Master Kingston gestured from the stage, signaling Alfredo Mitchell to bring Timmy up.
Of course, Kendrick Yacoub accompanied them, especially after Alfredo Mitchell’s recent remarks, fearing that he might use underhanded methods to harm Timmy.
Kendrick deliberately walked between Timmy and Alfredo, keeping them apart.
He had some understanding of Timmy’s temperament.
As long as you don’t cross the line, Timmy wouldn’t bother with trivial disputes.
So, Timmy held Kendrick’s hand like nothing had happened and went up to the stage, where Master Kingston introduced him to several other masters.
One of the masters asked him earnestly, “Timmy, your master tells us that you have a younger brother and sister who are just as intelligent as you. Have they found a teacher to follow?”
Timmy shook his head, “No, but my brother prefers economics, finance, and computer science, while my sister loves playing the piano and painting. They’re not interested in studying medicine.”
The masters were quite disappointed.
Master Kingston just wanted to show off, “See, I told you, a rare gem like this, and I found him!”
Then, under the envious gaze of several masters, he patted Timmy’s head.
“Timmy, if you have any questions about Professor Steve’s views, feel free to ask him directly.”
Timmy wasn’t shy and showed the parts he didn’t understand on his iPad to Professor Steve.
Professor Steve thought about the question for a moment before patiently bending down to explain it to Timmy.
Worried that Timmy might not be able to digest it all, he spoke slowly and asked after finishing the explanation.
“Timmy, did you understand?”
Timmy nodded, “Thank you, Professor, I understood.”
Professor Steve was somewhat surprised because even his current PhD students might not understand such a complex question at once.
It seemed that Master Kingston sensed his doubt, and he rubbed Timmy’s curly hair.
“Timmy, can you rephrase what Professor Steve just explained in your own words and your understanding?”
Alfredo Mitchell, who had just been ridiculed by Timmy and Kendrick in the audience, was still somewhat dazed and absent-minded.
He seemed oblivious to his master’s admiration for Timmy, just standing there woodenly.
Meanwhile, Walter Yonne saw clearly his master’s love and favoritism towards Timmy, and he only wished that Timmy would embarrass himself, shattering his master and other masters’ expectations and praises.
“Little brother, there’s no need to be afraid. We all know that you’ve only been studying medicine with your master for half a year. Even if your opinions may be immature, or even mistaken, we wouldn’t laugh at you.”
His words seemed to encourage Timmy.
But in fact, he was implying that Timmy’s views were immature and even erroneous.
Timmy nodded at him and replied obediently.
“Ricky, I know. People learn from their mistakes.”
Anyone who heard and saw this would think he was so well-behaved.
Only Alfredo Mitchell, who had been stung to the core by Timmy, knew that the seemingly cute and innocent-looking young master was actually a formidable force to be reckoned with.
Master Kingston was so pleased that he didn’t notice the hidden malice in his senior disciple’s words.
But Kendrick did.
However, he wasn’t in a hurry to intervene because he knew that Timmy wasn’t someone who could be easily bullied.
Moreover, despite Timmy being young, he knew very well when to speak up.
Like now, if the three brothers started arguing on stage, it would actually be embarrassing for their master, Master Kingston.
After politely responding to Ricky, Timmy expressed his understanding of the content to Professor Steve.
Professor Steve nodded continuously as he listened.
Because Timmy’s explanation was an extension of the content he had understood, making it even more comprehensive.
“Professor Kingston, this apprentice of yours is going to be incredible in the future!”
Professor Steve couldn’t help but give a thumbs-up to Master Kingston, who pretended to be humble.
“He’s still young. Although he has genetic advantages, who knows what will happen in the future?”
Professor Steve laughed, “Professor Kingston, you’re obviously showing off now. I’ve always wondered why, after so many years of not taking on apprentices, you suddenly took in a young boy like Timmy. But today, I understand everything.”
Walter originally thought he would see Timmy make a big fool of himself. However, not only did the boy not embarrass himself, but it seemed that he had gained Professor Steve’s appreciation by presenting a different understanding of the content?
Could it be that even Professor Steve needed to flatter the richest man in East Asia?
“Master, I don’t quite understand. It seems that there were a few places where Timmy misrepresented Professor Steve’s views?”
Professor Steve looked at him and smiled without saying a word.
Master Kingston, however, asked.
“Which parts do you believe were misrepresented?”
Walter proudly pointed out the problematic parts one by one. Professor Steve’s smile grew even more meaningful.
Master Kingston let out a long sigh and said to Professor Steve.
“Look, isn’t it worth coming out of retirement for this little guy?”
