Chapter 213: Pre-meeting dinner

Chapter 213 Pre-Meeting Dinner

It was already dark when Yunsu woke up. After sleeping for a while, her body had recovered most of its blood. She washed her face energetically. Someone was knocking on the door softly, calling her.

"come in."

“Ms. Yun, here are the clothes for the dinner prepared for you.” The attendant handed over a black dress.

 “Dinner?” Yunsu was confused.

“Yes, tonight is the pre-meeting dinner hosted by the conference organizing committee. Dean Kang is already waiting for you.”

"Okay, I'll be quick." Yunsu didn't receive any notice of the dinner in advance and thought it was just a simple meal.

She quickly changed her clothes, arranged her hair, pulled it into a bud, and tucked the broken hair behind her ears. She was young, rosy-cheeked, and naturally beautiful. She looked pretty and charming without any makeup.

The dress skirt is simple in style and can't go wrong. Yunsu looked at the empty neck, thought for a while, and took out a box from the suitcase.

A thin silver chain hangs around his neck, with a drop-shaped pendant hanging on it, making the whole person look even more generous and decent.

 “Okay, let’s go.”

Most of the people present had met Yunsu at the seminar before, and there were a small number of people who had never seen her before. They were amazed by her beauty and even more shocked by her youth.

 “Very beautiful.” Kang Lai praised the little girl and bent his arms.

"Don't be so serious, Su. This is not a formal banquet. I just want everyone to relax before the meeting. You can do whatever you want, as long as you don't do anything troublesome." Viana shrugged and winked mischievously. .

Yunsu smiled, walked forward, put his hand into his arm, and held it weakly.

The acquaintance is Andre, the dean of the School of Mathematics at the University of London whom Yunsu met when he participated in IMO.

“Welcome, dear, and the beautiful girl, Sue.” Mr. Viana spoke pure English, low and mellow.

Mr. Viana, chairman of the organizing committee of the conference, his eyes lit up and he immediately came to greet him.

She found a seat, minding her own business and started eating. She was indeed hungry, her mouth was stuffed, and she looked like a little hamster eating secretly. The girl's cuteness was fully exposed, and her eyes were full of only The food in front of her looked nothing like the talented girl who was so calm and composed in the cameras from various countries.

Viana said a few words and went to greet the next guest.

Who's laughing? Yunsu Xunsheng looked around and saw the blond man with blue eyes looking at her with a smile. She raised her eyebrows and saw that he was an acquaintance.

“Dean Andre, long time no see.”

In the hall, the guests from all over the world looked at Yunsu intentionally or unintentionally, hesitating whether to come forward to talk, but took no action.

　　It was nightfall, and snow started to fall outside. Fortunately, the indoor heater was sufficient, and it was as warm as spring. Yunsu did not feel cold, and the two of them walked into the dinner party.

 Kang Lai was familiar with Viana and had met him at various international mathematics conferences before. He nodded slightly in greeting.

Yunsu walked out, and Kang Lai was waiting in the front hall. He took off his outer coat and put on a new plaid tie. Although he was getting older, his whole person looked more gentle and elegant, with the charm of time.

 “Okay.” Yunsu also blinked.

The originally lively dinner scene suddenly fell silent. Looking at the old man and the young man walking in, a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes.

Yunsu laughed. He didn't expect the serious professor he saw on the news to be so lively in private.

Kang Lai went to say hello to the professor he met. Yunsu had nothing to do, so she walked directly to the side and took the dinner plate, various snacks and drinks. She looked at the champagne on the side and smacked her lips. She did not dare to touch the wine again. Okay, where are the terrible lessons?

"Hello, Mr. Viana." Yunsu pulled the hem of her skirt and leaned forward slightly.

One person was holding champagne and looked at it for a long time, and couldn't help laughing.

Andre walked to sit next to her and said in a casual tone, "Why are you sitting here alone? Why don't you go and talk to everyone."

"I don't know what to talk about. They don't have anything to talk to me about," Yunsu said in a casual tone. She said almost everything she needed to say about the last seminar.

Andre's green eyes widened slightly, full of surprise. Are you kidding me? How could it be possible that he had nothing to talk about with her? At this dinner, I wonder how many people came for her?

Don’t she know that she is the focus and core of this dinner?

Yunsu stuffed another snack into her mouth. It was sweet but not greasy, and her eyes were full of satisfaction.

Andre looked at the snacks on her plate that had been mostly wiped out, and wondered: "Is it so delicious?"

 Isn’t this just an ordinary snack?

Yunsu pushed the plate towards him and said, "Try it."

Andre was not polite. He picked up a small snack and put it into his mouth. It didn't taste as amazing as expected, but looking at the girl's satisfied look, the snack in his mouth seemed to be really delicious.

