Chapter 1194: Would He Take It Out On Her?

Dai Jie cleared his throat and said, “You don’t get it. The National Research Institute of Science and Technology is full of academic wizards. Even if our project was chosen, we can’t compare ourselves to real professionals.”

He paused before he lamented. “Since the institute has taken an interest in our project, I should feel proud of myself.”

Huo Yao raised her brow. She pulled up a chair and sat down. “Shouldn’t you aim higher?”

Dai Jie smiled and shook his head. He knew himself well. He simply was not good enough. “I think you are our only real hope.”

Dai Jie, Tang Jun, and Wang Jing felt the same way. Huo Yao’s contribution was the sole reason that the National Research Institute of Science and Technology would take interest in their research project. Just the other team members and the teacher alone could never have come up with the AL framework so quickly.

“Everyone has different specialties. You are too modest.” Huo Yao genuinely meant what she said.

Dai Jie’s strength was biomimetic data analytics, Tang Jun was good at genetic screening and Wang Jing had keen insight in genetic molecular architecture. Since they were a team, every single member mattered and contributed by doing what they were good at.

Liu Qian walked into the office while they were chatting. When he saw everyone on the team present, he said, “Let’s go. The car is waiting downstairs.”

Liu Qian quickly went downstairs along with the team.

He had already reported the institute’s interest in the project to the school. Since the Bioinformatics department had not produced any new research project in years, the university took this project very seriously.

The university even made arrangements to assign an external affairs representative to visit the National Research Institute of Science and Technology with the research project team to help communicate with the institute.

Other than Liu Qian, Prof Liu had made arrangements for someone else also to come along with them.

When Dai Jie got into the large MPV and saw the man sitting in the front passenger seat, he frowned. Before getting into the vehicle, he turned to look at Huo Yao.

The person Prof Liu had sent was none other than the head of Biology, Qi Hui.

Dai Jie recalled Mr. Qi getting into an argument with Huo Yao and Mr. Liu over Jiang Mingyue. If Mr. Qi got involved with the project, would he take the opportunity to seek revenge?

Huo Yao caught Dai Jie looking at her in concern, but she simply smiled and got into the car calmly. She did not seem uncomfortable that Qi Hui was joining them as a part of the team.

Since Huo Yao seemed perfectly comfortable, Dai Jie was relieved.

Before long, the car left Tsing University and headed to the National Research Institute of Science and Technology.

Tsing University and the National Research Institute of Science and Technology were some distance apart, and it was a 1.5 hour ride. Huo Yao leaned into the seat backrest and rested her eyes.

Dai Jie, Wang Jing, and Tang Jun kept gossiping about Qi Hui in their group chat, but Huo Yao paid no attention to it.

The car finally arrived at the National Research Institute of Science and Technology around 11:00 am.

A three meter tall robot stood at the institute’s entrance. It was made of special black metal material with a gold metal ball hovering from its palm. The ball spun slowly due to the magnetic field emitting from its hand.

It was clearly made with very advanced technology.

It was Dai Jie, Tang Jun, and Wang Jing’s first time seeing a robot like this, so they were blown away by it.

“I heard that this robot was installed with a smart system and is even programmed to shoot automatically,” said Tang Jun as he looked out of the car window.
