Yu Wenhao, who had been highly valued by him before, was now marginalized.
The huge sense of disappointment still made him unable to keep his composure. When the model was initially completed on the eighth day, he ran to the door of the laboratory to look for someone.
"teacher… "
Qiao Nian was discussing some minor details with Master Cheng. When he saw him peeking in the doorway, he put away the notebook in his hand and said to Master Cheng, "I'll go back and try to build the model on the computer. If there's no problem, I'll let you know..."
"Okay." Master Cheng of course also saw Yu Wenhao outside and nodded.
Qiao Nian packed up his things, picked up his bag, and left nonchalantly.
Wait for her back to go farther and farther away.
Yu Wenhao gritted his teeth, walked into the laboratory, followed Master Cheng, raised his eyes several times, and shouted hesitantly: "Teacher..."
"Hey." Master Cheng sighed, and finally put down the data book in his hand, turned to face him, and said gently with a kind face: "Do you have something to talk to me about?"
Yu Wenhao found it difficult to speak. He took a deep breath and finally mustered up the courage to look up: "Teacher, I want to ask if you didn't let me participate in the model making this time because I offended Miss Qiao before?"
Master Cheng's wise eyes flashed, and he looked at him seriously: "Do you think so?"
Yu Wenhao was embarrassed by his sharp gaze, but he didn't dare to meet his eyes. However, he held his breath and said, "I have been wondering these days why you didn't want me to participate in the model making of this project, and even let others do it instead of me. I can't figure it out! So when I thought about what happened before, I didn't perform well those few times, and I was wondering... could it be because of this reason... that you alienated me, teacher."
Master Cheng really didn't think that he had been entangled in these things for the past few days. He rarely put on a gentle attitude, with some anger lingering between his brows: "Do you think this is an opportunity that only belongs to you?"
No matter how stupid Yu Wenhao was, he realized that he was angry, and waved his hands in panic: "That's not what I meant, teacher, I..."
"No, that's what you mean!" Master Cheng exhaled and told him firmly: "You have been telling me this from the beginning to the end."
Yu Wenhao's face turned pale, he bit his lips, and he could no longer defend himself.
Master Cheng was furious but then relaxed. He looked at him with a look of disappointment and said, "You are indeed talented, and I do want to cultivate you. But now I realize that you still need to cultivate your character. A narrow-minded character will not affect experiments, but it will affect whether a scientist can become a good person."
A scientist who is narrow-minded and intolerant is not a good thing for society, and certainly not a good thing for the Institute.
He wanted to train good scientists, but he didn't want the people he trained to have problems with their basic character.
"Think about it yourself."
Master Cheng didn't want to say anything too harsh to him. After all, he was his student and he was not completely without feelings for him.
He hoped that Yu Wenhao would think it through on his own.
But now he understood why Ye Wangchuan called him out to discuss Yu Wenhao's matter...
This time he simply did not give the green light for making the model, but instead asked other people for help.
Yu Wenhao came over and blocked them, and also implied that Qiao Nian had said something in private.
Master Cheng was extremely disappointed with him. He ignored Yu Wenhao's panicked expression, looked at him deeply, picked up his things, shook his head and walked away...
