Chapter 342: A Mathematics Genius
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Bai Lin put down the gla.s.s of fruit juice in her hand and walked toward Elder Mrs. Yan.
Since she was Yan Ruffs grandmother, and she had received her invitation, it was already impolite of her not to greet the old lady at once. Now that her name had been called, it would be impolite if she did not personally come forward to wish the old lady.
“Grandma Yan, I’m Bai Lin.” Bai Lin cupped her fists and bowed to her. It was an ancient etiquette in Hua. “I wish you a bright, prosperous life and longevity.”
The admiration in Elder Mrs. Yan’s eyes grew. Although this child was dressed more casually, she was very polite. The congratulatory words she said were also different from the others. It was very refined.
What she noticed was that Bai Lin’s eyes were filled with respect and courtesy for an old person. There was no flattery like others.
Before this, there were people who tried their best to hide their greed for the Yan family’s huge business, but they would reveal their true colors with a little probing. However, Bai Lin looked like she was really just visiting a friend’s house for an old granny’s birthday.
A person who could catch Ruo’er’s eyes was indeed different from other regular girls.
“Good, good child. Ruo’er isn’t with you?” Elder Mrs. Yan asked. “He just left…” Bai Lin’s words were interrupted by a cry.
“Ella!
Everyone looked over and saw Professor Hans rushing over with a gla.s.s of champagne.
Ella? Who was that? Was it one of them?
The heiresses looked at each other, not knowing why the professor from the city of romance was so anxious, even losing his usual demeanor.
Unlike those pretty vases who only knew how to dress themselves up, Yan Yue’s face darkened when she heard Professor Hans call out this name.
Professor Hans was still making his way through the crowd. He shouted as he walked, “Ella! Is that you? I can see you!’
Even Elder Mrs. Yan was a little surprised. She had never seen Hans like this before.
The Ella he was talking about was the rare genius of the University of Miliye. Hans and another professor had fought over her endlessly, and both of them had given all their knowledge to the same student in the end.
Why would Ella be here?
Elder Mrs. Yan sized up Bai Lin without saying a word and accurately captured the slight frustration in her at that moment.
Even though she was not very familiar with the heiresses present, she had investigated their background more or less. The only person she did not know was Bai Lin.
Naturally, Elder Mrs. Yan thought that Bai Lin was Ella.
However, this was a little strange. All the information pointed to Bai Lin not being to school. How could she be the math genius Ella who became famous in her teens?
Yan Yue had also thought of this, but her gaze toward Bai Lin was filled with disbelief and jealousy.
In the history of the University of Miliye, the number of people who could enter at the age of 13 could be counted in one hand. Ella was as strong as a sophisticated machine as she had completed all the courses in her major and graduated with high marks in just one and a half years.
During her school days, she published a thesis in the University of Miliye i s journal. Her graduation thesis was even published in the international mathematics journal, “Beauty of Mathematics”.
However, no one knew where the genius went after she graduated. Some said that she had returned to Hua to partic.i.p.ate in a national secret research project; some said that she had betrayed her country and become a secret researcher of Country M; some even said that she had been taken away by a
laboratory of a mysterious organization for brain dissection research.
There were many different opinions, but even Professor Hans and Professor John, who were the closest to her, did not know where their favorite student went.
How could Bai Lin be Ella?!
How could she be the legendary Ella who was always so elusive and never had a single photo of her at the University of Miliye?!
He must have made a mistake. Ella had already graduated ten years ago. How could she still look the same as before?!
Professor Hans’ next move completely shattered the last bit of hope Yan Yue had.
He stood in front of Bai Lin and scolded her angrily, “Bad student Ella, the phone number you left behind can’t be reached at all!”
