Wilson smiled slowly. He had emphasized the words ‘my country’. ‘It doesn’t matter if you win the competition. What’s there to show off?’
BIO Journal belonged to his country. The editor-in-chief was from his country. That was enough to erase today’s results and put all their previous efforts to shame.
How could the students present not see what Wilson was planning? All of them gritted their teeth and looked at Wilson with indignation. Wily old fox!
Only Xue Xue was staring blankly at the person wearing a baseball cap walking up the stage!
This was her target!
To be able to publish papers on BIO was the dream of many. Now that she could finally meet the person who could provide the most convenience to her, how could she not be happy?
She had to make an appointment with Mr. Wilson later. At the same time, she could also make an appointment with Editor Austin and have a good chat with him!
This was a rare opportunity.
Chancellor Liao realized what Wilson was going to do, but this time, he did not panic at all. He even wanted to laugh secretly. This was a big score that Wilson was giving him!
Chancellor Liao stepped forward and shook hands warmly with Austin, who did not refuse him. In fact, he was quite polite.
Wilson was puzzled. After Teacher Ji Qingming plagiarized students’ work and caused such a scandal, shouldn’t Austin hate this university? Moreover, Ji Qingming’s actions had tainted BIO’s reputation, no?
Austin, who could distinguish right from wrong, actually shook Chancellor Liao’s hand? The two of them did not show any signs of falling out.
Although Wilson was confused, he couldn’t figure out what was wrong, so he was prepared to follow the original plan!
Wilson took a step forward. He was still smiling when Austin ignored him and walked past him.
With so many eyes on the scene, Wilson’s face turned paler than flour.
Austin walked up to Sheng Yang. Xue Xue was standing on the other side of Sheng Yang. She was so nervous that she couldn’t even breathe properly. So, Austin was here to watch the competition and pick a student?
Could she be the chosen one, then?
Jin Lu was the closest to Sheng Yang. He felt that the light in Austin’s eyes was especially strong, but he couldn’t figure it out.
Fortunately, it didn’t take long before Austin slowly explained the situation, “Everyone, I’m here to see Sheng Yang.”
Despite his nationality, he thought that science and talent had no borders. He admired anyone who was outstanding, let alone Sheng Yang, who was too outstanding. He had been the editor-in-chief for a long time, but he had never seen anyone with a brighter future than her. Moreover, she was so young. He truly couldn’t find any flaws in her.
The audience looked at each other. They were so full of confusion that it seemed to overflow.
The well-known editor-in-chief of the world’s number one scientific journal had traveled thousands of miles to see an unknown student on the other side of the globe?
Sheng Yang could actually tell that Austin was trying to clear her name. She didn’t like Wilson stealing the limelight, but she still had a headache because she didn’t like superficial matters like this. She might have more trouble in the future. Unfortunately, Austin had already made up his mind. His eyes were extremely firm. As the Chinese saying went, ‘The emperor is not anxious but the eunuch is.’
“It must seem strange to you all. Listen to me and you’ll understand.”
