Miracle Pill Maker Bullies the Boss - Chapter 540

Chapter 540: How Long Did It Take For Her To Come Up With This

No matter how hard Lu Xia tried, Huo Yao kept stealing the limelight. It was the same, both at school and at the Lu family.

Lu Xia recalled how her biological mother kept asking about Huo Yao’s family and even about Huo Yao. It was simply annoying.

Since she was determined not to get involved with the Huo family, she had had it with her mother’s prying.

Lu Xia wanted to move out of the Lu residence a few times. However, she did not have the courage to do it now that her talent agency had lost interest in grooming her and her career was at a standstill.

The school bell rang. Lu Xia inhaled deeply before putting away the Physics textbook on the table that she had not read a word of.

Shortly after the Math League results were released, the Head of Math, Mr. Fu, hurriedly called Huo Yao to the office.

“Huo Yao, can you tell me how you solved these two questions?”

Mr. Fu taught the Math Experimental Class. He was holding the test paper that Huo Yao did for the Math League.

It was filled with solutions.

Huo Yao saw how excited the teacher was. She coughed dryly before she briefly explained the answer.

Mr. Fu enjoyed doing Math research. After he saw Huo Yao’s script, he learned that her thought process was very different.

The equations were not new, but this method of calculation was very cutting edge and quite similar to the new Math theory that he had been working on for over half a year.

He called Huo Yao over in the hope of getting some inspiration since he had been unable to make any breakthroughs all this time.

After hearing Huo Yao’s thought process, the Math teacher felt enlightened. He looked at Huo Yao and asked her rather curiously. “How long did it take for you to come up with this method?”

Huo Yao was stunned. Should they not be able to solve it with one look?

Was any research needed?

Huo Yao contemplated before she replied. “About one to two weeks.”

Since the teacher asked, she should reply humbly.

The Math teacher instantly went quiet.

About one to two weeks?

In that case, why had he not come up with the answer even after six months?

If the young woman did not look so humble, he might have doubted whether she was out to hurt his pride.

The Math teacher coughed dryly before he walked up to his desk, opened the drawer, and took out a piece of A4 paper. It was printed with Math questions.

He handed it to Huo Yao. “Can you take a look at these questions and help me solve them when you’re free?”

He paused before he added. “Can you do it in a week?”

Huo Yao glanced at the questions on the paper quietly before she replied. “… I guess so.”

The Math teacher nodded happily. “Then give me the solution by next Friday.”

“Uh huh,” replied Huo Yao softly.

In reality, she was fine with giving it to him today after school. Since the teacher looked as though these questions were hard and would take a long time to solve, she decided not to say it.

The Math teacher reminded once more Huo Yao to do them before he dismissed her and sent her back to the class.

Huo Yao bumped into Wei Mingzhe, the Math teacher from the Rocket Class when she exited the office.
