dear tiger tooth boy

When the results of the Olympic mathematics competition came out, Jiang Ning's photo occupied the front page of the newspaper.

In the Mathematical Olympiad held in Argentina this time, the South Korean team created three "firsts" for the first time—won the total score championship for the first time, five students won gold medals for the first time, and a student got full marks for the first time.

And the student who got full marks was Jiang Ning.

When the result came out, Jiang Ning herself was a little surprised.

The end of the drunken night was reconciliation.

He kissed her, went out and kissed his girlfriend in public—although it sounded absurd, she understood the anxiety and risk he took for it.No matter how painful and lonely it is to be in love, she has no position to leave him at this time.

He didn't coerce, and she couldn't escape either.

A few days after the reconciliation, TVXQ was "shut down" to Japan, and began the hard work of expanding the territory in a foreign country.Without telephone and internet, Jiang Ning and Yunhao completely lost contact.Jo Eun Bi terminated her contract with S/M Company and returned to her normal life as a high school girl.Although she still lives in Jiang Ning's apartment, in order not to disturb Jiang Xueba's study, Zhao Enfei either stays in her room, or goes out to date Lin Jinghao after class.And Zhao Chengbin and a group of friends went to Southeast Asia, which is the official start of his gapyear travel.

Everyone was busy in their own world, and Jiang Ning completely lost herself to mathematics.In fact, Jiang Ning's usual training performance is not the best in the team.As a sophomore in high school, her purpose of participating in the competition was even just to "accumulate experience for next year".But probably because of her relatively relaxed mentality and absolute concentration in training, coupled with her luck in the exam, she became a veritable dark horse in this competition.

The headlines of the news were also very sensational, Jiang Ning was dubbed a "Genius Girl".The small picture attached to her profile is a photo of her graduating from junior high school wearing a uniform. Her expression is indifferent, but her eyes are clear and determined.

When returning home, Jiang Ning's high school sent a representative to welcome the team with a big banner at the airport.The airport also waited for many airports, setting up short guns and waiting for the "genius girl" to appear.

The long journey is very tiring.Jiang Ning wore a comfortable summer cotton sportswear, tied a messy apple head, and hung a travel U-shaped pillow around her neck, and came out with a pair of sleep-deprived panda eyes.Before he finished yawning, the flash exploded in front of his eyes.

Jiang Ning was dumbfounded.

The dazed photo was enlarged and hit the headlines.In the TV news, there are still clips of her "glorious return" wearing a crumpled tracksuit with a dull face...

TVXQ's promotional activities in Japan came to an end, Yunho and the others returned to China a few days earlier.

Jiang Nongsheng talked with Yun Hao on the phone: "Why should the on -site map so big ah ah ah ah ah ah ah! Obviously the junior high school graduation photo can show my temperament! Smart, wise, calm and calm! Why do you want to enlarge the photo of the airport, which looks like a mental retardation to me! These reporters really have bad intentions!"

Yunho burst into laughter on the phone: "Now you know how hard it is for us to go to the airport every time. You can't dress too formally, but you can't really dress casually. Otherwise, newspapers will publish pictures like yours. This photo is the same... ha ha ha ha... same mentally retarded photo."

Jiang Ning wants to fry: "What? You say I'm mentally retarded?"

Yunho felt wronged: "Didn't you say it yourself..."

Jiang Ning exploded: "That can only be said by myself! You can't say it! You have to refute me!"

Yunho laughed so hard: "Hahahaha, good, good, refute you, refute you... We genius girls are the smartest. There are not many people in the whole world who get full marks in international Olympic competitions."

Jiang Ning snorted, but the corner of her mouth couldn't hide a smile.

"Then what reward do Jiang Ning want?"

"I think..." Jiang Ning's voice rose, but soon fell down, "Forget it..."

"How can I forget it? Tell me. What gift do you want? As long as I can do it..."

Jiang Ning smiled helplessly: "You can't do it."

Yunho was stunned for two seconds, and his tone was full of helplessness: "You still want to go to the amusement park?"

Jiang Ning didn't answer, but just changed the subject with a smile: "I can't tell you anymore. I have to go to school to give a report to my classmates in the afternoon, and I will be interviewed by some newspapers in the next few days."

"Yes, yes," Yunho laughed, "We Jiang Ning are busy people now, after all, we are genius girls."

"Of course. You are only allowed to hang up on me, this time I can finally vent my anger." Jiang Ning said so, but she still didn't press the phone.

"Go quickly." Yunhao knew what she was thinking, "I should have half the sky next week, and then I will find a way to see you."

"Yeah!" Jiang Ning nodded with a smile, and hung up the phone with satisfaction.

The reports and interviews in the past few days were similar, they all praised Jiang Ning and asked her about her methods of learning mathematics.Jiang Ning cooperated with the arrangement of Teacher Song who led the team at that time, and dealt with the reporters' interviews with a smile, but she didn't think it was too much of a burden.

It wasn't until Teacher Song brought a reporter from the school newspaper of Seoul National University that Jiang Ning had to think about whether she should accept the life prospect opened up for her by this math competition.

