Chapter 179: Chapter 179: Also a Fisherman

Flowing long hair and wearing black-framed glasses.

Not to mention the aura she exudes like a researcher, from Liao Xuexue’s words alone, everyone could already identify this person’s identity.

The next second, Liao Xuexue began explaining this person’s identity to Zhou Tao.

"Ah sir... she is my teacher, Professor Zhou Fanghua from the history department of Jiang City University."

"She is also a disciple of Mr. Jin Tie."

Zhou Tao nodded, realizing there was no reason to send her away after knowing Professor Zhou Fanghua’s identity.

Professor Zhou Fanghua, who had hurried here, initially planned to focus on the porcelain on the shore after getting out of the car.

However, upon hearing this familiar voice, she was a bit surprised.

She looked over, "Liao Xuexue, you..."

Liao Xuexue’s face suddenly turned red.

After all, she had been skipping classes for the past two days to accompany Ye Chen, and felt somewhat embarrassed for a moment.

"Professor Zhou, I..."

"Ye Chen is my grandfather’s friend, I am accompanying him fishing."

Professor Zhou Fanghua approached everyone slowly, then took a glance at Ye Chen next to Liao Xuexue.

Then with a pensive expression, she said in an elder’s tone, "Xuexue, your taste is not bad."

"But don’t let emotions hinder your studies."

Liao Xuexue’s face, already flushed, turned even shyer upon hearing this.

She stuttered, wanting to explain, but couldn’t say anything.

Fortunately, Professor Zhou Fanghua did not dwell too much on this matter.

She changed the topic, saying, "I also received notice from my teacher, Mr. Jin Tie..."

After speaking, she looked at her wristwatch, "Mr. Jin Tie was already boarding the plane when he called me; he should be arriving soon, let’s wait a bit more."

After saying this, she began curiously observing Ye Chen at her side.

The words Professor Zhou Fanghua said were not just pleasantries.

That is to say, among her students, Liao Xuexue was one of the most outstanding.

Of course, not only because of her beauty and likable personality.

But also because Liao Xuexue was highly talented and perceptive.

Furthermore, being from the same hometown, Professor Zhou Fanghua treated Liao Xuexue like her own child.

Her gaze towards Ye Chen naturally made Liao Xuexue blush even more.

In Professor Zhou Fanghua’s eyes, this young man named Ye Chen might just be a youth fond of fishing.

However, he looked full of vitality, a temperament completely different from those young idols she had seen on TV.

Handsome facial features, strong muscles, bronzed skin, and a composed and confident aura about him.

Plus, the recent popularity of this lad on the internet could also be described as rising to prominence at a young age.

He could indeed be a match for Liao Xuexue.

Thus, after observing Ye Chen for a while, Professor Zhou Fanghua showed a satisfying expression that even surprised Ye Chen.

However, Professor Zhou Fanghua did not forget that she had more important things to do.

Next, she started observing the blue and white porcelain on the shore.

She was observing it very seriously, her facial expressions sometimes complex, sometimes surprised, occasionally frowning in thought.

Under such circumstances, nobody disturbed the work of the history professor from Jiang City University.

At the same time, Professor Zhou Fanghua also did not introduce the status of the blue and white porcelain to the surrounding crowd.

Ye Chen could understand this.

After all, as Zhou Tao mentioned, her master would be arriving soon.

If she said too much now, it might be deemed as disrespectful to her teacher.

Although Professor Zhou Fanghua’s reputation was not as great as her mentor, Mr. Jin Tie.

However, she was still a professor currently serving at Jiang City University.

Before long, she was recognized by the viewers in the live stream room.

Meanwhile, from the jug Ye Chen had fished up, which everyone thought to be worthless, the audience was also awaiting the arrival of the expert to evaluate it.

...

Half an hour later.

A taxi rushed into Haina Baichuan Fish Pond.

An old man and a middle-aged man stepped down from the car.

The old man was skinny, with white hair, and although he seemed to be in his seventies or eighties, his eyes were bright.

The middle-aged man beside him was carrying something like a toolbox, following the old man.

Seeing this, Ye Chen made a judgment.

This old man was probably the archaeological expert, Mr. Jin Tie, that Zhou Tao had just mentioned.

As for the middle-aged man, either he was the old man’s assistant or his student.

Soon...

What followed confirmed Ye Chen’s guess.

Professor Zhou Fanghua, who had been observing the porcelain, now put down her work.

She then joyfully walked towards the two, saying:

"Master, senior brother, you’ve arrived?"

The old man, showing a kind smile, slowly nodded, "Fanghua, you’ve worked hard, it’s troublesome for you to make this trip."

Then, he focused on the blue and white porcelain not far on the shore, "But you should be aware, if this porcelain is indeed from the early Tang dynasty, as I suspect."

"Then, it may likely change the history of Jiang City, I know, you have been striving for this for many years..."

Professor Zhou Fanghua was startled.

Then she composed herself, her expression solemn as she nodded.

Then, she pulled Liao Xuexue aside, introducing her, "Master, this is my student."

"She was at the scene when this porcelain was discovered."

It was evident that Liao Xuexue was somewhat nervous facing this great figure in archaeology.

She respectfully nodded to Jin Tie and greeted, "Hello, grandmaster."

Unexpectedly, Jin Tie suddenly laughed, "I recognize you, old Liao’s granddaughter, Assistant to Mr. Ye, right?"

This made Ye Chen somewhat puzzled at his side.

After all, including Liao Xuexue, they all were from the history circle.

How could this old man suddenly mention him and even call him Mr. Ye?

Soon, this nationally renowned archaeologist provided the answer to Ye Chen.

"Mr. Ye, there is no need for such a shocked expression."

"Speaking of researching these archaeological finds, perhaps you aren’t as good as me."

"But when it comes to fishing up such incredible things, this old man really feels ashamed!"

"In fact, I am also a fan of yours!"

"In your young people’s terms, we both are fishing enthusiasts!"

Hearing this, Ye Chen’s confusion was finally resolved.

It turns out this old man had also become a staunch viewer of his live stream.
