The private doctor ca to the house and prescribed a large pile of dication for Old Madam Xie.
After taking her dicine, Old Madam Xie fell asleep.
Ji Yanting's brows furrowed tightly. "Grandpa, Great-Aunt wants to control too much. I suggest we arrange a new place for her to live."
Old Master Ji glared at him. "Your Great-Aunt is this sick, how can I be at ease letting her live alone?"
"That's true," Rong Yu said. "A-Yan, for the next few days, try to push back all your work and just stay ho to accompany Old Madam Xie."
Ji Yanting had recently been slowly withdrawing from the entertainnt industry, so he didn't have much work on hand to begin with.
He understood Rong Yu's implied aning and nodded. "Don't worry, Great-Grandma, I understand."
The next day, Rong Yu was to attend a lecture.
The main speaker for this lecture was her teacher, Academician Yun Xiaoyuan.
She arrived at the venue more than half an hour early.
"Xiao Yu." Yun Xiaoyuan walked toward her with a gentle expression. "Let tell you sothing. Didn't you apply for the Aerospace Engineering major at Huaqing University? After a comprehensive evaluation by several professors at Huaqing, they believe you have outstanding aptitude and recomnded you to enter Huaqing's Tianxingjian Class. This is a special class dedicated to cultivating specialized talents for our country's scientific endeavors, which will fully utilize your strengths. What do you think?"
Rong Yu smiled and said, "I'll follow your arrangents, Professor."
Yun Xiaoyuan said, "I am the Dean of the School of Mathematics at Huaqing University. I teach two classes a week—one for the mathematics departnt and one for the Tianxingjian Class. We'll have plenty of opportunities to see each other then. After school starts, just enjoy your college life first. Once you're a sophomore, I'll start bringing you into projects. You're still young, and youth is precious. Don't be in too much of a hurry to dedicate yourself to the country."
Rong Yu nodded.
"Co, let introduce you to another academician." Yun Xiaoyuan led her a few steps to the side and called out, "Academician Liu."
Liu Jinyue was among the newest batch of academicians. Standing among a large group of big shots, he appeared very young. He said humbly, "Academician Yun."
"For this year's Tianxingjian Class at Huaqing, if I rember correctly, Academician Liu has taken on the physics teaching duties, right?" Yun Xiaoyuan said with a smile. "This student is nad Rong Yu. She has been recomnded for the Tianxingjian Class and is my student. I hope Academician Liu will look after her in the future."
Liu Jinyue naturally recognized Rong Yu.
Such a genius young girl was already quite famous within the academician circle.
But it was a pity.
He had been an academician for too short a ti, so he didn't even have the chance to compete for such a genius.
Rong Yu reached out her hand. "I look forward to your guidance in the future, Academician Liu."
"Not at all." Liu Jinyue gently shook her hand and let go. "I've rely walked a few more steps than you young kids. If my experience can help you avoid so detours, that would be my greatest achievent as a teacher."
Yun Xiaoyuan checked the ti and said, "I'm about to start my lecture. Xiao Yu, go help organize my notes."
Rong Yu nodded and went over.
When Song Huai arrived at the venue, the first thing he saw was Rong Yu organizing docunts by the podium.
She was dressed very simply in a white top, jeans, and a pair of little white shoes. She radiated youthfulness, making her particularly eye-catching in the crowd.
Song Huai was a bit surprised. How did Rong Yu manage to attend such a high-profile lecture?
He was able to co because his teacher, Academician Liu Jinyue, had given him an admission ticket. Ordinary people had no qualifications to enter at all.
He suddenly beca very curious. Who exactly was Rong Yu's teacher?
Just as Rong Yu stepped down from the podium, Song Huai went up to greet her. "Rong Yu, you're here too, you..."
He had only spoken half his sentence.
When he was interrupted by a pleasantly surprised voice. "Rong Yu, I knew you would co!"
Rong Yu looked up and saw Sheng Ciyuan.
A smile appeared on her face. "Ciyuan, long ti no see. What have you been busy with during the sumr vacation?"
Song Huai was stunned.
Calling him Ciyuan so casually—since when did these two have such an intimate relationship?
Before he could figure it out, Rong Yu and Sheng Ciyuan had already taken their seats, chatting enthusiastically as if there was no one else around.
"I've been busy with projects over the sumr," Sheng Ciyuan said endlessly. "Since my eldest brother has recovered, my youngest uncle took the opportunity to retire from the military. He was just coasting along in the army every day and couldn't get promoted, so it's good that he retired. With him retired, there's soone to help manage the Sheng family's business, and I can wholeheartedly devote myself to my studies."
Rong Yu smiled and said, "Then congratulations."
"My eldest brother is amazing," Sheng Ciyuan said with a proud face. "He had just joined the military and imdiately earned a first-class rit. My dad said that at this rate, my brother will be promoted very soon. Once his career is stable, he can consider marriage."
"Oh right, my youngest uncle is finally getting married." He pulled Rong Yu closer to vent. "When my uncle was young, he was a playboy who changed girlfriends every few days. He was the biggest headache for our Sheng family. In a flash, he's in his thirties and still had no prospects for marriage. My grandmother was going crazy with anxiety. Fortunately, things are finally settling down. Once the date is set, I'll send you an invitation. You definitely have to co to the Sheng family to drink to their happiness."
Rong Yu nodded and agreed.
The lecture soon began. Yun Xiaoyuan took the stage and started discussing the most cutting-edge mathematical research. Everyone present listened attentively. An hour and a half passed in a flash, and Rong Yu gained a lot from it.
"Academician Yun is truly a leading authority in the field of mathematics. Listening to one of her lectures is better than studying for ten years." Sheng Ciyuan looked amazed. He closed his notebook and turned his head. "It's only a ten-minute drive from this venue to my house. Rong Yu, why don't you co to my house for lunch? My grandmother has been talking about you for a long ti. She even said that if I didn't have the ability to invite you over, my room would belong to Pangpang in the future. Speaking of Pangpang, that little guy has been really pitiful lately. It used to live a comfortable life with my brother accompanying it every day. Now that it's missing a companion, it almost seems depressed."
Rong Yu was just about to refuse.
When she saw Yun Xiaoyuan walking toward her with four or five other academicians.
Her eyelid couldn't help but twitch.
She could already guess that Academician Yun definitely wanted to take her out to eat with a large group of academicians and professors.
One could just imagine: during the New Year, a five- or six-year-old child at ho would be forced by their elders to perform songs and dances, and be asked about their studies—what is one plus one, can you recite Ode to the Goose...
If she dined with her teacher, she would face the exact sa predicant.
Rong Yu spoke up first, "Teacher, I have sothing else to do, so I'll be leaving first. Excuse ."
Yun Xiaoyuan said to the people beside her with great regret, "Then I can only let you witness my student's super-brain calculation abilities next ti. She is no inferior to any computer."
Rong Yu: "..."
Fortunately, she had spoken fast.
After bidding farewell to everyone, she hurriedly left with Sheng Ciyuan.
Song Huai followed Liu Jinyue into a private room in the restaurant. He looked around the private room but didn't see Rong Yu.
He thought silently to himself that it seed Rong Yu's teacher wasn't an academician after all; otherwise, she would have been able to co dine with the academicians. Such an occasion was considered the most high-end dinner gathering in the academic circle.
What a pity.
