Huo Yao glanced briefly before looking away. When she walked past the man, the man’s hands wobbled slightly and the cartons on top slid down onto Huo Yao.
Huo Yao instinctively extended her hands and caught the boxes.
The man realized that the cartons had nearly fallen onto some passerby, so he quickly turned around and apologized in an anxious tone. “My bad. I didn’t see you there. Are you okay?”
“I’m fine.” Huo Yao shook her head and placed the cartons in his hands.
“Thanks. I appreciate it,” said the man.
Huo Yao replied. “You’re welcome.”
Li Chenhui entered the lift carrying the boxes. Since his hands were full, he was unable to take out his access card and swipe it.
When Huo Yao noticed it, she turned back to help. She took out her access pass, swiped it on the lift, and asked. “Which floor?”
Li Chenhui replied hurriedly. “The fifth, please.”
He promptly recalled that not all students had access to the fifth floor. Since he clearly did not recognize this pretty young woman, he said quickly, “You can use my access pass. It’s right here in my pocket.”
Just as he was about to tell her to swipe his card, Huo Yao answered. “It’s okay.”
The moment she finished her sentence, she walked out of the lift before it closed.
After the lift doors had closed, Li Chenhui looked sideways at them before checking the lift button panel. Sure enough, she had pressed the fifth floor for him. He was instantly puzzled.
Before long, the lift arrived on the fifth floor. Li Chenhui carried the boxes out quizzically.
He carried the boxes straight into Wu Yue’s office and set them down.
Just as he was about to speak, Wu Yue asked. “Oh yes. Chenhui, did you run into your little junior sister?”
“What little junior sister?” Li Chenhui finally recalled that his teacher had just accepted a new disciple. His teacher even gave him his little junior sister’s phone number.
This meant the pretty girl he had just encountered at the lift must have been his little junior sister.
“I think I did… now that you mention it, but I’m not entirely sure if it was her.” Li Chenhui scratched his head and felt annoyed at himself for not chatting a little more with his little junior sister.
He had heard that she was brilliant.
“You won’t believe what your teacher made your little junior sister read, okay?” Wu Yue raised his head and glanced at Li Chenhui with a mysterious look as he opened the boxes.
Li Chenhui failed to notice the books in Huo Yao’s hands earlier. “What book is it?”
“Magnetics MT Physics Collection.”
“Isn’t that a PhD level book?” asked Li Chenhui in surprise.
Wu Yue nodded. “It’s a very rare book. Your teacher clearly thinks highly of her.”
Li Chenhui went into deep thought upon hearing this.
Wu Yue raised his hand and patted Li Chenhui on the shoulder. “You don’t have to feel envious. She’s really very smart.”
Li Chenhui went speechless.
He suddenly felt terribly insulted.

When Huo Yao walked out of the school gates, she looked up and saw a black car pulled up by the roadside, so she walked over.
“I thought you were very busy lately,” asked Huo Yao as she put on her seatbelt.
Ever since their little encounter with Cheetah, Min Yu had disappeared for a few days before finally showing up today.
Min Yu did not start the engine immediately. Instead, he reached his hand out and held Huo Yao’s. “Has your term break started?”
