Chapter 286 Modeling Competition
"Click."
The bathroom door was opened, and Xu Qingshan, who was leaning against the guest bedroom door, looked up and saw Jiang Huanxi, wrapped in a bath towel and with a pink face, looking at him in surprise.
"Have you finished washing?"
Xu Qingshan asked nonsense, but in fact he quickly adjusted his mental state and calmed down his heartbeat.
"Well, do you want to wash it?"
Jiang Huanxi wiped her hair with a towel, turned off the bathroom heater, and turned sideways towards the room.
"Okay."
Xu Qingshan nodded.
Until I stood under the shower head and warm water sprayed out.
The steaming heat filled the entire bathroom, and the fragrance from when Jiang Huanxi took a shower was still there.
Xu Qingshan let the hot water slide over his skin. The water, which was obviously extremely soft, touched him gently like a hot knife.
Jiang Huanxi is in the master bedroom, and Tong Tong is in the second bedroom.
Jiang Huanxi's posture made it clear that he would live at home from now on, but Tong Tong obviously had some minor mental and emotional problems, which might recur.
For Xu Qingshan, there is undoubtedly a thunder hanging over his head that may explode at any time.
But let’s look at it optimistically.
That is, at this time, both Jiang Huanxi and Tong Tong knew about each other's existence, but they only cared about it, instead of trying to resist, or being disappointed and wanting to leave.
Xu Qingshan, who is well versed in women's art of war, knows very well that this means that there is still room for maneuver.
The scumbag vision he wants to achieve is not impossible.
After taking a shower, Xu Qingshan couldn't help but take a second look at Tong Tong's still closed door. The only difference was that the lights in the room finally turned on.
After wiping his hair, Xu Qingshan opened the door of the master bedroom.
I saw Jiang Huanxi wearing a thin silk nightgown, sitting in front of the dressing table and dressing up seriously.
"Didn't you just take a shower? Do you still need to put on makeup?"
Jiang Huanxi usually doesn't wear much makeup, focusing on her natural beauty and fresh skin.
Xu Qingshan asked curiously as he held an electric dryer, his upper body naked and his lower body wrapped in a big towel.
"Well, put on plain makeup."
Jiang Huanxi stared at herself in the mirror. She also carefully checked every corner of her face and the ends of her hair.
Xiaojiabiyu's face, which was originally cute, now looks much brighter with the light makeup that straight men would ask if she is bare-faced.
Xu Qingshan was partial to Jiang Huanxi's collagen-less face, and he felt more or less amazed by her at this moment.
"How is sister Tong Tong?"
Jiang Huanxi finally put on a little lipstick and pursed her lips.
"She just overslept. She will get up to eat in a while. I will cook for you."
Xu Qingshan wisely put on a T-shirt and big pants, and prepared to cook on the small balcony next door.
But he was stopped by Jiang Huanxi.
"No, I just called the ethnic restaurant next to the school. They have four dishes and one soup. They will start delivering food in winter."
Xu Qingshan felt that Jiang Huanxi's state in front of him was a little strange.
In the past, Jiang Huanxi had a personality of not competing for other things, and the purpose was to downplay his own presence and influence.
But since Tong Tong's arrival, Jiang Huanxi's attitude has gradually strengthened.
She showed a certain amount of control and possessiveness.
In fact, when a person is very possessive of another person, there is a high probability that he or she will be emotionally trapped and unable to extricate himself.
Xu Qingshan has read countless flowers and knows this well.
Most people would think that possessive and controlling people occupy a dominant position in relationships.
Not really.
When a person is truly possessive and unbalanced in a relationship and wants to control the relationship between himself and his partner as much as possible, then he or she will take the initiative to give up his or her dominance.
Because whether the other party wants to continue loving you or wants to leave, it all depends on you.
This also means that Xu Qingshan will confirm that he has real dominance in emotions.
Not long after, Jiang Huanxi's cell phone rang, and there was a knock on the door. Xu Qingshan went to get the meal and put it on the small table in the room.
"Then I'll ask Tong Tong to come out for dinner? She may be a little scared sometimes."
Xu Qingshan said.
"Okay."
Jiang Huanxi raised her eyes to look at Xu Qingshan and adjusted her posture. Xu Qingshan also understood what she meant.
demonstration.
But he didn't pay attention. Xu Qingshan went out and knocked on Tong Tong's door.
"Tong Tong, come out to eat."
"Click."
The cold-looking girl opened the door, and Xu Qingshan felt helpless for a moment when he saw her.
I saw that the girl who looked confused and unpainted just now now had makeup on her face.
