Chapter 11: Even A Genius Had Shortcomings

The days slowly passed by and Lu Zhou maintained the library and dorm lifestyle. Other than eating at the cafeteria or asking professor Tang for help when he was stuck, the trajectory of his life had not changed.

It was the first time his life had structure since he stepped into the university. Not to mention, he had maintained it for over two weeks.

He had not expected it at all.

Finally, Lu Zhou managed to finish his thesis before the 15th of June. He had also translated it from Mandarin to English.

It was worth mentioning that when Lu Zhou was discussing “Derivation of the Fourier partial series in relation with inversion functions” with Professor Tang, Professor Tang showed immense interest in Lu Zhou’s thesis. Professor Tang said that he would not mind helping Lu Zhou to edit his thesis.

Lu Zhou trusted Professor Tang’s editing skills when it came to the thesis.

Putting Tang Zhiwei’s kindness and generosity aside, he had worked many years as a professor and had published more theses than Lu Zhou had read books. It was rare for him to take notice in an undergraduate thesis. Additionally, the topic of his thesis was nothing special. Even if Lu Zhou solved this age-old problem, Tang Zhiwei would at most feel proud of his student.

Only supervisors who had low qualifications and could not even become professors would pressure students’ to complete their graduate projects. They would constantly chase after the students’ research results.

Lu Zhou did not know if there was an academic scum like that in a high-level institute like the University of Jin Ling. However, one thing he was certain was that Professor Tang was not one of them.

Having an experienced supervisor giving him advice would greatly increase his chance of successful thesis submission. Also, he believed that Professor Tang would be able to give valuable advice regarding the academic journal selection.

Therefore, Lu Zhou planned on asking Professor Tang to look over his thesis after he finished his math exams.

As for now, he would have to pray to God.

After all, other than advanced algebra, he still had to study for modern history.

The part that pissed him off the most was that for this year, it was a closed book exam!

Lu Zhou did not understand what was the point of studying all this.

Would studying this make me succeed?

Even though he had a million complaints, he still had to study and he still had to learn.

After all, it counted as two credit points and it would impact his GPA by quite a bit.

Lu Zhou persisted as he sat alone in his dorm. He picked up the textbook and started to read.

The results were as expected.

The knowledge did not sink into his brain at all!

Lu Zhou sat in his dorm. After a whole morning of reading, he felt dizzy. He threw the textbook on the table and gave up.

When one was tired, one just wanted to do nothing. Lu Zhou stared at the ceiling mindlessly for two minutes before taking out his phone.

Coincidentally, someone sent him a message. He opened up WeChat.

Chen Yushan: [Little brother, how come you didn’t come to the library today? I’m stuck on a question. Could you please help me?]
