Chapter 674 Powerful Strength

Old Madam Kang’s voice was full of energy. “In the past, we said that the Weixing Underground Auction House would be given to Weizhen’s daughter, which could be considered as the maternal grandparents’ dowry. After Yangyang went missing, I was afraid that Weizhen would be upset if this matter was brought up, so I didn’t say anything. Actually… Weizhen Underground Auction House is my and the old master’s foundation. We have the right to make the decision, but we still felt the need to tell you. After all, we’re family.”

Old Madam Kang’s words were flawless, showing both kindness and authority.

Zhao Manshu’s expression did not change. Her hands did not even tremble. “Mom, you’re right. This matter should be decided by you and Dad.”

“Yes.” The old madam nodded.

Zhao Manshu stared at her reflection in the tea and pursed her lips slightly.

Another week passed…

“Academician Zhao is back.” Before Zhao Caihua returned to the country, this news had already spread throughout Imperial Capital University. Not only that, but the surrounding academies had also heard about it. After asking around, it turned out some of the admirers in Huaxia University and other top universities had even taken leave or boldly skipped classes. They were all waiting for Academician Zhao to return. It could be said that everyone was watching and waiting for her return.

The day arrived as scheduled. There was a low-profile black Cadillac parked at the entrance, but it was followed by many cars, all of which belonged to reporters and loyal fans.

Originally, this was an era where celebrities were sought after. An academician and scientist shouldn’t have such a strong influence, but Academician Zhao was able to do it. She had such a strong charisma to begin with. Every move she made on television was with a rare cold and indifferent attitude. Her neither servile nor overbearing attitude was especially fascinating.

The chancellor and some teachers were also standing at the door. The car door opened and a woman wearing a beige suit and wide-legged pants of the same color walked out. Compared to Zhao Manshu, Zhao Caihua’s eyes were calm and her hair was tied up. She looked more capable.

She and Chancellor Liao shook hands. Chancellor Liao smiled and said to her politely, “Academician Zhao, you’ve worked hard this time. I saw your speech and it was very successful.”

Zhao Caihua only smiled. She didn’t seem to be good at socializing. She gave off a very arrogant and unapproachable feeling.

This time, other than Chancellor Liao, there were many other teachers, including Ji Qingming. He silently looked at the radiant Zhao Caihua, feeling very complicated.

He was ambitious and had always wanted to be the head teacher of the school. He had already put in a lot of effort. However, a woman who was not much older than him had attained such achievements first. The more he thought about it, the more unwilling he felt. However, when he thought about the few decent students he had, especially Sheng Yang, they could be his trump cards. He would take it one step at a time and achieve a small goal. With those students, it was only a matter of time before he surpassed Zhao Caihua.

Zhao Caihua went back to her office. She usually wasn’t in the university for long, but the chancellor still reserved an office for her, which was cleaned every day.

She tucked a strand of hair behind her ear and closed her eyes slightly, looking a little tired.

“Academician Zhao,” someone called out to her. At the same time, the aroma of coffee lingered in her nose.

She opened her eyes. A sunny and handsome young man entered her sight. This was her assistant, Jin Lu. He was also the most talented student she had brought along.
