Below the stage, accompanied by bursts of jeers, Missy said in disgust, "Oh, my goodness. I saw Lundy's leg hair!"
It must be said that although Mr. Lundy was very dedicated, he really wasn't suitable for playing "Annie."
"I've wanted to say this for a long ti. So actors often make bold moves to grab attention. Leg hair is already considered good." Connie, who had a prejudice against the acting industry, seized the opportunity to give a brief lesson, and then said with relief, "It's a good thing my little grandson didn't go on stage."
The Coopers next to them also had expressions of relief.
They could hardly imagine how embarrassing it would be if Sheldon went on stage to play "Annie."
"Georgie, don't you feel disgusted?" Mike, avoiding the performance, was very confused by Georgie's current behavior.
"I think it's quite interesting—" Georgie exclaid while watching the "eye-burning" performance on stage with great relish.
"As long as you're happy..." Mike shook his head and then shielded Missy from the visual assault.
God knows, if you watch too many of these "horrifying" performances on stage, you might have nightmares at night.
anwhile, backstage, Sheldon, who had taken off his performance costu, also saw the "eye-burning" performance on stage from the best viewing area.
Then, disgusted, he imdiately gave up his "actor" dream.
...
Another week passed, and Sheldon, who had once again lost his direction in life, recently beca obsessed with writing back to his pen pals.
And this ti, he was lucky enough to et a pen pal nad John.
Through frequent correspondence, the two beca very good "friends."
It's not easy to be Sheldon's "friend"; at least the other person must be smart enough.
After Sheldon expressed his troubles, John enthusiastically invited him to attend his lecture.
It was then that Sheldon realized that John, who had been corresponding with him, was a professor at a local University of Texas.
When Friday arrived, and the morning cultural class ended, Sheldon called out to Mike and said, "Mike, are you interested in attending a university lecture with ?"
Apparently, according to Sheldon's understanding, Mike had already completed his high school courses a long ti ago, and staying in school was just a waste of ti.
Of course, his invitation for Mike to study at the university with him also had another layer of consideration.
Sheldon, who was not used to unfamiliar environnts, felt more at ease when accompanied by soone he knew.
On the other side, Mike, who was about to enjoy lunch with Cady and a few other girls, heard Sheldon's invitation and realized that an opportunity to increase his intelligence had arrived.
Mike's physique had already passed the three-hundred mark through the [Moonlight] characteristic, but his intelligence had been stuck at over one hundred sixty for a long ti.
Although it wasn't obvious normally, Mike could keenly feel that he was still far behind Sheldon in terms of intelligence.
To solve this problem, he needed to find more highly intelligent people.
And as Mike knew, when Sheldon went to the university as an auditor, he would et another absolute "genius."
Paige, with an IQ of over one hundred ninety, was also very emotionally intelligent. She could definitely be considered Sheldon's "lifelong enemy."
Therefore, to better increase his intelligence, Mike canceled his lunch plans with Cady and the other girls.
Instead, he went to the school gate with Sheldon to wait for Connie's private car.
Because it was Friday, George had to work at the sporting goods store and couldn't get away. So the task of picking up and dropping off Sheldon fell to Connie.
"Hey, Mike. Are you also going to the University of Texas as an auditor?" Connie, with wet hair and a swimming cap next to her, had clearly been pulled in temporarily from the swimming pool.
Knowing what her little grandson was going to do, she was a bit surprised to see Mike there.
"Yes, I've already 'graduated' from the Math Olympiad class," Mike said jokingly.
That was indeed the case. Mike staying in school now, besides being able to communicate better with the girls, didn't really have much else to do.
"I understand. Two little geniuses, please get in the car—" Connie said with a smile.
Since there was already a little genius in the family, Connie had a rough understanding of Mike's current situation.
Geniuses, well, so strange behaviors are quite normal.
Afterward, during the more than an hour that the students were enjoying lunch, Connie drove and successfully dropped Mike and Sheldon off at the University of Texas gate.
Sheldon, who knew Dr. Sturgis's classroom from their letters, led the two behind him all the way to their destination.
"I won't go in." Although Connie was usually very carefree, she was still a bit reserved when she ca to a solemn and serious place like a university.
Leaving Connie, who insisted on staying outside, Mike and Sheldon entered the university classroom together.
At this ti, there wasn't much ti left until class, and the university classroom was full of students.
When a little kid like Sheldon entered the classroom, it imdiately caused a stir among the university students present.
Facing the surprised gazes of the university students, Sheldon, at this mont, appeared very calm, even enjoying the feeling.
He looked around the classroom, then walked arrogantly to the middle of the first row, occupying the best learning position.
On the other side, when the handso Mike followed into the classroom, it caused exclamations from the female university students.
Fortunately, Mike was used to this kind of situation and naturally appeared very calm.
Imdiately, he also went to the first row and sat next to Sheldon. Not long after, he had several small notes in his hand.
It must be said that university life is good, and university girls are also very bold.
Mike glanced around behind him and, finding no particularly striking female classmates, silently put the small notes with lipstick marks into his drawer.
Just as so female classmates were about to launch a second attempt to chat up Mike, a short old man, about one ter sixty tall, with most of his head bald, walked in with Connie.
Seeing the shy smile on Connie's face, it was clear that sothing had happened in the hallway earlier.
"Connie, please sit—" Dr. Sturgis, like a gentleman, led Connie to a seat in the first row.
"Thank you—" Connie gave a reserved smile. Then, under Sheldon's surprised expression, she sat down on his other side.
Before, Connie had adamantly refused to enter the university classroom. Her current behavior was very suspicious.
But soon, Sheldon didn't have ti to think too much, because his pen pal John had already shifted his gaze to him.
"I'm John, and you must be Sheldon." Dr. Sturgis said with a smile, "You truly are a little genius."
Sotis, praising soone's family is more effective than praising the person directly.
Dr. Sturgis, who knew this well, kept an eye on Connie with his peripheral vision. Seeing her smile grow brighter, he also showed a knowing smile.
"Yes, I'm Sheldon. It's a pleasure to et you, Dr. Sturgis—" Sheldon nodded and then greeted him seriously.
Dr. Sturgis, with a benevolent smile, chatted with Sheldon for a couple of sentences, then his gaze noticed the handso Mike next to them.
"This new student, are you also Connie's family?" Dr. Sturgis asked with a smile.
Clearly, he also saw that Mike and Connie had an unusual relationship.
"My na is Mike, and I'm currently boarding at Connie's," Mike said truthfully.
"Oh, I see. Welco, Mike—" Although Dr. Sturgis was speaking to Mike, his peripheral vision remained on Connie.
Clearly, Dr. Sturgis was smitten with Connie.
