Chapter 1311 – I Want To Give You A Star

[?I never even touched the medal after I took it home. I am not interested in the Nobel Prize.?]

[Shocked! Professor Lu ?declined? the Nobel Prize!]

[?I will name an award after myself to reward those young people who need help.?]

[Lu Zhou: I have too many trophies, don?t send me anymore!]

[…]

Lu Zhou looked at the news headlines on his phone. His eyebrows twitched fiercely as he frowned.

He just accepted an interview normally and expressed his opinion in a normal way.

Why was it interpreted like this…

It sounds like I was bragging…

Lu Zhou gave the phone to Chen Yushan, who was walking beside him. Finally, Lu Zhou asked, ?Where did you find so much news about me??

Chen Yushan blinked and replied with a smile, ?They?re on my app.?

?How come I can?t find any??

?Maybe…? Chen Yushan thought about this for a while with her arms folded and said, ?Maybe it?s because you don?t search your name often on the Internet??

What does that mean?

Does this mean you search my name often?

That?s…

Quite flattering.

Lu Zhou suddenly felt a little embarrassed. He looked to the side.

Chen Yushan sharply caught the change in his expression. She looked at him curiously, like she had just discovered a new element.

?Huh? Your face is a little red.?

?No way, you?re seeing things.?

?No, it is! Wait, let me take a photo…?

Chen Yushan was about to take out her mobile phone to take a picture when Lu Zhou grabbed her phone and stopped her.

If she managed to collect evidence, his tall, handsome, and calm image would be completely ruined!

?Look at how scared you are! Even if I actually took the photo, I wouldn?t share it with other people, I?ll only enjoy it myself. Why are you so scared??

Chen Yushan chuckled and smiled, but she didn?t grab her phone back. She said, ?Speaking of which, I didn?t expect you to be so generous. Have you thought about which awards you?re setting up in your name??

?Awards??

Lu Zhou hesitated a bit and quickly realized what she was referring to. A somewhat embarrassed look appeared on his face.

?Awards… I think it?s still a bit too early. Although I do have this idea, at my current age, doesn?t it seem too much??

?How come? Didn?t you see how excited people were online?? Chen Yushan smiled and said, ?If you are interested, you can tell me. Even if it?s just an idea, no problem, I can help you set up a fund to manage this bonus.?

?Um… Let?s wait until later. I?m still young now, so I?m not in a hurry.?

Lu Zhou didn?t think this through yet.

They were walking on a path leading to an observatory. His mind was completely occupied by something else.

Normally, he would never be played by Chen Yushan like this. It wasn?t an exaggeration to say that he could easily outwit her using only half of his brainpower.

The two continued walking along the stairs. Soon they came to the end of the road.

Lu Zhou looked at the iron fence at the end of the stairs and the metal plate with the words ?Jinling University Observatory?. He had a smile on his face.

Lu Zhou looked at how confused Chen Yushan was as he spoke.

?It?s here, we?re here.?

He took out a key from his pocket and unlocked the iron fence. He walked into the building with Chen Yushan walking curiously behind…

This observatory was in Jin Ling University?s on-campus astronomical observation facility, which was located on a hill on the campus.

Although the building was not spectacular, it was equipped with a reflecting telescope with a diameter of 65 cm. The telescope was automatically controlled by a computer and was one of the largest teaching telescopes in Southeast Asia.

This telescope was the reason why Jin Ling University?s astronomy department was dominant across the country.

In addition to this, there was also a professional two-meter radio telescope.

However, Lu Zhou came here today mainly for the telescope.

Chen Yushan looked at the empty hall curiously as she said, ?It?s so empty here, like a haunted house.?

Lu Zhou took out the key and opened the door of the observation room. He smiled and said, ?After all, it?s the New Year?s holidays. I got the key from the Academic Affairs Office. We are probably the only guests in this building.?

Inside the observation room, Lu Zhou walked to the center of the room. He followed the manual instructions and meticulously operated the reflecting telescope with a diameter of 65 cm.

?Done.?

After clapping his hands, Lu Zhou stepped back and looked at the masterpiece he had constructed. He nodded with satisfaction and turned to look at Chen Yushan.

?The time is perfect, and the angle has been adjusted. Come here.?

