Chapter 1501 Plastic Surgery
Since the start of the new semester, Suning's courses have been fully booked, and even many students from other schools come to attend classes.

Of course, not everyone can understand the overly advanced mathematical knowledge. Most students come here for Suning’s reputation, and they all want to witness the charm of the international mathematical master with their own eyes.

However, Suning's experience was not comparable to that of these ordinary people. Instead, he used a special way of speaking to teach. When he talked about those obscure mathematical terms and knowledge, he occasionally inserted some foreign experiences and customs, which immediately fascinated all the students in the classroom.

For example, Suning would talk about the international status of the Fields Medal and why there is no mathematics award in the Nobel Prize. It turns out that gossip is a common problem among all human beings. Even those well-known experts with gray hair listened with great interest.

At this time, Zhuang Tunan also came to the Fudan University campus, and asked along the way, and came to this large classroom, holding in his hand the Suzhou snacks made by his mother Huang Ling.

Just looking at this crowded classroom and the figure speaking eloquently on the podium, Zhuang Tunan couldn't hide the shock on his face at all, because the person on the podium didn't look like his father at all, and this person was too young, and it didn't seem like there was that much of an age difference between him and him.

After recovering from the shock, Zhuang Tunan thought of asking the students standing nearby, "Students, is the teacher lecturing on the stage really Professor Zhuang Chaoying?"

"Yes! Young, right? It is said that he is not even forty years old yet he is already a world-renowned professor." The student explained to Zhuang Tunan while staring at the figure on the stage.

Zhuang Tunan almost blurted out that he was not Zhuang Chaoying, but when the words came to his lips, he changed his words to a euphemism, "But...but he is too young, isn't he? The difference between him and what is in the newspaper and the information is too big."

"That's normal! After all, due to issues with photography technology, the photos in newspapers and documents are distorted."

"Huh? That seems to make sense."

In fact, what Zhuang Tunan wanted to say at this time was that the person on the stage was "distorted" and was not the father in his impression at all. Apart from some rough similarities in outline, he really couldn't be sure that the other person was the same person as his father.

Soon Suning's wonderful lecture came to an end, and thunderous applause rang out in the classroom. Especially when he saw the excited expressions on the faces of the students around him, Zhuang Tunan almost felt speechless.

Although Zhuang Tunan was a little afraid to recognize Su Ning at this time, he still gritted his teeth and waited there silently until all the students around Su Ning dispersed. Then Zhuang Tunan slowly walked towards Su Ning.

However, the first thing Su Ning noticed was his son. He felt that his son's appearance was too mediocre. "Tunan, why are you here?"

"Dad? It's really you?" At this time, Zhuang Tunan finally couldn't help but blurted out in shock.

Su Ning, however, pretended to complain and looked at Zhuang Tunan in front of him, scolding him with a smile, "You little bastard, you don't even recognize your own father?"

"Uh……"

A white-haired old professor standing nearby looked at Su Ning in surprise and asked, "Professor Zhuang, is this your son? You already have a son this old?"

At this time, Su Ning patted Zhuang Tunan on the shoulder and introduced him to the group of professors and experts, "Yes! My son Zhuang Tunan is a student in the Department of Architecture at Tongji University."

"Oh! Professor Zhuang, it's true that like fathers come like sons. Why didn't you let Tunan apply to Fudan University?"

"Tunan also considered the history department of Fudan University, but I was studying in the United States at the time. So he asked our neighbor, who graduated from Shanghai Jiaotong University, and recommended that Tunan apply for the architecture department of Tongji University."

"I see! Fudan University has missed out on a great talent."

After that, he exchanged a few words with these well-known professors, and then Suning took his eldest son out of the classroom, while Zhuang Tunan was still feeling dizzy.

However, neither Su Ning nor Zhuang Tunan noticed that there was a thin figure in the corner of the classroom, silently watching them leave.

The figure in the corner is Li Jia. Whenever Suning has an open class at Fudan University, she will come over and sit in the corner to audit and take the class. Of course, what she likes most is Suning chatting about all sorts of things. Suddenly, she feels that the world outside must be more exciting.

Outside Heilongjiang lies the vibrant Shanghai, and outside Shanghai lies America, a hundred times more prosperous...

However, Li Jia did not step forward immediately. Instead, she turned around and left the classroom silently, with the beautiful world woven by Suning always appearing in her mind.

Only after following Su Ning out of the crowd did Zhuang Tunan look at Su Ning in disbelief and ask, "Dad, you...what are you..."

"What? Have you become more handsome?" However, Suning asked back while stroking his face indifferently.

Zhuang Tunan was naturally not used to his father's ridiculous remarks. Instead, he looked at his father, who was familiar yet unfamiliar to him, and explained, "Huh? Yes! Dad, you look much younger than before. Aside from the general similarity in appearance, I would never recognize you if we walked on the street."

