Chapter 411 Incentive

"Really? Then can you take me to meet your new friends?" Peggy sounded aggressive.

The girl knew the troubles of super geniuses like them. Even Peggy herself, with Mike's help, didn't make many friends at Columbia University.

Regina and Jesse were just acquaintances, and perhaps only Collins, who was also a Columbia student, could be considered half a friend of the girl.

So Peggy didn't believe that little Sheldon, who was alone, could make real friends at the University of Texas in just half a semester.

"Go... let's go, but Tom may not be in the dormitory..." Little Sheldon, who was embarrassed by the words, gritted his teeth and took the girl to the next dormitory.

In fact, with his odd temper, it was impossible for him to make new friends so quickly. Little Sheldon only knew the name of Tom, the fat boy next door.

The reason is most likely due to the other party's unique body shape.

"Is this your friend? A nerd who's addicted to games?" After entering the dormitory next door, Peggy showed her talent for sharp tongue.

But she really couldn't find any suitable adjective.

The "bloated" little fat boy in front of the computer has messy curly hair and a chubby little face that is greasy as he faces the computer.

He seemed to be very addicted to computer games. Little Sheldon and Peggy came in and stood behind him for a long time without the other party noticing.

It wasn't until Peggy spoke that he realized that an outsider had entered the room.

"Sheldon, it's you~" As if a little shy, Tom didn't dare to look at Peggy carefully, and continued: "Is this your friend? Sheldon."

"No, this is Peggy, not my friend. We should be considered enemies..." Little Sheldon quickly distanced himself from Peggy.

Yes, in little Sheldon's heart, he always regarded girls as "enemies".

"Hehe...um, do you want to play games together?" Tom, realizing that the two people in front of him had a disagreement, tried to smooth things over awkwardly.

It can be seen that although this little fat boy is a bit introverted, he actually has a good personality.

"The stand-alone game you are playing is too childish. You only need to write a simple auxiliary program to easily complete the game..." In order to be a bad guy, Peggy walked to the computer and casually made a "plug-in" for the small game on the computer.

"That's it. After cracking the original code, this game is just a bunch of data..." Then the girl used the plug-in she made temporarily to easily pass the level that Tom had failed several times.

This is tantamount to slapping Fang in the face.

"You are the lecturer just now... I have read your two online papers..." However, Tom was not angry. He recognized Peggy and seemed to have some admiration for the girl.

Even Peggy didn't expect this kind of reversal.

But this is not difficult to understand. Boys who like computer games will naturally be interested in the Internet.

Tom had gone to the open class classroom before and listened to Peggy's class.

A genius like Page, even if he shows a little bit of his true ability, can benefit ordinary people a lot.

"Well, you should be a senior in the fourth grade. Now you shouldn't care about the Internet or games, but should study hard to prepare for graduation next year." When the first plan failed, Peggy changed her mind and continued to make trouble for this person who was suspected to be little Sheldon's friend.

She seemed to want to prove that little Sheldon's friend was not good enough.

"Well... I'm actually only fifteen years old this year, and a freshman..." Tom was a little afraid to speak after being misunderstood by the girl.

"Sorry, you do look a little misleading." Peggy was actually quite embarrassed pretending to be a villain.

Who would have thought that this boy, who already looked "greasy", was actually not yet an adult.

A fifteen-year-old freshman at the University of Texas, it seems that the other party is also a little genius.

"No, nothing..." Tom didn't dare to talk to the girl anymore. He turned to look at little Sheldon and asked, "Sheldon, what do you want to talk to me about?"

Although he expressed it very obscurely, Tom had already intended to send them away because he was constantly being criticized by the people brought by little Sheldon.

"No, I just came to see you. I'll leave now~" Coincidentally, seeing Tom's poor performance, young Sheldon didn't want to stay here any longer.

"Is that your friend? It seems like you two are not familiar with each other." After returning to Sheldon's dormitory, Peggy asked a soul-searching question. If the girl hadn't been deliberately finding fault with him, the fifteen-year-old Tom seemed to have more common topics with her.

As for little Sheldon who was left aside, he was more like a passerby.

"Okay, I admit he's not my friend..." The humiliated Sheldon said, "What on earth do you want to do?"

"Isn't it obvious?" Peggy regained her composure and said seriously, "I don't want you to continue wasting your talent here. You should have a better place to go. The learning atmosphere and teaching resources here will affect your development..."

Peggy, who once studied at the University of Texas for a period of time, knew very well that this university was actually far behind the truly first-class universities in terms of cultivating talents.

Look at little Sheldon, who has only studied here for half a semester and seems to be just like everyone else, especially compared to Peggy, who has independently published two professional papers.

To sum up, Peggy actually inspired little Sheldon to strive for progress. This can be regarded as an alternative mutual appreciation between super little geniuses.

"Go to a better school?" Young Sheldon fell silent.

As smart as he is, he naturally knows what to do to be good for himself. Therefore, he knows that what the girl said is not wrong.

The reason why young Sheldon chose the University of Texas was, on the one hand, because it was close to home, and on the other hand, because his acquaintance, Professor John, would be there.

As a result, Professor John left the University of Texas before the new school year started.

This was a big blow to young Sheldon.

Moreover, after half a school year of living in the dormitory, little Sheldon has gradually gotten used to living independently without his mother.

These changes gave little Sheldon the possibility to find a better school.

Just when little Sheldon was thinking about the feasibility of the girl's suggestion, Grandma Connie drove a vintage car and rushed to the University of Texas dormitory.

"Peggy, grandma's sweetheart, you have grown taller and become more and more beautiful~" Grandma Connie came into the dormitory and hugged Peggy happily.

Although they hadn't seen each other for only half a year, Grandma Connie felt like a long time had passed. She took the girl aside and started to ask about her life in Apple City.

Yes, it was Grandma Connie herself who came to pick Peggy up to take her to the small town of Telford.

Peggy would then stay there all night and then go home tomorrow.

In the dormitory, Grandma Connie asked Peggy about her well-being for a while, and it seemed that she just saw her little grandson.

"Shelly, grandma's little cookie..." Grandma Connie smiled and waved, then continued, "I'm going to take Peggy home first. I'll pick you up on the weekend when you have a day off."

Here, Peggy, who was being pulled out by Grandma Connie, turned back and said, "Sheldon, if you don't know where to go, I'll be waiting for you at Columbia..."

After saying that, the girl left the dormitory with Grandma Connie.

"I'm waiting for you at Columbia University? What's so great about that..." After everyone had gone far away, little Sheldon first imitated the girl's tone comically, and then muttered unconvincedly: "You're just exposed to a little more knowledge than me. I will prove that I'm better than you~"

Obviously, little Sheldon's unyielding character played a role.

However, he himself may not realize that in his heart he has already accepted that if he wants to become better, he needs to find better educational resources.

It is this kind of thinking that can often change a person's life. After all, knowledge changes destiny.

At the same time, the fat boy in front of the computer in the dormitory next door was also studying the auxiliary program left by Peggy.

It is undeniable that he is actually a genius as he lives next door to little Sheldon.

……

"How is Mike now?" Grandma Connie found a topic to talk about in the antique car returning to the town of Telford.

"He's doing well. In addition to going to school, he also opened a company on Wall Street..." Peggy talked about Mike's recent situation.

As the conversation went on, the two ladies, who hadn't seen each other for half a year, still got along well and looked like a family.
