Chapter 1201: A Patent
Huo Yao was wondering if she had made a mistake this time when she heard Dai Jie talking to her. Two seconds later, she raised her head. “No, they will definitely accept the project.”
Qi Hui had no reason to talk about this.
Perhaps she was mistaken and the institution had no intention of stealing their work.
Huo Yao paused briefly. Something suddenly struck her. She looked at Liu Qian and asked. “Oh yes. Liu, what are the conditions to apply for patents?”
Liu Qian was accustomed to Huo Yao casually calling him ‘Liu’ every now and then. He quickly replied. “I thought about it as well. I planned on applying for a patent once the institute approves our project.”
Huo Yao raised her brow. Liu Qian was not bad at all. He was undoubtedly a prudent person.
“Can we apply for a patent?” asked Wang Jing in astonishment. Since she was quite young, she did not know that it could be done.
“Yes, we can.” Liu Qian briefly explained the patent application procedure to Wang Jing. “Since we are at the early stages, we do not meet the condition for patent application yet. If the system is incomplete, we can’t get the patent. We will do it in time.”
Huo Yao did not harp on the subject since Liu Qian was going to apply for the patent anyway.

Wei Yong wanted to get back and work on the research project. After chatting with Mr. Jin briefly, he took the experiment plan and quickly went back to the laboratory. He told his assistant to walk them out of the National Research Institute of Science and Technology.
Huo Yao and the others went over to the parking lot. Before they got into the car, a large MPV drove into the institution and pulled up in the nearby parking lot.
The moment Wei Yong’s assistant looked up and saw the vehicle, a serious look emerged on his face. He said quietly, “That is our president’s car.”
Mr. Jin and Qi Hui promptly veered their eyes when they heard it was the president’s car. They glanced at Huo Yao and the others, gesturing for them to stop staring.
They were no longer in Tsing University. The people sitting in the car were probably big names in the academic field, so it was rude to stare.
Three people got off the vehicle one after another. Although they were some distance away, they gave off a powerful confident aura.
Dai Jie and the others lowered their heads respectfully without staring.
Huo Yao was not interested in the president of the institution. Since everyone was so nervous, she tilted her head slightly and took a glance.
After taking a swift glance, she quickly veered her eyes. She bowed her head even lower than her seniors.
Sure enough, curiosity killed the cat.
The president of the National Research Institute of Science and Technology was President Xue. When he caught Rong Jun looking elsewhere, he automatically looked in the same direction. He realized Rong Jun was looking at some people in the parking lot whom he had never seen before. Among them were some youngsters. He asked. “Know someone?”
Rong Jun paused briefly. A few seconds later, he veered his eyes and smiled. “They are from our school.”
President Xue asked curiously. “Are we working with your university?”
Rong Jun was not entirely sure himself. “Maybe.”
President Xue nodded and stopped harping on the subject. “Let’s go to my office first.”
Rong Jun acknowledged softly. He looked in Huo Yao’s direction once more before leaving with President Xue.
After those men gradually went far, Wei Yong’s assistant finally said, “I have to get back. I have notified the security guards to expect you. Just drive out.”
He nodded and quickly left once he was done talking.