Then Su Ning put his arm around Zhuang Tunan's neck and explained mysteriously, "Tunan, Daddy will tell you a secret. Daddy had plastic surgery in the United States."

"Ah? Plastic surgery?" As expected, Zhuang Tunan was shocked by Suning's explanation.

"Yes! Plastic surgery technology abroad is quite advanced. I feel that my previous appearance was too ugly. If it weren't inappropriate, I would have wanted to change my name as well."

"This……"

"Haha, brat, are you scared?"

"Well, a little bit. You are a world away from the image I had of my father."

"Haha, your hand is bulging, what are you holding?"

At this moment, Zhuang Tunan quickly handed the snack in his hand to Su Ning, "Oh! Dad, this is some Suzhou snack that my mom asked me to bring you. I thought you probably haven't been able to eat it outside these years, so I made it especially for you."

"Your mother is thoughtful." Suning took the Suzhou snacks with a complicated expression.

Zhuang Tunan also noticed the emotion and complexity on Su Ning's face, and quickly looked at Su Ning and suggested, "Dad, can you remarry my mom?"

"Humph! Tunan, do you think it's still possible?"

"This……"

"Given my handsome looks right now, will your mother just beat me with a broom like a gangster?"

"Huh? Indeed! My mom would never recognize you if she saw you. Even my grandparents might not recognize you."

"Tunan, speaking of your grandparents, I have to remind you that I used to be too filial. Filial piety is a good thing, but once you become too filial, you're completely doomed."

"Oh no?"

"Humph! To some extent, your grandparents and Third Uncle are vampires. Now that they can't suck me anymore, they want to suck you. As long as you give in once, there will be no end to it."

"But...but they are my grandparents!"

"That's right! But you have to learn to say no! Someone who can't say no will only be looked down upon by others."

"..."

Zhuang Tunan seemed to understand what Suning said. He did think that his grandparents were going too far, but he also thought that Suning's behavior was too extreme.

Zhuang Tunan always thinks he can do it just right, but this just shows his youth and ignorance. Zhuang Chaoying was confident that he could handle family relationships well back then, but the final result was that he became a feast for the blood-sucking worms.

……

At Suzhou No. 1 Middle School, Zhuang Xiaoting and Lin Dongzhe finally became deskmates. The teacher wanted to check their schoolbags to see if any of them were reading books that they shouldn't be reading. Of course, the teacher's target was the bad student Lin Dongzhe.

The good student Zhuang Xiaoting helped Lin Dongzhe to cover up and transferred the "dirty things" in Lin Dongzhe's schoolbag in advance. The teacher did not check the schoolbag of the good student Zhuang Xiaoting, so he got away with it.

"Xiaoting, thank you so much for today."

"Just a thank you and that's it?" "Huh? I'll treat you to a popsicle later."

"No! I want ice cream."

"Okay! At worst, I can treat you with a month's allowance."

"Hmph! That's pretty much it."

Soon, the country ushered in a good era for home appliances. Lin Wufeng and the people from their factory participated in the offline exhibition of the Canton Fair and sold a lot of their flagship products, compressors.

Being able to easily secure millions of orders at just one exhibition immediately refreshed Lin Wufeng's worldview and made him realize that he was still in the situation of a frog in a well.

Lin Wufeng naturally received a generous bonus, and then he bought new fabric for Song Ying and watches for the children.

Huang Ling immediately went to Lin's house to thank Lin Wufeng, but Huang Ling was clear-headed. Although she appreciated Lin Wufeng's kindness, she had to give him money.

Lin Wufeng knew Huang Ling's character. He accepted the two watches for ten yuan, but the fabric was for Zhuang Xiaoting. He also said that he would not give it to her if she gave him money. This immediately made Huang Ling give up the argument.

Lin Wufeng also specially bought a better watch for Zhuang Tunan as a reward for his tutoring of Lin Dongzhe.

The watch looks good, but it only costs 45 yuan. They didn't expect that things in Guangdong are so cheap now, and most importantly, they don't need precious watch tickets.

Finally, under Lin Wufeng's persuasion, Huang Ling accepted it. After all, Zhuang Tunan has grown up, and in addition to dating, he will soon start working, so he still needs a watch that represents fashion.

However, Lin Wufeng's happiness did not last long, because his colleagues reported him for working part-time outside and he was punished, but he kept it a secret and did not tell his family for the time being.

One night, Lin Dongzhe discovered that Zhou Qing had no way to get into the house because Wang Yong had changed the door lock without telling her.

Lin Dongzhe, who has a cheerful personality, immediately stood up for Zhou Qing, and then learned about Lin Wufeng from Wang Yong. Lin Dongzhe even fought with Wang Yong because of this. Fortunately, Zhuang Xiaoting and the neighbors were trying their best to stop them, otherwise Lin Dongzhe would have suffered a great loss.

