Huo Yao raised her brow in surprise when she heard Jiang Mingyue’s voice.
It was such a small world.
Qi Hui finally raised his head. The stern look on his face instantly became genial when he saw his student. He stopped working and said, “Thanks for helping out.”
Jiang Mingyue stood with her back straight as she smiled and shook her head. “My pleasure.”
After Jiang Mingyue joined the Biology department, within two months, the department head picked her to be his disciple. Qi Hui would include her whenever research opportunities arose, so she was the most favored student in the entire faculty.
Even now, she was highly respected in the department for her talent.
Qi Hui was also very pleased with his disciple. Although Jiang Mingyue was not as good as Prof Zhao’s student, her performance and research ability were excellent.
“Once you are done, you can leave. Your experiment report is due. You can show it to me when you are done,” said Qi Hui as he smiled
“Mr. Qi, I have already finished the report. I will go back and bring it over.”
Qi Hui felt impressed. “Already?”
Jiang Mingyue looked confident. “Uh huh.”
The two of them chatted for a while until the Biology teacher cleared his throat softly and got back to his job. He waved the paperwork in his hand and said to Huo Yao softly, “Looks about right. Huo Yao, you may leave.”
Despite his soft tone, Jiang Mingyue heard what the teacher said. She casually raised her head and looked in Huo Yao’s direction. The moment she saw Huo Yao’s stunning profile, she was stunned.
Was she not the girl from No.1 Middle School?
What was she doing in the Biology department?
Huo Yao did not look at Jiang Mingyue. She simply nodded to the teacher before turning to leave the office.
Jiang Mingyue remained deep in thought even after Huo Yao had left. She only veered her eyes when Qi Hui called her. She looked at Mr. Qi and asked. “Mr. Qi, is she one of our freshmen?”
Qi Hui looked nonchalant as he said, “Uh huh. Do you know her?”
Jiang Mingyue went quiet before she said, “… It’s not that I know her. I saw her a couple of times when I went back to my alma mater to give a speech.”
Was that so? Qi Hui nodded without saying a word.
Jiang Mingyue felt curious, so she asked. “Did she do very well?”
Qi Hui had to admit that Huo Yao performed brilliantly in the national college entrance exam, but it was a pity that she was an Arts student.
Qi Hui shook his head sadly before he said, “Haven’t you been following the college entrance exam results?”
“Nope…” Jiang Mingyue cleared her throat and explained. “I was busy doing research with the seniors, so I didn’t pay attention to it.”
She was not alone. Most of the Biology students tended to be completely focused when they were doing research and paid no attention to anything else. After all, they were not in middle school, so it made no sense for them to keep an eye on the entrance exam results.
Qi Hui raised his brow. He did not tell Jiang Mingyue that Huo Yao was the top scholar. Instead, he said, “Why don’t you find out who the top scholar is?”
The moment he finished his sentence, he sat down and continued working.
Jiang Mingyue’s heart palpitated nervously. She took out her phone and checked the name of the top scholar for this year.
