"Thank you Papa." Upon hearing this, Xiang Nan smiled and nodded.

A Maserati, even a basic model, costs $70,000.

Although Xiang Nan is determined not to be a parasite anymore and refuses the Kusapali couple's support, since it is a well-deserved reward, he will not be stupid enough to refuse.

And with seventy thousand dollars, he can do a lot of things.

"Lalita Kuta's parents are also very satisfied with you and are already urging you to hurry up and get married." Mrs. Kusapally said with a smile again, her words full of pride.

"Yes, mama, but I still want to wait for a while." Xiang Nan nodded.

Although he often spends time with Lalita Kutta, and their relationship is very close, and they have done everything they should and should not do, but he does not want to marry Lalita now.

On the one hand, the development of the quantum navigation system is at a critical period, and he can't even think about getting married; on the other hand, Lalita's relationship with Howard has made no progress, but his relationship with Peggy has made great progress, which makes him inevitably

There was some hesitation.

"I also recommend waiting and seeing." Dr. Kusapally agreed.

If before, Lalita was still required to marry Xiang Nan based on his conditions, now the situation has been reversed.

Xiang Nan is now a top scientist praised throughout India, with numerous publications and high moral standing. Lalita Kutta is just an ordinary master's student at the University of Southern California, majoring in dentistry.

There is already a very obvious gap in reputation and status between the two parties.

Therefore, in this case, Xiang Nan does not have to rush to marry Lalita. With his reputation and status, he can definitely find a better one.

"Thank you, Papa." Xiang Nan smiled and nodded.

…

The Kusapali couple and Xiang Nan reached an agreement that they were not in a hurry to marry Lalita Kutta.

But Lalita Kuta listened to her parents' advice and knew that Xiang Nan was no longer the same as before, so she had to hurry up and complete the engagement.

Otherwise, Xiang Nan might not marry her due to long nights and many dreams.

So she urged Xiang Nan to hurry up and get married.

"Raj, I think we should get married early." She suggested to Xiang Nan.

"Why do you suddenly have this idea?" Xiang Nan said in surprise, "Didn't I already agree before that we will get married after you graduate with a master's degree?"

"Yes, but getting married will not delay my master's degree." Lalita explained, "Besides, if I get married as soon as possible, my parents will feel at ease, and I can serve you better as my wife. Isn't that good?

?”

"Of course it's good. If it's not good, I won't be with you." Xiang Nan nodded, "But to be honest, getting married is a very energy-intensive matter.

We have to go back to India when we get married, and it will take at least a month from preparation to official wedding. Such a long time will waste so much study and work.

Your studies are at a critical moment now, and my scientific research is also at a critical moment. One month is really too long, and you and I simply cannot afford to delay it."

"I know, but I really want to get married," Lalita insisted.

"I know, I want to marry you too. But getting married is not a small thing, it means responsibilities and obligations. After getting married, half of our energy will be focused on our family, which will delay our study and work."

Xiang Nan persuaded, "I advise you to think carefully and not to make a decision in a hurry."

"After all, you just don't want to marry me?" Lalita couldn't help but asked angrily when Xiang Nan always refused.

"Of course not. I dare to swear to Shiva that I do want to marry you." Xiang Nan raised his hand and said, "If you don't believe me, you must believe in Shiva."

"Okay, then you swear to Shiva that you will marry me." Lalita nodded.

"OK. I swear to the great Shiva that I will definitely marry Lalita, otherwise I will be punished to go to hell in the next life." Xiang Nan immediately swore.

"Yeah." Lalita felt relieved.

Xiang Nan smiled secretly in his heart.

Neither he nor Raj believed in Shiva at all.

By Him, even my hair will turn gray.

…

The sudden increase in fame also made Xiang Nan's green card application extremely simple.

On January 25, he officially obtained his green card and obtained the right to permanent residence.

In this way, he does not have to worry about his short-term work visa being invalidated and being kicked out of the United States. He can also enjoy more benefits, such as medical security, social assistance, education discounts, etc.

More importantly, after getting the green card, he can apply to become a U.S. citizen after staying in the United States for five years.

The most critical point is that after obtaining a green card, he will be able to enjoy the protection of the U.S. Constitution, labor laws and other relevant laws, which is extremely helpful in protecting his legal rights and interests.

Especially the quantum navigation system he is developing with Howard and Leslie now has a wide range of military applications, so he is likely to be under pressure from the military.

If he is just a foreign worker holding a short-term visa, his rights will be easily violated. He may be expelled from the United States with just a few tricks.

When the time comes, he will be banned from entering the United States for life, and even if he is greatly wronged, it will be impossible for him to be redressed.

But now that he has obtained a green card, his status is almost equivalent to that of a U.S. citizen, and his rights are protected by the U.S. Constitution. It will not be so easy for the military to suppress him.

…

In addition to receiving a green card, Xiang Nan subsequently received the University Science Award from the California Institute of Technology.

This award mainly rewards people who have made outstanding contributions in the field of science. Only one person can win the award every year.

And you must know that Caltech, as one of the top universities in the United States, has gathered a large number of top scientific and technological talents. There are six Nobel Prize winners who are still teaching.

Therefore, it is still very difficult to win this award.

For example, Sheldon has been working at the school for four years and has made outstanding contributions to string theory. Even so, he still has not been recognized by the university award.

"Raj, congratulations!" Howard smiled and congratulated, "I didn't expect that you would get the college award earlier than Sheldon. I think his nose must be crooked with anger."

"It's up to him," Xiang Nan said with a smile.

He no longer cares about Sheldon's affairs.

With his current achievements in the quantum navigation system, "Superasymmetry Theory", and analysis of hadron collider experiments, his academic achievements, popularity and status have far surpassed Sheldon's.

"Do I still need to care about him now?" He smiled again.

Upon hearing this, Howard nodded in agreement.

In fact, let alone Xiang Nan. Even he will no longer take Sheldon seriously after the quantum navigation system is successfully developed.

Because the string theory studied by Sheldon has not yet been verified, it is still just a fantasy theory with almost no value.

In comparison, his quantum navigation system is real and visible, and once successfully developed, it can be widely used.

By then, he will be able to gain both fame and fortune. He will be much better than Sheldon, who has been working hard all his life but has not yet been verified.

"That's right." He smiled and nodded, "By the way, our project will be completed by the beginning of next month at most."
Chapter completed!
