Chapter 330: How Could It Be So Unlucky?
The next day, Wu Duo took Huang Xiaochuan and Zhang Gaolei on a tour of MIT.
This world-renowned university was founded in 1861 and has developed into a comprehensive world-class university with a focus on science and engineering over the past century.
Many renowned scholars and scientists have emerged from here, including Nobel Prize winners.
You can say the US is bad, but it does have commendable aspects in education and technology.
At noon, Mai Guangde returned from the hospital and reported to Huang Xiaochuan: "As you instructed, I deposited $200,000 into the hospital's account and left the company's address and phone number. The bills will be sent to us directly from now on."
"How is he?"
"I visited her in person and spoke with her attending physician for a while. Because the bullet hit the edge of her spine, it caused a hematoma that compressed the spinal nerves, resulting in paralysis of her lower body. The doctor said that if she receives active treatment and medication helps to reduce the hematoma, and once the hematoma is gradually absorbed and eliminated by her body, she can regain her ability to walk after rehabilitation training. The doctor also said that her physical condition is very good, which will also be very helpful for her recovery."
Wu Duo, who was standing nearby, heard everything clearly. He said with relief, "It's good that I can stand up in the future. It's better than being paralyzed from the waist down."
Huang Xiaochuan asked Wu Duo, "Does her family know?"
"We notified her family a while ago; they're probably on their way. It takes time to process the paperwork for going abroad!"
Huang Xiaochuan nodded: "But she can't stay without anyone taking care of her like this. How about I find her a caregiver?"
"No need, no need. Several female classmates are taking turns keeping her company, so don't worry!"
"Okay then! Take a look and see which people are involved, and give each of them a small allowance. I know they've sacrificed their own time to take care of people, so we can't let them suffer!"
"You don't need to come. We international students in IT have already discussed it and decided that those with money will contribute money and those with strength will contribute strength."
How many Chinese students are currently studying in Massachusetts?
"Forty-six in total, including the six from last night."
"How about this? I don't have anything to do these few days anyway. Why don't you get everyone together, and we can find a place to get together?" Huang Xiaochuan thought that these were all elites from China, so it wouldn't hurt to get to know them. It would be good to make some connections and become familiar with them.
"Alright! I'll go and notify everyone one by one. Anyway, I won't feel guilty taking advantage of you, my big spender."
Huang Xiaochuan laughed and cursed, "Damn it!"
Considering the large number of people, Huang Xiaochuan asked Wu Duo which restaurant nearby was suitable, and then asked Mai Guangde to book the restaurant for the next night.
MIT is very close to Harvard, located to the northwest of MIT, less than four kilometers away as the crow flies. Since you're here, why not go and see this world-renowned university!
In March, the daytime high temperature in Boston is only 8 degrees Celsius, which feels quite cold. So Huang Xiaochuan wore a custom-made black pure cashmere coat and a brown pure cashmere scarf around his neck.
Huang Xiaochuan strolled leisurely around the Harvard campus, followed at a distance by Mai Guangde, his bodyguards, and Zhou Wei. Cao Charlie had already returned to Hong Kong, and Huang Xiaochuan had sent him back first because he had many things to take care of.
I saw the statues at Harvard, visited the Cook Library, and walked past Johnston Gate.
It is said that Harvard's Natural History Museum is also worth a visit. After wandering around for half a day, Huang Xiaochuan was a little hungry, so he bought a hot dog from a food truck, squeezed on some ketchup and mayonnaise, and ate it as he walked towards the museum.
Qin Yu, carrying her books, and Yu Guqiu, who was also from China, planned to head to the library.
"Qin Yu, Jiao Zhe invited you to dinner tonight, why aren't you going?"
"I see you really want to go, why don't you go?"
"Forget it! They invited you, I still have some self-awareness."
Suddenly, Qin Yu stopped and stared blankly at someone.
Following Qin Yu's gaze, Yu Guqiu saw an Asian man wearing a black trench coat. At first glance, he seemed very pleasing to the eye, and upon closer inspection, he thought, "Wow, so handsome!"
No wonder Qin Yu was so captivated, he's really handsome!
Huang Xiaochuan stuffed the last bite of the hot dog into his mouth, then wiped his mouth with a tissue, looked around to find a trash can to throw the tissue and paper away.
Suddenly he noticed two women staring at him from a distance. He didn't recognize Qin Yu at first and even smiled kindly at Qin Yu and the girl next to her.
However, less than ten seconds later, Huang Xiaochuan looked at Qin Yu in disbelief. Damn it! How could such a coincidence happen?
Qin Yu walked up to Huang Xiaochuan.
How did you know I was at Harvard?
Huang Xiaochuan's mind was a bit of a mess. Honestly, who knew you were at Harvard? I only heard you were studying in the US. How could this be so unlucky?
Yu Guqiu's mouth was agape, wide enough to fit a duck egg. Good heavens! Qin Yu actually knew this man! This man went to Harvard for Qin Yu?
A few minutes later, the two sat down at a nearby cafe.
Before Qin Yu could speak, Huang Xiaochuan interjected, "Long time no see."
It had been several years since I last saw Qin Yu, and she was much more mature than when she had just graduated from high school.
"It seems like it's been almost four years since we last met, hasn't it?"
"Yes! Time really flies." Huang Xiaochuan sighed. He was no longer surprised that Qin Yu was studying at Harvard. After all, in his previous life, this talented woman had been admitted to Peking University, so Harvard shouldn't be too difficult for her!
Just then, the waiter brought the coffee. Qin Yu placed a cup of coffee in front of Huang Xiaochuan and asked, "When did you come to America?"
"I've been here for two or three days. I came to see my college roommate. He works in IT, and I thought since it's not far from Harvard, I came here specifically to see what a world-renowned university is like."
Qin Yu smiled gently: "At first I thought you came to see me."
Huang Xiaochuan felt a little unsure how to respond. To tell the truth would be hurtful, and to lie against his conscience was unnecessary.
Seeing that Huang Xiaochuan didn't reply for a long time, Qin Yu laughed and said, "Look how conflicted you are. Alright, I know you didn't come to see me, but I'm still very happy to see you, my old classmate."
Well! It seems they've already let it go, while I still think I'm something special. Huang Xiaochuan chuckled to himself.
"It's so nice to see you too, really!"
At this moment, Qin Yu asked curiously, "You didn't come all the way to America just to visit your roommate, did you?"
"Of course not, I just happened to be visiting some college classmates, and I never expected to run into you, class monitor!"
"In that case, if you don't have any plans for tonight, I'll treat you to dinner! You've come all this way, if I don't treat you to a meal, you'll talk about me behind my back and say I'm stingy."
Huang Xiaochuan thought for a moment and then agreed: "Okay! Then I'll go along with your arrangements and won't stand on ceremony."
"I'm going to the library to return some books. Why don't you come with me? I can be your tour guide and show you around."
"Alright! Now that we're on your turf, I'll do as you say!"
The two walked side by side toward the library.
The two walked and talked.
"If I remember correctly, you should be a senior this year, right?"
Yes! The last semester of senior year.
"Then why did you come to America?"
"I got accepted into a graduate program, and I don't have many classes this semester. I had some things to take care of here, so I came here. I'll be going to New York and then the West Coast, and then I'll go back."
Qin Yu turned her head and looked Huang Xiaochuan up and down again: "You've changed so much. At first, I didn't even recognize you. If you hadn't been staring at me, I would have thought I had mistaken you for someone else."
"Hehe! It's alright! I don't feel any change. If I had to say something different, it would be that I'm a few years older."
"Hmm! I've noticed you've matured a lot now!"
