Chapter 457: Chapter 457 Test 4

Li Julin suddenly realized that he might have just met such a person and finally understood why He Nan had personally brought her here.

"I have a pretty good memory. Although it’s not photographic, I do remember the big questions that I’ve thought hard about quite clearly," Shen Mianmian said, not out of modesty, but because she truly felt she wasn’t capable of a photographic memory; it was just that her memory was better than average.

"Photographic memory doesn’t mean one won’t forget anything they’ve seen, just that their memory is many times better than that of an average person," Li Julin explained, his words laden with unabashed praise for her.

Li Shiping and Xiu Min were both astonished, their eyes wide and mouths agape. Neither had expected Shen Mianmian to have such a talent. Photographic memory—that was the stuff of legends, wasn’t it?

They had unearthed a treasure in their family!

Li Yue wore a mischievous grin, finding Little Mianmian’s fabrications too good. Look at how she’s charmed his dad—his satisfaction was off the charts.

Seizing the moment, he began to stir the pot, "Dad, my sister and I are hopeless causes, but look at how clever Little Mianmian is. You really should take the time to teach her. Aim to get her into Beijing University, to nurture her talent, so she can make significant contributions to the country in the future."

Li Julin once again glared at his son, clearly finding him too talkative. Although he hadn’t shown it, that didn’t mean he hadn’t noticed.

Since Shen Mianmian had arrived, she’d been cooperative, saying she wanted to acknowledge him as her master yet she’d never taken the initiative to ask, the clever girl with outstanding achievements.

Even if she wasn’t to become his student, she wouldn’t fare badly in the future. And for him, taking on such a student would be scoring a great deal.

At this moment, Li Julin’s mindset had done a one hundred and eighty-degree turn. It wasn’t that he didn’t want the student anymore, but rather he was somewhat worried that this student, too proud and ambitious, might not consider him good enough.

But of course, he wouldn’t show this concern, maintaining a stern expression and not revealing how much he favored her.

Shen Mianmian, seeing through his thoughts, a glint sparkling in her eyes, immediately said, "Uncle Li, although I am young, I do understand that an exceptional teacher can change a student’s life, helping them to reach greater heights. Even the ancient kings sought the tutelage of the most learned scholars. There is no end to learning, and what I know now is merely a drop in the ocean. If you don’t mind, could you perhaps teach me more?"

Her speech was well-received, acknowledging the importance of a teacher without coming across as arrogant or conceited because of her own scholastic abilities.

Li Julin’s previous misgivings faded, his impression of her improving again as he nodded in approval, a trace of satisfaction visible in his eyes.

"Well said. For a teacher, cultivating an outstanding student who can continue the legacy and contribute to the country is a lifelong dream."

These words were tantamount to agreeing to take Shen Mianmian on as his student.

All present felt a gleam of excitement, and Shen Mianmian was particularly thrilled, her joy unmasked, her eyes shining bright as if filled with tiny stars.

"Uncle Li, I will definitely study hard in the future and remember every word you say," she promised.

Li Julin taught her a serious lesson, "Don’t be like Li Yue, buttering up to your superiors."

The room burst into laughter at his words, leaving Li Yue speechless. "Dad, when did you become so humorous?"

His face showed frustration, but deep down he was very happy; it had been a long time since he had seen his father in such a good mood.
