1970s Gangster Couple NOT MTL

Xiao Xiao naturally agreed in a hurry.

Professor Wang led Xiao Xiao through the library, heading towards the school gate.

Xiao Xiao had thought the laboratory was on campus, but seeing Professor Wang heading outside, he guessed that perhaps Peking University had chosen another location to build a laboratory base.

At the school gate, two teachers and one student were already waiting.

Both teachers were from the physics department and had taught Xiao Xiao before, so he recognized them. However, he had never seen the other student. Professor Wang said to Xiao Xiao, "This is my student, your senior brother Zhang Heng."

Wearing glasses and looking very scholarly, Zhang Heng greeted with a smile as soon as he was introduced, "So you are Xiao Xiao. I've heard the teacher mention you often. The teacher says my comprehension in physics is far inferior to yours, so I hope to learn a lot from you in the future." He seemed very approachable, but the slight disdain hidden in his eyes was not completely concealed.

He had already secured a government-sponsored scholarship to study abroad in Country M, a feat akin to crossing a single-log bridge amidst a throng of contenders. How could he possibly be inferior to a young girl who had just started college?

Xiao Xiao pretended not to see the underlying sentiment and greeted him with a smile, saying "Hello, senior brother."

Upon hearing Xiao Xiao's response without a hint of modesty, Zhang Heng's smile remained unchanged, but internally, he labeled Xiao Xiao as an arrogant and rude person.

"Let's go, the car from Tsinghua University has arrived." A car stopped in front of Peking University's gate, and Professor Wang called everyone to get on.

Xiao Xiao was puzzled, "Teacher, why are we going to Tsinghua University?"

Upon hearing this, Professor Wang and the other two teachers felt a bit embarrassed. They had heard about the competition between Tsinghua and Peking University for talent. Objectively speaking, Tsinghua's physics department, whether in terms of faculty strength or other resources, far surpassed that of Peking University.

Now that Xiao Xiao had shown such talent, if she had initially chosen Tsinghua, she would have received better cultivation.

Professor Wang whispered, "This is a task assigned by higher authorities. Tsinghua has stronger capabilities, and their laboratories are more advanced than ours. So, this project is led by Tsinghua, with us assisting. It's a collaboration between the two universities."

Xiao Xiao responded with an "Oh," not really caring which laboratory was used. She just wanted to see if the lab could assist with her dimensional jumping experiment.

However, based on her understanding of the scientific level here, the likelihood that these laboratories could support her experiment was minimal.

After Professor Wang explained, the other two teachers and he were all paying attention to Xiao Xiao's expression, relieved to see no signs of regret or disappointment on her face.

Tsinghua University was not far from Peking University, and after about twenty minutes by car, they arrived.

If Peking University's gate was quaint and solemn, rich with cultural atmosphere, then Tsinghua's gate was grand and neat, with a sense of symmetrical beauty.

Just from the gates, one could discern the differences between the two universities.

Xiao Xiao raised an eyebrow, it seemed the teachers from Tsinghua were not wrong; Tsinghua indeed excelled more in science and engineering.
