Chapter 560: Lifelong Love
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Many people had come to Shen Zhijin’s lecture this time.
The entire auditorium was full.
Ning Li looked at Shen Zhijin who was standing on the stage.
Looking at his current appearance, it was really difficult for people to a.s.sociate him with the previous image of him nervously and helplessly coaxing a little girl.
He had devoted his whole life to scientific research and could almost be said to have devoted his entire life to physics.
However, it turned out that in addition to this, he actually still cared about other people and things.
The topic of his lecture today was gravitational wave detection, but it was simple and in-depth. Even many non-related professionals were very engrossed as they listened to it.
The lecture lasted two hours, and the last 15 minutes was the free-question session.
The first two people had asked more professional questions, which Shen Zhijin had then answered in turn.
The last question came from a boy.
He looked to be in his early 20s and wore thick gla.s.ses.
“Teacher Shen, you have been my idol since I was young. At present, I am also engaged in theoretical physics research. What I want to ask is, how have you maintained your love for physics for so many years?”
For most people, scientific research was boring.
From morning to night, he would spend his time in the laboratory, repeating experiments countless times, interacting with doc.u.ments and various data all day long…
If it was not for his true love, he definitely would not have been able to persist.
However, it was extremely difficult to persist in maintaining this love despite the repeated setbacks and failures.
When this question was asked, everyone curiously looked at Shen Zhijin.
His expression was calm. It was not known what he was thinking of, but he paused for a moment.
Then, he said, “You’re wrong about one thing. I haven’t always loved physics.”
Once these words were said, the entire auditorium fell silent for a moment, and then there was an uproar.
–Shen Zhijin was the president of the National Physics a.s.sociation. He was a renowned genius in astrophysics at home and abroad. Everyone had thought that physics was his lifelong dream. Who would have thought that he would say such a thing in public?
The boy who asked the question looked a little stunned.
However, Shen Zhijin did not seem to care about these things.
A thought seemed to come to his mind as a faint smile flashed across his face.
“However, my wife said that it was very interesting to watch me learn physics, so I have been doing it until now.”
It was not so easy to love physics for the whole of one’s life.
However, loving her for the whole of his life was very easy for him.
…
The lecture ended and the crowd dispersed.
Ning Li and the others sat in their seats for a while. They left only after everyone else had left.
Several important people in the physics world were present today as well, and Shen Zhijin was with them.
Ning Li followed her senior brothers to the cafeteria.
As some people pa.s.sed by, Shen Zhinjin’s name could occasionally be heard.
Some people discussed his academic research today, while others were talking about him and his wife.
Ning Li had heard some related rumors from Xue Langlang before, so she did not have any thoughts of asking more at this moment.
After lunch, she went back to the dorm to rest.
Just as she put down her backpack, she saw a news notification on her phone.
[ An obsessive fan rear-ended his car and injured Lin Fengmian! ]
She frowned and clicked on the news.
The incident had happened at three o’clock in the morning. Lin Fengmian had gone home after finis.h.i.+ng his work, but the obsessive fan had rear-ended him with the car.
There was a picture of the scene of the rear-end collision on the news. The car’s b.u.mper had been knocked off, and dark red bloodstains could be seen on the ground. It looked like a mess.
Ning Li looked at the time.
It was already one o’clock. Ten hours had pa.s.sed since the incident and she had not known anything about it.
If it was not for the news, she would not have known that such a big thing had happened to him!
The fans were already in an uproar, and the comments below were rising rapidly.
[ This obsessive fan is history! ]
[ My heart aches for my little brother. It’s already hard enough to have to finish work in the early hours of the morning, yet he still has to be pestered by such a person! ]
[ F*ck off! Get away from him! ]
[ The photos at the scene seem to be very serious. Is he hurt?! ]
No one else was in the dormitory at the moment, so Ning Li called Lin Fengmian directly.
Her first call went unanswered.
She tried to call a second time.
This time, he finally picked up.
“Sister?”
Lin Fengmian’s voice came from the receiver.
Ning Li frowned.
“Mian, I saw the news. How are you doing now? Which hospital are you in?”
Lin Fengmian was afraid that she would worry, so he had not mentioned this matter.
Who knew that the news would still be exposed?
He pursed his lips.
“I’m fine, Sister. It’s just a contusion of the cartilage. I’ll be fine after recuperating.”
“Really?”
“Really. Sister, you don’t have to–”
“Send me the medical record.”
Lin Fengmian rubbed the s.p.a.ce between his eyebrows and agreed.
“Okay.”
Lin Fengmian then sent photos of his medical records over.
It was slightly more serious than what he had said, but fortunately, there were no fractures or anything like that.
The doctor had prescribed some medicine and suggested that he recuperate for some time. He was also advised not to move around too much.
Only then did Ning Li let out a sigh of relief.
Lin Fengmian wanted to dance. If his muscles and bones were injured seriously, it would definitely cause a huge impact.
Now, however, this was a blessing in disguise.
She noticed the hospital listed on the medical records– the first affiliated hospital of Xijing University.
“Are you still in the hospital?” She asked.
Lin Fengmian said, “No, I left this morning. I’m at the apartment now.”
He had been worried about the media swarming over, so after the incident, he had kept his actions very low-key and secretive.
The company’s headquarters was in Haicheng, but because he had many jobs in the Capital, the company had already helped him rent an apartment here some time ago.
Ning Li picked up her backpack.
“Send me the address of the apartment.”
