70s Delicate Girl: A Guide to Being a Rich Woman-Chapter 310: Open Lecture

"I’ll go with you this afternoon, and hear what Grandpa has to say," Yin Yang said with a smile.

"Sure, but it won’t help you much since you don’t study this," Xu Mumu replied with a smile.

"I did study it! My grandpa used to love teaching students, and when there was no one to teach, he would pull me in to learn. I’ve learned a lot of the stuff you’re studying now," Yin Yang said with a smile. If Professor Song hadn’t been reported by his own student, he would definitely be more enthusiastic about teaching now.

Unfortunately, once bitten by a snake, ten years afraid of a rope. Professor Song has become rather indifferent to the students now.

"What did you learn back then?" Xu Mumu asked curiously, looking at Yin Yang.

"A lot, so much I can barely remember," Yin Yang said with a smile. In his childhood, if it hadn’t been for his grandpa’s protection, he might have been killed by his dad and those women of his.

It wasn’t until he was a bit older and had some ability to protect himself that things improved.

Those times were too dark for him, and he didn’t want Xu Mumu to know about them.

"What’s your family’s main business?" Xu Mumu was more curious about this. His brothers from other mothers were so relentless and scheming, it had to be something important.

"Pretty mixed, but mainly in jewelry. If you ever want to wear jewelry, it won’t be a problem," Yin Yang said with a smile.

"You know, I’ve told you before, my family has a mine, and I have the map for it. The Yun Family wants to get hold of its location. It’s a jade mine, and the quality is decent," Yin Yang continued, revealing that this was known to only a few people. Even his dad knew only of its existence but not its location.

"I’ve grabbed a golden thigh," Xu Mumu blinked, looking at Yin Yang.

"That’s not all; developments abroad have been good in these years. We have two more jade mines and a diamond mine that can be mined for a decade without issue," Yin Yang said with a smile.

"So wealthy..." Xu Mumu was at a loss for words. This guy was so rich, yet he had taken a fancy to her, a simple country girl—it felt unrealistic.

"Yep, it’s yours in the future too," Yin Yang chuckled.

"Let me take this in," Xu Mumu rubbed her temples, pondering his willingness to disclose his wealth without fear of her making off with his riches.

No, this guy surely has his ways of protection, so he isn’t worried about her causing trouble.

"Alright, go rest for a bit, Grandpa will start teaching soon," Yin Yang said with a smile. He hadn’t been so blunt with Xu Mumu before, so the shock she felt now was enormous.

"Sure," Xu Mumu nodded.

Lying in bed, Xu Mumu thought of the treasures she had hidden away. They didn’t need to be hidden at all, as Yin Yang wouldn’t care for them.

Soon enough, she set aside those thoughts, focusing on resting to prepare for Professor Song’s public lecture.

When the alarm went off, Xu Mumu opened her eyes, having dozed off for a bit. After refreshing herself, she and Yin Yang, carrying their books, headed to school.

Professor Song’s public lecture was in a large classroom, filled with many attendees.

They arrived relatively late, and the two found seats more towards the back.

Just before the lecture began, Professor Song arrived, clutching his books.

Professor Song exuded vigor, wearing reading glasses fitting of a scholarly professor.

As soon as Professor Song arrived, the classroom hushed.

Holding significant respect within the school as a distinguished old professor, students showed him great regard.

Xu Mumu glanced around, noticing nearly all students from their major were present, along with others from the physics department. Despite belonging to different classes, mixed lessons gave them some familiarity.

Seeing the quiet attendance, Professor Song began his lecture after ringing the start bell.

Listening to Professor Song’s lecture covered topics she had learned in university, which she had already studied. Lost in contemplation, Xu Mumu realized she had been learning far ahead, highlighting the disparity with her classmates.

Expecting Professor Song to delve into profound topics, Xu Mumu had brought her notebook prepared for advanced note-taking.

Despite that, she listened intently throughout the lecture. Thanks to Professor Song’s intriguing delivery, even subjects she had learned became insightful anew.

His professorial expertise shone, broadening the discussion with fascinating extensions.

"Listening so intently? Didn’t you already learn this?" Yin Yang said with a smile.

"Yes, but Sir Song’s lectures are fascinating. He seldom explains in detail, preferring to hand me books to self-study, offering help only when I’m stuck," Xu Mumu replied with a smile.

"Isn’t that great?" Yin Yang smiled, giving her hand a squeeze under the desk.

"Okay," Xu Mumu nodded. Since most of her learning was self-directed, it indeed honed her capabilities.

From the start of the lecture, Professor Song noticed them but refrained from greeting during the class. Afterward, many who didn’t understand hurried to him with their inquiries.

Surrounded by students eager for answers, Professor Song had no time to greet Xu Mumu and Yin Yang.

The break after class was brief, and the next session began soon, leaving some questions unasked as the class resumed.

Thankfully, those with lingering questions noted them down. Even without immediate access to Professor Song, guidance from other teachers or library resources remained available.

The two public lectures passed harmoniously. With classes scheduled next, Xu Mumu and Yin Yang returned to their respective disciplines.

Cuddling her books as she walked to class, Su Yue’e briskly caught up to her.

"Mumu, I’m sorry," Su Yue’e apologized, looking at Xu Mumu.

"Mm," Xu Mumu said flatly, not intending to converse much with Su Yue’e.

"I slipped, and Lin Shuxue heard it, leading to everyone knowing. It wasn’t my intention for it to spread so widely," Su Yue’e pursed her lips, reluctantly, fearing Xu Mumu would tell Professor Song to revoke her current job.

"I’m over it. Just don’t hover around me," Xu Mumu said, giving Su Yue’e a glance.

"Could you not ask Professor Song and the department to revoke my position?" Su Yue’e pleaded with Xu Mumu, cherishing this dream opportunity.

"As long as you perform well, no one will interfere," Xu Mumu replied, slightly pursing her lips before swiftly walking away.
