Chapter 41 41【The endless routine is the routine】
Xiang Nan raised his head and saw a woman with a South Asian style standing in front of him.
She has brown skin, black hair, a straight nose and deep eye sockets. Even from the perspective of Chinese aesthetics, she is a very beautiful beauty.
"Yes, I am." Xiang Nan put down the magazine, stood up and smiled, "Are you Lalita?! Wow, you are getting more and more beautiful."
“Thank you.” Lalita smiled and nodded.
She used to be a chubby girl, and her appearance was not very good. It wasn''t until she made up her mind to lose fifty pounds of fat that her appearance became outstanding.
She also likes others to call her beautiful, which makes her feel that her hard work is not in vain.
"Please sit down." Xiang Nan smiled and then gave the gift he had prepared. "A small gift is not a sign of respect. I hope you like it."
“You actually brought a gift?!” Lalita said in surprise, “Thank you, what is it?!”
“Take it apart and take a look.” Xiang Nan smiled but didn’t answer.
Lalita then opened the beautifully wrapped gift and saw a beautifully decorated book inside.
When I opened it again, I saw it was a fairy tale.
“Huh?!” Lalita looked at Xiang Nan doubtfully, not understanding what he meant.
Do you think you are too naive and stupid to read such fairy tales? !
"The name of this book is "Princess Panchali". It tells the story of the strong, beautiful, brave and kind Indian princess Panchali, who leads her people to break through their shackles and move toward freedom." Xiang Nan smiled. Explaining, "I think you look very much like her."
“Oh?!” Lalita was pleasantly surprised. She didn’t expect to receive such a high evaluation. “Tell me more about this princess.”
"Okay, it''s said that her eyes were made of stars by gods, and her lips are so beautiful that even roses are ashamed to open them..." Xiang Nan nodded and continued speaking softly.
“Oh~” Lalita became more and more happy as she listened, and couldn’t help but said coquettishly, “Rajesh, I can’t speak as well as you.”
"You speak better than me." Xiang Nan smiled and said, "Come on, let''s order food and chat while we eat, okay?"
“OK.” Lalita nodded cheerfully.
…
Xiang Nan then ordered sushi and chatted with Lalita while eating.
?The longer the conversation lasted, the better Lalita’s impression of Xiang Nan became.
Before she came, she had actually heard some rumors about Raj.
It is said that he is a very strange person. He has never dated a girl and even dared not talk to a girl. He also said that he had a close relationship with a Jewish boy, so it was said that he was a crook.
Therefore, Lalita was actually very worried when she went on a blind date this time, worried that she would meet a disgusting and weird man. Therefore, she had already planned that if Raj was really weird, she would stay for a few minutes and find an excuse to escape, and then go back and cancel the marriage with her parents.
?But now that she has gotten in touch with him, she feels that Raj is handsome, romantic, interesting, and a very good man.
It’s really strange how those rumors spread. Fortunately, she didn''t believe it all, otherwise she would have missed such a good boy.
“Are you still used to coming to the United States to study?” Xiang Nan asked with a smile.
“At the beginning, I was not used to the food and accommodation, and I didn’t have any friends, so I really felt lonely.” Lalita nodded and said, “But once you become the director, you will get used to it.”
"That''s good." Xiang Nan nodded. "I heard that you studied in England at the age of sixteen. It''s really admirable that you have such courage at such a young age." Lalita also smiled.
"Actually, it''s because I have a spiritual totem." Xiang Nan smiled. "It guides me in the sky, so I won''t feel afraid."
“Oh, which **** do you believe in?” Lalita asked curiously.
“It’s not a god, it’s the Voyager space probe.” Xiang Nan waved his hand and explained, “It was sent into space as early as 1977. When I was born, it had actually completed its set mission.
?It has detected Saturn, Jupiter, and their satellites, but it has not stopped, but continues to move forward into the depths of the universe.
Because whenever I feel lonely or scared, I think of it in the sky. At this moment, it is still somewhere outside the solar system, continuing to move towards the unknown front.
?This spirit always inspires me and makes me no longer afraid and lonely. "
“Oh, you said it so well.” After hearing this, Lalita was so moved that she trembled all over and got goosebumps.
She didn''t expect that Xiang Nan could say such profound and insightful words, which made her feel that he was so mature, so stable, and so meaningful.
…
“Rajesh, you have been in People magazine.” Lalita noticed the magazine Xiang Nan had on hand. She opened it and saw Xiang Nan’s exclusive interview.
?Seeing that he was actually featured in such a high-end magazine, Lalita couldn''t help but feel a little admired and a little attracted to him. The other men around her are not as good as Xiang Nan.
“Yes, it’s to report my discovery of a habitable planet.” Xiang Nan introduced briefly.
“Humanity has only discovered more than fifty habitable planets so far, and one of them was discovered by you alone?!” Lalita said in surprise, understanding for the first time the magnitude of Xiang Nan’s achievements.
?Hundreds or thousands of years later, when humans step into space and embark on interstellar voyages, Xiang Nan will also establish a monument as the "discoverer of the planet."
“It’s really amazing.” She said with admiration.
"That''s just my luck." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "If you are interested in space, I can take you to the astronomy room to have a look. If you are lucky, maybe you can also discover an unknown asteroid and Name it after you."
“Really, that’s great.” Lalita was immediately moved after hearing this.
??How romantic it would be to discover an asteroid and name it after yourself.
"Then let''s go after dinner. I happen to have the key with me." Xiang Nan said with a smile.
“Okay.” Lalita said happily.
…
After eating, the two then drove to Caltech and entered the astronomy room.
“Wow, is this the astronomy room? It’s different from what I imagined.” Lalita said doubtfully. She thought there would be a large astronomical telescope inside, but she didn’t expect that there were only a few computers.
"The telescope is actually set up in Hawaii. It is as big as twenty golf courses and cannot be placed in the school." Xiang Nan explained, "The signals it observes will be transmitted to the school through the network, allowing us to stay at home. , you can see the stars.”
“That’s it.” Lalita said suddenly.
Xiang Nan smiled and then set the observation direction of the telescope. He knew there was an asteroid out there.