"Brother."
Tong Tong's title was not as lively as before. She just raised her eyes and looked at Xu Qingshan, then squeezed past him and walked to the master bedroom.
The war between two women can smell the smoke before it even starts.
Return to the master bedroom for dinner.
Although Xu Qingshan had already grasped the left and right sides, sitting between the two girls, he still felt like he was walking on thin ice.
Moreover, the two of them did not remain silent, nor did they use guns and sticks when talking.
They communicated and chatted very normally.
But the more normal it is, the more abnormal it is.
Because they were all talking calmly about what happened when they met Xu Qingshan.
Xu Qingshan could only put as much food into their bowls as possible, trying to use food to reduce the frequency of their chatting.
But it’s okay if he doesn’t pick up the food.
As soon as I put the food on the plate, I got all kinds of looks.
Worrying not about scarcity but about inequality, he gave Jiang Huanxi a pair of chopsticks. Tong Tong over there stopped eating and just stared at Xu Qingshan with his bowl in hand.
And Jiang Huanxi's eyes reminded Xu Qingshan: I don't mind if you give her chopsticks, but as a girlfriend, I must give her more chopsticks.
When there was only one piece of chicken left on the plate, as soon as Xu Qingshan stretched out his chopsticks, he found that the eyes of the two girls were fixed on him, as if they were competing, waiting for him to give the last piece of chicken to whom.
Xu Qingshan was heartbroken and stuffed the chicken directly into his mouth.
"Okay, I'll clean up after dinner. You two sit down. Tong Tong will bring you the content of today's training later and I'll explain it to you."
"Brother, I will accompany you to wash."
As soon as Xu Qingshan stood up, Tong Tong followed suit.
"Tong Tong is participating in the chemical competition training, right? Then Qingshan, you go wash the dishes, I will tell her."
Jiang Huanxi stared at Tong Tong and said softly.
"I don't remember that my brother didn't say that sister Huanxi had participated in competitions, right? Besides, sister Huanxi studied mathematics and physics. Maybe chemical competition is not suitable for her?" Tong Tong narrowed his eyes and looked down at Jiang Huanxi.
But she could only see calmness on Jiang Huanxi's face.
"Chemistry and physics reach the same goal by different paths. Although I have never participated in a competition, I have always done the competition questions."
As Jiang Huanxi spoke, his hands were already helping to clear away the dishes.
"Tong Tong is still a little sister after all. She just needs to study hard and leave other things to the adults to handle."
With that said, Jiang Huanxi also stood up.
Originally, the room was not very big, so I didn't feel it when I was sitting. But when the three of them stood up, the space seemed a little narrow.
"Okay, I'll wash the dishes while you sit down."
Xu Qingshan patted Jiang Huanxi's butt without leaving any trace. Jiang Huanxi, who was still maintaining his momentum, was suddenly attacked. His beautiful eyes glanced at him with a sullen expression.
She was angry that Xu Qingshan was trying to undermine her.
Tong Tong's face over there didn't look very good. While she was happy about her brother's favoritism towards her, she was also uncomfortable with the private interaction between Xu Qingshan and Jiang Huanxi.
But before she could say anything, Xu Qingshan put his free hand on her hair and rubbed it vigorously. The originally neat hairstyle was instantly messy.
"Brother!"
Tong Tong also looked at Xu Qingshan dissatisfied.
Xu Qingshan entered the balcony carrying a plate and bowl.
Although he attracts hatred, it's all just sentimental. Don't you see that the tit-for-tat situation in the master bedroom is difficult to establish again?
In Yan Dongyuan’s house.
Xu Qingshan relied on these little tricks to maintain the relationship between the family.
Although Jiang Huanxi is still wary of Tong Tong, Tong Tong still covets Jiang Huanxi's position.
But due to her age, she had no choice but to give up.
Unexpectedly, under Xu Qingshan's constant manipulation, the two little girls saw many times where each other was teased and embarrassed, the atmosphere became more and more relaxed, and their relationship became much more harmonious, even if it was just a superficial relationship.
Xu Qingshan's life is becoming more and more comfortable and relaxed.
Every day when I wake up at home, I go to the Institute of Mathematics Research with Jiang Huanxi to do some work and come back when the time comes.
It's just that his ideas on the Riemann Hypothesis have not made any breakthrough recently, so he can only put it aside for the time being, review some papers submitted by academic friends, and exchange opinions with academic friends.
After participating in ICML and academic seminars held at Princeton, Xu Qingshan also began to have some connections in the academic circle.
