Jin Liwei didn't recognize Professor Hisakawa but he figured that he must be an important figure if he was with someone like Professor Schwarz.

”My dear, I've been looking forward to meeting you ever since I heard about you from Professor Dupont,” Professor Schwarz said. ”He rarely asks for me, you know.”

Iris smiled. Afterwards, she formally introduced Jin Liwei and the two instructors to each other.

For people who belonged to the one and only Cross Academy, they knew that they were the most elite among the elites in the world. Most of them wouldn't go around bragging to everyone that they were from Cross Academy, but in their hearts, they knew that they were special and that others were ”regular” people.

That was why, no matter how wealthy or powerful Jin Liwei was, he was still a regular person to people like Professor Schwarz and Professor Hisakawa or anyone else from Cross Academy. For people like them, they would never feel awed upon meeting Jin Liwei.

In front of the two professors, Jin Liwei felt like a child or someone insignificant. They were nice and polite, but he could feel that they didn't think much of him. This was the first in a long time that he felt this way, ever since succeeding the leadership of Jin Corporation.

Iris and Jin Liwei led their two guests to the living area for some tea while they waited for dinner.

Jin Liwei sat back and listened to their conversation. He only spoke when directly asked. The puzzle pieces were falling into place in his mind. He now had an idea which school his baby girl enrolled to.

Not many people were aware of it, but he knew that Professor Schwarz studied in that legendary Swiss school. He didn't really know Professor Hisakawa before this, but he suspected that he must also be affiliated with that school.

Jin Liwei personally never had any direct dealings with the legendary school, but he still knew a lot about it compared to the general public because Jin Corporation itself had an unexpected connection to it.

He wanted confirmation.

Clearing his throat, he asked, ”Xiulan, is the school you're enrolled in perhaps...Cross Academy?”

Iris smiled. ”Yes.”

Although he already suspected it, he still felt shocked when she confirmed it. He looked at the two instructors.

Professor Schwarz chuckled seeing his reaction. Then she turned to Iris. ”My dear, don't tell me you didn't mention it to your lover?”

Iris nodded. ”I wanted to surprise him.”

”Well, my dear. Looks like you succeeded. Just look at him.”

Jin Liwei was looking at his baby girl in amazed disbelief. He already knew that she was a genius, but he still never expected that she would reach such a level to be admitted to THE Cross Academy.

Intense pride surged through him. Before he even realized it, he was already pulling her into a tight embrace.

”You're the best, baby.”
