The secretary drove the car to the front of the building where Han Yuanfeng and Shi Qian waited. Han Yuanfeng was about to get in the car when he saw the woman emerge from a vehicle. Mr. Han immediately stopped.
It looked like he expected the woman to come over.
Shi Qian stared at the woman’s face in a daze, her mind blank.
‘Mother!’
This woman looked exactly like her mother.
She was bright and facile, and there was a hint of coldness in her temperament.
The woman walked up to them and smiled at Han Yuanfeng. “Minister Han.”
Han Yuanfeng nodded. “Yes, Liyue, you’re here. Come, let me introduce you.”
Minister Han spoke, and the woman looked at Shi Qian. “This is Shi Qian, a young genius. Qianqian cracked today the encrypted message we couldn’t.”
Bai Liyue looked at Shi Qian, and admiration engulfed her eyes. She smiled and said, “What a beautiful young girl and a genius! As expected, heroes come from young people.”
Shi Qian looked at Bai Liyue in a daze and muttered, “Thank you.”
Han Yuanfeng continued, “Qianqian, this is the Dean of C University’s Institute of Science and Technology, Bai Liyue. Dean Bai has stayed abroad all this while and just returned last year. She has made extraordinary achievements in the field of computer science. You can interact more with Dean Bai in the future.” Shi Qian stared at Bai Liyue.
Her surname was also Bai, just like her mother, but her name was different.
“You flatter me, Minister Han,” said Bai Liyue.
She spoke and glanced at Shi Qian. “I believe I should learn from this lady. 1 wasn’t able to decipher that encrypted message.”
She continued after a quick pause. “Qianqian, you looked so young. Are you still in school?”
Shi Qian calmed herself down and nodded slightly. “Yes, I’m a freshman at Imperial University.”
Bai Liyue smiled lightly. “So you’re a freshman. Welcome.”
She extended her hand to Shi Qian.
Shi Qian glanced at her hand and gently shook it. “Hello, Dean Bai.”
Han Yuanfeng said, “Liyue, I still have things to do. 1 won’t linger anymore.
Let’s talk another day.”
“Alright, I’ll go in first.”
“Okay, goodbye then, Dean.” Han Yuanfeng looked at Shi Qian afterward.
“Goodbye, Dean Bai.” Shi Qian looked at Bai Liyue.
“Goodbye,” Bai Liyue chuckled.
Shi Qian and Han Yuanfeng got into the car together.
Shi Qian sat, and the image of Bai Liyue filled her mind. She looked exactly like her mother.
“Uncle Han, has Dean Bai been overseas all this time?”
“That’s right,” Han Yuanfeng said. “I heard that she’s been overseas and only returned last year. We met last year.”
“Then is her family overseas?” Shi Qian asked again.
“Family? 1 had never heard of this, nor had she ever heard her mention her family.” Han Yuanfeng turned to look at Shi Qian.
“It’s nothing. 1 just feel Dean Bai looks sparingly familiar.” Shi Qian chuckled.
Han Yuanfeng smiled, and admiration shrouded his tone. “Dean Bai is an outstanding woman.”
Soon, the car arrived at the intersection. Shi Qian immediately said, “I’ll get off here.”
“I’ll send you to school,” Han Yuanfeng insisted.
“No need. I’ll go to school myself.” Shi Qian smiled.
“Then be careful. Tell me when you get there.”
“Alright.” Shi Qian emerged from the car and hailed a taxi back to school.
Shi Qian was still in a daze in the taxi.
Shi Qian couldn’t help but think about Bai Liyue. Her eyes, actions, voice, and smile flashed clearly in her mind. They overlapped with her mother’s.
Shi Qian took her phone out afterward and sent a message to Gui Mo from the Hacker Corps.
[Shi Qian: Gui Mo, are you busy?]
Gui Mo quickly replied to her message.
[Gui Mo: 1 could spare time.. Why?]
