881 Adapting to a New Life

Where did Tang Jinteng drive to?

I went to the cinema. During this period, I took the time to come over every night to watch movies, romantic movies, and literary movies.

It was the first time I watched a romance movie and I really couldn’t watch it. His brain was not for pretending to be romantic. After forcing myself to watch one or two movies, I could barely understand the dialogue of the characters in the movie.

In my ears.

This is why rational people, especially rational men, have no sense of agency.

Tang Jinteng wants to make himself warm and bloody, not the kind of cold person who makes people recoil at the sight of him.

At his age, there is no need for him to be so cold.

Take a look at what the male protagonists in romance movies do, how they treat love, how they treat their girlfriends and wives. It can be regarded as preparation for chasing a wife.

Tang Jinteng's goal is to make himself moved by other people's feelings when watching a movie. It is basically impossible to move him to tears with those young girls in the cinema, so he has set a more reasonable goal for himself.



Xin Yi is at Columbia University and lived on campus during the first semester.

You must know that Columbia is really touted in various ways in China. Not to mention that it is one of the Ivy League universities in the United States. The key point is that there are 97 Nobel laureates from abroad in this geomantic treasure land.

Three U.S. presidents, 20 billionaires, 26 Oscar winners, and 29 U.S. state governors.

In this series of awesome statistics, the key point is that Obama and Clinton graduated from here...

Thumbs up!

There are also quite a few celebrities who have graduated from major major universities in China, such as Hu Shi, Xu Zhimo, Kai-Fu Li, Yang Lan, cough... "Milk Tea Sister" and Wang Leehom's girlfriend can barely be counted. Anyway, they are just good at various high-level positions.

Before coming to Columbia University, Xin Yi was worried and worried. It was necessary if she didn't have enough confidence.

Her heart beat faster before arriving at school. After arriving at school, the quietness of the campus gradually calmed her down. At least the moment she entered the campus, her heart stopped being impetuous and returned to a lifeless calm.

The major that Xin Yi applied for, Advanced Architectural Science and Engineering Research and Application, is the top priority in the Department of Architecture. Of course, the tuition alone is only ten dollars, and with room and board, she will have to spend millions of yuan this academic year.

.

Unfortunately, with the high-end consumption level in the United States, even drinking water every day would cost her a lot.

The design fee for the "Painting Soul" gallery designed for Guan Jiaren was 300,000 yuan, which was already the upper limit for a newcomer like her. With this money, she could study abroad and, well, there would be no scum left!

The tuition fee is only 500,000 to 600,000 yuan, which is not enough for her.

The so-called integrity and pride were all thrown away. She didn't want to spend the money Tang Jinteng left her, but she still spent it at this juncture.

There's nothing she can do if she doesn't spend money. Who can she ask for the millions of tuition and living expenses? Her father?

Oh, stop being ridiculous!

After going abroad, if you look back at your old self, one of you is stupid, and the other two are still stupid.

But if you look at it, life is just like this. It is up to you to decide what kind of attitude you choose to live with.

About two months after Xinyi arrived in the United States, she asked her father to sell the villa that Tang Jinteng left for her. Haiyin Island had not been completed yet, so it was impossible for the island to be sold. The money she got from the sale of the villa was a staggering amount of

The remainder was donated to charity, anonymously - Tuhaoyi!

Xin Yi donated Tang Jinteng's villa, well, it was purely revenge.

Who let that damn man defraud her of all the money for demolishing her home? The Oriental Pearl Villa should be regarded as being "buried" with her old house.

Xin Yi has always been worried about defrauding her of money. Now she has started to deal with the villa that Tang Jinteng left to her, and the previous holiday between the two has gone with it.

Xin Yi is now in a very good mood, and her heart comes alive as soon as she takes Professor Ent's class.

You must know that the teaching system here is really different from that in China. Even if you teach in China, it is a real teaching, unlike here, you will not do it first, use your own brain, and wait for the students to get the results themselves.

Just took this class.

Practice first and go to class with your own results.

Xin Yi has been looking forward to it for a long time. School has finally started, but there are no classes in the first week of school?

What's weird is that the professor who taught her professional course was named Ent. She posted the course assignments directly on the forum, and that was the end of this week's class.

Xin Yi was dumbfounded. How could there be a class like this?

I was waiting for such a course with a curious attitude. It turned out to be a summary of my understanding of modern and future architecture. OK, I will start the class next Monday, that's it.

Most of the students Xin Yi shared the same dormitory went to participate in various activities, and she was the only one in the dormitory.

I am biting my pen and thinking, what will modern and future architecture look like?

Some classmates were calling her outside. They were her roommates, two international students from country Z, Lily and Ruixue, and another international student from an island country named Juanzi. The three of them called her at the door.

Xin Yi turned around and looked out, threw away the pencil, put on her shoes and walked out.

She didn’t think about it anymore. The professor gave her the questions she thought she had, so she could say whatever she wanted. If she referred to other people’s answers, were they still her own?

Xin Yi played here for a week, and when class came next Monday, she looked at the materials brought by her classmates in the same course.

I regret it. She would have been well prepared if I had known earlier.

Do you know what she did that week? She went to see a show in Las Vegas with the three girls she shared the same dormitory with. She was very brave.

Fortunately, before get out of class ended, she used a pen to check out a few line drawings and handed them in. Others wrote long papers, but she only had a few line drawings.

Well, of course, no one could understand what she drew, and she didn’t come up with anything famous. But she explained that in her mind, modern architecture should show strength and beauty, and future architecture

, Xin Yi’s line drawing looks like a flying saucer, without any explanation.

The next day, the professor handed down last week's homework and looked at Xin Yi a few more times. She had just passed and got a B. The comment on her homework was: She watched too many science fiction movies.

Xin Yi secretly stuck out her tongue, okay, let's just say b, at least she passed the test. To be fair, she really didn't have any intentions, so it would be good if she passed the test.

The classes here really don’t focus on grades, but more on students’ potential.

You don't pay much attention to your grades, but you will post the scores and rankings of each assignment on the newspaper in order. Hey, the whole school can see it.

Xin Yi was embarrassed in the first class. There were twenty students in the class, and she was at the bottom. She was really embarrassed to see anyone.

After the first class, Xin Yi finally started to get serious, gradually suppressed her floating heart, and devoted herself to studying.

Columbia is not a romantic college or an engineering university. It is not a place where socialites come to get gold. It doesn’t matter about rankings.
