Chapter 883: Dinner At Min Yu’s Place
Ji Ya straightened her body and said powerlessly, “Mom, who do you think they are? Do you think people can come and go freely at their place?”
She just happened to be acquainted with Mrs. Min and both of them had a keen interest in history. Thanks to their common interest, she was lucky enough to enter the Min residence once.
“You are an outstanding girl. Moreover, Mrs. Min seems to have a good impression of you, so…” Song Qi was interrupted before she could finish her sentence.
“Stop it. I don’t want to manipulate anyone. I am an ethical person, so I have my principles.” Ji Ya hated how her mother wanted her to ingratiate herself with the Min family since they were powerful. “I am going back to my room then.”
Song Qi shook her head helplessly. Her daughter might be an intelligent girl, but she was not scheming enough. From the looks of it, it would get her in trouble one day.
“Ya, if you don’t create any opportunities, you will never get to see Young Master Min.” Just as Ji Ya was about to go up the stairs, Song Qi told her from behind.
Ji Ya instantly halted the moment she heard this. She turned to look at her mother with a serious look on her face. “Did you enter my room without permission again?”
Song Qi averted her eyes sheepishly. “I only wanted to help clean up your room.”
Ji Ya rubbed her forehead and stood where she was for some time before she exhaled deeply and said, “I am moving back to school for now.”
The moment she finished her sentence, she veered her eyes and went upstairs.
Song Qi finally snapped out of her shock at the news. “I am her mother. Why can’t I show some concern? How could she throw her temper like this?”
She must have been too indulgent with her daughter recently!

Meanwhile, Huo Yao started to read the past years’ research information after she arrived at the Huo residence. It was a thick stack of documents consisting of yellowed paper.
Most Bioinformatics research covered Molecular Biology, Genetics, and Genome Sequencing. These were the core subjects for Bioengineering.
There was nothing wrong with the direction of the past research. Since none of these theories were fully tested, the theses were eventually thrown out.
By the time Huo Yao was done going over the past years’ research, she concluded that it was going to be challenging to achieve what she wanted.
Her phone was sitting on the coffee table when it beeped with a text notification. She put the documents back inside the manila envelope before she picked up her phone.
Min Yu had sent her a text message asking where she was.
Huo Yao replied: [I am home.]
Before long, Min Yu called her on the phone.
“Do you want to come over for dinner later?” Min Yu’s gentle voice came from over the phone.
“Huh?” Huo Yao thought about Min Yu saying that Old Master Min wanting to invite her over for dinner previously. “I’ll pass. I don’t have time.”
How could she go eat at his place empty-handed?
She was a pauper.
Min Yu raised his brow as he sat in the car and added. “Didn’t you say you like my chef’s cooking?”
“Are you asking me to eat at your place?” Huo Yao finally caught on to this.
“Uh huh. Where else did you think I was talking about?”
Huo Yao cleared her throat. “I think I can probably squeeze a little time to eat.”
Min Yu’s lips twitched, but he simply said, “I will pick you up from your place in around 15 minutes.”
“Sure,” acknowledged Huo Yao swiftly.
Since her third older brother was always out, he hardly ate at home. Hence, she did not have to wait for him to come back for dinner.
A car could be heard honking outside the villa 15 minutes later. Huo Yao had sharp ears, so she caught it right away and quickly went out to see Min Yu.
