Chapter 133: Too Lazy
“If I don’t study finance, there will really be no one in my family who can run the company. If I don’t study finance, my brothers will definitely have to give up their dreams and take over my family’s company,” Tan Mo explained.
“Since I was very young, they have doted on me, spoiled me, and protected me. I have never been able to do anything for them, so now that I have this opportunity, I want to let my brothers go and pursue their dreams without any worries.
“I’m very smart and I can learn easily. I will join the company on an internship in the future and get more practical experience. I will definitely be able to handle my family’s business well. My brothers’ dreams will actually be quite expensive.”
Whether it was directing movies, creating music, or painting, a lot of money was needed in order to pursue a career in each of them.
“So I want to support their dreams and provide them with enough support so that they can concentrate on fulfilling their dreams without worrying about anything other than their dreams,” Tan Mo said.
Professor Gu and Professor Tang were speechless for a bit.
This little girl is making such a big sacrifice in order to support her brothers?
Professor Gu’s voice sounded a bit hoarse as he said, “Don’t you have your own dreams?”
Tan Mo thought about it for a while. Her dream had once been to have a human form and take a good look at the world from the top of the snow mountain.
Now she is human.
As a human, a 100-year life span was basically the limit.
But as a little snow fairy, after getting a human form, as long as she doesn’t cause trouble, it would be no problem for her to live for several thousands of years.
But, it’s no big deal. After all, she has lived for 1,000 years and knows what it’s like.
It was too many years, and it was actually very boring.
Human life is short, but if one has a wonderful life, it’s actually enough.
She has actually already fulfilled her dream from when she was a little snow fairy in another way also.
So does she still have dreams?
“My dream…” Tan Mo shook her head and continued, “I don’t have anything I particularly like or am interested in. So for me, it doesn’t really matter what major I study, and I’m not against studying finance.
“As for my dream, I just hope things go well for my parents and brothers. I hope that even as my parents are getting old, they won’t have any regrets the day they leave this world. They will definitely worry about us, so all I can do is make sure that they rest assured.”
Professor Tang: “…”
Professor Gu: “…”
Wang Yuemu: “…”
Wu Xiaoye: “…”
Although it was very touching, isn’t she thinking way too long term?
She had already thought of the day when her parents would leave this world…
How would her parents feel if they found out?
Would they feel comforted?
Or would they want to spank her?
“It’s to let my brothers be themselves, do what they like, and live the life they want,” Tan Mo said softly.
In her last life, her brothers gave up their dreams for revenge.
After Tan Mo died, her three brothers never smiled again.
They all ended up suffering untimely deaths.
They didn’t live a single day for themselves until they died.
In this life, Tan Mo didn’t want them to live like that anymore.
She wasn’t dead; she was still here.
She wanted her brothers to enjoy life.
She would let them make a name for themselves and be known by the whole world.
“That is my dream,” Tan Mo said.
The expression in Tan Mo’s eyes was resolute.
Professor Gu and Professor Tang could tell that Tan Mo would never change her mind.
Had they ever seen anyone who was as resolute as her?
Professor Tang and Professor Gu both realized that they couldn’t convince Tan Mo anymore.
For the sake of her family, she won’t transfer.
They both sighed.
They really didn’t want to miss out on such talent.
But how can they compare with Tan Mo’s family?
They can’t compete.
Professor Tang pondered for a moment and said, “Tan Mo, you must have skipped a grade. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have been admitted to Beijing University at the age of 15. Why didn’t you skip any grades later? Was it because you couldn’t skip grades anymore?”
Wang Yuemu knew the answer to this question.
It was because of Tan Mo’s laziness.
“Because of laziness,” Tan Mo replied truthfully. “I originally skipped grades to escape a classmate who was harassing me. Once I had gotten rid of her, I could go to school without any troubles. Then I was too lazy to learn anymore. I could just play happily.”
Professor Gu: “…”
“In other words, would you be able to skip grades now?” Professor Tang asked.
Tan Mo said, “I flipped through the textbooks when I had nothing to do. It shouldn’t be a problem.”
“Then, how about putting in a little more effort and learning more?” Professor Tang said.
“Learn more?” Tan Mo blinked her big eyes.
She had already said that she was lazy.
“Your major’s course load won’t be a big problem for you so it won’t take up much of your time. You can spare time to take my class also,” Professor Tang smiled and said. “Little girl, I know you are lazy. Actually, there is no need for you to study all the courses in our major. You just need to come to my class.
“If it conflicts with your major’s course schedule, you don’t need to, but as long as it doesn’t conflict, you should come.” Professor Tang continued, “Let’s ask Brother Wu to give you a course schedule.”
This was Professor Gu’s office. Professor Tang had come up with the idea on the spot, so naturally he hadn’t brought the course schedule with him.
Otherwise, he would have just given Tan Mo a copy of his schedule.
As for letting Tan Mo join his research team, they could talk about it later.
He would take a look at Tan Mo’s learning situation first, step by step.
He didn’t want to assign too many assignments all at once.
He would scare this little girl away again.
“I have a good relationship with the director Hou Yuehai. He often asked me to be the consultant on the historical dramas he made,” Professor Tang said with a smile. “As long as you come to my class, I will tell him to take care of your big brother.”
Learning at school was different from being taught by an experienced, famous director.
“Little girl, don’t be too lazy. You have the foundation and brains so it won’t take too much of your energy,” Professor Tang said with a smile.
Tan Mo’s eyes lit up and she said, “If this is the case, then I will learn.”
She was too lazy, but learning one more subject won’t take up too much of her time.
Her oldest brother wants to be a director, and she could have asked Han Zhuoli for help through Wei Zhiqian.
But Han Zhuoli’s relationship with directors, to put it bluntly, was all interest-related, and there weren’t many personal relationships.
If she tried to meet Han Zhuoli through Wei Zhiqian, she would make Wei Zhiqian indebted to Han Zhuoli.
Using Professor Tang would be different.
She was making a deal with Professor Tang.
If she studied with Professor Tang, Professor Tang would introduce the director to Tan Jinqi.
