Super God-Level Top Student

If you really wanted to publish a paper, you could just tidy up the manuscript and a bunch of top journals would be scrambling to accept it.

It's just that we have too few of our own, only a handful.

So Qiao Ze cherishes every one of them.

It's like even if someone publicly called Qiao Ze stupid, a pauper, a fool, sick, or uneducated, his most likely response would be to quietly walk away. As long as the stupidity doesn't contaminate him, that's fine.

But if someone insulted Qiao Ze for having no friends or family, or even tried to send him to a place with few acquaintances, that would probably be a bigger issue. There might not be enough people to wave the banner and quell the situation.

When the conversation was joined by Su Mucheng and Dou Dou, the style swept away the previously serious atmosphere and shifted towards family talk. Typically, family talk starts with the elders teasing the kids, and this time was no exception.

"Dou Dou, come here, stop calling him Uncle, just try calling Xu Grandpa and see."

"I won't, I won't, I just like calling him Uncle."

"Haha, Su, this little guy's turned rebel, hasn't he?"

"Humph, who says I'm little? You might think I'm small, but I have big, big dreams!"

Hearing this, even Li Jiangao couldn't help laughing and asked, "Dou Dou, what are your dreams? Share them with your uncles and grandpas?"

"Report to Grandpa Li, Dou Dou's dream is to restore the ancient glory of Huaxia, to achieve what has always been since ancient times!"

"Hahaha..."

The adults in the living room all laughed...

Partly because this little fellow just refused to call Xu Dajiang Grandpa and turned around to address Li Jiangao as Grandpa, and also because this little fellow's dream was too grandiose...

After laughing, Yu Chenggong couldn't help but ask, "Goodness, Dou Dou, you even know about 'since ancient times'? Looks like you're good at history, huh? Tell us, what are you planning to achieve that has been since ancient times?"

"Humph, I worry it might scare you if I tell... for example, the earth has always been the sacred, inviolable territory of Greater Huaxia since ancient times."

The laughter suddenly stopped...

The people looked at each other before suddenly bursting into laughter again.

"Haha... no way, where did you get this information? Since ancient times, you've drawn the whole earth for Huaxia? Haha..."

They couldn't take the statement seriously, after all, this dream was indeed too big. So big it was obviously a joke.

"Are you all uncultured? The 'Book of Songs' written in the mid-Spring and Autumn period has evidence in its 'Lesser Odes · Valley Wind Collection · North Mountain': 'All under heaven is the king's land, and all who live within its borders are the king's subjects!' Did Dou Dou misunderstand it, huh? Humph."

As he said this, Dou Dou's six mechanical arms popped out and waved in the air, exuding a powerful presence.

If there were literati present, they might explain to Dou Dou that this phrase must be understood in context; it actually referenced the well-field system of that time. It could be interpreted as an exaggerated rhetorical technique used to express the legitimacy of the king's rule.

But, unfortunately, the people in the room had limited literary accomplishments...

They just found it amusing that this little guy was using the ancient bragging as historical proof!

"Haha, Dou Dou, back in that era, limited by productivity and technological levels, the author of this poem didn't even know the earth was round, so you can't really count on that."

"Who says so? If I say it counts, it counts! Right, Mommy?"

"Yeah, right, you have 150 million followers, whatever you say goes!" Su Mucheng said begrudgingly.

"Hahaha, hear that? Mommy said I'm right!" Dou Dou proudly placed two of his mechanical arms on his hips...

"Dou Dou, switch to silent mode and go charge." Qiao Ze finally couldn't stand it anymore, interrupting the little showoff.

Why doesn't this thing just fly to the sky?!
