From abandoned baby to CEO
Chapter 574: Scumbag
The first person that came to Sun Xue’s mind was Bach.
Sun Xue thought Bach was a nice person and gave her a good first impression. He was mature and steady, talented, and very active in class.
Although the two rarely communicated privately, Sun Xue felt that she should take the initiative to ask him for advice humbly.
On a sunny weekend, Sun Xue invited Bach to the school cafe.
"Sun Xue, thank you for your invitation. Tell me, what do you want to talk to me about?"
Bach, who was sitting opposite Sun Xue, raised his eyebrows slightly on his tough face and smiled.
That smile and those wise and sharp eyes seemed to be able to see through Sun Xue's thoughts.
Instead, Sun Xue hesitated a little embarrassedly: "Nothing... I just want to buy you a cup of coffee."
After saying this, Sun Xue blushed with guilt.
Bach gently shook the coffee in the cup, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "As far as I know, you Orientals are more reserved and reserved. Is it really okay for you to come to me?"
"I do need your help with something." Sun Xue looked at Bach with a red face.
"Haha, that's what I said!"
Bach laughed heartily.
"We are all classmates, there is nothing to be embarrassed about. Maybe the cultures of our two countries are different. I like to speak my mind directly. Don't be reserved in front of me. Just say whatever you want to say."
Bach's words made Sun Xue less nervous, and she poured out all her troubles.
After listening to Sun Xue's words, Bach frowned: "Why didn't you say earlier that you didn't understand what the professor said? I thought you could understand it."
"I'm afraid you will laugh at me!" Sun Xue said bluntly.
"How could I possibly laugh at you? Your native language is not English, so it's normal that you don't understand. Tell me, how can I help you?"
Seeing Bach's frankness, Sun Xue also openly put forward her own request: "I want you to give me some advice."
Bach thought for a few seconds and said, "Let's go. I'll take you somewhere."
The two came out of the cafe, crossed the playground, and came straight to a beautiful building.
When Sun Xue looked up, she saw the word "Library".
When she entered the library, her eyes lit up. The quaint library of Cambridge University was larger than any library she had ever seen before.
"What a big library!" Sun Xue exclaimed.
"Big?" Bach smiled with a relaxed look on his face.
"It's huge. It's the biggest library I've ever seen."
"This is just one of the libraries. Do you know how many libraries there are in Cambridge University?" Bach asked with a raised eyebrow.
Sun Xue was a little surprised. "You mean there is more than one?"
Seeing Sun Xue's expression, Bach couldn't help but laugh.
"Cambridge University is one of the universities with the most libraries in the world, with a total of 140 libraries of various sizes and a collection of more than 1500 million books. The largest library is several times larger than this."
"140 libraries?"
Sun Xue couldn't believe her ears.
"Yes!"
"Bach, this is really unimaginable."
"Okay, don't be stunned, follow me." Bach's tone was calm without a trace of disturbance.
Bach took Sun Xue to walk around the library and whispered to her about the various books in the library.
Soon, Bach helped Sun Xue select several books.
Then he helped her get a library card. As they walked out of the library, Bach pointed at the books in Sun Xue's arms and said, "Take a good look at these books. They may be helpful to you."
"History of Western Literature", "Modern Western History", and several other literary works that the professor has analyzed.
Sun Xue casually flipped through the top book, "History of Western Literature", and found it a bit awkward.
"Bach, can I ask you for help if there is something I don't understand?" Sun Xue asked in a low voice.
Bach replied cheerfully: "Of course! If you have any questions, feel free to ask me."
Before they parted, Bach left Sun Xue the room number of his apartment.
Sun Xue returned to her apartment and started reading the big book. After reading for several hours, she felt overwhelmed.
Only then did she realize that memorizing an IELTS textbook had made a qualitative leap in her listening, speaking and vocabulary.
However, the problem was also exposed: her reading comprehension and writing skills were still very poor.
She knew that if she wanted to improve her ability in this area, she had to read and write a lot, and there was no shortcut.
The books that Bach selected for her were a bit too difficult for her.
She could look up the unfamiliar words in a dictionary, but the complicated relationships between characters and time had turned Sun Xue's mind into a mess.
Sun Xue wanted to ask Bach to help her explain it, but when she thought about the trouble she had just caused him, she gave up the idea.
She could only grit her teeth and study bit by bit, holding on to the dictionary.
When Sun Xue saw Bach in class, Bach just smiled at her politely and the two did not have much communication.
Sun Xue found that everyone cherished this learning opportunity very much and it could be seen that everyone was working very hard.
Everyone listened attentively in class, and when it came to the discussion session, everyone was very enthusiastic.
The more this happened, the more anxious Sun Xue became. She also discovered a fatal problem: she was not used to taking notes in English at all.
After the class, her notes were so terrible that perhaps only she could understand them.
Soon, two weeks passed and she became a complete marginalized person in the class.
She only had a vague understanding of what was being taught in class, and during discussion sessions, she was often left out. She had even gotten used to never speaking.
She took some time to pay attention to the learning situation of other students in the class, which further undermined her confidence.
Not only do they take good notes, but they also read an astonishing amount of books. When talking about a certain writer's works, they can always name them by name.
Her enthusiasm was greatly hit and she became the worst student in the class.
The sense of superiority in my heart disappeared in an instant.
After dinner that day, Sun Xue plucked up the courage to knock on Bach's room door.
"Sun Xue, welcome to my apartment." Bach greeted her warmly.
She glanced at Bach's room, which was simple and tidy.
"Sun Xue, do you have something to talk to me about?" Bach asked straight to the point.
"I have some questions to ask you."
As she spoke, she opened the book.
"Go ahead."
Bach sat opposite her, and his tall stature gave her a strong sense of oppression.
Sun Xue told Bach the questions one by one.
Bach's eyes widened with surprise. "So many questions? I didn't expect you to find it so difficult to learn. If you didn't understand, why didn't you come and ask me right away? I thought you knew everything."
She smiled awkwardly: "I'm afraid to disturb you. I see you are usually very busy."
Sun Xue was telling the truth. She found that Bach was always in a hurry. As soon as the class was over, he would pick up his books and leave. He was rarely seen reading or studying in the classroom, and he was almost never seen in the library.
In Sun Xue's opinion, he was the only one in the class who didn't work very hard.
"Sun Xue, you are too reserved. Didn't I tell you to come to me if you have any questions?"
Sun Xue was speechless for a moment and her face turned red.
Bach shook his head: "Your foundation is a bit poor!"
"What should I do?"
"I'm a bit busy at ordinary times, how about I introduce you to one of my former teachers and ask him to help you."
