Chapter 1211: Meet Again
Jiang Mingyue tightened her grip on the books in her arms and unknowingly scratched them with her fingernails. She stood where she was without saying a word.
Mu Qing did not know about Huo Yao’s conflict with Jiang Mingyue. He simply turned to look at Jiang Mingyue and said, “The principal told us to help take care of her, but I was busy working on my research project and did not have time to chat with her much. Since you are in the same faculty as her, I am sure you are much closer.”
When Jiang Mingyue looked into Mu Qing’s eyes, she nearly lost it. She pursed her lips and said, “We do not talk much. Even though we are in the same faculty, we hardly run into each other.”
Mu Qing nodded. “Makes sense. Oh yes. Did you check out the school forum?”
Jiang Mingyue felt annoyed, but she did her utmost to sound calm. She said softly, “Nope. What about it?”
Ever since she was publicly embarrassed by Huo Yao, she threw all her time into studying and did not even dare to look at the forum. She had stolen Huo Yao’s research and was terrified that she might see a post about it appearing online.
“The institute wants to use one of the Bioinformatics division’s research projects. You should take a look at the forum yourself,” replied Mu Qing.
He did not usually pay attention to the school forum. He had been paying attention to Huo Yao for some other reasons.
Jiang Mingyue noticed that Mu Qing was very impressed by Huo Yao and could not help feeling annoyed inside. She nodded her head patronizingly and replied. “Okay. Why don’t you go say hi to her? I won’t be going over. I have a test this afternoon, so I need to focus on revising.”
She patted the books in her arms as she spoke.
Mu Qing glanced at her and did not insist. “Uh huh. Let me just go over and say hello.”
“Sure thing.” Jiang Mingyue walked over to an empty seat and sat down.
Mu Qing looked in Huo Yao’s direction with his eyes narrowed briefly before he quickly walked over.
...
Yuan Xi was playing with her phone. The moment she raised her head, she saw a legendary young man walking over. She could not help tightening her grip on the phone as she elbowed Huo Yao excitedly.
Huo Yao looked sideways at Yuan Xi when she nudged her. She noticed the excitement on her face and looked in the same direction as Yuan Xi.
Mu Qing was already nearby. He stopped in front of Huo Yao and took a seat. He smiled genially at Yuan Xi and Huo Yao. He looked at Huo Yao and nodded. “Hi, Huo Yao.”
“Hi, Mu Qing.” Huo Yao nodded politely. She casually placed her arm on the book to block its contents.
Mu Qing paid no attention to this minor detail. He simply chatted in a casual tone. “Congratulations. I hear that the institute wants to work with your division. You should be proud of yourself.”
Huo Yao pursed her lips. She replied unhurriedly. “It was pure luck.”
Mu Qing smiled. “You are being modest. I know your Math is good. I am sure hardly anyone in school is as good as you.”
He recalled the comments which Yuan Huan had for Huo Yao. Her brain was on a whole different level than ordinary people, so even Yuan Huan could not tell exactly how much she could accomplish.
Huo Yao simply smiled gently.
Mu Qing could tell that Huo Yao was not much of a talker. After chatting briefly, he left her in peace. When he stood up, he noticed the book Huo Yao was reading.
Although she had covered most of its contents, he could tell what the book was about just by looking at the professional language.
He asked her curiously. “Are you reading a Physics book?”
