Shen Qing handed out the milk tea to each of them.
Xiaohan Pu sat next to Yang Lin, and both of them took their milk tea and took a sip.
Yang Lin showed no expression. freēwēbηovel.c૦m
Xiaohan Pu couldn’t resist, lifted her head to look at the composed Yang Lin, then glanced at Jiang He, who also had a poker face, and dared not speak.
Tang Ming and Ning Xiao had just arrived, coming straight from Dean Huang’s office, their heads covered in sweat.
"The summit is on Monday," Ning Xiao wiped the sweat from his forehead and spoke to Bai Lian, "Dean Huang wants you to represent and give a speech."
This task, when handled by Bai Lian, always carried an air of commanding authority.
Even Dean Huang couldn’t match it.
Bai Lian nodded, "Okay, I’ll prepare the speech later."
Seeing the children so hot, Shen Qing handed them milk tea with ice cubes.
Ning Xiao took a sip, then finished it expressionlessly.
Tang Ming took a sip, grimaced, and said, "Aunt, did your hand shake today? You added so much sugar; it’s a bit..."
From the side, Xiaohan Pu said softly, "Brother Jiang added the sugar."
Jiang Fulai stood at the kitchen doorway, the bygone aristocrat still holding Tang Ming’s unpublished paper, leisurely tilting his head and casting a cold glance at Tang Ming.
"It’s, it’s kind of tasty!" Tang Ming got startled and finished the milk tea in one gulp.

Sunday.
By the gate of Jiang University, Yong Shu was on call with Yao Xintian, staring at the "Jiangjing University" sign and the armed police lined up outside, feeling an indescribable yearning.
The person on the phone said something, he responded, then hung up and turned to the girl beside him, "There’s a summit at Jiang University lately, Miss Yao can’t get in either."
After saying that, Yong Shu looked up at the banner outside Jiang University’s gate.
[7th Asian Physics Summit...]
The summit would last seven days, with armed police stationed at the school entrance; even Jiangjing’s own students needed a special pass to enter during this period.
During this time, Jiang University gathered the most outstanding minds in physics from the past decades; if anything were to happen to them, Asian physics would be set back by decades.
Therefore, both Jiang University and Jiangjing placed high emphasis on security for this summit.
It being summer vacation, control was strict inside and outside the campus, not even a fly could get in without scrutiny.
They ensured there were no lapses in security whatsoever.
Yong Qi glanced at him, then took out her phone to call Yang Lin, "I’ll call Sister Yang; she’s a student here, she definitely has a way."
Yong Shu wanted to tell her not to contact Yang Lin so frequently, but knowing that Yong Qi was beyond his control, he shook his head, "It’s a summit, even she can’t help, she can’t even get in herself now."
Yong Qi didn’t look at him, just made the call.
Yang Lin asked her to wait at the gate for a while.
Ten minutes later, Yong Shu was somewhat surprised to see Yang Lin coming out from inside Jiang University.
Yong Qi excitedly looked at Yang Lin, "Sister Yang!"
As Yang Lin approached, a grey pass hung around her neck and she held a plastic bag in her hand, handing it to Yong Qi.
"Milk tea?!" Yong Qi took it, discovering it was an unmarked milk tea, and was even happier, "Thank you, sister!"
Toward Yong Qi, the young underclasswoman from Xiangcheng, Yang Lin was always very patient, inquiring why she came to Jiang University.
"She wanted to check in at Celebrity Square and visit the Physics department," Yong Shu explained from the side, "but we knew we couldn’t get in."
"Sister Yang, it’s okay, I just called to see if you were around, wanting to see you," Yong Qi took a sip of the milk tea, "It’s just right, where did you buy it from, sister?"
Yang Lin tilted her head to look at Yong Qi, her expression unusually warm, "Aunt made it, wait here for me a moment."
She walked aside to make a call.
Meanwhile, Yong Shu watched Yang Lin’s retreating figure, greatly surprised, setting aside where this aunt of Yang Lin’s came from, how could Yang Lin still freely move in and out of Jiang University?
