Chapter 32 I Know You
As if noticing her gaze, Li Jinxing also looked over subconsciously. The two people's eyes intertwined briefly. Li Jinxing raised his eyebrows slightly, and a faint smile appeared on his face.
Nie Yao was also a little surprised. She walked directly towards Li Jinxing and asked in surprise, "Why are you here?"
Before Li Jinxing could answer, the museum director beside him recognized Nie Yao and said with a surprised smile: "Ivy, it turned out to be you——"
Nie Yao also looked at the old curator with gray hair, nodded and smiled politely: "Director Chen, it's been a while..."
"It's been a long time since we last met. How is your health, Dr. Fred?" Director Chen greeted warmly.
"My adoptive father is in good health, thank you for your concern..." Nie Yao replied with a smile.
"That's good. We're all old now, and we can't move around all the time..." Director Chen asked with concern, "By the way, I heard you were still in Egypt. How did you find time to return home?"
"Yes, I came back to visit my relatives and take a vacation..." Nie Yao smiled faintly and did not intend to mention the fact that she was adopted by the Nie family.
Director Chen didn't ask any more questions. He just smiled and nodded, then introduced her to Li Jinxing beside him, "Mr. Li, she's the adopted daughter of an old friend of mine. She's also very professional in ancient Egyptian culture. She's currently studying archaeology at the University of California, Irvine. She's a formidable student..."
Li Jinxing nodded slightly, looking at Nie Yao with a half-smile: "I know!"
Director Chen was stunned for a moment, looking between the two for a moment, then suddenly realized and smiled, "So you two know each other, then there's no need for me to introduce you!"
Nie Yao also nodded and smiled, but she was secretly wondering in her heart, it is true that Li Jinxing knew that she was a member of the Nie family, but when did he find out so much about her major?
"By the way, Ivy, since you are here for vacation, I would like to ask you for a favor..." Director Chen said this and described to Nie Yao the China-Egypt cultural exchange lecture to be held by the local South China University.
"Their archaeology department asked me to recommend a professional to give lectures to their students. Now that you're here, you're doing me a favor. Ivy, there's no one more suitable than you!"
Seeing Director Chen eagerly hoping for her agreement, Nie Yao thought for a moment, and since she didn't have anything else to do, she smiled and nodded, saying, "Okay, I'll agree. However, I'm still a student after all, so I'm not sure if it's appropriate..."
"Of course it's suitable. You're not an ordinary student!" Director Chen was afraid that she would change her mind, so he quickly asked for her phone number with a smile and said, "I'll go tell them and let you know when the time and place for the speech are set!"
After Director Chen left, Li Jinxing chuckled and joked, "Who would have thought that the guy who took off his shoes and beat someone up at the banquet would be a top student in the Archaeology Department..."
Nie Yao's face flushed slightly. She shrugged and argued righteously, "A lady sitting in an office can't do archaeological work! Beating someone up is nothing. You haven't seen anything worse!"
Li Jinxing let out a low laugh and raised his eyebrows, asking, "I wonder when you can let me see it for myself?"
"Unless you have time to join me on a field archaeological excavation!" Nie Yao said casually, then looked at his well-tailored suit, shook her head and sighed, "Forget it, a rich young man like you is still not suitable!"
