Wu Yue raised his brow and glanced at Li Chenhui. "Are you missing a word?"

If they were just friends, they would probably try to avoid gossip instead of letting him answer the door directly.

Li Chenhui was at a loss. He did not understand what Wu Yue meant. "What word? What do you mean?"

Wu Yue had a feeling Li Chenhui was destined to be single forever. He simply cast a knowing look at him.

Li Chenhui felt puzzled.

He had an uncanny feeling that Wu Yue was mocking him.

Li Chenhui touched his nose awkwardly. He was unable to figure out what Wu Yue meant, so he could only follow behind him silently.

As Li Chenhui pondered, he failed to notice the expression on Ji Ya's face as she walked behind them. She was at a loss.

To be precise, from the moment Min Yu opened the door, something changed on Ji Ya's face.

Yesterday, at the hotel entrance, she had already seen his face inadvertently. However, she simply thought her eyes had played tricks on her. It seemed inconceivable to run into him.

Now that she had finally seen him face to face, it was proof her eyes were not playing tricks on her.

Ji Ya slowed down as she turned her head slightly to look behind her.

Li Chenhui might not have understood Wu Yue's words, but certainly not Ji Ya.

Did this mean Huo Yao was dating Min Yu?

"What's wrong, Ji Ya?" A student walking beside Ji Ya asked softly when he noticed something amiss with her.

Ji Ya snapped out of her thoughts. She looked at the student and shook her head. "Nothing."

Before long, they entered the room.

Huo Yao had already calmed down when she saw her friends at the door. Other than her slightly pale face, she looked completely normal.

"Hi, everyone." Huo Yao nodded to them.

Ji Ya looked at Huo Yao. "Are you okay?"

"I'm good. Thanks for asking." Huo Yao nodded slightly. Her throat still felt a little hoarse.

"Uh huh." Ji Ya felt relieved. "I'm glad to see you're fine."

Huo Yao smiled. She leaned into the seat backrest and rubbed her forehead gently.

Min Yu did not come over to disturb Huo Yao. He glanced up at Huo Yao and went to pour a glass of warm water.

After handing it to her, he turned to leave.

Huo Yao held the glass of water and did not seem uncomfortable at all. She listened to her senior brothers talk about the academic conference.

Ji Ya looked at Huo Yao every now and then with a complicated expression in her eyes.

She got distracted from the conversation they were having about the conference.

Ji Ya did not stay for long in Huo Yao's room. Also, she had to go back and redo the calculations on the Powerpoint slides with the other Math department students. They did not have much time, so they might have to pull an overnighter for it.

"I thought your slides were done, right? Why are you redoing it last minute?" Ying Qi looked at Ji Ya in surprise as she stood up from the couch.

Ji Ya sighed gently. She replied sadly. "After seeing the presentations done by the students from the other schools, I thought our work was a little long winded. We discussed it and decided to come up with something new."

They had undoubtedly learned a thing or two watching presentations done by the best universities in the world. Even if Tsing University could not be the best among them, it certainly could not be the worst.

Huo Yao knew what Ji Ya meant. She promptly turned to look at Wu Yue. "You sent me a file previously. Did it contain their presentation slides?"
