    Bonnie had to give it to Russell. He was making a lot of sense.


    He noticed her faltering and continued, “Don’t you want more students to get the same wake -up


    call as Natalee? That way, they wouldn’t waste their time in the university.”

    “You say that, but my work at the research institute is already taking up most of my time. I will fail at


    both ends if I try to do everything. Moreover, it’s what you used to tell me, too. We have to focus on


    our goals. Otherwise, we’re going to make a mess of everything.”


    Bonnie said.


    “Yeah. I must admit I did say that. I believe a lot of older adults told you the same thing. However,


    things are different when ites to you! You’re not even a human… Ahem…”


    ‘Geez! Look at me. I almost blurted out my inner thoughts.‘


    Bonnie was staring at him. So, he said stubbornly, “What I’m trying to say is that your talents are out


    of this world. Yeah! That’s what I meant to say!”


    She didn’t believe him. He decided to drop it and change the topic. “Well. Take a look at yourself.


    You thrive at everything you do. That alone tells me you’re exceptionally talented.”


    “Are you sure? I think I’ve only excelled in my scientific research. The others are just hobbies.” She


    said sincerely.


    Russell’s jaws dropped a little before he patted himself in the chest.


    He was the university president of the top university in Pyralis. Naturally, he was also highly


    talented in many areas. He was renowned for his skill sets, character, and wisdom. At this moment,


    however, what she said made him feel pathetic and inferior.


    “Your talent in piano is good enough for you to be the president of the Pyralian Pianists Association.


    Are you honestly telling me it was just a hobby for you? I’m not even talking about your other


    talents.”


    “Exactly. I picked it up as a hobby because I was bored. There’s an important reason behind it.


    ying piano inspires me to make a breakthrough in my scientific research.”


    “Um…” Russell gulped. “How about you treat my position as a hobby, too? Don’t worry. I won’t ask


    you to do much. After all, you’re the science prodigy. It wouldn’t do for me just to plop the position of


    university president on your shoulder. That’d be wasting your talent.


    “Instead, you’ll be the type of president who could go about your life without caring about what


    happens at the university unless something emergency happens. Then, you’ll show up


    Chapter 426


    and deal with it. What say you?”


    ‘I will turn the entire Pyralis upside down if my word ever got out to the public. The president of


    Pyralis University is a highly respected position! Here I am, saying I’d be wasting her talent if I


    entrust the position to her.‘


    Bonnie gave it some thought and made up her mind soon.


    “I’m just going to take over your position for now. I will step down again once you start getting better


    and recoverpletely.”


    “Alrighty! You call the shot! I’ll take over again as soon as I recover fully!”


    He grinned from ear to ear.


    ‘I’ve finally convinced you to be the university president. I’m not going to recover, ever, so to


    speak.‘

    “Head back to the university. I’ll ask my assistant to inform the top management, and we’ll get the


    ceremony going.”


    Frowning, she said, “I just want to be an ordinary student at the university. I’d like to keep a low


    profile.”


    “Fine, then. We’ll just inform the top management personnel and hold a simple meeting. We’ll let


    them know you’re the new university president behind closed doors. Is that good enough for you?”
