Chapter 893: Only Cared About Money
Liu Qian frowned slightly when he heard what Mr. Qi said. He replied calmly. “What’s wrong with bringing a freshman along?”
Qi Hui did not want to talk about something irrelevant. He contemplated for a few seconds before he said with a serious look on his face, “Did Jiang Mingyue use all three plans? Did all three of them fail?”
“That’s right. We did not even manage to achieve the minimum 60% for the comparative testing. There is clearly something wrong with the molecular equation,” said Liu Qian straightforwardly since they were talking about work.
Sometimes, the thesis might be solid, but it was meaningless if it could not stand up to repeated testing.
Qi Hui frowned. “How is that possible? I have seen her molecular equation and every step looks right.”
“I don’t know either. Those were the results I got from conducting comparative tests.” Liu Qian looked at him mildly.
Qi Hui glanced at Liu Qian again. He was clearly insinuating that Liu Qian did not do his job.
Liu Qian pursed his lips and said, “Don’t bother looking at me that way. I am not dumb enough to slack off while working on a student’s experiment.”
Qi Hui instantly looked uneasy. He cleared his throat before he pressed the lift b.u.t.ton. “Fine. I have to go to the laboratory to get some stuff. See you.”
Liu Qian acknowledged him mildly. After Qi Hui entered the lift, Liu Qian turned to look at him. “Oh yes. Mr. Qi, when will we be getting back the funds you loaned from us previously?”
Qi Hui was about to press the lift b.u.t.ton, but his finger froze. He raised his head and looked annoyed. “It’s not like your division has any decent research to speak of. Don’t you feel embarra.s.sed about hogging the funds?”
Liu Qian tightened his fists and said solemnly, “Even if we do not have any research, the funds belong to our division.”
Qi Hui scoffed and said, “I don’t want to argue with you about it. If you have a problem, you can always tell Prof Liu about it.”
The moment he finished his sentence, he closed the lift door.
What the h.e.l.l? Bioinformatics did not make the slightest contribution, but he kept asking for funds.
Liu Qian watched as the lift door closed. After some time, he finally left with a heavy heart.

After Huo Yao left the laboratory block, she did not go back to the department. Instead, she went straight over to the school entrance on the East side of the campus.
Meanwhile, a low-profile black car had pulled up by Tsing University’s entrance. A man was standing beside the car with his eyes on the gate.
The moment he caught sight of Huo Yao, he took out his phone and called her before raising his hand to wave at her.
Huo Yao walked over to him.
“Hi, Miss Huo,” greeted Lin Shuwen as he smiled when she came closer. His gaze towards her was reverent.
Huo Yao was a genius physician. She had guaranteed placement at Tsing University. Now, she had become the top scholar in the national college entrance exam. Also, she was close to Min Yu. She was undoubtedly an impressive girl.
Huo Yao looked at Lin Shuwen and nodded politely. “My bad. I was in cla.s.s. Sorry to keep you waiting.”
Lin Shuwen opened the back seat door as he hurriedly said, “Don’t worry about it. I wasn’t busy anyway. I don’t mind waiting.”
Huo Yao acknowledged before taking a seat.
After Lin Shuwen closed the car door, he walked around the car and got into the driver’s seat. He looked into the rearview mirror and contemplated before he decided to explain. “It is inconvenient for Mr. Fang to show up in public, so he sent me to pick you up.”
Huo Yao raised her brow slightly. She thought about Fang Chen’s ident.i.ty and nodded in agreement. “Got it.”
