Huo Yao raised her brow. It was better if he wasn’t in school. She preferred coming over when he was not around. She cleared her throat and simply answered. “It’s nothing urgent. I just came over to submit my homework. Since I have finished it, I wanted to hand it in.”
Wu Yue knew about the study plan Prof Rong had tailor-made for Huo Yao, so he said, “You can hand it over to me. I will give it to Prof Rong when he gets back.”
“Uh huh. Thank you, Mr. Wu.” Huo Yao retrieved a book from her bag and handed the paper which she had worked on previously to Wu Yue.
Wu Yue glanced at the cover of Huo Yao’s Biocomputing textbook and could not help feeling sad.
She was such a good Physics student!
Wu Yue sighed. He told Huo Yao to take a seat before he lowered his head and looked at the papers containing her solutions.
Wu Yue thought it simply contained normal first year questions, but the moment he saw her work, he raised his head in shock. “Did Prof Rong tell you to do this?”
Huo Yao noticed the surprise on Wu Yue’s face. She paused for a second before nodding. She said, “Is there a problem?”
Wu Yue’s face twitched. “Well, it isn’t considered a problem.”
Never mind. Wu Yue cleared his throat as he pondered. He quietly lowered his head and looked at her solution.
She had submitted three sheets of paper. Wu Yue spent a good ten minutes before he finished reading the contents of the papers. After he was done, he went into a daze before he turned to look at Huo Yao. “How long did you spend working on these Quantum Mechanics equations?”
Physics was the hardest Science subject and was a very wide field. Also, it demanded good Mathematics skills. Even the teachers needed a week or two to solve a question, let alone a student. However, even a teacher might not be able to solve them as well as she had done.
Huo Yao put the Biocomputing text back into her backpack and nonchalantly answered. “I just spent two periods this morning doing them.”
Wu Yue went speechless.
Just?
This meant she merely did it in her free time during the two periods.
Huo Yao zipped her bag. She raised her head and caught the complicated expression on his face. “Yes, Mr. Wu?”
Wu Yue inhaled deeply. He had an inkling why Prof Rong was letting a student work on third and fourth year level questions. She was simply a genius.
A thought crossed Wu Yue’s mind. He checked the time before he asked Huo Yao. “Do you have any classes in the afternoon?”
Huo Yao promptly said, “Yes! I have three more periods to go! I have no time at all!”
Wu Yue went speechless.
But then he pretended not to hear it. He turned to walk over to his desk and retrieved a sealed envelope and took something out before coming back.
Huo Yao looked at the sealed envelope and an ominous feeling surged in her heart. Before Wu Yue could speak, she stood up and cleared her throat. “Mr. Wu, I think I should get back to class now.”
If she did not go now, there was no chance for her to escape.
Wu Yue was about to open the sealed envelope when his hand froze. “Hang on.”
Huo Yao’s face twitched. “Mr. Wu, I am just a freshman without any qualifications.”
The sealed envelope probably contained some important research, and she was unable to spend so much time on Physics right now.
Wu Yue froze when he heard what Huo Yao said. For a moment, he did not know whether to continue taking the file out. However, he would feel awful if he did not show it to her.
