Chapter 828: She Found It Annoying To Even Look
Jiang Mingyue paid no attention to its contents but simply noticed how fast Huo Yao was reading the book.
Huo Yao took less than a minute to finish every page.
Jiang Mingyue found this hilarious.
How could anyone read at that pace? Even if she was pretending, she ought to know her place and slow down. She suspected that Huo Yao was probably not reading the contents of the book at all and was simply putting on a show.
To be honest, Jiang Mingyue despised pretentious people, so she shook her head before s.h.i.+fting her gaze.
She found it annoying to even look at Huo Yao.
She turned to say to the female freshman. “Mind trading seats with me?”
Since Huo Yao was sitting behind the table, Jiang Mingyue would be able to see Huo Yao the moment she raised her head. Jiang Mingyue was worried she would not be able to resist b.i.t.c.hing about Huo Yao, so she decided to trade seats with the female freshman.
The female freshman naturally had no objection. She nodded and stood up with her book without probing.
Jiang Mingyue quickly took her seat. Even though they did not make a lot of noise, the students sitting at the table behind them could detect them moving.
Jiang Mingyue looked back through the corner of her eye as she sat down and saw the girl reading with her eyes lowered. Huo Yao was so immersed in the book that she paid no attention to her surroundings. Jiang Mingyue shook her head in disdain.
She was such a poser.
Jiang Mingyue retrieved a pen and paper from her bag as she flipped open the book. She disregarded her surroundings and focused on her research.
Her teacher had told her to write a thesis about Systems Biology.
If it was good, she could even submit it for a compet.i.tion.

Huo Yao only spent 30 minutes reading the entire book. After she closed the book, she stretched her arms lazily. She checked her watch and noticed there was still some time before her cla.s.s in the afternoon.
Huo Yao yawned and felt a little sleepy, so she placed the book beside her on top of her Physics study plan and lay p.r.o.ne on the table to rest.
Jiang Mingyue had been doing research for some time, but she needed that book, so she was making slow progress.
She leaned against her forehead and held her pen in her right hand and frowned as she chewed it. Before long, she put down her pen, straightened her body, and raised her head to glance at the Science and Engineering section in the library. She wanted to see if anyone had returned the book.
After some time, Jiang Mingyue stood up and walked up to the bookshelf again.
She hoped that the book was already returned to the shelf.
She checked on the shelf but it was still nowhere to be seen.
Jiang Mingyue squeezed her wrist as she came back disappointedly. On her way back, she happened to notice that Huo Yao had stopped reading. Also, Huo Yao was lying p.r.o.ne on the table sleeping. Jiang Mingyue promptly smiled in contempt.
She really needed to tell the teacher in charge of the library. The library was a place for students to study and not somewhere people could take naps.
It was so rude for Huo Yao to hog the table.
Jiang Mingyue veered her eyes and pulled out the chair. Just as she was about to take a seat, she suddenly raised her head. This time, she was not looking at Huo Yao. Instead, she was looking at the book beside her.
It was none other than the data a.n.a.lysis book that she had been searching for.
Jiang Mingyue did not expect Huo Yao to have the book. She looked at the book fixedly for some time before she sneered softly and finally lost her temper.
It was one thing if Huo Yao was simply sleeping in the library. How could Huo Yao not even return the book to the shelf? What if someone needed the book urgently?
