Wu Yue nodded. "Uh huh. Why? Do you have any suggestions?"

Ji Ya turned to look at Huo Yao.

"Nope. Senior Brother Ying was right. Other than the slightly complicated method, the work looks good." Huo Yao gave her honest opinion without holding back.

"Advanced Math is just as hard as Physics. Hence, complicated methods can't be avoided," said Wu Yue as he smiled.

Huo Yao raised her brow. They were unable to find the right method, and that's why their method was complicated.

However, she had no intention of making any comments at this point. After all, she was not from the Math department.

"Uh huh. Mr. Wu is right." Huo Yao nodded as if in agreement and patronized.

Ji Ya's friend had come along and she was by the side. She shook her head on seeing this.

It felt as though Huo Yao was just trying to seek attention.

What did she mean by saying the steps were complicated? Anyone was capable of saying vague things like that.

She felt that Huo Yao did not understand the contents of the PowerPoint file at all.

"Ji Ya, shall we head back first? Otherwise, we will really have to work overnight to redo everything." Ji Ya's classmate looked at her without showing any of her true feelings on her face.

She simply did not want to hang around and listen to this bullshit.

"Yes!" Ji Ya turned to look at Huo Yao and the others. She nodded politely. "In that case, I won't disturb you anymore."

Huo Yao nodded. She stood up to walk them out, but Ji Ya smiled and said it was fine.

When they got to the door, Ji Ya turned and glanced back, but the man was nowhere to be seen.

Ji Ya's face turned dark, but she quickly veered her eyes and left the room with the other students.

After the door closed, a few steps away, Ji Ya's friend pursed her lips. "Don't you think Huo Yao is a little… you know what?"

Ji Ya was a little distracted. When she heard her friend, she turned her head slightly. "What?"

"How should I say it? Don't you think she's pretentious?" Ji Ya's friend shrugged.

"Do you think so?" Ji Ya automatically defended Huo Yao. "She has a forthright personality and isn't the insincere sort."

The moment Ji Ya's friend heard what she said, she did not continue speaking ill of Huo Yao. Instead, she reminded her. "You're just too nice. Don't judge a book by its cover. No harm in being warier."

They had already gotten to the lift. Ji Ya replied as she pressed the lift button. "We aren't in the same faculty. I don't see why I have to be careful."

"Who knows, right? That might change one day," said her friend.

"I know you mean well. I will be careful." Ji Ya held her friend's arm and entered the lift.

This was strange. People kept telling her to keep a distance from Huo Yao.

Ji Ya's mother had done the same. Now, Ji Ya's friend also had a bad impression of Huo Yao. She lowered her head looking at her feet as the image of a person emerged in her mind.

**

Shortly after Ji Ya had left, Wu Yue and her senior brothers did not shamelessly hang around either.

"Go and get some rest. I've already spoken to Sirin University about the incident today and have also demanded an explanation from them. Don't worry."

Wu Yue felt worried and was angry just thinking about this.

Huo Yao could have drowned in the lake. If an accident had happened in the afternoon, he would not know how to face Huo Yao's family or Prof Rong.

"I understand." Huo Yao nodded.

Wu Yue looked very apologetic. So, she paused and comforted him. "Mr. Wu, actually I'm a decent swimmer."
