Chapter 118 Chapter 118 [New Journey]

The young man who was left in the office felt like crying as he looked at the door closing in front of him. If he had known it would be like this, he would not have come today. When the professor and Lin Yimu see him after they finish discussing the problem, he will probably be in trouble again.

Thinking of this, the young man glanced in the direction of Professor Jiang, intending to run away quickly while the two men didn't notice him.

The young man did it as soon as he thought of it. While stealing glances at the two people who were explaining, he quietly moved towards the office door. When he was only one step away from the door, he suddenly heard Professor Jiang's voice.

"Qiu Shi? What are you doing standing at the door secretly? Come over and tell me what you want to say."

Professor Jiang had just finished explaining the problem to Lin Yimu when he looked up and saw Liang Qiushi who was trying to sneak out. From the looks of him, he seemed to have been there for a while, but he didn't know why he acted like that.

When Liang Qiushi heard the voice, his face turned bitter for a moment and then returned to normal. He turned around and smiled at the two of them and said, "Professor, I saw that you and Junior Brother Lin were so engrossed in the discussion that I couldn't bear to interrupt you, so I thought of coming back later."

Professor Jiang looked at him like this, and knew what he was thinking. He immediately glared at Liang Qiushi and said, "How could I not know you! You've been here for a while, right? I'm afraid you don't understand, so you want to run away?"

Liang Qiushi saw that the professor had seen through him, so he stopped pretending. He smiled guiltily and said, "Professor, if you know it, please don't say it out loud. I would be so embarrassed in front of my junior classmate." As he said that, he glanced at Lin Yimu who was sitting next to him.

"Okay, okay, I won't say much to you. Did you encounter any problems coming here?" Professor Jiang also knew that he had to save face for his students. Although there might not be much left, he didn't say anything more, but asked about Liang Qiushi's purpose of coming.

When the purpose of his visit was mentioned, Liang Qiushi no longer cared about the slight embarrassment just now, but quickly rushed back to Professor Jiang.

Seeing that Professor Jiang still had something to do and his question was answered, Lin Yimu immediately suggested, "Professor, you and my senior brother can go ahead and do whatever you want. I'll go back first."

"Okay, then you go back first. Remember to prepare your things and wait for notification from Old Zheng." Professor Jiang did not keep Lin Yimu for long, but reminded him.

"I understand, Professor. I will be ready. Don't worry."

As soon as Lin Yimu walked out of Professor Jiang's office, he saw Liang Bo standing outside the door. He asked in confusion, "Brother Liang, why are you standing here instead of going in?"

Liang Bo saw Lin Yimu coming out and heard his question. He sighed helplessly and said, "I just went in and heard you and the professor discussing a problem about prime numbers. At that moment, I felt deeply that I shouldn't have come."

Liang Bo shook his head and continued with some emotion: "Sometimes I wonder, Lin Yimu, what's wrong with your brain? We are both human, but the difference is too big."

Lin Yimu looked at the man with a look of emotion in confusion, not knowing why he suddenly said that, "Brother Liang, what do you mean by that?"

Seeing Lin Yimu's confused look, Liang Bo suddenly smiled and said, "I just heard the problem you discussed with the professor, and I feel a little emotional. When we graduate students and doctoral students were still studying one mathematical conjecture, you had already started studying the second one. And I heard that the mathematical conjecture you solved before won a prize from the Renault Laboratory. This is really enviable. Why don't you treat me to a meal?" Liang Bo smiled with some ill intentions at the end.

After hearing Liang Bo's words, Lin Yimu finally reacted and smiled modestly, "It's no problem for me to treat you to a meal, but senior brother, please don't praise me. I'm not as good as you say. I don't have any idea about my so-called second mathematical conjecture, so I thought of asking the professor to explain it to me."

Liang Bo was just sincerely expressing his admiration for Lin Yi Mu's evildoer. As for asking Lin Yi Mu to treat him, it was just a joke. After hearing Lin Yi Mu's agreement, he said with a smile: "Okay, I was just joking with you. I have to go in and ask the professor something, so I won't talk to you for long. If you have something to do, go and do it. Don't waste time." Liang Bo said as he looked at the time and walked towards the office.

Lin Yimu looked at Liang Bo who walked into the office and decided not to stay there any longer. Instead, he turned around and went back to his dormitory. He was going to go to Northwestern Polytechnical University with Professor Zheng, so he had to prepare some clothes to change into.

Not long after Lin Yimu set off with Professor Zheng, he received his bonus and salary for solving a mathematical conjecture. However, Lin Yimu temporarily forgot about all of this and was only excited about the Northwestern Polytechnical University he was about to meet and the next experimental project.

