Chapter 1117 What Did Yuan Huan Want?

Yuan Xi looked at Huo Yao from behind. She quickly recalled her attempt to distract Huo Yao by asking her to help fetch some sanitary pads from the dormitory.

She touched her nose and quickly followed behind Huo Yao.

After leaving the Biology department, Yuan Huan turned his head sideways and asked casually. “Do you know Huo Yao?”

He had noticed Mu Qing greeting Huo Yao earlier.

Mu Qing nodded. “I wouldn’t say we are close. I was invited by my middle school to give a speech for the final year students. Huo Yao was there to give a speech on behalf of the final year students, so I had the chance to meet her.”

Was that so?

Yuan Huan continued walking unhurriedly. A few minutes later, he said, “Huo Yao’s Math is very strong. I can’t believe you graduated from the same school. Since you are fellow alumni, you should hang out with her more.” Mu Qing glanced at Yuan Huan as he thought about what Yuan Huan said.

“How is your space research coming along?” Yuan Huan changed the subject. Mu Qing shook his head and smiled sadly. “Not much progress actually. After all, it is hard to prove theories related to reversing space.”

A profound look swept across Yuan Huan’s eyes. “Some things can’t be proven just with signs alone. Don’t worry. Just continue researching on it and let me know when you make any breakthrough.” He paused before he added. “You have to prove yourself if you want to get into the base.”

Mu Qing gritted his teeth and said, “Mr. Yuan, don’t worry. I will do my best to obtain core data.”

It was his dream to get into the base. He did not want to spend his life being some random researcher for the government.

“Uh huh. I trust you.” Yuan Huan smiled. He raised his hand and patted Mu Qing on the shoulder. “I will be staying in the capital for a while. I will be at the university most of the time, so feel free to reach out to me.”

“Okay, Mr. Yuan.” Mu Qing nodded.

After Huo Yao was done with her work in the laboratory, she left the school ahead of time.

When she got to the school entrance, she encountered Yuan Xi standing at the gate.

“Why are you still here?” asked Huo Yao as she straightened her backpack straps.

“I’m waiting for my older brother,” replied Yuan Xi miserably.

Huo Yao nodded and said, “I am sure he will be here anytime.”

“Uh huh.” Yuan Xi had an inkling of how her older brother ended up becoming a guidance teacher at the university. She raised her head and smiled at Huo Yao and responded. “You don’t have to wait with me.”

“Okay.”

Huo Yao had a headache, so she pressed her temples. She stopped talking to Yuan Xi and waved before heading towards the black car by the roadside.

She opened the front passenger seat door and got in.

Min Yu was talking on the phone but stopped the moment Huo Yao got into the car. After hanging up the phone, he turned to look at her and noticed that she seemed to be unwell, so he could not help frowning.

Last night, Huo Yao also sounded unhappy over the phone.

“Are you sick?” asked Min Yu as he reached his hand out and placed it on Huo Yao’s forehead.

It was completely normal, so she definitely did not have a fever.

Huo Yao leaned into the car seat. After Min Yu pulled his hand back, she explained. “I’m good. I just don’t feel great after smelling something.”

“Are you allergic to it?”
