Chapter 177 Chapter 177 [Daily Transition]...
Hearing the voice, Lin Yimu turned his head and saw that it was Brother Fang. Behind him were all the people who were attending the conference. Except for Professor Jiang who had not yet arrived, almost everyone was already there.
Fang Wenduan was extremely happy when he saw Lin Yimu at this time.
He ran away before the award ceremony was over in the morning, saying only that he had to go back to the hotel for something. After that, he could not be contacted at all, until just now. If Lin Yi Mu didn't show up, he didn't know how to explain to the professor. After all, Lin Yi Mu only said hello to him before leaving. If something happened here, he would really have no way to defend himself.
Thinking of this, Fang Wenduan's original joy at seeing Lin Yimu calmed down, and he felt somewhat resentful towards Lin Yimu in his heart.
The resentment in his heart was brought to the surface and reflected in the words that Fang Wenduan said, with a very aggressive tone.
"Finally we found you. Didn't you say you had something to do at the hotel? But not only were you not there when we got back, but you've only just come back now. The professor is getting really angry and said he'd go to the police station and ask them for help if you don't come back."
Lin Yimu listened to Senior Brother Fang's words without feeling uncomfortable at all. Instead, he smiled apologetically and kept apologizing. After all, he knew that he was not considerate enough this time.
As the saying goes, you should never hit a smiling person. Seeing Lin Yimu's attitude, Fang Wenduan's anger suddenly disappeared. He couldn't help but smile, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Alright, alright, since you already know you're wrong, don't leave without saying a word next time. It's no joke if something goes wrong in H Country where you're unfamiliar with the place."
"Got it. Thank you, Senior Brother Fang, for being magnanimous and not holding it against me." Seeing that the other party was no longer angry, Lin Yimu also laughed.
The group of researchers who had been standing behind the two men saw that the tense atmosphere between them had finally eased, so they stepped forward and asked about Lin Yimu's situation.
At this time, Lin Yimu finally remembered He Xiuji who followed him back. He turned his head and looked behind him. He saw He Xiuji watching the interaction between him and his fellow brothers with a smile in his eyes. He quickly walked over, took his hand and introduced him to everyone: "Dear brothers, this is the friend I just told you about. I went to see him this morning."
Upon hearing this, Fang Wenduan and the others also turned their attention to He Xiuji. The first thing they noticed was not his appearance, but his handsome face behind his cold and noble temperament.
The moment they saw He Xiuji, the people who were originally jumping and laughing suddenly became reserved and steady. The atmosphere also became a little strange, and everyone was a little cautious when greeting each other.
As someone who was used to big scenes, He Xiuji naturally noticed the discomfort of the crowd, but he did not deliberately change his attitude. Instead, he tried to get to know everyone in a gentle tone.
After both parties exchanged their names, Professor Jiang also came down. Looking at the lively scene, he glanced around with some confusion, and finally his eyes stopped on He Xiuji.
After all, his aura and temperament made him stand out among a group of students who had not yet left the school.
Professor Jiang walked into the crowd, looking at He Xiuji thoughtfully, and finally turned his gaze to Lin Yimu who was standing with He Xiuji, "Xiaomu, are you with this gentleman?"
"Professor, this is the friend I met this morning. He came to Country H on a business trip and came to see me." Lin Yimu hurriedly explained to Professor Jiang.
He Xiuji also cooperated very well. He put away his aloof and sharp aura, bowed politely to Professor Jiang, and introduced himself: "Hello, professor. I am He Xiuji, Xiaomu's..." He paused for a moment, glanced at the people around him, and continued with the introduction between Lin Yimu, "Friend."
Of course Lin Yimu saw the look in He Xiuji's eyes and felt a little apologetic. He didn't think too much about it when he first introduced He Xiuji to the senior brothers and just said "friend" out of habit. Now seeing He Xiuji hesitate when introducing himself to others, he felt a little uncomfortable.
So, the moment He Xiuji finished speaking, she added, "He's also my boyfriend."
After saying that, Lin Yimu felt a force on his hand, and then he realized that their hands were held together without him noticing.
After hearing Lin Yimu's words, except for Professor Jiang who showed no surprise, the others all looked at the two in surprise.
It was not until Professor Jiang coughed twice that everyone turned their eyes away embarrassedly.
"It's okay for young people to fall in love, but don't forget to report it next time. Don't forget the important things because of the impulse." Professor Jiang smiled kindly and teased the two.
"I understand, professor. I promise there won't be a next time." Lin Yimu's face turned red when he heard Professor Jiang's teasing, but his tense heart also relaxed.
Looking at Professor Jiang's attitude, Lin Yimu knew that the professor was not prejudiced against their relationship like ordinary parents, and was even very open-minded.
