Cannon Fodder Is King [Quick Transmigration]

Chapter. 11

　　Actually, it's not difficult to understand Elder Sister Meng's feelings.

On one hand, she's getting older and may lack the courage to divorce and start over. On the other hand, she probably doesn't want to burden Meng Zezhi too much. He Zhenli was useless, neither of his two sons had married yet, and the family hadn't saved much money. In such a situation, how could the He family easily let go of the Meng family's treasure?

Just as Sister Meng said, those who are barefoot aren't afraid of those who wear shoes. If the He family really starts to cause trouble, the Meng family might not be able to handle it.

To speak frankly, Sister Meng wants to keep the peace.

Everyone has their own relationship fate, and Meng Zezhi doesn't make judgments about this.

As for whether Sister Meng will be able to stand up for herself in the future, Meng Zezhi has already planned ahead. When he has extra money, he'll buy a building in the county town where predecessor used to live. The price won't be too high, maybe three million yuan at most. Then, the family will each have their own floor. Firstly, mother Meng was getting older and needed someone to take care of her. Secondly, second sister Meng and third elder brother Meng were watching. Even if Elder Sister Meng has a soft personality, the He family will have to behave if they want to live in peace.

Meng Zezhi doesn't mind helping with what he can.

Looking at the thick stack of draft papers on the table, Meng Zezhi rubbed his temples and then let out a heavy sigh of relief.

　　He knew that once the Goldbach Conjecture was proved, his task was halfway completed.

He looked up and glanced at the bottom right corner of the computer.

It was only November.

It has been exactly two months since he entered the laboratory.

The progress of his research was by more than half faster than he had expected.

Meng Zezhi pondered for a moment. He flipped through the draft paper and pulled out a sheet. Other than the three words "Variational Method" circled on the paper, there were also words like "Sieve Method," "Circle Method," and "Density Method" listed below.

His left index finger lightly tapped on the table as Meng Zezhi contemplated whether or not to go further—play a bigger game!

Just as he was thinking, a cup of coffee was placed on his right side.

Meng Zezhi turned his head to look, and it was indeed Zhu Zhengqing. He put down the draft paper in his hand and smiled, saying, "Thanks!"

Then he picked up the paper cup, blew away the steam above, took a sip, and felt much more refreshed as the warm coffee passed through his throat.

"Oh, by the way, how's your experiment going?" Meng Zezhi asked.

Zhu Zhengqing held the coffee cup and curved his eyes slightly. "The experiment is almost done, I've started writing my thesis, and I'm preparing for the next project."

"So fast!" Meng Zezhi exclaimed in surprise.

　"It's already considered slow." Zhu Zhengqing said helplessly.

Implicitly, it meant that the members of the project team were dragging him down.

"I see." Meng Zezhi smiled and just said, "Okay then, do you have time this afternoon? I promised to treat you to a meal, but it's been postponed until now."

"I do." Zhu Zhengqing's mood improved.

While working on the Goldbach Conjecture, perhaps because of the experience of successfully proving it using the variational method, for Meng Zezhi, using another method to calculate it seemed twice as easy.