 “Not bad.” Andre nodded.

Yunsu gave him a look of "I just said it's okay", and Andre once again couldn't control the smile in his eyes.

He originally had many questions that he wanted to ask her and discuss with her, but somehow, if he spoke, the relaxed atmosphere would be ruined, so he had better keep quiet.

The two of them just sat quietly, eating snacks and occasionally clinking glasses of champagne drinks. The atmosphere was extremely harmonious.

 “Go, Simon.” Konrad Adenauer encouraged him, looking at the hesitant expression on his young disciple’s face. Simon pursed his lips and looked at the girl eating in the corner, feeling hesitant and hesitant in his heart. He really wanted to go over and talk to her, but he didn't know how to speak, so he was in a dilemma.

"Simon, you must learn to face your heart, no matter how timid you are, if you don't do this, you will always be imprisoned." Adenauer said earnestly.

 After the last seminar, Simon's situation seemed to be much better, but he knew that he had not completely given up. Adenauer knew that the best way was for the two of them to have a good chat.

 But even though he asked someone to do everything possible to get Yunsu's contact information, Simon never called that number.

There were more and more times when he was in a daze and silence. Adenauer saw it and was anxious in his heart, so he also tried to find a way to let Simon come as his assistant at this mathematician conference, just to meet Yunsu. .

Simon is still hesitating.

 “Go quickly.” Adenauer pushed him.

 Simon hesitated and finally took a step.

 “Yunsu, you...hello.”

A slightly trembling voice came, and Yunsu raised her head in confusion. Apart from people from China, there were actually people calling her by her full name? Although the pronunciation is a bit awkward, it is indeed called Yunsu.

A tall and slender black-haired boy stood in front of her. His skin was so white that it was almost transparent, and his lips were bright red. He looked like a beautiful vampire boy in a medieval castle.

He was a little nervous, and the cup he was holding was shaking.

 “Simon?” Yunsu recognized the person.

"Do you remember me?" Simon's eyes widened. Apparently he didn't expect that Yunsu would remember him and call him by his name. His eyes flashed with excitement.

Seeing that someone familiar to Yunsu was coming, Andre walked away wisely.

"Why don't you remember? Today should be the third time we meet, right?" Yunsu asked, her memory is not that bad.

 Simon's nervous mood instantly relaxed a lot, and he walked over to her and sat down.

Yunsu asked casually: "Are you here with your teacher?"

"Um."

 “Your teacher is really nice to you.” I take him with me wherever I go.

"Teacher is really good to me." Simon also said that he knew that his state was not right for a long time, and the most anxious person was probably the teacher. He had been trying to persuade him and wanted to help him open up his heart. He was also very grateful to the teacher.

Yunsu looked at him, he was really a well-protected child.

She couldn't help but think of her teacher. This teacher didn't refer to Lao Li or any other teacher, but the teacher who had been leading her forward in the interstellar era.

She has always been lucky that she recognized Academician Modo of the Imperial Academy of Sciences as her teacher as early as when she was in college. The teacher taught her carefully without any reservations. He also paved the way for her and recommended her to any place where she could shine. .

 Otherwise, no matter how amazing her talent was and how hard she worked, she would not have been able to attract the attention of the empire in such a short period of time and support her in making so many scientific research results.

The teacher knew that she had always had emotional and psychological problems, but he still tolerated her with a broad mind and allowed her to live and work actively and do whatever she wanted to do.

It’s a pity that in the end, she still embarked on the road of no return. I wonder if the teacher who has returned to his hometown will jump up when he hears the news?

She couldn't help but shudder when she thought of the teacher's calm and calm face. After so many years, she still had lingering fears about some of the teacher's methods.

 “What’s wrong with you?” Simon noticed something was wrong with her.

"It's okay, I thought of my teacher." Yunsu suddenly felt that the snacks in his hand no longer tasted good.

 “Do you also have a teacher?” Simon’s eyes widened. Of course, he was referring to a formal teacher who taught by words and deeds.

"Of course, but...he is no longer here." Yunsu's tone was light, with an inexplicable meaning.

 “I’m sorry.” Simon was stunned, then quickly apologized after realizing it.

"fine."

Not only is the teacher gone, but also himself is gone. Yunsu laughed at himself.

 She was ashamed of her teacher after all.

"You...do you ever feel frustrated and powerless?" Simon hesitated for a long time and finally asked the question in his heart.

“Of course there are, there are many.” Yunsu said without thinking.

 “A lot?” Simon was stunned, how could it be?

"For example, when my dad is good at cooking and I only know how to fry the kitchen, like when my friend threw me a birthday party with weird aesthetics, or when I got drunk and went crazy and wanted to delete my memory the next day. , and now, when I obviously want to go back and lie down but still want to stay here." Yunsu said a lot.