As for the other senior students from the research institute, Lin Yimu didn't know their attitudes yet, but just as he had thought before, since it had been said, he would just let things take their course. If they accepted his relationship with He Xiuji, they would continue to be friends, and if they didn't accept it or took the initiative to distance themselves from him, he would not force it.
Lin Yimu's thought only lasted a moment. When Professor Jiang counted the number of people and prepared to set off, Lin Yimu said hello to He Xiuji and followed him to the Capital University of Country H.
After Lin Yimu and his group disappeared at the hotel entrance, He Xiuji turned around and got on the elevator. He had a faint smile on his face throughout the whole process, which made the front desk staff who had been watching him exclaim that the iceberg had melted.
On Lin Yimu's side, except for Fang Wenduan, who had a good relationship with Lin Yimu and continued to talk and laugh with him, everyone else was more or less at a loss as to how to get along with Lin Yimu when facing him.
It was not until everyone arrived at the venue on time that the atmosphere between the few people eased a little.
The venue was still the auditorium where the awards were presented in the morning, but the layout had changed. It was replaced with a podium suitable for speeches, and there were several blackboards behind it for answering questions. Sitting in the audience were all mathematicians who were interested in this topic.
Lin Yimu scanned the audience and finally sat down in a seat near the front. He planned to finish his own speech and then listen carefully to others' speeches, perhaps they would provide some inspiration for his current topic.
After Lin Yi Mu chose his seat and sat down, Fang Wenduan also sat down next to him. Also sitting with them was a senior brother who Lin Yi Mu could usually talk to. The rest of the people subconsciously found a seat far away from Lin Yi Mu and sat down.
Lin Yimu felt the sudden change in everyone's attitude, but he didn't feel too disappointed. After he told them about his relationship with He Xiuji, he had already anticipated the current situation. Besides, he didn't live his life for others to see, and he didn't look for a partner for others, so why should he care about other people's opinions.
What surprised Lin Yimu was that Fang Wenduan and another senior brother chose to sit next to him. After all, people now generally have prejudices against same-sex relationships, unlike in 2022 before his rebirth, when people were generally much more accepting of the same-sex group. But even so, only young people today have a high acceptance, while older people still have prejudices and do not understand.
The current situation in the world is that even many young people are still unable to accept it, or do not understand this group. At this time, the choices made by the two people really puzzled Lin Yimu.
Feeling Lin Yimu's scrutiny, Fang Wenduan saw that the other people sitting far away still had something in common, so he immediately put his arm around Lin Yimu's shoulder and said with a smile, "Don't think too much. Everyone's acceptance is different, and it's not your fault to like a man. You know the ups and downs of feelings yourself. As long as you don't have a problem with your character, we can still be friends."
"Having said that, I am still quite surprised by you, Senior Brother Fang, and Senior Brother Qian. Aren't you afraid that you will be isolated if you continue to be with me? After all, their behavior is in line with the public psychology now." Lin Yimu asked with some curiosity.
It's not that he was being pretentious and demanded an explanation, but he was just genuinely curious.
When he and He Xiuji went to the movies together before, most of the young people they met were contemptuous and abusive towards them.
Unexpectedly, Fang Wenduan waved his hand indifferently and said, "What's the big deal? We are basically busy doing experiments right now. We don't have the time to gossip. Don't you think so, Old Qian?" As he said that, he nudged Qian Shixun, who was sitting next to him, with his arm.
Qian Shixun also nodded, "That's right. Besides, Professor Jiang, your direct supervisor doesn't mind, so you don't have to worry about what others say. Your talent can't be buried by such things."
Qian Shixun finally said something very realistic but also very correct.
For a talent like Lin Yimu, as long as he has no problems with his character and morals, he will basically be sought after by many prestigious universities and research institutes wherever he goes, so there is no need to worry about such things.
What's more...Lin Yimu's boyfriend doesn't look like an ordinary person just by his temperament.
Although Brother Qian doesn't talk much, he has his own standards in his heart.
Lin Yimu thought about it and it made sense. Besides, he was planning to graduate early. After graduation, he would most likely go to the Aerospace Research Institute to complete the tasks issued by the system. At that time, he would not care about these messy things.
Thinking of this, Lin Yimu stopped asking questions and concentrated on preparing the next speech.
As for what was to be explained next, Lin Yimu found it easier to understand after completing all the courses provided by the system. He did not need any manuscripts at all and could speak directly, so he just went over it in his mind.
Soon, it was Lin Yimu's turn to go on stage and give a speech.
Lin Yi Mu confidently explained his solution to the new Mersenne conjecture, and occasionally answered questions from the audience about some of the processes. The speech went very smoothly and no inexplicable things happened. This made Lin Yi Mu happiest.
After all, ever since his rebirth, he seemed to be plagued by bad luck and always encountered troubles in some matters.
Lin Yi Mu's speech went smoothly, while He Xiu Ji, after receiving the clothes bought for Lin Yi Mu by the clerk, received a phone call and went out without any time to rest.
