The Child Prodigy Who Loves Inventing

[My new novel next door, The Metaphysics Guru Takes the Internet by Storm with Her Cooking, is now available!] [Please add my upcoming novels to your reading list: The Magic Pen Toddler, Whose Art Takes the Internet by Storm and I Use High Tech to Make My Little Brother an Online Sensation] On the verge of retirement, the Invention System suffered the biggest failure of its System life: it accidentally bonded with a human toddler, aged four and a half. To protect its retirement fund, the System whispered like a devil: "Go on, little one. Get on the biggest stage with that male star, and you'll find your mommy and daddy." The newest season of Little Inventors welcomed its youngest contestant yet: Qiuqiu. In the preliminaries, the other children invented balloon baskets. Qiuqiu built a rocket herself and announced a successful launch, stunning viewers around the world. In the semifinals, the other children invented water purifiers. Qiuqiu made a seawater filtration system, driving water-scarce countries wild with excitement. After that, Qiuqiu developed a lithography machine and built a spaceship by hand, taking the internet by storm. Netizens: Wait, you call that a little invention? Qiuqiu explains in her little baby voice: "You do it like this... then like that... and then like this again." The netizens excitedly slap their desks: "...Well said! Little one, can you say that again? We didn't understand." Qiuqiu is deeply concerned. Adults all seem kind of stupid. After Little Inventors ends, a reporter conducts the usual interviews with the contestants: "What do you want to be when you grow up?" "I want to be a scientist." "I want to be a doctor." "I want to be a teacher." Qiuqiu, winner of the Invention Gold Award: "I don't want to grow up. Grown-ups get dumb." * After the double-reduction policy is introduced, a news website's reporter receives an anonymous tip from a concerned citizen: someone is running an unlicensed tutoring class. The reporter rushes into a dark little room, ready to rescue the suffering children. Qiuqiu stands at the blackboard, writing a long string of formulas with fierce determination. Seated below her are... The grandfather who is the richest man in the country, her domineering CEO father, her mother, a top fashion designer, and her older brother, a top-tier star. Her top-tier star brother, who just answered a question incorrectly and got his palm smacked, raises a trembling hand: "Save me." Netizens: ...If the richest man's whole family can't get into Tsinghua, Qiuqiu's tutoring class will have been wasted.
