Bab 935: Chapter 868: The Circle is Small

"You child! What's so great about a doctorate? I'd rather you come back home a few years earlier," Mom said, pretending to scold.

But Dad seemed thoughtful and said, "You know, if Xiaoye really pursues a doctorate, he'd be the first one in the Wang family. That would indeed be an honor for our ancestors!"

That wasn't untrue.

Even including all of Wang Ye's cousins, none had earned a doctorate...

If Wang Ye could get his doctorate, he would truly be the first in the entire extended family!

Wang Ye quickly chimed in: "Exactly, exactly, I want to be the first Doctorate in our family! Anyway, it's easier to get a doctorate there. After undergrad, another five years and you're pretty much guaranteed to graduate."

Mom clicked her tongue: "Five more years? That's such a long time!"

"Two years for a Master's and three for a Doctorate, that's already considered fast," Dad said, apparently more knowledgeable on the subject.
