1597 No Big Deal To Be Rich
Wu Yue led Huo Yao out the moment he finished his sentence.
Before long, the teacher from the Math department came over with his students.
The Math department teacher glanced at Wu Yue before looking at the hotel lobby and remarked in disbelief. “Your department is such a big spender.”
The Math department teacher felt that their hotel was pretty decent, but this place was even more luxurious and no expense was spared.
Wu Yue had been waiting for this moment all night. He beamed brightly as he waved his hand. “Our student took care of it. We didn’t spend a dime.”
The Math department teacher found Wu Yue’s smile jarring and pondered as he tutted to himself. It was no big deal to be rich.
Huo Yao failed to detect the competitive undercurrent between the teachers. When she looked past the Math department teacher, she paused briefly looking at Ji Ya.
Ji Ya did not expect to see Huo Yao here either. After all, in terms of experience, Huo Yao was only a first-year university student. It was impossible for her to attend an academic conference of this level.
Then again, Huo Yao was Prof Rong’s student, so perhaps experience did not matter.
After her brief shock, Ji Ya smiled and nodded to Huo Yao. Ji Ya’s face was exquisitely done and she had the grace and aura of a young lady from a powerful family. “Hi, Huo Yao.”
Huo Yao nodded politely. “Hi.”
The Math department teacher saw them greeting each other and said in surprise, “Ya, do you know each other?”
Ji Ya acknowledged and said, “When I was at the Physics department, Prof Rong introduced us. Also, she’s Prof Rong’s disciple.”
The moment she finished her sentence, the Math teacher and the students around her were stunned.
No one had heard about Prof Rong accepting students.
No one had heard about it and they also found the girl very unfamiliar.
If a professor accepted any disciples, they were generally very good in their fields. It made no sense for Huo Yao to be unknown to them.
As the Math students pondered to themselves quizzically, Wu Yue stepped forward. “Don’t stand at the door. Come on in first. We have plenty of time to get to know each other later.”
Everyone veered their eyes and got distracted by the interruption.
Before long, they entered the lobby.
Li Chenhui and the others had woken up to welcome the students from the Math department while they took them upstairs.
Over ten of them squeezed into the lift instantly making the space tight, but it did not stop them from chatting.
When they got to the top floor and opened the door to their suite, Li Chenhui saw the shock on the Math department students’ faces and promptly felt gratified.
He was right. Every now and then, it was okay to show off and brag a bit.
Huo Yao’s lips twitched as she sat on the couch and looked sideways at Li Chenhui. He was no longer yawning and looked very energetic.
She was planning to give them pills to help them acclimate to the new country. From the looks of it, they did not need the meds anymore.
After chatting briefly, they got straight to work.
Prof Rong had only told Huo Yao to look at the questions and did not have a chance to discuss anything with her senior brothers. She was just here to tag along with them at best.
When they held the discussion, she simply sat there quietly and listened the entire time.
However, it felt boring to her.
Huo Yao walked up to the balcony. The presidential suite was expensive since it was the most comfortable and luxurious room with the best view. From the balcony, she could have one of the best views of the city.
She could even smell money in the air.
Huo Yao tutted inwardly. Her uncle was certainly an indecently wealthy man.
