Wealthy Beauty in the 60s-Chapter 673 - 675: He Doesn’t Just Talk About Wanting to Become a Legend

Shitou received an invitation from a foreign university, hoping that after graduation Shitou could come abroad to pursue doctoral studies.

Even stating that Shitou could go anytime, the First University abroad also made an exception to admit Shitou.

Shitou also planned to visit the country and pursue a doctoral degree overseas, planning to do so in the next year or the year after.

"Next year you’ll be only twelve, wouldn’t that be too young?" Xia Xiao was somewhat uneasy about Shitou studying abroad alone, especially since she couldn’t accompany him.

Next year only twelve, even if it’s the year after, that’s only thirteen. Sometimes Xia Xiao felt like Shitou was defying the natural order of things and was very worried.

Shitou said, "I’m not young at all, and I’ll take care of myself. Besides, I can have a bodyguard to protect me."

"But a twelve-year-old master’s student, and a polymath at that, Shitou, aren’t you afraid that once overseas you’ll be dissected for study?" Xia Xiao voiced her concerns.

Shitou was silent for a moment before saying, "I want to see where my limits lie, and besides, existence is reasonable."

Well, Xia Xiao couldn’t say more; she always respected Shitou’s decisions.

Moreover, Xia Xiao saw Shitou’s diligence. Although he played too, he played less. He wasn’t like other children who ran around wildly, but he would touch upon and experience everything. It was just his nature that made Shitou seem like an old scholar.

But in the end, Shitou wasn’t a real child, and with this thought, Xia Xiao became more at ease.

Xia Xiao had finished transcribing Zheng Xianghong’s medical book. With the help of Li Min, she further refined the ancient medical text, allowing it to be published by Xia Kang’s side.

Initially, the publication of Zheng Xianghong’s medical book did not cause much of a sensation, but gradually the reputation grew better, and many sought the book.

Even pirated copies appeared.

Regardless, the publication of Zheng Xianghong’s medical book, although Zheng Xianghong had passed away, fulfilled his wish.

On Zheng Xianghong’s death anniversary, Xia Xiao took the medical book to his grave to burn, thinking that if Zheng Xianghong’s spirit in heaven saw his work, he would be very happy.

Once the transcribing of the medical book was completed, Xia Xiao felt extremely idle. In the research lab, the study of the energy stone had come to a conclusion for the time being, and there were no new findings.

And with Shitou around, Xia Xiao felt there was little use for her.

When people have nothing to do, they tend to become lazy, and Xia Xiao felt that was happening to her. She even became too lazy to walk around.

Ning Hui couldn’t stand Xia Xiao’s laziness and dragged her to the Care for Children Charity Foundation. Although Xia Xiao was the nominal president, Ning Hui managed most of it.

Nowadays, the Gao family’s momentum was getting stronger. After the Gong Family collapsed, the Wen Family also restrained themselves, and other families did not make any moves either openly or covertly.

Who knew if Elder Mrs. Wang reappeared, whether or not conflicts would arise, but over the years, understanding his own heart more clearly, he was remorseful for Elder Mrs. Wang, and truly cared for Grandma.

Many times, people would rather hurt themselves than others. Most humans are inherently good. But more often, the deepest hurt is inflicted not upon oneself but upon those closest to oneself.

And after all, one grows old and becomes less inclined to make trouble.

Madam Si had a wonderful time abroad over the years, but what she missed the most deep in her heart was home. Thus Hexuan personally called Madam Si and asked her to come back. Madam Si did not hesitate and returned.

Over the past few years, the two elders had been communicating through QQ, from initially hiding things to a tacit understanding at the end, without immediately exposing or revealing anything, but both accepting it.

With the grandparents’ relationship improving, Si Hexuan also retired honorably from his position. Moreover, inspired by Shitou, Si Hexuan felt as if he were useless compared to him. If he didn’t work harder, not to speak of Shitou, even Beibei could leave him behind.

Feiyi was transferred to M country as a diplomat, and Xiao Shu with Ye Jia also went to M country. Though on the surface, the positions were the same, the diplomat from a major country to a small country, the transfer was an informal promotion.

And at the age of thirteen, Shitou graduated with master’s degrees in biology, physics, chemistry, mathematics, nuclear science and technology, and computer science.

The nation was shocked, yet also very proud.

This also attracted widespread international attention, and many renowned universities from around the world sent invitations to Shitou. Ultimately, Shitou chose the First University in M country.

And Shitou also let everyone know that his desire to become a legend was not just talk.

Thus, at the age of thirteen, Shitou went abroad for his studies.

Because Feiyi, Ye Jia, and Xiao Shu were all in M country, Gao Jiaxing and Xia Xiao weren’t that worried about Shitou studying abroad.

"Grandpa, Grandma, remember to miss me, and Dad and Mom, don’t forget about me either," Shitou waved goodbye to his family before departing, embarking on a new Chapter of his life.

Xia Xiao couldn’t help her eyes from reddening, feeling a thick sense of reluctance, but she knew that the fledgling eagle must eventually spread its wings and fly from the nest.

With Shitou gone, Xia Xiao truly felt a bit lonely. After Gao Jiaxing became a high-ranking officer, he was busier still, not to mention he had many more meetings to attend.

But this year was also Gao Jiaxing’s seventieth birthday. Gao Jiaxing was seventy now, and Xia Xiao was sixty-seven.

Not long after the birthday celebrations, Gao Jiaxing applied for retirement.

Beibei transferred schools, and Si Hexuan experienced the loneliness of life being cold as snow. So, forsaking his grandparents, he followed Beibei to the new school.

"Where would you like to start?" At the Gao family residence, Xia Xiao spread a large map before Gao Jiaxing, asking which route he wanted to take.
