Chapter 37 37【Peggy's tragic life experience】
Whether the grades of various subjects in the school or the master's thesis, they can all be faked.
Leonard used to be a licking dog before, chasing a girl madly, helping her correct homework and writing papers for her.
As a result, after he successfully entered Cornell University, he immediately turned his face and refused to recognize anyone.
Peggy Swanson is so beautiful, it is not difficult to find a few lick dogs at all, and her grades may be fake.
If that's the case, it's useless to recruit her.
Although she is very beautiful, it is really eye-catching to be around.
But Xiang Nan needs a powerful assistant more than a pleasing vase.
As long as he succeeds in his career, he can even be a Hollywood movie star or Victoria's Secret Angel.
Therefore, he would not do the stupid thing of throwing watermelon to pick up sesame seeds.
Immediately, he took out a calculation formula in "Super Asymmetry Theory" and handed it to Peggy to do the calculation to test her level.
After taking this question, Peggy was taken aback for a moment, and then asked in surprise, "Dr. Kusapari, are you also studying string theory?"
She originally thought that Xiang Nan only studied astrophysics, but she didn't expect that he was still studying string theory. And judging from this formula, his level is still very high.
"Yes, string theory is a key to unlocking the mysteries of the universe. As an astrophysicist who studies the universe, of course I have to get involved." Xiang Nan nodded.
"You're right." Peggy nodded, and then began to calculate.
Xiang Nan quietly pressed the timer.
…
Three hundred and seventy-two seconds later, Peggy put down the pen.
"Dr. Kusapari, I've already done the calculation." She handed the answer to Xiang Nandao.
Xiang Nan looked at the answer first, then flipped through the calculation process, then nodded with a smile, "Peggy, your ability is really good."
Her answers are accurate, the calculation process is concise and clear, and the calculation speed is extraordinary, which proves that her attainments in mathematics, physics, string theory, etc. are very high, and Xiang Nan is very satisfied.
"Thank you, so is it considered that I have successfully applied for the job?" Peggy asked with a smile.
"Probably." Xiang Nan nodded, "But I still have one last question, you can choose not to answer it. But if you answer it, I think it will be very helpful to enhance mutual trust."
"Okay, you can ask." Peggy nodded.
"Well, it's like this, I read your resume in detail, you were admitted to high school when you were eight years old, you can be said to be a genius among geniuses.
But why did you not enter university until you were twenty years old. During this period, what happened to you, can you tell me? Xiang Nan asked curiously.
Peggy will not only be his assistant in the future, but may also join his team to participate in the research of quantum navigation system and "Super Asymmetry Theory".
And these two studies are very confidential and priceless projects. So he needs to know Peggy to a certain extent before allowing her to join.
Otherwise, Peggy would have no choice but to be excluded from the confidentiality by him, and she would help him with trivial matters such as collecting information, organizing files, serving tea and water, and managing schedules every day.
Peggy was taken aback when she heard him ask this question, her smile disappeared, and she showed a painful expression.
Seeing such a beautiful girl with such a painful expression, Xiang Nan didn't take back the question.
"Well, when I was eleven years old, my parents divorced. The knowledge I learned didn't help me save their marriage. Since then, I have lost interest in learning." Peggy Taking a deep breath, he explained, "So at that time I dropped out of school and became a bad girl.
I lied, I stole, I drank, I got caught by the police several times, and my parents were so disappointed in me that they didn't want to raise me anymore.
Later, I could only stay in other people's homes, moving from family to family, and the longest time I stayed was only two months. Until finally, I met Grandma Maria, she took me in and saved me.
With her encouragement, I decided to go back to school and study again. So at twenty, I got into MIT. "
"I see." Xiang Nan sighed after hearing this.
I didn't expect Peggy's life experience to be so miserable, it really made people shed tears of sympathy.
"I'm really sorry, I didn't mean to hurt your feelings." He hastily apologized again.
"It's okay, to be honest, I feel a lot better when I say it." Peggy grinned.
"Yes, do you still want a cup of hot drink? How about hot cocoa?" Xiang Nan suggested guiltily.
Hot beverages are soothing, while sweetness is pleasurable.
Although he didn't intend to expose other people's scars, in fact he did cause harm to them, which made him feel very embarrassed.
"I had a good friend when I was a child, and he would provide me with a cup of hot drink when I was sad." Peggy recalled the past with a smile on her face.
"Sounds like a very good person." Xiang Nan nodded and said, then made a cup of hot cocoa for Peggy.
"Yes." Peggy sighed, looking disappointed.
"Okay, forget about these unhappy things. There is a saying in China, 'What happened in the past is like dying yesterday; what happened in the future is like being born today.'" Xiang Nan persuaded, "One should try to look forward as much as possible. Don't stay in the shadow of the past."
"Well, you're right." Peggy nodded.
"Okay, I've decided to officially hire you as my assistant." Xiang Nan stretched out his hand and said with a smile, "Peggy, welcome!"
"Thank you, Dr. Kusapari, I will work hard." Peggy smiled happily when she heard it.
"Just call me Raj." Xiang Nan also laughed.
…
Just then, there was another knock on the office door.
"Please come in." Xiang Nan raised his voice.
Immediately the door opened, and Howard poked his head in.
When he saw Peggy, his eyes lit up.
Immediately walked a few steps quickly, rushed to the person, bowed slightly, and said in French, "It's a pleasure to meet you, madam!"
Seeing him being so courteous, Peggy suddenly changed color as if being bitten by insects, and hurriedly took two steps back.
"Don't be afraid, this is my good friend, Howard Wolowitz." Seeing this, Xiang Nan quickly introduced, "He is an engineer, and he participated in the design of Mars rovers, Jupiter satellite probes, etc. made."
"Oh, hello." Peggy nodded to Howard, but still stayed away from him, obviously still very guarded.
"Very good." Howard didn't feel this, and said with a playful smile, "Beautiful lady, may I have the honor to treat you to a meal?"
"No need." Peggy flatly refused.
