1571 The Thesis

Shangguan Yun looked puzzled as he listened to the mechanical dial tone on the phone.

It was not Huo Yao’s style not to take things from him.

Shangguan Yun scratched his head. He pondered briefly before he pulled his suitcase from under the bed.

Shangguan Yun opened the zip to reveal lots of bottles. There were at least a dozen bottles. In the end, he forcibly picked three bottles of the least strong poison from the selection.

He placed them on the table, took a picture, and sent a picture to Huo Yao: [I only have these three bottles. If you want them, I can only give you two of them! *sad face emoticon*]

When Huo Yao heard her phone chime, she was standing on the balcony enjoying the night breeze. She paused for a second before tapping on her phone.

After reading the text message, Huo Yao smiled slightly. Even though she knew the stupid boy was probably lying, at least he did not completely lie about it.

[Keep them close at all times. When I need them, I’ll let you know.]

Shangguan Yun simply assumed that she was trying to be funny.

Since she demanded him to have them close at all times, she was probably afraid he would go back on his word!

Huo Yao put away her phone and turned to enter the room. After drying her hair, she did not sleep right away. Instead, she turned on her laptop on the desk.

The men on her tail today were very average at their job. They were clearly common criminals who were paid to do the task.

Their client was clearly not from overseas.

Meanwhile, somewhere abroad.

Lu Xia leaned against the wall as she slowly walked out of the laboratory. Her face and her lips were completely pale.

Lu Xia’s legs were trembling and she had no strength. She leaned against the wall for two minutes to rest. After the numbness passed, she finally felt better.

Qiao En walked out of the laboratory with a stack of printouts. When he saw Lu Xia resting against the wall, he said in an unusually gentle tone, “Why don’t you take a few days off and rest?”

Lu Xia looked at Qiao En without the slightest gratitude. After all, she knew this was all a fa?ade.

Everyone in this laboratory was abnormal.

Lu Xia nodded slightly without the slightest displeasure on her face. “Okay. Thanks, Prof Qiao.”

Qiao En wanted to read the report, so he acknowledged her and strode outside.

After taking a few steps, he recalled something and halted. He turned around and said to Lu Xia, “Oh yes. I forgot to tell you. The latest issue of SCI is out. My friend mailed me a copy. If you want to read it, you can get it from my assistant.”

Lu Xia’s eyes gleamed as she replied. “Got it.”

Publishing articles was a real milestone in the life of an academic. Also, SCI was an internationally renowned journal in the field, so it meant a lot for her paper to get accepted by them.

Lu Xia inhaled deeply. She had worked diligently all year. Now, she could finally prove herself!

Before long, she went over to see Prof Qiao’s assistant at his office.

Prof Qiao’s assistant had just received a text message from his boss, so he knew Lu Xia would swing by to get the journal.

He took the journal, handed it to her, and said happily, “Congrats! You have made Prof Qiao proud.”

Lu Xia did not look at the journal right away. Instead, she smiled humbly at the assistant. “You’re too kind. I have Prof Qiao to thank for his guidance.”

The assistant smiled and returned to work after chatting with her briefly.

Lu Xia veered her eyes and gradually lowered her head.

Qiao En had mentioned that her article was going to appear on the front page of the journal.
