Yuan Hen composed himself as he recalled the conversation over the phone. After standing there quietly for a few minutes, he left the lab and headed to the administration building to look for Zhao Lian.
In the office.
Zhao Lian poured Yuan Hen a glass of warm water. "I have seriously considered the matter you brought up, so I won't be taking part in it."
Yuan Hen looked at Zhao Lian with a solemn look on his handsome face. "Why?"
Zhao Lian smiled and replied tactfully. "I'm not interested in researching human mutants."
"I'm just taking part in a drug experiment. It doesn't count as researching mutants," said Yuan Hen.
Yuan Hen was interested in Zhao Lian's unique knowledge in the field of biochemical agents. However, Zhao Lian was too stubborn, so Yuan Hen had spent half a year trying to persuade him.
Now that the Institute of Medical Research was conducting a drug experiment, they needed someone like Zhao Lian.
"I'm sorry," said Zhao Lian politely.
Yuan Hen gently twirled the black ring on his left index finger. After a moment of silence, he said, "Okay then. Feel free to contact me if you want to join our project."
Zhao Lian nodded slightly.
Seeing this, Yuan Hen stood up and said, "I won't disturb you any further. You can continue with your work."
Zhao Lian had wanted to ask Liu Gan about the project, but he gave up on the idea. "Okay."
Yuan Hen raised his hand to stop Zhao Lian from seeing him out and quickly left the office. The moment he stepped out of the door, the smile on his face instantly disappeared.
He was really impervious to all kinds of things.
Yuan Hen's eyes narrowed and turned cold. He walked to the elevator and was about to press the button when a voice called out to him from behind.
He turned slightly to look at the person.
"Professor Yuan, when did you get here?" Professor Liu walked over.
Yuan Hen nodded slightly. "A while ago."
Professor Liu smiled warmly and said, "Are you in a hurry to leave?"
Yuan Heng glanced at Academician Liu and pondered for a moment before replying. "Nothing urgent."
Professor Liu's brow twitched as he invited Yuan Hen over. "I happen to have some questions for you. Do you want to come over to my office?"
Yuan Hen twirled his ring habitually and agreed.

Huo Yao returned home from school.
Song Ning and Huo Jinyan had returned to City S two days ago. The moment Huo Yao opened the door, she saw Huo Yulin walking towards the entryway. He was wearing a thick coat and seemed to be getting ready to go out.
"Brother Yulin, are you going out?" Huo Yao blinked as she put on a pair of clean shoes.
Huo Yulin nodded. "I have something to attend to, so I won't be back tonight. Be careful at home."
"Oh." Huo Yao did not probe further.
Huo Yulin took out the car keys from the drawer before he turned to look at Huo Yao. He raised his hand to pat her head and said, "Oh yes. If Brother Yulin doesn't come back in a few days, you don't have to worry. The research institute is quite busy with a project, and they are short on manpower."
Huo Yao recalled that Huo Yulin had been dragged into medical school by his senior after he returned from overseas. She went quiet before she said, "I heard that the research institute has developed a new medicine that can regulate the trace elements in the body."
Huo Yulin's fingers paused for a moment before he retracted his hand. His expression remained the same. "Who told you about this?"
Huo Yao looked at him but did not reply. Instead, she said, "Were you involved?"