Chen Yushan walked to the side of the telescope and leaned down in front of the eyepiece curiously.

The second she saw the starry sky, she had a smile on her face.

She had never seen anything as beautiful before.

The gorgeous starry sky was like a kaleidoscope overflowing with light. The shining stars were like gems in a mine, shining in the endless darkness.

After staring at the sky for a long time, she looked away reluctantly.

?It?s so beautiful…?

Chen Yushan stood up straight and looked at Lu Zhou. She spoke softly.

?I never noticed there is such a beautiful scene above us.?

Lu Zhou smiled and said, ?Because normally we can?t see that far, we can only do it with this tool. You can try to zoom in so you can see closer.?

?Can you help me??

?Happy to help.?

Lu Zhou walked to the side of the reflecting telescope. He moved his eyes close to the eyepiece and carefully adjusted the magnification and angle of the telescope.

Chen Yushan watched him carefully. Suddenly, she felt her heartbeat speed up inexplicably.

Lu Zhou, who was carefully adjusting the telescope, suddenly asked, ?Speaking of which, do you remember what day it is??

Chen Yushan blushed as she snapped back to reality. She replied, ?Ah, yes, of course I remember! The fifth day of the Chinese New Year… No, February 14th… Today, today is Valentine?s Day!?

She stuttered and nearly bit her tongue.

Seeing how panicked Chen Yushan was, Lu Zhou couldn?t help but smile. He let go of the telescope and stood up.

?I thought you forgot.?

?How could I forget such an important day??

Chen Yushan rolled her eyes and blushed. She then lightly punched Lu Zhou in the chest.

But soon, like a Valentine?s Day chocolate in the sun, her voice softened.

?Speaking of which…?

?What??

?Going to the observatory to watch the stars on Valentine?s Day, it feels… very romantic.? Chen Yushan didn?t know how to describe the feeling in her heart. She felt her heart beating very fast and her cheeks getting warm.

She was convinced that this feeling did not come from hormones.

Is this what love is?

She had never felt this way before.

Lu Zhou looked at her pretty face and smirked.

?Oh, really? I was a little worried you would think I?m boring.?

After all, watching the stars together was different than watching a movie or shopping. Not everyone appreciated the beauty of the skies.

?Not at all. As long as I?m with you, I like it. Also…?

Chen Yushan glanced at the telescope and said, ?I have never noticed before how beautiful the stars are… Can I take another look??

Lu Zhou smiled and made an inviting gesture.

?No problem, it?s yours. You can look as long as you like.?

Without hesitating, Chen Yushan walked to the side of the telescope. When she put her eyes on it again, the universe was in her eyes.

It seemed like all of the stars in the universe were in one place.

She had an excited look on her beautiful face.

?… So pretty.?

It was too pretty.

She didn?t even know how to describe what she was seeing.

Lu Zhou walked next to her and spoke softly.

?Tau Ceti, 11.9 light-years away from our sun. I wanted to show you Proxima Centauri, but we are in the northern hemisphere, so we can?t see Alpha Centauri.?

?Does it have any special meaning??

?Not really… Tau Ceti is not like other famous stars. It is just an extremely common third-magnitude faint star that can be seen directly by the naked eye. It is not even named after anyone.?

Chen Yushan smirked and teased, ?I thought it had something to do with love.?

?Compared to supernovas, it is still darker. It was difficult finding it back in the day, so there aren?t any old stories surrounding it.? Lu Zhou smiled and continued, ?But because of this, history has given us a precious blank page, and we can carve our own legends on it.?

Chen Yushan felt her cheeks getting warm.

?Be honest, how many girls did you use this trick on??

?You?re the first.?

?Hm…?

Chen Yushan was a little pleased. She turned her face and buried her eyes in the eyepiece of the telescope.

When Lu Zhou noticed her ears getting red, he smiled and asked, ?You like it??

?I told you, I like doing anything with you.?

?I?m talking about the star.?

Chen Yushan smirked. She said in a childish way, ?Of course I do, you told me that you want to engrave our story on it.?

?Then, I?ll give it to you.?

It seemed like time had frozen.

Chen Yushan looked up at Lu Zhou and blinked.

?Give it to me…??

Lu Zhou smiled and said, ?Remember the Valentine?s Day gift I talked about?

?I want to give you a star.?
