Professor Sun held a cellphone in one hand and pulled at Bai Chuwei’s sleeve with the other, his tone excited to the extreme. It was clear that this old professor was also in the group chat and had seen the earlier message.
Professor Li from the Math Department, seeming to take pleasure in the misfortune, said to Bai Chuwei, "Chuwei, if you don’t want to go to the archaeological site, let’s work on math problems together. I’ve made some progress on that world-class problem you left behind. We could discuss it with the students!"
What’s the point of going to an archaeological site?
Following a group of professors, Bai Chuwei would only be able to respectfully keep a low profile as a student, running errands for the archaeology experts.
But working with their Math Department would be different, all the professors and students would have to consult her! Others would be running errands for her!
There they go again, trying to poach her!
Professor Sun’s face turned red with anger, and his hand gripping Bai Chuwei’s arm trembled with vexation. Out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly caught sight of a procession of people carefully carrying a box covered with a big red cloth. Beside them was a staff member in a "Imperial Capital Cultural Museum" uniform, reverently holding a rolled-up brocade banner.
This little old professor seemed to be heatedly annoyed by the bunch from the Math Department. Without thinking twice, he called out to the group, "Over here, Bai Chuwei is right here!"
The surrounding students were almost baffled. What was Professor Sun doing?
When the director of the Imperial Capital Cultural Museum heard the call, he turned his head, his gaze falling upon Bai Chuwei’s stunning facial features, and immediately beamed with a huge smile, as if he had seen his biggest donor.
In China, there might be people who don’t recognize A-list celebrities or actors, but everyone definitely remembers Bai Chuwei’s face!
She was someone who, if placed in ancient times, would utterly be enshrined as a sacred figure in the imperial ancestral temple.
The elated director didn’t say another word and strode over, suddenly reaching out to grasp Bai Chuwei’s hand, only to catch her sleeve instead.
The director didn’t mind these details and, looking at Bai Chuwei energetically, said, "Miss Bai Chuwei, on behalf of the entire archaeological community of China, I thank you!" Follow current novels on novèlfire.net
Everyone present: "...???"
What on earth was going on?
On behalf of the entire archaeological community of China thanking Bai Chuwei?
That was a bit of a terrifying title!
Some observant students suddenly exclaimed, "That’s not just any staff member from the Imperial Capital Cultural Museum, that’s the director!"
All the students were in a fog, looking perplexedly at the people before them.
What on earth had Bai Chuwei done to have the director of the Imperial Capital Cultural Museum personally come over?
Some even took out their phones to start video recording, with a premonition that this was definitely big news!
At that moment, the president of Imperial University, having received the news, arrived from his office, followed by a few journalism students ready to cover the event. Seeing the director, the president’s face broke into a broad smile.
Unable to contain their impatience any longer, a student shouted, "President, what in the world is going on here?"
The president shook hands with the director, his grateful gaze resting on Bai Chuwei, and then cleared his throat to announce, "Our distinguished student, Bai Chuwei, has made a significant contribution to the entire archaeological community of China. She has d nearly a thousand historical and well-known paintings and calligraphies to the Imperial Capital Cultural Museum in her own name! They’re worth over twenty billion RMB!"
This statement landed like a blockbuster explosion in everyone’s ears, blowing their minds!
