Huo Yao followed Liu Gan back to his office.
Liu Gan placed the document on the desk and stroked the corner with his fingertips. By the time he raised his head, the worry on his face had disappeared.
He looked at Huo Yao and said apologetically, "I'm sorry for what happened today. I didn't expect you to be punished because of this document."
Huo Yao glanced at him and replied nonchalantly. "White can't be black. You don't have to blame yourself."
Liu Gan smiled bitterly.
White could not be black, but what if someone wanted to turn white into black?
He knew that Professor Qi was using this opportunity to humiliate him because he had talked back to him about the research funds. He guessed that Jiang Mingyue was the reason why Huo Yao was involved.
After all, Jiang Mingyue had failed to pick a fight with Huo Yao during the last experiment and ended up getting slapped in the face.
It was normal for Huo Yao to be jealous.
Although Professor Zhao had intervened today, it would only get harder in the future. Liu Gan sighed in his heart. He did not voice his worries and said calmly, "Don't worry. I'm here for you."
Huo Yao raised her brow slightly. "Professor, we can't be too honest." It was easy to get taken advantage of.
Liu Gan was stunned when he heard this.
This was the first time a student had told him that he should not be too honest.
Liu Gan composed himself and smiled. His gloominess seemed to have dissipated a lot.
He recalled the proposal that Professor Zhao had given him two days ago. Although the content was more profound, Huo the assassin was able to defeat Jiang Mingyue. It should not be a problem for Huo Yao to participate in it.
Liu Gan glanced at Huo Yao as he contemplated. Forget it. He would bring it up with her when the preparations were almost done.
Before long, Huo Yao went back to the faculty's study hall.
Yuan Xi had already reserved a seat for her. The moment Huo Yao sat down, Yuan Xi leaned over and asked her softly. "Why has the Academic Affairs Office been calling for you lately? Did something happen? "
Huo Yao tilted her head with a nonchalant look in her eyes. She nodded and said, "To catch a thief."
Yuan Xi widened her eyes in disbelief. "Catch a thief?"
Huo Yao did not say anything else. Instead, she took out a pen and paper and lowered her head to write something.
Yuan Xi was as stubborn as ever. She wanted to ask what kind of thief she was trying to catch, but Huo Yao was ignoring her, so she shut her mouth.
However, when his gaze swept over the symbols she wrote on the paper, he was still a little confused.
Martian language?

At 5: 00 pm, Huo Yao finally put away the stack of papers she had written on the table. She raised her arm to press her aching shoulders and grabbed her backpack.
Yuan Xi stopped studying and packed her books. She had to go home today, so she left the school with Huo Yao.
The car that came to pick up Yuan Xi was parked by the road.
"Sis Yao, where do you live? Do you want me to give you a ride? " Yuan Xi asked as she raised her head to look at the car on the side of the road. However, when she saw the person sitting in the driver's seat, her footsteps suddenly stopped.
She opened her mouth and wanted to take back her words.
Huo Yao did not notice the look on Yuan Xi's face. Instead, she adjusted the straps on her shoulder and looked up to see an ordinary-looking black car driving over. She raised her brow slightly and looked over. "It's okay. The car is here."
Yuan Xi inexplicably heaved a sigh of relief. She followed Huo Yao's line of sight. The front of the car was slightly reflective, so she could not see the driver clearly. She quickly veered her eyes away. "Then... see you tomorrow."
Huo Yao waved at her and walked a few steps forward. After the car came to a stop, she opened the door to the front passenger seat and got in.
