But he soon noticed something was wrong.

According to what Cheng Qingqing said, her actions at this time should not be so swift.

And when he came home last night, he wasn't completely unconscious, he was always on guard.

He vaguely remembered that the person carrying him home smelled a little heavy, which made him feel a little offended.

Obviously, Cheng Qingqing is not that kind of person.

So the truth seems to have come to light.

This Cheng Qingqing was indeed lying to him, he should have thought of it earlier.

With such a black-bellied personality, it's unbelievable that she doesn't find something to do when she has nothing to do.

Seeing that Lu Shixian's expression returned to normal at this time, Cheng Qingqing really took off the disguise, with a look of disappointment on his face: "It's so boring!"

"I heard that you are going to publish a paper on "Cell" recently?"

When Lu Shixian heard it, he was a little surprised: "Even you know? The news is a bit well-informed."

Cheng Qingqing said indifferently: "In Davis, some gossip can't be hidden from people at all, okay."

At this time, she looked at Lu Shixian with surprised eyes for the first time: "It's just that I was surprised that you became the person in charge of a project as an exchange student. The most important thing is that you succeeded, which makes me think Somewhat unbelievable."

"A lot of people in David's house said in advance, let's see how you go back in despair."

"Looking at it now, it seems to have been hit in the face."

"What is David House?" Lu Shixian asked curiously.

"It's a forum website on ucd for academic exchanges. Generally speaking, as long as it's not confidential, you can see it on it." Cheng Qingqing still looks normal when she's not teasing people.

She quickly continued to ask: "By the way, is your exchange program time coming soon?"

"When are you going to return home?"

This sentence stunned Lu Shixian for a moment.

Yes, it seems that it is really time to return to China.

But he still has two papers to publish.

"Sister Qingqing, I'm leaving in a hurry."

Suddenly reminded, he left a word and left in a hurry.

On the way back to the laboratory, Lu Shixian kept thinking about this problem.

Going back is definitely going to go back, but definitely not now.

You know, he still has two research results that have not been released. Now that he goes back, his personnel status will change instantly. Wouldn't it be a waste of effort?

What's more, his research is not completely over yet.

Meet problems and solve problems.

Then it depends on whether the exchange period can be extended.

He took out his mobile phone and found the work number of Yanda International Exchange Center that he had stored before.

It's good to be careful beforehand because you never know what's going to happen in the future, and this just happens to come in handy now.

The other side is obviously used to such cross-border calls.

Ocean calls were quickly connected.

"Hello, this is the service hotline of the Yenching University International Exchange Center." The voice is not young, but he speaks English.

Of the two Chinese, Lu Shixian naturally doesn't need to speak good English.

So he quickly got the information he wanted in Chinese.

Generally speaking, exchange students must return to their home countries after the exchange period expires.

But it is not without exception. There are many examples of being stranded abroad due to force majeure.

If the exchange student really needs to extend due to practical factors, the person in charge should first apply for extension at the exchange center, and then the original college and the exchange school will send a letter to the school exchange center.

After the exchange center reports to the school leader for approval, if the review is approved, the exchange period can be extended appropriately if the visa can be extended.

So he only needs to take pictures of cats and tigers.

Knox is easy to talk about, but now he needs to inform his domestic mentor in advance.

I haven't seen Academician Xu for a year. Although I often send a text message to greet him during the New Year and holidays, I still miss him because we haven't seen each other in the end.

However, after the call was connected, it was indicated to him that he needed a request for a three-month extension.

Academician Xu didn't ask any questions, and agreed directly.

Afterwards, for the first time ever, I finally asked him how he was doing in the United States, and whether he was used to it.

This made him feel a little flattered and unbelievable.

Then, there were not many obstacles on the academy side.

He only needs to scan the personnel list in the laboratory project plan to confirm that he really needs an extension.

This is also quite normal, after all, it is impossible to finish researching at this time on time.

In fact, excluding the possibility of intentionality, more than half of Yanda’s exchange students in the past stayed abroad because of this.

After the letters from the two schools were sent to Yanda, Lu Shixian successfully applied for a visa extension for three months, and soon he got the news that the extension application was approved.

This matter seemed troublesome, but in the end it was resolved smoothly.

The time also slowly came to October 2012.

There are not many days until the new year.

I don't know if I will be able to go home before the Chinese New Year this year.

I talked to my parents on the phone, explained my current situation to them, and got their entrustment to take good care of myself.

Lu Shixian is immersed in the next step of research on plant stress response.

At that time, although their three research directions had been basically completed and some results had been formed, there was still room to dig deeper.

Whether it is for him or for the project team, this has great attraction.

At the same time, their second paper "On the Indirect Regulatory Mechanism of the Co-evolution of Plants and Pathogens" was recently re-submitted to the editorial department of the "Cell" journal.

It seems that everything is going according to plan in an orderly manner,

But as the time came to the beginning of October, the scientific research circles all over the world seemed to be sensational because of a grand event.

The 2012 Nobel Prize will be announced.

But it is not just for scientific researchers, or it is not an exaggeration to call it a national carnival.

In China, countless people are paying attention to the results of the Nobel Prize, which is far more than any previous year.

Because the writer Master Mo was successfully nominated to the shortlist for this year's Nobel Prize for Literature.

Even though there are many people who are prejudiced against literary awards, they have to feel proud of it.

Although many people unconsciously attribute the achievements of Chinese Americans to the entire nation, no one from mainland China has ever been able to win the award.

But today, this history may be broken.

Although the Nobel Prize has been questioned a lot, you have to admit that it is much stricter than most honors in the world.

Even only the winners can get the news of their awards one and a half hours before the awards, let alone others.

But there is one exception.

October 8, Stockholm time.

11:30 am.

Lu Shixian is sitting in the corner of a Chinese restaurant in Davis, watching the awards ceremony on TV.
