Qiao En tapped his fingers on the table gently. A thought crossed his mind and he suddenly said, "Oh yes. The academic conference is coming up soon. I think you should go and get to know more people. It will help your future."
The moment Lu Xia heard this, the frustration in her seemed to have dissipated temporarily.
She knew about the conference. However, she had only transferred to Slyn University for less than a year, so she did not have the right to attend without making any contributions.
Lu Xia paused before she nodded and said, "Thank you, sir."
"Mhm. Good luck." Qiao En waved his hand at her.
Lu Xia did not mention the thesis again and left tactfully.

Monday.
Huo Yao was called to Liu Gan's office right after lunch.
"Little Huo, let me show you something," Liu Gan said mysteriously as he pulled open the drawer of his desk.
Huo Yao raised her brow. She asked him casually when she saw what he was doing. "Is it a bonus?"
Liu Gan had just picked up a magazine when he heard this. "..."
Did this kid only care about money?
Liu Gan took out the magazine and handed it to Huo Yao. He said angrily, "This issue of the SCI journal is out. I just received it, so I asked you to take a look at it."
"Oh." Huo Yao instantly lost interest, but she still took the magazine from him.
"Your thesis is on the cover. Do you know what it means?" Liu Gan leaned against his desk. He had not calmed down since he received the magazine, so he sounded excited when he spoke.
Huo Yao casually flipped through the magazine. She contemplated Old Liu's words seriously before she replied. "Does it mean the faculty is going to give me a bonus?"
Liu Gan's mouth was wide open, but he couldn't say a word. His expression was as if he was shocked by the answer.
After a while, Liu Gan finally composed himself. His excitement was almost gone. "... Can we not talk about the bonus now?"
Huo Yao shut her mouth.
She felt that Old Liu would probably shut himself up if she spoke again.
Liu Gan ignored the fact that his student was spoiling the mood. He continued to explain, "The theses that are selected by the SCI are the most valuable research theses. Of course, not all theses are qualified to be on the cover …"
Huo Yao listened to Old Liu quietly before she said, "Sir, didn't we agree to put Dai Jie's name on the paper?"
Liu Gan had already guessed that she would ask about it, so he replied, "I asked Dai Jie. He knew about your intentions, but he still insisted that I sign your name, so when I finally submitted it, I still wrote your name."
Huo Yao rubbed her temples with her fingertips. Since things had already come to this, it would be pretentious of her to say anything more. She nodded and handed the magazine back to Liu Gan. "Okay, Sir."
Liu Gan looked at Huo Yao with mixed feelings in his heart.
He had probably used ten years of bad luck to finally have the luck he had today.
"Oh yes. Everyone in the faculty is saying that you are going to be promoted." Huo Yao suddenly recalled this.
Liu Gan came back to his senses and said with a smile, "How can it be that fast?"
He did not deny it.
Huo Yao raised her brow. "Congratulations, Old Liu. Don't forget to send us a red packet in the group to celebrate."
Liu Gan glared at her. "You are such a spoiler."
Huo Yao was very calm. If she was not poor, she would have flattered him.

Before long, Huo Yao left Liu Gan's office. When she went downstairs, her phone vibrated in her pocket.
