Chapter 402: Chapter 251: Not As Good As A Popular Celebrity? (Third update, seeking subscriptions)_1

Five-thirty in the afternoon.

The setting sun poured in through the window of the Peach Garden Apartment from the west end.

Ding Yue rubbed his groggy eyes; he finally woke up.

This sleep was the most comfortable he had experienced in days, mainly because previously he was overwhelmed by thoughts about the research data he had been working on with Professor Zhou Wen and others.

"Is it already five-thirty?"

He checked the time on his phone. He had been asleep from nine in the morning until now.

Gurgle~

His stomach grumbled.

Ding Yue was so hungry he didn’t want to move. He decided to make a call to Wen Ruohan.

"Hello, Principal Ding, are you awake? Many people tried to contact you today, but I stopped them all temporarily so you could rest well."

Wen Ruohan said excitedly over the phone.

"Brilliant job!"

Ding Yue praised Wen Ruohan and then asked, "Do you have time now, Wen Ruohan?"

"Uh-huh, go ahead, Principal Ding." Wen Ruohan had a class in the morning. Since Principal Ding went back to the apartment to rest, she had time to attend it.

Now, she was in her dorm, ready to fulfil any task Ding asked of her.

"Well, it’s five-thirty now. Could you get me some dinner from the second cafeteria? Remember to get me a garlic cucumber salad, and please add extra rice. Thank you."

Touching his stomach, Ding Yue decided that the first thing he would do after waking up was to eat and ignore everything else for now.

"Alright, Principal Ding, I’ll be there in 15 minutes!"

After finishing her sentence, Wen Ruohan hung up the phone and immediately ran to the second cafeteria.

Upon getting up, Ding Yue checked out his phone. His notification bar was filled and there were many missed calls.

Most of them were from unknown numbers. He wondered how they got his number.

Professor Zhou Wen also called half an hour ago, probably to check whether he had woken up yet.

The notifications also included various news messages.

Without a doubt, the updates Ding Yue saw were all about the third-generation semiconductor material, Gallium Nitride semiconductor material, and the collaboration between Mist City Arts and Science University and Jiangnan University of Science and Technology.

Just as Ding Yue expected.

Mist City Arts and Science University and Jiangnan University of Science and Technology announced the success of the Gallium Nitride semiconductor material technology at ten in the morning, and that became the headline news of the day.

Even though the Gallium Nitride semiconductor material technology may not be a big deal globally, it’s of great importance to Xia Country. The university that successfully implemented this technology naturally made the headlines today.

Of course, the biggest winners were Mist City Arts and Science University and Ding Yue himself.

Now, everyone knows that Principal Ding of Mist City Arts and Science University, is not just a handsome principal, but also a genius in the field of physics!

Ever since Ding Yue published his graduation thesis and earned the approval of three renowned semiconductor professors from Jiangnan University of Science and Technology, and jointly published a paper on semiconductor materials with them, he faced doubts at every step.

But with the achievements of today, no one would underestimate this young genius. In fact, they envied him.

No wonder Principal Ding’s sister is the College Entrance Examination champion this year. With such an awesome brother, how could she not excel?

Ding Yue swiped away the news updates in his notification bar. Then he checked out Twitter, where one topic was trending.

But it was not ranked highly.

Twitter Trending #27: Third-Generation Semiconductor Material

That was basically it.

Ding Yue checked out the top trending topic on Twitter, and surprisingly it was # Zhang Cheng Two-Year Debut Anniversary

Zhang Cheng is a famous celebrity.

Damn it!

Ding Yue was upset. How could the hard-earned accomplishments of him and the three professors be overshadowed by the popularity of a celebrity’s two-year anniversary?

This is absurd!

Upon seeing this, Ding Yue threw his phone aside, freshened up, and changed into a light blue T-shirt.

Just then, the doorbell rang.

Ding Yue went to open the door and saw Wen Ruohan holding the takeaway dinner, smiling brightly.

"Has it been fifteen minutes yet?"

Ding Yue checked the time. It had only been about ten minutes since Wen Ruohan set off to get the dinner.

"Hehehe, I ran all the way here, panting~panting~" Wen Ruohan finally couldn’t hold back and took deep breaths. "I was afraid you’d go hungry."

"I’ll manage. I won’t starve."

Ding Yue shrugged and smiled, "Have you eaten yet?"

"Not really," Wen Ruohan shook her head and laughed, "So, I ordered dinner for two. Hahaha, I am so smart!"

"Smart? Isn’t this just typical?" Ding Yue looked at Wen Ruohan, "You knew I’d ask about who called me today, and surely, you wouldn’t go back to the cafeteria to eat after delivering my food."

Wen Ruohan nodded, "Uh-huh."

Then she entered the apartment and placed the packed food on the dining table. Since the food was well packaged, Wan Ruohan began to unpack it, "President Ding, your garlic cucumber salad is freshly made!"

"Really?"

Upon hearing the garlic cucumber salad was freshly made, Ding Yue went over and started to eat immediately.

The fresh garlic cucumber salad has a crispy texture, but if left for some time, it loses its crunch and doesn’t taste as good.

"Yes, the chef in the cafeteria selected the freshest cucumber and specifically made it for you," Wen Ruohan nodded in agreement.

"Not bad. It’s pretty crunchy." Ding Yue was satisfied with the garlic cucumber salad.

"Principal Ding, after our school and Jiangnan University of Science and Technology announced the semiconductor news today, many people tried to reach you. And, our school has made it to the trending list again, hehehe."

Finally, Ruohan moved to the main point.

She was here to report to Ding Yue about who had tried to reach out to him.

"Who were they?" While eating, Ding Yue asked.

"Um... Let me see. I’ve made a memo." Ruohan took out her phone and opened the memo.

"Principal Zhao Siming from Jiangnan University of Science and Technology."

"Editor Hu from NTS News."

"Ms. Cheng Lian, the deputy director of Mist City TV Station."

"Director Xiao Wenxing from the Department of Education."

"Chairman Lei Ren from Dami Technology."

"CEO Mr. Wang Liwu from Guoxing Technology."

"Officer Liu from a unit of the Western Military Region!"

"Director Meng Xueyan from the Xia Country Academy of Semiconductor Material Research."
