When Mo Jingchun walked into the report hall holding his little sister, to be honest, he was shocked.
It was packed, a sea of heads.
The entire report hall, except for the first row of seats and the aisle that were still empty, was filled with people everywhere else.
Seeing Mo Jingchun and Candy enter, Yang Xiaoyu and the others waved their hands furiously.
On the contrary, Li Xuanyu, who often sees Mo Jingchun and Candy, said helplessly:
"Stop waving. So many people here are waving; how can he see us?"
Hearing the words whispered over her ear, Li Xuanyu momentarily lost her focus.
Why is the gap between people so big?
Clearly, everyone was not that different before.
"Is that his sister?"
"Of course, otherwise, would he be carrying her?"
"His sister is really cute."
"You can see that from so far away?"
"I just got the new smart myopia glasses from Candy Technology a few days ago."
"Bah! Show-off."
"Iām going to get them replaced tomorrow too since my bonus just came in."
Seeing the school leaders in the first row taking their seats, Mo Jingchun turned his head and said to Xia Xiaomin behind him:
"Take out my computer."
After speaking, Mo Jingchun gently said to his sister in his arms:
"Guoguo, stay by Xiaās side in a while, okay?"
The little one glanced at the sea of people, gripping her brotherās collar even tighter with her small hand.
Mo Jingchun said helplessly, "Then you can stay under the table, holding onto your brother and not running around, okay?"
"Okay!" Candy nodded her head.
Soon after, Xia Xiaomin came down from the stage.
"Boss, the computer and the projector are connected."
With everything prepared, the host took the microphone and went on stage.
"Leaders, teachers, students, good morning everyone."
"This morning, we are holding a special lecture by Nobel Prize in Medicine winner, our honorary professor, Mr. Mo Jingchun."
"Now, please give a warm round of applause to welcome Professor Mo!"
A burst of applause erupted like a torrent.
It was ceaseless!
"Thank you, thank you!"
"Iām very sorry, I brought a little one on stage."
"Hahaha."
No one in the report hall would say thereās anything wrong with Mo Jingchun bringing his sister on stage.
On the contrary, people were quite envious of this cute little one.
Who wouldnāt want a brother who dotes on his sister so much?
Mo Jingchun opened the prepared PPT and began speaking with a smile:
"Leaders, teachers, students, good morning everyone."
On the stage, Mo Jingchun was speaking eloquently.
Initially, many medical students were a bit disappointed when the lecture wasnāt about the leukemia special drug.
But as they listened more, they became increasingly interested.
While her brother was chattering non-stop, under the table, Candy, clutching her brotherās pants, stuck her little head out from beside the table, curiously looking at the audience below.
Why is it so quiet with so many people?
"Everyone knows that sorting algorithms are very important as they can affect the overall computation speed of computers."
"Anyone who studies sorting knows it used to get stuck at quadratic time complexity before being optimized to n log n. If sorting hadnāt progressed, could we expect todayās hot products related to data storage and computation to be so efficient?"
Mo Jingchun shook his head and said, "That would be like using a smartphone from five or six years ago, slow enough to make you doubt your life."
"Whether the sorting algorithm is the cornerstone of computer science, I dare not say, but in data operations, itās really the cornerstone of cornerstones."
At this moment in the report hall, some professors were already flipping open their notebooks excitedly, waiting for Mo Jingchunās next words.
Today, they might witness a new algorithm!
A sorting algorithm with even lower time complexity!
Under the expectant gazes of everyone, Mo Jingchun pressed the keyboard.
A few simple lines of code appeared on the projector.
Mo Jingchun said with a smile: "Many people outside are very curious about some of Candy Technologyās algorithms and have even tried to crack them."
"But Candy Technologyās exclusive encryption algorithm has left everyone disappointed."
"Today, we have publicly revealed a piece of algorithm code for the first time."
"Interested students can take a picture and study it well back home."
"Youāll find that the new sorting algorithm isnāt hard to understand."
The two-hour lecture ended, and it was already eleven-thirty.
The little one almost fell asleep sitting on his shoes, bored to tears.
The little oneās little head couldnāt figure out what was so fun about such a dull and boring talk.
Hmm... itās not as fun as riding a bike.
After having lunch with a group of leaders, Mo Jingchun finally felt free and relaxed.
To be honest, Mo Jingchun kind of missed Academician Chen.
Academician Chen wouldnāt keep asking questions during meals.
On the school playground, basking under the sun and feeling the warmth from the sunlight, Mo Jingchun sent messages to the counselor and classmates.
"Iām on the plastic runway."
Sitting on a chair in the grandstand, Candy dangled her little feet, wondering what she was thinking.
Maybe... probably... still thinking about the maltose in her brotherās computer bag.
"Sigh."
"Whatās wrong?" Mo Jingchun looked at his sister, puzzled.
Why is she sighing? What could a child be worried about?
"Nothing." Candy held her chin with both hands.
Candy thought, I canāt tell my brother that Iām still thinking about those maltose candies.
Those are to be given to the big brothers and sisters.
In less than ten minutes, Mo Jingchun saw a group of pretty girls running over.
"Mo Jingchun!"
"Long time no see!"
Feeling the class monitorās shoulder slap, Mo Jingchun winced in pain.
That was quite a heavy hand.
Seeing the little one curiously looking at the group of big sisters, Li Xuanyu took out the fruits hidden behind her back.
"Candy, this is for you."
Seeing her favorite strawberries inside, the little one didnāt immediately reach out, but instinctively tilted her head towards her brother.
Mo Jingchun handed all the maltose from his bag to his sister.
Under everyoneās gaze, the little one reluctantly took out a piece of maltose and handed it to Li Xuanyu.
"Here you go, big sister."
"So cute." Li Xuanyu smiled as she stuffed a big bag of fruit into the little oneās arms.
Seeing that his sister only gave one to Li Xuanyu, Mo Jingchun tapped her on the forehead.
"Theyāre all big sisters."
"Yes, yes, quickly call them sister."
Itās not the candy that matters, calling them sister is whatās important.
At this time, Yang Xiaoyu took out a prepared small gift.
With a smile, she said, "Call me sister, and Iāll give this to Candy."
The little oneās eyes lit up, "Big sister."
"Haha, so cute. Itās for Candy."
The little oneās eyes darted around, revealing a sly look.
The next second, the little one jumped off the seat and walked to each big sister in turn, calling them big sister and generously handing out the maltose.
After calling them all, the little one had a full harvest, her face breaking into a big smile.
What a great deal, totally worth it!
