1630 Who’s Your Professor?
Huo Yao raised her head and looked around halfway. She walked up to the teacher showing them the way and asked. “Is this the way to the administrative block?”
Wu Yue was not very familiar with Sirin University. He glanced at Huo Yao and gestured at her, trying to find out why she was asking this.
Huo Yao kept her eyes on the teacher at the lead, so she did not answer Wu Yue right away.
The teacher at the lead was Qiao En’s assistant. He turned slightly and smiled politely without explaining in detail. “The university administrative office isn’t here. We’re going straight to the faculty administrative office. Our professor will meet you personally.”
“Your professor?” Huo Yao caught onto something. “Who’s your professor?”
“It’s Prof Qiao En.” When Qiao En’s assistant brought up Qiao En, he looked proud.
When Huo Yao heard Qiao En’s name, she was unsurprised.
Lu Xia wanted to bring Huo Yao to Qiao En yesterday. Unfortunately, Lu Xia made a miscalculation and the drugs did not work on Huo Yao.
“Isn’t the school giving us an explanation? Why are you taking us to Prof Qiao?” Wu Yue knew about Qiao En, so he looked very surprised.
“You see, Lu Xia is Prof Qiao’s student.” Qiao En’s assistant explained.
If Qiao En personally took care of the matter since Lu Xia was his student, it would not cause any suspicion. Also, it would make people feel they were regarded with respect and treating the matter seriously.
Huo Yao glanced at Qiao En’s assistant mildly.
The assistant continued walking without speaking further.
As they followed behind the teacher, Wu Yue softly told Huo Yao about Prof Qiao.
Wu Yue’s tone was filled with great admiration for the man.
Despite his excitement, Huo Yao was very calm. Every now and then, she acknowledged him. “Uh huh.”
Wu Yue’s lips twitched after hearing her lackluster response a few times. Initially, he was very excited about meeting Qiao En in person soon. However, his excitement watered down a lot soon after.
“Why do I have a feeling you’re not interested in Prof Qiao at all? Whatever it is, he’s renowned in the trade,” asked Wu Yue.
Huo Yao raised her brow. “My teacher is also very famous in the academic world.”
Since they were both highly respected in the academic world, there was no reason for her to be impressed.
Wu Yue promptly slumped into silence.
Even though Huo Yao was harsh, Wu Yue had to say she made sense and he could not argue with her.
Wu Yue touched his nose. The final remnants of the excitement in his heart disappeared completely.
Before long, the two of them followed Qiao En’s assistant to the faculty administrative office.
Qiao En came downstairs from the laboratory. A couple of minutes after Wu Yue and Huo Yao got there, Qiao En entered the office.
Wu Yue looked particularly calm as he nodded to Qiao En. He looked as though he was seeing a normal teacher. “Nice to meet you, Prof Qiao.”
Qiao En glanced at Wu Yue. Even though Wu Yue’s attitude was quite different from normal, he did not take it to heart. He simply nodded calmly and turned to look at Huo Yao.
The young woman was beautiful. Even though she was just standing there, she looked dignified and extraordinary.
A look of surprise swept through Qiao En’s eyes. He paused before raising his hand to point at the couch. “Please take a seat.”
Wu Yue nodded. He gestured for Huo Yao to relax and sat on the couch.
Qiao En did not take a seat. Instead, he went over to the water dispenser and got two glasses of water unhurriedly.
