Chapter 953: Qi Hui Asks To See Huo Yao
“I have nothing against the subject. It is just a personal preference.” Huo Yao narrowed her eyes and interrupted him.
Zhao Lian’s research team was completely at a different level from university research. Moreover, she could not get herself involved in medical laboratory research.
The moment Zhao Lian heard what she said, disappointment swept through his eyes instantly.
However, he refused to give up and kept going. “You don’t have to decide right away. Why don’t you give it a bit more thought?”
Huo Yao acknowledged softly before she stood up. “In that case, I am going back.”
Zhao Lian glanced at her and sighed softly. He simply waved his hand without speaking any further.
Huo Yao nodded and left the office.
Shortly after she got back to the division, a student came over to inform her she was wanted at the administrative office.
She went back to the administration block.
When she got there, she was sent to the third floor to see Qi Hui.
Huo Yao frowned slightly when she heard it was Qi Hui who was asking to see her.
She quickly got to the third floor.
Other than Qi Hui, Jiang Mingyue and Liu Qian were also in his office.
After Huo Yao got to the door, she could hear someone speaking sarcastically in a questioning tone. She paused for a couple of seconds before she raised her hand and knocked on the door.
The moment there was a knock, Qi Hui stopped talking and raised his head to look at the door. His eyes became even colder when he saw it was Huo Yao. He quickly told her to enter.
Liu Qian glanced at Huo Yao. He looked particularly upset and even angry. He veered his eyes and looked at Qi Hui. “Mr. Qi, I told you. Neither I nor my student have touched your archives!”
Qi Hui ignored Liu Qian and looked at Huo Yao. “I have a question for you. Did Mr. Liu give you a set of research archives recently?”
“What research archives?” asked Huo Yao calmly in response to Qi Hui.
Jiang Mingyue raised her brow slightly and glanced at Huo Yao. Huo Yao certainly looked calm on the surface.
She shook her head before she averted her eyes.
“I was talking about this.” Qi Hui reached his hand out to pick up a manila envelope on his office table and held it in the air.
Huo Yao glanced at the envelope. “I don’t understand. What’s wrong?”
She did not look at the description on the manila envelope and simply assumed it was the same set of research archives that Liu Qian had shown her previously.
Qi Hui instantly slammed the envelope on the table and said sternly, “This is top-secret research. You are just a freshman. What business do you have secretly taking it off-campus?
The moment he finished his sentence, he turned to look at Liu Qian. “Mr. Liu, weren’t you saying that you did not touch my files? What do you have to say about her admission?”
Liu Qian pursed his lips angrily. “I did not give her this set of research archives. Mr. Qi, you are mistaken.”
Liu Qian recalled a teacher telling him that Qi Hui was asking around trying to find out who had touched his archives. He did not take it to heart at that time, but he unexpectedly ended up being accused along with Huo Yao.
“If this is not the set you took, then which one is it?” Qi Hui was so angry that he laughed. “If it wasn’t my research archives, why did you have to act so secretively when you encountered me at the lift?
