classroom, followed by a silence so quiet you could hear a pin drop, as everyone feared they would be the next one called on.

Xue Rui was awakened by the deafening silence and subconsciously sat up straight.

That's how it is during your student years: a noisy environment makes you feel at ease, while a quiet atmosphere makes you break out in a cold sweat.

Xue Rui was still sleepy. He looked around. To his left was a male student who had just woken up, with red marks on his face. To his right was Lin Ruoxi, who was also sitting upright.

The middle-aged teacher took a sip of tea and slowly asked the question:

What is the order of reactivity of phenol, benzyl alcohol, benzoic acid, and bromine? Why?

As soon as he finished speaking, the classroom was filled with the rustling sound of pages turning.

Xue Rui also subconsciously started searching, while the young man next to him was looking for a book under the table with his head down.

"I remember bringing it."

The boy scratched his head, looking at the book in Xue Rui's hand, vaguely feeling that it might be his, but he had no proof.

"Stand up and answer." The middle-aged teacher leaned against the podium, staring straight at Xue Rui.

Xue Rui pointed to himself and received an affirmative answer from the teacher.

Suddenly, Lin Ruoxi stood up and answered crisply, "Phenol > Benzyl alcohol > Benzoic acid."

"The hydroxyl group in phenol activates the benzene ring through a conjugation effect; the hydroxyl group in benzyl alcohol is weakly activated through an inductive effect..."

The fluent answer drew everyone's attention, and a collective gasp rang out.

Students who excel academically attract attention wherever they go. If such a student is also beautiful, she can almost certainly be considered the goddess of the department.

The middle-aged teacher was somewhat displeased. His purpose was to give the students in the classroom a warning, and Lin Ruoxi was disrespecting him.
What are some typical examples of regioselective reactions?

The teacher posed a new question, this time about something that hadn't been covered yet, and thought it would stump Lin Ruoxi.

"The directing effects of Markovnikov addition, anti-Markovnikov addition, and electrophilic aromatic substitution are determined by the reaction mechanism..."

Lin Ruoxi answered again, and added many more questions, hoping that the teacher would stop asking questions.

The middle-aged teacher put down his teacup and looked at Lin Ruoxi with great interest. How come he had never noticed that he had such a student rushing through the course in his class before?
The fact that someone can learn on their own shows that they like the subject and are a promising talent worth nurturing.

For a moment, he was too lazy to pursue other questions, and instead cared about what the girl in front of him was called.

Seeing that the other person was about to speak again, Lin Ruoxi hurriedly explained, "Xue Rui... he's my boyfriend. He wasn't originally in this major."

"Excuse me, what's your name? What's your student ID number?" the middle-aged man asked gently.

Lin Ruoxi answered truthfully: "Um, my name is Lin Ruoxi, I'm in Software Engineering Class 141, student ID 14..."

"You're a computer science major?" the middle-aged man asked in surprise.

Lin Ruoxi's eyes widened in surprise, and she covered her mouth as she realized what had happened.

Neither she nor Xue Rui are in this major, so why are they answering questions about this major?

She should have just run away with Xue Rui!

Xue Rui's mouth stretched from ear to ear. The little girl was really too knowledgeable. It seemed like she knew a little bit about every profession. She made him look very impressive.

Seeing the envious looks from these people, Xue Rui thoroughly enjoyed it.

Suddenly, Lin Ruoxi lifted his arm: "Rui, let's go..."

"Hey, wait a minute."

Xue Rui hurriedly ran back two steps and tossed the "Fundamentals of Organic Synthesis Reactions" book in his hand to the boy who was scratching his head.

"Damn! I knew he looked familiar!" the boy couldn't help but curse. When he turned around, he found the teacher staring at him intently. He gave an embarrassed smile and sat back down.

"Don't sit down yet, answer the question I just asked her..."

To ease the tension, the middle-aged teacher steered the conversation back to the classroom, thinking that the students should remember the questions he had just asked, and that he could still give them a way out.

However, the boy had slept all afternoon and his attention was entirely focused on finding his books, so he couldn't answer the question at all.

"Teacher, I don't know how."

As soon as he finished speaking, the atmosphere in the large lecture hall became strange and oppressive, and the students looked at each other in bewilderment.

Two people from other majors snuck in and completely outclassed them in terms of professional knowledge...

They could already guess what the teacher was going to say next.

"Look at you all! Aren't you ashamed of yourselves? You're not even as good as the computer science students..."

As expected, what was bound to happen will happen. The students all hung their heads, looking like wilted eggplants.

Hearing the reprimands coming from the classroom, Xue Rui felt a strange sense of relief.

Even though I'm a complete noob, my girlfriend is amazing.

"Xi Xi is so smart." Xue Rui patted Lin Ruoxi's head to show his praise.

Lin Ruoxi lowered her head, enjoying Xue Rui's caresses.

She couldn't help but ask, "Rui, why did you come here?"

Xue Rui touched his nose, suddenly feeling a little guilty.

Xue Rui knows the general direction of the future, but he never thought that running a computing center would require contact with so many cutting-edge disciplines. Xue Rui is now willing but unable to do so, and feels very anxious.

Xue Rui wanted to alleviate his anxiety by "pretending to study." Just like a graduate student preparing for the entrance exam, whether he actually studies or not is another matter, but even just sitting in the study room playing on his phone would lessen his guilt.

Moreover, after communicating with Wu Hongwei today, Xue Rui became certain of one thing: in front of professionals, not a single clue can be hidden.

Xue Rui recalled his conversation with Lin Ruoxi. Did Lin Ruoxi really not realize that his skills were poor?

The answer is no; Lin Ruoxi definitely saw through it.

Unlike Wu Hongwei's helplessness and disappointment, Lin Ruoxi would happily chat with him, always looking up to him and giving him positive praise, regardless of whether he was right or wrong.

how to say?

It has the suspicion of "making fools happy".

Just like Lin Ruoxi two or three years ago, he constantly stirred her emotions.

The situation now seems to have reversed...

"Xi Xi, did you already know I was a terrible student?" Xue Rui said, pinching Lin Ruoxi's nose.

"No...no," Lin Ruoxi said weakly.

"Then why did you answer the question for me just now? Did you subconsciously think I didn't know the answer?" Xue Rui continued to press.

"I..." Lin Ruoxi was so anxious that she was about to cry.

Xue Rui sighed, his voice softening considerably: "I really don't know how, I'll have to rely on you from now on."

Lin Ruoxi blinked, holding back her tears. She buried her face in Xue Rui's chest, took a deep breath, and when she looked at Xue Rui again, her eyes sparkled with many little stars:
"Without Xue Rui, Lin Ruoxi is nothing. You need to have more confidence." (End of Chapter)
