American TV series: Starting with exploiting young Sheldon

Mike and Peggy soon joined in the research as well.

And so, as the research project progressed in an orderly manner, time passed day by day.

Although Mike and his two companions only work half a day each day, their intelligence is enough to make up for the time difference.

Because of Sheldon's enthusiasm, the three-person team's project progress even surpassed that of the other two core teams at one point.

Friday afternoon, Sheldon, who was handing Professor John his current research findings, once again requested to take on more research work.

“Tomorrow is the weekend. If you can stay here all day, then I should assign your group more work.” Professor John looked at Mike’s group’s output with a smile: “Mike, what do you think?”

As the research project progressed, Mike had become the leader of the three-person team.

"I'm sorry, Professor John, I have some personal matters to attend to this weekend and may not be able to come to the research group..." Mike didn't want his life to be disrupted by research projects. He should focus on his studies and rest as he pleased.

“Oh, I almost forgot, you weren’t my colleagues at university…” Professor John thought for a moment and said, “How about this, from now on, the three of you don’t need to come to the lab on weekends. That’s your personal time.”

“No, I disagree. I can take care of Mike and Peggy’s work over the weekend,” Sheldon protested immediately upon hearing that he was to be given a break.

Peggy, on the other hand, remained silent. In fact, the little girl wouldn't have wanted to come here if Mike hadn't been with her.

Professor John observed the three's reactions and said, "Alright then, Sheldon, from now on, all of your group's weekend work will be yours."

Now, Sheldon got the more work he wanted, and Mike and Peggy got the rest they wanted.

All three have bright futures.

Chapter 293 Busy Man Mike

It was Friday, and after dinner, Mike and Peggy returned to Grandma Connie's house. They sat together on Grandma's old sofa, watching a soap opera on TV.

Enjoying a rare moment of leisure.

"Peggy, would you like to come with me tomorrow to meet Mia's grandmother, Queen Reinadi?" Mike suddenly asked.

During this period, the girl was either studying at school or doing research in the university lab, and spent her weekends alone at home with Mike's computer.

A life devoid of entertainment and social interaction is not good for a young girl's development.

Peggy's situation is different from Sheldon's. It's not that she doesn't like socializing, but her exceptionally high intelligence makes it difficult for her to make friends.

"Queen Genovya? Sure~" Peggy thought for a moment before answering.

Mia and her grandmother's identities are currently kept secret, but Peggy obviously knows their identities because of Mike.

The little girl had met Mia before; Mia was a girl who wore her carefree attitude on her face, but was surprisingly gentle and kind at heart.

Overall, she is a good girl.

Yes, with her exceptionally high IQ and EQ, Peggy has such a precise and insightful understanding of people.

Mia's grandmother, who oversees the development of a small country, must be an exceptionally capable woman, so Peggy wouldn't mind meeting her.

“OK, I’ll call Joseph right now and have him ask the Queen for her opinion,” Mike said.

For someone of Queen Reynaldi's status, it would be very impolite to visit her with a group of people without her permission.

When the call connected, Mike told Joseph of his intentions and also briefly explained Peggy's situation.

Soon after consulting with the Queen, Joseph on the other end of the phone gave an affirmative answer.

Queen Renadi didn't mind if Mike brought a child with him.

"All done! We can have lunch with the Queen together tomorrow at noon." Mike, back on the sofa, shared the good news with the little girl.

"Okay~" Peggy's reaction was indifferent. Then she moved a few times on the sofa, leaned against Mike, and continued watching the soap opera on TV.

Everything seemed so warm and cozy.

Saturday arrived, and although she had behaved rather uneventfully the night before, the little girl still made a point of dressing up when it was time to meet the Queen.

Her off-white floral maxi dress was beautiful, and her bright fruit hair accessory was adorable.

“Then let’s go. Let’s pick up Mia first, then go see the Queen. The timing is just right.” Around noon, Mike called Peggy, who was sitting in front of the mirror, and they went out together.

During this period, unless Mike was unavailable, he was usually the one responsible for taking Mia to see her grandmother.

As for Joseph's stretch Lincoln, it's already out of service.

At this moment, the Ferrari, with its top down, arrived in the old town again, where Mia was already waiting downstairs.

Then, Mike drove the girl around, heading towards the Queen's villa.

Sure enough, young people only feel excited when they're driving a convertible.

Not long after, the red Ferrari pulled up outside the luxury villa. The butler, with a serious expression, came forward and lingered on the little girl Peggy for a second longer.

Then, the butler led the three of them into the villa.

This time, the butler did not use the metal detector on Peggy, who was visiting for the first time, which was obviously because the Queen had given him prior notice.

In the living room, Queen Reina sat dignifiedly on the sofa as always.

As Mike and his two companions arrived, she stood up, looked at the "newcomer" Peggy, and jokingly said with a smile, "Whose little angel is this? She's so cute!"

As it turns out, even the Queen has her moments of joking.

Perhaps due to her age, Queen Renadi seemed very pleased to see little Peggy.

"Hello, Queen Renadi. I'm Peggy~" Peggy greeted politely.

The Queen's elegant demeanor made her not dislike him.

The two of them surprisingly got along well.

Next, the Queen treated the three to a sumptuous royal lunch, during which she also took the opportunity to instruct her granddaughter on dining etiquette.

Yes, Mia still hasn't fully mastered royal dining etiquette.

On the one hand, royal dining etiquette is far too complicated, and on the other hand, the girl's carefree personality often causes her to overlook some details.

