Imperial Treasure-Chapter 920 - 557: Visitor (Part 2)

Mo Ke and Sui Yi both looked at her.

"Uh.. why are you staring at me like that? I’m just saying casually, but I think these things should be most valuable to you archaeology folks. Oh right, I just heard on the way that your archaeology professors are having a conference."

National archaeology conference at Beijing University.

Because the leading figures in archaeology are all at Beijing University, the university has quite a high level of influence in this field.

But despite the influence, Qing University snatched it this time.

"That Frank suddenly said he wants to hold a research launch conference to let more people see these treasures and further study their cultural value. The whole world is waiting eagerly for his announcement; the USA, United Kingdom have made preparations, and even the Louvre is ready to go, but he chose Qing University in our country... I find this so odd!"

Although choosing Qing University shocked the world, it’s not without reason.

"These items clearly have a cultural inclination towards China, coupled with China’s increased international influence in recent years, it’s not impossible," Liang Bing said while eating fruit.

"But no matter how you say it, it’s Qing University instead of Beijing University, and this outcome is enough to infuriate Beijing University while letting Qing University gloat; the forums are buzzing, and Qing University’s cunning folks are all over the news."

The forums are indeed bubbling over with excitement, but at this point, students from any university are very enthusiastic about this conference.

Firstly because of the value and mystery of these treasures, secondly because Frank’s adventurous legend itself can really stimulate the younger generation’s desire for adventure.

"On that day, Qing University will definitely have strict surveillance. Besides the people from Qing University, only those with invitation letters can enter, so this quota is still precious. We at Beijing University can strive for a portion, but it doesn’t mean everyone will get it; I’m envious of you archaeology folks, the whole department can go."

This is not consolation for Beijing University, rather because Beijing University’s archaeology department is inherently part of this conference.

Sui Yi and Mo Ke exchanged a glance.

Compared to the previous days’ trivial debates over campus celebrities, this conference clearly holds more significance.

Sui Yi looked out at the clear sky beyond the railing.

Frank?

In fact, this is not just an academic event, but a feast for the elites, and a storm for the collecting world.

How many people see immense wealth, glorious history, and symbols of honor from those dozen pictures?

Sui Yi expected things to become quite significant, but not this significant.

For example, on the day before the research conference began, Saturday, the door of her home was knocked on.

Fatty Gao ran over and opened the door, then froze, and chuckled towards Sui Yi in the living room.

"Oh~~ boss, I bet you’ll never guess who’s here."

Sitting on the sofa, hand-writing a paper, Sui Yi looked up, squinting.

"To make you use your weird English-accented Chinese, and someone you’re familiar with... must be people from Junshi Titan."

She got up and walked to the door, where she saw the Duke and Duchess along with their son.

And the Cao siblings.

They were indeed rare guests.

---------

It was apparent that the Duke’s family was here for the Frank Research Association. Given that they headed straight to Sui Yi instead of visiting the Cao Family right after disembarking, it obviously was communicated with the Cao Family.

To them, Sui Yi was not just a lifesaver, but also a supremely formidable individual worthy of respect, both families held the same view, hence today’s visit.

"We’re very sorry; we intended to inform you in advance, but just had to surprise you, so we came secretly without notifying the security outside..."

Losar apologized, but Chark had already hugged Sui Yi’s leg.

Their son clearly didn’t play by the rules, unlike his still respectful parents.

Who hugs people’s legs right upon entering?

Nonetheless, it seems this approach worked best.

Sui Yi smiled.

——————

Over at Su Family.

Su Zimu was just about to head out with some documents, and saw over a dozen stern-looking bodyguards in black standing quietly outside a house.

The car was parked in the driveway.

Su Zimu paused in his steps.

"Seems like a distinguished foreign guest has arrived."

"It’s the Junshi Titan from the United Kingdom; I just got the news from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and their people even refused the ministry’s accompaniment arrangements today and came straight here..."

"Our neighbor’s social influence is more formidable than we imagined."

The Su Family, already nostalgic for the warmth of the ancestral home, visited frequently, especially now at the year’s start—it’s bustling, with many stopping by for rest and meals after work. Suddenly seeing so many people in the typically reserved traditional courtyard naturally sparked discussions.

Some even inquired about Sui Yi with Su Zimu regarding recent events on the university forums.

For instance, Xu Qingxin actively brought up the university forum incident from a few days ago, piquing the interest of the older generation...

Due to Su Family rules, Ming Lanyuan didn’t reveal much to Su Zimu, who only knew that Sui Yi had met them abroad. However, at that moment, Junshi Titan instantly dragged her into the Hellfire incident.

Junshi Titan was indeed a very peculiar entity in the Hellfire incident, although the official explanation glosses over it, suggesting some tacit understanding, yet those adept with words and writing clearly sense the ambiguity in the wording.

So... she indeed participated in the Hellfire incident.

Su Zimu gently straightened his coat, putting away a stack of ancient literature materials.

"You’re not going?" Old Master Su asked, surprised.

"She has guests at home; it wouldn’t be appropriate for me to go, and there’s plenty of time in the future."

Su Zimu softly explained, paused, and looked at the younger generation who were discussing Sui Yi just now.

"Though Gu Sansi is rare, there’s only one Sui Yi in the Human Realm."

The Su Family was silent. (To be continued. If you enjoy this work, feel free to vote for it on qidian.com with your recommendation votes or monthly votes. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please visit m.qidian.com to read.)
