Xu Mumu returned home; Yin Yang was not back yet. Xu Mumu played with the two dogs, her mind picturing her design drawings, contemplating where exactly to make modifications.

Xu Mumu was daydreaming, which made the two dogs unhappy, and Dahua almost licked Xu Mumu’s face.

As the dog’s face came near, Xu Mumu snapped back to reality and gently patted the two dogs away.

She thought again about how to change the drawings, unsure if it would work this time.

Xu Mumu found a blank piece of paper, took out her tools, and drew down her thoughts to avoid forgetting them later.

While Xu Mumu was drawing the designs, Yin Yang finally returned. Mrs. Liu had finished cooking some time ago and was just waiting for them to return and eat.

"Why did you come back so late again today?" Xu Mumu pouted at Yin Yang, putting down her pen and rolling up the drawings.

"I was negotiating a partnership today, so I got back late," Yin Yang said gently.

While eating, Xu Mumu and Yin Yang discussed that two rooms in the house had been rented out.

After asking about the tenants, Yin Yang paid no more heed to it, not caring as long as they had no ill intentions.

The next day, Xu Mumu took a few days’ leave and began her major renovation project after returning to the neighboring yard.

Involving CNC (computer numerical control) aspects, fortunately, she had mostly learned these things, and she didn’t feel there were any significant issues.

There were just too many things to modify here. Overwhelmed, Xu Mumu ran to the school to ask something in her class.

Then she gathered several students, and Su Yue’e was among them.

"Mumu, just tell us how to set things up," Su Yue’e said excitedly. Although working in the dean’s office and receiving guidance, she wouldn’t be assigned any significant experiments and sometimes even missed the chance to watch them.

Besides Su Yue’e, the other boys were good friends with Jiang Zhenghao in the class. Their grades were excellent, and besides helping out, they also wanted to learn more, as it wasn’t that easy to get into the school’s laboratory.

So many in the physics department envied Xu Mumu’s private laboratory.

Xu Mumu took out her blueprints, assigning each of them a part, first letting them understand her blueprints, and she patiently explained anything they didn’t comprehend.

The things Xu Mumu explained to them left them stunned, as her knowledge far exceeded theirs, leaving them greatly enriched.

Only after clearing things up for them did they begin to work.

While working, they encountered a few problems and were very cautious, worried about damaging the materials, some of which would be impossible to pay for even if sold.

With many hands, efficiency was quite high. Xu Mumu assembled the most critical parts, and the large laboratory was exceedingly quiet.

With Xu Mumu’s guidance, their progress was swift, as none of them who got into Hua University were dumb.

In just a few days, a brand-new piece of equipment appeared before them.

"Mumu, quickly debug it and see if there are any issues," Su Yue’e said excitedly, feeling proud of her small contribution to the equipment’s improvements, and anxious to see if it would succeed.

"Okay," Xu Mumu nodded with a smile, also feeling some anticipation.

Using the available materials, they conducted a series of tests, and everyone closely watched the results.

"We did it, Mumu, we succeeded," Su Yue’e exclaimed excitedly, and the others weren’t any less thrilled, their faces displaying delight — this was even more exciting than modifying it themselves.

"Indeed, it succeeded, and the results are quite accurate," Xu Mumu smiled, having tested it numerous times, finding not only high precision but also a negligible margin for error.

"That’s great, Mumu, can we use your equipment next time? The ones you’ve modified are incredibly useful," Su Yue’e asked expectantly, looking at Xu Mumu.

"Sure, as long as you don’t wreck my stuff," Xu Mumu smiled and nodded, not refusing.

"We definitely won’t break anything," they replied quickly, their gratitude for Xu Mumu lending them the laboratory evident.

This improvement was finally a success, making Xu Mumu very happy, having solved a troubling issue. She had spent considerable time enhancing the equipment, but the outcomes were cheerful.

After organizing the documentation, Xu Mumu carefully stored the drawings.

No need to find the dean; Xu Mumu planned to submit the materials herself. Having troubled the dean several times before, the dean had already explained the application procedures to her. She just needed to send over the documents for review, and could even bring the prototype to show them the modification results firsthand.

With Yin Yang’s help, the machine was soon delivered.

Returning to the classroom, Xu Mumu felt the fervent gazes around her, silently sitting in the last row. What on earth did these people want? Those burning stares could almost set her aflame.

Soon, Xu Mumu understood the situation after those boys returned and shared their story of improvements and borrowing the laboratory with their classmates, garnering countless envious looks. 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

Many in the class had visited Mumu’s lab, knowing her equipment worked even better than the school’s labs, and they wished to use it too.

Finally, two days later, the counselor found Xu Mumu, tactfully conveying the other students’ requests.

"You can use the lab, I’ll leave a key with the class president, and you can go on Saturdays and Sundays," Xu Mumu thought for a while and agreed. These were the first batch of Hua University students, likely to achieve much in the future, fostering good relations could only be beneficial.

Although she and Professor Song also used the lab, many pieces of equipment were left unused. Xu Mumu had long determined her focus, not on experiments but on improving equipment, hoping to make what she used more intelligent and to save time during experiments.

"That’s fantastic, thank you so much, Xu Mumu," the counselor said excitedly, knowing it was a rare opportunity for those students.

Seeing Xu Mumu so straightforward, the counselor calculated how to compensate her. Certainly, they would give her this year’s Outstanding Student Award, excusing frequent absences as a special case. Recalling the school’s various subsidies, it was clear she wasn’t short on money, having set up a private lab after all.
