Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Rong Jun said a few more things to Huo Yao. Since she had called him her teacher, she was considered to be his disciple. He promptly stood up. “Let me show you something good.”
He walked up to the bookshelf.
Huo Yao instantly had a bad feeling about this.
‘Wu Yue had found her a book to read 30 minutes ago while she was waiting for Rong Jun.
Huo Yao watched as Prof Rong walked up to the bookshelf. Huo Yao raised her hand and rubbed her forehead nervously. She wondered if it was too late to make a run for it.
Rong Jun retrieved three books from the bookshelf and turned back, touching the covers. He was clearly reluctant to give away the books, but he handed them to Huo Yao anyway. “These books are for you. Study them hard when you go back.”
Sure enough, Huo Yao was spot on. She went completely quiet.
What was with all these books today?
Huo Yao smiled as she took the books from him. “Thanks, Teacher.”
Rong Jun nodded happily and sat back down. “When you are free, I will introduce you to a couple of your seniors.”
Huo Yao’s temples throbbed on hearing this. He had already given her books out of the blue. What was this talk about meeting her seniors? She was completely puzzled.
It suddenly dawned on her that he had tricked her into calling him her master.
Huo Yao did not spend much time with Prof Rong in the Physics department since she had to see Li Fang. She left the department with a heavy heart holding four books.
On her way out, she felt deeply irritated by the amount of reading she had to do.

Lin Shuwen was already waiting at the school entrance. When he saw Huo Yao come out, he greeted her and noticed that she seemed miserable. He could not help asking. “Are you okay?”
Huo Yao raised her head and shook her head. “I am fin
Lin Shuwen did not continue probing since she did not want to talk about it. He paused and simply said, “In that case, I will send you to the Li residence.”
“Sure,” acknowledged Huo Yao. She followed Lin Shuwen to the roadside. Just as she was about to get to the car, she saw a black car nearby.
She instantly halted her steps and turned to Lin Shuwen. “One minute.”
Lin Shuwen had just opened the car door. When he heard what Huo Yao said, he raised his head and saw her quickly walking towards the black car parked nearby. He adjusted his spectacles.
Despite the distance, he could see the person sitting inside the car. It was none other than Min Yu.
Lin Shuwen was dumbstruck. He quickly averted his eyes and did not dare to look in Min Yu’s direction.
Huo Yao had already walked up to the black car. The car window opened even before she knocked and Min Yu’s face came to sight.
Huo Yao placed the books in her arms in the front pa.s.senger seat and asked. “I sent you a text message. Didn’t you see it?”
‘Min Yu picked up his phone and tapped on it before putting it down. “I missed it earlier.”
Huo Yao leaned against a car window and pointed in Lin Shuwen’s direction as she said, “I have somewhere to go. Why don’t you go back first?”
Min Yu glanced over through the mirror and looked at Lin Shuwen mildly. He veered his eyes and asked with an ambiguous smile on his face. “Are you going to make money?”
Huo Yao’s face twitched the moment she heard what he said and corrected him indignantly. “I am treating a patient!”
Humph!
Min Yu glanced at her and enquired. “When will you be done?”
Huo Yao pondered and said, “I am going now. I will probably be done in an hour and a half.”