After lunch, Mia's lesson today is on the piano. As a classical instrument, practicing the piano can cultivate an elegant demeanor in a girl.

this point is very important.

The teacher in charge of instructing the girls was still the multi-talented butler.

Meanwhile, Mike accompanied Mia to her piano lesson.

Meanwhile, little Peggy was unexpectedly pulled to the sofa by Queen Renadi for a chat.

[Piano playing experience +5]...[Piano playing experience +3]...

Mike said that today was another fruitful day thanks to the butler's instruction.

This was a real hardship for Mia, the future princess of the kingdom. The stiffness of her slender fingers made the butler doubt whether she was really suited to learning to play the piano.

A sense of rhythm and a feel for the game are things that no one can teach you.

The only way to improve is to practice more.

So, after being tormented by the piano keys for a full two hours, Mia ran out of the villa as if fleeing a disaster after finishing her studies for the day.

On the other hand, little Peggy seemed to be in a very good mood.

She had a very pleasant chat with Queen Renadi, and when they parted, the queen even invited the little girl to come and play again next time.

"How about we go shopping in the mall?" Mike suggested from inside the red Ferrari.

Then, his proposal was unanimously approved by both girls.

The town of Deford is actually quite large, sparsely populated, except for the commercial street, which is always bustling.

Before long, Mia's mood improved thanks to the lively atmosphere of the shopping street.

Then a delicious strawberry ice cream completely made the girl forget her unpleasantness.

Later, to take care of little Peggy, Mike took the two ladies to the amusement park.

Here, although little Peggy says she's childish, she's happier than anyone else when playing bumper cars and roller coasters.

In the evening, Mike treated the two ladies to a special chicken dinner, which brought the pleasant day to a close.

After dropping Mia off at home, Mike and Peggy rushed back to their grandmother's house and immediately saw Connie sitting on the sofa in the living room with the lights off.

With her head slightly lowered, she looked somewhat dejected.

This kind of emotion is rarely seen in my grandmother.

"Connie, what happened?" Mike led Peggy to sit down on the sofa.

Grandma Connie was very happy when Mingming left home this morning.

Since Mike wasn't going to the University of Texas today, Grandma Connie took Sheldon to the lab there instead.

Similarly, this was also a good opportunity for Grandma Connie to visit Professor John.

The two elderly people, who had already established a romantic relationship, had indeed not seen each other for a long time.

Therefore, Grandma Connie actually dressed up nicely before going out this morning.

“I don’t know how to say it,” Grandma Connie said, gathering her thoughts. “I feel that John enjoys those research projects more than I do…”

As Connie's grandmother aged, she placed more emphasis on spiritual resonance with her partner, a concept commonly known as the "spiritual love method."

Therefore, she can tolerate not seeing the other person, but she cannot tolerate the other person not having her in their heart.

Professor John's personality is somewhat similar to Sheldon's; he is slow to perceive emotions and is somewhat self-centered.

In particular, when they are doing something they enjoy, they will intentionally block out the distractions around them.

Therefore, it's not hard to imagine that Connie's grandmother, who was looking forward to reuniting with Professor John today, must have been given the cold shoulder.

"This..." Mike, having understood the whole story, didn't know how to persuade Grandma Connie.

In his opinion, Grandma Connie and Professor John were no longer suitable to be a couple.

The two are very different in terms of their knowledge, personality, and what they pursue; they are like people from two different worlds.

What's worse, neither of them is the type to compromise with the other.

"Phew, thank you for listening to an old woman's ramblings, I feel much better." After venting her feelings, Grandma Connie seemed to be in a much better mood: "Alright, I need to go get a good night's sleep, you all should get some rest too."

After saying that, she got up and walked towards her room.

All I can say is that she truly lives up to her reputation as Connie's grandmother, being far more carefree than the average person.

Chapter 294 Busy Man Mike (Continued)

In the following period, the determined Connie Grandma seemed to want to rebuild her standing in Professor John's eyes. So she visited Professor John at the University of Texas much more often.

Meanwhile, Mike spends his mornings at school, his afternoons at the University of Texas, and his weekends accompanying Mia to see her grandmother, while also making time to connect with Lina.

Life can be described as busy and fulfilling.

However, as July arrived and the summer college football tournament began, Mike really felt overwhelmed with work.

First, there's Mia. As the Genovese royal family gathering draws closer, the etiquette lessons the girl needs to learn become increasingly demanding.

Therefore, she needed Mike's help in more and more situations.

Secondly, there's Professor John's research project. Although it hasn't encountered any major problems, the research progress has been accelerated time and time again.

Unfortunately, although the Nobel Prizes are awarded in early December each year, the eligibility for nomination is usually submitted around October.

In other words, the "Thruster Recovery" research project needs to produce results within the next three months.

In this situation, Professor John wished he could split each researcher into two.

Given this pressing situation, Mike and his "elite" group will inevitably have to take on more work.

Finally, there's the school's summer rugby league.

Coach George not only showed a strong desire to bring Mike back to the team, but even former headmaster Sam personally approached Mike.

Principal Sam has decided to resign after Christmas this year. Therefore, he hopes to see the school achieve more accolades in his final six months in office.

This seems to have become an obsession for the old man.

The situation had become so serious that Mike found it difficult to even bring himself to cancel his participation in the football team's activities.

Therefore, he had no choice but to become a time management master, shuttling between the three teams.

The only good news is that nothing dramatic happened on the school's football team.
