After Rebirth, the Celebrity Daughter is the Medical Expert!-Chapter 173 - 116: Gentle Friendship, Human Romance
The welcoming banquet of this year’s International Psychology Summit was very grand.
The guests came from all over the world, including the most renowned scholars, entrepreneurs, socialites, and cultural workers, as well as relevant leaders.
During the banquet, the hosts had also prepared a cultural performance segment for the guests on-site, and there were particularly many attendees.
Because the guests present were of considerable stature, those qualified to participate in tonight’s cultural performance were all famous actors from the United States, including some Hollywood megastars familiar to Chinese audiences.
...
Before the banquet began.
Guests dressed in formal attire gradually entered the venue.
Shi Wangyue prepared in his hotel room and timed his entrance into the banquet hall.
Upon entering, he saw many familiar faces on-site.
As soon as they saw him, these people approached him with delight to greet him.
"Rio, long time no see. I didn’t expect you to be interested in psychology too."
"Psychology is a very interesting discipline."
The young man, dressed to the nines, was even more exquisite and elegant than usual. With a gentle smile, his incredibly handsome face shone like warm jade under the light.
Few of the attendees were not enchanted by his smile.
"I agree." Some guests lifted their glasses to toast him with admiration on their faces.
"Rio, it’s a real honor to meet you here." Some were eager to embrace and shake hands with him.
"Rio, you look absolutely amazing tonight." Some guests directly voiced their compliments. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮
"Thank you." The young man nodded gracefully, accepting the compliments generously.
...
When Ning Youguang and her senior fellow apprentice Chen Yifan helped Professor Yu into the banquet hall, they immediately saw Shi Wangyue surrounded and dazzling in the center of attention.
The surprise on her face flashed briefly, but Professor Yu who was beside her caught it instantly.
"I didn’t expect Shi to be a guest tonight as well. You should go and talk to him; I’ve got little Chen here."
"He’s definitely more familiar here than I am, staying with you is more important," Ning Youguang said with a smile.
"Isn’t accompanying me something you do every day?" Professor Yu quipped, "You can’t meet Shi every day."
Chen Yifan chimed in: "Don’t worry, junior sister, the professor is with me."
Professor Yu continued with a smile: "I can run and jump, not a child that needs constant watching."
Ning Youguang steadily held her arm: "We often keep in touch through video and audio, although we’re not living in the same country, it doesn’t feel like we’re really worlds apart."
Professor Yu gently patted her hand and sighed to her two disciples beside her: "Yes, nowadays, transportation and technology have advanced. As long as one is alive, you can meet anyone anywhere, unlike in the past when carriages and letters were slow, making it difficult to see someone, so people especially cherished the time spent together."
They didn’t have much time to talk further.
They were soon surrounded by professors, experts, and scholars from other countries who approached them upon seeing their arrival.
These were renowned scholars in the field of psychology worldwide. Once they surrounded Professor Yu, they began to throw one academic question after another.
Professor Yu answered all incoming questions with substantial insights, sharing extremely professional psychology knowledge.
Ning Youguang and Chen Yifan stood guard, protecting their teacher from getting too tired.
Seeing this, Professor Yu took the opportunity to let them answer questions she knew they could handle.
She managed to take a brief rest herself.
Compared to Chen Yifan’s restraint, Ning Youguang was more adept at handling such situations.
Whenever a question fell to her, she often addressed the core issue concisely, enlightening the inquirer.
Her voice was pleasant, her words were relaxed and humorous.
Gradually, more scholars gathered around her, posing questions.
Professor Yu watched from the side with a satisfied smile.
...
Although Shi Wangyue was surrounded by people, his attention was always on the entrance of the banquet hall.
He noticed Ning Youguang and Professor Yu as soon as they entered.
Unconsciously, his feet wanted to move towards her, but considering the evening’s occasion, he stopped in his place.
He knew that, tonight, people with identities like theirs were the main attractions.
The guests surrounding him noticed that the esteemed figure’s gaze had wandered away, and quickly followed his gaze.
They then saw a group of esteemed Chinese guests surrounded by many internationally renowned scholars. Those who recognized Professor Yu actively introduced their identities to their companions around them:
