Chapter 923: A Dark Horse

Liu Qian was briefly surprised when Prof Zhao brought up Huo Yao before he nodded.

“How is she doing? Do you know?” Zhao Lian had wanted to see Huo Yao for some time now. She was in military training earlier and then he was held up, so he did not have the chance to catch up with her till now.

Since he had encountered Liu Qian today, Zhao Lian decided to check on Huo Yao.

Liu Qian thought about how Huo Yao surpassed Jiang Mingyue at the laboratory today, making Jiang Mingyue completely speechless. He cleared his throat and said, “She is doing well.”

Zhao Lian raised his brow slightly the moment he heard this feedback. He felt curious. “What do you mean?”

Liu Qian contemplated for a couple of seconds before he told Zhao Lian about the events that had transpired at the laboratory today and added. “I think this young woman is a real dark horse. She can rival Jiang Mingyue if not better.”

Zhao Lian nodded before he lamented. “Her Math, Physics, and Chemistry are very good. Also, she has excellent reasoning. Last year, she participated in the International Quiz Contest and was the champion. Even our professors could only solve the Science questions and come up with the right solution after some time.

Liu Qian normally did not pay much attention to the International Quiz Contest. The moment he heard what Prof Zhao said, he was impressed and said, “No wonder she was able to come up with a 3D model in a matter of minutes without drafting any calculations in the laboratory.”

“A few minutes?” Zhao Lian was shocked.

“That’s right. All she took was a few minutes,” said Liu Qian as he sighed without noticing Zhao Lian’s expression.

Zhao Lian instantly went quiet. Moments later, he said in a stifled tone, “I need at least ten minutes doing 3D modeling. Are you sure she did it in a matter of minutes?”

“It is true. I was standing right behind her. She completed it in a blink of an eye,” said Liu Qian seriously.

Zhao Lian picked up a glass of water and took a sip to calm his nerves. He raised his head to look at Liu Qian. “Why did she end up picking your division anyway?”

Liu Qian went quiet.

Was there anything wrong with Bioinformatics?

“… She opted for Biotechnology, but she did not get a spot there and got automatically transferred to my division.” Liu Qian pondered before he brought this up.

Zhao Lian frowned on hearing this.

He recalled telling Qi Hui to keep an eye on Huo Yao’s admission. However, Qi Hui said Huo Yao was the one who picked Bioinformatics.

Since Liu Qian said she was automatically given a spot in Bioinformatics, it must be true then. Also, Qi Hui was in charge of Biotechnology, so… Zhao Lian narrowed his eyes thoughtfully.

Liu Qian glanced at Zhao Lian and noticed the strange expression on his face. He did not know what Zhao Lian was thinking and ended up asking quizzically. “Prof Zhao?”

Zhao Lian snapped out of his thoughts. He shook his head before he said solemnly, “Since she is now in your division, you should do your best to groom her.”

Liu Qian knew what Prof Zhao meant. “That goes without saying.”

He paused before he stood up and said, “Prof Zhao, if that is all, I will be heading out now.”

Zhao Lian acknowledged him softly. Since he had work to do, he did not continue with the conversation and simply waved his hand.

Liu Qian nodded.

Before long, he went back to the office with the documents in hand.

Shortly after Liu Qian went out of the door, he exhaled deeply. He thought about the division’s research funding while he walked. He intended on taking the lift and going downstairs before heading home, but he decided to press the button for the third floor.

Qi Hui’s office was located on the third floor.
