Chapter 1015: Prof Zhao’s Disciple?
Could Qi Hui surpass Zhao Lian?
Even if Qi Hui had the support of Prof Liu, he could not compare to Prof Zhao in terms of authority and reputation in the academic world.
Liu Qian sneered in his heart. After the call got through, he told Prof Zhao about how Jiang Mingyue had stolen Huo Yao’s idea. “… Okay. In that case, I’ll be waiting for you.”
Before long, Liu Qian hung up the phone. Although he was so furious that he nearly exploded, he gradually composed himself after hearing Zhao Lian’s answer.
Dai Jie was gobsmacked when he overheard Liu Qian calling Zhao Lian. Even though he could not hear the other side’s response, he was shocked enough to know Liu Qian had called Prof Zhao.
There were quite a number of professors in the department, but Zhao Lian had the highest authority. Also, all the students idolized him. Dai Jie had spent almost five years studying at Tsing University, but he had only seen Zhao Lian a handful of times and only from a distance.
Dai Jie swallowed nervously as a bold notion arose in his mind and he turned to look at Liu Qian. “Mr. Liu… don’t tell me Huo Yao is Prof Zhao’s disciple?”
Last year, he heard about Zhao Lian wanting to accept a new disciple. Considering Huo Yao’s talent and her performance in the research team, the chances were rather high.
The moment Liu Qian heard this, he went into a brief daze before he said, “I don’t know either. I simply know Prof Zhao and Huo Yao are acquainted. Neither of them has ever mentioned whether she is his disciple.”
However, judging from Zhao Lian’s attitude towards Huo Yao, she was as good as his disciple.
After all, Zhao Lian never cared for interdepartmental conflicts, let alone something like this at the student level.
Dai Jie remained in a daze. Everything seemed so surreal to him.
When they left the laboratory block, he was worried that they would have a hard time at school since Jiang Mingyue was Mr. Qi’s disciple and he was the department head.
Since Zhao Lian and Huo Yao knew each other, Qi Hui was nothing!
No wonder Huo Yao was capable of staying so calm. She had been saving a killer move for this.
Dai Jie instantly felt believed and upset.
It was Zhao Lian!
It was Zhao Lian they were talking about!
Just having the chance to see Zhao Lian from a distance was great fortune!
“So is Prof Zhao going to take care of this?” Even though Dai Jie felt upset, he had to check.
“Uh huh. Prof Zhao is coming over in a minute.” Liu Qian nodded. He pulled out his chair and sat back down with his face looking completely normal.
Dai Jie exhaled in relief. However, a thought crossed his mind and he quickly felt worried again. “We are talking about plagiarism here. Without solid evidence, it is hard to prove it.”
Liu Qian tapped his fingers on the table and suddenly smiled coldly. “Who says she doesn’t have evidence? I witnessed everything!”
Whatever it was, the computer in the laboratory had data records that could make strong evidence for Huo Yao’s case.
Dai Jie looked at Liu Qian in surprise. “You?”
Liu Qian cleared his throat. He did not want to talk about how Qi Hui forced him into helping Jiang Mingyue conduct comparative testing by holding the funding over his head. It was simply too embarrassing.
“I am certain we can find evidence.” Liu Qian waved his hand impatiently. “Enough. You have nothing to worry about. Just go back.”
Huo Yao had the backing of Zhao Lian, but Dai Jie had no one, so it was no point getting him involved..