The school representative who came with the reporter brought Jiang Ning a gift—a letter of early admission to the Department of Mathematics of Seoul National University.

Teacher Song was happy for Jiang Ning, smiling from ear to ear.Jiang Ning held the only admission notice, but felt at a loss.

She was surprised to find that she wasn't very happy.

After Jiang Ning's deeds were greatly exaggerated by the media, Ding Caijing finally had time to meet Jiang Ning.

Ding Caijing took Jiang Ning to a quiet western restaurant and said that he would celebrate Jiang Ning's birthday this year in advance.This is the first time Jiang Ning has received such a grand "reception" from Ding Caijing since arriving in Korea.She hasn't had a birthday since her father died.

Ding Caijing looked at the notice from Seoul National University for three seconds, then sighed calmly and said, "Okay."

Jiang Ning pretended not to understand and stared straight at her.

Ding Caijing's tone was mixed with rare helplessness and awkward pride: "Since you have achieved this level, I will not force you to become an actor. You can figure it out yourself. If you really like mathematics, go to school." Bar……"

Ding Caijing lowered his head and smiled, and took a sip of his wine: "Since you have achieved this level..."

A gleam of victory flashed in Jiang Ning's heart.In the end she won.

However, the pleasure of "defeating" Ding Caijing did not last long.Before the meal was finished, Jiang Ning's heart was almost filled with a thought.

At first, the idea was only hazy.But gradually, the voice in her heart became louder and louder, and she couldn't pretend she didn't hear it.

The voice kept saying, I don't want to go, I don't want to go.

She didn't want to go to the mathematics department, even the mathematics department of Seoul National University.

She naturally doesn't hate mathematics, and it can be said that she likes mathematics.However, one of the key motivations for studying mathematics hard at that time was because she had something she wanted to obtain through mathematics.

I got into my favorite high school with my own ability, and now, I got early admission from Seoul National University.

But, it seems, that's all.She never thought that she would be entangled with mathematics for a long time.

When Ding Caijing compromised and said "Okay" and said to let her do what she likes, the motivation in her heart disappeared.

Everything she did was just to disobey her.Now that she is no longer in the way, she has little motivation to move forward.

Jiang Ning was a little disappointed in herself.She didn't know she was so naive.

What she doesn't want to admit is that this childishness is because she cares about Ding Caijing more than anyone else, and cares about this mother who is cold-eyed.

She doesn't want to go.

There is another very important reason for not wanting to go.

There are many posters of the latest TVXQ in the room.Jiang Ning held up the newspaper that published her award-winning news, looked left and right, her eyes often returned between the poster and the newspaper.

No matter how you look at it, it's not right.

It doesn't matter that junior high school graduation photo with cold eyes, or that sloppy airport photo.No matter how you look at it, it's not right.

Next to that radiant Asian idol, should a serious female mathematician stand?Or, a prim female professor?

It's not that two people must have similar occupations when they get along.After all, the life of a star is nothing more than daily necessities—at worst, more expensive necessities. Work is work, and life is life. No one stipulates that mathematicians or university professors cannot be with Hallyu stars.

However, one person is in the impetuous and noisy entertainment circle, while one is in front of the quiet and lonely academic circle.Can two people in such two circles who have no intersection, and can even be said to have very different concepts, really go on smoothly?What are we talking about together?One person wants to practice dancing, shoot TV dramas, day and night are reversed, and one person wants to publish papers, research various conjectures, and read at night.Is it really possible to live like this?

Love in the world is in various forms, indeed anything can happen.Two people who are not suitable for others may live a very happy and harmonious life.

However, Jiang Ning did not have that confidence.

Although she didn't think too far, if she went to the Department of Mathematics, her personal plan for the next five years would be to make her go away from Yunho.

Seoul National University's invitation to Jiang Ning is full of sincerity.Tuition fees are waived, additional scholarships are provided, and after completing two years of study in South Korea, as long as they pass the assessment, they will be subsidized to go to the United States for further study.

The mathematics research system in the United States is more mature, and the basic treatment and development prospects of researchers are second to none in the world.For the future, the best plan is naturally to continue studying in the United States.

However, if we follow this broad road, is it still possible for her and Yunhao?

Jiang Ning looked at the newspaper in her hand, feeling at a loss.

She already knew exactly what kind of state she was in when she fell into mathematics.In this regard, she is very similar to Yunho at work, she always devotes herself wholeheartedly.

The difference is that Yunho can be strong enough to take care of many things, he can be the most responsible Captain Zheng at the same time, be a filial son, a caring brother, and a boyfriend who can take care of her and calm her emotions.

But she, Jiang Ning, couldn't do it.

Even if they don't go to the United States, the work pressure and misunderstanding brought about by such a completely isolated circle will eventually drive the two of them further apart.

She knew she had to make a choice.

Now no one is forcing her, and there is nothing to fight for.

She herself had to make a choice.

The author has something to say:

The last chapter was a bit cruel, but we didn't break up... (I wrote ambiguity again, covering my face) Forgive me for not replying to the comment, I will write it as soon as possible~ Speaking of the kiss on the street with the clothes covering the head, Yunho It was mentioned in the interview (^_^)
