Reborn in the ’80s as a Group Favorite Bigshot – Chapter 35

Chapter 35: She Was Indeed as Unique as Ever

Hearing Song Chus words, Gu Yues interest was immediately piqued.

He handed the manuscript on the table to her and teased, “Then Ill have to trouble Academic God Song to provide some guidance.”

Song Chu didnt stand on ceremony either. She took the manuscript and said, “Alright, Ill show you what Academic God Song is capable of in a bit.”

She wasnt proficient in mechanics, but before the apocalypse, she had won the national physics competition and understood many principles.

“You eat first, Ill study this.” She pulled up a chair and sat down, taking a new piece of scratch paper from the table to start sketching.

Gu Yue chuckled at her serious demeanor. He took out his meal from the basket and began to eat.

After dividing the meat, Song Chu asked Song Lao Er to deliver some to the cowshed and, along the way, learn how to make braised pork.

Song Lao Er loved to eat and was also very talented in cooking. Although his cooking was far inferior to Old Zhaos, it was still better than that of the state-run restaurant.

Gu Yue realized that his decision to have Song Chu handle his meals was a wise one. The food for the past few days had been very much to his liking, and he was eating quite well.

He finished his meal at a leisurely pace, and by then, Song Chu had also finished her study of the manuscript.

Song Chu put aside her usual playful demeanor and began to explain her thoughts very seriously, “From the perspective of dynamics, I think this component is not yet fully developed. Look at this…”

At first, Gu Yue didnt pay much attention. The machinery involved complex concepts, not something a junior high school student could easily understand.

Moreover, he had heard from the villagers that Song Chus grades in school were not very good.

He initially thought she was just joking, but the more he listened, the more astonished he became.

Based on the issues Song Chu pointed out, Gu Yue discussed them with her, occasionally using technical jargon that Song Chu was able to understand completely.

He quickly discovered that she had a deep grasp of physics.

Furthermore, some of the things she knew were very advanced, things he had never encountered before.

Based on Song Chus suggestions, the two further discussed and finally confirmed the first version of the improved machinery blueprint.

Gu Yue also found that Song Chu was exceptionally talented in calculations. She could calculate many formulas as soon as they were written, indicating that her mathematical knowledge was even more solid and profound than her physics.

“Impressive, I really didnt realize you knew so much.” Gu Yues perception of Song Chu was once again refreshed.

He was truly shocked because no matter what he brought up, she could keep up with him, which was extremely rare.

At least he had never met anyone like Song Chu in the capital, which made him quite happy. After all, since coming here, he had finally found someone who could keep up with his train of thought and not talk past each other.

Song Chu said with a proud look, “Theres a lot more you havent seen. I told you Im also at the Academic God level, but you didnt believe me.”

This guy had just deliberately tested her math, which was her forte.

Before the apocalypse, when she was still in school, she had won first place in the Math Olympiad multiple times.

Gu Yue was at a loss for words, “I believe you now, okay?”

As for why Song Chu knew so much, which was far beyond what junior high school textbooks and tutorials could teach, he was smart enough not to ask.

Song Chu even had such a miraculous space laboratory, so it made sense that her actual knowledge was quite high.

“You should trust me more in the future, too,” Song Chu raised an eyebrow.

Gu Yue was practically afraid of her now, “Alright, Ill try to trust you more in the future.”

“Thats more like it.” What Song Chu wanted was to gain Gu Yues trust, which would allow her to better “exploit” him.

Of course, she would also offer the same trust and compensate him in other ways.

“Can you transfer things into the laboratory space now?” Song Chu asked curiously.

◈◈◈

A subtle smile appeared in Gu Yues handsome eyes. He reached out and touched a cup on the table.

The cup instantly disappeared. He said, “I can move small things in and out now, but not large items yet. Your space is really useful.”

It was amazing that he could put things in from the outside and then take them out again. It was both magical and practical.

“…” Song Chu was instantly speechless. This guy was a freak.

This space laboratory relied on her psychic power from her past life, yet he had mastered it so quickly, making her, the Academic God, feel a lack of accomplishment.

However, with this guys intelligence, comprehension, and practical skills, with proper training, he could definitely become a big shot in one or even two or three fields in the future.

“As long as you know its a good thing. Youre using my space, so you owe me a favor. Remember to repay it.” She was making an early investment.

Gu Yue was amused, “At this rate, how many favors will I owe you?”

“Dont worry, Ill keep a running tally for you. Just help me with more things in the future, and that will be a good repayment,” Song Chu said with a light laugh.

“I suddenly feel like Ill never be able to repay you.” Gu Yue made a rare joke, which was also a form of probing.

If Song Chu said that he could repay her with himself if he couldnt repay her otherwise, it would mean she was still interested in him and playing hard to get.

However, Song Chu didnt think in that direction at all, “In the future, when I want to invent something, youll put in the effort to make it, and Ill give you more opportunities to repay me.”

Hearing her words, Gu Yue was completely relieved. It seemed she really wouldnt try to forcefully take him for herself anymore.

With this thought, he completely relaxed, “No problem, but youll have to show me more of the books in the space so I can help you.”

With his current knowledge, he didnt think he could meet Song Chus requirements.

Song Chu smiled with satisfaction at his eagerness, “Sure.”

After dinner, it wasnt completely dark yet. Gu Yue took the opportunity to say, “Do you want to stay a while longer before leaving?”

Song Chu knew he was craving the books in her space again. The more he read, the more he could help her in the future, “Since youre so insistent, Ill reluctantly stay a bit longer.”

“…” Gu Yue wanted to facepalm. She was indeed as unique as ever, and her thick-skinned nature was unparalleled.

Soon, Gu Yue went to Song Chus other half of the space to read.

Song Chu also continued to organize the materials that could be used in this world.

She even commandeered one of Gu Yues new notebooks to jot down some things that could be shown to others.

Time passed, and Song Chu stopped writing and grabbed Gu Yues arm.

Startled by her sudden action, Gu Yue was pulled back from the space. He turned his head and looked at her with a questioning expression.

Song Chu casually pulled his arm over and looked at the watch on his wrist, “Its already past nine. I should head back.”

“Looks like I need to buy a watch, too.” She realized that without a phone or a watch, it was inconvenient to tell the time.

So it was just to check the time. Gu Yue almost thought she was going to take liberties with him.

He took a flashlight from the drawer and handed it to her, “Be careful on your way back.”

“Okay, Ill bring it back tomorrow.” Song Chu took the flashlight and left with her basket.
