Chapter 224 - 224: I Don’t Know Anything

Whitney frowned when she saw Sophia. Obviously, she thought Sophia would join the project for the reputation. If the project succeeded, it would make a stir in the world. This young online celebrity must try to be famous for this, Whitney thought.

It was just that she didn't like to argue with people, so she just ignored Sophia.

Most of the professors here felt that web celebrities lived on their beautiful appearances and had little ability. Sophia was quite beautiful, and they just regarded her as this kind of crowd. Scientific research required dedication, and a pretty face was useless.

Andrew heard the talk, and he knew that Sophia's age and seniority made her hard to trust. Before he read the papers, he had someone cover up all the names of the authors to not let the author's fame affect his judgment.

When he read Sophia's thesis, he thought a professor wrote it. Later, when he checked her file, he was shocked. On the file, she was just a high school student. Although she had been admitted to Glinton in advance, she had not registered yet, so she was still a high school student.

He didn't want a student, but this paper was so good that he didn't want to give it up. After thinking twice, he decided to take Sophia.

So, he could understand people's doubts.

Andrew continued to introduce people here. Finally, he said, "You are all leading figures in the chemistry world. And most of you are familiar with each other. But you may not know our youngest member, Sophia. Well, I'll read a few paragraphs of her paper, then you may know more about her."

He picked up Sophia's paper, chose a few paragraphs that had struck him most, and began to read them.

He read for ten minutes. After that, no one raised any objection to Sophia's accession.

Whitney suddenly turned to Sophia and said, "Did you write the paper?"

Sophia nodded," Yeah."

Whitney stayed and sighed, "Wow, you young people are amazing. This paper, even I can't…"

Sophia smiled, "Thank you, Whitney. I'm flattered."

Andrew had introduced everyone, Sophia just said her name.

Whitney continued, "Oh, your family is really a blessing. I have a grandson who is about your age. He is still in senior three and his grades are not good. He may fail the college entrance examination next year. If he had a tenth of you, I would be so satisfied!"

Andrew said a few more things about the project, and the meeting was over. Christmas was coming, so they would not start the project. The official working time was after Christmas.

Before Sophia left, a few professors came to talk to her and discuss some problems mentioned in her paper. Obviously, there was the suspicion that she had not written the paper herself and wanted to test her.

Sophia answered them one by one, explaining the content to them in detail. She went into so much detail that even things that were not covered in the paper were extended.

It was only then that they believed that Sophia was indeed the author of this paper and regarded her as one of them.

For Sophia, it was easy to convince these professors. Although most of these people were proud, they would love to accept her if she could show her ability.

What gave her a headache was the message posted by mistake.

She didn't delete it. When she got home after the meeting, she browsed her microblog and saw that her name was one of the hot searching words.

The comments on her blog had reached an unprecedented number. In a few hours, there were tens of thousands of comments.

She refreshed the comments and found that netizens had basically figured out the whole thing.

One netizen posted a long message.

"The truth is clear. Sophia is KAP. At first, KAP appeared for the chess competition. Then it became a pet microblog because of Mitch and Chubby. She never told her identity, but one netizen had met Mitch and recognized her, a cute girl. So, I think she uses this account because she didn't want to reveal her identity.

While 'Sophia Green of Colin High School' was identified when it registered, the first message on it was forwarded by the official microblog of Colin High School. So, this account might be registered by her school. Then she attended all kinds of matches and became popular overnight.

I guess, KAP was her daily life account and she never wanted to expose herself. But she was like a diamond that a few words only exposed her. When you were arguing the number one online celebrity between KAP and Sophia of Colin, did you think about her mood?"

Many people forwarded the message, and netizens all felt that it told the truth.

However…

"I had scolded Sophia Green of Colin High School for KAP. Now I think about it… how stupid I was then!"

"I should know it. They were both excellent students, clever and cute. What a coincidence!"

"I followed both of them. Oh, me. I am yours, Sophia!"

"Oh, my! I once led Sophia's fans to occupy KAP's microblog. Well, it's good. There is no dispute as to who is the number one in the web celebrity lap, and they are the same person anyway."

Faced with this situation, Sophia felt that instead of making excuses, she should admit it.

So, she posted a message on Sophia Green of Colin High School.

"KAP is my account. How did I find that? Amazing!"

In less than ten minutes, there were over thousands of comments.

"I am amazing, right? Ha-ha!"

"Well, Sophia did that on purpose. Everyone could find out what she was doing."

"I want to say, I don't know anything. I thought KAP was up to something, trying to provoke something."

"Sophia, do you have other accounts? Just tell us. Let's see, are there any other secret accounts that are more like Sophia's?"

***

Sophia didn't know what to say. She had no other secret accounts. It was the only one. It seemed that she shouldn't keep a secret account.

Within a day, both accounts were rapidly gaining followers. Many fans who only follow one account followed the other after they knew that the same person owned the two accounts.

By night, KAP had 12 million followers, and Sophia Green of Colin High School had, even more, 15 million.

As Christmas approached, everyone had a holiday and was idle.

Kate was shopping these days. There were only two people in the family, and they won't need many things.. So Kate didn't buy many things.
