ong Jun suddenly smiled and shook his head. Even though he was a professor, his student had already identified the crux of the problem so matter of factly. He parted his lips wanting to speak.

But Huo Yao had already beaten him to it. “Teacher, don’t ask me to join such research teams. I don’t have the experience and I am not a researcher.”

‘ong Jun glanced at Huo Yao. “You certainly read my mind.”

Huo Yao smiled sheepishly before changing the subject. “If there are any research projects involving huge sums of cash rewards, feel free to contact me.”

“Cash rewards?” The moment Rong Jun heard this, he felt puzzled. “Are cash rewards more important than good opportunities?”

Huo Yao crossed her legs and said softly, “Good opportunities exist all the time, but not cash rewards.”

ong Jun replied sternly. “What nonsense is this? Are you that broke?”

Huo Yao was such an intelligent girl. How could she be so blinded by money?

“Uh huh. A little.” Huo Yao nodded.

Huo Yao was Rong Jun’s student, so he could not stand by and let her go hungry. He pulled out his phone and spoke while preparing to transfer some money to her. “I will give you some money to help tide you over.”

Huo Yao’s phone chimed in the background when she received the bank notification, leaving her in shock.

She simply said she wanted to make more money. Did she mention anything about being completely tapped out?

After Rong Jun was done transferring her the money, he sent her phone number to some other students: [Huo Yao is your junior sister. Say hi to her. Remember to give her a red packet and don’t be cheap about it. She

doesn’t come from a well-to-do family.]

After sending a text message to the group chat, Rong Jun put his phone away and looked at Huo Yao. “I have sent your number to your senior brothers. They will probably introduce themselves soon, so just look out for

their messages.”

Huo Yao’s face twitched. Something seemed amiss to her about how things were developing. Why would she suddenly have senior brothers?

Rong Jun picked up the documents on the coffee table, walked back to his desk, and waved his hand. “Enough. You may leave. Remember to read those books I gave you.”

Huo Yao went quiet.

Before long, she left Rong Jun’s office. Huo Yao took out her phone while she was waiting for the lift. She raised her hand and rubbed her forehead when she turned on her phone and saw the $10 000 Prof Rong had just

sent her.

When the lift reached the floor, it chimed and the doors opened. Huo Yao sighed about how poor she was without accepting the money from Rong Jun. She simply placed her phone back in her pocket and went into

the lift.

Huo Yao encountered Ji Ya when she got to the school entrance. Ji Ya happened to be on the phone.

Huo Yao raised her brow when she noticed how familiar the scene was. Huo Yao recalled the time she encountered Ji Ya when she was eating at a restaurant.

After Ji Ya hung up on the phone, she noticed Huo Yao at the school entrance as well. Ji Ya nodded lightly and acknowledged her. “Hi there.”

“Hi,” greeted Huo Yao.

Ji Ya put away her phone and glanced at the road before she said warmly, “Where are you heading? Do you need a ride?”

Ji Ya’s family driver was already waiting by the roadside

“Thank you for the offer. It’s fine. Someone is picking me up anyway.” Huo Yao pointed at the car by the roadside and turned down the offer tactfully.

Ji Ya nodded. Since she had to go to the hospital, she did not continue chatting. “Sure. See you around then.”

Huo Yao acknowledged politely.

Huo Yao headed towards the car by the roadside. Chen Ming had been driving her around recently and always picked her up in a normal car.

After Ji Ya got into the car, Zhu did not drive off for some time. She automatically raised her head and glanced at him. “Uncle Zhu, what are you looking at?”.
