1622 Was Huo Yao A Daughter Of A Tycoon?
Wu Yue’s lips twitched. This was not really about her swimming skills.
He glared at Huo Yao angrily. “Don’t you know that good swimmers can still die by drowning?”
Huo Yao looked at Wu Yue sadly. “Mr. Wu, I didn’t know that was how you felt?”
She could not believe that he had been hoping she would die by drowning.
“Since you’re in the mood to joke, I’m sure you’ll do very well at the conference tomorrow.” Wu Yue glanced at Huo Yao.
Huo Yao rubbed her temples promptly. “Mr. Wu, I’m not feeling well. I’m really giddy now. You have no idea what I went through. The water in the lake was icy cold. I’m sure I’ve caught a cold.”
Wu Yue went speechless.
Li Chenhui and the others were dying from laughter, thanks to Huo Yao’s astounding performance.
Wu Yue did not see Huo Yao’s expression. He stood up and said, “Tomorrow morning at 8:30 am, we’ll gather punctually at the lobby.”
He walked out once he was done talking.
Students these days were so lazy. Even though they looked nice and obedient on the surface, it was all a façade!

The next day, Huo Yao and the others met up with the students from the Math department at the hotel entrance.
In comparison to the Physics students, the Math students including the teacher had dark circles underneath their eyes.
If they did not know better, they would assume the people from the Math department had gone partying hard last night.
“Are you done with your PowerPoint?” Wu Yue stared at the Math department teacher’s dark red eyes intently as he spoke.
The Math department teacher went speechless and could feel goosebumps on his body from Wu Yue’s staring.
Darn it. Couldn’t he talk normally? Did he have to stare?
He inhaled deeply and replied smugly. “That goes without saying! My students are the best!”
Wu Yue laughed patronizingly.
Were his students the best?
Did their team have a top scholar for the college entrance exams?
Did they have the champion of the International Quiz Contest?
Did they have a student with their paper published on the cover of SCI?
Wu Yue pursed his lips without talking to the Math department teacher. Instead, they went straight to Sirin University.

“Have you noticed a few cars following behind us?” Li Chenhui had noticed the cars for some time now.
They always walked to Sirin University. Each time he turned back, he could see cars driving slowly on the road, so he could not help feeling puzzled.
Wen Ping was not as observant. When he heard what Li Chenhui said, he turned to look at the road.
The moment he spotted a familiar car plate number, Wen Ping automatically shrank his head.
He promptly remembered the way someone had lifted him up like a chick and walked off yesterday.
Wen Ping paused and said, “Why don’t you ask Junior Sister?”
Li Chenhui glanced at him quizzically. “Why ask her?”
“That guy is a body guard working for her family.” Wen Ping felt it was unfair for him to be the only one to suffer the shock in silence. It was more fun to share such secrets.
“Bodyguards?” Li Chenhui touched his nose as he turned around to glance at Huo Yao and the car fleet consisting of seven to eight vehicles driving in one line.
It was quite the entourage.
Li Chenhui was stunned.
Usually, this could only be seen on television!
Perhaps Huo Yao was the daughter of some rich tycoon out to experience the life of a commoner. After she was done, she would go back to become a multi-billionaire heiress.
Li Chenhui was startled by the notion.
Huo Yao felt puzzled when she saw the strange expression on Li Chenhui’s face.
