Transmigrating to the 80s to Become Stepmom to Five Bigwigs

Chapter 162: The ‘In This Lifetime’ Series

Mu Jingzhe looked at the law professor, who spoke in a refined yet direct manner.

“What he’s interested in is the law. He’s the most knowledgeable in the law. If he wants to get into university in the future, he’ll definitely apply to our university, right?”

The professor from Imperial University retorted, “Don’t make it sound like our school doesn’t have a legal major. Our school is famous for being a comprehensive school. We have all kinds of majors. It’s not impossible to study the law over here.”

The two of them argued for a while, but the professor from Tsing University, who had been observing Shao Nan silently, didn’t participate in the argument. He only squatted down and asked Shao Nan amiably, “Actually, you like science very much. Especially physics, right? It’s just that you haven’t had the time to study it systematically?”

Shao Nan felt that he was right and nodded. “Mm.”

“That’s easy. Our school may not be good at other things, but we can teach. I’m not bad either. If you think it’s okay, you can learn from me first and come to our school later.”

This cultured teacher extended an olive branch and told Shao Nan and Mu Jingzhe about the school’s youth class.

His general meaning was that he didn’t want to miss out on a good seedling like Shao Nan. He wanted to nurture him and pave the way for him to enter the juvenile class in the future.

Mu Jingzhe had naturally heard of the magical youth class. She just hadn’t expected that she would encounter such a magical thing in her lifetime. Shao Nan had merely participated in a competition, and now universities that people were dying to enter were vying to recruit him.

Geniuses were indeed different.

Shao Nan was quite calm, but Mu Jingzhe, who had a normal IQ, was extremely excited. “This is like a dream.”

The professor from Imperial University and the other professor hadn’t expected that while they were fighting over there, the guy from Tsing University would actually be so cunning as to tempt this little student.

“That’s not very honorable of you.” The two of them went forward and pushed aside the Tsing University professor before they began to tell Shao Nan and Mu Jingzhe about the benefits of their schools.

Mu Jingzhe’s heart swelled as she listened. She felt dizzy, as though she was floating amidst clouds of happiness.

After leaving their contact details and saying goodbye to the three professors, Mu Jingzhe was still floating in the clouds, unable to get down. “I didn’t expect that I would have such a day. Fretting over which school you should go to. What a happy problem to have.”

Although it was Shao Nan who had been invited, Mu Jingzhe felt that since she was Shao Nan’s mother now, she also had to fret over which school he was going to go to.

When he saw how thrilled Mu Jingzhe looked, although Shao Nan’s face was calm, his small chest was straight. “Mom, are you that happy?”

“Of course. You don’t understand the mentality of ordinary people like us.”

“If this makes you happy, then it’s easy. I’ll make you happy every day from now on. I’ll go to whichever school you like and keep you happy.”

Shao Nan didn’t dare guarantee anything else, but studying wasn’t difficult for him. It was similar to eating and sleeping. He just needed to spend some time and energy to learn.

Shao Nan had always thought that he was the most useless among the five of them, but now he had finally found confidence.

Mu Jingzhe was stunned for a moment when she heard Shao Nan’s bold words. It wasn’t because she thought he was exaggerating. If she were to say these words, it would be an exaggeration, but coming from Shao Nan, it most definitely was not.

It was her first time experiencing the feeling of raising a super-genius or a star student, so she was very curious.

If this wasn’t her son, she would definitely be itching to slap this boy if she heard him say such boastful words.

However, it was completely different now that he was her son. She felt extremely proud of him, and her heart was filled with thoughts of how brilliant Little Nan was. Oh, the sweet frustration of having too many good schools to choose from!

“I’m very happy. However, Little Nan, I’m not the one who should choose. It’s you who should be choosing what you like. When the time comes, just find the right direction and move forward.”

“I’m fine with anything. I quite like the law, but I also enjoy mathematics and physics. Actually, studying medicine would be quite good too.”

“Then you can take your time to consider this before choosing.”

“Okay.” Shao Nan tilted his head and asked seriously, “But can’t I study all of them?”

Mu Jingzhe: “Yes, of course you can… I forgot that you’re not an ordinary person. You can learn more if you want to.”

Given Shao Nan’s brain, he would do pretty well even if he just learned something casually.

Mu Jingzhe was still in a daze, but Shao Nan had already recovered from his excitement. “Mommy, we rarely come to the capital. Let’s take a nice stroll tomorrow. I’ve received my prize money, so I can buy you a gift.”

Since this was the first time he’d earned money, Shao Nan had to buy gifts for Mu Jingzhe and everyone else.

“Okay, okay, go ahead and buy me one.” Mu Jingzhe immediately agreed.

As the mother and son were talking happily, they heard Ji Buwang’s voice and saw him walking over. “Have you been alright in the past two days? I wasn’t able to contact you.”

“We’re fine.” Mu Jingzhe patted her head. “I’ve been so busy with the competition in the past three days that I forgot to contact you. Did you receive the letter I sent you?”

“I did.” Ji Buwang nodded. “How was the competition?”

“He’s the champion. Little Nan is the champion. The youngest champion at that. He’s amazing.” Mu Jingzhe started to get worked up as she spoke.

Ji Buwang knew that the children were all smart, but he was still impressed by how outstanding Shao Nan was. He gave Shao Nan a thumbs-up. “Impressive.”

“Since Little Nan won the championship, let’s celebrate tonight and eat well.”

“Sure.”

“What do you want to eat? How about roasted duck? I know a restaurant with an authentic taste.”

“Okay.” Since they were in the capital, they definitely had to try the local specialties. Mu Jingzhe started drooling. “Were things fine at home?”

“Pretty good. My grandfather is also in good health.”

Grandpa was fine and all, but while Ji Buwang had been freshening up before going out, he’d teased him by saying that he was a peacock spreading his tail. Later on, as Ji Buwang had left the house, Grandpa had nagged and said that a grown grandson couldn’t be kept at home.

As they spoke, Mu Han found them.

Mu Han was currently staying in the capital and doing the dirtiest work but was earning quite a bit of money.

After not seeing him for a few months, Mu Han seemed reborn. The childishness on his face had completely faded, and he had become mature and steady. Only when he saw Mu Jingzhe did he reveal a familiar look.

“Sister.”

“Sigh… You’ve lost weight. Xiao Han, you look thinner.”

Mu Han laughed. “Sister, why are you like Mom? I thought I just saw Mom.”

Mu Jingzhe had said that subconsciously. The instant she had seen him, she’d felt that he had lost weight. Mu Han blinked and suppressed the heat in his eyes as he looked at Shao Nan.

Shao Nan greeted him obediently. “Uncle.”

“Aye, Uncle will buy you some candy later.”

“Thank you, Uncle.” Because of Mu Jingzhe, Shao Nan was fond of this uncle too and had a filter when it came to Mu Han to begin with. Besides, he was the best at observing people’s expressions and knew how to make an adult like him. Therefore, even though he wasn’t familiar with Mu Han, he tugged at his clothes, appearing very close to him.

Mu Han was indeed happy. To be honest, he had felt unfamiliar with this nephew, who wasn’t related to his sister by blood. However, Shao Nan’s actions instantly closed the distance between the two of them. He felt that the distance between them had quickly disappeared and he felt happy about it.

“Little Nan is so obedient.”
