"We can't rule out this possibility. After all, the higher dimensions are only the predictions of scientists. In fact, we can't transcend the dimensions at the moment.”

Lin Yi smiled and changed the topic back to Ricci.

"If you understand the high dimensions, you will know that the Ricci flow is the cluster effect of the low latitudes.”

"I see, I understand now!”Student Dali was enlightened and happily thanked Lin Yi. Then, he wanted to return to his bedroom to continue learning the Ricci flow.

However, Lin Yi suddenly called out to her.

"Teacher Lin, is there anything else?”

" It's not a big deal. I just wanted to ask, why did you think of coming to iPartment..." Lin Yi scratched his head and asked the question that had been buried in his heart for the past two days.

Upon hearing this question, Dali's body stiffened slightly. He raised his head slightly carefully and stared at Lin Yi's face."I just hope that I can consult Teacher Lin better…If Teacher Lin doesn't like me living in the apartment, I can move out.”

"It's not that exaggerated. I welcome you too.”Lin Yi smiled." Alright, if there's nothing else, go back first. Don't study too late. Pay attention to the balance between work and rest."”

"Yes! Thank you, Teacher Lin."

This is the first time Teacher Lin has shown concern for me…

Student Dali nodded heavily, feeling warm in his heart.

The next day.

Binhai University Mathematics Department.

"Lin, nice to meet you!"

In the mathematics department conference room, Lester wanted to give Lin Yi a bear hug the moment he saw him.

Lin Yi politely declined and took half a step back.

"Forget it. We Xia people don't like to greet each other like this.”

Lester's face fell."Oh, that's a shame," he said.”

The dean heaved a sigh of relief.

He had been worried sick these past two days.

Lester was an internationally renowned math prodigy, a top scholar that every university competed for.

However, who would have known that such a mathematics master, Fields Medal winner, would quietly buy a plane ticket and fly to Binhai City alone!

If it wasn't for the fact that a mathematics student had recognized him, this idiot would probably still be lost in school and wandering around!

Although the dean wanted Lester to stay at Jiao Tong University, he knew that he could not decide whether a mathematics master like him would stay or not.

Helpless, he could only find a decent hotel near Jiao Tong University and let Lester stay there temporarily. He would only decide whether to stay or leave when Lin Yi came over.

" Professor Lin," the dean said with a smile," I'll leave Mr. Lester to you. I've completed my task."”

Lin Yi nodded and turned to Lester.

"Why don't you come to my office that specializes in mathematics research?”

Lester was very willing to accept this invitation.

The reason why he came to Binhai City was because he couldn't suppress his curiosity. He wanted to know how many brains did Lin Yi have to solve a hundred-year-old math problem that even he was helpless about!

Lin Yi's office was very spacious. The most eye-catching thing was the three rows of bookshelves inside.

Lester picked up a book called 'Cluster Theory' and flipped through it. He asked casually,""Lin, I really want to know how you came up with the idea of using Riemann measurements to substitute Ricci flow and then come into contact with Poincaré conjecture!”

Lin Yi made Lester a cup of tea.

The rich Pu 'er tea fragrance quickly spread, making Lester sniffle.

"What fragrant tea!"

Leicester was a true British noble, and he had a noble title awarded by the Queen of Britain.

And the three symbols of the British aristocracy were the London accent, afternoon tea, and private life!

This Baron Leicester had almost everything!

Lin Yi shrugged and explained casually,""It's actually very simple. Just like Newton said, I'm just standing on the shoulders of giants. If it weren't for the fact that Marlton and Perelman, two seniors in the mathematics world, created the Ricci flow and deduced that the Poincaré conjecture could be solved using the Ricci flow, perhaps I wouldn't have had the chance to solve this problem.”

Lester was stunned.

"There are really two mathematicians who created the Ricci flow? I thought…"

"Thought what?" Lin Yi asked in confusion.

Lester sighed and said slowly,""I thought you couldn't stand fame and fortune and made up two mathematicians. But to be honest, the Ricci Style is like the secret manual in Chinese martial arts movies. If I have this secret manual and can't find the creator, I'm not sure if I can tell the truth to the public without selfishness like you!”

Lin Yi laughed and raised his teacup.""What use is fame and fortune to me? To the great mathematics!”

" To the great mathematics!"

Before this, Lester had only admired Lin Yi's intelligence and wisdom, which was why he had said such shocking words in the interview, saying that he was willing to be Lin Yi's lackey.

At this moment, he was absolutely sincere and admired Lin Yi without reservation, whether it was in terms of academics or character!

The two of them were of similar age and their research direction was the same.

It was not like what the outside news had speculated, where Mars crashed into Earth after the meeting. Instead, they had a good chat.

After discussing all the difficult points in Poincaré's conjecture, Lester no longer had any doubts. He couldn't help but say,""Lin, I have to say that your thesis was too perfect. It was so perfect that the review team couldn't find a single mistake. However, you have to be careful in the report next month. Professor Charles has prepared nineteen questions to challenge you.”

The Princeton Institute of Mathematics was where Lin Yi had spent four years.

From the age of 16 until the age of 20, he returned to the country.

Most of his achievements were done at the Princeton Institute of Mathematics.

Therefore, the last thing he was afraid of was giving a speech at Princeton University because that was his home ground!

Lin Yi raised his eyebrows and was slightly interested.

"That's even better. It's been a long time since I've accepted a challenge.”
