1574 Only Cared About Money

Qiao En tapped his fingers on the table gently. He pondered briefly and then suddenly said, “Oh yes. The academic conference will be starting soon. I think this is a great chance for you to meet more people. I’m sure it’ll be a real boon for your career.”

Lu Xia’s anger dissipated upon hearing this.

She knew about the academic conference. Since she had transferred to Sirin University for barely a year and had no major contributions, she was not good enough to attend the conference.

Lu Xia paused and said, “Thank you, Prof Qiao.”

“Uh huh. Good luck.” Qiao En waved at her.

Lu Xia stopped talking about the article and left.

After lunch on Monday, Liu Qian called Huo Yao to his office to see him.

“I want to show you something.” Liu Qian looked at her mysteriously. The moment he finished his sentence, he opened his desk drawer.

Huo Yao raised her brow. She observed his behavior and asked. “Do you have some money for me?”

Liu Qian had just picked up a journal, but he instantly went speechless.

She probably only cared about money.

Liu Qian took out the journal and handed it to Huo Yao. He said annoyingly, “The latest issue of SCI is out. I just received it, so I called you over to take a look at it.”

“I see.” Huo Yao promptly lost interest even as she took the journal from him.

“Your article has appeared on the cover of the issue. Do you know what this means?” Liu Qian stood leaning against the table. From the moment he received the issue, he was thrilled and even his voice trembled with excitement.

Huo Yao flipped through the journal. She pondered and replied. “Does this mean the department will give me a cash reward for this?”

Liu Qian parted his lips without saying a word for some time. He looked absolutely stumped after hearing this.

After some time, Liu Qian finally snapped out of his shock with his enthusiasm completely doused. “How could you be talking about money at a time like this?”

Huo Yao shut her mouth.

She had a feeling that the teacher might lose it if she continued talking.

Even though she had ruined the atmosphere, Liu Qian disregarded it and continued. “Your article was accepted and published in SCI. This means the subject and research were solid. After all, not all papers get to appear on the cover of the journal…”

After quietly waiting for Liu Qian to finish, Huo Yao finally said, “Didn’t we agree that we should make Dai Jie the author?”

Liu Qian saw this coming. He replied patiently. “I asked him about it. He appreciates the gesture, but he insisted on keeping your name on the article. In the end, I stuck to your name.”

Huo Yao rubbed her temple with her finger. Since the deed was already done, there was no point harping on the subject. She nodded and returned the journal to Liu Qian. “Got it, Prof Liu.”

Liu Qian looked at Huo Yao with emotions flooding his heart.

He had spent ten years with nothing but bad luck until he finally met her.

“Oh yes. I heard you got promoted, right?” Huo Yao suddenly remembered this.

Liu Qian snapped out of his thoughts and smiled. “Do you know about it already?”

He did not deny the promotion.

Huo Yao raised her brow. “Congrats. Remember to send red packets to the group chat later.”

Liu Qian glared at her. “You really know how to ruin the mood, don’t you?”

Huo Yao replied calmly. “If I didn’t have money troubles, I wouldn’t bother congratulating you, no?”

Before long, Huo Yao walked out of Liu Qian’s office. When she went downstairs, her phone vibrated in her pocket.
