1577 Same Group Of People
Rong Jun was astonished by Li Chenhui’s response. “She’s not the sort to be interested in Sirin University.”
Li Chenhui touched his nose. “Does it matter? Anyways, she’s going.”
Rong Jun nodded and dropped the subject. Just as he was about to leave, he happened to see the journal in Wen Ping’s arms. “Is that SCI?”
Wen Ping lowered his head to glance at it before he nodded. “Uh huh. Junior Sister lent it to me. It’s the latest issue.”
“Is that the latest issue?” When Rong Jun found out it was the latest issue, he took an interest and did not leave right away. “Let me take a look at it.”
Wen Ping handed it over to Rong Jun reluctantly. After some time, he added. “She promised to lend it to me for a few days.”
Li Chenhui blinked as he pondered. He did not recall Huo Yao mentioning a deadline.
Rong Jun glared at Wen Ping before he proceeded to open the journal. When he glanced at the first article and saw the author’s name, he was dumbstruck.
Did his youngest disciple write it?
When Wen Ping noticed something amiss with Rong Jun, he could not help asking. “Prof Rong?”
Rong Jun snapped out of his astonishment and promptly had a sour taste in his mouth. He shoved the journal back at Wen Ping and said, “The two of you have a lot to learn from her!”
The moment he finished his sentence, he turned to walk out of the laboratory on a huff.
Wen Ping stood where he was with his cheek twitching. “Do you think there was something strange with his tone?”
“I agree.” Li Chenhui clearly heard Prof Rong telling them to learn from Huo Yao, but he did not get it.
Wen Ping lowered his head and looked at the journal in his hands.
Rong Jun flipped the issue to the first page and it was still open. After glancing at the page, Wen Ping could not help staring at it.
The latest issue of SCI was usually not readily available locally, but Huo Yao was able to get her hands on it. Wen Ping finally figured out why she had access to a copy.
Li Chenhui glanced at Wen Ping and looked down at the issue as well.
Moments later, Li Chenhui cursed inwardly.
The girl was good.

Min Yu came over to the campus to pick up Huo Yao punctually.
“Did you encounter any problems at school today?” asked Min Yu as he opened the car door for Huo Yao.
Huo Yao leaned against the car door casually. After all, he had sent her a red packet to console her earlier, so she looked completely normal now. “Nope. Since I’m a girl, the most special time of the month is when I get my period, right?”
The moment she finished her sentence, she shrugged and bent over to get into the car.
Min Yu’s lips twitched.
Before long, the car left the campus.
Huo Yao played with her phone after getting into the car. Every now and then, she raised her head and looked out of the car window.
A car was tailing her.
The exact same thing happened yesterday.
Huo Yao narrowed her eyes and stopped playing with her phone.
Min Yu also detected someone following them a long while ago. To be precise, he spotted the tail from the moment they left the campus.
He raised his head and glanced into the rearview mirror. Huo Yao was also looking at the side mirror. This meant she had also discovered the tail on them.
Min Yu stepped on the gas and sped up. He put the car on autopilot, took his phone from the side, and tapped on WeChat to send Zhuo Yun a text message.
“They are here for me,” said Huo Yao mildly before she veered her eyes.
Min Yu’s hands paused briefly. “How did you know?”
Huo Yao leaned against the car seat lazily and said candidly, “I ran into some people yesterday as well.”
