After buying a dress to wear in the town at the foot of the mountain, the two took a car back to Tianjing.

Back home, Xiao Nizi went out to the vegetable market to buy vegetables and cook, Lu Shanmin lay directly on the bed, I don't know why, I feel very tired recently.

Over the years, after several hardships in life and death, no matter how hard and difficult it is, I originally thought that I was mature and strong enough. But since he stepped into Tianjing, all the people and things he has encountered have left him in a fog, which people can be trusted, which people are not credible, which people are telling the truth, and which people are telling lies, just as the old man he met today said, he can't tell the difference, and he doesn't know how to distinguish clearly. The fog was draining his mind all the time.

He had the feeling of standing naked at the crossroads, and everyone could see him clearly, but he didn't know who the people around him were. He wondered if he was really mentally wrong, as Wei Wuxian said.

He carefully thought about Tian Heng's purpose, thinking about Nalan Zijian's strange behavior, thinking about what Miao Xiang said today, and the words of the old man in the mask.

It's not that he didn't know that this was a deep whirlpool, but he didn't expect this whirlpool to be so deep, it was like falling into an abyss, and his body kept falling in the air, not knowing when he would be able to land.

He wanted to meet Zuoqiu and tell him the doubts in his heart, but the last time he met Zuoqiu, it was more about letting him do his own thing, think for himself, judge for himself, and not tell him everything, it was useless to tell him.

He could feel that Zuoqiu also had something to hide from him, but since Zuoqiu chose not to say it, he naturally had his reasons. Besides, he also knew that he couldn't count on Zuoqiu for everything, he was the one who bore the greatest responsibility in the whole war.

Thinking of Miaoxiang talking about his father, Lu Shanmin felt even more uneasy, he also wanted to be a bright and upright man, in fact, everyone in Mazui Village was upright, but he was getting farther and farther away from these four words.

The more he thought about it, the more headache he had, Lu Shanmin turned over and got up, opened the four treasures of the study, and began to practice calligraphy, Lu Xun would practice calligraphy when he was uneasy when he was alive, and Lu Shanmin also inherited this habit.

As soon as I wrote a dozen words, my mood gradually calmed down, and the sound of a key opening came from the door.

Xiao Nizi directly threw the vegetables in her hands on the ground, ran to Lu Shanmin's side excitedly, and hurriedly took out her mobile phone from her pocket.

"Brother Shanmin, look at it."

Lu Shanmin frowned, glanced up at Xiao Nizi, and took the phone.

The first thing Lu Shanmin saw was a familiar face and that signature clean and spotless smile, I don't know why, every time I see or think of this smiling face, no matter how bad the mood is, the haze in my heart will be swept away.

This smiling face seems to have a magical power that can cleanse all the filth of the world.

Lu Shanmin looked at Ye Zixuan's photo in a daze, and only noticed after a while that it was a piece of news, 'Amazing Chinese girl, the world's youngest Fields Medal nominee'.

Lu Shanmin knew about this award, and heard Ye Zixuan mention it when she was in the East China Sea, and said that her dream was to win this award. The Fields Prize, named after Canadian mathematician John Fields, is awarded to mathematicians under the age of 40 who have made outstanding achievements. The prize is awarded every four years, and no more than four laureates at a time receive a medal made of pure gold, engraved with the head of the Greek mathematician Archimedes, and engraved in Latin with the motto "Beyond the limits of man, be the master of the universe". In 1982, the Chinese-American mathematician Professor Yau Chengtong won the Fields Medal, becoming the first Chinese to receive this honor.

Although it was only a nomination, Lu Shanmin was so excited that he clenched his fists, this girl with an extremely high IQ and negligible EQ was finally about to realize her dream.

Looking at Lu Shanmin's excited appearance, Xiao Nizi giggled happily.

"Brother Shanmin, be happy."

Lu Shanmin coughed, controlled his emotions, made a disapproving look, and casually put his mobile phone on the table.

"She's a friend of mine, and she once helped me save my life, and I think I'm happy for her to have achieved this."

Seeing Lu Shanmin's serious appearance, Xiao Nizi smiled even more happily.

"Take your time, I'm cooking."

After Xiao Nizi entered the kitchen, Lu Shanmin picked up his mobile phone again, looked at Ye Zixuan's photo for a long time, smiled slightly, and smiled naturally and casually, just like a smile in the mountains, without any impurities.

After practicing calligraphy for a while, and seeing such good news, the haze in Lu Shanmin's heart was swept away, and his spirit returned to his body again.

As soon as the food was served, there was a knock on the door.

Xiao Nizi thought it was Han Yao and happily went to open the door, but when she opened the door and saw that it was Wei Wuxian, her face immediately drooped. Just as Wei Wuxian was cheeky and ready to come in, Xiao Nizi slammed the door shut.

Lu Shanmin smiled helplessly, got up and opened the door, "Fourth Senior Brother, you have seen the time and stepped on the meal."

Wei Wuxian had an embarrassed smile on his face and raised the two bottles of wine in his hand, "I'm not here to eat white food, but my dad brought these two bottles of wine back from a French winery."

The three of them sat around the table, and Wei Wuxian praised Xiao Nizi for her good skills, but Xiao Nizi didn't bother to pay attention to him except for giving him a few rolls.

"Junior brother, have you read today's news?" Wei Wuxian asked without words.

"What news?" Lu Shanmin asked as he chewed on the braised pork.

"You have stayed in the East China Sea, you should know the Ye family, although this Ye family is not a wealthy nobleman, but when it comes to his father-in-law, it is amazing, the famous old lady of the Zhu family."

Seeing that Lu Shanmin didn't speak, Wei Wuxian thought that he didn't know, so he took a sip of wine and continued: "How can I tell you, although the Zhu family is not a wealthy family, it is definitely a nobleman. Although their family is not as rich as a small tyrant, and all the officials in the family have retired, they still have a transcendent status." said pretending to be profound: "The old man of the Zhu family is a figure who has gone through the Long March, you know what this means."

Lu Shanmin didn't speak, and Xiao Nizi naturally didn't speak, just looked at Wei Wuxian like an idiot.

Wei Wuxian said eloquently, "This news is the foreign daughter of the old man of the Zhu family, who was nominated for the Fields Medal."

Seeing that Lu Shanmin still didn't react, Wei Wuxian looked at Lu Shanmin sympathetically, "Little junior brother, read more books when you have time, you don't even know about the Fields Medal, don't say that you are my fellow junior when you go out."
