"Pfft." Xie could not help but burst out laughing.
The chief steward was the worst. He was afraid that things would not be exciting enough.
Meanwhile, Lu Xia's face was pale, and she looked dazed.
To be exact, she was stunned from the moment Professor Chao En spoke to her in a respectful tone.
She did not know who Chao En was, but who was he? He was a famous researcher. He was one of the top scientists even in the world. How could such a respected person speak to her in a respectful manner one day?
Not only did he speak to her in such a tone, but he did not even say a few words before ignoring the fact that she was his student. It was as if he would get into trouble because of it.
She thought she had Qiao En's support and that as long as she mentioned her teacher, the Huo family would back off. However, she never thought that her teacher would be the one to back off after encountering the Huo family.
Huo family, Huo family... What exactly was the Huo family?
Lu Xia's head was buzzing. She clenched her fists on the carpet unconsciously.
After a while, she suddenly raised her head and said to Xie quickly, "Professor, are you going to give up on your research?"
Xie was still on his phone. Chao En hesitated for a moment when he heard Lu Xia's words.
Although the Huo family was not to be offended, it was not impossible for them to protect someone if they wanted to.
At this moment, Lu Xia gritted her teeth and said, "Teacher, don't forget who caused all this today!"
Chao En frowned and pondered over the deeper meaning behind Lu Xia's words. He paused for a few seconds before his eyes narrowed. He seemed to have understood something.
The Huo family and the Huo family. Oh right, the special person Lu Xia mentioned seemed to have the Huo family's surname.
He did not know how that girl was related to the Huo family.
Chao En pinched his forehead and quickly weighed the situation in his mind before he said, "I don't know what you are trying to say. I can't help you with the trouble you caused."
Chao En hung up the phone after he finished speaking.
He would not be threatened by anyone. Even if Lu Xia said something to the Huo family, they could not do anything to him.
Therefore, Chao En contacted the person in charge of the base after he hung up.
Lu Xia did not expect Chao En to deny anything. She finally looked hopeless, as if she had been abandoned.
"It seems like your teacher has given up on you." Huo Changfeng smiled faintly.
Lu Xia's face turned pale again.
Huo Changfeng did not want to waste his breath. He waved his hand at Little Xie, who was beside him. "Take him away."
Xie nodded and walked over to Lu Xia. He reached out his hand to lift Lu Xia up.
Seeing this, Lu Xia quickly shrank back and screamed, "What do you want to do? Do you know it's illegal?"
Little Xie looked down at Lu Xia as if he was looking at a fool.
Tsk, she really couldn't even compare to one-tenth of their First Miss.
Xiao Xie shook his head, ignoring Lu Xia's struggle, and easily picked her up.
Lu Xia did not know what the Huo family wanted to do. She panicked and shouted again, "No matter what, I am the adopted daughter of the Huo family. Don't you care about the past? These more than ten years of kinship … "
When Huo Changfeng heard that Lu Xia was still talking about the past, he glanced at her coldly. "Past? Who do you think you are? "
Lu Xia felt as though her heart was being squeezed by his murderous gaze. After some time, she gritted her teeth and sneered. "I am nothing. What about Huo Yao? Who does she think she is? "
