Chapter 124: Chapter 124: He and His Ice Cream Are Very Sweet

Homemade ice cream for a birthday, this was probably the most special gift she had received today. It involuntarily made her think of the birthday noodles Shen Juanzhi used to cook for her when he was little.

During the period just after moving out from the Shen family, Shen Juanzhi invested all his money into a startup. Back then, he couldn’t even afford a decent house, so the father and daughter had to squeeze into a tiny rental. Shen Juanzhi would take her with him to work every day; even during the hardest times, he never thought of leaving her in someone else’s care.

Luckily, the company started picking up, and the father and daughter’s living conditions improved significantly — they not only bought a larger house, but they also hired a nanny specifically to take care of her.

But one thing stayed the same: each year, Shen Juanzhi would personally cook her birthday noodles.

When she was little, her birthday noodles were always sweet, as he would always mistake sugar for salt.

Even though it tasted a bit weird, Shen Weiyi would silently finish her bowl every time.

He was the second person who would go out of his way to cook her something on her birthday.

Collecting her thoughts, Shen Weiyi looked up and said to him, "Really, is there anything you can’t do?" This was already the second time she had asked this question.

Sheng Ting couldn’t help but chuckle, "Of course, there is. Want to know?"

Shen Weiyi nodded.

Sheng Ting, "I’ll tell you later!"

Shen Weiyi: ???

All right!

He wasn’t talking, so Shen Weiyi didn’t press any further.

She continued eating her ice cream and asked, "Did the experiment succeed?"

"Yeah, but there is still some experimental data and documentation that need to be organized and recorded." So, he would probably continue to be busy for some time.

"Congratulations!" Shen Weiyi said.

"Thank you!" Sheng Ting replied with a faint smile at the corner of his mouth, "By the way, how is the book I gave you last time coming along?"

"I’ve only read a part of it." Shen Weiyi admitted, a bit embarrassed. Many of Z University’s textbooks are self-edited, presenting a certain level of difficulty for her. However, luckily, they had Sheng Ting’s notes on them.

Her score was just enough to pass the admission threshold of Z University, and she was adjusted to the psychology program, whereas her target program was finance. To transfer majors in her second year, she had to ensure her midterm essential course grades’ average GPA was in the top 20% of her field. Z University was filled with top students, and since she had entered with the bare minimum grades, surpassing 80% of the students in her major would not be an easy task.

So, she had been studying ahead of time to make the upcoming school year a bit easier.

"No worries, take your time, you can ask me if there is anything you don’t understand." Very few could start self-studying university courses right after finishing their college entrance exams.

Sheng Ting admired the self-discipline she showed, sensing a kind of resilience in her and the ability to patiently focus on doing one thing for an extended period. This aspect was quite similar to his own.

"Okay!" Shen Weiyi nodded.

As far as she knew, he had been the top again in his major for this term’s exams.

With such a super top student around, she felt more confident about the prospect of transferring majors next year.

After chatting for a while, Sheng Ting looked at her and said, "It’s getting late, go up and rest." She must have been fairly exhausted to have fallen asleep so early.

"Yeah, you... be careful on the road," Shen Weiyi said.

"Good night!"

"Good night!"

Shen Weiyi watched until his car lights disappeared before turning to go back inside.

Glancing at the ice cream in her hand, she smiled softly and then scooped a big spoonful into her mouth: Mmm, very sweet!