Xiang Yang and Director An, who got the news soon, came home, and Lin Wufeng also went home after a while. Song Ying felt sorry for Lin Wufeng. Such a big thing happened, but he didn't say a word and planned to bear it alone. But how could he bear it?

In fact, it was the people from the compressor factory who called Director An to find out about the situation, so Director An came to visit at home and inquire about the situation.

Lin Wufeng hasn't had a part-time job for a year, and the truth about the incident came out too suddenly. He also felt that the matter was a bit weird.

Then Lin Wufeng told Director An that if anyone from the compressor factory called him next time, he should just tell the truth.

Of course, Director An is also a down-to-earth person. Especially some accounts are all stamped with the village official seal, so there is no problem. He assured Lin Wufeng that he will fully cooperate with the investigation. Lin Wufeng is just providing technical guidance, not committing economic crimes.

Lin Dongzhe was worried that his father would be arrested, and he didn't eat for the whole day. Zhuang Xiaoting was worried and stayed with him all the time. Huang Ling made a bowl of noodles and brought a letter from Zhuang Tunan to show Lin Dongzhe.

Lin Wufeng learned from Zhuang Xiaoting that Wang Yong bullied Lin Dongzhe, and it just so happened that Wang Yong was shouting in the street again.

After all, Wang Yong has been scolded by Song Ying many times in recent years, so all the grudges are not without reason.

Lin Wufeng couldn't help himself and rushed over to hit Wang Yong. Fortunately, Yiming, Lin Dongzhe and Zhuang Xiaoting arrived in time to stop him.

Yiming comforted Lin Wufeng, knowing that he was not wrong. Everyone wants to live a good life, and it is not shameful for Lin Wufeng to make money with his own skills.

……

At this time, Suning's old villa had been renovated, and Suning moved out of the school as soon as possible. He still felt comfortable living in his own house.

At this time, Teacher Ruan looked at the homeowner in front of him with a smile and asked, "Professor Zhuang, what do you think of the renovation here?"

"Good! I am very satisfied! It seems that Director Zhou's introduction is indeed good." Su Ning also shook hands with Teacher Ruan with a smile.

"That's good! As long as you are satisfied, Professor Zhuang."

Then Su Ning very arrogantly took out two thousand yuan as a reward. Even Li Jia, who was standing behind Teacher Ruan, was surprised. "Teacher Ruan, here are two thousand yuan as your reward."

"Ah? This is too much. One thousand yuan is enough." However, Teacher Ruan refused in shock.

At this time, Su Ning stuffed the money directly into Teacher Ruan's hand and said, "Teacher Ruan, you probably forgot that I returned from studying in the United States, so I have no shortage of money. Besides, your team's work is worth this money."

"That...that's really embarrassing."

Then Su Ning looked at Teacher Ruan again and said, "Teacher Ruan, I have a small favor to ask you. I wonder if it's too abrupt?"

"Professor Zhuang, go ahead." Teacher Ruan and Li Jia looked at Suning in surprise, and suddenly realized that this money was not easy to get.

"Zhuang Tunan from your Tongji Architecture Department is my son. Could you please take care of him, Mr. Ruan?"

"What? Zhuang Tunan is your son, Professor Zhuang?"

"Yes! Ever since I separated from his mother, he and his sister have been living with her. I don't have time to pay attention to his affairs on weekdays, so now I can only ask for your help, Teacher Ruan."

"Professor Zhuang, don't worry! Zhuang Tunan is the top student in our architecture department. His future is definitely bright."

"Haha, Teacher Ruan, you're exaggerating."

Then Suning looked at the sweet girl Li Jia again, knowing that she and Zhuang Tunan had feelings for each other, but the two could not be considered a normal couple.

It is not clear whether there will be any future developments between Li Jia and Zhuang Tunan, but Li Jia is indeed a character with a lot of screen time, especially the pure feeling of first love face, which is not comparable to those artificial beauties.

Then Su Ning looked at Li Jia in front of him and expressed his gratitude. He also gave her a small gift. "Li Jia, I'm sorry to have troubled you this time. This gift is a small reward for you."

Li Jia, who accepted the gift, also greeted with a smile, "Ah? Teacher Zhuang, you're welcome! I've been attending your open classes at Fudan University every day lately, and I've really benefited a lot."

"Oh? Li Jia, are you still interested in mathematics?"

"Huh? Yes! After all, architecture is also inseparable from the support of mathematics."

"That's true! I'm planning to form my own R&D team. It will include experts in physics, chemistry, and materials science. However, we're currently short of a crucial assistant position. Li Jia, are you interested in giving it a try?"

"Ah? Professor Zhuang, can I?"

"The R&D team is in its early stages, making it the perfect place for newcomers like you to join. After all, we've reserved plenty of time for you to get familiar with the team."

"Thank you, Professor Zhuang! I accept the assistant position."

"Okay! Don't worry! I promise it won't affect your normal studies."

"Yes! Professor Zhuang."