————

Lin Yimu temporarily forgot about winning the prize, but other people in the school did not forget it. As soon as Lin Yimu received the payment, someone from Peking University posted on the Internet that Lin Yimu's mathematical conjecture had won a US$1 million reward.

The other party had only found out about it by accident, and had posted it on Weibo out of habit, just like expressing his admiration for Lin Yi Mu's excellence and awesomeness as usual. However, it was found by netizens who had not heard from Lin Yi Mu for a long time.

Ever since the last pictures and videos of Lin Yi Mu’s military training were leaked, many new fans joined the fandom. However, there has been no news about Lin Yi Mu for a month since then, and everyone is looking forward to seeing new material.

Even though people know that Lin Yi Mu is not a star now, his handsome face, his temperament, and his current achievements still attract everyone's attention, and they often search for entries related to Lin Yi Mu on the Internet.

Therefore, this netizen's emotion was discovered by the netizens who were still enthusiastic, and after a night of fermentation, it naturally became a hot topic.

As for the result of being on the hot search, with Lin Yimu's evil physique, he is bound to be involved in a bloody storm.

Regarding this netizen's complaint, some people believe it and some do not. Those who believe it think Lin Yi Mu is excellent and amazing, while those who do not believe it think the other party is talking nonsense. These fans are just trying to flatter Lin Yi Mu.

The two sides argued in the comment section of this netizen, and the topic gradually became the most popular search topic. The netizen was a freshman at the University of Tokyo. When he discovered this, he felt both happy and nervous.

He was happy that his Weibo followers increased by tens of thousands overnight, and the number is still increasing. However, he was worried about the person involved in this incident. He didn't know what Lin Yimu's attitude was and whether he would hold a grudge against him because of this. After all, his account was now on the hot search list, and the comments below were overwhelmingly suspicious and questioning.

The boy who posted the post on Weibo is Sun Zhengbin, a freshman in the Department of Chemistry. He is currently in his dormitory reading the comments on Weibo and sighing as he reads. If he had evidence, there wouldn't be so much controversy now.

Thinking of this, Sun Zhengbin sighed in annoyance again, causing his roommates to look at him in confusion, and they all seemed to be hesitant to speak.

Sun Zhengbin stared at Weibo nervously for a while, feeling really bad, and finally posted a new message on Weibo.

[Everyone, there is no need to argue. The news about Lin Shen receiving the award is true. I saw the information on the desk of the Finance Department by accident, but I did not take a photo of it due to personal privacy. The previous Weibo post was just a feeling about the difference between the academic god and mortals like me. There was no intention of any hype, nor was there any intention to guide fans to fight with each other. I hope everyone can discuss peacefully. 】

However, his explanation not only failed to work, but made netizens more certain that he was guilty, which was why he quickly came out to explain and clarify, and some even made sarcastic remarks below.

[Oh, you saw that the topic was getting heated up, and you were afraid that the truth would be exposed, so you came out to clarify? 】

[Have you been following the developments on Weibo? As soon as you saw it was on the trending search, you quickly came out to explain that you did not receive the prize. This way, you will have a way out if it is really exposed in the future, right? hehe】

[Wow, those netizens who firmly believe that Lin Yimu won the prize are really shameless. Maybe they just have the same name? Don't pile all the good things on Lin Yimu without considering whether he can bear it? 】

[I'm dying of laughter. What's wrong with the netizens these days? They dare to write anything and believe anything. A sentence without any picture or truth can make you so excited. If it's true, why hasn't anyone come out to explain? Even this account is not mine. 】

…

Sun Zhengbin frowned in annoyance as he watched the comment section of the new message flooded with comments again. In the end, he decided to go and apologize to Lin Yimu, the person involved, because his unintentional act had caused Lin Yimu to suffer a lot of malice. Even though the person involved might not know it, he still felt a little sorry.

Sun Zhengbin walked out of the dormitory with his cell phone in his hand with a determined look on his face, and quickly walked towards Lin Yimu's dormitory.

As for Lin Yimu, after he got off the plane with Professor Zheng's team, he received a bank transfer notification as soon as he turned on his mobile phone. Looking at the amount on his bank card, Lin Yimu's eyes sparkled so bright that they almost turned into symbols of money.

From his previous life to this life, he had never seen so much money, and he earned it through his own knowledge and wisdom. It was incredible no matter how he thought about it.

Of course, Lin Yimu was only excited for a short while when looking at the string of numbers. He did not forget his current environment and what he was going to do next, so he put his phone away after being happy. As a result, he missed the gossip about himself on Weibo.

However, Lin Yimu would not care too much about this kind of thing. After all, he had experienced it so many times that he had become accustomed to it, and he believed that someone would help him solve this kind of thing.

Sun Zhengbin, who wanted to apologize to Lin Yimu, of course returned empty-handed.
