Sandaokou University Canteen.

Su Yutong carefully carried the tray and found a corner with Chen Yun where there weren't many people.

"call……"

After putting down her tray, Chen Yun breathed a slight sigh of relief and complained softly, "I lingered too long at the school gate, and there were just too many people in the cafeteria today..."

Su Yutong ignored Chen Yun's complaints and simply sat in her chair, staring blankly at the plate in front of her.

"Hello?"

Seeing Su Yutong's expression, Chen Yun frowned slightly and waved her hand gently in front of her: "What are you thinking about? You seem so lost in thought."

Su Yutong snapped out of her daze, slowly shook her head, and said with a smile, "It's nothing, I just felt that the meeting was a bit strange, after all, I didn't hear any rumors."

Chen Yun pouted and said irritably, "Why are you thinking about these things? Hurry up and eat. Don't forget, you still have to go see Professor Guan later!"

Before she could finish speaking, Chen Yun's gaze was drawn to the scene at the entrance of the cafeteria.

"Yutong, look!"

"If I'm not mistaken, that should be Academician Cao Liangcai, right? Shouldn't he be at the National Aerospace Research Institute of China? Why is he at Sandaokou University?"

Su Yutong was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously turned her head to look at the cafeteria entrance.

An elderly man with graying temples, wearing a white coat, stood at the entrance of the cafeteria.

"It looks like Academician Cao Liangcai," Su Yutong said in a low voice. "Perhaps he's here to attend that conference!"

"It seems that the conference hosted by Sandaokou University this time is of a very high level!" Chen Yun exclaimed repeatedly, "Even a big name like Academician Cao is here!"

Just as Su Yutong was about to turn her head and continue eating, a figure caught her eye.

A tall, upright young man in a white coat walked briskly to Academician Cao Liangcai, who was slightly hunched over, and patted him on the shoulder familiarly. Then, the two walked out of the cafeteria, chatting and laughing.

The moment Su Yutong saw the boy's profile, her heart skipped a beat!

It's him!

Although they had only met once in the real world, she recognized him at a glance!

Subconsciously, Su Yutong suddenly stood up.

"Yu Tong? What's wrong?"

A questioning voice came from the side.

"N-nothing...it's nothing." Su Yutong smiled awkwardly. "I suddenly remembered something, I need to get to Professor Guan's place quickly!"

Chen Yun was taken aback for a moment, and subconsciously said, "But...you haven't eaten yet, shouldn't you eat something first?"

"I'm full, I'm leaving now! You can continue eating!"

After saying that, Su Yutong hurriedly left with her tray before Chen Yun could reply.

...

I have to say, the cafeteria is really crowded during mealtimes!

By the time Su Yutong squeezed out of the crowd, the figure was long gone from the road.

Looking at the somewhat empty sidewalk, a hint of loneliness flashed in Su Yutong's eyes.

Unfortunately, I missed it...

Amidst her regret, a sense of relief also arose in her heart.

Fortunately, she missed it; otherwise, she wouldn't even know what identity she should use to greet Lü Yongchang.

Su Yutong took a deep breath and turned to walk towards Professor Guan Hualiang's office.

...

"Knock knock knock!"

At the office door, Su Yutong raised her hand and gently knocked.

"Professor Guan, are you there?"

The next moment, Guan Hualiang's voice came from inside the room: "Yutong, come in, the door isn't locked."

Upon hearing this, Su Yutong subconsciously turned the doorknob, pushed open the door, and went inside: "Professor Guan, I have already completed the task you assigned yesterday..."

Upon seeing the two people sitting on the sofa, Su Yutong's pupils suddenly contracted!

"Yutong, don't worry about the homework yet. Let me explain it to you."

"This is Academician Cao Liangcai from the Aerospace Research Institute. You should know him, right?" Guan Hualiang chuckled and pointed to the old man on the sofa, then to the young man beside him.

"This person should be in the same year as you..."

“Professor Lü…” Su Yutong said softly, her voice trembling slightly.

"Huh? You know this kid Lü Yongchang?" Guan Hualiang was slightly taken aback, and then turned his questioning gaze to Lü Yongchang standing to the side.

At this moment, Lü Yongchang's brain was in a state of malfunction.

Su Yutong? How could I run into her like this?!

Originally, his and Cao Liangcai's main purpose in coming here was to get their graduation certificates and, incidentally, to receive the certificate of lifetime honorary professor of Sandaokou University.

But now...

The script seemed to be somewhat beyond his expectations.

"Yongchang?" Guan Hualiang's voice interrupted Lü Yongchang's thoughts.

He snapped out of his daze and glanced at Su Yutong in front of him with a complicated expression: "I know her."

Guan Hualiang said cheerfully, "Since we know each other, I won't go into any further introductions."

"Hey! Old Guan, what do you mean by this?" Cao Liangcai immediately objected. "They know each other, but I don't!"

Guan Hualiang rolled his eyes at Cao Liangcai and said irritably, "Fine, fine, you really are...meddling in other people's business, always having to get involved in everything!"

"Su Yutong is a student I recently took on; she's currently a junior in college."

Cao Liangcai was slightly taken aback, then raised an eyebrow: "Junior? When did you, Guan Hualiang, start accepting undergraduate students?"

"What, you don't have a single reliable graduate student left?"

"Hey, I'm telling you, don't underestimate undergraduates!" Guan Hualiang exclaimed in alarm upon hearing Cao Liangcai's words. "So what if they're undergraduates? If you really think about it, isn't Lü Yongchang an undergraduate too?"

Cao Liangcai: "..."

"Ahem! That's not a very meaningful thing to say. Is Lü Yongchang an ordinary person?"

"From what you're saying, this girl is quite promising?" Cao Liangcai quickly changed the subject.

A hint of smugness flashed in Guan Hualiang's eyes: "Of course!"

"She has now completed all the undergraduate courses through self-study."

"A while ago, she even solved a small research project on her own. Although it wasn't very difficult, it still surpassed the level of most graduate students!"

Cao Liangcai nodded thoughtfully and carefully examined Su Yutong: "According to you, she is indeed a promising candidate for scientific research!"

When he saw the way Su Yutong looked at Lü Yongchang, he was stunned and quickly turned to look at Lü Yongchang beside him.

Lü Yongchang turned his head, meeting Cao Liangcai's gaze with a puzzled expression: "???"

Cao Liangcai's gaze swept around twice.

Gradually, his gaze became strange.

"Ahem!" Cao Liangcai's heart skipped a beat, and he coughed softly. "Su Yutong, is it?"

Seeing Su Yutong looking at him, Cao Liangcai said calmly, "How about it? Interested in coming to the lab to broaden your horizons?"