It's just that having connections also corresponds to the energy required to maintain them.
January is not over yet.
Xu Qingshan was thinking about a suitable day for the work to end, so that he could take Jiang Huanxi and Tong Tong back to spend the winter vacation.
As a result, he received a call from the Academy of Information Science and Technology in his office.
"Dean Mei, why did you suddenly remember to call me?"
Xu Qingshan sat at his desk, looking at the calendar in front of him, scribbling on the calendar with Bi in his hand.
"Qingshan, I recently heard from the professors at the Information Science and Technology Center that the project you are cooperating with has begun to produce small milestone results. Why haven't I seen you to talk about it?"
Mei Hong's voice sounded cheerful.
After all, the emergence of Xu Qingshan this year has brought the greatest gain to the entire Peking University. Apart from the Institute of Science and Technology, it is the Institute of Information Science and Technology.
And compared with the attitude of the Academy of Information Science and Technology, which used almost all the resources that could be piled on Xu Qingshan, the Academy of Information Science and Technology seems to be using a small amount to make a big difference.
Things that require a lot of effort have already been taken care of by Shuyuan.
"What is there to say? If the big results cannot be achieved in the end, then no matter how many small results are achieved, they will be of little value. It is not too late to wait until the big results come out."
Xu Qingshan smiled and put a cross on a date on the calendar.
"Okay, but the main reason I'm calling you today is to ask you, do you want to participate in the American College Student Mathematical Modeling Competition during the winter vacation this year?"
Mei Hong asked.
It's just that his questions were full of cleverness.
"I know that with your current status in the world, this thing doesn't mean much to you, but you have gone to the ICPC competition. For your little girlfriend, the modeling competition is actually quite useful."
Mei Hong didn't take action on Xu Qingshan at all, but on Jiang Huanxi.
Since the last contact.
How could Mei Hong not know what is the correct way to invite Xu Qingshan to compete for the prize?
"Modeling competition, when is it about?"
Xu Qingshan did not refuse, but asked.
"This year, from February 18th to 23rd, the specific schedule will have to wait two weeks to be announced."
Mei Hong thought for a while.
He recently heard that Xu Qingshan had a younger sister who came to school for training and was now living with Xu Qingshan, so he immediately added.
"At that time, you should all be at home. As for teammates, it is not convenient to communicate online."
Mei Hong continued.
"Yangshu is not very willing to participate. Qingshan, I know that you are actually strong enough to compete alone, but in fact, high school students can also participate in the modeling competition. With your level, I will take you with me. My girlfriend and your sister can also get the award. If there is an award by then, I can ensure that your sister will be admitted to our Peking University. I will be the one to choose all the colleges.”
Xu Qingshan smiled when he heard this and joked to Mei Hong.
"Lao Mei, you are not kind."
Xu Qingshan drew a circle on February 18th.
"Since you know that I have a sister, isn't it basically guaranteed that my sister will be admitted to the chemical competition training camp?"
Mei Hong didn't feel embarrassed about being exposed, but smiled.
"Aren't I giving you a double guarantee? If she doesn't like to study chemistry, it would be great to come directly to our Academy of Information Science and Technology to study computer science."
"Lao Mei, not only are you being unkind, you're also taking food and taking it away from me."
Xu Qingshan laughed and cursed twice.
"Okay, let's not go into too much detail. I remember that the awards of this competition can be counted as comprehensive evaluation and scholarship selection. I will participate. The announcement was sent to remind me."
"Okay, okay! I knew you would participate!"
Mei Hong was overjoyed.
Although the beauty award of a college student mathematical modeling competition is not that important.
But if the person participating is Xu Qingshan, it will send a signal to the outside world that Xu Qingshan attaches great importance to the Academy of Information Science and Technology.
You think Mei Hong is happy because Xu Qingshan came and won the award. In fact, he was happy because Xu Qingshan came and won the award. He can use this to apply for more resources and conduct more publicity to further promote I am delighted with the development of the Academy of Information Science and Technology.
"Okay, let's just say it. Hang up. I'm busy here."
Xu Qingshan said something perfunctory to Mei Hong, who wanted to continue chatting, and continued to draw on the calendar.
Before he had time to think about it, the door to the office of the Institute of Mathematics Research was pushed open.
Xu Qingshan raised his eyes inadvertently.
"Tong Tong, why are you here?"
Xu Qingshan was stunned for a moment. He had never told Tong Tong the location and office of the Institute of Mathematics Research?
"Brother! I have been selected into the final four players of the national team!"
Tong Tong's face was full of excitement and he held a test paper in his hand.
