Chapter 476: Can’t Reach Huo Yao’s Level
Huo Yao saw how hesitant Yi Lianfan looked and found it to be odd, so she asked him directly. “Speak up.”
Yi Lianfan leaned against the corridor railing quietly for an entire minute before he said succinctly, “Grandpa wants to take you in as his disciple.”
Huo Yao’s lips twitched. Had the old man not given up yet?
Yi Lianfan coughed gently. He spoke softly to the G.o.d-like prodigy. “Don’t feel pressurized. Just give it some thought.”
Huo Yao went quiet briefly before she replied. “Got it. I will talk to your grandfather about it.”
“Uh huh. I’m off. See you tonight,” said Yi Lianfan before he glanced at her and left.
Huo Yao walked back to the cla.s.sroom. Shortly after she sat down, her phone vibrated in her pocket, so she pulled it out.
It was a text message from Lei Xiao.
[Did you receive my message last night? Otherwise, I can send it again.]
Lei Xiao had waited all morning and afternoon but did not hear back from Huo Yao.
Hence, he copied his message to Huo Yao last night and resent it.
Huo Yao held her phone and replied quickly: [I have no suggestions.]
Lei Xiao: [...]
Lei Xiao: [I really need your help.]
Huo Yao lay p.r.o.ne on her desk with her eyes narrowed. She straightened her back and asked him: [Have you made the viral transport medium yet?]
Lei Xiao looked at the laboratory where he had been stuck in for almost 15 hours with a sad look before he replied: [Nope...]
However, he was too embarra.s.sed to say that he felt he would succeed soon.
Huo Yao just knew it. She contemplated for two seconds before she took out a piece of paper from her desk. It was filled with a list of procedures that she came up with last night.
She took a photo and sent it to Lei Xiao: [You can use this for reference. No promises that it’ll work.]
Lei Xiao tapped on the photo from Huo Yao and blew it up for a look. A look of shock quickly appeared on his face before it swiftly transformed into sheer joy. He was so happy that he did not even have the time to reply Huo Yao. Instead, he turned around and went to the staff lounge.
There was a printer in the staff lounge. Lei Xiao printed the photo. He retrieved a pen and some papers from the drawer and sat down to do the calculations.
Lei Xiao put down the pen 30 minutes later. His disheveled face was in a daze, but he finally managed to compose his thoughts after some time.
They had not been successful with the RO virus experiment for the past three years since it was really hard to synthesize its data.
His peers wanted to resort to extreme methods for research. But he disagreed with the approach and had reached out to Huo Yao for help.
Lei Xiao inhaled deeply. Sure enough, she was extraordinarily smart. Although she was young, her unimaginable talent was beyond him.
All it took was two days for her to figure out the parts that he had failed to comprehend. She was an indescribable genius.
Probably no one in the research inst.i.tute could reach Huo Yao’s level. Lei Xiao wiped his face. It was a bad idea to compare oneself to others. Things got scary the moment he compared himself to Huo Yao.
Lei Xiao composed himself before he quickly picked up the paper and entered the laboratory once more with no regard for his peers. He entered the pa.s.sword and entered the laboratory with force.
