Save the Bachelor of Heaven

After eating, go back to the office.

"Raj, what project are you and Howard working on? They're still secretive, and you don't want me to know." Peggy asked curiously.

"This is really going to be kept secret for the time being." Xiang Nan laughed, "It's not aimed at you, but kept secret from everyone."

"The secrecy factor is so high?!" Peggy said in surprise, "Could you be developing a time machine?"

"Of course it's impossible." Xiang Nan laughed. "The time machine is full of logical paradoxes. Unless it is a god who can ignore logic, it is impossible for anyone to build it."

Then he waved his hand and said, "Okay, don't ask any more questions. When I can let you know, I will definitely tell you. When you shouldn't know, I won't tell you if you ask again." Xiang Nanbai He waved his hand and smiled.

Hearing what he said, Peggy became even more curious, she blinked her big eyes at Xiang Nan, and asked coquettishly, "Are you really refusing to tell me?"

Xiang Nan shook his head resolutely.

"Hate it! Even if you want to tell me now, I don't want to know." Peggy said coquettishly.

Xiang Nan smiled slightly.

After returning from the inspection in Geneva, the relationship between them went further, and Peggy was much more lively and lovely than before.

In other words, she was originally a lively and lovely girl, but after her family's misfortune, she froze herself layer upon layer.

...

Xiang Nan didn't celebrate Christmas at all.

On the one hand, he is not American and does not believe in Christianity, so naturally he will not celebrate it specially.

For one thing, his friends didn't like to celebrate either.

Leonard grew up with a shadow of Christmas.

Because when their family celebrates Christmas, they don't give each other gifts, but each write a paper explaining "the significance of the festival to human society". Then discuss in groups and grade each other, and he can only get a "C" each time.

Howard is Jewish, but celebrates Hanukkah instead of Christmas. He also invited Xiang Nan, Peggy, Penny, Leonard and others to his home for the holidays, but they were unanimously rejected by everyone.

Peggy didn't like Christmas either. She was separated from her parents at an early age, and Christmas is a time for family reunions. So every Christmas was a sad day for her, not worth celebrating at all.

Therefore, Xiang Nan didn't hold a party, but spent it as if nothing had happened.

...

After Christmas, the new year, 2008, soon arrives.

At the beginning of the new year, Xiang Nan, Howard, and Leslie started the development of the prototype of the quantum navigation system.

In the name of studying superfluids, they applied for a start-up grant, and then manufactured it according to the previous design.

Among them, Howard contributed the most. As an engineer, he is responsible for processing parts, assembling equipment, and manufacturing prototypes little by little from scratch.

Xiang Nan, Howard, and Leslie were also very excited to see this prototype machine gradually come from paper to reality.

"In a month at most, our prototype will be ready." Howard said happily.

"That's really great. After so many days of hard work, it's finally not in vain." Leslie also said happily.

They have been busy for three months, sacrificing their rest time at night and leisure time on weekends and holidays, consuming countless energy, physical strength, and brain cells, and now they finally see the results.

"Don't get too excited, both of you, I need to be clearer here." Xiang Nan coughed lightly, "Now is a critical moment for the development of the prototype, and the more critical the moment, the more careful it is.

Each of us must keep our mouths shut, and we are not allowed to reveal a word to outsiders except the three of us. Otherwise, once the news gets out, our efforts will fall short, and our hard work may be in vain. "

Leslie and Howard were taken aback for a moment, then nodded.

"A few days ago, Leonard saw that I was with you all day, and quietly asked me what project I was working on. Fortunately, I didn't tell him at the time." Leslie said with fear.

"Yes, although Leonard is our friend, it's still inappropriate to tell him now." Xiang Nan nodded.

Leonard is a good guy and very talented, Xiang Nan likes him very much. But it's a pity that he has Sheldon by his side, who is a troublemaker.

Once provoked, it will be terrible.

Sheldon has no sense of teamwork, confidentiality, or law. According to Leonard, "He's the bad guy who escaped from the villain's lab."

If he knew about this project, he would definitely find a way to sabotage it. At that time, all their hard work will be for naught, so they have to guard against it.

...

After the New Year, in addition to being busy with manufacturing quantum navigation systems, Xiang Nan also found time to write three papers, "Evidence that the 125 GeV Higgs Boson Decays into a Pair of Tau Leptons", "Large Hadron Collider The left-right symmetry and charged Higgs boson", "Heavy quark mass effect in the production of Higgs boson at the Large Hadron Collider", etc., continue to score points for themselves.

The release of these papers has added brightness to the aura of Xiangnan's academic star.

This made him not only the darling of Caltech's Department of Physics, but also a well-known young talent in the field of physics in the world.

Even Raj's home country, India, has been reporting heavily on him, proud of his achievements.

The headlines of individual reports are so shameful that Xiang Nan is a little ashamed.

Such as "God's Chosen Son, Dr. Kusapari, under the guidance of God, successively discovered the second earth and the God particle that constitutes all things. "

"The Light of India, Discover the God Particle!" ", "The pride of all India, Dr. Kusapari, who is superior in wisdom, has solved the millennium physics problem! "etc.

These reports made Xiangnan's popularity soar in India. Many top Indian universities, such as Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi University, Jawaharlal Nehru University, etc., have invited him to give lectures.

There are even many universities that have hired Xiang Nan as a visiting professor. As long as he goes to give a few lectures every year, he can get an annual salary of 100,000 US dollars, and he will be reimbursed for round-trip air tickets and hotels.

However, Xiang Nan was busy with the research of the quantum navigation system, so he politely declined these invitations.

Even so, his reputation in India remains undiminished.

And this also brought great glory to the Kusapari family, which made the Kusapari couple very happy.

"Rajesh, you have done a great job of winning honor for the family." Dr. Kusapari praised.

"Raj, MAMA knew you were a good boy with abilities, and you did not disappoint me." Madam Kusapari also praised.

"Thank you PAPA, thank you MAMA." Xiang Nan also smiled.

"Rajesh, in order to reward you, Dad decided to give you a Maserati." Dr. Kusapari said again.

"PAPA, I drive this BMW very smoothly now, so I don't need to change the car." Hearing this, Xiang Nan immediately refused.

"Okay, then I'll give you the money, and you can buy whatever you like." Dr. Kusapari said with a smile.
