Chapter 182: She’s only 24!_1 Chapter 182: She’s only 24!_1 Having hung up the phone, Lucy Wood was still somewhat dazed.

“She’s only 24, she’s only 24…”

Normal people at her age are still struggling in school, yet Ellen Young, so young, had already retired from a professor-level position at Hadton and had won the most prestigious Mathematics Prize twice.

Lucy Wood remembered that even her own teachers used to say getting an academic thesis published in a journal under Edgar was a great honor and an opportunity to make a name for oneself in the entire mathematics community, let alone such a pure professional Mathematics Prize.

The recipients were absolute authorities, a super genius wanted by every country.

No matter the age, they were top-tier personalities.

Now, her younger sister had won the Edgar Mathematics Prize.

An award almost legendary in the minds of their students.

Felicia Frost bowed her head, scrolling through Twitter, trying to dig up more information, searching through forums and web pages for news, before she stumbled upon a piece of old news from the past few years and gasped.

While Lucy Wood was still in a daze, noticing that there had been no movement beside her for a long time, she immediately came to her senses, “Felicia, do you think our family’s ancestral tomb is emitting green smoke?”

“We’ve already discussed this topic, let’s not talk about it anymore.”

Felicia Frost looked seriously at Lucy Wood, “I just came across another science-popularizing tweet and although it seems unbelievable, I think there’s about a ninety-percent chance it’s credible. Guess what it is?”

Lucy Wood, now anticipating, twitched, “Does it have something to do with Ellen?”

Felicia Frost turned the tablet around, revealing an old message.

[Our country’s scientist wins the Milton Prize in Physics].

The Milton Prize in Physics is considered the top award with the highest value in the world today.

Winning any project in this award signifies that the individual is a world-class representative in their field.

It’s a heavyweight award that even people unfamiliar with the scientific world know about, held only once every three years. Several scientists from Sina had received it, but this most recent time, it had not been announced who the winner was.

When the news first broke, it caused quite a stir; the key point was that the news Felicia Frost found had the last name of the scientist written underneath.

Last name Young.

It did not specify whether it was a male or female, it was old news from several years ago, and for a platform like Twitter, which is mostly about entertainment industry information, it was considered past news.

Thus, it did not draw much attention.

Everyone just felt vicariously honored; the scientist was someone too far removed, and irrelevant to their lives, so they did not pay attention.

Felicia Frost simply asked Lucy Wood, “Guess who this scientist with the last name Young is?”

Lucy Wood: “…”

Her fingers were trembling, her heart was racing, “Is it the world that has gone mad, or are we just too foolish?”

“What else is there to say, we are definitely too foolish.”

For once, Felicia Frost swore, “If I knew your sister was such a big shot, I wouldn’t dare be presumptuous in front of her, no matter what. Back then I actually thought she was as heartless as the Wood Family, not even bothering to check on you. Now thinking about it, if I had that high an IQ I also wouldn’t want a bunch of IQ-dragging relatives.”

Lucy Wood: “…”

Felicia Frost: “I think that during the time she spent with you, she might have been constantly wondering just how foolish we all are.”

Lucy Wood: “…”

Felicia Frost also felt like it was almost dream-like, “24 ah! 24 ah, damn!”
