“Miao Miao has always made her own decisions. We won’t interfere,” Guo Fu said.

Ever since she came to Haicheng, Guo Miao’s ability had far surpassed that of her peers. Sometimes, Guo Fu still needed Guo Miao’s guidance, so it was even more impossible for him to interfere with her decisions.

“Then, do you know why she rejected those offers? Or do you know which city Guo Miao wants to develop in the future?” Li Liang asked.

He remembered that when Guo Miao had just proved Kratz’s conjecture, almost all the famous schools had sent people to Haicheng to look for her. However, she had gone into hiding at home, so no one had been able to find her.

The Chinese Academy of Sciences also asked Li Liang to send an offer to Guo Miao, but she had written them a tactful rejection letter.

The reason stated in the rejection letter was that she wanted to experience a complete high school life.

This reason was not made up. In her previous life, because of Guo Lin’s family, she had dropped out of school very early. It had always been her regret that she did not have a complete high school life.

“I’m not sure about this either.” Guo Fu was a little troubled.

He remembered that Guo Miao had always said that she hoped that her family could move to the capital. She probably wanted to develop her career in the capital in the future, but now that he had settled down in Haicheng, he didn’t know what Guo Miao was going to do in the future.

“If it’s possible, I hope you can help me persuade Guo Miao. 1 really hope that she can study at our Chinese Academy of Sciences,” Li Liang said.

Guo Fu nodded, his heart pounding.

The Chinese Academy of Sciences was even better than Beijing University and Huaqing University. It rarely accepted undergraduate students, and those who entered the Chinese Academy of Sciences were all national-level scientists.

It would be amazing if Guo Fu’s family had such a scientist.

Suddenly, the girl’s loud voice expressed from the door, “Commander Li Liang, I will consider your opinion in the future, but I still hope that I can complete my high school and undergraduate studies.”

The two of them looked at the door. Guo Miao was standing at the door with big and small bags.

“Miao Miao, you’re back,” Guo Fu said.

Guo Miao nodded and walked over.

Li Liang sighed. Geniuses all had a little character of their own. However, he was a little regretful. He was going to retire in five or six years, so he still hoped to work with Guo Miao.

“Guo Miao, I forgot my main purpose for coming here.” Li Liang stood up and placed the invitation letter from his briefcase on the table.

Guo Miao looked at the gold-rimmed letters on the invitation letter and was stunned.

The Laurent Prize.

The Laurent Prize was the highest scientific award in this era. It was only awarded to people who had achieved first-class achievements in various fields. It was divided into several fields: mathematics, physics, medicine, and literature.

Guo Miao was nominated for the Laurent Mathematics Award.

“The Laurent Award?” Lu Ning was shocked when she saw the invitation letter on the table.

Although Guo Fu and Lu Xi did not know English, they had heard of this name. Winning this award meant that one’s name would be part of history.

“Although it’s only a nomination, there aren’t many competitors this year. In terms of qualifications, Heleness from Country B also won this award when she was in high school. 1 think she should be able to win it,” Li Liang said.

Guo Miao nodded. “Do you need me to attend the award ceremony? 1 might need to apply for leave from the school.”

Li Liang choked on Guo Miao’s words.

Why did Guo Miao’s focus seem to be completely wrong? Shouldn’t an ordinary person be so happy that they would cry tears of joy after receiving this award? Yet Guo Miao’s reaction was to ask for leave from school?

They had already won the Laurent Prize, so who cared about skipping classes?

Although he thought so, Li Liang still nodded. “It’s the same as last time. The military will help you get a certificate. You can just take it and apply for leave.” Li Liang left after telling Guo Miao the exact time.

Guo Fu’s family was still in shock.

No one in China had ever won the Laurent Prize before. The Laurent Prize had always been won by mathematicians from other countries, but now it seemed that Guo Miao was going to be the first.

“I can’t believe that my daughter is going to win an international award.” Guo Fu sighed. He had experienced so many surprises in the past two days.

Who would have thought that Guo Miao, who was just a little girl in Dongshan Village a year ago, would hold so many identities now?
